TALKING IT OVER BY JO* WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, June 15.—Sergeant Charles Gabby Street sat in his room in the hotel sucking away at a large back utensil that looked like a soup kettleIt proved to be a pipe. The manager of the world champions likes his pipes big and black and apparently smelly. So did Miller Huggins. Maybe all managers should smoke pipes. Most of them seem to, at that. Especially in March, when they get to talking about what their ball clubs are going to do. Right now, the Bergeant’s ball team isn't doing so well. Here it is getting close on to July and the world champions are below the .500 mark. Still, considering the open character of the race, perhaps this isn't significant. A team that is only five games out of first place in mid-June must be rated as a possibility. •'Possibility?” echoed the Sergeant. “Say, wc are ahead of the Giants and I think that's the tesm we got to beat. It's the team somebody’s got to beat, anyhow. I said that before the season started and I still say It." And by way of making it emphatic, the Sergeant said it one more time. "This 1 a topsy-turvy year,” continued the Sergeant. ‘'Anything is liable to happen. It wouldn't even surprise me to see u* get beer back, and I hope we do. Personally, I haven't had a drink in ten years but I can’t see where beer hurts a ball player. It’s certainly better than some of the stuff they drink now.” mum A COUPLE of years ago one of the Sergeant's pitchers—Flint Rhem—went out and got himself all tangled up in some speakeasy hogwash with a fancy label on it and came back to the hotel with a lurid story of how two uncouth New Yorkers took him for a ride and made him guzzle at the point of a gun. The Sergeant remarked as how he was sorry that story ever got out. ' Flint was just a young fellow and his foot slipped that night, that was all. I don't know where he cooked up that storv. but I alwav tried to believe it. I mean I think even Flint wouldn’t drink that, kind of stuff unless somebody threatened to shoot him.” The Sergeant smiled at this observation. It sounden whimsical. Then he told how the pitcher came back some days later and won a hall game for him—a bail game that practically decided the championship. "I never even fined him or anything,” said the Sergeant. “1 remeipbered one night in til# Argonne when rtiy captain had me arrested. We had just come back from the front. I got leave for most of our men. About thirty of them were late coming back, but I checken ’em in anyway. I knew they’d be back by morning, and they were. But this captain didn’t like it, and I caught hell.” The Sergeant took a prodigious pull at the black boiler. "What difference did it make? The men were back in time for duty—and, well, didn’t we win the war?” mum THE Sergeant isn’t exactly loose In his managerial policies, but he’s a human sort of person and the Cardinals appear to be thoroughly sold on him. They must be, because he has broken all modern records by remaining in charge of the team for three straight years. Few critics look for the Cardinals to win again this year- Not without Hafey and Grimes. You can’t lose two men of that calibre and not miss them. Besides, it is not easy to win three pennants hand running. Most teams find the second fairly easy, but the third is something else. Lethargy and injuries usually set in.
I C*HOOTIN(r
TERRE HAUTE, Ind., June 15. The ninth hole at Allandale, where the state open championship is being held, holds a double bugaboo for the boys and most of them are tossing away several valuable shots on that hole. A road entering the grounds parallels this fairway and passes by the side of the green. It is covered with hard sur* face. It is frequently the stopping point for the long drives and to play a shot off of it with any degree of accuracy is well nigh impassible. a u a Frit* Co*, local player and well familiar with the consequences of getting on that road, was one of the early victims Tuesday and went from bad to worse, hooking his ball from the hard surface over behind some parked sutos. After moving a couple of cars, Fritz was able to shoot and then made a beautiful recovery. a tt tt The course is In splendid shape except for the ninth green and It recently was resodded. The club management had planned resurfacing the green before they agreed to entertain the championship and then decided to take the open tournament only on condition that they be allowed to go along with their resodding plans. While the turf that has been down only a week Is a bit rough, still top dressing treatment has made it a pretty good putting surface and not as bad as it might be. But too many players worry about the roughness and forget to hit their putts, and then take advantage of the alibi. # # * The champion bad hole of the day at least so far as the Smith boys. Rov of Avalon. Indianapolis and Marion of CrawfordsviUe. la the sixth hole. Marion hunr up the largest single hole count of the first round of play when he took a 10 on that hole. Marlon hooked one and it went out of bounds. He stepped up to No. 2 and shanked it and it stopped just one yard from the first one. He shanked another shot snd bis round was doomed. Marion never alibis and came right bark In a remarkable manner to score a par 3.1 on the wav in and get an 81 for the round. Rov Smith took a 7 on the sixth also drivinr a ball out of bounds, so the brothers share the grief together. RALPH STONEHOUSE, Pleasant run pro., had to play a trick shot on hole No. 2 when his drive came to rest in a deep washout.

