GOLF ACES GATHER AT WORCESTER TO STRUGGLE FOR NATIONAL TITLE

J3IG FITZ DAZZLES MUDHENS Mishawaka Marvel Allows Only Two Hits —Blanks Toledo Until Eighth. Big Boy Fitz, the husky lad from Mishawaka, occupied the limelight at Washington Park Monday and the fans saw some brilliant pitching. The Indians beat the Hens, 3 to 1, in the series opener and Fitzsimmons allowed only two hits For seven innings the Hens were knocked off in one, two, three order. Webb reached first base in the fifth when he was struck by a pitched ball, but the next man hit into a double play. Only twenty-one batsmen faced the Tribe hurler in seven innings. That) One Hen Run In the eighth Webb “bled’,’ a single over second and Scldtetmer followed with a “legit” to right center after Nicholson fanned. Webb reached third on the Schliebner drive and the latter raced to second on the throw-in. Schulte grounded to Yoter and ■schliebner advanced to third. Napier batted for English and was thrown out on a dazzling play by Schreiber. It was the Hens’ only rally, and Fitz out them down quickly in the ninth. It was one of the best pitched games of the season in_the A. A., even though the visitors were not shut out. Home Run Hodapp! For the Indians, Johnny Hodapp, Cincy kid, drove in three runs, two in the opening stanza, and in the sixth he poled a heme run. The Tribe got only six hits off Lyons, Christenbury two, Yoter two and Hodapp two. Frank Henry, southpaw, was elated to do the twirling for the Bushmen this afternoon and Robertson was to receive him. Catcher Krueger is not in the best of condition at present as a result of a wry neck. Jonnard was the probable pitching choice for Toledo today. WASHINGTON PARK NOTES ——l ONDAY was “ladies’ day” and there was a h'eavy run on the * Vi l free gate. The “heighth” of something occured when two fair fans taxied to the park and then “crashed” the gate. Schreiber and Schinandt played fancy ball in the field for the home #rew. Other sparkling plays were jirned in by Yoter and Hodapp. A strong wind checked fly balls and players on both teams were forced to do much running. Yoter went to the right field foul line once and snared a twister. Robertson caught Fitz in swell style. The Tribe hurler had terrific speed. Murray and Connolly, two vets, are umpiring the current series. mYVO regular fans passed a truck of barrels on the way to the park and “wished” the luck of ,the barrels on the home team. Nicholson, in center for the Hens, had six putouts. Fitzsimmons fanned three and did not issue a pass. Eddie SicJdng gradually is improving in health. When Eddie returns to the line-up it is likely Yoter will, be stationed in the outfield. Christenbury poled two clean drives Monday, one for two bases. Only one visiting player was left on base. The Indians had five stranded. Two Hen errors helped the Ttibe fill the bases in the fifth, but a timely hit was lacking. Christenbury backed against the fenpe to take Strand’s long drive in inning. Not many runs in the ball game .Monday, but plenty of "runs” elsewhere in the park—women running through the pass gate and plenty of “runs” in feminine hosiery. CHICAGO TENNIS WINS By United Press CHICAGO, June ft..— The University of Chicago tennis team trounced Ohio State five matches to two here Monday, winning three singles and two doubles.

GIBBONS IN NEXT FEATURE Tunney and Tom in Spotlight —Other Outdoor Shows Just Ahead. By Times Special NEW, YORK, June 2.—Gene Tunney and Tom Gibbons will now scamper into the circle of the spotlight and perform their number! billed as an athletic act, although many of the experts believe it will 1 be another song and dance. The Tunney-Gibbons fight next Friday night ranks as the most important of the program thus far arranged for the outdoor season, be.cause the winner probably will clamor for a match with Jack Dempsey, ignoring Harry Will 6, who refused to fight either Tunney or Gibbonsv With shrewd management, the winner might be able to land the next Dempsey bout, if Dempsey ever fights again. Inasmuch as the Berlenbach-Mc-Tigue fight for the light heavyweight championship, a dreary bout between the inferior scrappers for a trick title, drew $173,000, the fight next Friday night should draw a capacity crowd. One week later Mickey Walker will try to claw the middleweight championship from Harry Greb on the same field, the Polo grounds. This is only the semi-wind-up of the Wills-Weinert affray, but it is far more Important than the main event. New York fight customers believe Wills is fighting a set-up. And if Welnert should manage to last fifteen rounds it will only Indicate that Wills is worse than most people believed, as Tunney once knocked out Weinert, and Greb gave him a beating.

This much was shown clearly Monday swhen an exhausted Babe had to be taken out In the sixth inning of his first game of the season. The confinement of fix weeks In the hospital had so weakened the Babe that he collapsed in trying to make the circuit from first base home on a triple by Bob Meusel. Makes Circus Catch In the fifth lnnning he made one of the greatest catches ever seen in the Yankee stadium when he ran far up on the mound in right center field and pulled down a long drive from the bat of Joe Judge. He fell and rolled over and over down the hill, but kept his hands on the ball. That finished the Babe. He went home. A great crowd was gathered outside the clubhouse door when the Babe departed. Half a hundred little urchins were around with pencil stubs and pieces of paper asking “gimme a autograph, Babe?” ”1 won’t get strong sittln’ on a chair,” the Babe said. “I gotta get out there and get goln’.’’ Johnson’s Fast One “One thing that pleased me was that I still got the old eye. It was tough for me to be shoved in against Walter Johnson. You think he still ain’t got a fast one? Well, you stand up there and look. "Well, I took a cut at the first one and connected, even if it was a bounder to the box. I saw it, but I swung late. “The second time up I made ’em talk it over. Johnson had me two and two when I knocked a foul in the right field bleachers. It was just foul by an inch.” With Ruth b§.ck in the game—even though his physical assistance may not be great for several weeks —the Yankees may snap out of their slump. They are now on a losing streak of five games and are a half game out of the cellar.

Jones Attracts Large Following Dur- • % ing Practice—Championship Play Wednesday and Thursday. Bu United Press "WORCESTER, Mass., June 2. Worcester’s great fairways swarmed with the pick of the country’s golfers today, tuning up for the national championship which begins Wednesday. Bobby Jones, youthful Georgian, drew the largest gallery and bids fair to start a favorite for the title.

The chknces are that MacDonald Smith, who led the field of fifty-eight Eastern qualifiers at Lido last week and Walter Hagen, always a good bet, will be favored by many. None overlooks Bill Mehlhorn who is as hard to beat when right as his name la to spell. The Westerner is likely to slip through with a winning low score if the other favorites falter or fortune is Unkind to them.. Title play Wednesday and continues through Thursday with the best medal score for four rounds being crowned 1925 open champion. So fraught are the local fairways with surprises; that some golfer still comparatively unknown may. slip through to victory.
