DEFENDING CHAMPION RATED 100-TO-l SHOT IN OPEN

Bookmaker Not Impressed by Parks’ Title, Joe Finds; Odds Small on 4 Veterans Smith, Picard, Sarazen and Cooper Considered 12-1 Chances; Revolta, Shute and Runyan Also Among Favorites in National Meet. BY JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer / NEW YORK, May 13.—Mr. Tom Watterson of the old Louisville Wattcrsons, himself an eminent author, has just favored me with his latest book. It is entitled "Prices on the 1936 Open Golf Championship.” It is a moving, human document accenting the foibles of fate, the ups and downs of mankind and the horrors of life among the divots. Author Watterson's latest tome does not depart from the style which has characterized his literary work from the beginning. It is replete with names and figures—names of golfers and figures which in the author's opinion logically rate their chances to win the coming championship. It is, in short, a book of odds.

If you are to believe the book the championship lies among four golfers, namely, Horton Smith, Her.ry Picard, Gene Sarazen and Harry Cooper. These four are listed at

12 to 1 against, and arc the shortest priced players in the field. Johnny Revolta is next at 15 to 1, sols lowed by Denny Shute and Paul Runyan at 18 to 1. Grouped at 20 to 1 are Jimmy Thomson, O 1 in D u t r a, Craig Wood and Ray Mangrum. Bobby Cruickahank is 25 to 1. The veteran

Williams

Hagen is 30 to 1, so are Ky Laffoon and Billy Burke. Tommy Armour is 40 to 1, likewise Ted Turner, Torchy Toda, the Japanese ace, Whiffy Cox and Johnny Goodrqan, the amateur. From here out the prices go to 300 to 1 against such players as Pete O’Hara, Maurice Walsh and Robert Barnett. I forgot to mention the price against young Sam Parks of Pittsburgh, the defending champion, is 100 to 1. This unquestionably is the most generous price that has ever been laid against a defending champion in anybody's country, or in anybody’s sport. It gives you a faint idea how the bookmaker feels about the champion's game. u tt tt I seem to recall that the price against Mr. Parks winning at Oakmont a year ago was also 100 to 1 and he won anyway. Apparently the bookmaker still believes he did it with mirrors, or the result was a typographical error. At any rate, Mr. Parks is one champion who, in the figures, isn’t conceded an Ethiopian chance to repeat. And the chances are when the final returns ai'e in the figures will have been justified. Mr. Parks won his championship over a course with tricky greens that paid off on luck rather than skill. It couldn't have been otherwise because too many really fine golfers shooting fine golf collapsed facing the test. As further proof, Mr. rarks playing the full winter circuit, picked up just $6.75 in prize moneys. Admitting all this, the price against a champion repeating in the Open, whether he be a Parks or a Sarazen, is about 25 to 1 at the shortest. And now that Bob Jones is no longer an active competitor the price should be closer to 50 to 1. He was the last to put two of these together, in 1929 and 1930, and the first to do it since Johnny McDermott in 1911 and 1912. Thus the odds in this sense are not so unflattering to Mr. Parks’ game as it might seem. tt tt a TT develops, too, that Mr. Parks is not much more slightly esteemed in the book than MacDonald Smith who is listed at 80 to 1 despite the fact he is accepted as one of the best shot makers in golf. The feeling about Smith now T is that he Just can’t win a championship; that whenever it looks as if he might something happens—like the rainstorm at Pittsburgh a year ago, for example. Author Watterson did not make his prices official until all the scores were in from the qualifying tests yesterday, but in his preliminary book he had tentative odds figured for all the possible competitors. Some of the failed to qualify. A conspicuous failure was Lawson Little and author Watterson had decided to make him one of the short-priced entries, at 20 to 1. As the crossword puzzle expert said, fumbling around for a four-letter word, "that's golf for you.” tt a \ RECENTLY reformed amateur, Little was making his first attempt to qualify for the professional classic. He had won four major amateur championships in a row, the American twice and the British twice. He had been unbeaten in 31 consecutive matches on both sides of the Atlantic. He had demonstrated by the class and consistency of his game he was head and shoulders above all the amateurs in the .world. And yet playing over what was only a moderately stiff course the broad-shouldered Californian who had so thoroughly dominated the amateurs wasn't able to score well enough even to draw a starting position with the professionals.

