LOS ANGELES, April 14 (U. P.). —Jack Roper, a 36-year-old prettygood heavyweight who is getting a chance at Joe Louis Monday, abandoned his fancy plan of developing a right-hand punch today.

all the snap of a worn-out elastic, and finally he gave it up. With two days training left. he went back to sharpening up the left, which all concede, really has the Kick. . Practically all the money was on Louis. He hammered sparring partners four rounds yesterday and will do it again today and tomorrow. Roper will do the same, and both will rest up Sunday.

Open Chicago Series Today

CHICAGO. April 14 (U. P) —The home folks get their first look at the 1939 Chicago Cubs teday and from all accounts it's the best offensive team since the break up of the old | murderers’ row 10 years ago. ! Manager Gabby Hartnett already has picked the Cubs to win their second straight National League pennant. “We've got more power.” he beamed. “Those winter deals gave us more batting power without weakening us any defensively. We're a better ball club all around than last years.” The Cubs open a four-day city series against the American League White Sox today. Bill Lee, league's leading pitcher last year, was nominated to face John Rigney of the White Sox. Gabby's present lineup looks little iike last year’s team. He has weeded out Rip Collins at first base. Bill Jurges at shortstop, Frank Demaree in the outfield and Ken O'Dea from the number two catchers spot. He has added Dick Bartell, veteran shortstop, Gus Mancuso, catcher, and Hank Leiber, outfielder, all of whom were obtained from the New York Giants in the largest winter deal of the season. Dizzy Dean, for once, does figure highly plans. “Diz looked great that once he pitched,” Hartnett said. “But he’s got to take it easy. We won't need him until that arm of his is really strong. I he clicks, we're a cinch.”

N addition to Coffin and South Grove, Pleasant Run, Sarah {Shank and Douglas courses will be opened tomorrow. All of them will have flag raising exercises and select foursomes to make the season chase after Old Man Par official. All hut Douglas will hold blind par tournaments tomorrow, and the Douglas tourney will be held Sunday. The winner at each course is to receive a season pass. Since the Riverside course is closed for repairs because of the White River flood prevention project, players on that links can compete for Riverside's free ticket either at Coffin or South Grove,

Two Under Men’s Par

LAYERS at Coffin are to discuss plans for the season at a meeting in the clubhouse at 8 o'clock tonight. Les Smith, pro, and Edward Hearne, greenskeeper, reported that players who already have tried this layout have brought in compliments on the condition of the greens and fairways. The gully that ran through the No. 4 and No. 18 fairways has been filled, which should be good news for people who don’t like to look for lost balls.

This is the shot they worry about — the three-foot putt. If you don't make enough of these your score will go higher than a thermometer in July.

ISS ELIZABETH DUNN, women’s state champion, hasn't forgotten anything about the game over the winter, it is very evident. As an honorary member of the Riverside Club she will compete in one of the official opening day foursomes at South Grove tomorrow. Just to be sure she was still hitting them right she played nine holes at South Grove yesterday and came in two strokes under men's par figures. She had birdies on the!

For this reason, Tommy Vaughn, Pleasant Run pro, took a star left-! hander of that course, Raleigh Bennett, down to Louisville the other day to get measured for some new irons.

Promoter Syd Hulls has offered Baer $50,000 to meet Farr in London —if he gets by Nova. Burman, who won a close decision, over Farr in New York last January, had no excuses but said, “I'd like another go at him.” Farr, whose win was the first since he outpointed Baer here April 15, 1937, said, “I knew I had him after the fourth— and that’s just one step back to a return match with Joe Louis.” Before a crowd of 15,000, Burman used a straight left jab to win the first two rounds, but Farr’s 19-pound weight advantage soon began to wear Red down The United Press score sheet gave Farr six rounds, Burman three and called three even. Farr weighed 205% to Burman’s 186%,
