Thirteen fines, eight of them
traffic cases, were imposed in Cor-
poration Court during the past
week that climaxed with the court’s
regular session Monday morning.
The fines, levied by Mayor J. L.
Wright, totalled $105;
Eight pleas of guilty to speeding
drew $5 fines and in each case,
four pleas of guilty to drunken-
ness drew $13 fines and a’ plea
of guilty to theft under $5 drew
a similar fine.
Eight other speeding cases re-
mained to be disposed of after
the morning session, and in sever-
al cases, where the defendant
charged had not appeared nor tele-
phoned the mayor to explain the
failure to appear, police planned
to secure warrants during tjhe
day, they said.
A number of tickets were writ-
ten over the week-end on double
parkers and fire lane violators, it
was learned, but police said they
were all out-of-town cars tagged
and the drivers did 'not appear
in court Monday.

BLACK-DRAUGHT
Next Time You
Need a Laxative
For constipation, take a dose of
Black-Draught as soon as you realize
the condition you are in.
“If I am bilious, have headache or
a cold, I take a dose of Black-Draught
at night,” writes Mrs. R. D. Thaxton,
of Lexington, Ga. “If I have a bad
feeling after meals, I take just a
pinch of Black-Draught. It relieves
me. I recommend it very highly—a
good family medicine. I give my
children Syrup of Black-Draught. I
find, both good.”
Black-Draught paves the way for
the relief of many such symptoms as
those mentioned above, when con-
stipation is at the bottom of the
trouble.
Just try it! Follow the directions
carefully and you’ll probably learn
why Black-Draught is so popular.

When batting might hooks up
with pitching strength on the same
baseball combination, fireworks are
the general result.
That’s the answer to the current
pell-mell parade of those climbing
Chicago Cubs, now riding high, wide
and handsome on top of an 11-game
winning streak, longest run in the
big leagues this season.
The big question mark now is:
Can they continue, away from Wrig-
ley Field, as they’ve done at home?
They start the Eastern swing to-
morrow, and . thereby probably
hands their hope for catching up
with the ' pace-setting St. Louis
Cardinals by July 4.
The long successful home stand
ended yesterday with frank De-
maree’s two homers accounting for
all the runs as the Boston Bees fell,
3-2 and Lon Warneke chalked up, Miami, Fla.
his third win of the victory streak, I
his second straight seven-hitter in
five days. >

The Dallas Steers, who were win-
ning games with such regularity sev-
eral weeks .ago that it appeared
they would run away with the Tex-
as League bunting, ‘ were holding
for dear life to their lead over the
other clubs today.
The Mauling Mavericks—the ap-
pellation, it seems, has lost its sig-
nificance of late—have dropped
three games in a row as Beaumont’s
fast-stepping Exporters, who are
burning up the league, have won as
many consecutive games.
Beaumont ’ dropped the
twice yesterday, 3 to 1, and 7 to 6,
to reduce the Dallas nine’s advan-
tage over them to but .two games.
The murders’ row of Dallas was
putty in the hands of “Slick” Coff-
man of the Shippers in the first
game. Coffman allowed but four hits
as Beaumont collected 11 off Sal
Gliatto, a Dallas mainstay.
In the second game, the Steers
were coasting along with a five-run
lead in the final inning when Beau-
mont broke loose with a vicious
barrage that netted them six runs
»and the margin of victory.
I The luckless Houston Buffs,
bumped about roughly since they
were dislodged from their place at
the top of the league some weeks
ago, dropped the series opener to
Oklahoma City’s Indians, 3 to 2,
and were thereby pushed into fifth
place—out of the first division. Dick
Whitworth held the Buffs* to six
blows. I
Fort Worth took San Antonio in-
to camp, 7 to 4, with the aid of
three doubles, a triple and three
San Antonio errors.
Galveston’s Buccaneers made
more runs than they had in any
single game this year when they
scored 10 to Tulsa’s 6. The Pirates
enjoyed a 13-hit rampage.

noon for the locals’ first defeat

Brothers O. and D. Pearson were

four errors slip by, while they were
unable to account but for six hits
off Pate, Fort Worth twirler.

