By Joe Williams Gallery Flits Past Picard Bob Jones Plays Too Safe m m m Sarazen Has Cow Trouble

Ga., April 6.—ls this masters’ golf tournament lasts long enough the good .people down here finally will recognize that Henry Picard is in it. All the slim youngster from Hershey, Pa., has done up to now is shoot an opening round of 67 and a following round of 68, to put him nine under par. 1 And yet so far as the customers are concerned he might just as well be playing at Oatneal, Okla., or some such spot. Once in a while a handful of stragglers will pause to watch him make a shot, but even when this happens the stragglers are on their way to or from another part of the course. To be specific they are either on their way to pick up the match Bob Jones is playing in or coming back from it. The customers down here Just simply refuse to believe that Jones isn’t still good enough to hold his own with the present-day professional. It's a loyalty that is*more poetic than practical. a a a FOR a brief spell yesterday it looked as if this native loyalty would not be altogether misplaced. Jones went out in 33, three under par for the first nine, the best first nine he has ever played in this tournament. The customers were highly Jubilant and there were optimistic visions of a record-breaking round. But as it happened Jones was scoring better than his stroking warranted. For one thing, he was babying his short chips and putts but still getting results, and it was only a matter of time when the chips and putts would refuse to be babied. Playing the back nine the best he could get was a 39, including a six on the long, difficult thirteenth. a a a AN incident developed in the playing of the thirteenth that vividly marks the difference between the Jones of today and the Jones of steady competition. Jones was paired with his eld rival. Gene Sarazen. The thirteenth is a 640-yard dog leg with the angle breaking to the left. They both got fine drives, with Jones playing the odd. It is wholly possible to get home with a long second, but a brook in front of the green invites poisonous trouble. Jones was already one over for the second nine at this {joint, which meant he was in no position to play safe. But play safe he did, taking a No. 4 iron to land short, of the brook. On the other hand. Sarazen, who was in a better position to play safe in relation to his position in the standing, took a brassie and went boldly for the green, executing a splendid shot. The result was Sarazen got a birdie four and Jones dropped a stroke to par. ana IN the days when Jones was trying to win all the championship he would never have hesitated to take a chance on any shot. That’s one of the things he has lost, the gay daring of the confident champion. Now he is satisfied just to turn in a creditable card. In the old days he was satisfied with nothing less than sensational results. His even par 72 yesterday represents his current form. The day’s developments left Jones eleven shots back of Picard, the pacemaker. Even when Bob was throwing grand slams at the boys he wasn't good enough to overcome so large a handicap. The odds are about 50 to 1 against his moving to the front in the 36 holes that remain to be played. It is no secret either that Jones is resigned to his predicament. In fact, he is beginning to wonder whether he should continue to play in his own tournament. a a a IT was interesting to see Jones paired again with Sarazen. When they were contemporaries in the big golf shows a fine sporting rivalry existed between them. Sarazen never admitted that Jones had anything on him and it can be safely stated that Jones always was confident he could play the little Italian even and then some. There came a period in their play yesterday when they were held up by the twosome ahead, the veteran Chandler Egan, who won the National Amateur back in 1904, and Leland Hamman. Jones and Sarazen sat down on a bench near the tee. And what did these old rivals talk about? Did they talk about golf at all? They did not. Jones had something to say about Egan being a pear farmer in Oregon . . . ‘ Has a lot of trouble getting rid of his fruit, too." He added . . . “Trouble!” scoffed Sarazen. “He ought to try to raise cows like I do, then he’d know what trouble is.”

INDIANAPOLIS, SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1935

Picard, turned 29 last month, started his third round today with a margin of four strokes over his nearest adversary. He broke his own course record of 69 in scoring a 67 in the opening round and in the second test of the tricky national course was forced to content himself with a mere 68. These two scores which gave him an aggregate of 135 turned the Augusta event into something approaching a one-man show. cflin Dutra Among Leaders Closest in pursuit as the cream of American golf started today’s third round were Gene Sarazen, still the betting favorite, and Ray Mangrum, youngster from Los Angeles, each of whom had 139, and Olin Dutra, National Open champion from Los Angeles, and Jimmy Hines, of New York, with 140's. Craig Wood, tall blond star from Deal, N. J., was within easy striking distance with 141. Three others also were definitely considered in the running —Willie Goggin of San Fracisco, Paul Runyan of White Plains, N. Y., and Walter Hagen, each with 142. The big disappointment but not the big surprise was the showing made by Bobby Jones. Although the greatest player that ever lived was given no real chance to win the tourney which marks his second competitive test in two years, he was the big favorite of the Georgians who flock the Augusta national course by the hundreds. Jones has lost none of his popularity despite the scoring which ha? placed him at 146, eleven strokes behind the leader. Hagen Is Threat After 69 As far as Bobby Jones is concerned, all that remains to he decided is how far from the winner he will finish. He put on a great scoring burst going out yesterday, but lost his grip on the way in. One of today’s most closely watched players was Hagen, who yesterday proved he’s still a threat when he scored 69, second best of the second round. Third-round play will be completed today and the final of the .four rounds will be played Sunday.

