By Joe Williams m o a Yanks Appear Sure Winner moo Ruffing In Shape This Year Gehrig May Out-Ruth Babe
YORK, May 15.—With the major league races a month old—(voice from the bleachers: Well it was time you dragged yourself away from those race tracks). Umph! As I was saying before that rude person interrupted me (probably a slack rope walker from Perth Amboy) with the major league races a month old, it is possible to get a fair sort of line on where the main strength lies. It is my not;on that the standings of the two leagues as they appear at the moment faithfully reflect the divisional power in each circuit. I mean to say that the teams currently appearing in the two first divisions ought to still be there when the stretch drive is reached. In short, already the races have begun to take form. There is nothing surprising about the presence of the Yankees cn top in the American League, nor is there anything surprising about the complete agreement of rival managers that nothing short of a black blizzard can keep them from winning the championship. a a ** bob PERSONALLY I think they performed an even more difficult feat in losing last year’s championship. It requires supreme sljill in ineptnesi. for a patently superior club to blow a championship, and I am afraid the Yankees’ accomplishment in this matter has not received as much critical acclaim as it deserves. I note that Mr. Joe McCarthy, the manager, rates the present Yankees 25 per cent stronger mainly because of the return to form of Red Ruffing. It develops that Mr. Ruffing just didn't take the trouble to get in shape last season. Among other things he reported twenty-five pounds overweight. At the end of the race his record read: Won, 9; lost. 14. Already the gentleman has won more than half as many games as he won all last year. It seems that he has decided to get in shape and do a little pitching. I certainly trust that Mr. McCarthy appreciates this. There is nothing like loyalty, self-sacrifice and close application to duty, especially when the pay is good. 808 BUB IF it is true, as Mr. McCarthy tells the press, that the difference between a lasing Yankee team in 1933 and a winning Yankee team in 1934 is the nobility of soul and generous spirit of Mr. Ruffing in getting in shape, I hope I may be pardoneS in wondering why stern, disciplinarian methods were not exercised in more speedy reform. Perhaps that is none of my business. And besides lam more interested in watching what Lou Gehrig does this year. For five years now I have been predicting that he was going to come along and out-Ruth Ruth as a hitter, if not as a slugger. This looks as if it might be the year. He is now leading the Yankees with a .402 average. He is away to the finest start he has had in years. Ruth is down to .316. The tip-off on the rest of the American League is to be found in the fact that Mr. Cornelius McGillicuddy of the Athletics has sold everything but thp flagpole, for which there must be no demand, incidentally, and still he has his club snapping at the heels of the second place Clevelands, an interesting if not altogether appetizing procedure. B B B B B B THE champion Washingtons may yet furnish the major opposition, but as to this I have my doubts. They went to the front and stayed there last year on the impetus of anew spirit and the strategical daring of a young manager for whom every turn of the dice rolled right. Young Mr. Joe Cronin's strategy last year was at once the dismay and misery of every rival manager. He couldn't do anything wrong and some of the things he attempted suggested a strong fondness for spiritualistic seances. There is a certain percentage of luck in baseball and there are times when it runs all one way. Mr. Cronin experienced such a phenomenon last year. But this year the luck is running all the other way. and the Washingtons are losing just as often as they win and the warming cheers that broke around the ears of the young manager have turned to vocal noises strangely reminiscent of the Bronx 800.

