Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, June 21.—Newspaper legend has it that doddering old dads sit up o’ nights telling their grandchildren about the day they were at Carson City when Fitz stopped Corbett and the time they were in Chicago when the White Sox beat those famous Cubs. It seems that this is all that doddering dads ever tell their granchildren. It’s time there was a

change. One of these days, I expect to be a doddering old dad i and I am going to 1 tell my grandchil- ; dren about the boat : race those college : fellows put up on Tuesday up at Poughkeepsie. I won’t be able to tell them much about it because I wouldn’t know a fo’castle from a Hollywood bungalow, but

Williams

I will be able to tell them that it was all-fired thrilling and that two of the gamest crews that ever came from anywhere, put on a four-mile race that had everybody breathless with frenzy and dizzy with delirium lit the finish. a a a I will tell them that I was pulling for Columbia to win because that was the way I had wagered, * being a wagering man of no mean magnitude, but that I was a bit chargined when it was all over and California had won for, after all, what is two bucks when you’ve seen a great finish to a great race by two great crews?

MAYBE some of the experts can tell you precisely why California took the championship away from Columbia. I can’t unless it was that California was just a wee mite better with the sweeps. Watching them through the haze and mist that settled on the Hudson, making ghostly figures of the oarsmen and lending an eerie touch to the whole spectacle, the chief impression I got was that here were sixteen young men rowing their hearts out, and liking it. There were other crews in the race. Five others to be statistical, but not for the thousands who thronged both sides of the river, the other thousands who rode at anchor on the big boats and the still other thousands who sat on bleacher seats in the jerky, rumbling train stands that kept pace with the paddlers during the races—for these there were only two crews—California and Columbia. o # Even when the red and white blades of Cornell leaped away to a surprise lead and stayed out there for half the distance, kicking up the murky water into rhythmic flashes of foam, all eyes remained on the two crews that somehow or other made their power felt before they showed it. a it a FROM start to finish there never was more than a boat’s length between these two and for the most part they rode the choppy Hudson surface in tandem style, so closely were they matched in boat skill, muscle and heart. It wasn’t until the gray outlines of the old bridge had faded into the heavy twilight that the far westerners began definitely to pull away, and it was over this last half mile stretch—heart breaker’s lane the oarsmen call it—that the new champions swept to victory, and anew record. Not more than one or two full seconds separated California, the winner, from Columbia, the runner up, at the end of the haula a a When two boats of eight can start from scratch in a four-mile drive and keep nose to nose practically all the way and then dart across the finish line with nothing more than the tick of a watch hand separating them, they have been in one hell of a boat race.

Links Stars Start Play in Quest of National Open Golf Crown

Crowley and Brown in Top Bout at Fort Mambrig'nt Beats Langford, Larabee Trims Conway in Good Scraps. Tommy Crowley, Pittsburgh, will mix with Buster Brown, St. Louis, in the ten-round main go at the Ft. Harrison arena next Tuesday night. Crowley has appeared in Indianapolis several times and his showings have been pleasing. In the semi-windup of eight rounds next Tuesday, Mickey O’Dowd, Muncie, will clash with Billy Cecil, Louisville. Vincent Hambright, Cincinnati Filipino, was the star of the double windup program at the Fort Wednesday night. The two interesting ten-round bouts topped a good preliminary card. It was a fine, all around card. If Tate Langford, experienced Louisville fisticuffer, ever took a lacing in his life he took one Wednesday night from Hambright. Hambright, fast and clever, was punching hard and clean. He also had a big edge in infighting. Forces Fighting Frankie Larabee, Omaha, short as A1 Conway of Philadelphia was long, handed the lanky Philadelphian a neat beating in the other ten-rounder. Larabee forced all the fighting and kept hammering away at Conway. In the top six-rounder, Chet Smallwood, Sullivan, put up what probably was the best fight he ever has produced in Indianapolis. Smallwood won The Times’ decision over Paul Darq of San Francisco. The Hoosier battled away like a veteran. Good Left Hand All Steve Vincent of Cincinnati needed to beat Buck Comet, Indianapolis, was his left hand. Steve had a nice left and punched Cornet silly. Buck was down for a nine-count in the first and again in the fourth. It was a six-rounder. Eddie Dick, Indianapolis, sank a hard right-handed swat under Terry Donovan’s heart, and the latter, also a local scrapper, went down for the count in the first round of the opening four-rounder.

