By Eddie Ash Bill Terry Has Tifjer Rooters Snarling mm* Marquard’s Record 19 or 20 Straight?
rill TERRY minces no words when he wants to get under the hide of somebody, and he’s quite successful with his line of sarcasm. He “rode’' California so much about its earthquakes when his team trained there in the spring of 1933 that the Californians wanted to deport him. Last fall the Giants' manager caused the Washington Senators to feel ill at ease and mentally upset when he made caustic comment on the Senators’ fashion of playing the game. Then the Giants went out and took advantage of Washington mistakes and trotted off with the larger slice of the world's series melon. At thi3 time Terry is directing his darts at the Detroit figers, the Giants’ prospective rivals in the 1934 fall classic. Now the whole ot the state of Michigan is in a mood to tear Bill apart for belittling their beloved Bengals. Ihe Giants director popped off, in part, as follows, in a published interview the other day: *‘l believe the New York Yankees would be tougher than the Tigers in a world series. The St. Louis Cardinals are a better ball club that Detroit. Mickey Cochrane's club can be pitched to. And unless he has changed radically since we batted against him in an exhibition game, we wouldn t mind going against Schoolboy Rowe. The Schoolboy isn t as fast as Hal Schumacher of the Giants.” A few more speeches like that and it will take a thousand Clyde Beattys to hold the Tiger followers. o a o a o a SCHOOLBOY ROWE has won nineteen games for Detroit this season and ha., tacked up fifteen consecutively, within one of the American League record of sixteen, held by Walter Johnson, Joe Wood and Leftj Grove. The major league record is nineteen straight, in the National league, posted by Rube Marquard, the old Indianapolis star, in 1912. Marquard was with the New York Giants at the time. With Rowe enjoying a marvelous victory streak the Marquard achievement has bounced back into print and the A1 Munro Elias baseball statistics company asserts that Marquard was entitled to twenty straight back twenty-two years ago. The Elias accountants say that scorers of a certain game in which the Rube acted as relief ' muffed one” and credited the game to the •lifted'’ pitcher, when, in their opinion, the victory really belonged to Marquard. a a a a a a ACCORDING to the statisticians, the confusion on Marquard occurred on April 20, 1912, after the famous southpaw had won two straight games. On that afternoon Rube relieved pitcher Jeff Tesreau in the ninth inning against Brooklyn. The score was New York, 2; Brooklyn, 0, as the ninth opened, Brooklyn batting first. The Dodgers tallied three runs off Tesreau and took the lead 3 to 2, on two walks, a single, sacrifice and error, with none out. Marquard then took up the pitching and retired the side without a run or hit. In the Giants' half of the ninth, Heinie Groh singled off Nap Rucker. Brooklyn star hurler, and Art Wilson walloped a circuit drive, scoring Groh ahead, giving New York the game, 4 to 3. If the statisticians are correct on facts, that victory belonged to the Rube because when Groh crossed the plate with the tying run it became a “new game” from the New York pitching standpoint, and Marquards victory when Wilson checked m with the winning run. a a a a a a LLOYD CARTER. Hercules A. C. matchmaker, is out the price of one hat. Jack Dempsey, Carter and Floyd Fitzsimmons, the former heavyweight champion's booking agent, were walking to the L. Strauss store yesterday when the Manassa Mauler became playful. He reached out with his iron hands and crushed Fitzsimmons' hat down over his eyes. Arriving at the store Jack made another grab for the skimmer and in the scuffle the straw lid was torn to shreds. Jack was "going collegiate,” and had no top piece to defend. Matchmaker Carter, wearing a felt hat, thought it great fun and laughed heartily. L Strauss & Cos. got a sale out of Dempsey for anew bonnet and then a friendly argument ensued over ways and means of supplying Fitzsimmons with headgear to replace his destroyed hay stack. Carter lost out. with one against two. and was tagged. He had to buy a new lid for Fitz. Nice going, Llovd,” Dempsey said. “Thank you so nuch," said Fitzsimmons, “You can't beat this good old Hoosier generosity.” a a a a a a DEMPSEY will return to Indianapolis tomorrow to referee the three last bouts on the fistic card at Perry stadium, postponed last night on account of rain. Jack holds high regard for the fighting ability of Max Baer, th? new ruler of fistiana. “Max is a great kid.” the old Mauler commented, "and he's got the power and heart to keep him in the championship for two years at least. After that it is conceivable that somebody may come along who is better. “Max is a clown, but he is a good-natured clown and has a grand sense of humor. He can fight, too. To those who offer criticism on his antics, all you can say is that the kid won the championship. Primo Camera is a great wrestler. He's got a heart, but he's no boxer. He's just a great big man who doesn't quite know what it's all about in the fistic ring.”

