GALLERY EXTENDS SYMPATHY TO JONES

Bobby Raps Out 74 on Second Round of Play

Ralph Stonehouse Hangs With Leaders at Half-way Mark in Masters’ Invitational Golf Tourney: Jones Totals 150. BY HENRY M'LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent AUGUSTA, Ga., March 24 —That portion of the golf world here to cheer Bobby Jones in his return to the competitive game today extended Us sympathy to the former king of the fairways. Then the experts and fans turned their attention, somewhat regretfully, to the wide open dog fight at the top of the tourney as the seventy-two-hole Masters' invitation swung into its third round.

Jones, apparently has been taken care of. He appears to have no more chance of winding up winner than a beefsteak in a dog pound, when the dust settles on the Augusta National Course at dusk tomorrow. At the half-way mark, after two eighteen-noie rounds, his score is 76-74—150. Twenty-five of the country's sharpshooters are ahead of him. He is eight strokes behind the pace-setter, lanky Horton Smith, of New oYrk, who totaled 142. True—Jones has come from as far behind as this before, but he was playing golt then. And he isn't now. Nearly four years of absence ftom tournament play sapped the magic from his putting touch and waggled his chipping sights. This was suspected in his first round Thursday, and it was proved apparently yesterday. The gallery actually gasped several times when he missed little putts not much longer than your arm. On the sixteenth green he missed a chance for a birdie, with the ball less than a foot from the cup. Walter Hagen, former British and American open champion, is partnered with Bobby today, replacing young Paul Runyan of White Plains, N. Y The playboy’s joviality may help the worried Atlantan to lift his game. Horton Smith cracked par 72 yesterday with a 70 to attain the imposing aggregate of 142, that leads the field. Tied for second were Billy Burke of Cleveland and Ed Dudley of Augusta, with 1435. Burke came through with a 69 yesterday, the first participant to crack 70. At 144 were MacDonald Smith of Nashville, upon whom the tipsters are concentrating; Jimmy Hines of Timber Point. N. Y„ and Ralph Stonehouse of Indianapolis. Below these leaders—but between' Jones and the top—were such marksmen as Craig Wood. A1 Espinosa. Leo Diegel, Denny Shute, British open champion; Johnny Golden. Hagen. Willie MacFarlane and Bobby Cruickshank. Most of those with upper-strata scores are seasoned veterans, perfectly capable of standing up under fire. And they will receive the test of fire today and tomorrow as the whole field, without eliminations, swings over this court, which has been found much more difficult than expected. Starting times for the field were reversed again today. 2 Hoosiers on Irish Ball Team By Times Special NOTRE DAME.

Berghoffs Post High Total of 3,013 at Illinois Drives

BY PAUL STRIEBECK (Pinch Hitting for Leftv Lee) The Berghoff beer team of the Washington League at the Illinois alleys was pacemakers for the loop wieth a 3.013 count last night. Ahearn and Heckman set the maples in the pit for a total of 633 apiece. This score was enough to trounce the Schlitz Beer three times. Berghoff Beer shot a consistent three games of 1,016, 992 and 1,005. Jess Hall starred in the individual scoring with a 192, 247 and 207, for 646, and this count and a 605 by Rudbeck, enabled the Pharis Tire to take the odd game from Fall City Beer.

