Revival of the good old club championship golf tournament that for several years was an annual headliner attraction on the. Indianapolis Athletic Club "good times” program was effected yesterday at Highland Country Club course with sixty-nine linksmen competing in spite of the rain that fell all afternoon. For the last couple of years the I. A. C. members have been settling their inner-club title honors at the same time they played the Columbia Club in a team match. The outcome was the same, but I. A. C. members, from the Governor of our state on down, wanted more fun and they had it. Johnny Simpson, winner of the club championship in 1924. 1932 and 1933, refused to relinquish his title completely. Johnny turned in a snappy 73. although he liad a 5 and 6 on two par 4 holes midway in the back nine. Johnny's 73 was not good enough to win undisputed honors, because Frank Shields, veteran local linksman who has sported a few I. A. C. titles himself, being winner in 1926 and 1928, turned in a 73. The weather being entirely unfavorable to playoffs, the pair decided they would settle the issue on the day the I. A. C. and Columbia Club teams clash, which will likely be next month. As for first prize that was settled by a draw and Simpson won. Their cards: Par out 4-4-5-3-4-4-4-3-4—35 Shields 3-5-6-3-4-4-4-2-5—36 Simpson 3-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-S—3s Par in 4-3-5-4-4-3-4-4-4—35—35—70 Shields 5-2-4-4-4-4-4-5-j -37—36—73 Simpson .... 4-4-5-5-6-3-3-4-4 —36—35 —73 nan SHIELDS pitched to within six inches of the cup on the first hole for a birdie, went over the green on the second hole and threeputted on the third green. Then he
settled down to pars until the eighth, where he chipped in from off the edge of the green. He lost the advantage on the ninth hole, where again he threeputted. Frank was just short of the green with his approach on No. 10, but dropped in a fif-teen-foot on No. 11 and a twelvefooter on No. 12 for birdies to get

back even wuth par. He got pars on the next two holes, but took three putts on No. 15 and was in a trap on No. 17. He was short on his second and third shots on No. 18 to go over par on both holes. a a a PAUL CROSIER captured low net honors for the day with a gross 80. twelve handicap and 68 net. Frank Binford captured the honors among those who decided to take part in only nine holes of play. There were flocks of prizes, with Wee Willie Umphrey as chief distributor, nearly every one at the dinner came in for a reward of some kind. That is. all except Gov-

Lord Jim Is I First in Top Trot Feature Hambletonian Classic Goes Upset: Doc Parshall in Sulky. BY HENRY M'LEMORE l nitfd Press Staff Correspondent GOSHEN N. Y., Aug. 16.—A rangy bay colt, who steps awkwardly but extremely last, today jvas king of the buggy derbY—Lord Jim. ninth Hambletonian trotting campion. Carrying the colors of H. L. Metford of Columbus. O. and tooled over the mile track at Good Time park by the veteran Doc Parshall, Lord Jim outlasted two other heat winners to capture the fourth—and extra—heat of the classic Hambletonian yesterday. Mefford’s horse, bought for SSOO as a yearling, was scarcely in the betting when the races opened, with Emily Stokes the heavily backed favorite. Even after the final heat was found necessary, the race was thought to lie between Princess Peg, a New Jersey entry, and the Coldstream stud's Muscletone. 35,000 See Race But in the stretch Princess Peg faltered, exhausted by the three laps she had run, and the ungainly Ohio colt lumbered past, legs up and hocks flashing as he was highreined to the finish while 35.000 spectators roared their acclaim. Lord Jim's time was 2:04‘4. Second money went to Muscletone. w r ho had won the third heat, and third to Princess Peg. winner of the first heat. Lord Jim won the second and these three entries were the only ones in the final heat. Muscletone, driven by Daryl Parshall, made a show’ of the field in the third heat, stepping off to a ten-length lead, and many liked the chances of the Kentucky-bred colt in the championship heat. But the Coldstream stud did not have the staying power of the long-legged Ohio trotter, and Lord Jim passed him in the stretch when Princess Peg broke and dropped out of the running.
Winner Pays 2 to 1 The victory paid Meflord $14,000 !of the $25,000 purse. Muscletone brought his Lexington <Ky.) owners $3,859.09 and Princess Peg earned $1,929.54 for the Lyle brothers of Plainfield, N. J. Others who finished in the money were Vitamine, fourth, paying $1,500; Emily Stokes, fifth, paying $1,200, and Reynolda, sixth, paying SI,OOO. Lord Jim was 2 to 1 in the betting, and even money in the final heat, as was Muscletone, with Princess Peg 3 to 1 to start and 3 to 2 in the final. ELLENBERGER SHADES WILLARD SPLASHERS The Ellenberger park water polo squad topped Willard park, 5 to 4, at Willard last night. Townsend. Tilman and Merkle tallied for Ellenberger, and Gerans, Reidy and Smith accounted for the Willard markers. McClure Beach will invade the Riviera Club polo tonight for a tilt with the league leaders. McClure forfeited to Garfield last night. j
