Talking it over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, June 9.—Two notable major league veterans passed out of the picture almost simultaneously the other day. One was Harry Heilmann of the Cincinnati Reds, and the other was Waite Hoyt of the Brooklyn*. Only a few chaste lines of type chronicled the passing of the two men. It isn’t much of a news story when a faded hero reaches the end of the road. In hla dav Heilmann wai one of the greatest right-handed hitters in baseball and as a pitcher Hovt was not far behind in artistry and merit. Both did the finest work In the American League. It w**n t until thev had begun to silo that they moved over Into the National. Oddlv. Heilmann and Hoyt were similar tvnea- gav fellows, convivial and far above the average In mental acuteness and personality. Thev mingled with the smart crowds and th# spirited sets. Thev took their fun where thev found It. Whether thev would have lasted longer or performed feats of greater brilliance had thev been more conservative Is not easy to sav. As It was. thev tarried around for a number of years and turned In inanv memorable performances. I suppose It is true that the old timer Is the last to sense he Is slipping. Hovt thought this was going to be one of his beit seasons. He went on a diet, trained throughout the winter and reported In the spring pounds lighter, ready to pitch from the outset. Ironically, vou read now that the diet and the training, matters he never paid much attention to before, devitalized his energy and hastened hia exit. nun LIKE Hoyt, Heilmann reported drawn and fine. He had had a lc;' accident the year before and this had cleared up completely. I talked to him in Tampa. “I’m good for three or four more years,’’ he said. “I still can hit that ball as well as the next one. Don't be surprised if you see me lead the league." A few days later the Reds announced that Babe Herman had been purchased irom Brooklyn. This meant added opposition for Heilmann, an outfielder himself. But there was still room for him to break in In another week or so the Reds announced the acquisition of Chick Hafey from St. Louis, a deal that provoked even more public astonishment than the Herman transaction. . . . . With Both Hafey and Herman added to the squad, Helimann’s chances to start as a regular were reduced to practically nothing. And when the Reds jumped away to a roaring start he definitely became a bench warmer. And now when the time has arrived when the managers must get rid of their surplus material the once great champion Is handed his unconditional release. b n a OP course, there is nothing particularly tragic in this. It is a fate that comes to all of them in time. And both Heilmann and Hoyt have had more than their share of glory as well as gold. In these days when bricklayers and bookkeepers find themselves pounding the pavements after years of hard and unemotional labors, it is not easy to grow sentimental about insolvent stars of sports. At the same time the Heilmanns and the Hoyts add a lot of piquancy to the sport. They are fine, congenial, alert types, and you miss them. Hoyt came to greatness early as a pitcher. He had everything the successful pitcher needs, plus a shrewd head and a full cargo of courage. Nobody ever had to tell him how to pitch a ball game, and nobody ever had to coddle him in the tough spots. One of the greatest games he ever pitched was for the Yankees against the Giants In the 1921 world series. It was the eighth and what proved to be the deciding game. Art Nehf opposed him. In the first inning, the Giants got a run after Hoyt had seemingly retired the side on strikes. What looked to be a strike was called a ball by Umpire Ollie Chill and out of that circumstance grew the run which was to give the Giants the championship. That was the pnly run scored. Hovt pitched faultlessly the rest of the way—pitched with a powerful arm and an unerring noodle. It was his misfortune to draw a bad Judicial break in the first inning and to have his opponent, Nehf. match him pitch for pitch until the final out. There have been few more stirring pitching battles in the history of world series play. Hoyt's after the game comment was typical: "Well, you can't win ’em all.’’ What he may have said privately about the umpire’s decision on that one pitched ball which might conceivably have decided the championship I never heard. TORONTO GETS POSER CHICAGO, June 9. Chicago White Sox have sent Bobby Poser, former University of Wisconsin athlete, to the Toronto International League club as part payment for pitcher Art Smith, who recently joined the Sox, Poser is a pitcher and outfielder.

For Friday he needs but play two respectable rounds to win the title unless one of his nearer rivals uncorks a golfing miracle. Sarazen today equaled the recently established Prince’s course record of 69. His round contained six birdies and he was over par at only one hole, the ninth. Two other Americans were regarded as outside possibilities. They were Tommy Armour of Detroit, defending champion, 145, and MacDonald Smith of New York, 147.

