By Eddie Ash Wild Bill’s Speed Crown Threatened m m m Rose Has Chance to Surpass Cummings
w? A > ~
rvARING Mauri Rose, runner-up to Wild Bill Cummings in the Indianapolis ">OO-mile race on May 30, still has a chance to liecome national sjieed champion of 1934. Rose captured third place at the recent 100-mile event at Springfieid, 111., and l>oosted his point standing to a figure where a victory at Syracuse, N. Y., on Sept. 8, would lioost him ahead of the popular Indianapolis five-century winner. The race at Syracuse will be for 100 miles and may lie the last A. A. A. title event of the year in which points count toward the determination of the speed king of 1934. Rose is 70 points behind Cummings, who before the Springfield race, had a margin of 150 points on Mauri. Rose chased Bill across the finish line in the Memorial day classic here only 27 seconds behind. Speed pilots are awarded points on a sliding scale. The winner of a national championship race receives one point a mile plus a bonus of 20 per cent for victory. Second place rates 90 per cent of one point a mile, third place 80 per cent of one point a mile, and so on down the line. nun nun ON the record books of the contest board of the American Automobile Association—national governing body of the auto race sport—Cummings Is credited with the 600 points he won at Indianapolis and Rose has 530 points <450 at Indianapolis and 80 at Springfield!. There is a very strong possibility that Rose might snatch the valuable diamond-studded championship medal from Cummings at Syracuse because, if ill-fortune trails the Indianapolis winner there as it did at Springfield, and Rose finishes third or better, he will be the new king of the .4fc>eedways—provided, of course, no more championship events are run this season. This would upset all accepted precedent because the Indianapolis winner always is tentatively hailed as the national champion and few are the cases in the sport's annaLs that this has not rung true. nun u n n A RECENT case of a late-season “upset,” likened to the possibilities facing Bill Cummings, was the 1932 championship battle. That year Fred Frame won the international 500-mile sweepstakes at Indianapolis but when the season closed. Bob Carey was national champion. The event at Syracuse. Saturday, will be held in connection with the New York state fair. The race at Springfield on Aug. 25 w’as the sports feature of the Illinois state fair. n n n nub is the national championship rating under which Amer.T lea's ace drivers will run in the 100-mile title race at Syracuse on Sept 8 showing the points won and their place at Indianapolis and at Springfield.

Rowe exhibited his stuff before an estimated total attendance of 200.000. More than 77.000. one of the biggest turnouts in the history of the national pastime, paid to see the Schoolboy complete the sweep of a double-header with the New York Yankees, and upwards of 45.000 saw the lanky youth return to shut out Joe McCarthy's pastimers after only two days' rest to give his team an even break in another bargain bill. The attendance fell of! to 8.000 on the afternoon that Rowe spent in the dugout. The Bengals and Yankees were held idle by rain one day during the important series. n n n nun ON a Tuesday in Baston. 16.000 were present to see the Schoolboy make it fifteen straight, and there Is little question but that a good share of the 46.000 who stormed the gates of Fenway park on Sunday came in the hope of getting a peek at the phenomenal young man. Rowe equaled the American League record for straight winning performances before 15.000. the largest baseball assemblage in Washington this season, and the 34.000 who witnessed his first reverse since June 24 was the biggest in Philadelphia since the world series of 1931. Rowe is the principal reason why the Tigers will perform before nearly 750.000 persons at home this season.
Prepare for 'Fast Ones’ on This Year’s Gridiron Loopholes in Rules May Interfere with Code of Fair Play Unless Officials Get Busy.
BY DICK MILLER The football rules makers have left at least two first class openings in the code of fair play for the 1934 season, and unless they come forth with hurried interpretations, fans who witness gridiron play over the country this season are likely to see some "fast ones" pulled by quickthinking lads. nun
Coaches are not supposed to “beat" the rules, but in a two-hour field demonstration at the Indiana Officials Association clinic at Butler Bowl last Saturday. Coach Robert Nipper and his Shortndge high school squad proved a player coached deliberately to foul at a certain moment can save his team as much as nineteen plus yards. It all can happen on the punt. According to the old rules, when a player on the kicking team ran down the field and touched or gained possession of the punted ball just before it crossed the goal line he committed an infraction of the rules. The receiving team was given a choice of any options it might have, but the option usually rested in taking the ball on its own one or two-yard line and kicking out of danger" from behind its own goal line. nun PLAYERS on kicking teams have long followed the policy of touching a punted ball to the ground when it started to bound back toward their goal line; also to prevent the safety man from grabbing the oval and carrying it on a run-back that required tackling him. New rule No. 7. section 6. which covers ' kicks from scrimmage." specifically states the penalty—“ For a kicking team illegally to touch the ball: Loss of ball to opponents at spot of FOUL." Persons familiar with the football code also know that fouls, when committed by opposing teams at the same time, offset each other and the ball is takpn back and played over from the same spot as before.

