CHILDREN will fret, often for no
S apparent reason. But there’s al- |
ways Castorial Harmless as the recipe |
on the wrapper: mild and bland as it
tastes. But its gentle action soothes |
a youngster more surely than a more |
powerful medicine.
That’s the beauty of this special |
children's remedy! It may be given
the tiniest infant—as often as there
is need. In cases of colic, diarrhea or
similar disturbance, it is invaluable.
A coated tongue calls for just a few
drops to ward off constipation; so
does any suggestion of bad breath.
Whenever children don’t eat well,
don't rest wells or have any little
upset—this pure vegetable prepara-
tion is usually all that’s needed.

weight Champion Bat Battalino
$40,000 to detfnd his title
against Mastro in event the Chi-
cagoan wins his bout with Fidel
La Barba at Chicago Stadium,
Aug. 11.
“We won't claim Mastro is
the best featherweight in the
world until he tries tils skill
against Kid Chocolate, but
we're willing to pay $40,000 for
a crack at Battalino’s title,"
said Winch. "If Earl wins he’d
defend the title against Choco-
late, or if the Cuban is willing
we'll meet him first."

At the Shreveport Country
Club the pro said the members
all knew about the tourney and
some of them had said they

were being made by outstand-

to come. Everybody said if Ossie
Carlton did come he'd probably
cop the mustard because he cer-
tainly was socking the agate just
about now. Ossie was out in 35
on the Country Club the other
day, then went plumb haywire
and shot a string of birds that
took him to 18 with a short putt
for a 30 and a 65. He missed the
putt and had to be content with
a new mark of 66 on the tough
course.

I've been peeking around at
the game on this trip. Not back
on my drive, but hitting the
ball good enough to make me
hope I'm coming around after
my severe golf sick spell. Still
slicing, but not bad and begin-
ning to get some distance. Irons
off a little, but getting better
every time I play. Was rather
proud of a snappy 84 over the
Brackenridge course here—and
had an eight on No. 15, where I
hit two in the river.

FOR TITLE BOUT
Waco May Take Squabble
To Judge Landis
The squabble over the deal
which brought Pitcher Henry
Thormahlen to the Fort Worth
Panthers from the Waco Cubs
for a consideration of $10,000
cash will probably be taken be-
fore Judge Landis for settlement.
This seemed possible when
Waco officials demanded the sec-
ond installment of the cash price
which Ted Robinson of the Fort
Worth club refused to pay.
Thormahlen has proved unsat-
isfactory since joining the Cats.
It has been revealed that the
pitcher was in the hospital when
the locals purchased him and has
never fully recovered from the
Injury sustained in a game be-
tween Waco and Houston.

WHISKERY AGAIN
LOSES CASH FOR
HIS FOLLOWERS
By United Press.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1—Whiskery,
U the horse which ruined nu-
merous bookmakers with his
1927 Kentucky Derby victory,
is repaying the bookies for
their losses and continues to
cost his public money whenever
he goes to the post.
Whiskery’s public, forgetting
he haa scored only one victory
since he won the derby, made
him a 2 to 1 favorite in yester-
day’s Glen Ellyn purse at Ar-
lington and lost their money
when he met his 26th defeat in
27 starts since his derby tri-
umph.
Macedon, a $7.50 to $1 long-
shot, came up from last place
at the head of the stretch, to
beat Whiskery by a head.
many country clubs I know. Fair-
ways are really excellent all the
way around while the greens are
perfect. How a course can be so
well kept under the punishment it
gets Is a mystery to me. Yester-
day morning there must have
been a hundred people playing on
the course and none of 'em look-
ed like golfers—even the Great
Adam Dubb. - 1 ,
Yet the fairways were re-
markably free from bad scars,
were soft and well sodded and
the greens were just about per-
fect. I think the course needs
only one thing now to make it
compare with most country
clubs and that's grass tees.
They tell me you can't have
grass tees on a muny course,
but they usta say you couldn't
have grass greens and fair-
ways.
EVERY time I look at this beau-
D tlful Brackenridge course and
what an asset It Is to this city and
lovely Brackenridge Park, I can’t
help but think what a bet we're
overlooking in Trinity Park.
