MAY 25, 1934-

Shaken Yanks Break Losing “ Streak by Trouncing Sox; Browns Hold Third Place ■ -r' Cards Replace Cubs in Second Place After Hubbell Nearly Pitches Shutout for Giants Against Chicago; Pirates Continue Leading Race. By United Press NEW YORK, May 25 Manager Joe McCarthy of the Yankees, hoping to offset pitching weakness by squeezing maximum efficiency out of his lineup, has made the most drastic shakeup of the season. Determined to check the dizzy western plunge, Marse Joe yanked the two kid infielders, Red Rolfe and Don Heffner, and shifted Tony Lazzeri from third to second. Jack Saltzgaver, recalled from Newark, took over third, and Frank Crosetti was placed at short.

This combination coupled with the defensive support of their premier pitcher, Lefty Gomez, enabled the Yanks to break their losing string at four straight yesterday as they downed the tail-end White Sox, 2to 1. Gomez handcuffed the Chisox with three hits. Meanwhile, the Yanks collected (seven safeties off Gaston and Gallivan to score their second victory in eight western-starts. Coincidentally It was Gomez who registered the other western triumph. Chapman’s double in the eighth, affer Byrd had singled and Gehrig doubled, gave the Yanks both their runs. A three-way tie for third place was broken, giving the Browns sole command of that position as Washington dropped to fifth and Detroit to fourth. The Browns shaded the Senators, 6 to 5, when Ray Papper’s homer with a mate aboard drove in the tying and winning runs in the seventh. Three St. Louis errors helped. It is the first time in two years that the Browns have a percentage of more than .500. Detroit beat the Athletics, 6 to 3. as Firpo Marberry registered his fifth win of the season by holding the A.'s to eight scattered hits. Three doubles and a pair of singles gave the Tigers four runs in the fourth. Boston at Cleveland was rained out. In the National League, the Cardinals replaced Chicago at second

The Cards tied the count in the sixth when Durocher’s double scored Collins and Orsatti. They added three more tallies in the seventh. Chicago dropped to third place when trounced, 7 to. 1, by the Giants. Carl Hubbell limited the Cubs to four hits and was deprived /of a shutout in the sixth when Wgtkin’s error resulted in English’s scoring on a fly. The Cubs made four errors. Leading Pittsburgh downed the Braves, 7 to 3, after a four-run spurt in the eighth. Lavagetto’s homer broke a 2-2 tie in the seventh for the Pirates. Bill Swift beat Ed Bx-andt in a pitching duel. The Phillies blanked Cincinnati, 5 to 0, behind rookie Curt Davis’ three-hit pitching. Johnny Moore made a Philly homer in the sixth.

West Meets East’s Best Stars Today 7 BY STUARt CAMERON United Press Sports Editor PHILADELPHIA. May 25.—The ambitions of two brilliant runners to register double triumphs and Stanford’s calculated bid to retain the west cGast’s strangle-hold on the team title were ready for testing today as most of America’s great track and field stars met in the Fiftyeighth annual I. C. 4-A. championships. Bob Kiesel, California’s fleet dash man, returning to the wars after a year's layoff, will try to score a double in the 100 and 200-meter dash events, and Bill Bonthron, Princeton’s courageous runner, will seek to win the 800 and 1,500-meter crowns for a second successive time. Finals Tomorrow Dink Templeton’s carefully culled seven-man squad of specialists will shoot for the thirty-five points which probably will win the show, held in the gaunt, steel-ribbed stadium of Franklin field. This is the annual two-day outdoor meet of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America, and the title for eight consecutive years has gone out to the west ooast. The hope of the east for an end to the Pacific dominance settled today on the crimson-shirted Harvard squad of considerable diversified power, but which, rated strictly off the record, boasts only one man, Dean, the discus ace, who is a probable winner of his event. The handicappers who blithely award Stanford anywhere between 35 and 40 points, can see Harvard with no more than 25 or 30. The same rating which is given to a Yale squad which is still smarting from a 78-to-57 licking administered by the Crimson in their dual tests last Saturday. Race of Races The race of races to be held before the championship is determined late Saturday is the 1,500-meter event which every one expects to turn into a dual between Bill Bonthron and the promising but oftendisappointing Gene Venzke of Penn. Three members of Templeton’s Stanford squad are to double. They are Klopstock, the lightweight hurdler listed for the 110 and 200meter events; Dunn, entered for the shotput and discus, and Lyman, who will defend his title in the shotput as well as compete in the discus. Nearly 800 individuals are listed for the eight track and seven field events. Today’s show will concentrate on qualifications.

