But last year, Stengel was siecondguessed because of his choice of pitchers and pinch hitters. Yesterday it made little difference what pitcher he chose.

Ray Robinson Loses Title To British Boxer London, Jply 11.—(UP)—Husky, dusky Randolph \ Turpin — first British world middleweight chain I ion in 57 years —is contracted to defend his new crown \at NewYork. Sept. 26, against Sugar Ray Robinson, whom Turbin amazingly and thoroughly trounced for the title last night. Pre-fight contracts between Robinson. Turpin and York's International Boxing Club specified Sept. 26. George Gginford. Robinson's manager said today the bout will be staged at the Polo Grounds. ' Turpin, who electrified a sellout crowd of 18,000 in Earls Court arena by winning a lopsided 15lound decision over blood-smeared Robinson, should be an attraction ’n the United States because of hi? aggressiveness, ruggedness an t punch. Robinson had been favored at 4-1 for his first defense, of the 160-pound crowm. — The muscular,.'half-deaf young negro from Leamington, Eng., gave the world’s No. 1 fighter such a beating last night that Sugar Ray was lucky to last the distance. In the 14th round Randy staggered Ray with a left hook to the chip and was battering the nearly helpless negro on the ropes when ♦he bell rang. \ ' i As Robinson suffered the fsiecend defeat in his remarkab.e career of 128 professional bouts, he was bleeding from a deep gash <n his left brow', from his nose and from his mouth. He was gashed by a head collision in the seventh round, . Turpin, 23, and a professional only five years, won so decisively that Americans at the ringside joined British fans in a thundering ovation when referee Eugene Henderson awarded the; decision to ex-sailor Turpin. No judges arc used in English bouts? A concensus of' writers at th 4 ringside scored n\ne rounds for Randy, four for Robinson and two even. The referee’s point score was not announced. Turpin, youngest qf three fighting brothers, became \ the first British-born world middleweight < hampion since Bob Fitzsimmons gave up the crown in 1894 to figh 1 : heavier men.

C.C.'s Stag Golf ’ T' ' ■ ■ tj Tourney Thursday While plans been completedoutlining the play in the annual Chamber of Commerce’s stag golf tourney, Chamber secretary Walter Ford said today that response was only lukewarm from members. Up said several ' unusual means will be employed to assuir' hot tampers and cold scores, bin was somewhat anxious about thp lukewarm attitude after mailing out more than 400 cards to prospective players. < Ford went on to sav that those who have delayed answering are urged to'contact the Chamber office, qr Ben Webster at the Why store or Louis Jacobs at the Hplfj house Drug company and indicate* participation. ~ i The secretary said this was primarily important to the food coup mittee who must make full arrangements for* the Thursday affair. He' stated that no one will be accepted for play later than tonight to as-1 sure fulfilling all agreements, thus urged quick reaction. Then he outlined somewhat th;e chamber's slight deviation frotjn tlje rules. For example, golfers will tee off on number one ho(e atop a car seat. It was not stated whether or noi. the seat would be rocked to and fro to. simulate some of the nearby highway?; nor was the make of the car seat mentioned. However, th|s latter item, it was agreed, is allimportant; a hefty lad Would have too many difficulties with, say, the seat from a Jeep. Then, too. the duffer . . .er, par-i don. the golfer who has little cons-i mand of lop irons might have trouble on the ninth hole. For nothing but irons are to be employed on tie normally discouraging ninth. \ 3 . Golfers participating will tee-off from 12:45 to 2 p.m., according to a previous announcement, and the tourney will be climaxed with prizes and a banquet. But the most important thing, according to Ford, is to contact one of the officials . . . and participate in the annual struggle for Chamber honors. u •— Si V Dodgers, Giants Win This Morning The Dodgers defeated the Cubs. 10-5, and? the Giants poWned the Pirates, 4-2. in summer baseball league games \this morning at Wprthman field.
