Women Links Stars Battle for U.S. Title Virginia Van Wie Seeks Third Straight Crown in Dangerous Field. #jr Vmt-H rm, WHITFMARSH. Pa . Oct. 1— As the women's national golf champiorsh.p opened today over the Whiterr.arsh Valley Country Club course, it was apparent Miss Virginia Van Wie of Chicago must defeat one of the finest feminine fields - • < ed :/ she expects to become the fourth woman ever to win three straight titles. The Inclusion of twelve foreign entries in the field of 149 provided the possibility that the crown may go overseas for the first ume since Gladys Ravencroft bore It to England In 1913. In addition, the menace of youth loomed as the tourney got under way. The youngsters may shake out all the reputed stars just as they did in the men s championship at Brookline. Among the infant prodigies who have the spunk and shots to worry the oldsters is Dorothy Kirby. Georgia state champion, who at the age of 14 comes out of Atlanta just as ambitious as her townsman. Bobby Jones, was in 1916 at the same age. There are at least three other girls of 16 with reputations already well established such as Dorothy Traung of San Francisco; Betty Jameson of Dallas, southern champion, and Betsy MacLeod of the Buffalo district. The popular policy of qualifying sixty-four instead of thirty-two contestants in today's medal test has made it a wide open tourney with six match-play rounds crowded into five days
LET S CO _ FISHING 10 GEORGE PfX H.DENNYjjB-
RM ESULTS arc what count, after . all. so if you find the fishing editor fishing in the near future it probably will be near the mouth of Monon creek on Shafer lake. It was my privilege to gaze on a beautiful mixed catch of fish last week and they all were taken from that spot in two days by Lee Munger. Silver bass, channel cats, bank cats, pike and a few blue gills made up the string and the total weight was close to 200 pounds. Large chub minnows accounted for all the fish except the gills. They hit on corn borers Mr. Munger had his best lurk at night, especially with the silver bass, one of which weighed four pounds. One of the pike was thirty-five inches long, a true great northern. The best catfish was at least a twelve pounder. a a a MUSNT forget Freeman when the good reports arc being passed out. John Stenger and Bill Landemeier took six small mouths there a week ago and they averaged two pounds. a a a AND a member of the fly fishing fraternity caught his limit of small mouths recently on a home made deer hair top water lure almost within the city limits. One was a three and one-half pounder. I'll swear to the truth of this statement although I've forgotten his name and promised not to tell the location. a a a ART TIERNAN can't forget the battles with those St. Croix river small mouths this summer. With Ed Higgins and Foley Shaw he made a flftorn-nule boat trip that netted nine keepers. Art swears that one little rascal, not larger than a pound and a half, towed the boat at appreciable speed through one of the still stretches of the river before it could be landed. Another, a bit larger, jumped at least four feet above the water. Some fun on a fly rod. A highlight of the trip for Ed Higgins was the time when he was fishing for blue gills and a pound pickerel took the bait. It was a strain on Ed. the tiny hook and the fly rod. but everything held. m m m ONE of the staff got a letter from a friend just back from Park Rapids. Minn., that tells of a nine and one-half pound bass on display in a store, supposedly caught by Lee Meyer of Indianapolis. Will Mr. Meyer please come forward and affirm or deny this report, and if it is true, tell us how. when and where, and what good luck pieces he carries? Say what you will, a fish that size is a fine broth of a bass, and should the fishing editor ever tangle successfully with one near the weight, he would feel that the world of Micropterus had been conquered and turn to tuna, tarpon or whales for thrills. • * * ONLY thirty days more to get in line for the prizes in the fishing contest conducted by Hoffman's sporting goods store. Oct. 31 is positively the deadline. A fine bunch of fish are entered but there is room for more, particularly in the pan fish classes. An outsize sunfish. crappie or red eye may win a swell piece of tackle. It won't hurt to try.