HUSTLING INDIANS FACE LEAGUE LEADERS
McGuire Beats Simpson; Faces Ward Johnson Max Buell Meets Fritz Cox of Terre Haute in State Amateur Golf. BY DICK MILLER limes Staff Writer. FRENCH LICK, Ind., Aug. 24. ! Johnny McGuire, Indianapolis, was one up on Ward Johnson, Blximmgton, at the fourteenth ho.e of their thirty-six-hole semi-finals match in the state amateur golf championship here today. McGuire was out in 40 to Johnson’s 41. Max Buell, also of Indianapolis, was all square with Fritz Cox, Terre Haute, at eleven holes in the other semi-finals match. Each had 38 on the outgoing nine. FRENCH LICK, Ind., Aug. 24. Shorn of all its pre-tournament favorites and without one single player among the four still seeking I the 1934 state amateur golf championship who had ever before advanced beyond the quarter-finals of state title play, the thirty-fourth annual tournament here presented a program of two thirty-six-hole semi-final matches today over French Lick’s hills course. The cast was as follows: Ward W. Johnson, Bloomington, 46-year-old dark horse who qualified in the championship flight for the first time this year and captured all the major upset honors Wednesday when he sent two tournament favorites, Phil Talbot and Dwight Mitchell to the showers. Johnson continued his sensational play Thursday with a 4-and-3 victory in a thirty-six-hole quarterfinal match over Mark Porter, Richmond city champion, in a tilt that was never in doubt. Today Johnson's opponent was John McGuire, Indianapolis star, former capitol city public links champion and captain of several national public links teams. McGuire, smiling young Irishman of 31 years, staged the major upset of the quarter-final play when he eliminated the veteran Johnny Simpson, three times a champion and several times runner up, by a score of 5 and 4. Fires Four Birdies Trailing at the end of eighteen holes by a one-hole margin, McGuire fired some of the most beautiful golf of the tournament during the afternoon round to be three up at. twenty-seven holes, with a subpar 33, on the outgoing nine. McGuire had four birdies. He was still two under par when the match ended on the fourteenth hole. Twice before, McGuire qualified for the state championship, but each time lost first-round matches. Third in the cast was young Fritz Cox, Terre Haute, the youngest of the quartet still in the race for the throne Bill Bassett vacated this year when he failed to enter this tournament. Cox once was state junior champion, in 1931. The last time the state tournament was played over this course he reached the semifinals, but was defeated. Cox played fine golf yesterday to defeat young Charlie Harrell of Bloomington, 6 and 5. The Terre Haute star was two up at the eight-een-hole mark with a sub-par 71. He maintained the same margin at the twenty-seven-hole mark and then fired a birdie and three pars at his opponent to win four straight holes and end the issue on the thirteenth green. Fritz’ opponent today was another Indianapolis veteran, 43-year-old Max Buell, Highland Club champion, 1933 Indiarapolis district title winner and a 1 iksman capable of firing winning g >lf in any match as evidenced by .is 2-and-l victory over young Bill Reed Jr., Indianapolis public links champion in the quarter-finals yesterday. Stage • lose Match Buell was one up at the end of nine holes with a 37, one over par. He was home in 38 and 75, but Reed came home in even par 36 for a 74 and they were all even at lunch time. Both were three over par on the third nine holes, so the match still remained all even. A birdie on the twenty-eighth hole gave Max an eagle and he stepped in to claim victory when Reed took three putts on two greens as they battled down the stretch. The " fall of Simpson removed from the tournament the last of the players identified with previous rule in Indiana golf. The variety of golf fired by McGuire to defeat the veteran ex-champ gives him and edge over Johnson today. The late drive made by Porter, who hung on tenaciously after the match became dormie on the eleventh green, took its toll of the Bloomington player's stamina. Cox, who has improved his game f gradually this summer with the idea of bringing it to its peak here this week, holds an edge over the | veteran Buell, but in match play j the Highland star knows all tl\e tricks and any miscues by the Terre Haute youngster will likely be taken advantage of. LOCAL TROTTER VICTOR LA PORTE. Ind.. Aug. 24.—Judge Buzzard won the 2:28 feature trot- ; ting race at the La Porte county fair yesterday in straight heats against Alma W. and Jimmie Frisco.