St. Louis Holds Lead
The triumph, however, didn’t cut
down the St. Louis 3 1-2 game lead
even a fraction. The Gas House
Gang hooked up in a wild slugging
spree with the Phillies and came
out on top 12-10, as Dizzy Dean, go-
ing to work with only 24 hours’ rust,
went in as a relief pitcher to end
the game.
The two leaders pulled away from
the third place Pirates, as the New
York Giants snapped their own
five-game losing streak and the
Bucs’ seven-straight winning run
at the same time, with Hal Schu-
macher turning in a five-hit per-
formance for an 8-0 edge. Winding-
up the league program, the Cincin-
nati Reds climbed to a .50Q aver-
age for the campaign by trimming
the Dodgers, 5-1, on the strength
of Lee Stine’s four-hit hurling job.
With the Yanks-Tigers and St.
Louis-Boston battles rained out, the
American League saw the Athletics
knock the Indians into fourth place
with an 8-6 victory, advancing De-
troit to third, while Vernon Ken-
nedy’s tight pitching gave the
White Sox a 6-4 margin over the
Senators.

DALLAS, June 15.—(A3)—This,
briefly, concerns the tale of two
rather large feet • ■ Two pedal
extremities that plodded a long,
rocky road before they, planted
themselves in the velvet.
Golf experts tell you it takes
large feet to be a championship
player . . . Don Schuma(cher,
stubby, care-free. Dallas young-
ster, qualifies . . You might say-
in a big way . . For years he
has shuffled over many courses,
grinning while his friends chided
him about the length and breadth
of his feet.
Don, Texas’ new amateur golf
champion, cares little about the
chiding today . . Limping around
on feet that aiched after being
pinched in the broiling sun by a
new pair of shoes, Schumacher
buried Bill Sketters, former S. M.
| ( U. grid star, 8 and 6, in the finals
g! Saturday at San Antonio.
11 Back in 1932, Don started at-
11 tracting attention by breezing to
I j the finals of the state junior tour-
j I nament ... It wasn’t quite his
d time, however, and he Host the
II title to Jack Lee of Orange.
I In 1933, Don played one of the
J i greatest tourney matches on record
a; in Texas golf ... He bumped
i in exactly eight birdies in a seml-
—and lost on the third extra hole | Irvey, If
. . . Next year ."’Z, ,
was his, however, and he’s been Trutt, ri
hot after the senior title since. Patp n
Only 20, Don is a popular cham-
pion . . Well liked by everyone
and a golfer the pros say “swings
just like Bob Jones,’’ the boy
with big feet has arrived • • In fact!
he arrived with the gallery at the
state tolrney even before match
play had started . . After a par
■ 72 in the qualifying round, Don
" hastily jerked off his new shoes
at the home green and walked lei-
surely to the dub house barefoot-

The Denton County Singing

of out of the county singers are
expected.
fiopperoo. . . Not only is the tem-
peramental South Carolinian in
bad with his teammates because of
those blasts about poor support, but
the first division clubs have cooled
off. . . They are a bit leary of tak-
i ing on an athlete disloyal enough
to walk out on another club. . . Be
it. said to the credit of the Dodgers,
they didn’t yield an inch. . . And
Shorts: Demoran Rayne for
club in the Evangeline League, toss-
ed a perfect game for 9 and 2-3
innings. . . Then three opposition
batters singled to win the game, 2-
0. , . Harry Cooper knows just how
the kid felt. . . Why has nobody
grabbed “Nim” Newberry, who only
batted .482 for Oklahoma City Uni-
versity last season? . . . That is
busting the apple in any league. . .
North Caroline State got even with
Duke when Hunk Anderson beat
Wallace Wade at golf the other
day. . . Those who have heard him
say it’s a good thing Joe Louis can
fight better than he plays the har-
monica. . . Joe McCarthy labels
Lefty Grove the No. 1 pitcher in
the American League this year. . .
Nothing in a name, eh? . . . Well,

tossed the javelin 177 feet for a