BACK IN LEAGUE By United Press ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 13. Rogers Hornsby believed today that his floundering St. Louis Browns, after 13 consecutive false starts, have found themselves. Commenting on the victory of A1 Thomas and the Brownies over the New York Yankees yesterday, Hornsby said, "That game put us back in the league. You'll see some real baseball out there from now on.”

Shaw Arrives With New Car ‘Vacuum Sweeper’ Radiator Introduced by 1935 Race Runner-Up. (Continued From Page Eighteen) trials. He is not concerned with the new gasoline restriction or the rigid inspections of the officials. There is to be little work performed on the machine between now and race time. Always ranked as one of the highest contenders for annual Memorial Day prizes, the shrewd Hoosier ifllot, who now makes his home in California, becomes one of the favorites in the 1936 speed marathon. Much like Lou Moore, who has knocked repeatedly at top success, Shaw appropriately has drawn down the caption—"often a bride's maid, never a bride.” Last year, in Gil Pirrung’s Special, he dogged the trail of Kelly Petillo for miles and finished 40 seconds behind the California Italian. In 1934 he had trouble with his car and acted as relief driver for Lou Moore’s charger which finished third. The previous year he roared into second place behind Lou Meyer. As the drivers admitted at the track yesterday, “Wilbur's about due.” Among fire first three for three straight years. Shaw also feels that it is his turn to collect the largest share of the prize melon, and is confident that his car surpasses anything that ever entered a 500-mile race. Bill Cummings Arrives Speedway City is colonizing rapidly. Os the 49 cars entered this year, 37 are on the scene. Roscoe Dunning has withdrawn his entry. Phil (Red) Shafer arrived yesterday with his two shiny four-cylin-der cars. . George Barringer of Wichita Falls, Tex., who won at Columbus, Ind., last Sunday, is to pilot one of them. Wild Bill Cummings, local daredevil, who paced the field in 1934 and ended in third position last season arrived in town last night, and many other favorites are converging at Gasoline Alley this week. Mauri Rose. Chet Gardner, Ken Fowler and Bob Sail returned from Atlanta, Ga., where Rose won the 50-mile race last Sunday. Billy Devore, young newcomer who was to make his first attempt in a 500-mile classic this year, still is in St. Joseph's Hospital in Atlanta where he is recovering from a spill in the race at the Lakewood track. Word received by Babe Stapp yesterday stated that he suffered a fractured collar bohe, two broken vertebrae and a crushed shoulder. Either George Bailey, who drove •one of the Fords last year, or Freddie Winnai, a consistent moneywinner. is expected to replace Devore in Stapp’s entry. Johnny Seymour, another Ford pilot in 1935, has been signed to crawl behind the wheel cf Shorty Cantlon's speedster. Many of the pilots are expected to take to the track early Saturday in an attempt to qualify before dashing to Philadelphia to compete in the Langhorne race. PETERSBURG LOSES Times Special PETERSBURG, Ind., May 13. Petersburg High School lost a dual track meet to Boonville high School, 61 to 54, here yesterday afternoon.

Gussie Sonnenberg can’t take it in the legs, see. The Boston belter is plenty ready to give up the ship, and the match, too, when his underpinnage is attacked. At least, that’s the way it looked when he lost a scuffle to Blacx Secret, the camouflaged husky who weighs, 221 plus the hood over his head, in the main go at the Armory last night.

the burden since the rest of the pi’ ?hing staff is inexperienced. Blackaby, the ace, has faltered in recent games and Corbett may draw the major assignments du.’ing the three-day schedule. The Bulldog nine dropped a 12-to-10 slugfest to the Crimson at Bloomington in the first encounter. Babe Hosier is expected to face the local collegians. The De Pauw clash is the first of a two-game series.

