Anderson and Phelps Land Knockouts in Features

Fairly interesting bouts in spots rescued the fistic card from a washout at Ft. Harrison Tuesday night after the, army post boxing officials met several obstacles in their efforts to stage a feature show. The racketeers of the fight game evidently used their tricks to embarrass Captain Kennedy, matchmaker, after he ruled Henry Firpo off of the program when Firpo participated in a Louisville scrap on Monday night. Asa result the Harrison officials were compelled to substitute freely and to add to the obstacles placed in their path, Johnny Kilbane, former featherweight champion, who was slated to referee the main events, failed to appear. Placards at the two box offices announced this surprising situation. Six scraps were staged. In one of the scheduled ten-rounders, Owen Phelps. El Paso, knocked out Buck Easterling in the fourth

■ President and Mrs. Hocver were among the 12,000 fans who saw Earnshaw turn back the Senators, 7 to 3, on eight scattered hits. In the previous game, he had allowed only six blows, but two of his own errors, coupled with additional faulty fielding by his mates, had brought about his downfall. In registering his fourteenth victory against four defeats, Earnshaw was aided by timely hitting by his mates against Crowder and Fischer, two of the stars of the Washington mound staff. The win increased % the Athletics’ lead over the Senators to five and one-half gauges. ———— / Chlci.ro defeated St. Louis. 10 to 8 in twelve inninrs. in the other American Learue contest Tuesday.

The Cubs came from behind in the aftermath to score four runs off Flint Rhem in the eighth inning to clinch the contest. Brooklyn took advantage of the St. Louis setbacks to defeat Philadelphia. 5 to 1, and remain as a serious menace to the Cardinals’ 1031 flag winning hopes.

round. Easterling was fat and slow and was no match for the wellconditioned Phelps. In the other ten-rounder, Harold Anderson, light heavy, had plenty of trouble disposing of Bobby Vernon, Chicago, and it was the ninth round before the local slugger connected for a knockout. It was during a wild glove throwing fest when Anderson put over the punch that stretched his opponent for the count. W. Blaine Patton officiated in the main events and kept the boys moving. Results of other bouts follow: Ernie Metz took the verdict over Gene Teal In four rounds. They are Junior lightweights. Billy Watson featherweight knocked out Jackie Harris in the first round. Harris substituted for Young Curley and was in no shaDe. He is a downtown newsboy. A1 Thorne outpointed Billy Moore in six rounds. They are light heavies. It was a substitute bout for Pug Smith and Bert Wagner. Pat Murphv punched out a decision over Red Holloway in six rounds. The youthful Murphv had too much speed and endurance for the veteran Holloway. They are Junior welterweights.

on the mound for the Grays, let the Aces down with four hits, well scattered. Brilliant support by Morton at short stop for the Grays in accepting twelve assists without a bobble was mainly responsible for the Gray victory. Next Sunday the Grays play at Bargersville.

45,000 See Cub Games; Jam Causes One Death

By United Pren /CHICAGO, July B.—A new attendance record for baseball at Wrigley field existed today after approximately 45,000 fans paid to see the Chicago Cubs win a double-header from the St. Louis Cardinals Tuesday, 14-2 and 6-3.