AS an example of the picture we are trying to show, we will say Notre Dame is in possession of the ball in midfield. Purdue is the opponent. The Irish elect to punt and the ball goes bounding down the field and is just about to cross the goal line. If the ball gets into the end zone it will be a touchback and the ball will belong to Purdue on its own 20yard line. The end of the Notre Dame team, realizing the ball is about to cross the goal line, seizes it and downs it on the one-vard line. He has pulled a smart play, worth eighteen yards —that is, unless the Purdue boys are alert to the loop-hole in the rules. If they are and realize what is about to happen, they may commit a foul by holding a Notre Dame player or committing one in some other way to match the Notre Dame foul of touching the ball. There is nothing left then for the officials to do but to take the ball back to midfield and make Notre Dame put it in play again. n n n ONE naturally gains the impression the rule is certain to lead football coaches to instruct their boys to foul. And this is in the day when coaches are being sought upon to “clean up” the game. A. L. Trester. commissioner of Indiana high school athletics, told coaches the burden of keeping the game clean could be made much easier for officials if the coaches spent time urging clean play and taking from the game any player of their team committing fouls that escape the notice of the officials. From the spirit -of - clean - play standpoint, if a couple of coaches not interested in beating the rules pit their teams against each other, the feat of an end on a kicking team getting down the field fast and taking possession of a kicked ball just before it croases the goal line might be one to draw plaudits from the opponents. But if the coach happens to be pitting his skill against

CHAMPION ROSS KEYED TO FORCE FIGHT
Barney Plans Swift Attack in Title Bout Welter King and McLarnin Reach New York to End Training. BY STUART CAMERON United Pres* Sports Editor NEW YORK, Sept. 4.—Smiling at the string of hoodoos the superstitious have compiled to show he will lose his welter title, Barney Ross established headquarters here today to complete training for Thursday’s fifteen-round championship bout with Jimmy McLarnin. Ross planned his last stiff workout at Stillman's gym in New York today.. “This hoodoo business is getting tiresome,” he said. “You'd think ring titles were won and lost by walking under ladders, seeing pairs of black crows, finding four-leaf clovers and having black cats cross your path. I haven't any idea but that I will keep my title. I plan to set a fast pace and keep going.” Even so, the jinx-minded ring fans are thinking about hoodoos more than about fighting form. There's the matter of fact that the last nine welter champions have lost their titles in the first defenses. There's the record that McLarnin has amassed in winning subsequently over rivals who previously had beaten him. This is Barney's return bout with jimmy. McLarnin moved into town today to polish off training, and many fans visited the quarters of both champion and challenger. McLarnin is the former champ. The attendance may equal the 40.000 figure established in the original bout. C. 0. Free Stars in State Skeet Event Tops Stevenson in Battle for Feature Laurels. C. O. Free and Tom Stevenson waged a close duel for the state skeet championship at the Indianapolis Skeet Club yesterday, with Free the victor in a shootoff Free cracked tw'enty-five straight, while Stevenson broke twenty-four. J. Leonard turned in a 93x100 score to cop Class B honors. Charles Van Meter tied with J. Morgan at 79x100 in the Class C event, and Van Meter won the shootoff with twenty-three in twenty-five. Morgan cracked one less. Free collected more laurels in the 410-gauge long shoot, breaking forty-six out of fifty. S. Pratt won the 410 short. Fred Holliday won the handicap shoot, and Mrs. Simmons annexed the women’s title. Team honors went to the Indianapolis Skeet Club with a total of 229 out of 250. Thom and Rattan Signed in Mat Go Coach Billy Thom of Indiana university will defend his junior middleweight title against Silent Rattan in the main event of the first of the indoor mat show at Tomlinson hall Friday nigiit. Rattan is undefeated here. The two supporting bouts will be for two out of three falls with one hour time limit. Ben Bolt, rough Sioux Indian, will see action in one of the double semi-finals. GRANT DAZEY TAKES TWO ROQUE MATCHES Grant Dazey, defending champion, copped two city roque matches in the round-robin tournament yesterday at the Fall creek courts. Dazey defeated George Atkinson. 32 to 13. and then trounced C. W. Hines. 32 to 0. ' Charles Walters defeated D. W. McCabe. 8 to 6. JENKINS. WINS SHOOT R. M. Jenkins of Orleans took first honors in two events at the Crooked Creek Gun Club yesterday. He copped the singles shoot with 198 connections in 200 tries, and cracked fifty straight in the handicap event. WOMEN OPEN GOLF PLAY WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. W. Va.. Sept. 4.—Marion Miley of Lexington, Ky„ medalist in the Mason and Dixon women's golf play here, meets Mrs. H. H. Schwartz of New York today in. the opening round, while Fritzi Stifel of Wheeling, Va., who tied with Miss Miley, will, tackle Mrs. J. Kenneth Eisman of Bryn Mawr, Pa. i a mentor who is not desirous of fol- , lowing the codes of fair play he will 1 become a “goat” of the rules. The rules committee is expected to take care of the matter soon. nun ANOTHER rule that has officials stymied is the one pertaining to substitutes. The rule prohibits a substitute player except the signal caller from talking until one play has elapsed. The modern coaches now have their charges playing several different defensive formations. They change according to the instructions of a signal caller. Last year the rules committee rendered an opinion that the signal caller referred to in the rule book was the man calling signals for the offensive team, or the team in possession of the ball. Coaches argue a signal caller is a signal caller, whether he be on the offense or defense. This. too. is expected to draw an official interpretation in the near future.

