Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS .

NEW YORK. July 21. SOME of the boys are saying that the Mar.dell-Singer fight was one of those things. I don't think so But It could have been. You never can tell about a prize fight these days. I don’t even believe what I see in the ring any more An honest prize fight Is a rarity. Encouraged by the indifference of the customers and the laxity of the politically - controlled commissions the fighters can get away with anything—and mostly they do. a f can understand the widespread irep tleUm and ainl*ter Innuendot that have rreeted the outcome of the Mandell-Sinrer one-round rlims*. It is not tastomurr for • firhtrr to win or lose on the oouore ini more nd whrn the rtnrsiders ore prewntM with *urh a spertsrle it look* even more prcullar and iupirlou than thr routine hippodromr. ana i I suppose thr public acceptance of these thir.es is a matter of habit and that it will be Just as easy to ret used to honest fights In time as dishonest ones, thoush I wish the bovs hadn't been so precipitous in making the switch, because it Is obvioua that the readjusting of the viewpoint ha produced critical dissension A large percentage of the critics agree the fight was waged on Its menu A scattered few think otherwise I hold no brief for either Mandell or Singer. To me they are Just a couple of fighters and generally speaking my respect for fighters is not very high. I've found that most of them are no more honest than they have to be. a a a IF the set-up had been different and the opportunities attractive enough the Mandell-Singer fight might readily have been placed in the bag and sewed up with heavy cord, but so far as I can determine there was no necessity for putting the fight in the bag. Mr. Harry Grayson. the boxing oracle, called the turn on Mandell four days before the fight. He saw him steaming out under blankets after long workouts in the hot July sun trying to melt off pounds. a a a It was clear to Mr. Grayson Ibat no man of MandeU's physical frailit; could submit lo that sort of ordeal day after day and be anything like himself in the ring. Mandell Is normally a Ito pounder, ar.d be scaled down to I34's. For every pound he peeled off he dropped that much Vitality and norr. ana Some of the pew holders were shocked to i 4te the lightweight champion go down Irons the punching of Singer when he stood up under heavier blows by Jimmy W<Larnin. It seems to be that this can be explained. Two years ago Manoell met hicLarnin and gave him a boxing lesson. At that time Mandell was a natural ligiitwelghi and he came into the ring with his lull strength His speed and cleverness dazzled the Irish slugger. Just as manv. remembering that show, expected It would i dazzle the slugging Singer.

WHAT Mandell did not have the other night was his speed, his cleverness or his strength. These were left behind in the training camp, along with the six or seven pounds he had shaved from his youthful frame. In between times Mandell met McLamin in two other bouts, and came through both in an upright finish. McLarnin is a bigger man, a harder hitter and a better fighter than Singer. This is another circumstance that added to the skeptics’ suspicions. a a a ! •If McLarnin. a weltcrweithl. couldn’t atop h.m. hour in the name of Pete’* hound hot. wa Sinter, an tindersiied lirhtweitht, able to put him out with a punch?” they Again the answer 1 believe is weight. a a a Mandell did not have to make weight Cor McLemin in either of those two fights. Conseauently he was able to carry all his strength and speed into the ring against him And even then it required all the generalship and cunning at his command to escape a knockout. It is even possible that the beatings he took from McLarnin helped soften him up for Singer. a a a ANOTHER thing, who ever called Mandell a great, lightweight; champion? I saw him win the title J from old man Rocky Kansas and if ; the referee had called the fight a draw he wouldn’t have robbed anybody. Moreover in the last twelve months Mandell has been steadily on the downgrade. The only creditable performance he has made in two years was against Tony Canzoneri, and Tony almost had shim out in one round. nuti What I'm trying to brint oat is that it didn’t takr much to brat him at his best, and at his worst, as hr fieurrd to br after shedding weight. Therefore, the quirk finish be suffered at the hands of Sinser did not seem enl rely illorical.

Babe Ruth Says

CLEVELAND, July 21. I've stood for a lot of kidding from some of the fans and readers over the way I picked the clubs to finish at the end of the pennant race. And most of the kidding has centered around the play of three clubs, Brooklyn and Cincinnati in the National League and Washington in

the American League. I’ll admit right here and now that I figured wrong on these three outfits. Brooklyn didn’t look as strong to me as the Robins have shown themselves to be since the

season opened, and a lot of other National League clubs haven’t ccme up to scratch. Without looking for any Brooklyn bombshells, it seems to me that the National League isn’t as strong as I had figured, and Brooklyn is staying up there partly because of its own strength and partly because the opposition isn’t as strong as usual. Now that is only my opinion. As concerns Washington, I’m ready to admit that the Senators have a lot of “it”—more than I figured and more than most of the other American League players figured, too. I have a hunch Griff’s team will be right up there around the top all season long, and just now they look like they had at least a fifty-fifty chance of winning.

