FRESH PAY DIRT FOR YANKEES

BLUES RATE GOOD INVESTMENT

KANSAS CITY has gold mine possibilities in baseball, and it’s up to the New York Yankees’ chain system to develop the bonanza. . . . The Yankees are in the saddle there as a result of the purchase of franchise, player contracts and real estate, and Col. Jake Ruppert’s bankroll is sure to build a winning team with the passing of time. . . . Kansas City fans turn out in a big way when their club is in the flag running, and the records prove it. On Aug. 28, 1927, more than 28,000 pennant-hungry rooters poured through the gates at Muehlebach Field to establish the American Association record for single-day

attendance.

. The attraction was a Sunday afternoon

doubleheader when the Blues were in the thick of the championship race. . .. Toledo won the flag that season, however, and Kansas City finished in a tie with Milwaukee for

second.

UEHLEBACH FIELD, a spacious structure, was constructed in 1922 at a cost of $410,000, and the Yankees bought the real estate for a sum reported to be $210,000. . . . It is said $75,000 was paid for the franchise and player contracts. . . . Ill health influenced John Kling in making the sale. . . . His condition is such that he has not attended a game this season, and physicians advised the catcher of the old Chicago Cubs to retire from the business burden of the national pastime.

windward. Endeavour came about onto a port tack at 1:15, and was then only slightly ahead of Ranger on the true course for the first buoy. Ranger which had gone onto a starboard tack soon after the start came back to the port hitch at 11:23. Endeavor, also on a port tack, was slightly ahead and in the windward berth.

Ranger Goes into Lead

11:35 a. m. (Indianapolis Time), 55 minutes after the race started, Ranger, heading more nearly into the wind, was sailing faster than Endeavour and appeared to be closing the margin between the sloops. At that time Ranger was “walking through Endeavour’s lee” which is to say that the American boat was moving through the wake of her rival. Endeavour was sent on a starboard tack at 11:36. At 11:40 she was put back onto the port hitch. Apparently Sopwith wanted to work more to windward. The sioops were now moving at approximately the same speed, and it was difficult to say which was ahead. At 11:45, however, Ranger definitely had taken the lead. She was then approximately half-way down the first leg of the triangle. Ranger steadily increased her advantage and at 11:55 a. m. was approximately one-eighth of a mile ahead. At 12:10 p. m. Ranger still was leading by approximately oneeighth of a mile. Both sloops were moving evenly on port tacks. The 10-mile mark was indistinguishable because of the fog but it was believed to be appppximately one mile from Ranger's current position. The wind was freshening ever so slightly and was now estimated at eight miles. The mark became visible off

the Rocking ‘Chair Admirals;

Hears Sopwith May ‘Retire’ as British Heavies Do

By JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer NEWPORT, R. I, Aug. 2.—Tuning in on the chit chat of the rocking chair fleet as Ranger and Endeavour II come up for round two of the international boat race off this port today. “How did that rumor ever start that T. O. M. Sopwith was going to pull out of the race?” “It may still be a good idea.” “Why, that was the most ridiculous thing I ever heard of. Here's a man who puts close to a million bucks into a boat, works all summer with it and just because he is beaten the first time out, he is going to pick up his marbles and go home. Say, he'd be the laughing stock of the world.”

“Well, you know how the British prize fighters are. When they take a sock on the beezer they go to their corner and announce they have ‘retired.’ Beckett and Wells and Scott did it all the time. And there was that British miler in the Olympics last year. Woderson was his name. Or something like that. When he saw he was beaten coming down the stretch he just quit running. I think that makes sense, too. What's the good in trying when you know you are whipped?”

Lucky to Get Back

“But how can you say Sopwith is whipped? One race doesn’t prove it. As a matter of fact if he had had any luck in the first race he might have won. Everybody is kidding him because he went a mile out of his way on the run home. He was so far behind at the time he had to gamble. He went off the course trying to find stronger winds. That was his only hope. As it turned out he was unlucky; he didn’t find any.” “If you ask me he was lucky to find his way back home. I thought he was headed for Miami, or maybe he had lost his bearings.” “yea, and there may be some truth in that last crack. They tell me his navigator had the course charted wrong, that Sopwith wasn’t looking for fresh winds, or whatever vou call 'em, and that he was just following the blue print as it was presented to him by his navigator.’ “That's probably a lot of bilge water, too. Even if the course had been charted wrong all he had to do was to follow Harold Vanderbilt's tub, back, wasn't it? He must have

known that Vanderbilt wasn't heading in the wrong direction. “Yea, that's all he had to do— follow Vanderbilt, and if you ask me that's what he's going to do all week.” “I wouldn't be so sure about that. Sopwith’s boat can’t be as bad as it looked Saturday. And the mistakes he made were gambling mistakes born out of desperation. He's a better skipper than he was three years ago and there's nothing wrong with his crew. His men handled the gear and sails expertly. Just

