the Field

■With Billy Evans -

-t] HILE the life of a major \X/ league umpire is often far from an enviable one, there apparently are several tougher jobs in baseball. Qeorge Moriarty, who first starred as a big league player, became one

of the best umpires in baseball and now is manager of the Detroit Tigers, is,‘well fitted to discuss the toughest job in baseball. Incidentally, I am positive George wouldn’t pick umpiring as the hardest of the three, player, manager and umpire, all of which

Evans

he has tasted. “Two hours is usually the limit Os an umpire's woe unless the game goes into extra innings, but a manager worries all twenty-four hours, if he can’t go to sleep, which is often the case," explains Moriarty in drawing a comparison between the two positions. The failure of the Detroit Tigers to get away to a flying start has put the burdens of a big league clup up to for a quick solution. PI HITTING DISAPPOINTS T In the American League this year |we find two decided contrasts from [a managerial standpoint in George JMoriarty and Ray Schalk. Talcing over the Detroit Tigers, a team that had always threatened under Cobb but invariably faltered in the stretch, Moriarty was conceded to have the makings of quite a ball club. Stame of the experts went so far as to pick the Detroit Tigers to win the pennant, which required a most optimistic temperament. Less optimistic scribes expressed the belief that the team would prove to be the dark horse of the race, which after all, can mean anything. On one thing all critics agreed in sizing up the possibilities of Detroit, the team could hit, regardless of any other faults it might have. During the first two months of this year’s play, the Tigers failed to do the very thing every one agreed they could, whale the tar out of the old baseball. TWO MANAGERIAL CONTRACTS "l AY SCHALK, who, like Moritz arty, is making his debut as | 1 v a big league manager, has met with just the opposite conditions. e None of the experts who toured the spring training camps even mentioned the White Sox as a possible pennant contender. Instead of being an also ran, Chicago, favored by fine pitching, which Schalk has handled with excellent judgment, plus timely batting and the breaks, has been the surprise of the race. Since managerial ability is judged by the games won column, Ray Schalk is being hailed as a great manager, while judgment is being reserved on George Moriarty. I feel pretty positive that George Moriarty is convinced that managing is tougher than umpiring, that Ray Schalk, despite his early season success, thinks it is harder than catching.

Field of 62 Golfers Swing Into Action on Final Day of Tourney

Harry Cooper Jumps Into Lead in Third Round Play —Bobby Jones, Defending Champ, Confronts Gigantic Task.

Bit l tilled Press OAKMONT COUNTRY CLUB, HULTON, Pa., June 16.—“Lighthorse” Harry Cooper of Sacramento, young professional, took the lead in the third round of the national golf championship today with a total of 224 strokes. Cooper shot a 74 today, and snatched the lead from Walter Hagen by a mafgin of two strokes. Harrison Johnson, Minneapolis amatuer, had blown meanwhile and lost all chance by taking an 87. On his first round, Cooper shot a 74 through the rain, following it on Wednesday with a 76 which left him in a tie with Hagen for fourth place. The confident young English-born pro went out in 38 today and came home in 36, dropping one stroke to par each way. His 74 was among the best. Walter Hagen had a 76 to add to his 150. Archie Compston, the tall British pro, made 76 and was five strokes behind Cooper with a total of 229. Barnes Fades Out After appearing for a moment as a possible contender, Jim Barnes faded out and took an 81 for a total of 234. Larry Nabholtz of Sharon, Pa., had a 78 for a three-round gross of 234. Tommy Harmon, Jr., who had been out in par, took 43 strokes getting home over the last nine, and added an 80 to his first two rounds for a total of 236. Gene Sarazen, who was second when he set out on his third round, dropped far back with an 80, for a total of 228. Arthur Havers, Great Britain, not many years ago rated the “unofficial champion of the world,” shot a brilliant 30 for his first nine today. This was two strokes under par and

much better than most of the leaders were doing. Havers, however, was too far behind for his threat to alarm the first ten. Starting out with a par five at the first hole, Havers shot a great round, never above par and with a couple of nifty birdies. His card for the first nine reads: 544443434 —i>o. Johnston passed from the golfing picture with an 87 for his third round, one of the worst collapses ever put on by a leader of the golfing parade. This put the blonde Minneapolis amateur back into the ranks with a total of 234. After skirting close to par for two days under the most difficult conditions, Jimmy was 15 strokes over par today. Johnston made no attempt to excuse his failure. “I got into the traps,” he said, “and took too many getting out.” George Gadd. Britisher, was among the casualties. He was disqualified at the twelfth hole for playing the wrong ball. He had gone out in 43. Still Chance for Leaders There still was a chance for some one of the leaders to zoom suddenly to the golfing tame by setting the course afire with a really great round. If one of them were capable of two great rounds he could put the open championship of the year in his pocket. As the third round began, the impression was that Jones would be unequal to the task of catching up with the leaders. Ordinarily, the tendency in recent years has been to give the Atlantan credit for superhuman golfing ability which makes opposition worse than useless. This time, even Bobby himself seems to feel that the task was too much.

TRIBE CONTINUES SERIES WITH BLUES; LOSES OPENER Bases on Balls Ruin Indians and K. C. Cops, 4-3^—Holke Hits Homer Over High Fence.

BY EDDIE ASH Dutch Zwilling’s K. C. Blues gained the upper hand over the Indians in the series opener at Washington Park Wednesday by the close-fitting score of 4 to 3. The second struggle between the rivals was carded for today and Bill Burwell or Louis Koupal was slated to hurl for the home talent. Bases on balls ruined the Betzel pastimers Wednesday, Schupp walking eight men. and Three of the free tickets developed into runs for the opposition. Happens in Ninth The deciding run came on a “break” in the ninth with two Blues down and Nicholson on third and Grigsby on first. Grigsby dashed for second with Schupp looking at him and Nicholson hustled for the plate. The Indians were upset for the moment, but Schupp turned In time to make the throw home, and Nicholson was safe when Florence dropped the sphere after tagging Nicholson. Ump Connolly ruled "out" and then “safe” and that marker beat the Indians. It is a favorite play of the Blues and it was strange the Indians weren't watching for it. Useless Throw Home Poor baseball was played by the home athletes in the third round when two runs scored. Zinn walked and Grigsby singled him to third. Wamby scored Zinn with a sacrifice fly to Layne and the Tribe leftfielder foolishly threw home, allowing Grigsby to go to second on the throw-in. whence he scored on Hauser’s single after Freigau had popped out. There wasn’t a chance to head off Zinn on Wamby's fly and the useless peg to the plate permitted Grigsby to reach the scoring bag.

The big feature from a home standpoint was Walter Holke’s terrific swat in the seventh—a home run over the high right-field fence. He was first up and he crashed the first ball pitched. The Tribe got eight hits to six for the Blue3. But the Blues drew eight walks and the Indians only two. Layne doubled in the fourth and sprung a Charley horse while running out his drive. Anderson took his place in the fifth. “Lon Chaney” Miller surprised the fans by stealing second in the seventh.