A lot of fans have written me asking how I account for their sudden rise. Here’s the way I dope it o’/.. Part of their success is due to the uexpected good play of the veterans Sam Rice, Joe Judge and Muddy Ruel. Joe Cronin at shortstop has come through to give them just the amount of zip and infield pepper they need. But more important than all that is the uncanny trading ability shown by somebody on the Washington club. I don’t know whether it was Walter Johnson who did it or Clark Griffith himself. But the fellow who put over the Goslin for Manush and Crowder trade with the Browns and came through with that Shires trade with the White Sox, certaintly did put over a fast one. and Crowder are the tw</ most important factors in Washington’s drive right now; and those two between them will do more toward winning a pennant for Washington than all the other factors put together. Manush brings to the Senators some real hitting punch, and crowder, turned loose with the rest of those Washington pitchers, gives the Senators one of the best pitching staffs in the big leagues. Now a word about Cincinnati, a club I picked to finish third in the National League. The first big disappointment I’ve had as the Reds is the relatively poor season Bob Meusel is having. Then the weakness of Red pitching fooled me, too. I saw the Reds down south during the training season and they looked to me to have a whale of a fine pitching staff. The failure of that staff, together with the trading of Crits and Allen, has hurt, and there’s no need kidding about it. But even so I expect the Reds to play a lot better ball in the last half of the season than during the first half—and I won't he surprised to see them up there knocking for a berth in the first division before the season ends.

Local Girls Score 88 * in State Golf Play; Miss Dunn Falters

BY DICK MILLER Time* Staff Correspondent HAMMOND, Ind.. July 21.—Despite a par-shattering nine-hole round by Mrs. A. E. Bulson, Ft. Wayne, defending champion, it appeared today that Miss Lou Adams, runner-up last year, and Miss Ruth White, Indianapolis, would tie for medal honors in the women’s state golf tournament here with qualifying scores of 88. Mrs. Bulson was erratic over her first nine holes today, finishing with a 50, but on the second nine, regained the form that has won her three championships, and turned in a card for 40 for one stroke under women’s par. May Be Playoff The Misses White and Adams were almost even, hole for hole, turning in cards of 42-46—88, and it is probable they will play off the tie for medal honors later. Miss Elizabeth Dunn, Indianapolis city champion and former state titleholder, had a card sprinkled with 5s and 6s for an aggregate total of 91. She failed to live up to the promise of her practice rounds when she hit them straight and far down the sun-baked fairways. Among the absentees were Mrs. Ben C. Stevenson of Indianapolis, one of the early champions of the organization; Mrs. Scott Snyder of Ft. Wayne, another ex-champion; Mrs. Naomi Hull Gipson, who was one time a champion.

Big Field Tees Off in Chicago Western Amateur Draws Many Stars; Moe Won Last Year. BY BERT DEMBY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. July 21.—The greatest field of golfing stars the event ever has drawn teed off in the western amateur tournament today, seeking to wrest from Don Moe the championship which the Portland (Ore.) youth won last year. The field included most of America’s leading “non-profit” players and two of England’s best, besides a horde of dark horses and near stars, who brought the number of players to 200. As each golfer left the first tee he began a trip around one of Chicago’s hardest courses, a par 71 links, which does not have a single par five hole under 530 yards. The fairways are among the narrowest in the country. Although there wasn’t an outstanding favorite on the course, there were half a dozen names prominently mentioned. Among these were the two Englishmen, Cyril Tolley and T. Philip Perkins, each of whom has won th\> amateur championship of his own country. Perkins also was once runner-up to Bobby Jones in this country. Don Moe, by virtue of his holding the title, is not required to qualify and will not play until he and thirty-one others, the qualifiers, tee off Wednesday morning in match play. Johnny Goodman of Omaha announced today he will not enter the meet. Goodman, who defeated Bobby Jones last year in the national amateur, had been regarded as a strong contender. Today and Tuesday will be devoted to qualifying rounds, eighteen holes being played each day.

Thus the tong arm of the veteran Davis cup player again has been made available for competition which is hoped to bring the historic cup back from France. A tennis rule forbids a player to write “spot” news stories of a competition in which he is taking part, and it was this rule which had threatened to keep the lanky Philadelphian from this year’s competition. Wear said that at no time did the committee consider waiving the player-writer rule. However, the committee did waive another rule which will permit. Tilden to write of the practice periods of the United States players.