Toledo Hens Invade Tribe Park for Six-Game Series Action at Perry Stadium Tonight Will Be Free to Women; Colonels Make Garrison Finish. After splitting even in four games with the Louisville Colonels, the Indians will tackle the Toledo Mud Hens under the lights tonight at Perry stadium at 8:15. The contest will be free to women fans. It has been made a "special ladeis’ night” owing to the fact yesterday was a
holiday. The Hens are scheduled at the Tribe park for six games in five days and they will be followed by the Columbus Red Birds. The Colonels made their final 1934 appearance in Indianapolis yesterday and left for home this morning to take on the Birds at Parkway field, Louisville. Columbus now holds a lead of three games over the Indians in the race for the honor of leading the eastern division of the A. A. and Minneapolis is practically “in” with the western division bunting with a lead of six and one-half games over Milwaukee. In the regular eight-club race the Millers top the second-place Columbut team by five and one-half games. The Colonels staged a Garrison finish to defeat the Redskins here yesterday afternoon, 8 to 7, by scoring five runs in the ninth inning. It was “hard to take” for the home boys. The Tribe was out in front, 7 to 3, going into the ninth when Jim Turner went to pieces on the mound and was knocked out. Lefty Logan relieved, but was not quite ready to put on the brakes and an error by Vincent Sherlock
Lord Jim Shows Speed Wares at Fair Today Hambletonian Winner Heads Array of Fast Horses; J. E. Vonian Wins Labor Day Feature. Lord Jim, winner of the Hambletonian Stake and ranked as the foremost juvenile trotter in the world, will run in the 2:14 trot, feature race of today's harness card at the state fair. The famous trotter will be challenged by a fast field of eight, with Cobelle and Luella Capp
appearing as first contenders. “Doc” Parshall, who has piloted Lord Jim in his many conquests, has given assurance that he will drive the spirited youngster. Parshall is considered the leading reinsnian in the game today. Other feature races on today’s bill at the fairground track include a 2:19 pace, a 2-year-old Indiana trot, and a 2:26 trot. Only the 2-year-old trotting event is a stake, and is sponsored by the state fair association. Edna Lincoln and Judge Brewer appear as favorites to outrun the field of eight in this event. Another field of eight will run in the 2:26 trot with Duesenberg, Calumet and Judge Blizzard drawing the pre-race nod. The program was scheduled to start at 1:30. J. E. Vonian, reined by Jay Douglass, won the Lockerbie trot, considered the leading annual fair trot, yesterday, pulling away from Miss Abbedale in two straight heats. The first heat was slow time, with Vonian in command all the way. J. E. Vonian made the first half of the course in 1:06. but stepped off the stretch in iiS’z. The second heat, how'ever, proved to be the fastest time of the day, with the Douglass charger finishing a safe distance ahead of Napoleon Grant. The time was 2:02';. Closest competition of the day was seen in the Mayor's trot. Angel Child overtook Wayne Lee in the middle of the mile to cop the first heat in 2:08’ 2. Finish of the second heat was the most thrilling of the day with David Thornton nosing out Angel Child in the stretch. However, Angel Child came back to take the third heat and the race. In the 2:23 trot, Top Knot, a young gelding owned by Mrs. Dick Reynolds of North Carolina, outsped the field. Counterpart Maid won the 2-year-old pace. Single G. most famous of aging racers, appeared on the track and acted as nervous and unruly as a young "first timer.”

BIGGEST igft c > vif§l G pi R H; VS y A REALM VALUERS* TOBACCO makes the cigar. Ten-Cent tobacco makes a 10c cigai — usually. Charles Denby is the exception!
