Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK. Aug. 23 —There ought to be a law In editorial rooms compelling the young men who write boring pieces to look up Jim Corbett and cnew the fat with him at least once a year. It would do them a lot of good. Principally, it would stir their enthusiasms. a a a acme of the roanc men who ere writing boxing piece* seem to hve run compietele out of enthusiasm these d*v|. This nrobsbly because thev figure every fight u a fake, when the chances are that not more than nine out of teq are fakes, . a a a Corbett wtl be *4 years old next Seat. I. He's still sa enthusiast shoot she sport that broorht him his Arst distinction. Be admits that It Is nretty bad at ttmeo,... ‘Bat It mast hare somethin* or it ssoalda’t live.” a a a In a less Impressed mood. I would have been tempted to inquire "Why?’' hut Corbett manages always t oimpress you. People have lons since ceased to marvel at his perennial vouthfulnew He’s one man who simply refuses to be hts age. Hli hair has thinned out a little, there are streaks of gray, hts face has lost om* of Its distinctive athletic mold, ifi ?hort. you wouldn't taek him for Jackie Coogan. • a a Bat lost the same he’s atlU the youngest old gentleman la lots. Apd eery yarn about it too, I aaspect. The sparkle In his eye. the vigor of his stride sod the vivacity of his speech seem a constant rhallence to physical indolence. a a a TALKING about an old boxing match, he will get to hi* feet, dance around, feint, block and punch with the ghost of an ancient foe. There is just enough left of the original rhythms and speeds, the easy grace and smooth effortless movements, to make you appreciate what a picture he must have been against the Sullivan and the Jeffries of his time. a a a Corbett. If writing a book on practical Savcboiogv. It is bis theory that most * hts are won before the gong sounds This Is a formula, however, that should be employed Judiciously, adds Corbett. It seems that bright fellows don't scare as easily as the stupid ones Throughout his ring career Corbett used this form of psychology with great effect. mm* The most classic example of ita success was against the great John L., when Corbett. looked on by the public as a lamb being led to slaughter, walked Into the arena an hour before the fight dressed In an Ice cream suit, a flashy tie and a straw hat. In his band he twirled a bamboo cane. From hts lips came the whistled strains ol a popular song. . . . "I never could whistle but I figured the more noise I made the greater the effect would be.” a a a Corbett never learned what happened back In Sullivan's dressing room before the two of them were called to the ring: but he knows that word of his fantastical attire reached the old gladiator’s ears a few minutes after his arrival. a a a IT is his supposition that a couple of Sullivan's henchmen painted the picture this way: ‘‘John, you should have seen him. All dressed up like one of them stage lovers. White suit. Yellow tie. Walking cane. And whistling. You'll moider him.” Corbett pictures the great champion sitting there listening and forcing a gruff laugh. a a a “But the chances are be was doing a lot of thinking, and a lot of worrying, i This was a display of arrogaoce -nd disrespect that the old fellow hadn't experienced before. I have no way of knowing wbetaer It won the championship for me bit I’ll always believe it unnerved him enormously.”

LANCE, DIDDEL BATTLE FOR AMATEUR GOLF CROWN
Local Vet Seeks Title Surrendered in 1912 Defending Champ, After Fourth Consecutive Diadem, Equals Course Record to Humble Bassett in SemiFinals; Mitchell Beaten by Capital City Ace. BY DICK MILLER Times Staff Correspondent HILLS COURSE. French Lick. Ind., /ug. 23.—8i1l Diddell, veteran Indianapolis golf champion, who used to win these state championships quite regularly back around 1905 an dup until 1912. is making his second bid in three years to win back the championship that someone induced
him to pass on to the field. His attempt today was against the same stick fellow who repulsed his attempt two years ago over this same course, George Lance, the champion. It’s funny how history repeats itself, but two years ago Diddel reached the finals by defeating the local favorite, Dwight Mitchell, in a thrilling battle. Friday, Diddel found himself against this same young gentleman and again sent the home boys home feeling blue. In a way this final championship struggle for the I thirtieth annual Indiana Amateur Golf Association title is an all-Indianapolis affair. George Lance, who is seeking his fourth consecutive crown today, is a citizen of Indianapolis, although entered in this tournament from Terre Haute, because he has not I affiliated with any capital city club.

