THURSDAY LY 22,
Goes to F inal With Miss Ellis By 2- 1 Victory
South Bend Girl Had Been Favored to Dethrone LongTime Champion.
By United Press HAMMOND, Ind. July 22.—Elizabeth Dunn, seven times state wom- | en's golf champion and present titleholder, today scored a stunning victory over blond Dorothy Gustafson of South Bend, whose play un- | til this morning had made her the | favorite in the State tournament a? the Woodmar Country Club. Tomorrow Miss Dunn will seek her eighth title-and fifth in a row against Dorothy Ellis, also of Indianapolis, who entered the final round with an expected triumph over Mrs. T. J. Orr of Hammond, Woodmar Club champion, 3 and 2. The touch which Miss Gustafson had for equalling or breaking par was acquired today by Miss Dunn, | who started out with a rush to grab | the first four holes in even par. Miss Gustafson was having trouble with | her approaches, but managed to} halve the next three holes, win the | eighth, halve the ninth and be three down at the turn. | Miss Gustafson recovered slightly | at the 10th by holing a long putt | for a birdie four. The next three | holes were halved, but Miss Dunn | took the 14th with a four when Miss Gustafson's second shot found a | trap. |
Match Ends on 17th
Miss Gustafson, fighting desper- | ately to narrow Miss Dunn's lead, snared a birdie on the 15th to be | two down, They halved the short! 16th with threes each and when Miss Dunn also succeeded in halv- | ing the 17th, the match was over, |

Until she started her match today, Miss Gustafson had played three consecutive rounds in eight strokes under par, including a 76 to qualify and a 75 to win the quarterfinal match The match between Miss and Mrs. Orr was hard fought Mrs. Orr fighting against superior | odds. Both scored 41, one over par, for the first nine, and finished all square. Mrs. Orr took the lead on the 10th but lost it immediately on the 11th when she pushed her next shot into the Little Calumet River. Miss Ellis then seized the next two holes in par, halved the 14th and 15th, exploded from a trap and sank a 10-foot putt on the 16th for | the hole and match when Mrs. Orr | who also was trapped, failed io get | out SueeessTully.

There is no place in the majors for a dead arm and the more reticent of the Deans recently was waived out of the industry. The Schoolboy's Plight
The case of Mr. Schoolboy's throwing weapon is more. than mystifying and the examining authorities haven't been able to determine whether it has gone to its celestial reward or is merely sleeping. The last time the Schoolboy appeared in the box he did not last long enough to retire two batters. Possibly the fact that the Schoolboy was facing the Yankees should be taken into consideration. The | way the Yankees are murdering pitchers in the West the Schoolboy | may have done better than the bare | details would seem to suggest. A | pitcher facing the Yankees these days considers himself lucky if he! escapes with his life. Still, the Yankees used to be the one team the Schoolboy could al- | ways whip. Because of this un- | usual gift the Detroit Tigers were | able to win two league champion- | ships. The Schoolboy's arm hasn't | been responsive ali year. The ques- | tion now is: Has it gone altogether? |

Budge & Co. Await Draw
U. S. Heavy | Favorite to Capture Cup.
By United Press LONDON, July 22.—Regardless of how the opponents fall in tomorrow's Davis Cup draw, the United States will start the challenge round a 1-5 favorite to return the historic tennis trophy to home shores for
the first time since the French lifted it in 1927. The bookmakers concede England but one victory, and generally expect the American team to recapture the cup by a 4-1 margin. The one loss the United States is expected to sustain will be when Henry Wilfrey (Bunny) Austin tackles the No. 2 singles player, whether it be Bryan Grant of Atianta or Frankie Parker of Spring Lake, N. J. Budge is rated certain to win both his singles encounters, and with Mako, hardly can lose the one doubles match against C. R. D. Tuckey and F. HL D. Wilde. And either Grant or Parker will go in against Charley Hare, a youngster with no international experience, as favorite.
Defends Title
Robert H. Orbison (above), twotime winner of the Indianapolis Athletic Club singles tennis tournament is scheduled to meet Ralph B. Roberts in the second round of play in this year's meet tomorrow night. The following have advanced to the third round: F. S. Dowling, Al Campbell, R. W. Reney, G. B. Supple, R. E. Woodard, Francis Brosnan, George Newton, W. R. Borinstein, K. D. Brosnan, Glen Brenner and Jim Birr.
Guldahl Tries Chicago Links
None of Classy Field Has
Broken Par So Far.
By United Press CHICAGO, July 22. —U. S. Open Champion Ralph Guldahl led his Ryder Cup teammates over the long, heart-breaking tournament
course at Medinah Country Club today to find out why none of he entries in the $10,000 Chicago Open have been able to break var, Only two golfers so far have salvaged par 71s over the championship course, indicating the field of 208 professionals and 215 amateurs may be jammed so close together the winner of the $3000 first prize won't be known until the last stray is home about sundown Sunday night. First rounds will be played by the entire field tomorrow and Saturday. On Sunday, the 50 lowest scoring professionals and 25 low amateurs will travel the final 36 holes for the title. Ky Laffoon, bronzed Chicagoan, turned in one of the 71s in practice and immediately was dropped to 16 to 1 in the betting. Matt Mat-
teson, another Chicago professions al, scored the second even par round yesterday.
Although such favorites as Harry Cooper, Tommy Armour and Jimmy Hines" have played course No. 3, none would give out his figures. | Jimmy Thomson, another favorite because of his matchless distance off the tees, went one over par on course No. 1 and admitted at the finish he was highly pleased. If Guldahl shows no ill effects of his layoff since the final rounds of the British Open, he will be ranked
virtually cofavorite with Cooper.
Freddie Steele Wins By Technical K. O.
WASHINGTON, July 22.—~Middleweight Champion Freddie Steele of Tacoma had new evidence of his jolting punch today in Wash ington’s Charles (Hobo) Williams, whom he defeated by a technical knockout in the eighth round of their 10-round nontitle bout. Worn down by a battering body attack, Williams went down for the count of three and a moment later for eight before the fight was stopped. Steele floored Hobo once in the first and then won every round, although the contender landed some solid punches. The champ weighed in for last night's fight in Griffith Stadium at 161'3 “pounds, Hobo a quarter pound more.