Talking It Over

BY JOE WILLIAMS Augusta, Ga., March 24.—1 don’t recall the year right off, but it was in the earlier twenties and the national open golf championship was being played at the Inwood country Club in New York. Bobby Jones had tied with Bobby Cruickshank and there was a play- ; off on a sultry Sunday afternoon. It was give and take all the way to the stretch. Playing the last hole, Jones had hooked his tee shot slightly to the rough. Cruickshank was out in the middle. A growning hazard barricaded the green. (All hazards, you know, are frowning.) Jones was 200 yards, more or less, from home. The two men had been playing sto steadily and so evenly that it seemed almost certain the next shots would decide the championship. Jones took his stance out there in the stubble, sighted the line, drew back with an iron, and fired. The ball cleared the hazard, landed on the green and rolled up to within four or five feet of the pin—one of the finest pressure shots golf has ever seen. It was so fine that it took something out of Cruickshank. To be brief, it decided the championship. * a a A FEW moments later, when Jones had holed a fairly simple putt, there was a mad rush for him; he: was practically mobbed. There was an effort to lift him and carry him bodily to the dressing room, but this he was able to resist. Some- j body started to sing “Everything Is' Peaches Down in Florida.” It must have been his greatest thrill ini golf. A mental picture of this mad demonstration came back to me here yesterday wthen Jones, playing in the second round of what is called the masters’ tournament, was I called upo nto flick a chip shot to the fifth green. Making his first appearance in tournament golf in nearly four years, he had started the round sLx I strokes behind the leaders. On the scoreboard his name appeared in thirty-fifth position. He was dis- ! tinctly one of the also rans. Like the Dempseys, the Tildens and the Cobbs. Jones is vain about his game and his name. He started the determined to prove that his 76 of the day before was a mis- j take. He spent hours trying to correct flagrant putting faults. He played the first four holes in even fours. He looked something like I the grand slammer of 1930. eatt ON the 425-yard fifth he out-! drove Paul Runyan, his playing 1 partner, by thirty yards. Playing the odd. Runyan was short to the; left behind* grassy mound. Jones'j second second didn’t come off just

of his triumphs over top notch opponents have come as a result of his strength and his ability to get his adversaries into such a position that he can fall on them. Dean’s real name is Frank Stone Mountain Dean. He was born at Tucker, Ga., at the foot of Stone mountain. His “pap” weighs 260 pounds and his “ma” 200. Dean wears a size 20 collar and has a 56-inch chest. He has been wrestling for four years and the whiskers, he says, are not for showmanship, but because of a family tFadition.

sier Optical Six. Kaser Tire Service had Koester with 612 to offset the 611 of Blumer of the Mausner Beer team and the former copped two from the latter. The remaining series found Coca Cola taking a couple from Schmitt Insurance. Boesnecker with 664, Burnett with 633 and Argus with 639 found Indiana Wheel and Rim leading the City League at the Antler alleys. This team fired a 3,019 on games of 1,064, 987 and 985 to win all three from Elks Boosters. Arch Heiss, with 601, was the reason the JonesMaley team accounted for three oevr Marott Shoes. Jack Hunt and Ray Roberson had 663 and 610 for Falls City Beer, but these two smashing totals was not enough and the Antler Alley five downed the mtwo games, despite the fact that not a 600 was shot on the latter team. Larry Fox had 628 and Frank Hueber 600 even for the Barba sols, but King, with 622 for Hoosier Coffee found better support and the Hoosier Coffee set the shaving cream five down twice.

right and he was shorter still, in almost the same position. The next shot called for a mashie : niblack pitch to a wide open green, and Jones dubbed it miserably, the ! ball not going more than five feet. There were a thousand or more I people banked around the green and | in the gallery. From somewhere came a rasping, sneering voice which said: “Nice work, Jones!” Without looking* up, Jones, who I had been deeply humiliated by his j own ineptness, replied with a simI pie. caustic: “Thanks!” nun AT that moment Jones, if he had paused to reflect, would have had before him the whole panorama of the fate of national idols. It doesn’t take long for the cheers to turn to jeers in any line. Would you believe it possible for the great Jones to miss a one-foot putt? I wouldn’t either, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. Some of the boys say it was an eighteeni inch putt. But when was it ever necessary to debate inches on a Jones putt? Asa compromise, I will grant it was a fifteen-inch putt. Still, he missed it. This wa sat the sixteenth, when it didn’t seem that he could possibly miss scoring a birdie three. I thought the miss had been due to carelessness, and said as much to Bobby Cruickshank, who was following the match. “On the contrary,” corrected Cruickshank .“he was never more careful in his life.! His putting has become a night- j mare to him. The shorter his putts are the greater his fear that he will not be bale to sink them.” GOLF CLASS TO OPEN Y. IV. C. A.

