AMATEUR GOLFERS CONTINUE PURSUIT OF BOBBY JONES
Atlantan's 69 Tops First Round Scores Triple Champion Encouraged by Steady Play Monday: Only Player to Break Par: Willing, Noyes Grab Second With 70s. BY FRANK GETTY Ynited Press Sports Editor MERION CRICKET CLUB. ARDMORE, Pa . Sept. 23.—Once more a golfing host took up today the usually vain pursuit of Bobby Jones. Out in front of the field, the Atlantan looked back serenely upon the struggle of many of his rivals to so much as qualify for match play in this thirty-fourth national amateur championship. * Bobs brilliant 69—the only score below par turned in during the first round—had done much to improve his morale, and even the mighty Mr. Jones needs an occasional lift in that direction.
It is no longer a secret that the year’s triple champion, who seeks his fourth major championship here at Merion, worried not a little over his chances in this tournament. Now that he has played as good and consistent a round as he ever accomplished in qualifying in the amateur. Bob admits himself that quite a weight has been lifted from his mind. Although it was another perfect day for golf, with a bright sun lifting the morning dew from the gleaming green fairways and just a touch of September freshness in the air, only a dozen spectators were gathered around the first tee an hour after the start. No one would have suspected a national championship was in progress. Jones, who led the field in the first round with a 69, one under par, was not due to start until afternoon, and the crowds at Merlon have eyes for no one else. Dr. O. F. Willing of Portland and 19-ycar-old Sidney Noyes, the Yale sophomore, were tied for second i place, with par 70s for their first j eighteen holes Morfday. The other prominent amateurs, including ten ex-champions and the present title holder, were scattered in the rear, from Francis Ouimet! and George Von Elm with their 73’s, ! to Jess Sweetser’s 81, and Jimmy | Johnstons well-nigh disastrous 83. The “first twenty” on the opening day at Merlon included, however, the names of many prominent con-
Michigan to Be Important Factor in Big Ten Grid Race
EDITOR'S NOTE—Following is the seventh article of the United Press aeries on Bis: Ten conference football tiros- j tiects. Wednesday’s article will discuss [ the University of Illinois. BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Sept. 23.—The University of Michigan, coached by ; Harry Kipke, youngest coach in the j Big Ten and one of the greatest j kickers ever developed in the middle west, promises to be an important factor in the 1930 Western Conference race. Although two teams—Northwestern and Purdue—appear to have stronger starting elevens than Michigan, the Wolverines are better fortified in reserve material than their rivals and loom as dangerous contenders for the championship. For the past two seasons the Wol- | verines have failed to live up to expectations, getting away to a weak start in October and then sweeping aside all rivals in the final month of the campaign. This year Kipke hopes to overcome the October jinx by shifting his efforts from an attempt to build up a “point a minute" back field and will depend largely upon a strong defense and good kicking. Two names famous in Michigan football tradition are included on the 1930 roster—Willie Heston Jr., son of Willie Heston of point-a-minue days, and Fielding Yost Jr., son of “Hurry Up" Yost, who built the Michigan teams in the days i when Michigan ruled the west.! Both are candidates for half back posts. Yost is a sophomore and Heston won his letter last year as a reserve. Eleven letter men of the 1929 squad were lost by graduation. Ten letter men from last year—Cornwell, Hewitt, Daniels and Dravelings. ends; Auer, tackle; Captain Simrall and Wheeler, quarter backs; Heston and Hudson, half backs, and j Morrison, full back—are back on deck, and Holmes, a substitute half j back, and Hozer, a substitute full back, both of whom won letters in 1928, have returned after a year's \ absence. Michigan's hopes rely chiefly on Kipke’s success in finding a capable quarter back and a trio of good men I for the center of the line. Captain Simrall may be used at quarter, but the sophomores Harry Newman

Both of the sophomores are fine forward passers and if either develops Michigan may rely more on the aerial game than it did either last year of in 1928.

3 Stars to Shine Again
WOOD '' .' : • 'Wrt -***£*
THE footbal season hasn’t started officially—but the race for allAmerica quarter back honors seems already settled. Think back to the last grid season, who were the athletes who provided the greatest inspirational leadership to their teams? That’s easy. Frank Carideo, quarter back of Notre Dame's national champions; Albie Booth, mighty atom of a sturdy Yale eleven, and Barry Wood. Harvard’s drop-kicking, forward-passing and ball-lugging artist. All proved their worth in sensational manner, and it appears that a major disaster in the form of fire, flood or plague is about all that can keep Messrs, Carideo, Booth and Wood off that all-America roster this fall.

Garden Lucky to Get j Even Break on Serap 5125.000 Gate Is Prospect for Sharkey-Campolo Bout Thursday: Jack to Receive SIOO,OOO and Argentinian $7,500: Boston Gob Confident. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY l nltrd Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Sept. 23.—Public apathy to the coming heavyweight bout between Jack Sharkey and Vittorio Campolo at Yankee stadium, Thursday night, may be directly charged to the Bostonian’s disappointments against Phil Scott and Max Schmeling. The public seems to be about ‘fed up” on Sharkey because of his repeated failures when his big chance came. Mental lapses, foul punches and just plain stubbornness have almost ruined what little popularity Sharkey ever commanded among the ring fans.
Madison Square Garden has guaranteed him SIOO,OOO to box CampoM fifteen rounds, or less, in the final outdoor show of the season. Campolo is getting only a bare $7,500. Already this year Sharkey has collected more than a quarter of a million dollars for less than six rounds of foul fighting, getting 1 SIOO,OOO for Iris fiasco with Phil Scott at Miami and $177,000 for | sending the heavyweight title to Germany by landing a low left on Max Schmeling. From indications today the Garden will be extremely fortunate to make expenses on the venture, with a $125,000 gate, which will just about cover expenses, consid- '< ered a liberal estimate. Fans just can’t see the percentage in paying ; $15.75 to see Sharkey in another of j his strange performances. If there was any real hope of Campolo’s getting rid of the Boston ; sailor the public might be willing to pay for the privilege of being there | when Sharkey “got his.” but the Argentinian's form is bad. Campolo has had only sixteen professional fights, and is shy on experience. Sharkey’s attitude toward the fight is typical. "I appreciate that if I lose this fight there’ll be no more SIOO,OOO shots for me,” Sharkey said. “So you can paste it in your hat that j little Jack isn't going to trip up on this one. I'm going to win under wraps.”

Trotcky’s Truths: We are washing over 2,000 cars a week and greasing over 500 cars a week. 50c for washing, 50c for greasing. Most of the time we are busy to capacity. Our effort is to give you more for your money than it is possible to get any place else. A number of places have put out 50c signs. We can’t prevent folks from imitating our price or our system. But they have not been flble to duplicate our finished work. We have lately installed some new ideas in our washing—we have constantly improved—and all we can say to you is that if you don’t consider our wash a 51.50 wash don’t pay for it. Please don’t think that because our price is low that we are giving you a “cheap” wash. We are giving you all you can possibly get, regardless of price.
