265 Links Artists Start Drive for Coveted Crown. INTEREST ON YANKEES Bill Mehlhorn Shoots Low 72 in Opener. BY ROBERT C. DOWSON United Press Staff Correspondent SANDWICH, England, May 7. This quaint old Kentish town and its picturesque courses among the sandy dunes, scene of the first real home bred American triumph in a British Open championship seven years ago, today witnessed the start of a determined drive by more than 25.0 golfing Britons to bring the title back home. The presence and prowess of Walter Hagen, Gene Sarazen, Tommy Armour and the other American golfers who set out on their first qualifying rounds this morning attracted quite as much interest and wagering, however, as did those stalwart hopes of Great Britain, Archie Compson, Abe Mitchell and Arthur Havers. There were the six—three Americans and three British —most favored by the experts and the spectators when play began. Only six of the 271 entrants withdrew at the beginning of the qualifying round. None of these was prominent. The withdrawal left 265 in competition. The Americans seemed to attract most interest as play started. “Wild Bill” Mehlhorn, sandyhaired nomad of the American links, took the lead among the early finishers in the first qualifying round with a par 72 over the difficut St. George's course. Continuing to shoot the magnificant golf which had characterized his practice rounds last week, Mehlhorn had eight one-putt greens. “Bill played miraculously,”, said Gene Sarazen, former American open champion, who was partnered with Mehlhorn, and who took a 77 for the round. Mehlhorn's 72 was equalled by Len Holland of England, while George Duncan, the “Black Scot,” was a stroke behind with 73.
PU ZZkfNcT'PL AYS JL/ 1 BASERUNNERS CANNOT ADVANCE. When an improper batsman hits safely and runners on the bases at the time advance as the result of the hit, what action is taken if the play is properly discovered? JUST one thing more is always necessary to remember in bat-ting-out-of-order plays, aside from the feet that the proper batsman Sis the player called out when the mistake is properly discovAt no time can any runner or runners advance on any act of an improper batsman ered by the team in the field and an appeal made to fcvans the umpire. Let us assume that the bases are are filled and two are out when an improper batsman doubles, clearing the bases. The team in the field being aware of the error, calls the attention of the umpire to the slip. He calls the proper batsman out; this makes the third out and erases the three runs that had crossed the plate. If there was one or no one out at the time, the runners who had scored would simply return to their original bases.

McQuade —bought controlling interest in one of the most valuable properties in the major leagues. They vowed undying partnership and signed an agreement that no one of the partners could leave the firm without the consent of the other two.

The work of Secretary Ray Stirk and his staff also was being complimented very highly on all sides. In fact the tourney was a huge success from all angles.

They went along for years as friends and pals and then the break came. Stoneham traded Rogers Hornsby over the heads of McGraw and McQuade and encroached upon the field domain of McGraw by delegating Jim Tierney, his lieutenant and secretary of the club, with broad authority that hurt the pride of John McGraw. Next came the displacement of McQuade as treasurer of the club and the substitution of Leo Bondy, Stoneham’s personal attorney. as his successor. McQuade charged that Stoneham suddenly decided to run the whole ball club and traded Hornsby and fired him out of his treasurer job without the consent of his partners and now threatened to expose Stoneham in court.
