At any rate he stands up under a punch very well, which is unusual for a British heavyweight champion. Perhaps the fact that Foord is from South Africa have something to do with this. The gentleman is dismally lacking in experience and finesse. He had several chances to ends the brief bout quickly with a punch but his marksmanship was slovenly. He distinctly is not a finisher, killer, as we know them at home.

of the minor sports, trailing far behind cricket in mass popularity and not to be compared in any sense with soccer -as a box-office lure. The British experts see no future for it. Writing in the Sunday Pictorial, the sports editor comments: “Last week I went to see the United States Olympic team in action againgt White City and have come to the definite conclusion that it is waste of time, energy and money in trying to make English people baseball-minded. “Mind you, I saw the game in

can not convince me that any game which needs professional rooters to ‘hot’ the play up|is go“ing to stand up to the test of us quaint-minded people. And please don’t tell me the Americans go mad over this game. Yes, I know. They have frog races, sit on poles for hours on end and do other equally silly things—and get a kick out of it. ..."” ” 8

professional rooters? As for “hotting” the play, how do you like Mr. Ruth? The -answer is, of|

as silly. {I used to be smugly amused at the tea interludes in cricket. Now that I'm over here it is the only - part of the program that makes sense to me. And I have my _ doubts that cricket as a game would ~ stand up to the test of the noisy minded people back in the States. 2

TACKS UP AS

Seeks Strong Key Players

Big Gridders Sought for Butler Back Field, Tackle Posts.

Football forecasts, the same as history, often repeat. Coach Paul (Tony) Hinkle of Butler University this week mutters an entreaty that reverberates like an echo. from the pre-season lamentations of 1935. “Give me two big tackles and a hard-blocking back, and we'll have a good team,” the Bulldog mentor said a year ago. Coaches Hinkle and Wally Middlesworth gave Butler its second straight Indiana College Conference title. As Hinkle scans the list of returning veterans and recruits, yawning vacancies appear in the same spots as last year. Seven regulars stepped off the squad with diplomas, and although 21 monogram men return, the positions most necessary in a strong-running attack are the weakest. Practice star(s next Tuesday.

Weger Back Again

Big Jake Weger, a 235-pound junior this year, was uncovered and was the bulwark of the line in 1935. Dick Curtis and Bob Brown shared the oposite tackle, but both have graduated. Bill Merrill, a water polo star needing more polish, may plug the vacancy. Reserve strength will have to be found among the sophomores. Charles Broderick, ex-Cathedral lineman, appears the most likely. Probably the hardest gap to fill will be the one vacated by Luke Martin, hard-driving West Virginian. In most respects, Martin's blocking. was the most important factor in the running attack last year, paving the way for Jim Wulle, Inman Blackaby and other scoring stars. “We have more half backs than we can use this year,” Hinkle stated, “put they all play on the left side.” The punch of the full back spot will be provided by two seasoned plungers, Emerson Musgrave, last year’s regular starter, and Inman Blackaby who led the team scoring as a utility performer. In generalship, Butler will be guided by the crafty captain and quarter back, Spero Costas of Canton, Ill. Chuck O'Connor also has experience in running the squad. In the line, ex-Capt. Tuffy Laymon’s center post is open to Clifford Swift, Charles McDaniel and Chuck Brown, all of whom have previous experience,

All Set at Guards

An abundance of guards is available. Ed Trott and Eldon Staller will be playing their third season. Byron Schofield, Matty Crawford and Vincent Masarachia are juniors who were used in games last season. Lack of size is the chief problem on the wings. Eddie O'Connor and Cody Burdette, although light in weight, are exceptional pass snatchers and consistent on offense and defense. They divided the asignments last season with Roscoe Batts, who has completed his eligibility. Joe Macek and John Nackenhorst also were at the flanks: The Bulldogs open against Evansville at the Butler bowl Sept. 26. On the two following Saturday's they invade Cincinnati and Chicago. Following the first three games, Butler plays a state schedule against Manchester, Franklin, Wabash and Valparaiso, and then encounters Western State Teachers of Kalamazoo in the finale. ;

BY . PAUL . BOXELL

OLUMBIA CLUB members have set aside Wednesday, Sept. 16, as the day for selection and coronation of their 1936 club golf champion. They'll go about it in the. customary way, with an 18-hole medal play tournament at Hillcrest Country Club, followed by a ‘prizeawarding banquet after dusk. ‘The tourney will be the club's fourth, final and fanciest of the season. Record competing fields were claimed . on the three p r evious, and, with v a cation time dwindling away, another big turnout for the title test is considered certain. In addition to determining the new champ—or rethroning the old —three extra contests are to feature the day's program. Special prizes will go on the block for driving, “hole-in-one” and putting supremacies. The first two contests are to be held right along with the progress of the tournament, the committee singling out a hole for each of the two matches. Judges will be stationed at each hole to keep an official account of each players’. marksmanship. Putting laurels will be decided on the putting green.

Phil Talbot

® Present protector of the J. T. Macrman trophy, which goes annualiy to the low gross shooter, is Phil Talbot of Bloomington, winner last year. Champions dating back from Talbot include William Martin, 1934;° Leonard Solomon, 1931; George Lance, 1930; Jack Bixler, 1929; V. V. Roby, 1928; and William Lincoln, 1927, 2 E-4 n Among other outstanding champions this year, in addition to the former title-holders, are Sam Simpson, Dr. Paul Hurt, Verne Ray, Cliff Wagoner, Bernie Lehman, W.

Bill did the job so thoroughly his figures bid fair to stand good for some time. He rounded the nine-hole plot twice in 66—33 each trip. Par for the nine is 36. Putting played its usual vital part, with Professor Heinlein totaling 28 strokes on the 18 greens. His card: Par Heinlein

PROMISING AMATEURS

As selected by Neil McIntyre, pro at Highland Golf and Country Club: 2 “For my choice within the state,” says Neil, “I'll take Bill Reed.” Bill Reed’s record would indicate thet Mr. McIntyre did not make his choice with merely intuition as his guide. Starting as Indianapolis schoolboy champion, Bill stepped into the Indianapolis District championship, then the city public links title among. others.. He has participated in the national public links tourney three times.

Bill has yet to achieve the state

amateur championship, and doubtless. that's what Mr. MecIntyre is expecting of him. 2 = |» N the national front, the Highland instructor is picking

Johnny Goodman, Omaha's best, to climb to the top again. Goodman slipped ‘out of the limelight after capturing the National Open in 1933—being. one of only six amateurs ever to collect that honor —but he is springing upward again, and Neil figures he’s on the right track this time. Johnny is playing in the Walker Cup series at Pine Valley today. :
