Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK. July 15. Somo hours oack. the complaint was recorded In ihts - .olumn, backed up by professional te*tmony. that short odds of 8 to 5 against even so skilled a golfer as Bob Jones in an open championship were ridiculous. This was the price ’he bookmakers were laying against him out in Minneapolis. • • tt aitrthinf Sat fair ta tb* MNlllUtt plarr. There were at lea*t fifteen performer* In the tournament with a rwi rhanee to win. Treredent wn atainrt Jone*. He had won the tear before at Wlnaed root and no pla*rr had repeated la thl* etent alnte 191*. mam Moreover, he had onlv reeentl? returned from the other tide where at a certain rxoente of ohetlcal stamina and nerve control he had battled his wav to the front in both the Brttlsh amateur and the open. m m m Conatderint this and that It teemed a* if the odds ought to be much more liberal. Thia wai before the tournament started. m m m NOW that it is over I am willing to admit they were entirely too liberal. The Jones boy in a golf tournament is simply one of those sure things, like the electric rabbit at the dog track and the chariot race In the circus. mam At the beginning of the season he *el oot to win the four major v hampionships of golf. Alreadv he hat won three of them. Onlv the American amateur remain*, and though he was eliminated in the fir*t round last tall bv an unknown he figure* lo labe the event In stride. Apparent!* nothing can ston him. a mm It is also evident that the distinction of being the first golfer to make a clean jvweeo of th> tournament fl*id on both of the *at*r means more to the Jours bov than anvbodv realised lit the beginnine. Havinsr advanced this tar it isn - likely that h* will surrender to over confidence or adopt a less militant psvchooev ogams', amateur competition which he clearlv outclasses. m m a After she rlean sweeo—lf it comes—what Ihenr Well, the Jones bov will become more and more a less active figure In the big tournament*. He will feet that he has diarharged what he fancies I* a debt of gcatitude to his home town wrhlch Idollre* him and to more intimate friend* who have hailed him a* the coming king of golf ever since he was a youngster. 1 think thi* esplalns his extraordinary eagerness to compile a record no other golfer haa ever attempted. n a tt Normally this sort of thing. smacking somewhat as it does of Alexandrian ambition and theatrical amateurism. Is thoroughly unlike him. I suspect he wants to be In a position to say, "Well, there isn't anything left to do to prove that I can play golf, and now folks if you don't mind I'd just as soon pay a little attention to something else.” tt tt tt At heart the Jone* hot is kit, modest eesv-roinr and fun-loving. It ha* been a lonr time alnee *olf was fun to him. and of recent vear* it haa been labor of a taxing. exhausting, wrarkinr sort. This does not eiactlv |ibe with his notion of rerreation and he is eater to hare it done with. B tt tt Bv winning all the championships a golfer can nosslbiv win in one season he has hopes his friends will allow him to pass into semi-retirement, where it mav be possible for him to recapture the informal soirlt of the game he once knew. a a o T imagine it will be all right with the professionals if Jones retire* for all time and without delav. He has demonstrated concliaivelv that he ean do more with a golf hall than anv plaver the game has ever known. Until he came along the professionals represented the highest note in golf skifl. bat for the past five or six rears thev hare been a secondary school admittedly inferior to the 28-year-old amateur from the south. tt tt tt As Walter Hagen commented before the Interlachen tournament started open golf competition in this country has resolved itself into a mass battle against one player. a a tt •‘lt Is no longer a ouestion of who will win the championship these davs’* said Hagen "it is a question of who will crowd Jones the most.'*

MITT EXPERTS FAVOR MANDELL TO RETAIN CROWN