Nineteen of Thirty-Two Survivors Under 80 Mark in Wednesday’s Round; Medal Honors Go at 73; Grade School Players Clash. Billy Reed Jr. of Park school, co-medalist, held a four up margin on Walter Chapman of Technical, defending champion, at the halfway mark of their eighteen-hole first round battle in The Times’ schoolboy golf tournament today at Riverside. Reed had a 36, one under par. Paul Gentry of Technical, who shared medal honors with Reed, was leading Nelson Collins of Shortridge, three up at the turn. In another feature match, Dick McCreary was leading his Shortridge team mate, Byron Hollett, one up. BY DICK MILLER Dazzling golf and remarkably low scores featured the eighteen-hole medal score qualifying test in the seventh annual Indianapolis Times’ schoolboy golf tournament at Riverside municipal links Wednesday. When the successful young mashle wielders settled down to match play today and the fight for the title, it was almost certain that par would take several spankings before the champion is crowned next Saturday afternoon. Two players, Paul Gentry of Technical and Billy Reed Jr. of Park school narrowly missed equaling par for the course Wednesday when they tied for medalist honors with 73 each. They will play off the' tie for The Times’ gold medal later. Close behind those two came a trio of 74’s, fired by Richard Keil and Richard Carlstedt, both of Washington, and Woodrow Dickerson of Shortridge.

Russell Fisher of Technical, perched alone on the 75 score pedestal, but a trio of sharpshooters tied i with 765. They were John Ball and Jimmie Hendricks of Shortridge and Irving Crouch of Manual. Chapman Has 79 Mike O’Connor of Cathedral, Delmas McNutt of Shortridge, Clay Nichols of Technical and Art Lynn of Broad Ripple all tied with 77s and Charles Brown of Tech and William Dunigan of Washington each had 78s. With four 70s, scored by Byron Hollett and Nels Collins of Shortridge, Walter Chapman, defending champion, and William Szotskowski, both of Tech, the number of qualifiers below the 80 mark was boosted to 19. It took an 81 or better to qualify in the select thirty-two this year, two strokes lower than last year at South Grove, when 83 was the deadline. There were five 80s, and nine 81s. Earl Lee also had an 81, but lost his position in the championship bracket in the draw and took the roll of alternate. Bobby O’Connor of Holy Angels parochial school, medalist in 1931 with an 83, came back even better this year and played the Riverside course Wednesday in 81 to again take medalist laurels in the grade school division. Finals on Saturday The sixteen low score shooters in the grade school division also began match play today, playing their first round matches this afternoon, with the finals scheduled for Saturday. The field of qualifiers came from a field of 187 high school golfers who tried the test Wednesday. This is a record turnout, and had all the grade school boys who signed advance entry blanks been able to play, the total field would undoubtedly have reached near 250. Recent ruling by Paul Stetson, city school superintendent, forced grade school boys to attend school until 3 p. m. Wednesady. Halfday attendance has always been the rule in the past. This made arrival at the course too late for numerous grade school golfers to get in the eighteen holes required, and they were a disappointed lot. Shortridge Places Eleven Shortridge gained eleven of the thirty-two places in the championship flight, while Tech came next with nine. Cathedral took six places, Washington three and Manual, Broad Ripple and Park school gained one each. Thrilling matches- came up right off the bat in the first round this morning, with Dick Carlstedt of Washington, low medalist in 1930, who had a 74 Wednesday, matched against James Fick, ace of the Shortridge team. Walter Chapman, defending champion, received a severe test when he crossed mashies with Billy Reed Jr., who fired a 73 Wednesday for a share of medal honors. Shortridge teammates Barney Hollett and Dick McCreary, were brought together by the luck of the draw and fought it out to stay in the running this morning. Two Rounds Today High school survivors played first and second round matches today at 8:30 a. m. and 1:30 p. m. Grade school matches were played at 1:30 p. ,m., while a championship consolation was staged at 1 p. m. Quarter final and semi-final matches will be played in the championship flight Friday while grade school boys will engage in second round encounters in the afternoon. The high school division final match Saturday will be thirty-six holes, while the grade school boys will play semi-finals Saturday morning with the finals in the afternoon, both eighteen holes. CANTERBURY WINS SHOOT Defeating Lou Manlief in the shootoff, 97 to 95, Harry Canterbury won the first of a series of handicap shoots at the Hoosier rifle and pistol range Wednesday night. Manlief and Canterbury tied with 100 targets. Another shoot will be held next Wednesday.