THE difference between being national open golf champion and runner-up in the case of George Von Elm may be just the matter of a camera click. Von Elm, who had as many as three strokes’ advantage over Champion Billie Burke during the play-off for the open championship Sunday and Monday, always chopped away those leads and finally succumbed in the Polish boy. No doubt. Von Elm. instead of thinking back to a 12-inch putt he missed on the seventieth hole of the regular seventy-two-hole championship play last Saturday, and ultimately left him In a tie with Burke at 292 at the end of seventy-two holes will probably overlook that blunder, also others he pulled In the two thirty-six-hole play-off matches both Sunday and Monday to center his attention on the action nulled by a cameraman Monday. It was on the thirteenth hole, a short 146-yard par three, which Is an Iron shot to the green. Von Elm hooked his tee shot a bit to the left and was in the sand. Sinking his feet into the sand and taking a steady stance. George started his downstroke with the niblick. Just then, he narrated afterward, a camerman clicked the shutter. This caused him to drive the ball across the green into another trap on the other side, he added. When he finally got the ball into the cup he had taken five strokes. Burke, who was only ten feet from the can from the tee, was down in two safe putts and went two strokes into the lead right there. Von Elm tossed the niblick at his caddy’s feet and left the green muttering some very uncomplimentary remarks about the photographer. The trouble was. however, that Von Elm. out in front several times before and after that, never was able to hold his lead. Our observation in Toledo seemed to be that Burke is exceedingly popular with the golfing fraternity. He will make a popular successor to Bobby Jones, if that Is possible. There were aulte a few who were convinced that Bobby would have sewed up the championship in Toledo long before the seventy-two holes, regular championship route were played. tt tt tt IT so happened Saturday Burke had finished his seventy-two holes and was low with 292. Von Elm was playing hole 13 at the time and was informed of the position he held at that stage. He had five holes to play, all of them' par 4 holes. He could consume 22 strokes and still lead Burke by one stroke. He could take 23 strokes and tie. Instead of shooting the last holes, in par or undeY. Von Elm went one stroke over on each of the next four holes. He three-putted three greens, missing one a foot. When he walked up to the last tee. he knew he had to shoot a birdie to tie Burke. There were those in the gallery who felt that if Bobby Jones had been playing those last five holes, the Georgian would have tossed some 3’s Into the group of five par four holes. Von Elm lust wasn’t a champion under fire. tt p tt The gallery watching the pro-amateur at Anderson Monday saw some great shinny shooting, that is if they happened to be following the foursome composed of Ralph Stonehouse, Pleasant Run pro. and his partner. Bill Wilkinson, and George Lance, state amateur champion playing with Sammy Simpson as an amateur team. Each of these pairs turned in a best ball score of 63. Looking over their cards we found the best ball of the foursome was 58 strokes. There was not five on the card. At least one of the four players got a three on every one of the first nine holes, making the best ball score to that point 27. On the next six holes 4’s were the best, but on the last three holes the best ball was 3-2-2. totaling 31 coming in. There was a sensational shot on every hole. a a tt Neal Mclntyre and Doc McCaskey went up from Highland and scored a best ball, 65. That was not even in the prize money. There were three pairs of 63's that tied for the lead. It took four holes of playoff to decide the first three places. Bill Tinder, playing over his own course with a home bov partner, scored best ball 64. but had to be content with fourth place. And somebody said something about the new ball hurting scores. tt tt a JOHN NIBLACK, secretary of the Indianapolis Public Links Association, warns local golfers who wish to enter the public links cham-

Twin Card Is Divided Hildebrand Beats Brewers After Indians ‘Go Down’ in First. By Times Special MILWAUKEE, Jul? B.—lndians and Brewers were scheduled to struggle in the third tilt of the series today after splitting the double bill of Tuesday. It was kid’s day Tuesday and the twin attraction drew a total attendance of about 9,000. The Cream City thinks well of its ball team. In the first fracas Tuesday the home pastimers slaughtered the Tribe pitchers and Burwell, R. Miller and Hall all were thumped. The locals got away to a big lead in the early innings and extra base hits bounced off of their bats in rapidfire order. Jack Knott, on the Brewer mound, coasted in after his mates piled up the huge advantage. He struck out eight Hoosiers during the contest. The score was 12 to 6. Oral Hildebrand took up the Tribe hurling in the second fray and put the check to the Milwaukee attack, winning, 4 to 2. Narlesky and Koenecke of the Indians walloped home runs during the nightcap clash and Turgeon hit one for Milwaukee. Hildebrand blanked the locals in eight of the nine innings, Turgeon’s homer in the third coming with one runner on base. The young Tribe flinger was in several holes, but held his poise and escaped.

Max’s Manager Picks Italian for Next Go Winner of Sharkey-Walker Bout Is Sidetracked and Camera Is Chosen to Meet Schmeling in September; Jacobs Shows Caution. BY HENRY M’LEMORE > . United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 8. —Primo Camera—the ambling Alp to you—who, according to his own managerial board of control, is unfit to meet firstflight competition, has been named to meet Max Schmeling for the world's heavyweight championship in September. Camera w’as selected as the champion's next opponent Tuesday night, following a conference between Joe Jacobs, Schmeling’s manager, and President William F. Carey of Madison Square Garden.

Prior to Tuesday night's developments it was believed the cumbersome Italian would be side-tracked in favor of the winner of the July 22 bout between Mickey Walker, one-time king of the 160-pounders, and Jack Sharkey, the strong man from Boston, but Joe Jacobs, cautious to a fault, informed the Garden he preferred Camera to Sharkey, or any other man who could whip the Bostonian. Jacobs’ preference is not hard to understand when it is remembered that Sharkey all but knocked Schmeling’s ears off before fouling the German in their 1930 bout. Camera’s selection means unless the New York state athletic commission has a change of heart, the title bout will not be held in this state. Schmeling’s title was “vacated" and the champion suspended when he refused to’defend his title against Sharkey here this summer. Camera, who has had his share of troubles since landing in this coun-

try, is likely to be suspended a second time by the New York commission for his dealings with Schmeling. Under the commission's rules a fighter who deals with a suspended boxer is subject to suspension himself, -Camera, however, seems to thrive on lawsuits and such. Camera came up for discussion at the commission meeting Tuesday. The ring moguls notified Manager See that in the future all of Carnera's opponents must be approved by them, and that all exhibitions were "out” in New York state. N. B. A.
