IRjRASSIE raIRDIES • V* By DICK MILLER

SHE club championship qualifying round, scheduled for next Saturday at the Indianapolis Country Club, has been postponed until Sept. 4 by the sports and pastimes committee. Thus ail match play dates will be set ahead one week. The entire shift was made due to the fact that the western open will be on at Highland. • * * Looking over, the list of entries at the western and their starting time it would seem Indianapolis and Indiana boys are going to have a "do tell” story *to relate Friday night. It is no hidden fact that when you play these days before 10 a. m. you are adding probably six to ten strokes. It would seem some of the national stars would be better players to battle nature’s elements. But they are all scheduled to start around noon. * • • W. E. Balch, manager of the Merchants’ Association, in today’s bulletin calls to the attention of the association members the greatness of the western open tournament to Indianapolis. Prominent mention of the tourney in all ads, and prominent and clever window displays are requested as proper cooperation with the Highland Golf and Country Club members who took the gamble and brought the meet and its big expense of promotion, including the big pros, to a place where the Hoosiers can see plenty of golf for three days, with but four \“bucks” and war tax.

NATIONAL PROVIDES THRIILLS St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Cincy in Battle for Lead —Cards Favored. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—Approaching the home stretch in the National League pennant race, w-ith a blanket ccAering the leading St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Cincinnati clubs, the dockers are sitting on the rail waiting for one or more of the clubs to crack. Experience doesn’t count any too much, as the Pittsburgh Pirates have only a year on the Reds and the Cardinals. The winner will be the team that can stand the gaff. Many wise baseball men, including John McGraw, have been watching for Rogers Hornsby's club to fold up under the strain, but the Cardinals have been playing better ball day by day with splendid pitching, inspired fielding and savage hitting. The Cards are in the midst of a spurt that gave them sixteen out of eighteen games and the predicted collapse of the team looks far removed. Reds Come Back l Jack Hendricks and his Reds seemed to be out of the running after the disastrous eastern invasion, but the team went back home and ran up a string of nine straight, coming from behind to win most of their games. The Pirates survived internal dissension that resulted in the fining of several stars and the firing of Eddie Moore, Max Carey, Babe Adams and Capson Bigbee, but they are still hanging on. The big break may come next week when the Pirates go to St. Louis to open one of the most .m----portant series of the year, and the advantage ought to be with Hornsby’s club, as they will be in familiar surrounding with St. Louis yelping for fts first National League pennant. Until Last Week? The battle may continue until the last week of the season and the championship may be decided by one game, as it was in the American League several years ago when the St. Louis Browns were beaten out by the Yankees by a stroke of a mathematical pencil. Betting and general opinion here favors the Cardinals to outlast the Pirates and the Reds because the club has more all-round strength than the Reds and better morale than the Pirates. The Cards, however, have eight games to play with the Pirates and four with the Reds and the Reds have five more games with the Pirates. And the three teams have another eastern trip to make. RINGSIDE ORDER Bn United Press PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 25.—Gov. Pinchot has ordered 200 ringside seats from Tex Rickard for the pempaey-Tunney fight in the Sesquicentennlal stadium. Sept. 23.

Darcy holds a point decision over Wallace and the local fistlcuffer Is out to erase that mark on his record.

At any rate, the match looks like a sure-fire “crowd pleaser.” There will be four other bouts on next week's Army bill. Big attendance turned out last night to view the action In the bowl” and the scraps were well received. The bowl was nearly filled. The Times’ decisions on the conflicts follow’: Merle A’te. Indianapolis, won on point* over Harry Forbes. Coiambus, Ohio, in fen rounds. Louie Lavelle. Anderson, ontpolnled Sidney Glirk. Indianapolis, in ten rounds. Frankie Jones. Louisville, shaded Six Second Smith. New Albany, In six rounds. Buttling Rudd. Terre Haute, had the better of Johnny Hannison, Akron, Ohio, in six rounds. Soldier Shannon. Ff. Harrison, won by teclintral k. o. over Major Howard, Lafayette, in the second round. Alte gained a victory over Forbes because he landed the stiffer punches. And he was the stronger in the clinches. Forbes did not appear to have a sting to his blows. The Ohio lad was outweighed, but got a left hand In occasionally that Merle failed to brush aside. When rallies were staged, however. Merle’s superior strength forced Forbes to give ground. Lavelle outpointed Glick In nearly every round. Louie stung Sidney early and kept throwing an overhand left that bothered the local boy. This scrap gave the fans action. The Budd-Hannison bout was the best of the prelims and the crowd applauded both fighters.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Monday, started right out to take the match on the greens. Mrs. Lee Mida, her opponent who shot 80 to qualify and who this year boasts of eleven course records, was ahead off the tee. Naomi was one up when Mrs. Mida’s putt rimmed the cup on No. 9 hole. Good Iron Game By playing a stellar game with her irons, Miss Hull was always on the green with her opponent and picked up another hole on twelve, where Mrs. Mida, again took three putts. She lost one on fifteen, but sank a twenty-foot putt on hole seventeen to cinch the match, 2 up and one to play. The play Tuesday was a contrast to Monday, with the raincoats and sweaters missing and in their places frocks of all colors. Tuesday was given over' to the players In the second flight, in which I am paired, to practice putting and to playing off the tie scores. Matches started today in that flight and I hope to win it, now that I one-stroked myself out of the championship flight. The flight 19 known as the Olympia Fields flight. Mrs. A. A. McClamrock and Miss Mary Gorham, both of Frankfort, Ind., are in flight 3, thus making all the Indiana players qualified in the prize lists. Long Drive I was made happy Tuesday when it was told that of the 14a players in the meet Monday, and against the driving rain, I was the only player of 145 entrants who drove over the ditch on the second shot on holelß. Now that Miss Hull has startled Chicago golfdom, we are all pulling for her to continue her good game. Another hope is that we Indiana girls can sweep through to some flight prizes. ATHERTON VS.

A COMEBACK Crusader Wins Easily in Saratoga Feature. Bu United Press SARATOGA SPRINGS, N Y.. Aug. 25. Crusader*, 3-year-old champion of the year, made a brilliant comeback after his unfortunate defeat in the Travers when he took the Huron Handicap with ridiculous ease from a good flejd, Tuesday.

Sande had Crusader well in hand during most of the race and the colt was just romping.
