Merely Chatter BY NORMAN ISAACS

GEORGE UHLE, one of the very few American League pitchers the New York Yankees never have been able to dent very severely, snapped his fingers in the faces of George Herman Ruth & Company the other afternoon at Yankee stadium. Other mound artists also

have tried that stunt occasionally against the Yankees and the ensuing results have not proved exc e ptionally healthy for s: ,id twirlers. Uhle was in fine form Tuesday and when he had completed the day's labors the baseball champions of the universe could

•' f ••

count their total number of hits on four fingers of one hand. Incidentally, p.s George was pitching Cleveland to a 3 to 0 victory, it was handing willowy Herb Pennock his first setback of the season. Os the four bingles Uhle allowed the A. L. pacemakers, Pennock connected for two. Mark Koenig got one and Pat Collins the only other. Another feather in Hr. Uhle's hat. ana THEY do say over East that Benny Leonard, who retired the undefeated lightweight champion of the “woild,” is thinking about trying a "come-back.” Benny has agreed

to help train Sammy Mandell, present king of the 135-pounders for his title bout with Jimmy McClarnin on the evening of May 17 at the Polo Grounds. It will be the first lightweight champi o n s h i p bout in New York since Leonard whipped Lefty Lew Tendler at the Yankee

Leonard

Stadium and retired. One reason for Leonard’s retirement was the well-known fact that Benny was experiencing trouble making the weight. Now it is understood that Benny is going to take a couple of workouts with Mandell, find out what sort of shape he is in—and perhaps take a fling in the welterweight division. Those merely are reports and it’s almost a cinch bet Benny never will re-enter active ring competition again.

Jose Jurado Takes Lead in British Open Golf Tournament

Speed Shown at Louisville by Eligibles Turfmen Not Excited Over Showing of Misstep in Feature. Bn Time * Special LOUISVILLE, Ky„ May 10.— Turfmen here for the classic Kentucky Derby May 19 did not appear excited today over the showing of Derby eligibles in actual competition here Wednesday. The first test came in the running of the Prospect Purse, a seven furlongs event. Misstep, owned by Leo J. Marks of Lexington, cantered into first place. Lawley was second and Dodgson third. Misstep's time for the seven furlongs was fast—l:24 4-5. But despite his great speed, Misstep was not running at the finish like a colt that can go the mile and a quarter in good shape. Dodgson was away late and received a poor ride, but looked good at the end. Other Derby eligibles were in the Valley Stallion Handicap, a six-fur-long race, won by Colonel Shaw, an outsider. ■’’Lucky Hit was second and Reigh Olga, third. Reigh Olga was coming fast at the finish and excited admiration. The colt not only added to its own Derby prospects but boosted the stock of Reigh Count. The two horses worked together for some time and Trainer Mitchell was forced to substitute Anita Peabody as Reigh Count's work-mate to give Reigh Olga a rest. MANUAL COPS SEVENTH Red Pound Out Victory Over Silent Hoosier Nine.

Tribe Drops Close Tilt to Blues and Falls Into Second Division v Davis Noses Out Burwell, 5 to 4, Wednesday; Zinn and Schupp Slated for Fourth of Series.

Bn Timm Special KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 10.— Jimmy Zinn, mainstay right-hander of the K. C. mound staff, and Ferd Schupp, veteran southpaw 7, were slated to do the pitching today in the fourth tilt of the - Blue-Indian series. The Betzelites close their local stay Friday, after which they will make a dash for home to meet Louisville Saturday before starting another road trip Sunday with two games with the Colonels in Derbytown. The Hoosiers got halted Wednesday, 5 to 4, in a tight fit that was decided in the ninth inning when Wamby singled Warmouth home with the winning run after two out. And with both Minneapolis and Milwaukee winning Wednesday, the Indians were knocked down into fifth place in the A. A. standing. Burwoll and Davis engaged in a pitching duel here Wednesday in the third of the series and the contest sparkled with some brilliant plays in both outfields. Fred Haney's home run in the eighth knotted the count at 4 and 4 and extra innings loomed until

The three first frays of the In-dian-K. C. series this week were of the redhot variety. On Monday the Hoosiers won, 8 to 7; they repeated Tuesday, 5 to 4, and on Wednesday the Blues triumphed, 5 to 4. That’s high-class entertainment for the fans. It was tough no runners were on when Haney poled his eircuit smash Wednesday. He drove the ball over the scoreboard in left field, a hefty poke. Three of the five walks Issued by Dixie Davis went to Warstlcr. The outfield work of Lavne for the Indians and McGowan for Kansas City was above the ordinary, both turning in great catches. The Blues had a peculiar sixth inning. They got three hits, one a double, one walk, and there was one Tribe error, yet only one run scored. K. C. fans beefed a-plenty. Attendance was slightly over 1 500 Weather was clear and hot. Bruno Haas, husky St. Paul outfielder, drew a three-day suspension Wednesday for cursing Umpire Powell and trying to start fist fights with members of the Toledo Hens. Milwaukee slammed out thirteen