Pin Gossip

BY BERNARD HARMON Just when it looked as if Indianapolis bowlers were observing “No 700 week,’’ Clarence Baker of the PreSt-O-Lite League cut loose at the Central Alleys and scattered the sticks to the tune of a 703, thereby becoming the week’s best bowler. Down at the Fountain Square, the same boys who climaxed last week’s big scoring sessions with some poor exhibitions reversed matters last night when they compiled a floor average that was just a fraction short of 983. Baker stole the show when he knitted games of 213, 234 and 256 to reach his initial 700 of the season. Baker was far out in front of all other individuals of the Prest-O-Lite loop, no others touching 600 during the evening’s play. The Maintenance and Engineer teams won three games each from the Generators and Assembly, while the Office took two from the Machine Shop. Don McNew neared the 700 mark during the Fountain Square session, games of 211, 203 and 276 netting him a 690. His scoring spree occured during the Coca-Cola-Weber Milk series, which was one of the outstanding battles of the season in the South Side loop. The Milk boys slipped over a victory in the opener by a single pin margin, and, after dropping the centerpiece, whacked out a 1098 to win the edge. The Cokes, in winning their lone game, uncorked a 1097 count that boosted them to a 3066 total for the three games. The Weberites, aided by their garrison finish, reached a 3034 series total. Dick Nordholt, with 632, and Roy Haislup, with 614, joined McNew in making it a big night for the winners, while Ed Stevenson, at 677; Phil Bisesi, with 615, and Joe Danna, with 607, kept the losers in the running. Cook’s Goldblume, through the aid of Larry Fox’s 671, Jess Pritchett’s 668 and Ed Striebeck’s 653, topped the team scoring when they reached 3075 on games of 1074, 924 and 1077. They ma'de a clean sweep of their series with the Indianapolis Towel Supply team, which had Arch Heiss with a 602 as its lone honor shooter. The Falls City Hi-Brus took a triple lacing from Polar Ice & Fuels, which also topped 3000 when it belted the maples for games of 1041, 1097 and 915. Thad Tedrowe, with 640, Pug Seyfried with 620 and Red Mounts with 619, were responsible for the Polar’s brilliant showing. Bug Argus with a 641, paced the Brus. who showed best In their middle game when they hit a 1004. With Paul Stemm at 636 and Louie Moehler at 613, the D-X Gas team took two wins over the Fox Jail House. Frank Fox, with 632, and Bert Bruder, with 619, were the outstanding scorers of the losers. RESERVES LEASE PARK The Indianapolis Reserves baseball club has leased baseball park in Greensburg and will play its home games there this season, according to Manager A. E. Monroe. The Reserves plan to install lights over the Greensburg diamond and play several night games.

Indiana Track Team in Win at St. Louis Meet

Hoosiers Capture Six of Seven Individual Events and Two Relay Races; Owens Ties Record. By United Press ST. LOUIS, April 6.—Track experts today wondered if Glenn Cunningham has begun to feel the strain of his recent frequent appearances.

Five thousand fans at the St. Louis Relays last night watched him run a 1000 yard match race with Elton Brown, junior half-mile champ, barely winning in the slow time of 2:24.4. Recently in New York Cunningham romped the same distance in the world record time of 2:10.1. Jesse Owens, Ohio State, added to his reputation when he tied the world’s record of :05.2 for the 50yard dash. Owens defeated his rival from lowa University, Jimmy Owen, by inches. Ed Hall, former Kansas University star, was third. The team title was annexed by Indiana University, the Hoosiers winning six of seven individual events and two of the three relay races. Carbondale Teachers College of Illinois was second. Don Lash of Indiana furnished the biggest thrill as he raced home in the two-mile run after twice lapping the field. His time was 9:43.9. won by> the Hoosiers was the 50The only individual event not yard low hurdles. Ed Waite, Washington University, St. L->uis, was first with his teammate, Bob Earhardt, second, and Euegene Payton of Carbondale third.