Opening Tests Reveal Hoosier Gridiron Power Indiana U. Warriors Light Path in Victory Parade With Brilliant Triumph Over Buckeye Rivals. BY DICK MILLER Yea Bo' Whatta game, whatta licking the Indiana university moleskin wearers handed the vaunted Ohio university warriors at Bloomington Saturday! The scoreboard read. New Deal. 27; Ohio U., 0, and in that verdict lies more than one little yam of interest.
While the Crimson warriors were turning in a victory in their first time out under the guidance of A. N. <Bo) McMillin, former Centre college star, quite a lot of activity was taking place elsewhere on Hooner gridirons, or that involved Hoosier teams. That every out-of-state effort to submerge an Indiana team failed certainly is worth mentioning. Secondary Elevens Shine As we predicted last week, the tno of secondary college teams, Earlham. Valparaiso and Manchester, taking on Holbrook (Ohio). Illinois State Normal and Biuffton • Ohio) in the order named, were more than able to take care of their interests. Victories in each instance were decisive. The game between Hanover and Wabash lived up to all advance expectations and was a dog fight from start to finish. The downstaters emerged victorious for the second consecutive year, this time to the tune of 6-0. De Pauw's undefeated record of 1933 extended into 1934 as the Tigeis swept Oakland City aside easily. 33-0. Likewise another luminary of 1933, Charles <Cock* Bush of Indiana State began where he left off last season and Evansville college found placing a hand on him extremely difficult. The State eleven won. 20*0. Franklin got off to an 18 to 6 win over Rose Poly Friday and Butler took Ball State in a night game, 13 to 4. That took every Hoosier college team into action over the week-end save Purdue and Notre Dame. Both these teams engaged in the annual varsity-freshman regulation game. The Boilermakers trounced the yearlings, 65 to 0, while Elmer Layden's new dealers found it hard to grind out a 28 to 0 win over the rhinies. Bo Off to Great Start But the victory of Bo McMillin’s Scrappin' Hoosiers was the stunning result to the football world, not only here but everywhere. McMillin is a national grid figure and fans everywhere, save possibly those in the confines of the Buckeye state, were anxious to see the gray thatched mentor off to a flying start in his Big Ten coaching venture. As Coach Noble Kizer walked from the field at Purdue, he felt Bo's win meant a lot to Big Ten football, but like others he was unable to figure how Indiana could wallop a team that twice in recent years had held Indiana teams to 7-6 scores, and last year forced Purdue’s great team to the limit to punch out a 13-7 victory. Most of that

1933 Ohio U. team was back in harness this fall. But it was an alert Indiana team Saturday. One that got an early break and then rose to supreme heights while enjoying the happiness that goes with a 6-0 first sixminute lead. For instance, when Ray Fox, former Michigan City high school star and a sophmore who was called in to fill the vacancy caused by Vernon Huffman's injury last week, fumbled the ball after carrying it to the Ohio 13-year line, Chris Dal Sasso, another sophmore who was a star tackle at. Clinton high, was cio the job and took the flying oval out of the air and ran over the goal line standing up. Indiana tackled well and formed fine interference, the latter accounting for Indiana's second touchdown in the second quarter, when Walker hurled a long pass to Veller, who ran fourteen yards while his mates cut down the opposition tacklers. Another pass accounted for Indiana's third score. Antonini snagged a 30-yard pass from Walker and ran ten yards. Steady line smashing by Yoker and Burton carried the ball down, where Burton scored. Veller place-kicked the extra point after his touchdown and Kelso place-kicked extra points after the last two scores. . Those who have watched the progress of Hanover grid teams under the guidance of veteran coach John Van Lieu do not look upon Hilltopper victories any more as upsets. Last year they defeated the Wabash Cavemen 20-12, and Saturday at Crawfordsville a passing attack late in the game gave them a 6-0 verdict.
Bush Leads State Football Scoring Sycamore Ace Has 18 Points to Banet’s 16. Charles Bush, Indiana State, today held the lead in the individual scoring in the Indiana intercollegiate football conference with eighteen points. Bush, who led the conference in scoring last season, scored three touchdowns as Indiana State defeated Evansville, 20 to 0. Banet, Manchester, tallied two touchdowns and four extra points for a total of sixteen in his team’s 28-to-12 victory over Bluffton (O.) college. Fribley, De Pauw, and Hall, Earlham, each scored thirteen points in opening games. No other player scored more than seven points over the weekend.

City Loop Squads Play Hard Fought Gridiron Battles Brightwood and Irvington Win Openers. Four closely-fought games marked the opening of the Em-Roe Senior Football League yesterday. A blocked punt, which rolled into the end zone, gave the Brightwood A. C. a 2 to 0 victory over the Shelby Sendee team at Brookside park. The Irvington Merchants scored late in the game to defeat the SoAthics, 13 to 0. Two scoreless tie games resulted when Beech Grove and the Spades fought it out at Brookside park, and the Lawrence A. C. squad battled the Midway Flyers at Garfield park. More than 2.000 fans watched the Lawrence A. C.s and Midway Flyers play a game replete with forward passes, end runs and punts. The game was a punting duel between Fresh, Midway half back, and Rudolph, full back of the Lawrence A. C. The Lawrence team in the last quarter carried the ball to the 18-yard line, where Rudolph tried a place kick. It was blocked and the Midways recovered the -ball. Late in the game McCellean,-„ quarter back, circled Lawrence's right end for twenty-five yards to the goal line line, but the ball was brought back on a penalty. Phillips’ eighty-five-yard run for a touchdown featured the game between the Irvington Merchants and the So-Athics. Blackburn, also of the Irvington team, plunged across the goal line for the other touchdown. STANDINGS W. L. T. Irvington Merchants 10 0 Brightwood A. C 10 0 Lawrence A.

