BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent INDIAN HILL CLUB, Chicago, Aug. 17.—Four survivors from a starting field of 160 players clashed today in the semi-finals of the women’s Western golf championship tournament. Mrs. Harry Pressler, Pasadena, Cal., defending champion, was paired with Mrs. O. S. Hill, Kansas City, Mo. Dorothy Page, Madison, Wis., 1928 medalist and title winner in 1926, met Virginia Wilson, last hope of the sixteen Chicago qualifiers. Miss Wilson is fighting for a first major title.

Mrs. Pressler and Miss Page were the only former Western champions to survive Thursday’s round. Mrs. Pressler has accounted for the defeat of Virginia Ingram, Ann Webster and Mrs. Lee W. Mida. Her opponent today, Mrs. Hill was the eliminator of Mrs. H. D. Raymond. Mrs. L. C. Nelson and Gertrude Boothby. Miss Page nipped the hopes of Jane Cannon, Mrs. Curtis Sohl, and Kathleen Wright, while Miss Wilson advanced to the semi-windup by defeating Helen Mac Moran, Mrs. Dorothy Klotz and Mrs. Gertrude Reinhardt. Winners of today’s 18-hole matches will play the 36-hole championship round Saturday.

All A.L. Clubs Rut Yanks Will Lose Some Coin BUSINESS men of the American League admit confidentially that every team in the circuit, with the exception of the Yankees and Athletics, will lost money this season. Nearly every club in the league but the Yanks lost money last season also. The Yankees, in spite of their pay roll, will make a lot of money again this year, and the Athletics, because of their big pay roll, will do just a little better than break even.

Ue figures he can upset the boys with a string of scores in the low eighties and he has confidence he can shoot those scores. a a a MAURICE STONE has been striving for the Indianapolis Times’ Interscholastic golf crown for three years and came within a shade of capturing that honor this

year when he went to the finals with William Heinlein and met defeat on the last hole. Maurice is a clever player, with a perfect golf form and and even temperament. He shoots the Coffin course in the upper 70s cons istently and won low medal honors in the Times’ qualifying round with a 79. When the curtain

Frisco Demands Small Fortune MAJOR league scouts who have been chasing after Smead Jolley, the hard-hitting San Francisco outfielder, have turned over their jobs to their bosses. The San Francisco magnates want SIOO,OOO for him and no scout in the game is allowed to promise that much dough. The Giants had first call on him, but when SIOO,OOO was mentioned the New York owners cooled on the deal. No other club, it is understood, will pay that much for him. MIGHT HAVE USED HIM John Kuck, who made anew world’s record with the shotput at the Olympic games this year, says he didn’t try out for the 1924 team because “he was too busy harvesting.’* _