Adolf Kiefer Named on American Swim Team Chicago Youth Sets New World Record and Breaks Other Marks in A. A. U. National Meet. * BY LAWTON CARVER United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 6. —Three former swimming champions were stranded today without titles and young Adolph Kiefer, 16-year-old Chicago school boy who breaks a record every time he falls overboard, held a new world mark as the A. A. U. national championships entered the third

day of competition. Kiefer, son of a former German army instructor, clinched a place on the American team to be selected for an invasion of Japan by winning the 150-yard backstroke in 1:36.1. He clipped .8 of a second from the world standard set by Albert Vande Weghe of Newark, N. J., at Columbus, 0., a year ago today. Vande Weghe was among his victims, back in third place and split from the new champion by Dan Zehr, Northwestern University freshman from Ft. Wayne, Ind. Zehr also broke the record by .6. Peter Pick, New York A. C. successor to Johnny Weismuller as the 100-meter record holder, won the 100-yard free style in :52.6 and took the championship held by Walter Spence of New York’s three swimming Spences. , The dethroned champion virtually gave away the title. After two false starts, he spotted the field a full length lead and fouled a lane rope, yet was beaten by less than two feet. Charles Flachman, Chicago, was third. The 300-yard niedley brought the swimming Spences’ rivalry down to man-to-man competition, with Leonard whipping his brother Wallace and Tom Haynie of Detroit in 3:37.5. The low board fancy dive ended in the downfall of tlie third champion—Dick Degener of Detroit, who lost to Elbert Root of Miami, 134.32 points to 134.16. SIMMONS BLASTS HOME RUN By United Press FT.

Tribe Contemplates Moving Training Base; Heavy Rain Again Descends on Mayfield Owner*Norman Perry Arrives at Camp and Agrees With Manager Killefer That Team Needs Chance to • Practice; Opening Date Here Changed. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor MAYFIELD. Ky., April 6.—A downpour of rain in Mayfield yesterday starting early in the morning and continuing all day not only flooded the spring training park of the Indianapolis ball club, but it led to a conference of club officials today at which a suggestion was made that the team pull stakes and go elsewhere to finish preparation for the opening of the American Association in Columbus, 0., on April 16.