June will be a busy tournament month. Quite a few of the major tournaments both here and abroad will be played before July shows up on the calendar. The Indianapolis Times interscholastic golf tournament will be held on Coffin municipal course Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, June 6-9, inclusive. Any school boy In Marion county is eligible to compete so long as he presents credentials showing he has attended school up to and including the remester just closing. A special eighteen-hole tournament for grade school boys will be held on Saturday morning, but grade school boys who want to play along with the high school boys may do so on Wednesday, when the eighteen-hole qualification round for the match play championship will be held. tt tt tt While The Times tournament is being held, the national open will be played at Merion Cricket Club, Ardmore, Pa., June 7, 8 and 9. THE Indianapolis District Golf Association will hold its fifty-four-hole championship June 11, 12 and 13, with eighteen holes Monday at Highland, the same number Tuesday at Speedway and the eight-een-hole windup play at Meridian Hills, Wednesday. If you are member of the district association you play in this and any other event staged by the organization in 1934 without greens fees. The dues are S3 per year, and if you are wise you will get vour foursome together at once and petition Cliff Wagoner, secretary, for the starting time you desire. If you are a single entry, advise Wagoner at once, give him your handicap and he will pair you up with players who shoot a similar game, making your rounds in the district event more enjoyable. Enter early, because it looks like a record field. tt tt tt THE next week will find Mrs. George Stewart, president of the Indianapolis Women's Golf Association, in charge of the city tournament play at the Speedway course. This tournament will be played June 18-23 and the champion again will be determined by match play. We say “again,” because it looks like Miss Elizabeth Dunn “again” will rule the roost. The women have settled the title on the fifty-four-hoie medal play basis a time or two. n a tt The pros who take part in all the major tournaments will make a hurried jump from Pennsylvania at the, close of the national open play to Peoria. 111., where on June 15, lfi and 11 the Western open will be held over the Peoria Country Club course. This is a rich tournament, with S.VOO for first, place. A total of $2,130 will be distributed to the first twenty low scorers. The tournament will be seventytwo holes with eighteen holes on each of the first two days and tliirty-six holes on the third day. Plaj-ers holding the lowest scores after the first two days will compete on the final day. tt tt tt SINCE this Peoria tournament is not so far from Indianaoplis, and is particularly interesting to Indianaoplis fans and players because it was once held at Highland, it is well to mention entries close June 8. Professionals may enter direct, but amateurs must have a handicap of five strokes or less at their local club. Their entry must be filed with H. C. Bahtolomay, secretary of the Western Golf Association, 175 West Jackson boulevard, Chicago, 111. Entry fee for both pros and amateurs will be $5. a tt tt The British Open will be held at the Roval St. George coure. Sandwich, England, June 25-29, inclusive, so pros who take the trip abroad will be obliged to pass up the Western open and go to the docks direct from Ardmore, Pa. tt tt tt OFFICERS for the Sarah Shank women’s golf club during the coming season were elected at a meeting held at the home of Mrs. C. L. Bennett, 1321 Comar avenue. Mrs. Clarence Reeves was named president, Mrs. Bertha Bailey, vicepresident; Miss Thelma Birkinbine, secretary, and Mrs. Edith Nagle, treasurer. Committee chairmen named by Mrs. Reeves are Miss Dorothy Simon, tournaments, and Mrs. Clayton Schultz, entertainment. Mrs. Schultz plans to start the ball a rollin’ with a card party at her home, 832 Bradshaw street, on June 6, to gain funds for prizes at the opening season tournament. PAIRINGS for the national open championship to be played over the Merion Cricket Club course at Ardmore, Pa., June 7 and 8, arrived today. They are for publication release next Tuesday. It is good to see several names of Hoosier golfers on the list. Two Indianapolis brothers, Ralph Stonehouse, pro at Coffin course and winner of the Miami (Fla.) open the

past winter, and Russell Stonehouse, pro at Riverside municipal course, are in the field. ' tt n a Other Hoosier national open qualifiers were Guy Paulsen, state open champion, of Orchard Hills course, Ft. Wayne, and Kenneth Morine, an amateur from Coquillard course, South Bend. Another name that had escaped our attention when qualification rounds were, played several days ago was that of Archie Hambrick, who gave his club connection as French Lick Springs (Ind.) course. Five Hoosier golfers among the 150 selected of the nation and foreign lands is pretty good, we’ll say.