Nineteen Entries Fail to Finish in Grand National Winner Pays Bto 1: Bookmakers Suffer Losses as Money Is Piled on Favorites; Owner of Victorious Horse Collects $40,000 Purse. BY TOM CREEDON United Press Staff Correspondent AINTREE. England. March 24.—Dorothy Paget's Golden Miller fought his way to victory in the Grand National steeplechase yesterday defeating a field of twenty-nine other great jumpers in the world’s most difficult race. J. B. Snow’s Delaneige was second. John Hay Whitney's Thomond 11, an American-owned entry, was third. William Parsonage’s Forbra, the 1932 winner, was fourth. Golden Miller w r as Btol in the betting, Delaneige 100 to 7 and Thomond II 18 to 1. Really True was favorite at 7 to 1. It was a magnificently run race, at a terrific pace, with the lead alternating constantly between Golden Miller. Delaneige and Forbra. During the early running. Southern Hue had set the pace, but folded up under the terrible grind. F. Ambrose Whitney, whose wife won with Kellsboro Jack last year, had high hopes for victory with Sorley Boy, but he fell. Southern Hero also went down.

Golden Miller ran the four miles and 856 yards in 9 minutes 20 2-5 seconds, lowering the record of 9:28 by Mrs. F. Ambrose Clarks Kellsboro Jack last year by 7 3-5 seconds, The race went to a woman owner for the second year in succession. Libourg was scratched just before the race, making a field of thirty, one of the smallest in years. It was a clean start. All negotiated the first fence, with Southern Hue leading. Visibility was excellent and the track firm. Delaneige, Gregalach, Forbra and Golden Miller, fencing cleanly, fought desrv ;>rof '' , v for the lead on the first round. Thomond 11, Remus and Lone Eagle II also were well up. Oddly enough, no horse fell at the dangerous Becher Brook, considered the world’s most difficult jump, on either round. Nineteen of the runners fell or refused, however, leaving only eleven t~ finish, in the following order: Golden Miller, Delaneige, Thomond 11, Forbra, T T ~' l e Batt, Blue Peter 11, Gregalach, Apostasy, Anandale, Remus and Slater. The Ace II refused. The second round provided the record crowd of several hundred thousand with plenty of thrills. The casualties began mounting as horse after horse went down. At the canal turn, Foabra was leading, followed by Delaneige and Golden Miller. They were closely bunched most of the time and seesawed in the lead. After the last jump, however, Golden Miller began to pull out. As they raced down the turn in past the stands to the finish line, it obviously was his race. He crossed the wire five lengths in front of Delaneige. Thomond II was another five lengths back. It was the smallest field since 1926. As is usual, the favorite did not win. The last favorite to score was Sprig in 1927. Whitney’s other starter, Lone Eagle 11, was pulled up at the canal turn on the second round, when he was far behind. He was jumping badly after having been among the leaders on the first round. Bookmakers lost heavily on the race. All three horses in the money were heavily backed and money had been pouring in on Golden Miller for weeks. In addition, many successful “doubles” were made on Play On, which won the Lincolnshire earlier this week, coupled with Golden Miller in the Grand National. The purse was worth about $40,000 to Miss Paget.

The second squad of Tribesmen is due to begin rolling into the Pocket city on Sunday, and by Monday Manager Red Killefer will begin the official count of noses to ascertain how many holdouts are going to worry him. Rookies Are Willing Some df the young candidates with the squad on hand, evidently put themselves in splendid condition before reporting. They have asked for no mercy and have done about everything possible along the lines of getting their arms, legs and wind in shape. Some of the pitchers are ready now to use a few curves, but have been cautioned to be careful until the return of mild weather. Red Wright, former Indiana university hurler, has been displaying promising form, and a young catcher named Lombordo also has impressed Killefer. Lombordo hails from the CCC camp at Jasper. Dick Harper, Evansville semi-pro outfielder,took a long workout Thursday and the Tribe boss gave him close attention. The boy is fast and evidently a sure fielder. Killefer is anxious to see what Harper does when he faces experienced pitching. All of the hurlers in camp went through long, easy workouts yesterday and Killefer said, “so far, so good.” Burwell May Leave It was learned in camp that the veteran Bill Burwell, pitcher, is weighing an offer to become manager of a minor league club and Manager Killefer of the Indians &aid he would not stand in Burwell’s path if the popular hurler desired to leave. Rain fell here early Thursday and the Tribe chieftain hesitated about taking the athletes to the park, but he said he would plan some sort of exercise to keep the boys active in the event the field could not be used.
