Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

"KTEW YORK, Junp 20.— Without bench* of score c: rd I should judge the tenth hole a* Winged Foot is about 160 yards long. A drain creek spli*s the fairway about forty yards from the tee. The green is elevated and sloping and almost completely ’rapped at the mouth. There is nothing about it to fascinate the timorous. Wednesday afternoon Mr. Robert T Jones Jr., a struggling young banister from Atlanta. arrived in the course of a practice round, at the tenth tee. B B B A number of persons had gathered near the tee. Some were acquaintances of Mr. Jones. He shook hands with thpm. Admitted it was hot. Agreed it would be nice to win the open championship which starts over this course next week. Said he hoped to have ihe pleasure of seeing them again. Smiled amiably and walked to the tee. a a a HE PLACED THE LITTLE WHITE BALL ON A RED WOODEN TEE. REACHED INTO HIS BAG AND DREW OUT AN IRON CLUB. TOOK A BRIEF SURVEY OF THE GREEN AND SWUNG CRISPLY. THE BALL CLIMBED THROUGH THE AIR, DROPPED ONTO THE GREEN. AND SETTLED COMFORTABLY A COUPLE OF FEET FROM THE HOLE. BBS , MR. JONES' golf game is like that. He is the greatest stylist in sport. In him you discover timing, rhythm, smoothness and a flawless grace perfectly blended. Every sport has had its master stylist, but no perfomer in any sport ever showed more ease in the manner of execution. ana Mr. Jones’ style makes golf look ridieulou’ly easy. You find yourself wondering why people take the trouble to write so many books about the game. It ought to be possible to describe the game as interpreted by Jones on the back of a postage stamp. All he does is walk up to file ball and smack it. a b B MR. JONES IS ONE OF THE LONG DRIVERS OR GOLF HE CAN SEND A GOLF BALL BUZZING AWAY NEARLY 300 YARDS WITHOUT A DISPLAY OF EFFORT. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF INTENT TO WALLOP THE BALL. NO WASTE MOTION. THERE IS NO WIGGLING OF CLUB. SHIFTING OF FEET. OR PURPOSELESS BODY MOVEMENTS. THERE IS NO RUSH. NO JERK. NO HURRY. EVERY DETAIL IS IN PLACE. B B B MR. JONES, of course, has the physique to help him. His hands and wrists have the inspired touch, the feel of the ball. Few athletes in any sport ever carried co-ordination in the degree that Mr. Jones does. Babe Ruth is a stirring pitcure at the plate, but he is all power; he has rhythm and grace, but he does not project the perfect picture that is to be found in the Georgian. B B B William Tilden. the twice, probably comes closest to the golf star as a master stylist. Though far beyond his peak, he is still an eyeful in action. There have been some fine stylists in the prize ring, too. In his own particular way. Jack Dempsey was very much a stylist. B B B AND BENNY LEONARD. WHO WAS A CHAMPION LIGHTWEIGHT WHEN CHAMPION LIGHTWEIGHTS REPRESENTED SOMETHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN GYMNASIUM DEBRIS. WAS A STYLIST. HE COULD DO EVERYTHING AND DO IT WITH AN ARTISTIC TOUCH. IT WAS A DELIGHT TO WATCH HIM PERFORM PROVIDED YOU WERE NOT IN THE OPPOSITE CORNER.

Herb Penncck Tutors Bots’ Nekola, Sensational Holy Cross Southpaw

Huggins Turns Costly Collegian Into Custody of Great

Yankee Left Hander.

NEW YORK. June 20.—Frank (Bots) Nekola. the costly collegfe southpaw, will learn about pitching from Herb Pennock. called by Miller Huggins the “greatest left-hand-er of all time ‘ “Take this kid over. Herb, and get him ready scon, as we may need him any time." Huggins told Pennock. Suddenly tossed from the Holy Cross college into a uniform of the world champions Nekola admits is some jump. “I'm scared a little, but almost feeling at home because I was born and reared right up here in the Bronx not far from Yankee Stadium.'' Nekola. who will receive something like $20,000 from the Yankees, it is said, for this season's work alone, was sought by the Athletics. White Sox and Senators, but came to the Yankees a year sooner than expected. “I expected to pitch for Holy Crogs another year and join the Yankees in 1931." he said, “but Judge Landis' bulletin caused me to be disqualified and here I am.

Reigh Count Rims Second to Invershin in Ascot Gold Cup

Seven-Year-Old British Colt Wins Classic Event Second Successive Time American Turf Champion of 1928 Makes Gallant Bid for Victory in Rush Down Home Stretch. Bv i mfr 4 /'re t ASCOT, England, June 20.—Racing gallantly over the rolling two and one-half mile court around Ascot Heath in quest of the famous Gold Cup, one of the most valued of English turf trophies, Mrs. John Hert’s Reigh | Count was beaten today, finishing second, two lengths behind Rejd Walker's great 7-year-old Invershin, last year's winner.

