Slattery arrived in New York Monday from his training camp at Speculator, N. Y., and was unimpressive in his final four-round workout for the bout. He appeared fat and slow and lacked the defensive skill which has enabled him to defeat Rosenbloom in four of their six previous contests.

Open Golf Scores High; Russell Stonehouse Leads

With half the field of ninety-four already in, Ralph Stonehouse, Pleasant Run pro, paced the first eighteen-hole round of the Indiana open golf championship at Speedway course today with a par 71. Stonehouse was two over par going out, but on the incoming nine, snagged birdies on the thirteenth and eighteenth greens with long putts. Russell Stonehouse of Riverside, brother of the leader, had a 72, while Chuck Garringer, Speedway pro, required a 73 on his home course. George Lance, four times state amateur champion, got into trouble and turned in a 74. Johnny Watson, defending champion, also had 74. Scores generally were unusually high. Kaiph Stonehouse.

94 HOOSIER GOLFERS BATTLE FOR OPEN CROWN

Six Former Champions Top Pro, Amateur List Johnny Watson, Title Defender, Neil Mclntyre, Guy Paulsen and George Lance, State Simon Pure Ruler, Favorites in 72-Hole Event. BY DICK MILLE R Cooling breezes formed a perfect setting for the s’zzling pace promised in the sixteenth annual Indiana state open golf championship, which got under way at Speedway course today. A field of ninety-four leading pros and amateurs, a record entry, battled over the tricky race track layout. Two rounds of eighteen holees each were on today’s card, and the seventy-two-hole title action will be completed Wednesday with the same program. In case of a tie, an eighteenhole playoff will be staged Thursday afternoon.

The largest field ever to take part in a pro-amateur tournament batted the gutta percha around the race track course Monday. There were forty-seven teams in the event and a remarkably low best ball score of 64, turned in by Herb Walters, Gary pro., playing with Johnny Lybrook, amateur, won the honors in seven strokes undsr par. Six Champs Enter On the basis of the best ball score It is reasonable to assume that some of the sterling shooters in the open event today and Wednesday will “get hot and turn in some underpar 71 rounds. However, the majority of the entrants feel that a score of 290 will win the event, which is six more than par for the four rounds. In the field today are six former champions and all with good golf games to aid their quest for the 1931 title. Johnny Watson ot South Bend, winner last year at Gary, and Neal Mclntyre, Highland’s big pro and winner of 1927 and 1929, are outstanding contenders. Paulsen Is Favorite Guy Paulsen, Ft. Wayne, who was in the thick of the fight for the national open at Toledo early in July, is another favorite to win the state event, a title he won in 1928. Massie Miller, unattached local pro and one of the leading golf shooters in the country as well as qualifier in the national open, joined the Indiana P. G. A. today and entered the field. Only one advance entry failed to appear. Fosdick Goodrich, prominent Pleasant Run amateur player being stricken with illness and was forced to withdraw. The outside chances are accorded Ervin Nelson of Culver, winner in 1924; Wally Nelson of Bloomington, winner in 1919, and Johnny Simpson of Terre Haute, the only amateur to ever win the open back in 1920. While practically every professional in the state who is a member of the Indiana and National p. G. A. is in the field, more than half of the group of amateurs. George Lance, four times state amateur champion, heads the simon pure stars. Ralph Stonehouse and Freddie McDermott, both leading professional players who have been in the thick of the title fight for several', years, are dark horse contenders.

against the "best available opponent” on a Milk Fund charity show in New York in June —if he follows the advice of his manager, Joe Jacobs. Jacobs announced his plans for the two fights before sailing for Germany Monday night on the S. S. Bremen. He made it clear that he did not have authority to sign for the bouts without Schmeling’s approval. He plans to visit with Schmeling and early in September hopes to complete negotiations for the bouts. Jacobs is convinced that a bout with walker at Miami would be a big money maker. Jacobs’ ambitious program may not go through, however, as Schmeling has shown no anxiety to fight often. The sturdy Teuton promised to return to America for a second fight with Jack Sharkey, after winning his title, in 1930, and he signed for two fights in 1931, only to go back on his promise both times.

FAGG FACES LAWLESS Local Battler Faces Welter Star at Pittsburgh Thursday. Donald Fagg, local welterweight, left today for Pittsburgh, where he is to meet Bucky Lawless of Syracuse Thursday night in the feature ten-round match at Hickey park. Fagg recently whipped Buck McTiernan, middleweight pride of Pittsburgh. Lawless is rated fourth in the middleweight division in the current issue of the Ring magazine. NINE ENTER RACE Dealers File Cars for Stock Event at Gardens Sunday. Nine entries have been received for the stock car race at Walnut Gardens speedway Sunday for Chevrolets and model A Fords. Bases and Edwards, west side Chevrolet dealers, and Tommy Turner Ford Sales Company have filed entries for the fifty-mile event. PLAY FOR NET CROWN By United 9 ress EASTHAMPTON, N. Y.. Aug. 4.

