HEINIE M ANUSH BEATS BOSTON Veteran Outfielder ( louts Homer In Ninth To Win Game New York, July 14 — (U.R) — Manager Burleigh Grimes grabbed the brae* ring of the major league merry-go-round last winter when he picked up Heinie Manush as a free agent and signed him to play in the Brooklyn Dodger outfield The veteran American leaguer, who clouted the ball at a .331 clip In 14 seasons with Detroit, St. Louis, Washington and Boston, had a bad string of injuries last year, and just couldn't seem to get going He batted only .291 which just wasn't enough to hold him a berth on Tom lawkeys allstar aggregation. The Red Sox asked waivers on the 35-year-old Alabama born player at the winter major league meetings. An American league manager wouldn’t look at Manush, convinced that his active playing days were few It didn’t cost Grimes a dime to sign Manush. and several of the junior loop managers must be kicking themselves today because old Heinie again is smacking the ball around .335. There is nothing like a home run with the score tied in the ninth to make a hero out of a ball player, and that is exactly what Manush did yesterday to install himself even more solidly as the idol of the Brooklyn bleacher ites. It was quite a duel between Max Butcher and Frank Gabler of the Boston Bees with both going the route. A triple by Fletcher, and Garins' single sent the beantown ers into the lead in the third inning. but the Dodgers got that one back in the fifth when Stripp doubled, raced to third on an infield out and tallied on Butcher's long fly. Each pitcher had given up but five hits when the ninth inning came around with the score tied 1-1. Hassett drove a long fly to Johnson who made a sensational catch, then Heinie came through and smacked his game-winning

Right now that's the favorite ‘ 10th hole sport of most of the topranking golf professionals. Because cotton — Henry Cotton —is riding high, and his fellow pros don't like the way that he 1 looks down from the crest of the wave, doffs his topper, adjusts the knot of his old school tie and, in i the clipped voice of Mayfair, says ( I —exactly nothing. I He has cut them dead, and they ■ resent it. They resent his arrival jat tournaments in a Rolls Royce driven by a liveried chauffeur. They resent his refusal to say more than a curt "how do you do.” They resent his intimacy with the lords and ladies of the realm, and the dashing figure he cuts in recognized English They resent these things. I anR afraid, because Henry Cotton right now is about the best golfer in the world. He recently whipped most lof the worthwhile pros in the i game in the British open champ- ' ionship, and yesterday he crushed ! one of the world's finest match | players—Denny Shute of Boston—. 6 and 5 in a 72-hole man to man | battle. Against par or against a I living, talking, walking, breathing j rival he seems to have all the ansI wers. In the British openat Car- 1 ' noustie, with the elements doing I their worst, he fired a final round lof 71. Against Shute, doing his i best, he played 67 holes in 257 , strokes. Par for that number of . holes at Walton Heath, the scene . of battle, is 269. No one has been able to figure I out if Cotton is an unintentional or intentional snob. Is he swag- | gering and aloof because to swagi ger and to be aloof is part of his j natural being and his heritage? He comes of a fine English family, was educated at a fine public I school, and — until the depression necessitated his seeking a trade — was what the English term a “gentleman.” My guess is that Cotton’s “high hat” deportment is part of a shrewdly conceived publicity scheme. His refusal to speak or mingle with his fellow pros, his icy silence while playing, his spectacular arrivals and departures, his tactless remarks concerning .the prowess of his rivals, all smack of a scheme for newspaper prominence.

actions are not natural for a man of Cotton's background and breed- . Ing. A sensitive, finely bred gentleman would not be rude, even to men he considered to be notches below him in social standing. He openly admitted when he turned professional that he was i going into golf to master it and, make money out of it. Wisely he ■ understood that ability, and abil-1 ity alone, would earn him champ-; ionships but not money. Not being blessed with a magnetic per- 1 sonality, he apparently decided i that he would employ snobbishness to call attention to himself. It such was his Man—and I feel sure it was—it has worked well. | Not since Bob Jones and Walter Hagen has a golfer been given such ■ a tremendous play, created so many discussions. Among golfers and golf followers there are two schools of thought. One school is i of the opinion that, personally, he ( lis unbearable. The other argues, that he is one of the finest gentle-1 men ever to grace the game by his presence. There is one item, however, on which all hands agree. And that, is that Cotton, shot for'shot, from tee to cup, is a player worthy to be ranked with the all-time i "greats.” (Copyright 1937 by UP.) I —; O BATTING LEADERS Player Club GAB R H Pct.
