YOUNG STARS TOP FIELD IN AMATEUR LINKS TITLE EVENT
Lehman, Hoosier Ace, Ranks as Big Threat
Crown Point Golfer Shares Pre-Tourney Honors With Goodman, Kocsis and Seaver for Play at Chicago Opening Next Monday; Johnston Leads Vets. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY linitd Pren Staff Correipondcnt CHICAGO, Aug. 26.—There are a dozen or more young golfers in the field of 152 who will compete in the national amateur golf championship at Beverly Country Club, Chicago, beginning next Monday, and from this group is likely to come Bobby Jones’ successor. Four of the leaders of the young delegation are Johnny Goodman, Omaha, Neb.; Johnny Lehman, Crown Point, Ind.; Charles Kocsis, Detroit, and Charley Seaver, Los Angeles. Goodman blossomed into brief golf fame when he “rode the rods” to Pebble Beach, Cal., and eliminated Bobby Jones in the first round of the 1929 tournament. Around the middle west they are saying: “Goodman’s hot this year.” Johnny Lehman won the western amateur on the Beverly links last year and is certain to make a strong bid for the national title because of his familiarity with the course.

Kennedy, army matchmaker, received a telegram today from Johnny Keyes, manager of Wolgast, that he would have his fighter here Thursday. Wolgast is recognized as world’s flyweight champion by the New York and Pennsylvania state boxing commissions and the 1931 Everlast record book. MRS.

Simmons Looks Over Shires; A’s, Cubs Bid for Brewer Ace
By United Pres* MILWAUKEE, Wis., Aug. 26. Sale of C. Arthur Shires, Milwaukee Brewer first baseman, was reported today as likely within the week. The Philadelphia Athletics, Chi-

INDIANAPOLIS Athletic Club championship was played today over the Speedway course. The going was a bit damp this morning. As the day progressed the greens became faster and those who started early found each one anew study. It was a thirty-six-hole event and quite a turnout was on hand in kuest of Eddie Zimmer’s crown. Homer Lathrop. chairman of the tournament, insured himself of having Eddie in the event by making him one of the tournament committee. tt a tt Naturally the low gross shooter for the thirty-six holes will be the 1931 Indianapolis Athletic Club champion. There will be many other prizes and all of the awards will be made Thursday night at a dinner at the clubhouse. tt tt Kiwanis Club moves over to Lebanon for their monthly tournament Thursday. The Play will be over the Ulen Country Club course. A1 Ostermeyer, chairman, of the golf committee, has arranged this month’s tournament in the form of a golf derby in hope of adding interest and new zip to the affair. In this new plan, every Kiwanian will take part as well as the golfers. tt tt tt The big fun will begin after the tournament plav when a chicken dinner will be served in the clubhouse and the prizes will be distributed. The concluding chapter written on the day’s program will •be musical entertainment. tt it u A LARGE group of workmen were rebuilding the eighth green at South Grove. That, you know, is the green which had the “goats” of players who daily use the popular municipal links, not to mention those who just drop in- now and then and try to master the layout. tt tt The green is located poorly in relation to the shot from the tee. The center of the green was knobby. Once a putt from the back edge got over the knob, it usually stopped on the front edge. Three putts were considered par on that green and the players certainly will welcome the change. It has been moved south to give a better shot from the tee and the front edge has been elevated removing some of the abrupt downhill roll. tt tt tt Various other greens also are being weeded at South prove. They are going at the work systematically too, taking a strip of the green at a time so as not to miss any of the prevelant water grass and other destructive growths. tt tt tt Indianapolis made a bid for the national public links championship for 1932 when the event was played this year at St. Paul. U. S. G. A. looked with favor upon the invitation and we understand Indianapolis stands a great chance of getting the tournament either in 1932 or 1933. Os course, we would prefer it in 1933 as we are almost certain of having one of the finest, if not the best, municipal courses in the country in the new Coffin course by 1933. It will be opened next year. tt a a In event the tournament is awarded Indianapolis and Coffin should not be ready by tournament time, the event could be held at South Grove. Repairs to the greens, perhaps one or two new ones, and permitting of the rough to grow, would make that course several strokes harder. And if South Grove is not hard enough, now about Pheasant Run or Riverside? SINCLAIR SELLS STABLE By United Press SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y„ Aug. 26.—Harry F. Sinclair, whose Rancocafi stable is the third largest racing establishment in the country, will dispose of all his horses in training, he said today. The poisoning of Sinclair’s Ladana and the consequent barring of Rancocas stable horses from overnight races is believed responsible for his decision.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
I By Times Special CLEVELAND, Aug. 26.—Earl Averill is a great man for promises—and the funny part of it all is that he fulfills them. At New Orleans last spring the pride of Snohomish was asked how many home runs he thought he ought to hit this season. After careful consideration of his first | year in the big league, when he hit eighteen, and his second-year crop of nineteen, he remarked: “Well, I don’t think 30 will be too many this year. Yes, I guess I’ll hit 30.” Just the other day he hit No. 27. With a full month of baseball ahead of him, it looks as if nothing less than an earthquake can stop him short of his promise. Being a queer sort of guy, the Earl has to have a special reason for hitting every home run. For instance, a pair of newly-weds phoned the ball park while Cleveland was playing the Senators, and asked the man in the office to ask Earl to hit a home run for them. The re-
cago Cubs and St. Louis Browns were said to be potential purchasers. A1 Simmons, Connie Mack’s star outfielder, has been watching the “Great One” in action the last few days and appeared impressed. If neither the Athletics nor the Cubs meet the price of Louis Navin, president of the Brewers, it was said Shires would be sold to the Browns. Shires leads the Americap Association batters with an average of .385.
Blue Football Squad Leaves
With the departure today of the Shortridge football squad, fortyseven strong, for the annual training trip at Camp Crosley, the third Indianapolis high school had started work for the coming season.