Norman A. Perry, owner of the Indians, is in camp and he agreed with Manager Red Killefer that quick action will be necessary if the Indians are going to round into shape for regular play. It’s possible, therefore, that a move will be made in the event the clouds continue to submerge western Kentucky. It is surmised that the Indians will go to Evansville, Terre Haute or Indianapolis if a transfer occurs. The Indians were rained out of a game with the House of David nine here yesterday and were unable to do any thing except drill in doors at the Legion gym. Games are scheduled here today and tomorrow with Nashville—and the week-end doubtlessly will decide next week’s scene of operations. Exhibition tilts carded here with Toledo on April 12 and 13 will be transferred to Evansville or Terre Haute, according to the new arrangements, unless the weather takes an early change for the better. Sharp Is “Sunshine” Lad The game at Nashville on Thursday convinced the Hoosier pastimers that they are getting too far behind in batting practice and they are beginning to worry about the handicap thfct will face them when their performances go into the official records. Pitcher Jimmy (Freckles- Sharp is the hero of the rookies in camp. He saw his first experience against leaguers at Nashville Thursday when he pitched one inning—the eighth. The lad struck out two of the batters to face him and Johnny Stoneham took care of the other by making a dandy catch in right field Sharp just recently reached his eighteenth birthday. He is a southpaw and has all of the eccentricities of left-handers. He had the bad luck the other day of having a front tooth knocked out when a ball took a bad hop and struck him in the face. The club will pay the bill for a false molar, but Freckles isn’t worrying about it. He is rather proud of the missing member. Sharp will be a crowd pleaser if he makes good. He is a “red head” and a natural clown, with a windup that makes a hit with the customers. The lad has all of the ear marks of a future great. Babe Lawrie, the Indianapolis lad trying out for an infield berth, is wearing smoked glasses. A cold settled in his eyes. Or perhaps its sinus trouble. We don’t know. Anything can happen when it rains night and day. Home Season Opens April 23 The opening night game in Indianapolis probably will be with Kansas City on May 17. The official home opener will be against Columbus on April 23 and not April 22, as carried by the official schedule. Monday, April 22, has been made an open date by agreement with Columbus. The Indians play a doubleheader in Toledo • on Sunday, April 21. Outfielder John Cooney has recovered from a cold and is back in training. No, the Indians do not sleep all day despite the rainy weather. They are called at 8 a. m. On the trip to Nashville Thursday they were bounced out at 6:30. Manager Killefer keeps close watch on his youngsters fn camp and always is ready to advise or to give a willing ear. He has three of his own out in California. The Tribe rookies haven’t a chance to stray if they listen to the “old man.” One carload of players returning from Nashville forgot for an instant about a railroad crossing and barely escaped crashing into a freight train. The veteran Riggs Stephenson didn’t forget, though, and his strong hands grasped the emergency brake just in time and nearly tore out the floor board. It was fortunate that Riggs was seated up front. Change of Moon Fails f Nathan Yates, who is Graves County coroner as well as reporter for the local daily messenger, weighs 395 pounds. He was appointed a Kentucky Colonel this week and now wants to claim the dreadnaught weight championship of all Kentucky Colonels. He is already recognized as the champion eater of western Kentucky. The big argument in Mayfield barber shops is whether or not western Kentucky is having “usual” spring weather or “unusual.” A new moon was supposed to change conditions, but its influence worked only one day. Maybe the man in the moon is in on the joke, too. The consensus seems to be that after the Indians leave Mayfield everything will be lovely. Dale Miller, Tribe road secretary, disapeared from camp and it was guessed that he was on a scouting expedition. Later it was learned that he went to Paduca to have a “corn” treated.* The mint juleps are mighty appetizing in good old Paducah. Manager Killefer said today that he believed it best tn cut down on calisthenics in camp. He is looking for a swimming instructor. He threw fright into his rookies during a clubhouse talk by asking how many of the lads knew how to handle oars.

Cage Coaches to Recommend Three Changes in Rules Center Zoning to Be Used With Tip-Off. By United Press CHICAGO, April 6.—The National Association of Basketball Coaches today will recommend three rule changes to the rules committee meeting in New York. Suggestions of the coaches generally are accepted by the committee. The association decided, by a narrow margin of votes, not to recommend abolition of the center Jump. The rule changes approved were: 1. Clarification of the blocking rule to encourage uniform officiating. 2. Anew rule prohibiting an offensive player from remaining in the free throw lane between the free throw line and the goal line more than three seconds, except in pursuit of a loose ball. 3. Creation of a restraining circle, eight feet in radius, around the center circle, which no player except the centers may enter until the ball is tapped. A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg of Northwestern was elected president of the association. Dr. H. C. Carlson of Pittsburgh was named first vice President; E. A. Kelleher, Fordham, second vice president; George B. Edwards, Missouri, third vice president, and W. S. Chandler, Marquette, secretary-treasurer. Dr. Forest Allen of Kansas was selected to coach teams which will demonstrate basketball at the next Olympic games. Harry Wills Has Praise for Louis After Seeing Negro Boxer Workout. By United Press CHICAGO, April 6.—Harry Wills, the Black Menace who so seriously embarrassed Jack Dempsey in the days of his heavyweight boxing reign, sat at a ringside seat in a loop gymnasium yesterday and got his first glimpse of Joe Louis, newest champion of his race. He stared, fascinated, as the Detroit youth punched a sparring partner around the ring at will with 10-inch sleep makers. His mouth broadened to a full grin and his hands waved. “ ’At boy has what it takes,” Wills asserted. “He's just a natural born boxer and he's going places. He’ll take Camera and a lot more men before he’s through." Wills himself once was accounted by many authorities as the only fighter who had a chance with Dempsey during his championship days. Dempsey never met him. Wills weighs 245 pounds now, 20 pounds more than when he conquered Floyd Johnson, Charley Weinert and Bill Tate. He owns considerable real estate in New York. UNITED BRETHREN NET TOURNEY ENDS TODAY The field of contenders for the United Brethren Sunday School basketball championship was reduced to eight teams in games at the Indiana Central College gym yesterday, with the defending champion, Decatur, 111., leading the way into today’s action.
