OWNER of two great baseball I clubs both headed pennantward one to the ultimate in baseball prizes, the world's cham- * oiunslnp and the other skipping along to the Little World’s series! • Fhece must be quite a thrill in that for genial Colonel Jacob Ruppert. , His New York Yanks, you know. with the American League pennant practically sewed up, are rated as ' jne of the greatest baseball aggre--1 gations of all time. But I imagine that the good Colonel is getting just as much kick out of his Newark Bears, of the International League, ’ end ’heir march to pennantville. Last Winter Colonel “Jake” pur- . chased the Newark Club, with its excellent team and fine stadium, from Paul Block The latter had decided to eleat out of baseball, which had cost him a small fortune It was the Colonel’s idea to make Newark the uivot of the Yankee' farm system Surplus material of] the Yankee organization was sent

Ito Newark and the Bears, a really 11 great team in 1931, despite he fact : that they lost the pennant to Roch ester, were materially strength- ' ened. 1 In Al Mamaux. former big league hurler and at one time famous all over the National League circuit j for his melodious voice, the Bears j had an able manager. Ruppert was , quick to realize Al's capabilities j and knew that with additional tai- | ent —players good enough to be regulars of the Yanks but not sea ] soned enough to replace veterans , -Mamaux eould tuin out a winner. And that is just what has happened, at least it looks so at present writing with the Bears well ( out in front. Newark is all agog over the dos sibilities. If the team should cop, this year it will be the first time I, since 1913 and the second in thirty-1 1 eight years. ; One of the players, sent over to 1 Newark by the Yanks, is Jack Saltz- '
YOUNG COACHES HELP ANDERSON Youngest Coaching Staff In Country Will Assist Notre Dame Coach Notre Dame, Ind.. Sept. 13. —The youngest coaching staff in the country will hep Heartly W. (Hunkl Anderson, head coach, pull his Notre Dame football team through lone of the toughest schedules in I the country this fall. I Three graduates from last year. I all of them all-Americans, and John j tike) Voedisch, who has been an j assistant since his graduation in I 1927. are the boys Anderson is dei pending on to teach his 110 footba I candidates the fundamentals while he is taking up »he large problems of the 1932 campaign. Capt. Tommy Yarr of last year’s team. all-American center; Marchmont Schwartz, left ha'fback, the outstanding player of the year, and all-American in both 1930 and 1931; and Frank (Nordyl Hoffman, a guard and one of’Anderson s' own ; products, are the three youngsters. Hoffman never player football in high school, but he was developed l s well by Anderson that he was I named all-American at the close
I of last season. Both Yarr and Schwartz are 23 ! years old and Hoffman is 22. Jhey will get their first test next Thursday when 110 candidates report for the first drill of the season. ; Since classes start Thursday also, there will be afternoon drills every I day but no morning drills. o Teaching The teaching profession, declares Calvin T.

gaver, youthful infielder acquired f roir. the Coast League. The young ster ha been performing in fine style and is one of the reasons why the Bears are going places. Don Brennan, who compiled a winning streak of twelve consecutive games, is another reason. Don is miles out in front as the best winning pitcher in the International League. He is almost a sure shot to move over to New York with the Yanks in 1933. and he has an excellent chance of making the grade in the big show. . _____ Another star of the Rears is Fred Walker, lanky son of Dixie Walker Fred is doing a bang-up job in the outfield and has been belting the apple at a 350 gait He undoubtedly will be with the Yanks when they leave for the training field next spring Well, it appears that the Good •Colonel has picked another winner C»wn«la l*lt Sl*s Swlurw SyoUlesw In.

JOHN FISCHER LEADS GOLFERS ■ ■ I Kentucky outh Leads Qualifiers In National Amateur Tourney Baltimore Country Club. Md.i Sept. 13 <U.R>- Today s hero of (lie V. S. Amateur Gold champion I ship was Johnny Fischer, of Fort I Thomas. Kentucky This 150-pound six-footer who| holds the American intercollegiate | championship set out with 1->D others to complete the qualifying I rounds of the 1932 national tour nament. His score of 69 for the; first qualification round was just three strokes better than those of his nearest rivals, and only a golfing miracle In reverse could him from rating a place in Wed-, nesday's match play. All but overlooked when the choices for top honors were being , made, the sandy-haired Fischer. played the five firms layout in the daring style which won him the college crown along with many another title of lesser consequence ! He cut corners. He tried fori distance out of the rough where! his rivals played in safety, and he| went after his long putts where some of the others were content' to come close on the approach and I to go down on the second bang at the hole. Today’s second and final quail- ‘ fieation round found tnanv of the. pro-tournament favorites already 1 on the outside looking in at the | boys who will rate places in match play. Francis Ouimet of Brookline, Mass., defending cham i pion, could do no better than 78 in his first tour. Others of Ouimet's "border line" ! class included Tony Torrance of • England, with 80; Eric Mi Ruvie. | who, like Torrance was a member. of the British Walker cup team! with 79; John De Forest.