Berkeley Bell, seeded No. 3. twice was within a point of defeat before beating Jiro Yamagishi, Japanese star of the Ilinois U. court team, 1-6, 8-6, 7-5. The little foreigner had Bell 2-5 in the deciding set before Bell rallied to take five straight games. Byrant Grant, Junior Coen, George Lott, Cliff Sutter, Lefty Bryan, Billy Hughes and John McDiarmid were other survivors of hard battles Cleveland to Test Boley By Times Special m CLEVELAND, June 9.—Joe Boley, former Philadelphia shortstop, may be seen soon in the uniform of the Cleveland Indians. Boley, now a free agent, has been asked to come to Cleveland for a tryout, and if he shows well, will be signed to bolster the Indian infield. Cleveland bought Boley from the Athletics during the winter, but the deal was canceled by Commissioner K. M. Landis. Later Boley was released by the A’s due to an injury. ARGENTINE CHAMP ARRIVES By Times Special NEW YORK, June 9.

Indians and St. Paul Pastimers Turn to Night Ball Hostilities

Tribe and Apostles Will Battle Under Lights Tonight and Friday; Harriss Puzzles Local Pastimers Wednesday; Millers Bolster League Lead. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor

With the series standing even, Indians and Saints will turn to night action for the third struggle of the set, and the pastimers will battle under the lights at 8 o’clock this evening. The Friday contest also will be played after dark, and on Saturday the league-leading Minneapolis Millers will invade Perry stadium for a round of tilts with the men of McCann. The Apostles took an early lead Wednesday afternoon and were never headed, the lormer champs winning, 5 to 2. Bill Burwell opened on the Tribe firing line and was bombarded for three markers in the initial session. He couldn’t hold the visitors and Johnny Cooney took up the burden when the Northmen rallied again in the fourth. The Indian lefty hurled great ball the remainder of the way, but his fine pitching was wasted. The home nine was held to two runs by the lanky Slim Harriss. The Apostle veteran has a no-hit, no-run game to his credit this season, registering it over the Kansas City Blues.

Singles by Pascal, Jeffries, Fenner and Hopkins accounted for the cluster of St. Paul tallies in the first stanza. In the fourth Todt got a life when Burwell miscued and scored on a triple by Hopkins. Harriss found a safe spot with a onebase drive in this round and the blow scored Beck, who had reached second while the Indians were disposing of Hopkins on Beck’s grounder. Burwell was removed following the timely single by Harriss. Tribe Scores Twice In the Tribe's half of the fourth. Sigafoos singled after one down, advanced on a hit by Taitt and scored on Bedore’s safety. Taitt reached third on Bedore’s drive and scored on Rosenberg’s infield out. Harris was in trouble in the eighth when he issued two walks after one out, but escaped by tightening up on Sigafoos and Taitt. The Indians were held to seven hits and the Apostles collected eleven. Millers Increase Lead The Tribesmen have lost eight of their last twelve starts and the slump has enabled Minneapolis to bolster its lead. Bush’s Millers chalked up another victory in Louisville Wednesday night. The Columbus Red Birds, in third place, also are displaying consistent form and are striving to overtake the Indians. The Birds passed the Milwaukee Brewers by winning Wednesday. Bib Falk’s Hens are creating some excitement in Toledo. The former orphans have established a remarkable record recently by capturing ten games in twelve starts. Kansas City was swamped by the Hens Wednesday. Falk’s team has won five tilts in a row.

Tribe Notes

Curt Walker, veteran fly chaser, was returned to the Indians by the Toronto Internationals. 808 Fan* at the stadium Wednesday saw a circus catch by first baseman Todt of the Saints. He reached over the low wall with one hand and snared Angley's foul. B B B Four double plays were executed, two by each club. McCann, Taitt, Jeffries and Harriss grounded into the twin killings. With Sigafoos on first in the second Taitt connected for a red hot smash, but Todt nailed it and started a double Play. B B B Bedore played third for the Indians in place of Hale. The veteran Sammy was given a rest. He is nursing some minor bruises. B B B Paschal contributed a sparkling catrh when he captured Bcdore's short fly after a long run. B B B A smash by Jeffries in the first round hit Burwcll's underpinning and bounced into right field. U B B Women will be admitted to the games tonight and Friday night for 25 cents.
