Elizabeth Dunn Plays Par Golf to Defeat Ruth White in City Finals

Yank Women Are Doped to Capture Cup Wills, Jacobs Expected to Win Opening Singles From British Rivals. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY tinted Press Staff Correspondent FOREST HILLS, N. Y.. Aug. 9 With Helen Wills and Helen Jacobs leading the attack, the United States today began its campaign to regain the Wightman cup from England in the seventh annual international women’s tennis series. The British won the trophy last year at Wimbledon, four matches to three, and the United States promises to regain the bowl by the same margin in the present competition. Three Matches Today After today's matches, two singles and two doubles, are over, the United States should gain an even break necessary to return the Wightman cup to native soil. Today’s schedule follows: Singles—Mi,* Wills vs. Mrs. Michael Watson: Miss Jacobs vs. Betty Nuthall. Doubles—Miss Wills and Edith Cross vs. Mrs Watson and Mrs. L. R. C. Mitchell. Miss Wills beat Mrs. Watson. 6-1, 6-2. in last year’s matches. The California queen should win again in straight sets. Miss Jacobs beat Miss Nuthall, 6-3. 6-1, in last year’s matches. The California red head should win again by about the same margin. The English should score their first victory in the doubles over Miss Wills and Miss Cross. The Two Helens Granted that the United States takes two of the opening day’s matches, Miss Jacobs and I ss Wills are expected to turn in the other two victories necessary to regain the cup in the singles matches Saturday. Although Mrs. Watson is ranked No. 5 among the world’s ten best women players, she is due to fall at the hands of the husky, harddriving Helen Jacobs. With Mrs. Mitchell favored to beat Edith Cross, the feature match of the series between Miss Wills and Miss Nuthall, Saturday, should see the United States clinch the cup.

Physical Contact Games Supply Real Test for Sportsmanship No Temper Restraint Called for in ‘Counting’ Contests, Such as Golf; Football Demands Self Control.

By KNITE ROCKNE T ii cs Special Correspondent SOUTH CEND, Ind., Aug. 9—l was talking to a golf player and a tennis enthusist the other day and both of them were rather joshing me regarding sportsmanship. They said there was more sportsmanship shown in golf and tennis than in football due to the fact there was very little wrangling and very little ill feeling created in this type of conpetition. But is this so?

Is there much of a test of sportsmanship in golf? First, it belongs to what might be called the "counting" type of competition where it is just a matter of counting strokes to see whether or net one man beats lanot he r. It is [true, one must be Ia gentleman so as to count all the strokes, but

neither one man nor the other can play his opponent’s weaknesses or interfere with him by means of bodily contact. The struggle in golf is largely within oneself. The game of tennis belongs to another class of competition where it is true you count strokes to see whether or not one man beats another, but one player can work on or play on the weaknesses of his opponent. Furthermore, in the game of tennis there are decisions as to whether or not the ball is in bounds or out of bounds. These will test one’s temper, so there is a mild test of sportsmanship in tennis. In tennis, a good sportsman will concede close decisions to his opponent though his temper is sorely tried if his opponent keeps playing his weakness with telling effect. But, in my opinion, the real test of sportsmanship comes in playing the bodily contact type of game such as football. Here a man has to stand up under sixty minutes of gruelling attack and if he is up against a team of opponents that are physically superior or an opponent who is continually knocking him down and assuming physical superiority, it takes a tremendous amount of restraint, a tremendous

That's a horse." . . . Big Red is what the grooms and the stable hands always called Man o’ War. . . . The great sport artist. Heyrr Werner Laufer. has a swell new car. . . . And he calls it his “Blue Heaven." . . . The Cards and the Pirates say that every’ team in the National League is against them. .. .

Pennant Raising for Tribe WHEN the Kansas City Blues, leadng the A. A. race, are at Washington park late next week, there will be an added attraction in the way of the raising of the 1928 pennant by the Indians previous to the game of Aug. 17, which s Saturday. The championshp banner will be sent aloft on the flagpole as a reminder of the fact the Betzeltes of last season finished out in front to cop the bunting in the American Association, the first time for Indianapolis since 1917. President Hickey will be present for the event and perhaps Judge Landis, baseball commissioner. Eddie Zwilling, manager of the Blues, was a member of 1917 Tribe champions.

Veteran Doubles Team Triumphs in Two Matches \ Hm United Prt * SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y„ Aug. 9. William T. Tilden and Francis T. Hunter won their two opening doubles matches in the Meadow Club invitational tournament today. They beat two Southampton boys, James Lee and William Richardson, in their first match, 6-0, 6-3, but were forced to the limit to eliminate Bruce Barnes of Texas and Eddie Jacobs of Baltimore, 5-7, 6-3, 6-4. Norman Farquharson and Paul De Ricou of the Oxford-Cambridge team defeated Malcolm T. Hill Jr. and H. L. Johnson of Boston, 6-4, 6-3. in the second round of doubles. Johnny Doeg, husky Californian, was to oppose Gregory Mangin this afternoon in singles semi-finals, while N. G. Farquharson of South Africa and Fritz Mercur of Pennsylvania were to clash the other bracket.

amount of emotional control, a tremendous amount of sportsmanship, so-called, to keep this young man in there playing the game according to Hoyle. These hard, physical contact games put the pressure on a man and are the real test of sportsmanship. You never will see any occasions of physical combat between competitors at a track meet, golf tournament, tennis tournament or sports of that kind. You see it very rarely in a football game or a hockey game, but when you consider the tremendous strain under which these young men are playing in the latter games, when you consider the hundreds of thousands of boys who play the game and the rare occurrences of muckerism, it is really remarkable.