IT took twenty-five holes before George Stark, the little ex-Con course pro. could convince the field that took part in the weekly pro-amateur at Highland Country Club yesterday that he was the best golfer on the lot. All afternoon George's partner. F. D. Woods of Florida, was convinced George had all his shots working to perfection.
The team of Lou Feeney and George Green were not to be convinced without a struggle, and it took a seven-hole playoff before they gave up and accepted second money. Quite a few of the pros were out of town competing in the national open qualifications, so the field of forty-eight that took part in the Highland play consisted of fourteen pros and thirty-four amateurs. b a a 'TPHE pros drew partners until there were no pros left. Then the amateurs drew one another as partners, and the play proceeded on the handicap basis. * Young Mr. Stark didn't need any handicap allowance. Neither did he reed any help from his partner. His game was just good enough that he broke course par by two strokes and turned in an individual card of 68. Lou Feeney and George Green teamed well, and with the handicap strokes allowed, managed to squirm in with a best ball count of 68 and tied Messrs. Stark and Woods for first place. a b b A TEAM of amateurs, young Ed McNabney of Anderson and Jack Foland. put together their best efforts for a best ball count of 69. This tied with Maurice Feeney and Sammy Simpson for third place. There were five prize positions, so fifth place went to Bill Wilkinson and Dr. Gerald Timmons with a best ball count of 70. BUB After all the noses were in and the rain increased, making the playoff a real test, the four teams mentioned above started out to settle first and third places. Feeney and Simpson tossed a par 4 at the team of McNabney and Foland on the second hole, and they couldn’t match it, so Feeney and Simpson collected third place spoils. BBS ON the first two holes Lou Feeney and Green were able to match pars with Stark, so this battle continued. Finally, on the seventh extra hole. Stark, who had taken a five on the hole on his first trip around in the early afternoon, smashed, into a couple of wood shots and his par 4 was better than Lou and George could do. so they had to be content with second place. BBS After they reached the clubhouse and shed their drenched clothing. Max Buell, tournament manager for the Indiana P. G. A., informed Mr. Woods of Florida that it was customary for the amateur partner of the prize winning combinations to take his share of the prize award money in trade, dealing, of course, with his professional partner. Whereupon Mr. Woods spoke up and established himself as a sportsman of the real variety. He said: ‘ Gentlemen, if there is any prize award coming to me please pass it on to Mr. Stark. Any young man who can carry on and shoot a game like he did and not receive one single strrke of help from his partner certainly is welcome to everything! B B B THE Messrs. Stark and Woods wpnt into huddle. The outcome, in substance, was that any fellow who is as as good a sport as Mr. Woods certainly should have a better golf game, so beginning this afternoon Mr. Woods began taking
lessons under the tutoring eye of one Mr. Stark. Those of you who think George Stark was not pounding the pellet in stellar manner Monday are requested to compare the following figures: Tar Out —4-1-5-3-1-4-4-3-4—35 Stark Out—4-4-4-3-4-3-5-3-4—34 rar In -4-3-5-4-4-3-4-4-4—35—35 —70 Stark In—3-3-4-4-4-4-4-4-4—34—34—68 a a a Charlie Higgs and Charlie Braughton, as well as the team of Max Buell and R. Bennett, turned in best ball cotints of 71 each just out of the money. Max had an individual 73. Ray Roberson and Kingdon. and Louis Bola and C. Smith, each had 72 s. Marion Smith and Steve Davis had 73 and Neal Mclntyre and R. Wildman 74. Teams of Joe Stout and Edwin Beeson and Walter Chapman and Lavin. each had 75's. B B B INDIANAPOLIS golfers continue to win prizes at Tri-County Country Club course. Word from there states that H. C- Stadtlander, 5121 East Michigan street, captured third in the “approach'’ contest Sunday. Ernest Barton. 3760 Broadway, won a special prize. R. W. Cory, Columbus, and Starkey Evans, Rushville, won similar awards. Other prize winners in the contest were: E. R. Scharherer and Berkley Perk, both of Shelby ville. first and second; Tucker Tuttle. Fortville, fourth; Taul Schuler, Shelbyville, fifth; C. E. Tolen, Fairland. sixth: E. A. Maple. Shelbyville, seventh; Horace Wilson and P. S. Ronforth. both of Fortville, tied for eighth; William Reiman. Shelbyville, tenth; J. P. Williams, Fortville. and F. L. Harrell, Fairland, tied for eleventh. B B B The Tri-County team was defeated by Fortville, 13 to 6. and F B Padgett, links manager, has designated next Sunday as guest day" at the course. Special contests will be staged. E. R. Schacherer and A. S PatakoflT. both of Shelbyville. won a free round of golf over the course for getting a par on the difficult No. 6 hoie. FRANK M'CARTY. diminutive pro at Connersville Country Club, dropped in yesterday, while en route to the pro-amateur at Highland, to tell us about the invitational open tournament he is to stage at his course next Monday and Tuesday. “Mac” hopes to hold one of the biggest pro-amateur tournaments of the season on Monday. The pros will draw the names of their amateur partners from the hat at 1 p. m. A $5 entry fee for each will bo charged. Entry fee for the thiry-six hole open event on Tuesday will be $2.50 per player, for both pro and amateur. and all the entry fee total, plus a SSO purse McCarty collected in Connersville. should make the spoils of the event attractive for the money shooters. B B B IN addition. McCarty states he has a collection of prizes, ten m number, for the amateurs who take part. Quite a few of the Indianapolis and surrounding town “Simon pures” are expected to find their way to Connersville for the event. The pro-amateur play Monday will be an 18-hole best ball affair, but the Tuesday championship will be 36-hole medal score. McCarty states practically all the outstanding Indianapolis pros and amateurs. Neal Mclntyre. Ralph and Russell Stonehouse. Chuck Garringer. Roy Smith. Johnny Vaughan. Bill Wilkinson. Bill Heinlein Bert Street. Charlie Braughton. Nelson Marks. John McGuire and many others, have promised him they would make every effort to be there. B „ B GUY PAULSEN of Ft.

‘Ax-Day’ in Major Leagues Finds Yanks, Cubs on Top; Chicago Edges Out Giants Rookies, Veterans Slated to Go as Clubs Cut Down to 23-Player Limit; Klein’s Double in Tenth Inning Beats N. L. Champions. BY JACK CUDDY United Pres, Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. May 15.—This is May 15—the day that the ax swings throughout the major leagues as managers chop down their squads to comply with the twenty-three-player limit, which goes into effect at midnight. * It is an important day in the baseball season, supposed to close officially the first month of play, to wind up the period of experimentation and to start the pennant fights in dead earnest with hand-picked squads, who will carry on throughout the campaign.