Singer Is Favorite, However Champion Denies Rumor Bout Is ‘in Bag’ for Challenger. BY DIXON STEWART t/nited Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. July 15.—Although reports that Thursday's fifteenround world lightweight championship bout Is “in the tag’’ for A1 Singer have made the New York challenger an 8 to 5 favorite, boxing circles are almost unanimous in picking Champion Sammy Mandell to retain his title. Singer's record shows li tie to qualify him as a title contender, and only the influence of the powerful clique financially interested in his career enabled him to got the Mandell bout without first proving his right by meeting the two leading contenders. Jack (Kid) Berg and Tony Canzoneri. No Dishonesty Found Investigation showed no evidence of dishonesty in connection with the bout and sport writers believe the "wise money” favors Singer solely because of the gamblers’ conviction that the clique controlling the New Yorker took no chances in matching their protege. Singer has been carefully "built up” by meeting second rate opponents and has won numerous queer appearing victories. On several occasions he was awarded technical knockouts over opponents still on their feet and apparently able to continue. One of his recent opponents went to the floor and was counted out from an invisible punch —the blow which apparently ended the fight missing by at least six inches. Mandell has withstood the heaviest punches of Jimmy McLamin, acknowledged king of present day punchers, for fifteen rounds and is a master boxer. He is reputed to be slipping, but if he is one-half as good as he was when he fought McLarnin he should give the inexperienced Singer a bad beating. End Training Both fighters completed their training Monday with impressive workouts and will indulge in only light gymnasium work today and Wednesday. Mandell removed all worries about his inability to make the lightweight limit by weighing in at 135 pounds after Monday’s boxing session and said he would be strong at the weight. Sammy is indignant at rumors that he is selling his title and said he had a large sum to bet that he would win. CLORE AND CHAPPELL Randall Clore. Crawfordsville, and Willard Chappell. Indianapolis, will meet in the six-round main go on the free fistic program at Broad Ripple arena Thursday night. Prelim boys are being lined up for the supporting bouts and the schedule calls for thirty rounds in all. Matchmaker Parker is searching for aggressive lads to use in a number of four-rounders.
ranked No. 6 nationally, was forced to extend himself in his first round match to defeat a comparative unknown. Karl Hodge, St. Louis. Mercur's margin was 7-5, 9-7. In the feature match of the day, Harris Coggeshall, Des Moines veteran, defeated George O’Connell, Chicago, 6-3. 6-3. Coggeshall relied on his steady back court play to wear down the Chicago entry and force his younger opponent to drive into the net. Junior Coen, Kansas City, entered the second round, defeating C. Vincent Sneed, Independence, in two love sets. The field of entrants will be reduced to sixteen at the end of sec-ond-round play today. The semifinals and finals in both the singles and doubles championships will be played this week-end.

The fourth and final struggle of the series will be played tonight, after which the Indians will visit Columbus and Toledo to be gone until July 26. Wednesday is an offday for the Tribe pastimers. The Monday defeat cut the Lousville league lead to five games and it's a sure thing the runner-up St. Paul Saints remained up late awaiting the returns from Indianapolis. Nachand Doubles Going into the ninth Monday, Van Alstyne had a shutout in sight when Nachand opened with a double and Narlesky made a bad throw after scooping up Branom’s grounder, placing Nachand on third and Branom on first. Layne forced Branom, Nachand scoring. Ganzel walked. Layne advanced to the hot corner on Olivares’ sacrifice fly and the bases were filled when Autry drew a pass, but Van Alstyne refused to crack and Penner forced Autry for the game-ending out. Bill Narlesky again was an important factor in the Tribe triumph, poling three hits, sacrificing once, scoring once and being responsible for three other markers. His single in the third drove in two mates and in the fifth he scored Hoffman with a base knock. On the defense the new infielder made a great play on Olivares’ hot shot in the fifth and turned it into a two-ply killing to retire the side as Branom's dash across the plate was wasted, Ganzel Out at Plate And in the seventh, with Ganzel on second and Olivares on first with two out, Autry bounced an infield hit toward third, and when Narlesky barely touched it, Ganzel turned the hot corner and sprinted for the plate, only to be nailed on a close decision when Narlesky made a quick recovery and tossed to Sprinz. It was lightning work. Narlesky’s timely hit in the third upset Colonel strategy, Penner walking Barnhart to fill the sacks with two out. A single to right shot off Bill’s bat, scoring Frazier and Warstler. And Connolly, next up, struck out.