Defending Champ Disposes of Country Club Opponent, 8 and 6. 39 FIRST NINE HOLES Tourney Title Match Ends on Twelfth Green. BY DICK MILLER Miss Elizabeth Dunn, city golf ; champion for the last three seasons, : clinched that title for another year | today when she gave Miss Ruth White of the Indianapolis Country Club what might be regarded as a golf lesson in the final match of the 1929 city tournament at Coffin municipal links by the score of 8 up and 6 to play. Miss Dunn represented Avalon Country Club in the city meet. Playing the part of a true champion, Miss Dunn made the defeat a little easier for Miss White to swallow by hanging up a 39, even woman's par on the first nine and just four strokes more than men’s par. She equalled men's par for the next three holes to end the match on the twelfth green. Miss White took a 46 on the first nine, having six ss, two 6s and only one 4. Five Up at Turn Miss Dunn won six of the first | nine holes, lost one and two were halved. She was five up at the turn. She won the next three holes straight to give the city tournament the shortest final match in history, it is believed. With the large gallery applauding her great drive on par the first three holes of the last nine, Miss Dunn agreed to play on into the clubhouse. She rewarded her followers by nicking off par on every hole until the eighteenth, which she scored in 2, .a birdie that gave her a 34 for the trip home, one under men’s par. She drove perfectly, recovered from any trouble she encountered and putted brilliantly. Miss Dunn started the match with a spectacular shot as she boosted one from the trap that went as far as Miss White’s shot from the fairway. A beautiful approach left the champion in a position to take two putts and win the hole with a 5. The next hole was halved in fives. Miss White played the third hole well and took two putts for a safe 5, but it was not good enough, as the champion ran down a fifteen-foot putt for a 4. The large gallery applauded. Miss White in Rough Miss White was in the rough on the next hole, had trouble getting out, but nearly sank her approach shot from off the green. Miss Dunr ran down a birdie 4 against men', par and won that hole. Miss Dunr. captured the fifth hole, 4 to 5. Miss Dunn gave Miss White something to shoot at when she sent her tee shot on the short 110-yard sixth hole fifteen feet from the pin. Miss Dunn got a 3 and Miss White a 5. Miss White won her first hole when Miss Dunn hit her drive into the rough and then was short on her approach. The Country Club player played par golf to win the seventh hole, 5-6. Miss White overdrove the green on the eighth hole, blit the champion was to the left and each got 4’s. Champ Takes Ninth The champion won the ninth hole to finish nine five up when she sent a daring shot from the tee over the trees by a short route to the green that is around a dog leg bend. Miss Dunn took a 4 and Miss White a 5. They matched shots down the tenth fairway, but Miss Dunn took ; the hole, 4 to 5. Trouble was on the challenger’s trail on the eleventh hole and she got over into the next fairway with her drive. Miss Dunn again got onto the green with a short approach third shot and took two safe putts for a 5. Miss White had a 6. Miss Dunn was on the green in two to get into the cup in 4 to win the last and deciding hole when Miss White’s club slipped and she was wide of the green on her second shot, taking a 5 to get in.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Miller Team Ends Visits This Season Series Finale Today Marks Kels’ Local Farewell; Saints Are Next. BY EDDIE ASH. The last of the Millers today! You won’t see ’em any more this year. That's how the baseball season has waned. St. Paul will be here Saturday in its last visit. And many people haven’t got their sun-tan yet. And furthermore, some of the Indians are short on base-hit sun-tan with men on bases. Thirteen were left stranded Thursday when the Millers took the third straight fracas of the series, 7 to 1. Ferd Schupp pitched against Handsome Jack Brillheart and the hits were thirteen for Minneapolis and twelve for the home nine, but the scoring of runs was a different narration. Figure it out for yourself. It was the fourth straight defeat for the Betzelites and the third knockdown during the Miller series. No. 13 Wins Handsome Jack wore the number 13 on his back to defy the jinx and got away with it. He simply closed up when hits meant runs. Secretary Clauer today scooted away to the Texas League to search for some talent, for it seems that circuit has a reputation for developing choice diamond pastimers. The idea of hi£ trip is to build up for next year and perhaps snare some tryouts for the closing days of the current campaign. At any rate, he’s gone scouting. Unlike the game of Wednesday, when a rookie outfielder with the Millers, Stanley Keyes, was the big noise, the dynamite Thursday was supplied by Earl Smith, the old man of the Minneapolis pastures. Facing a veteran A. A. hurler on the Tribe mound in Ferd Schupp, Smith tossed off the rust of old age and projected himself into the limelight by having a perfect day with the ash bludgeon, otherwise known as a bat. Perfect Day for Smitty The ancient Smith poled two singles, a triple and a home run, and drew a walk, giving him a perfect day and another valentine to send home. And he batted in three runs, making himself personally and individually a one-man victor over the Indians. If age is a handicap, "Sari Smith is a freak. His homer n the eighth bounced over the high .est field fence and out of the park. In every inning the Indians had one or more men on base, but the opportune base knock failed to materialize. Pitcher Schupp scored the lone Tribe run in the fifth when Warstler batted him in. It was a cruise for Brillheart.
