INDIANA golfers, professional and amateur, will seek honors in three major tournaments during the next fifteen days, which practically will ring down the curtain of competitive golf in Hoosierdom for 1931. Celebration of the coming events gets under wav tonight at South Grove clubhouse when the six local youths who will make up the Indianapolis Public Links team will be feted and sent on their way to St. Paul, where they will take part in the U. S. G. A. national tournament next week. The affair tonight is the idea of Kenneth Loucks. president of the South Grove Club, and its members. In Billy Heinlein. John McGuire. Dave Mitchell. Bill Russell. Mike Poliak and Edwin Beeson. Indianapolis fans realize they have some young stock that is up and coming in this old Scotch game. tt a ft WHILE the sextet of young amateurs are in St. Paul, the boys back home will be engaging in the state’s biggest money affair, the Indiana open championship at Speedway next Tuesday and Wednesday. tt a tt Right now there is much discussion as to who will win this event. George Lance being prominently mentioned as an amateur with a chance. In the pro field. Guy Paulsen of Ft. Wayne. Neal Mclntyre. Dick Nelson. Ralph Stonehouse and Walter Murray of Gary are prominently picked as outstanding professional choices. As for th escore. many dopesters believe 290 will win.

Games; Braves Upset Cards

By United Brett NEW YORK, July 30.—Philadelphia Athletics defeated St. Louis, 4 to 2, Wednesday to stretch their American League leadership to twelve games as the Senators bowed before Wes Ferrell and the Cleveland Indians, 6 to 0. Leroy Mahaffey held the Browns to two hits until the ninth inning when Rube Walberg was rushed to his rescue in time to stop a St. Louis rally. Ferrell allowed Washington ten hits in registering the shutout, but he was a master at that old trick of retiring batters in the pinch. Joe Vosmik with a homer and triple, featured Cleveland’s attack. New York defeated Chicago 10 to 4 while Detroit and Boston were dividing a double heade-r in the other American League games. The Red Sox won the first game 5 to 4 in ten innings, but the Tigers took the second, 8 to 6. Leadership of the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League was cut to eight games when Ed Brandt hurled the Boston Braves to a 3 to 0 victory. Brandt allowed only five scattered hits. New York climbed to second place

than he always has. for we believe he can play that French Lick course around par any old day. But the field of contenders has improved its game. It is rumored that George will not go to French Lick this year to defend his crown. We hope the rumor is wrong. Indiana likes to see its champions beaten and if they can not be beaten then they are loud to praise them for their ability to win. Every indication polhtg to the fact that George will encounter considerable opposition at French Lick and because it looks like good opposition, fans of the state would like to be able to compare it with Lance and see Just how good it is. Jess Mossier has written Johnny Lehman inviting the ex-amateur champ and former Big Ten title holder to compete In the state tournament. Johnny lives in Crown Point and it has been some time since he took part in a state championship. We have reasons to believe should he come down. George Lance will be right on the job. if he had an idea of not playing this year. Turf Hero Brings $125 By United Press CHICAGO, July 30.—Mad Play, winner of the Belmont stakes in 1924 and other prominent races, has been sold for $125. The 10-year-old horse, whose winnings total $194,535, was auctioned off Wednesday by Hal Price Headley of Kentucky and was bought by M. H. Karnes of Chicago. Mad Play, who ran in the colors of Harry F. Sinclair’s Rancocas stable when in his prime, failed as a sire and hasn’t been able to win claiming races in the last few years.

S3OO Single By Timet Special NEW YORK, July 30—Babe Ruth has lost another baseball bet. When Wiley Moore singled in the twelfth inning of a recent game, it was worth S3OO to the Boston Red Sox hurler and cost Babe the same amount. Back in 1928, when both were with the Yankees, the Bambino bet Cy he wouldn’t get a hit all season—and the hurler got two. Down south last spring, Babe asked for a chance to get even and Cy wagered he would get half a dozen safeties this season. That one in the twelfth inning was his sixth and Babe again was obliged to pay off.

Vines has played the best tennis of the tourney and turned back Cliff Gutter Wednesday while Doeg had difficulty in trimming youthful Jack Tidball of California. Doubles play continued in all classes today.
