Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, June 25.—From the whispering pines of Speculator—or are they mtirmuring maples?—comes word that Mr. Tunney, the elegant champion, has all of a sudden and much to his patrician surprise rediscovered the power of his trusty right duke or hand. The story is that Tunney has fceen without this power for the last

three or four years due to a skin infection which reached the bone and produced a sensitive condition accompanied by a chaste brittleness. It is not news that Tunney used to have bad hands, but to hear that he has had bad hands all along is news and interesting news—if true.

Williams

e chances are the story, like the moral influence of the May West dramas and the Peter Rabbit nocturnals, is somewhat exaggerated, and while I would not accuse the champions’ associates and least of all the champion himself of sponsoring anything that might smaok of the vulgar ballyhoo, I stiL don’t believe the story, or any part of it. n a t> The ballyhoo reared up around a prize fight- does not always have to be purposeful or significant, and herein it differs, if you care to know, from the ballyhoo or propaganda that public utility corporations float in order to woo higher rates or lower taxes. # # a IN this instance, if it should develop that Mr. Tunney or some low rogue in his retinue has stooped to the tawdry mechanics of the ballyhoo it must be for a purpose, because in a camp where sterling character, high mindedness and nobility of the soul abound,* nothing can be haphazard or without design. My suspicion is that this Is the beginning of a subtle campaign which will bring the champion into the last stages of the training siege a potential knockerout, with unaccustomed fury squirming from his gloved fists and a strange lust for the kill in his placid, blue eyes. You see the customers rally more Siumerously to the promise of a knockout and Tunney is as vitally Interested in the customers who may attend this fight as is Tex Rickard, because the champion will receive 50 per cent of all monies that exceed $1,000,000. tt tt a And another thing, Tunney probably has no aversion to allowing an impression to grow that he may win by a knockout this time. Secretly he believes he has more than an outside chance to stop the Hard Rock, as the Heeney person is known. tt tt a AT Philadelphia Tunney wasn’t quite sure what was going to happen to him. He was honestly unafraid and genuinely hopeful, but he wasn’t absolutely sure of himself. No man imaginative enough £o sense danger could have been. A year later at Chicago he was Bure of himself, but not sure of his ability to put Dempsey away. Ten rounds is a short distance to make a gallant foeman seek succor from his favorite uncle. Tunney announced in advance his plan to win on points. It is inconceivable- that two men (disliking each other as enthusiastically as these two did could have fought without a hearty desire to Win with a crushing knockout. Dempsey came close. Fate, a technicality, and a well conditioned champion who could go backward faster than he could come forward balked him. Had the fight gone on beyond the tenth round it could have had but one climax. A knockout by Tunney. In the beginning he wanted it to be fifteen rounds. He knew thing. The fight,with the Heeney person in the stadium next month Will be fifteen rounds, and this increases the possibility of the champion scoring a knockout. tt n tt He is one of those fighters who wear their men down, and the longer the fight runs the more destructive his punches become. With five added rounds in which to work his right hand ought to jbe more eloquent than it has been ' fcince he won the title. •'

Quite Simple I By XEA Service NEW YORK, June 25.—This process of hitting home runs is a very simple process, according to Babe Ruth in an interview given recently. “All you have to do is stand up to the plate with a bat in your hand, make the pitcher know you are better than he is, swing at the ball you like best, hit hard enough to send the ball over the fence, rim around the bases and return to the bench,” says Babe. And that explains how it is done, dear readers, by the man who does it better than anybody in this world.

Quaker Ridge Pro Takes National Title From Famed Atlantan. DECIDED ON LAST HOLE Eight-Foot Putt Tells the Tale. BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor OLYMPIA FIELDS, CHICAGO, June 25.—After a playoff packed with drama to the last putt, Johnny Farrell of Quaker Ridge is open golf champion of the United States. Bobby Jones, twice winner of the title and present amateur champion, just couldn’t “get hot” in the Sunday rain, and so lost to Farrell by a single stroke. Three times in the past six years a playoff has been necessary to decide the national open championship.! Jones has participated in all three, but this one at Olympia Fields under dripping gray skies was the most dramatic of all. It would be unfair to say that Johnny Farrell outgamed Bobby in the extra thirty-six-hole match which decided the championship after the New York pro and the Atlanta amateur had tied with aggregates of 294 at the < nd of the first four rounds. Spectacular Finish But gameness was the hall mark of the new champion’s game as the pair battled through the downpour to the final hole. It was grin against grimness, as the two fought to the greatest finish a gallery at an open championship ever has witnessed—and the grin won. “I hope I can live up to it.” said Johnny, with that ready, infectious smile of his, as they handed him the big silver cup. Farrell has tried nine times to win the open title, and this is his first success. It means between $50,000 and SIOO,OOO to him within the next year, counting the return from exhibition matches, endorsements and other lucrative engagements. Farrell squared the match at the 31st hole, where the new champion nearly sank his tee shot. A birdie two to Jones’ par three put Farrell on even terms. Both had tossed away chances up until this point. They halved the next two holes in par figures.