The lightly weighted Palais Royal II was third in the race, which was viewed by royalty, nobility and the ' cream of English and continental society. Beaten but not disgraced, for the Sun Reigh colt went a full mile more than it ever had raced here- , tofore, Reigh Count was cheered as | heartily as the winner. Harry I Wragg, one of the year’s leading I English jockeys, said the American {horse, on which he had the mount ■ for the first time, “gave all he had.’’ Shows His Heels In failing to win the Gold Cup, on which Mrs. Hertz had set her ! heart, Reigh Count nevertheless | showed a clean pair of heels to ; some of the finest French and Eng- ! lish distance horses in training. Americans who witnesses the race today will not quickly forget : the thrill of Reigh Count’s gallant | challenge to the winner when the \ leaders drove into the stretch and thundered down past the stands. Invershin, with better staying qualities than the Chicago colt, had been rated off the early pace and moved into the lead a quarter of a mile from home. Wragg shook up Reigh Count, which also had been off the running at the start, and the game son of Sun Reigh responded with a rush and moved up on the leader. Thirteen Horses Run The English horse was the better at the distance today and Reigh Count fell back, beaten two lengths, but saving the place by three lengths from Jacques Wittouck’s Palais Royal 11, with Cacao, the Rothschild colt, a length back. The winner's time was 4:24 4-5 for the two and one-half miles. Thirteen ran. Os the entire field, only Reigh Count had the stamina to challenge the winner, but Invershin answered the challenge with a burst of speed in the stretch, which left Mrs. Hertz’s colt behind. Mrs. Hertz accepted her defeat like a sportsman. “I’m perfectly satisfied. The horse ran a fine race,’’ she told the United Press. Both Mrs. Hertz and her husband were smiling broadly and accepting congratulations while Reigh Count was being unsaddled. Pays Four to One The distance and the up-and-down hill course, with its right-hand turns, proved too great a handicap for Mrs. Hertz’s horse, winner of the Kentucky Derby of 1928 and the greatest 3-year-old of that year on the American turf. Invershin’s odds lengthened to 8 to 1 at post time. Reigh Count’s price was 4 to 1. The price against Palais Royal II was 10 to 1.

year of college baseball, but now I’m with the Yankees I’m going to put everything I have into making good. With Pennock and Shawkey helping me, I’ll have two of the best instructors in baseball.” Nekola won eleven straight games pitching for Holy Cross this season, pitching three one-hit games against Yale, Lafayette and Boston college. He allowed but thirteen runs and fofty-four hits in ninety-three innings. He is tall and built along the lines of Pennock. He weighs 166 stripped and is not yet 22. Around Holy Cross they say Nekola is a better pitcher than Owen Carroll, another Holy Cross product, who has made good with the Detroit Tigers. Nekola conies up with a reputation as a “control-pitcher.” with a good curve ball and fast ball. Nekola credits Jack Barry. Hoi? Cross coach and former Philadelphia Athletics shortstop, with teaching him most of what he knows about pitching.

pShooting Par- * 'J|G U"-- BY - Dirk MILLER.

THE women have weakened. The guy who said the feminine sex never give in to the men was puffing through his skypiece today. Mrs. Charles Kelly Jr. called to tell us that the Indianapolis Women’s Golf Association had changed the place of their tournament Monday from Highland to Broadmoor. All they have done, of course, is to reverse the playing plans from Highland Monday and Broadmoor Tuesday to Broadmoor Monday and Highland Tuesday. 808 Several months ago the women gained permission from the Highland committee to hold the first leg of a thirty-six-hole tournament at Highland Monday. The other day the Indianapolis District Golf Association came along with the plans for their fifty-four-hole tournament next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and the placards read that they, too, would play at Highland Monday. BBS MRS. KELLEY SAID THE WOMEN DIDT CARE TO INTERFERE AND WERE GLAD TO CHANGE THEIR PLANS TO HELP THE MEN PLAY AS MANY TOURNAMENT PLAYERS DURING THE

Al De Rose on Tuesday Fistic Lineup at Fort Tracy Cox, who fights at Broad Ripple tonight, will be seen in action again Tuesday at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, in the semi-final eightround bout, and his opponent will be the clever Al De Rose, who had two winter scraps here with Tracy, winning one on points and losing the other on an unintentional foul. Cox and De Rose staged a whale of a battle at Cadle tabernacle during the indoor season and they appear evenly matched. They are featherweights of the rugged type. Jimmy Hackley, veteran lightweight, will be seen in the main go of ten rounds at Harrison Tuesday against Harry <Kid) Brown, Philadelphia. Hackley's bright performances during the indoor season consisted of knocking out Steve McDonald in three rounds and staying ten rounds with Tony Herrerra, being outpointed in a scrap in which he scored a surprise knockdown on the Mexican “jumping bean.’’