Argentine Star Shoots 71 to Total 145 for Two Rounds. HAGEN, SARAZEN NEXT Mehlhorn Third; Armour Is Eliminated. BY ROBERT C. DOWSON, United Press Staff Correspondent SANDWICH, England, May 10.— With all the American leaders in, Jose Jurado of Argentine, led the field in the second round of the open golf championship today with an aggregate of 145. Jurado w 7 ent around in 71. Walter Hagen and Gene Sarazen of the American team, were tied for second place with 148. Sarazen, last of the American big guns to finish, shot a 76. Hagen had a splendid 73. "Wild Bill'’ Mehlhorn, who led the field with a 71 Wednesday could do no better than 78 today. He was out in 37 and home in 41 for an aggregate of 149 that put him four strokes behind Jurado. Tommy Armour was first to pas* out of the tournament, under the rule that those fifteen strokes or more behind the leader at the end of the second round were eliminated. The remainder will compete in the final thirty-six holes Friday. Douglas Grant, AngloAmerican amateur, with a score of 81 and an aggregate of 161, also was eliminated. Armour also had 161. A score of 160 was sufficient to kill off any man today. The veteran Englishman, Alex Herd went out with an aggregate of 163. D'Allemagne. France, went out with an aggregate of IGI. John McHugh. San Francisco, ana Bob Stupple, Chicago, both were eliminated. McHugh had 165 and Stupple. 167. Roger Wethered. British amateur star, was eliminated when he turned in a card of 81 for an aggregate of 163. Archie Compston, who tied Wednesday with Walter Hagen, his victim in their recent match, at 75, went around in 74 for an aggregate of 149, and took the lead among the British team. Veteran Arthur Havers, Great Britain, passed out of the tournament with the lowest fatal score—--160.

Wamby crashed one to his liking in the ninth. Davis held the Hoosiers to five hits, but he walked five men and the free tickets kept the Tribesmen in the game. Walter Holke got two of the five blows off Davis, a triple and double, and he was robbed of another bingle on a great catch by McGowan. The third was the Blues’ibig inning, three runs going over when Zwilling's swatters got to Burwell. Catcher Spencer was banished by Umpire Goetz in the fourth stanza for becoming critical of the official's ruling and Swetonic, chirping from the bench, also got the gate. The winning run in the ninth was as follolws: Cronin, first up, singled and Peters walked. Warmouth ran for Peters. Chatham batted for Davis and forced Cronin at third. Kuhel grounded to Holke, Warmguth taking third and'Chatham secor The count was two strikes ana one ball on Wamby when he singled over Haney to send Warmouth home to end the struggle. Burwell. rated the Indians' best pitching bet, had won four games and lost none previous to his local defeat Wednesday.

B&l PROPER BATSMAN IS ALWAYS OUT If an improper batsman hits safely and the team in the field discovers the mistake and appeals to the umpire, what action does he take in the matter? B B B IF one remembers that the proper batsman is always out in the case where a batter bats in the wrong place in the line-up much of the confusion over batting-out-of-

order plays will be cleared up. For instance, Smith, the third batter, should have started the inning, but Jones, the fourth batter, leads off and eracks out a double. The team in the field, noticing the mistake, makes an immediate appeal

Billy Evans

to the umpire for a ruling. The official consults his batting order and verifies the slip. Jones, who hit the double, is removed from second base. Smith, who should have been the proper batsman, is called out. This puts it up to Jones, vvho follows Smith in the batting order, to bat again in his proper place. The batting order is then resumed in regular fashion. For years there has been the impression that after a player once bats out of order he cannot bat again in the same inning. This is, of course, erroneous. He must ahvays bat in his regular order, regardless of any improper batting he may have done.

*l9 end Mrs. Schneiderman .502 of this team's 2,33.5 total. Mrs. Eddie Meyer hit her stride In the doubles event, getting a total of 551 over the throe-game route. Mrs. Wiesman backed her up with 529 to give this pair a total of 1.080. Race Johns rolled her host series in the doubles event, giving her partner a ride with a total of 602. H. Mueller had a poor start of 127 which accounted for her 4*l to give this team a total of 1,073. Rickabaugh and Armstrong were neck and neck, the former leading with 532 to Armstrong's 527 for a total of 1.039. Anew game was introduced to the bovs m the Pritchett Recreation Wednesday. A pin about two-thirds the size of a ten pin is used, and the name of the game. "Quintet", is derived from the fact that but five pins are used. The pins set on the one, two, three, seven and t n spots of the regular ten pins, and a duck pin ball is used. Three shots complete an inning. Securing all the p;.:s in one shot Is a strike, two shots a spare, and three shots give the player a count, providing the pin setting on the number sevent spot is knocked down. Scoring is too complicated to explain away from the drives, but the one pin that must be down to secure a count of my kind is the pin that counts four. The game appears to bo interesting and T.

Tex Rickard of Ring Fame to Be Speedway Guest According to Speedway announcement today, among the "honorary officials” at the 500-mile race May 30 will be Tex Rickard, famous boxing promoter, the man who directs the heavyweight situation. Tex, it is said, is eager to see how the Speedway handles its huge crowd and, of course, he also wants to see the speed pilots strive for big money in the big “go-around.” As the duties of an honorary official consist chiefly in looking pleasant but important, Rickard no doubt will fit right into the picture high up in the judges’ stand. Although the handling of crowds at all of Rickard’s big fight events have been complimented for their thoroughness, Rickard never has had to handle so many people as see the International 500-mile race each year.