The golfers pictured above made up the trio of ex-state champions who entered and met defeat in the state amateur golf championship, now being played at French Lick. They are (left to right): Johnny Simpson, Washington, three times winner: Dwight Mitchell, French Lick, winner in 1925, and Bob Resener, Kokomo, also a three-time winner. Resener lost, one up, to Harold Brewer, state junior champion, in the opening round, while Mitchell was an upset victim of Ward Johnson, Bloomington, in the third round. Simpson, who first won the title in 1915, and repeated in 1921 and 1926, survived three eighteen-hole matches of the present tournament by defeating Marvin Heckman, Indianapolis; Earl Hudlin, Bloomington, and Ray Roberson, another Capital City player, in that order. Simpson entered his thirty-six-hole quarter-final match with John McGuire, Indianapolis, yesterday as the only remaining champion and a favorite to take the 1934 title. He led one up at the half-way mark, but succumbed to McGuire's subpar golf in the afternoon.

Redskins Battle Millers in Crucial Twin Bill Action; Page Shines Against Blues Tribe Climbs to Within 2 I*2 Games of Top as Vance Holds Kaws Hitless for Six Innings: Five Tilts Scheduled in Minneapolis Stronghold. By Times Special KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Aug. 24.—After knocking off Roger Peckinpaugh's Blues three out of four the Indians departed for Minneapolis last night to begin a sene.- of five games in three days with the league-leading Millers. The opening action of the crucial set of battles was a doubleheader this afternoon. The Tribesmen were led to believe that a single tilt was to open the series, and they were surprised when they were informed at the last moment that the Millers had changed the program. The Redskins defeated Kansas City here yesterday, 6 to 3, and advanced to within two and one-half games of the Minneapolis pacesetters, who were held idle by wet grounds along with Columbus.
Vance Page pitched brilliant ball against the Kaws and held the local ' pastimers hitless for six innings Asa matter of fact, he had two down in the seventh before the Blues registered a hit, when they collected four, their total for the day.. However, he weakened in the eighth and was removed, and Hal Chamberlain went to the mound and halted a Kansas City threat with two runners on the paths and none out. The Redskins won three out of four in the series at Meuhlebach field and boosted their season’s record with the Kaws to sixteen victories in twenty-two games. Scouts for severai major league clubs will be in the Twin Cities to look over the Tribe and don’t be surprised if the sale of Vince Sherlock, Bob Logan, Johnny Riddle and Vernon George Washington is announced one of these days. Manager Red Killefer admitted yesterday in Kansas City that scouts were interested in that quartet. Joe Sprinz made a nice play in the second inning to nip Kreevich at second. Blues’ third baseman was trying to advance on a passed ball that had eluded the catcher and rolled about fifteen feet toward the grand stand. Sprinz hustled the ball and got his man with a perfect throw that reached Vince Sherlock as Kreevich hit the dirt. The Tribe made an error, a single and an infield out good for a run in the third stanza, Lee scoring from second while the Blues were trying to complete a double plaj. Every man in uniform and both umpires halted to rubberneck at nine army planes that flew over the field in formation, with two Indians on base in the fourth. The excitement over, Washington went home from third when the Blues again missed a double play, after Sprinz had grounded to Knothe. Vance Page worked six and twothirds scoreless innings, but with two gone in the seventh Stumps beat out a hit to Vince Sherlock and Horn. Niemiec and Crandall followed with hits to score three runs. The Indians committed two errors during the spasm in the seventh. Jack Sherlock’s triple and a single by Lee scored a marker for the Tribe in the eighth. It was a slick bit of pinch pitching by Chamberlain. With three on and none out in the eighth, he retired the side on an easy grounder and two toy flies. Two were on when he took up the toil and on his own error the bases were filled. Then he went to work. The Blues could comb only four hits off the deliveries of Page and Chamberlain, the Indians’ righthanders, while the Indians got twelve off Carson and Stiles. Cotelle, V. Sherlock and Lee led the Indianapolis batsmen. The Indians scored one run In the third and another in the fourth and two in the seventh to make it
4 to 0, but the Blues got three in their half of the seventh. The Indians put the game away with one in the eighth and another in the ninth. a a a THREE IN FOUR INDIANAPOLIS AB R H O A E Cotelle. !f 5 1 0 0 0 V.