DAY AS POSSIBLE. THE MEN START AT HIGHLAND MONDAY, PLAY EIGHT EEN MORE HOLES AT MERIDIAN HILLS TUESDAY AND FINISH PLAY AT BROADMOOR WTTH EIGHTEEN HOLES WEDNESDAY. EVERYBOODY IS WELCOME TO ENTER THE DISTRICT MEET. WHICH TAKES PLACE OF THE OLD CITY TOURNAMENT. MEMBERS ENTER FREE. OTHERS PAY $2 FOR THE THREE DAYS’ PLAY AND GET A MEMBERSHIP FOR THE REMAINDER OF 1929. a a a THE women will play eighteen holes at Broadmoor Monday and eighteen more at Highland on Tuesday. But their prize arrangements are different than the men. The women will give awards only to those who play the entire thirty-six holes and have low gross or low net scores. The men will give the Tom Taggart trophy to the low gross scorer for fifty-four holes. Other prizes will go to low net and gross scorers for fifty-four holes, first eighteen holes and second eighteen holes. a tt a Anyway the women have ffiven a point and while Mrs. Kelley was perturbed by the fact many women mipht go to Highland Monday, it is well to remember that Broadmoor is just a short distance away. tt a tt SATURDAY WILL BE A BIG DAY AT HIGHLAND. JAMES T. HAMILL, CHAIRMAN OF THE SPORTS AND PASTIMES COMMITTEE, IS CLEARING THE WAY FOR THE FIRST ANNUAL “HIGHLAND FLING.” “HIGHLAND FLING” MEANS A DERBY AND HAMILL AND HIS COMMITTEE HAVE BEEN BUSY SETTING THE HANDICAP ALLOWANCES BECAUSE THE BIG SUCCESS OF THE MEET DEPENDS ENTIRELY ON THE ALLOWANCES. SATURDAY at 11 o'clock Blake Francis, with Neal Mclntyre and Chuck Garringer will take their places at the first tee and begin drumming up interest in the various foursomes. Each foursome is a team and each foursome will have players in it with practically the same handicap allowances. The combined net scores of the four men in the team will count when the prizeawarding time comes around. a a a The object of Francis, Mclntyre and Garringer being at the first tee is not so much to drum up interest in the “Fling,” but to drum up your interest in selecting a winning foursome, which, of course, will be quite beneficial to the selctor. It is not necessary that you play with the foursome in which you are listed on the starter sheet, that is merely the four whose scores will be totaled. a a is HAMILL REPORTS, HOWEVER, THAT MANY PLAYERS ARE FINDING IT TO THEIR LIKING TO MEET THE MEN WHu PLAY ABOUT THEIR PAR CF GAME AND MAKE THEIR ACQUAINTANCE, 60 MANY OF THE FOURSOMES THAT PLAY WILL BE THE SAME AS THE COMMITTEE PAIRS THEM UP. PRIZES WILL GO TO THE LOW NET SCORER OF THE MEET AND TO THE LOW NET TEAMS IN FIRST. SECOND AND THIRD PLACES. tt tt tt THE Roth family had some excitment at Avalon. Louis Roth was in the role of performer. Walking up to his ball on the fourth tee, Louis stepped into one that said 131 yards to the cup and never even hesitated. Neville Ewing, assistant pro, who told us about it, said the Roths, Helen, Wendell and F. G. Roth, were witnesses, got quite a kick out of the “ace” shot and Louis was treated in the club house afterward.

Double-headers will be played Friday and Saturday, with a single game Sunday. Around the American League circuit the belief is prevalent that the Athletics must be stopped in this series by the Yankees or the pennant race will be just about over. The Yankees are prepared to | “shoot the works’’ against the Athi letics, but do not share the opin- | ion that Philadelphia never will be ; headed after this series if the Mack- ' men win a majority of the games.

The A. A. standing changed again as a result of Wednesday’s games, in fact the battle being waged bv the first three clubs. Blues. Millers and Saints, is red hot, and promises to continue close all season. Minneapolis took the lead away from the Blues Tuesday and lost it back to the Kaws Wednesday, while St. Paul bumped off the Hoosiers again and stayed within shouting distance of the top. • Toledo fell into the league cellar by dropping two to Kansas City Wednesday, Milwaunee advancing from seventh to sixth and Columbus from eighth to seventh. Second Division Looms Indianapolis is hanging in fourth position, closely pressed, by the Louisville Colonels, who are fifth, and if something doesn't happen at Washington Park shortly to perk up the Betzelites the home nine appears destined to slip into the second division. St. Paul went on a base hit outing at the local park Wednesday and crashed the sphere for nineteen safeties, three Tribe flingers being punished. Lee Meadows, recently of the Pirates, couldn’t hold the enemy and a lead of 5 to 2, which the Indians held in the fifth inning, was sliced to 5 to 3 in the sixth. 5 to 4 in the seventh, and in the eighth the apostles scored twice and stepped out in front 6 to 5. Five in Ninth And in the ninth—oh, that ninth —St. Paul rallied again for a cluster of five markers and the best the Hoosiers could get was one. The final decision, therefore, was 11 to 6.