John Drake HPHE hard-driving Purdue freshman gridder, John Drake of Chicago has been named to receive the Boilermaker football merit trophy, for showing the most improvement, best mental attitude and highest scholastic rating of the yearlings. Formerly a star at Bowen high school in Chicago, Drake, who is 17 years old, weighs 190 pounds and is 6 feet tall, is expected to help bolster the new Boilermaker machine when Coach Noble Kizer sends the Old Gold and Black squad on to the gridiron this fall, hopeful that it will be able to continue the great display of offensive strength which has resulted in one or more touchdowns in forty-eight straight games.
Ruppenthall and Finnegan to Top Tomlinson Card Mat Welters Signed for Friday Headliner. Duke Ruppenthall, popular Milwaukee welterweight who is undefeated this season on the local mat, will attempt to keep his record clear when he meets the English welterweight champion, “Lord” Patrick Finnegan, in a return match which will feature the weekly mat show at Tomlinson hall next Friday night. The clever Briton and the Wisconsin ace wrestled to a 90-minute draw here a few weeks ago in one of the cleanest and most scientific bouts seen in local rings in many a day. Finnegan also has a record clear of defeats in local competition. In the semi-final Elmer Gutherie an old favorite, returns to Indianapolis after an absence of nearly two years. Promoter Jimmie McLemore is searching for a strong opponent for him. One other match will be carded to complete the card.

The last time a pro-amateur was held there, not one player broke the course par of 76 for 18 holes. Bill Tinder of Anderson fired one nine in par 38. but none has been able to defeat perfect figures twice around the 3.369 yards. Connersville folks are proud of their country club course, and principally because none of the boys has been able to break par they were prompted to raise the SSO purse and petition McCarty to stage an open championship there. The gallery is expected to be & big one.
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
It is a day of dread for rookies trying to gain a foothold in the big time and for veterans who are slipping. Some of them must go. Most of the sixteen clubs must sell, trade, option out or release from one to three men to keep within the limit. Bostons Red Sox reduced to the limit yesterday by giving Joe Judge, veteran first baseman, his unconditional release. Detroit released on option Steve Larkin, right-handed pitcher, to Toledo of the American Association. The New York Yankees are expected to send Norman Kies, a rookie catcher, and pitcher Charley Deven s to their Newark farm club for further seasoning. Cleveland will release one man, identity as yet unknown. The Dodgers released Phil Page, left-handed pitcher, and Glenn Chapman, utility outfielder, to Albany of the International circuit. Intersectional Tilts Start May 15 is doubly important this year because tonight eastern American League teams will make their first march into the west, and Western National League outfits will begin their invasion of the east. Not until this second phase of intersectional conflict is well under way can the true merits of outstanding clubs be determined. The baseball world will fix its binoculars particularly upon the Yankees and Chicago Cubs, leaders of the American and National Leagues, respectively, during the next two weeks. They will be making their first long road trips. Failure on the road last year cost both the pennants. Yesterday the Citbs recaptured the National lead by shading the, champion Giants, 3 to 2, in ten innings. It was one of the three games permitted by weather in the majors. Idle Pittsburgh dropped to second place. Chuck Klein’s double in the tenth, with Warneke and Galan aboard, drove in the winning run. Terry and Camilli kept the score even in the ninth with homers for their respective clubs. Tigers Blank A’s. In the American League, Detroit rose into a third-place tie with idle Philadelphia by virture of a 5 to 0 shutout over Washington. Rain ended the game after the sixth. Vic Sorrell held the Senators to two hits. The Senators dropped out of the first division. The White Sox downed the Red Sox, 8 to 2. Behind George Earnshaw’s four-hit pitching. Lefty Grove, in his second relief attempt this season, pitched excellently for the Red Sox during six and twothirds innings, but he took the mound too late. The White Sox had garnered six runs off Henry Johnson before his arrival. Bill Werber made a Boston homer. Rain, wet grounds and threatening weather prevented all other games.

Criticism of the handling of paroled prisoners, aimed particularly. it is believed, at activities of the Dillinger “terror mob,’’ has resulted in a request that all parole violators from state institutions be rounded up at once. In a letter addressed to Clyde Snoddy, agent in charge of parole violators for Marion county, Frank Hope, member of the state parole board, announced that the state board decided to make a concerted drive to apprehend all parole violators, and return them to institutions. The letter stated that the “drastic ruling is adopted because of the present public hostilities in crime committed by former institutional inmates.” 16 NEGROES NABBED IN ALLEGED GAMING DEN Cards, Dice and Cash Seized; Proprietor Held. “Come seben, come eleben. Shake them dice.’’ These poetic words were interrupted last night at 312 Indiana avenue by the big bad wolf in the form of a police squad. Cards, dice and about $lO in change were seized, and Joseph Dice, Negro, who said he was the proprietor, was charged with keeping a gambling house. Fifteen other Negroes were charged with gaming and visiting a gambling house. Without his dice, Mr. Dice awaited his fate sadly in city prison today.
