Hul ls Good itall.
Thus ended a perfectly good ball
game. Ii ended just right for the fans
anil, taking everything as a whole,
O'Connors homer was the end of a
perfect day for Nick Cullop, too. Nick
wns on the firing line for the herd
and .did right well, lie was a little
wild, but he kept Oklahoma City's five
hits well scattered. Cullop also whiffed
six Indians, some of these whiffs
coming at the opportune times for the
Buffaloes.
George Payne was Manager I.uder
us' choice for slab duty and George
didn't do anything to be ashamedvof.
He hurled good’ball and shouldn't feel
downhearted just because O'Connor
beat him out of a victory. The Buffa
loes deserved to win. They played a
little better hall than the visitors
and outhlt the Indians, collecting 10
hits, of which one was a homer and
five were doubles, while the southern
ers chalked up five hits, among them
a home run, triple and a pair of
doubles.
Oklahoma city started out like they
were going to run the Buffaloes out
of their own hack yard. Felher walk
ed and I.uilerus cracked out. a home
run over the right field fence. Oma
ha tied it up in their half of the third
when Cullop singled, went to third on
O'Connor's single to right and scored
when Tate was throwing Apperson
out at first, O'Connor took third on
this infield play and scored o minute
later when DeKate got on first on a
fielder’s choice. Thai evened matters
up and things looked much better for
the herd, thanks to Cullop and O'Con

The Buffaloes came back In their
half of the fourth and took the lead

Jimmie Johnston Considered One
of Best All-Around Golf Players
KW YORK. April 28.—Harrison R (Jimmie) Johnston of
St. Paul, though he has never won an important golf
tournament in the United States, is considered one of the
best all-round players among the Americans seeking
laurels in the 1923 amateur events on British links.
Expert with all clubs, Johnston, however, has his
“off days” on the links. When at the top of his game,
lie has proved a stumbling block on more than one cc
casion, to championship aspirants. A fatal habit of
hooking has cost him several chances to reach heights
of fame, aithought he has on various occasions tri
umphed over most of the leading amateurs in the
country.
it was an unfortunate hook that probably cost
Jimmie his title chances in the l'*L'l amateur event at
St. J.Ouis. After downing the redoubtable Francis Ouimet
the day before, .Johnston encountered Jesse Guilford,
th** Boston "seige gun.” He was going strong until the
3.1d hole, when a 300-yard drive, 50 yards in front of
Guilford's shot, left the Minne
sotan in front of a tennis rourt
netting Ho failed to clear this ob
stacle and upset his game by the loss
of the hole. Guilford went on to win
and gained the championship by de
feating VBob" Gardner in the final
round.
Johnston’s game hus been hanJi
raped for several years by the »f
feets of hi* having been gassed in
the war. After returning from
France It was some time before he
eoutd lift a club to his shoulder, but
by sheer force of will he has recov
ered his style. He Is one of the
longest drivers in the game.

New York Giant Recruit Wanted
Permission to Lick Teammate
Clinton Blume, Colgate College Pitcher, Asked “Muggsy”
McGraw for Chance to “Wallop” Player Who Delight

B.v JOHN MrOR.WV.
Manager World’s ( hajiipjon liiants.
AN T have your
perim isflon to
lb kone of your
players? Will
you grrant It?"
Thus was I
iri ee'eil by one of
my youngsters
last fa!!.
"Why. my boy
what's the trou
ble? What is the
cause of your re
quest? 1 thought
you was getting
along nicely w,'h
> ail yotft- fellow
' -
r.lied kindly. “They s^-rt* to like ’
> ou."
"Well, he answered, ‘1 guess most
i*i them 4i. Thei »* ;m on* though who
appears to delight in nagging ine. I
just wnnt to Uck him. I have the
idea ‘he would have more respect for
for me if 1 did."
“You may he right I said. “I like
your spirit* I had to go through the
ime exj-rie «e w hen I started to
P4a> ball, prt ) ably somewhat rougher
than yours you had better call it off.
What if ho whipped you? Have you
thought of that angle?"
"No, I have not." he answered. "I
know l can lick him. even if he is*
older and bigger than I ‘
lias Plenty Pluck.
I admired the youngster’s pluck He
was one of my f-wn heart, but I replied*
“It would hardly do for a manager to i
sin up i feud in this team. It might
cause dissension. I think it the bet
ter way to have fhe incident closed.’*
He thanked me. but I could see
lie was disappointed.
The fellow who wanted to fight his
why through, if necessary was Clin
ton Blurne. the Colgate college pitch
n. who joined the Giants after his
graduation last year.
After that convet Ration with Blutne,
I made up my mind to pay particular
attention to him and to ace that he
tereived proper coaching. This h*
has had and haa taken go<jd advantage
of it.
Blurr.e is a college fellow, who.
while with his varsity team possible
did not appreciate h;s shortcoming*,
being its.* rated with player* who
were in h.* class as an amateur. He
soon found them out though when
he went through his bench educa
tion with the world's champions.
Won Hi* Game.
That he has benefited by it. I wa*
made aware of during the game he
pitched against the Boston Braves
this spr.ng when I sent him to the
box to relieve Teas Borne*. He had
the most difficult task any pitchir
either a ve'eran or youngster can li
ra lied on to face. The bases were
full, with none down and the oppe
in* teem wa* in the mMst of a bai
ting rail} Blume wa* equal to the
burden Me catne out 'With flying
colors d won hi* first game of the
championship season, handily. He
has a real curve, has Control of 't
and know.* when to use it.
An incident during the game inter
ested me exceedingly. It showed he
was game. Hi* catcher walked once
to the box to tell him some fault he
showed With his last pitched bad.
Blume said "Now Frank you did not
have to come away over here to te'l
me that. I know t pitched wrong
that time to the hatter. I shall not
do it ag.un. I thank you just the
same"
ioting Blume. 1 feel confident,
will lie a big asset to hi# club and
team Hf is amicus to learn, dp,*
aid ..is. remember* the instructions
g.ven hint. That is sure to make
him.