M’INTYRE SETS PACE IN INDIANA OPEN GOLF PLAY
Aurora Pro Trails by Stroke; Heinlein Third Second Half of 72-Hole Title Battle Waged Today Over Heavy Course at Terre Haute; Stonehouse, McDermott Near Top. BY DICK MILLER TERRE HAUTE, Ind., June 15. —Neal Mclntyre, big Highland Country Club pro of Indianapolis and 1931 Indiana open champion, still was champion of Hoosier linksmen after thirty-six holes of play in the 1932 championship here Tuesday. Neal began the final leg of thirty-six holes today with a lone stroke edge over Herman Layer, young Aurora, Ind., pro. He fired a 141 over the Terre Haute Country Club links Tuesday, while Layer required 142. The Aurora player was four strokes in front of the next pro contenders, Ralph Stonehouse of Pleasant Run, Indianapolis, and Freddy McDermott of Shelbyville, who had 146 each. ' Three strokes behind Layer came Bill Heinlein of Indianapolis, state amateur champion, with 143. Bill paced the amateur field by seven strokes, Phil Talbott of Bloomington being in second place with 152.
Other amateurs in the first ten were Johnny Simpson of Terre Haute with 153, Charles Harrell and Bob Harrell of Bloomington, with 156 each; Johnny McGuire, with 156; Fritz Cox. with 157; Don Humes of Marion, with 158; Billy Reed Jr., 159, and Max Buell, 160. Seven Pros Trail Seven pros were listed between Heinlein’s 145 and Talbott's 152. They were Ralph Stonehouse 146; Freddy McDermott, 146; Bill Tinder of Anderson, 147; Wally Nelson of Bloomington, 147; Everett Nutter of Marion, 149; George Stark, Indianapolis, 149 and Walter Murray, Gary, 149. Final thirty-six holes of action got under way today. In case of a tie at the end of today’s play, the leaders will play eighteen holes dally until a champion is decided. Last year, Mclntyre and Ralph Stonehouse battled fifty-four holes before Mclntyre won. Rain Slows Course Layer, runnerup to Mclntyre m the halfway point Tuesday, missed tying the Indianapolis pro by inches, when his chip shot on the eighteenth green of the second round missed the cup by two inches. But Mclntyre, Heinlein and other leaders also encountered tough breaks on the second round, or the scores might have been lower. Heavy rain fell here Tuesday night, which slowed the course today and the boys who reached the greens 500 yards away with a drive and iron Tuesday were forced to use woods for second shots today. REDS DROP HEATHCOTE PHILADELPHIA, June 15.—Cliff Heathcote, Cincinnati outfielder, has begn handed his unconditional release by the Cincinnati Reds. He formerly pastimed with the Chicago Cubs.
Laying flat on his stomach Ralph used a niblic to hoist the ball out and on to the green and got out without serious damage. tt a tt Fouls Bola, Highland assistant pro, and equally as rard a hitter as his boss, Neal Mclntyre, had a bit of bad luck that gave him a 73 in the first-round instead of a 71. Louie bad a short putt on the second hole and it stopped on the lip of the cup. Instead of tapping it into the cup, he did as he frequently does in match play, batted the ball away from the cup. He replaced the ball and putted out later, but with a two stroke penalty, and tt was 73 instead of 71 for Bola. tt tt tt T. O. Houston, an amateur player from Elwood, displayed a great shot on the eighteenth hole when he over-drove the green and laid his ball against a bush. Unable to make a right-handed shot, Houston took his putter and took left-handed stance and then made a sweet shot to the green thirty yards away. a tt tt All the boys who played with Herman (Chief) Layer, Aurora pro, speak highly of the young fellow’s game. Herman is the chap who shot an individual 68 In the pro-amateur Monday to equal the course record held by Johnny Simpson. On Tuesday, he fired an even par out on the first nine and then came home with nine consecutive pars, being on and down with two putts just as par is written on all holes except the eleventh, where he missed the green with his second shot, but he chipped up dead and was down with one putt. Herman formerly caddied over this course when his father was greenskeeper. Neal Mclntyre and Billy Heinlein each had splendid chances to break the course record or at least equal it when they hung up their 69s in the first round Tuesday morning. Neal missed a short putt on the first hole, another one on the third and took three putts on the seventh. He had few opportunities to better his second nine except that he had a chance for another birdie on the sixteenth. Heinlein got in a trap and found his ball buried on the third hole and putted miserably to take a five on the ninth. He likewise should have bettered a second nine that was actually 32 because he missed a two-foot putt on the eighteenth green. a tt tt Mrs. Leola Gibson, manager of the club, entertained the pros and their wives in grand style Monday night with a dinner and dance. Jteautifully decorated tables with small cut outs of the leading players on the club, minature sand traps, greens, fairways and tee boys made the center of the tables look golf course style. The gang danced until the wee hours and the fact that several were not so fresh early Tuesday was easilv explainable. Anyway Mrs. Gibson scored better than par with the pros and their wives. a tt a Louis Bola was not the only one who fell victim to a hard to take penalty. Freddy McDrrmottt, Shelbyvitle pro and ona of the best iron shot makers in the state, took a two-stroke penalty because his caddy was unable to get the pin out of the rup in time to avoid McDermott’s approach shot from ofT the green striking it. a tt The peculiar thing about, golf ts the way some players hang up scores. Johnny Watson, state champion in 1930. would be in favor of giving the player who is regularly down the fairway an advantage of points. Watson was playing with Johnnv Simpson of the local course and former state amateur and open champion. After both turned in their cards at the end of thirty-six holes Simpson ask Watson how many strokes separated them. Watson said he had 151 and Simoson had 153. Simnson got a great kick out of the fact that, as he explained it, he was in the traps, woods and rough as well as over the fence onto the railroad track and still had 153, and Watson who was straight every fairway and never in the rough was lust two strokes better. Os course, some luck on putts partly was responsible for Watson’s score. Simpson gave seme great exhibitions coming out of the rough. FOULIS ILLINI CHAM P By United Press CHAMPAIGN, 111.. June 15.—Approximately 100 golfers started out today in the qualifying round of the Illinois state amateur golf championship. The low thirty-six scorers will qualify for the match play rounds which will narrow the field to two for the final Saturday. Jim Foulis, Hinsdale, 111., won the Illinois state professional title Tuesday with a 71, one under par, giving’him a thirty-six-hole total of 145, one less than Harry Hampton.