The Theatrical World ‘Cleopatra’ Just Pageant of Pomp, Critic Says —BY WALTER D. HICKMAN
WHEN it comes to giving a movie a million-dollar background. Cecil B. De Mille has no competition. His "Cleopatra glorifies the background of the queen of the Nile, history s prize vampire. De Mille has allowed his imagination to run wild and way ~ up in the money
figure. “Cleopatra'' is a pageant, a procession of elegance, of pomp and ceremony and a lot of love' making, but De Mille has failed to be historical as far as characters are concerned. There is no inspirational acting revealed on the part of any one in the cast. The scenery, the back-
'
Henry Wilcoxon
ground, the pomp and splendor prevent individual acting of fine degree. If Shakespeare had written the conversation in this version it would have registered more effectively than the modern street gossip that De Mille has his actors speak. Claudette Colbert is just Hollywood's idea of a queen. She never makes a queen out of Cleopatra. Warren William makes Julius Caesar a sort of a Huey Long, always a cheap politician, ready at any moment for an affair with a beautiful woman. Henry Wilcoxon gives the best performance of the hundreds in the cast. His Marc Anthony is interesting and he is able to make him at times a pretty human fellow who lets a woman make a fool out of him. “Cleopatra” is the most elaborate movie made in many years. It is the biggest thing that De Mille has turned out. Asa spectacle it is a grand and costly production. As historical drama, it is not there. It is, however, the most elaborate and perfumed dream that ever came out of Hollywood. Now at the Indiana. u u n Constance Bennett Scores I ASK you to consider “Outcast Lady” as a screen drama by Zoe Akins and not as Michael Arlen's “The Green Hat.” As it impressed me, Miss Akins has taken Iris March, the chief character in the Arlen story, and has built anew Hollywood idea around her. Asa
screen drama by a clever woman writer, “Outcast Lady” is interesting entertainment and a pretty good character story of a woman who suffers and suffers.' Iris March inherited all of the vices of a bad family. Her brother matched her in every de-
Miss Bennett
tail. The author permits the brother to die a drunkard’s death while he bestows his love on the sister whom he accused of depriving him of his best man friend. The author allows Irish to suffer, suffer and suffer and be misunderstood and at last allows her to win the man she should have married ten minutes after the story started. There are several interesting scenes, nicely and sanely acted when Iris starts her mad whirl. Constance Bennett who plays Iris turns out, I think, a mighty interesting character study. Some of her scenes with her brother, Napier (Herbert Marshall), and Hugh Williams as Gerald, her brother’s friend, are smartly and splendidly done. Miss Bennett reveals a marked advance in her dramatic scenes. She reveals herself in this movie a highly competent actress. She is handicapped with a silly and happy ending. The only way out for Irish March was death, but the Hollywood formula gave her the loving arms of a married man. You will remember the performance that Mr. Marshall turns out and Mr. Williams does a lot of realistic things to Gerald, which make up, not pleasant, but effective drama. The photography, sound and direction are splendid. Now at Loew’s Palace. ana Nice Date Night Movie “'T'HE Richest Girl in the World" A puts Miriam Hopkins in the class of being one of the most competent and effective commediennes on the screen today. As Dorothy, the richest girl in the world, Miss Hopkins turns out a performance of a young woman who has a grand sense of humor. She also is a very serious individual. She knows that men love her because she is the richest girl in the world. So she becomes her own secretary and presents her real secretary as the richest girl in the world. Dorothy is in love with Anthony, played by Joel McCrea in the best manner.

Anthonv knows Dorothy as the secretary to “the richest girl in the world.” The make-believe rich girl is played by Fay Wray in a well mannered and educated manner. That's the plot and frameup that Dorothy creates to find out if Anthony loves her for herself alone. Before she gets the real answer. Dorothy has laughed and cried herself into several difficult situations. I am not going to tell you more of the story. It's the old formula, but it makes a mighty nice and nifty date night movie. The acting on the part of Miss Hopkins, McCrea, Miss Wray, Henry Stephenson, Reginald Denny and George Meeker all aid in developing the make-believe in this modern fairy story. Now at the Circle. a a a Concerning Lyric Bill AFTER getting off to a slow, monotonous start, the "Miami Nights” revue develops into a bangup piece of entertainment. Herb Larimer precedes the revue itself with an act of cycling which is both comical and expertly done. Jimmie Hodges acts as master of ceremonies for the revue and intersperses the various acts with quips of humor, some of which click and some of which do not. In the revue, the Three Fonzals give a peppy exhibition of singing, dancing and comedy; the Magdison twins sing well and go through some fair dances; Ann Bradley, a Kate Smith type of singer, presents several numbers. Her personality, rather than her actual singing ability, put these songs across.

Shaeffer and Nelson are thejr* with an act of speedy tap dancing, which has smoothness and novelty for its selling points. A1 Burnett is the highlight of tho show with his “outfront'’ comedians who keep him going with their constant interruptions and back talk. The picture offered is Zane Grey's "The Dude RAnger.” starring Irene Hervey (borrowed from M-G-M for thus picture* and George OBnen. The plot concerns a dude from the bright lights who came west to claim his ranch, but gets entangled in a maze of circumstances which result in plenty of action for all concerned. Os course there is a girl, a villain and a to-be-pitied father. This is little better than the average western. Now at the Lyric.—(By J. W. TANARUS.)