Snead Takes St. Paul Open

Finishes Five Under Par, Guldahl Is Sixth.

By United Press ST. PAUL. Minn., Aug. 2--Sam Snead, “freshman” of the 1937 golf year, pocketed the $1200 first place prize of the $5000 St. Paul open today. Snead clipped two from par to finish yesterday's 36-hole test with 142, for a T2-hole total of 283, five under par. Ralph Guldahl, who nosed the White Sulphur Springs ace out in the U. S. open, finished in a sixway tie for sixth place. Harry Cooper, Chicago, who has won the St. Paul open three times, finished with a 15th-place 290. Willie Goggin, San Bruno, Cal, was runnerup to Snead with a 143-141-284. He took $750. Sharing third-place money with 285s were Pat Sawyer, Minneapolis, Johnny Revolta, Chicago, and K. C. Sanowski, Winnipeg, Manitoba. Tied with Guldahl for sixth with 288s were Dutch Harrison, Stuttgart, Ark.; Ben Hogan, Ft. Worth, Tex.; Ray Mangrum, Dayton, O.; Alvin Krueger, Beloit, Wis, and Mike Murra, Wichita, Kan. Lawson Little, Presidio, Cal, who led at the end of the first two rounds with 140, carded a 149 yesterday, to tie with Horton Smith, Chicago, and Johnny Bulla, Lisle, Ill, for 12th place. Leading amateur was Dick Price, Wichita, Kan., 202.

as well as Vanderbilt's, I thought.” “Well, all I know is what the sailors around here tell me and they still insist Sopwith is a Palooka back of the wheel. And if this is so Vanderbilt will make it four for four. He showed Saturday he’s got a fast boat and everybody knows he’s a great skipper. He beat Sopwith in 1934 with a slow boat. Now that he's got a fast boat how can he miss?” “And it may be different today. They're sailing a triangular course and not one of those up and down things. That will call for tricky handling of the boat and you saw how Sopwith's crew bounced the British boat around Saturday when they were zig-zagging. No crew could have done better.”

British Crew Faster

“That's right. Every time Sopwith made a move Vanderbilt had to follow—tacking they call it, and we clocked the moves and the British crew was faster by seconds every

time. I wouldn't count Sopwith out right now.” “Say, I was talking with Starling Burgess—he’s the guy that designed Vanderbilt's boat—and he told me the boat was built with particular stress on just this kind of tricky sailing. I asked him if he thought the Ranger would do as well on a triangular run as it had on the windward-leeward run Saturday, and the ‘old guy was positively optimistic. He said it would do even better. Except he said, ‘she’ You aren’t supposed to call a yacht ‘it,’ you know.” “Well, all I hope is that they get the thing over with quick. I want to get back and see that Tommy Farr in training.

don't make these international fights as complicated as these intere national yacht races.

Why All the Mystery ‘os

“Personally, I think these yachte ing guys deliberately make their sport mysterious. I mean all these queer terms they use. Genoa Jibs, parachute spinnakers and the like. Why can’t they number the sails? Call ’em the No. 1 sail, the No. 2 sail and so on. Wouldn't that be just as good?” “It probably would, but what would happen to all the yachting experts? They're pretty nice fellows once you get em away from Newport or Larchmont. I saw one of 'em smile the other day. Right in the middle of the race, too.” “That reminds me. You know Tony Blotz, don’t you? He's the guy who made a lot of dough out of scrap iron. Well, Tony's got himself a yacht and he’s up here for the races, putting on the fido. He took me on his scow yesterday. It was hot up on deck and when I suggested we go down stairs he gave me a look that would have chilled a forest fire. It seems 1 made a very grave social error. I should have said ‘let's go below.” ‘Aint that rich!’”