Henry’s Pride Is Hurt — So Red Sox Lose Hurler

LACEY FRENCH CHAMP PARIS, June 15—Arthur Lacey, young English professional, won the French open golf championship Tuesday with a 72-hole medal score of 295.
Fenway Fusileers, Johnson returned to his home at Bradenton, Fla. It seems that being released to the occupants of the American League cellar injured Johnson's pride and hurt his faith in justice. Henry figured that he was coming along in great shape and approaching that high, peak of pitching proficiency which, year after year, he had promised to attain. And just when Henry was luxuriating in the immience of success, along came the shift to the Red Sox. What Henry regarded as his brightest hour was just twilight. And now Johnson is back on his father's cattle ranch near Bradenton, where Henry is a big hero to the home town followers. While the Boston club is busy trying to patch up Johnson's injured pride, Red Sox officials have been approaching the Yanks with wild remonstrances that they have been bilked. They want another pitcher. But Joe McCarthy replies: “So do I.” Seemingly when the Red Sox made the deal it was eaveat emptor—“let the buyer beware”—in more ways than one.

THE Gillette Safety Razor Company feels called upon to make a confession and a statement that are undoubtedly unique in the annals of American business. It is with deep regret and no little embarrassment that we do this in order to tell you frankly what actually happened when we introduced anew Gillette razor and blade..

After that, Wes was knocked out of the box three times in a row. The Cleveland front office, more than annoyed by the interview, then became alarmed. Billy Evans rushed out to St. Louis and said, “Wes, you do the pitching from now on, we'll do all the talking. You have a great fast ball and you have been pitching nothing but curves. For SIB,OOO a year, which we are paying you, we’re entitled •to an occasional fast ball. To which Ferrell replied—“Oh, the batters keep looking for fast ones, so I have been using a lot of slow stuff.” This may cut in somewhat on McCarthy’s estimate of Ferrell's mental capacities. At any rate, Wes stopped talking and resumed throwing his fast one that very day. And now he has won eleven games against four defeats. There must be a moral somewhere !