Gus—he weighs 210 now—flyingmared into the secret operator’s tummy to get a head start with the first fall in 14 minutes. But in the second heat the masked gent accidently discovered Sonnie didn’t like to have his legs tampered with, so of course he went right to work and applied a ieglock that had the Bostonian screaming uncle in very short order. Nine minutes was the time. It was the same thing in the rubber fall. After missing fire several times, the Secret connected on Gussie’s legs with that lock-up and the flying tackier not only whimpered uncle but tossed in a few aunts and cousins for good measure. The semi-windup caused the most excitement in the Armory arena since the time the ring fell in on Man Mountain Dean. George Koverly, starey-eyed 221pound Minnesotan, climbed through the ropes evidently toting a definite grudge against Big Boy Davis, 240, Columbus. Immediately with the bell Koverly started doing everything the book says you shouldn’t do. Referee Buck Buchanan tried to tell him he shouldn’t do them, too, and took a mauling for his trouble. Kicking, slugging, biting, gouging and choking were a few of the misdemeanors introduced by the Northerner. Davis finally bopped the wrestler gone beserk with a terrific forearm smash and pinned him for the fall. Storming to his feet as Davis left the ring, Koverly ripped a brand new shirt to shreds off Buchanan’s back, started after the referee, and many of the crowd of 3000 started after Koverly. He met them at the edge of the ropes, shaking his fists in enraged defiance. No one entered. After several minutes, he stomped out of the ring of his own accord. Inspector Sam Murbarger of the state athletic commission announced today that Koverly is under indefinite suspension in 37 other states as well as Indiana. Otto Kuss. 228, Pine City, Minn., pinned Eddie Newman, 20, New York, in 20 minutes in the opener. Matchmaker Carter of the Hercules A. C. announced that Orville Brown will wrestle here next week.

After all, the local Coffin pro figures, plenty of other contenders will be seeing Baltusrol’s layout for the first time when they hit Springfield, N. J., so the territorial strangeness will be mutual. “They tell me that Baltusrol isn't so long, but that the course is heavily wooded,” says Bill. “In that case I’d like to get over there two or three days before the thing starts June 4 and make a few’ getacquainted rounds.

counts among his souvenirs trophies ! for just about every’ Hoosier honor from schoolboy champion to state Open king was one of 15 Midwesterners who survived a field of 143 in qualifications at Chicago Monday. tt B tt ARRIVING home yesterday along with Johnny Vaughn, Pleasant Run, and Russ Stonehouse, Riverside, who jdidn’t quite make the slope, Bill revealed that he had played the Olympia Fields courses on a previous occasion with somewhat the same success. “Os course. I didn't know whether my 152 would get me in when I finished with about half the field through,” Bill said. “But I sort of had a feeling that it would. “Yes, I had played Olympia Fields before—a few years ago in the Western Open. At that time. I fired 149 and 156 in two 36-hole rounds.” Which, unless my trigonometry fails me, figures out to an average of 152(2, or just one-half stroke—say a backswing—off his card for Monday. That’s consistency, a rare virtue in golf. a a a T>ILL will tell you that the Olympia Fields courses are tough propositions, and he has toured enough fairwayage to qualify as a reliable judge. “We played 18 holes on each of two courses—Nos. 1 and 4,” he explains. “Both are plenty difficult. On No. 4 in the morning the greens were real fast. You had to be careful on switching to No. 1 in the afternoon because those greens were slow. “Yes, I had my troubles. I wound up with a seven on the par 5 fifteenth of the No. 4 layout. Had a discouraging time on No. 18, too. Took a six and it was a par four hole.” But Marse Bill shook loose in the aiternoon and came racing down the stretch with the assurance of a thoroughbred. No less than four birdies are on his card for that final round. ** tt tt SO, if Mr. Heinlein lags on the early trip at Baltusrol, the home folks will be waiting confidently for that stretch drive. But we’re hoping it will be possible for you to get up there a few days early, Bill. Nothing like a good warmup for a fast start, you know! tt it n Mr. Smith—The state junior meet is scheduled for July 27-31, at Bloomington. B tt tt THE handicap committee for the first city public links association tournament at Riverside Sunday has conceived a clever system to be used in allotting stroke allowances to newcomers. Because many entrants have not yet joined municipal clubs, and thus are handicapless, the committee has decided to determine handicaps by scores the players turn in Sunday on a certain number of holes. The holes to be used as gauges will be known only to the committee. In this way, the committee figures every entrant, will have an equal chance at the many handicap prizes. Several iow medal prizes also will be on the block. Regular club handicaps, however, probably will prevail in succeeding tourneys. The entry fee is 50 cents. For preferred starting times call Norm Thompson at Harrison 1244-J.