Lefty Grove Aims at Two Slab Marks After 13 Wins in Row

By United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 4.—With the official winning of the 1931 American League pennant now a mere formality, the Philadelphia Athletics are turning their attention to the establishing cf team and individual records.

Ditchers in the new series starting today and there’s no telling what will happen. Some of the hurlers are exhausted and Bill Burwell still lacks strength after a siege of sickness. Catcher Tom Angtey was on the side lines again Monday night incapacitated bv boils. The final out Monday night was on a hard smash by Devormer that nearly crippled Hildebrand. The Tribe liinger was In danger on the drive, but cuffed it enough to permit Goldman to grab the agate and retire the runner at first. Riddle's fast hopper in the sixth tock a bad bounce and clipped Knickerbocker on the chin, but the Hen second sacker recovered it in time to peg out Johnny. Koehler at third was struck on the knee bv Bedore’s smash in the first and it scooted away for a hit. Bedore raced back on the grass to his left in the first and made a good stop and throw on Bevo Lebourveau. The Hen slugger was held hitless bv Hildebrand. Bedore turned in fancy plays in the fourth and fifth on Devormer and Mulleavy. He ran back for Mulleavy’s flv and took the sphere bv a neat catch. Bruno Haas singled in the fourth, reached second on Koehler’s single, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on a passed ball. Paid attendance was 2.012. It was free night for women and children and total attendance was 5.387. The Milwaukee series will be played off as follows: Two games this afternoon, one game Wednesday night, two games Thursday afternoon and one game Friday night.

New Pilot in Charge of Brewer Pastimers Milwaukee Invades Tribe Park Under Frank O'Rourke's Management; 6-Game Series Opens With Twin Bill Today; Hildebrand Beats Hens Monday. BY EDDIE ASH Tlrars Snort* Editor With the Milwaukee Brewers in town and under the new management of Frank O'Rourke, the Indians of Emmett McCann face a heavy program in defense of the runner-up position in the A. A. race. Two postponed games arc to be played off during the visit of the Cream City pastimers, making six contests in four days and beginning with a doubleheader this afternoon. O'Rourke was appointed Brewer pilot Monday night, succeeding Marty Berghammer, and will take charge of the team here today. The change was announced by Louis Nahin. Milwaukee president. O'Rourke is a veteran third sacker who has seen little action this year with the St. Louis Browns, the parent club of the Brewers. He was the regular third sacker for the Brownies until last season and formerly played with the Detroit Tigers. Berghammer was appointed Milwaukee boss during the 1929 season. It is said O'Rourke will be a playing manager, the same as McCann of the Indians. The other six A. A. pilots are bench pilots.

Oral Hildebrand turned in a 6-to-3 victory for the Tribesmen over the Toledo Hens under the lights here Monday night, giving the locals three out of four in the series. Jumping off with a rally good for four runs in the first inning, the Indians never were headed and the contest was run off in 1:41, the fastest night game of the year. Narlesky Triples - Lefty Shoffner started on the Hen mound and was knocked out in the first round, Van Gilder, veteran right-hander, taking up the toil after two outs and four Tribe markers in. Bill Narlesky’s triple driving in two mates was the high light of the bombardment and sent Shoffner to an early shower. Goldman led off the attack with a single and the big crowd received a thrill right at the outset as the home nine put Shoffner on the run. Hildebrand held the enemy to seven hits and the first two runs by Toledo were unearned. It was only in the fourth and sixth stanzas that the visitors were able to solve Hildie for more than one hit to an inning. Van Gilder puzzled the Hoosiers after relieving Shoffner and blanked them until the fifth, when Charlie High v tripled after one out and scored on McCann’s infield roller. Three Hits for Koenecke The last Tribe marker was registered in the eighth. McCann was struck by a pitched ball, advanced to second on Koenecke’s third hit and scored on Bedore's single after Fitzgerald fanned. Koenecke had a perfect record at the plate with three

ATJG. 4, 1931

singles and a walk and hiked his batting average several points. The fielding feature was a running, diving catch by Charlie High in the eighth. After one out Wingard singled and on the hit and run Bruno Haas sent a solid smash to right that looked good and Wingard set sail on the paths. High, playing deep, came in fast, left his feet and rolled over and up clinging to the sphere. Wingard was doubled up on a throw from High to McCann. It was a remarkable play for a veteran to accomplish. High got two of the Tribe’s ten hits and drew one walk. Local Nine Lains Finals Hayward Barcus of Indianapolis and Clinton advanced to the state championship round of the American Legion junior baseball play with victories in sectional tilts Monday. Hayward Earcus defeated Lawrenceburg, 8 to 5,, in the finals at Greensburg Monday and will meet Princeton here Thursday afternoon,, Clinton knocked off Kokomo, 4 to 2, in the finals at Frankfort and will oppose South Bend Thursday. The winners will battle for the Hoosier crown Friday afternoon and the right to enter the national regional tourney.
