By Joe Williams East I>ands Two in U. S. Golf Finals a a a Rivals Almost Failed to Qualify a m a Luck Flays Bij? Fart in Links Meet

CINCINNATI, Sept. 16.—For the first time since 1923, two easterners were out on the course today battling for the national amateur golf championship. That was the year Max Marston of Philadelphia beat Jass Sweetser of New York. Today, ten years later, this same Marston was meeting George Dunlap of New York, a youngster. Marston reached the finals by winning successfully from Craig Krayenbuhl of Louisville, Willie Tiirnesa of New York. Sidney Noyes of New York and Jack Munger of Dallas. Tex. Dunlap reached the same point of privilege by winning from W. B McCuilough of Philadelphia. Gus Moreland of Dallas. Eddie Held of New Jersey and Lawson Little of Los Angeles. To the finals was an equally rough trip for both. This tournament has been shot with unusual incident and bewildering episode. That both Marston and Dunlap should reach the finals in the same excited breath is no more than consistent with the established motif. Both were nine strokes away from the qualifying total. At 150 it was necessary for them to play off to see if they caught the next train or remained in the fight. As it happened, the dice came five-two, and they remained. a a a a a a IHAVE been writing all week about the elusiveness of golf. Nothing could demonstrate the point better than the fact that two men who had to play off to qualify ultimately came together in the finals. The man who led the field with 141. Johnny Fischer, was eliminated the first day. Two men who had to sweat to get in now play for the priceless cup. Curious, isn't it? And yet it isn't without precedent, except that this is the first time two playoff qualifiers ever met in the finals. Some years ago. Jerry Travers of New York won a position in the championship through the playoffs, and then went on to outdistance the entire field. It may not make sense, but it happens at intervals. How are these golf champions made, anyway? The luck of the draw is important. It may or may not be significant that neither Marston nor Dunlap met anv of the three favorites —Goodman, Somerville or Fischer. But does that mean anything? The three favorites were beaten by others who were not skilled enough—or maybe lucky enough, is the phrase—to reach the finals. Who is there to say that even if they had met ts-em that they wouldn’t have beaten them? The plain fact is that if you happen to be in a scoring mood you are likely to beat anybody. The national championship, in the final analysis, is not so much a test of consistent golfing ability, as such, as a test of who is hot for one week's play and who isnt. The result is inevitable. The man who gets on his game at the start and stays there to the finish picks up the potato chips. a a a a a a AS for Marston and Dunlap there can be no serious criticism of their scoring here this week, except that they were spotty during the two qualifying rounds, and it should be remembered that it took two 75s to join up. At all other times they have led a very decorous and pious life on the course. In fine, they have played well enough to belong to any golf society,, This being so—at least by my book —I am disposed to accept Marston and Dunlap as adequately equipped to represent the flower and chivalry to say nothing of the cream, of Americas golfing aristocracy. Even if there were Chinks in their armor —or Pategonians, for that matter I would still accept them. I have no patience with those who bemoan the absence of (he established stars. To me this absence is readily explained. They just didn't shoot well enough to stick around.

Blades’ Hit in Ninth Gives Bed Birds Win Over Millers

By I nitxl COLUMBUS. 0.. Sept. 16.—A 3-to-2 triumph over Minneapolis here Friday night gave Columbus a two-to-one advantage in their playofi series for the American Association baseball title. The two clubs left today for Minneapolis to resume the series. They will meet again Sunday. Bill Lee, Columbus right-hander, who won the first game of the series, probably will be opposed by Jess Petty in the opening game on the Millers’ lot. The 8.500 fans who saw Friday night's contest were given a storybook finish in the ninth inning after the score had been tied at two runs. Manager Ray Blades of Columbus, former St. Louis Cardinal outfielder, stepped to bat as a pinch-hitter in the ninth with the bases full and one out. He took two strikes and three balls and then hammered the ball into left field to score the winning run. Minneapolis scored its two runs by the home run method. Joe Hauser, the league’s home run king, knocked one over the fence in the first and Leo Norris duplicated the feat in the second.

One of the greatest rounds of competitive golf in all national amateur history enabled George T. Dunlap Jr. to finish the morning round 7 up on Max Marston in their thirty-six-hole final today. Dunlap broke the course record with a 69, three under par. Marston took 77 strokes. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent By Cuffed Prm* CINCINNATI, 0.. Sept. 16. Young George T. Dunlap Jr., twice intercollegiate champion, held a 6 up edge over Max Marston, 41-year-old Philadelphia veteran, when they reached the fifteenth tee of their thirty-six-hole final match in the national amateur golf championship today. After halving the first two holes, Dunlap won four consecutive holes with a pair of birdies and two pars to go 4 up.

Giants Humble Cubs Twice; Near Pennant Terry Club Needs Only Six Wins in Fourteen Games to Clinch Flag: Schumacher Wins Nineteenth Game While Herman Bell Hurls Shutout. BY JACK CUDDY United Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Sept. 16.—8i1l Terry's New York Giants today swung into the final half-month of the major league season with the National League pennant virtually clinched. Friday’s double-header victory over Chicago—enlivened by fisticuffs, banishments and injuries—boosted the Giants into a position from which they can almost coast to the pennant. It dropped the Cubs into third

place, one point behind Pittsburgh, while the Giants’ first-place lead was extended to seven and a half games. Terry's outfit now needs to win only six of its remaining fourteen contests to beat Pittsburgh if the Pirates w r in all of their scheduled thriteen, and five New York victories will beat out Chicago if the Cubs sweep their remaining eleven games. In their current six-game series, the Giants and Cubs each have won two games. Taking advantage of their first dry day in Chicago, the Giants walloped the Cubs, 5 to 1, in the opener, behind Hal Schumacher's six-hit pitching, and blanked them, 4 to 0, in the nightcap when Roy Parmelee and Herman Bell yielded only two safeties. Bell's masterly relief pitching featured the day’s play. He replaced Parmelee in the third with the bases loaded, retired the side and allowed one hit during the rest of the

game. It was the Giants’ twenty-third shutout of the season and Bell’s second. In the opener, outfielder George Davis of the Giants and pitcher Pat Malone of the Cubs were banished for fighting in the eighth when