Jimmy Manlon, St. Louis 'l-40—91 George Daray, Chicago 43-43—8 G BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor OLYMPIA FIELDS, CHICAGO, June 21.—Two by two, over the rolling fairways of Olympia Fields, the pick of the nation’s golfers, and a hardy, hopeful handful from overseas, set out today in quest of the National Open championship. By Friday night, the field will bo whittled down to the leading sixty at the end of the first two rounds, and the survivors will go on another thirty-six holes on Saturday to determine the new champion. Disaster attended the early effort:, of some of the less celebrated contestants, as is always the case in a national championship. Seven eights and one nine were marked up on the cards of the first dozen starters before they had reached the turn.

Bobby Jones, of Atlanta, the favorite, reeled off three birdies on his outward journey to reach the turn in 35, par figures for the first nine. The amateur champion was content to take things easy on his second nine and finished with a total of 73. This left him behind Leonard Schmutte of Lima, Ohio, Bill Leach of Overbrook, Pa., and there were otters who threatened to surpass Bobby’s performance. Atlantan ‘On’ Game It was apparent the Atlantan was on his game and probably would justify the confidence of his followers. Johnny Farrell, Bob’s partner, took 40 to reach the turn. When Jones, after being twice in the rough at the first hole, negotiated a birdie four, the large and unfortunately unruly gallery, got a taste of what was coming. Bobby was far from accurate on his outward way, but his recoveries were those marvelous shots of yore, and he made up for a certain wildness from the tee by accurate pitches from trouble. Jones started home in 4-5-4-3, one over par figures. He took an extra stroke at the 387-yard eleventh, supposedly one of the easiest par 4 holes at Olympia Fields. Compston Starts Archie Compston, the tall Britisher and most feared of foreign contenders, was several pairs behind Bobby Jones, partner with Tommy Armour, the defending champion. Compston started with a birdie four at the first, which was easy for a long hitter, but then the rough beckoned and Archie grew wild. He took five on the second, and again on the third which left him with a bit of a handicap at that stage. Here and there, a dark horse in the field kicked over the expectations, as when Horton Smith of Joplin, Mo., reached the turn in 35. Frank Walsh, Appleton, Wis., had 36-38—74, to finish among the early leaders. Leonard B. Schmutte, Indianapolis man who is a pro at Lima, Ohio, was the first of the 141 contenders to equal par today. Partnered with Emmett French of Southern Pines, who had an 81, Schmutte got a par 71. Schmutte’s card: Out: 543 444 435—36 In: 444 345 335—35—71 Von Elm Has 39 George Von Elm, the former amateur champion from California, got away to an indifferent start this morning, taking 39 to reach the turn. Craig Wood, Bloomfield, N. J., who shot a 70 Wednesday in practice and is one of the few contestants to break par this week, proved a living example of the axiom that it is something else again to do it during the championship. “The boys will have their pencils and score-cards today,” remarked Jones as he set out. This proved true in Wood’s case, as he took 44 to reach the turn. Walter Hagen, surly and debonair as ever, set out with quite a sizeable gallery, young Maurice McCarthy, Jr., the New York amateur as his partner.

start a round of games with Columbus Saturday. The Indians massacred the Hens Wednesday, taking the first tilt of the afternoon 6 to 0, and the second, 14 to 3. Ferd Schupp hurled the shutout and he allowed only five hits. Six Hens fanned before Ferd’s twisters. The veteran southpaw was master, for he got perfect support and fairly breezed in without straining the old “souper.” Toledo used three pitchers in the Wednesday opener and four in the nightcap. Dixie Leverett went the route for the Indians in the wind-up and blanked the Hens in seven of the nine innings. Furthermore, Leverett jumped into the Tribe batting spree with both feet and poleu a triple and two singles. It was “three-base-hit-day” for Manager Betzel’s crew, eight of their extra base swats in the double header being three-ply drives. Matthews got two triples in the first fray and one in the second. In the first inning of the opener, Matthews, Haney and Comorosky socked triples and put the fracas on ice right there. Fred Haney, back in action after a short absence on the crippled list, proved a batting demon with four hits in the first battle and two in the second. In fact he got five straight hits. The dandy third sacker also stole three bases during the afternoon. The Tribe repeated their errorless form in the Wednesday closing struggle, and the team collected twenty hits, which, with twelve in the opener, gave the Tribe a total of thirty-two hits for the day. Yes, the Indians certainly ran hog wild Wednesday. Fred Haney reached base six times in a row Wednesday before the Hens finally got him out in the fifth inning of the second game. It was “kids’ day” at Swayne field and several thousand boys were entertained royally—by the Indians! Paid attendance was about 3,500. Wid Matthews cracked out three hits in each fracas, three of the blows being triples. Roy Spencer caught both tilts for the Tribe, and he was rewarded by combing three hits in the nightcap.
