Sleight of Hand Stuff

That recent invisible knockout scored by Jimmy Adamick is being investigated, probably on the theory

HAT ought to be a most interesting race opening the 30th annual Grand Circuit meeting at North Randall, 0. Saturday, July 2. We refer to the special event in which Greyhound will defend his championship against 11 of the world's fastest trotters. Entered in the competition are Calumet Evelyn, Rosalind and Lee Hanover, to mention only a few. The “Gray Ghost” has been working out at the Fairgrounds track here and has turned in some fast time in the workouts. Sep Palin expects to have his favorite hoss in fine condition for the North Randall free-for-all. Tickets are being sold locally and quite a number of the local followers of the harness racing sport are likely to go to North Randall to see the fun, & 8 & 5 & 8 HE death of Jimmy Fazli is widely mourned here in his home city but nowhere with more genuine grief than among those who were associated with him in The Times-Legion Golden Gloves bouts Jim was a manly little fellow, game to the core. He always gave his best and made and held many friends » - = » . = MONTH'S rest has done little good and a corps of specialists are to A be called in to examine the ailing Dizzy Dean. This adds considerable support to the belief that the former Cardinal hurler is through as a top-flight moundsman It would be pretty sad, of course. if Dizey's fate is to parallel that of his brother, Daffy. and Schoolboy Rowe to mention only two of the modern baseball greats who have fallen afoul of that old devil bursitis and have been sent to the minors Apparently though it would occasion little surprise and by this time owner Phil Wrigley probably is prepared to take it on the chin again We gather as much from the actitide of Charley Grimm who decided to leave his $183000 headache at home while the team started an Eastern jaunt and from pretty definite reports that the Bruin pilot has decided to go after the pennant without depending on the eccentric hurler to start another game this year There ought to be a moral in all this somewhere but at the mont it escapes us. Maybe it simmers down te this: That the magnates to be patient and develop their own talent. Maybe if they are { they will come up every so often with a Bob Feller or a Walter 1nson . = = = = = OME | idea of the depth of Tony Hinkles faith in his new crop of fo rospects may be obtained by glancing over the list of boys Butler lost in vesterday's graduation ceremonies imong the gridders handed their sheepsking were Inmon Blackaby, fullback: William Staleup, fullback: Jim Hause, and Jake Weger, tackles: Clvde Norman, center: Byron Schofield, guard and Joe Macek, end.

‘Walker Cup Team Back; Lauds British

Change in Method of Naming Team Aided Rivals, Ouimet Says.

NEW YORK, June 14 (U, P).— America's Walker Cup golf team returned home today aboard the Aquitania without the cup for the first time in history. The eight men were unanimous in their praise of the British who, with a 7-4 victory at St. Andrews, broke American's strangle-hold on the international trophy. “It was not a question of a letdown in American golf,” said Francis Ouimet, nonplaying captain, of Boston. “It was the fact that the British played with more confidence. British amateurs always were good shotmakers but tn the past they seemed to lack confidence under fire. The reason for their new confidence was the new method of selecting the team. “In the past the team was picked on the basis of performance in one or two tournaments. This time the selection committee picked the 25 best players and put them through a T2-hole test to get the best eight. When they emerged from that test, they had more confidence than they had in the past. Wind and weather had nothing to do with our defeat.” Charley Yates of Atlanta brought with him the British amateur trophy which he won at Troon, Scotland, Yates will stay ‘in New York four or five days and then return to Atlanta where he works in a bank. He said he would continue working there and that he had no definite plans except that he will play in the U. 8S. Amateur Championship mont, Pa. Other team members who returned were: Johnny Goodman, Omaha; Charles Kocsis, Detroit; Johnny Fischer, Cincinnati; Reynolds Smith, Dallas; Ray Billows, Poughkeepsie, and Marvin (Bud) Ward, Olympia. Wash. The other member—Fred Haas Jr. of New Orleans — remained in England and was to sail for home today on the Queen Mary. Yates was met at the pier by a welcoming delegation from Atlanta. This delegation included Charley's brothers, Alan and Dan; James D. Robinson, president of the First National Bank of Atlanta where Charley works; Tom Payne, Atlanta sportsman; George Hamilton, treasurer of the state of Georgia and representative of the Governor; Jim Malone, chairman of Atlanta's wel-come-home committee, and several Atlanta newspapermen.