Johnny Takes Lead At the short thirty-fourth Bobby pushed his tee shot over the edge of the green. He tried desperately to chip back dead, but his ball stopped thirty feet from the cup and he couldn’t get the putt down. Johnny laid his pitch nicely on the green and was down in par to Bobby’s four, thus gaining the lead he never relinquished. At the seventeenth Farrell sliced into the rough. It looked like Bobby’s chance and he slapped his tee shot straight down the fairway. From deep rough Johnny laid an iron shot one foot from the pin. Jones was on with his second, but twenty-five feet from the pin, and it looked as though the match was over. Bobby Jones is never beateh, however, until the last putt goes down. The Atlantan sank the 25footer and they halved the hole in birdie threes. He Sank the Putt Then came the eighteenth equally spectacular. Farrell, forcing a smile, pushed his tee shot to the right and hooked his second into the rough at the left. Jones, with nerves of iron, was straight for the green in two and chipped up to within two feet of the cup. At this point it seemed as though the amateur champion was certain to win the hole and square the match, for Farrell was about eight feet from the cup with his pitch from the rough. Johnny sank that putt and won the title. The cards for the playoff: Par— Out 5-4-4-4-4-3-4-3-4—35 In 4-4-4-3-4-5-3-4-5—36—71 MORNING ROUND Jones Out 4-5-6-4-4-3-4-3-5—38 In 4-4-4-3-4 4-3-4-5—35—73 Farrell Out 5-5-4-4-4-2-5-4-4—37 In 3-5-4-3-5-4-2-3*4—33 -70 AFTERNOON ROUND Jones Out 4-4-6-3-3-3-4-3-6—36 In ..... 4-4-4-3-4-5-4-3 4—35—71 Farrell Out 6-5-4-3-4-3-6-3-4—37 In 5-6-5-2-4-5-3-3-4—36—73 Totals lor thirty-six holes: Jones. 144: Farrell, 143.

Tribe Meets Cardinals Following Series Finale With Senator Nine National League Leaders Mix With Indians in Exhibition Tuesday; Hoosiers Drop Sunday Tilt.

Following the series wind-up with the Senators today the league leading Indians will mix with the National League leaders at Washington Park Tuesday in an exhibition tilt. Manager Bill McKechnie, the old Indianapolis Federal Leaguer, has promised to use Ills regular lineup that has paraded to the top in the senior major circuit. Jim Bottomley, who hits them a "mile;” Rabbit Maranville, the an cient comeback; Frankie Frisch and other stars are scheduled to show their prowess against the Tribe. The contest will start at 3 o'clock, daylight saving time. During the wave of kidnaping that struck recently, evidently the Indians’ battipg eyes were abducted, for the home pastimers have obtained only six hits in two days, three Saturday and three Sunday. But that weakness didn’t prevent the Indians from winning Saturday and Columbus was nosed out, 1 to 0, with Swetonic scattering nine hits while opposed by Wykoff. A double-header was scheduled Sunday, but a thunder shower washed away the second tilt, and only three and one-half Innings were played and it was no game Haney was on second with none out in the fourth when hostilities ceased. Due to wet grounds, there was a

By Times Special COLLINSVILLE, 111., June 25. One of those long-shot “hits” Saturday at the Fairmount race track here when Joe Engel won the first race and paid $285.20 to win. Joe Engel was in a five-eighths of a mile race for 2-year-olds and won by a length. The price set anew record at Fairmount.