Cathedral returned today from ,Gamp Crosley after a ten-day training session with Coach .Toe Dienhart. Approximately forty Tech athletes will leave Saturday for Camp Tecumseh, on the Tippecanoe river. Manual, Broad Ripple and Park school will get into action later.

Saints Use Betts and Tribe Is Nosed Out * Three Apostle Double Plays Help Kill Off Indian Attack; Smith Is Bombarded in First Round; Young Kroner Connects for Home Run. By Time* Special ST. PAUL, Aug. 26.—The league-leading Saints made their first inning so big in the series second battle Tuesday the Indians never caught up and pitcher Huck Betts added one more victory to his long collection over Hoosier clubs, 4 to 2. George Smith was the victim of a three-run Apostle attack in the opening round and was relieved by Hildebrand, who was knocked out on Monday. This time “Hildie" baffled the A. A. pacemakers, but his good pitching was wasted as Betts continued to ride, out in front. Hildebrand blanked the locals during his turn in the box and was removed for a pinch hitter, the Saints scoring one more tally when Archie Campbell took up the toil for the Tribesmen.
The defeat knocked the Indians out of undisputed possession of second place and they were sharing the runner-up position with Kansas City today. In fourth place are the Brewers, merely a jump behind Blues and Indians. The Hoosiers collected one more hit than the Saints Tuesday, but falied to bunch the blows as well. Three double plays behind Betts played an important factor in keeping down the Tribe score. Johnny Kroner, new Indian third sacker, hit one for the circuit in the third for the Indians’ first marker against Betts, and in the fourth, after two down, Len Koenecke singled, stole second and scored on Riddle's single. Tom Angley, heavy gunsmith backstop, lost an argument to Umpire Clayton in the second stanza and was banished. The umpire appeared to be defending a bad decision when he sent robust Tom to the showers. Two more tilts remain in the series, today and Thursday, and Walter Miller was slated to hurl for the Indians this afternoon. Jonah Goldman. Tribe shortstopner, was held hltl3s in the second strußitle with the league-leaders at St. Paul Tuesday, but turned in a snappy fielding game, accenting seven chances without a miss. Fitzgerald moved fast in center field territory and gathered in five putouts. but was another Indian who was bafTled bv Huck Betts. Seventy-Five Grand Koenecke solved the veteran Betts for two singles. McCann and Sigafoos also found safe spots twice. Smith was knocked out before he could retire the side In the opening session. The Saints scored three times with one out when Hildebrand was called to the box. Hopkins sent a violent liner at Hildebrand and the young Tribe hurler snared it and doubled Morrissey off first. Hildebrand held the league leaders to three hits m five and two-thirds innings. The Milwaukee winning streak was stopped at seven Tuesday when the Columbus Red Birds won. 6 to 5. Russ Miller, former Indian, hurled high-class ball tor the Birds until the ninth when the Brewers rallied and Mike Cvengros. another former Hoosier. took up the toil. Manager O’Rourke played sensational ball for the Brewers and collected three hits. Joel Hunt of Columbus connected for the circuit with the bases loaded in the third. Gullic went In as a pinch hitter for Turgeon of Milwaukee in the ninth and crashed one over the fence. Shea’s single with the bases filled was the deciding blow in the Louisville-Min-neapolis tilt, the Colonels winning. 4 to 2. Williams relieved Mays In the ninth and halted a Miller rally. Toledo made five errors and the Blues captured the Tuesday fracas at Kansas City. 4 to 3. Dugas got two hits for the winners, one for the circuit and the other for two cushions. The Newark Bears of the International League have bought pitcher Lil Stoner from Ft. Worth of the Texas League.