DID YOU KNOW THAT—BOSTON fans say Big Ed Morris isn't taking the job of pitching for the Red Sox seriously enough to suit them. . . . Horace Lisenbee is like Rube Walberg in that he has nerves ... he lacks self-con-fidence ... walks batters in the pinches. . . . Rabbit Maranville is a great hand to steady a pitcher . . when a moundsman starts to falter. Rabbit starts swearing at him ... calling his ancestors peculiar names and all that ... instead of the college yell which most players hand the pitcher when he starts going haywire . . . Rabbit says a few harsh words that perk the lads right up and they start throwing strikes all over the place.
i hole in one and a flock of birdies ! and pars. Lance continued to fire spectacular golf and ended the match on the twenty-sixth green 11 up and 10 to play. The Dlddel-Dwight Mitchell match was a thriller, Diddel being one down at the half-way mark. He j squared the match on the nineteenth hole by singing a long putt and then went into a lead that was 3 up at the twenty-seventh hole and 3 up and 1 to play at the finish. Champ for Three Years Back in 1905, Bill Diddel began a three-year rule of amateur golfers in this state. He won in 1910 and 1912, and then dropped out of the picture because the boys admitted they didn’t have a chance. He came back in 1918, but Herman Sielken beat him and then just twenty years after he won his first championship he entered the tournament in 1925, but since has been unable to win. In 1928 he reached the finals here but Lance beat him 9 and 7. Last year he lost a first round encounter. In this tournament his game has been very sound and he may have a chance today against Lance, unless the champion fires another round like he did Friday, in which event the committee probably will do like they did with Diddel in Iris reign, prevail upon Lance to quietly drop out of the picture and give somebody else a chance. Lance stated Friday he might be glad to do that. However, Bill Diddel and Eddie Zimmer of Indianapolis are the only other players, besides Lance, who have won the title three times in a row, but neither were able to win it four, and with that in mind it may have been that Diddel came to this tournament determined that no one else, not even Lance, would be a four-time winner.

Nuthall Looms as First Foreign U. S. Net Champ
Bu United Press FOREST HILLS, N. Y„ Aug. 23. The women's national singles championship of the United States, which has been sprouting wings quite unnoticed by the experts ever since Helen Wills became Mrs. Moody, appears about to take flight overseas for the first time in nearly half a century of tennis. Betty Nuthall, the blonde young English girl whose tennis career abroad has paralleled that of Mrs. Moody in this country, meets Mrs. Lawrence Harper of Oakland, Cal., in the finals of the forty-third national women's championship at Forest Hills this afternoon, and those who do not believe blonde Betty will triumph in straight sets are few and far between, as the saying goes. Mrs. Harper, a slender and most attractive young player, seeded No. 1 among the American players entered in the tournament, hardly has the game to stop a driving, calculating tennis expert such as England's representative. Miss Marjorie Morrill of Dedham, Mass., alone had the game to halt Miss Nuthall, and Miss Morrill missed out in the semi-finals Friday when she bowed to the English girl in three sets. The chances are that Miss Nuthall not only will carry the singles championship overseas for the first time, but will share with pretty little Sarah Palfrey of Boston the honor of winning the women’s doubles title. Miss Nuthall and Miss Palfrey meet Mrs. Harper and Miss Edith Cross of San Francisco in the doubles final this afternoon, and seem assured of victory.

Indians Occupy Cellar as They Meet Slugging Millers
Bu Times Soecial KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 23. Two defeats and back into the cellar was the experience of the Indians here Friday as they ended their series with the Blues and hustled away to Minneapolis to engage the slugging Millers in a three-day stand. Scores Friday were 3 to 2 and 5 to 4, seven innings, the second tilt being cut short to allow the Hoosiers to catch a train. Hildebrand hurled the twin bill opener and Jonnard operated on the Tribe mound in the second fracas until relieved by Burwell in the final inning. Both defeats were hard to take, the Blues snaring the second by a two-run rally in the last stanza. In the first encounter the Corridenites got one run in the ninth and had the tying run on third when Narlesky was fanned by Pea Ridge Day for the game-ending out. Hildebrand helped defeat himself with wild pitches and by allowing runners to gain big leads off base. Otherwise he pitched effectively and kept ten hits fairly well distributed.

Bv United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 23.—'The Chicago Cubs and the New’ York Giants, all square at the half way mirk of their all-important fourgame series, met today in another of their battles for the leadership of the National League. The Cubs increased their lead to three full games when they pounded three New York pitchers for a 12 to 4 victory Friday. That atoned, in part at least, for their 13 to 6 defeat of the previous day.

Friday's game, played before an over-flow crowd of 43,000, including 17,500 women admitted on ladies’ day passes, was a complete reversal of Wednesday's contest. It was the Cubs mho slugged fiercelf and played errorless ball instead of the Giants. Charlie Root ment the full route for the Cubs, yielding ten scattered hits while his mates clouted Donohue, Pruett and Parmelee for twelve safe blows. Four costly errors were charged against the Giants. Acting Manager Dave Bancroft planned to depend on Carl Hubbell today and Pat Malone was slated to start on the mound for the Cubs.