delay of twenty-five minutes in getting the first fray started Sunday and attendance was held down by the threatening weather. To add to the dismal afternoon, Columbus captured the contest, 4 to 1. Chief Elmer Meyers, an old timer, baffled the Betzel athletes and Tribe base hits were few. He lost control late in the game, however, and was relieved by Lyons in the eighth. Myers issued seven walks and Lyons two, making a total of nine, yet the league leaders got only otae run. It was peculiar. Myers got two hits and drove in two runs and was the day’s hero despite the fact he did not go the full route. Two runs were scored off Boone in the second inning and two off Schupp in the third. The Indianapolis run was registered in the seventh and was forced in by a walk. The bases were filled when Connolly lined to Leibold for the side-retiring out. Leverett and Zumbro were the hurlers in the, second tilt that was unfinished, and the rain apparently stopped a pitchers’ battle. Christensen anj Leibold of Columbus connected for singles and for the Indians Matthews and Comorosky singled and Haney doubled. With a little more time, the Indians probably would have won the nightcap.

Walter Hagen, American professinal champion, will be paired with his British conqueror, Archie Compston, who Sunday shot a 72 to “The Haig’s” 74. The only other player beside Compston to hit par 72 was Phil Hessler of Bristow, Okla. Following in with 74’s were Leo Diejgel, White Plains. N. Y.; Walter Hagen, New York; A1 Espinosa, Chicago, and Ed Dudley, Los Angeles. Rufus Stewart, Australian open champion; Aubrey Boomer, Wimbledon, England; Joe Kirkwood, Albany, N. Y. Roland Hancock, the Wilmington, N. C., youth, who Saturday let the national open title slip from his grasp when he took a pair of sixes on his last two holes, took a 77.

MRS. GAGE HOAG, president of the Indianapolis Women’s Golf Association, looked skyward early today at Meridian Hills course and said to the women al • ready on hand for the opening play in a two-day tournament: “Girls, we had better not try it today.” The girls agreed and the next thing was to rearrange the plans for the meet. It was decided to go on with the schedule just as if nothing hac. happened today; and play at the Indianapoluis Country Club Tuesday using the same starting schedule as was planned for today. Play will be over the Meridian Hills course Wednesday. Thus, only the plans at Meridian Hills today were marred. u n a The affair is a two-day combined ! medal play event, and scores from both courses will be added. Prizes j will be awarded for both low gross and low net. Also, prizes for low net and gross at each course. a a a It Is noted that Miss Ellabeth Dunn, State champion, will play with Mrs. Ben C. Stevenson, whom she battled in tne final match at the State meet last year, In the first two-some at 9 a. m. It is Elizabeth’s first tournament of the jear. She has not been seen around the local courses, much this year. Rumors were out that she was oft her game, ill and many others. The best we have heard, however, and the one that we believe to be true, is that she is playing mostly with men • partners, all of whom shoot low scores. This is an effort to whittle down her score. Miss Dunn has a tremendous amount of power In her wood shots and Is a fine putter. Her only weakness seemed to be in her pitch shots to soft turf rolling greens. Her style seemed to be the roll-up shot. She Is intent on cutting down her score before the State meet at Terre Haute the middle of July, and is practicing at that course now and then. The odds are that some one will fifid the going rough to defeat her. a a a Other pairings for the two-day meet, the same time operating each day, follows: 9:05 A. M.—Mrs. Carl Gibbs and Mrs. James C.

Weather Man Slows Local Tennis Play Rain Handicaps City Net Meet; Today’s Matches Postponed. BY ROBERT E. O’HARA The weather man is still winning most of his matches in the* city championship tennis tourney at the Hawthorne Courts. The sun shone long enough over the week-end to allow thirteen of the first-round matches to be played in the men’s singles, and then Jupe Pluvius took charge again. Weather conditions this morning caused definite postponement of today’s matches. The officials are extremely anxious to avoid all further postponements, with the western championships due tto start at Dayton, Saturday, with the dead line for out-of-town entrants set for next Monday. The tournament already has been held up a week and one more postponement will about end the chances to complete all classes of play next Sunday. Nine first round matches in men’s singles remain to be played, and play has not been started in -the juniors’ and boys’ singles. The draw for all doubles classes, and the women’s singles, will not be made until the men’s first round is finished. Week-end results: SUNDAY'S SCORES Tommy Hendricks defeated E. Sunman, 6-1. 9-7.
