Armour and Dutra Take Early Lead in National Open Play’
By HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Editor HILADELPHIA COUNTRY CLUB, PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 8— Tommy Armour and Olin Dutra, a pair of swashbuckling veterans, showed the way to the youth of the land in the National Open Golf Championship today and seized the lead with a pair of fine 70's. Fate sent them off in a twosome together and they seemed to inspire each other as they went up and down the hills of this hilly course where traps smirk and leer around every green. Both of them are former Open champions. Armour won the title in 1027 after a playoff with Harry Cooper and Dutra took the cham-
pionship at Merion in 1934. Stepping on the heels of these two, hotter. than the noonday sun
on the fairways, came the present Open champion, Ralph Guldahl with a 35 on the outgoing nine. His partner, Frank Walsh of Rumson, N. J. was doing even better. He turned the first nine in 33. Craig Wood, the siege gun from Mamaroneck, N. Y, also went out in 35, but at noon no one had matched the tough par of 69.
Knock-"Em-Dead Indians Seek to Sweep Series
Dutra said he thought he had the course licked after today’s round and remarked that, with a few breaks, he could easily have come in with a 64 or 65. Armour was banging his long irons hard to the pin and was rolling in putts with his old-time touch. Guldahl, a slope-shouldered man with nerves and pulse that grow steadier as the pace gets hotter, is trying for his third consecutive Open championship in this tournament of 72 holes that ends at sundown Saturday. He goes into this year's Open a six-to-one favorite —one of the shortest prices ever laid on a player in this uncertain game, y ¥ 8 y wv MONG those who believe he will win is Guldahl himself, He had an effortless 72 in practice yesterday and as he walked off the 18th green he remarked: “I seemed to be hitting ’em all right; I don’t sée why I shouldn't win.” The field of 165 will fire away for three days. They go 18 holes today, 18 tomorrow, and then the 60 with the lowest scores trudge out Saturday morning for the final 36 holes.
Times Sports
Plenty of the pros would take a score of 290 for the 72 holes right now and sit in the clubhouse and let somebody try to beat it. That is 14 strokes above par, but par for the 6786 yards of the course is 69. It's a course for long hitters and that may be why Slammin’ Sammy Snead, who belts them a mile when he’s right, is expected to be right up in the battle. Snead is eight to one in the betting along with Byron Nelson, the 27-year-old Texan who is as accurate with his woods as most men are with a No. 7 iron.
Behind those three—Guldahl, Snead and Nelson—come a dozen men who have the shots to win and need only a break somewhere along
the line for victory.
» ” ” Fen from his triumph in the Goodall Round Robin Tournament, comes Lighthorse Harry Cooper, the hard luck guy of golf. Last year he was third in this tournament; in 1937 he was fourth; and in 1936 he was second. This may be his lucky year. Ed Dudley, home pro and a superb stylist, knows every blade of grass at Spring Mill and wouldn't be a bad investment at 14 to 1,

COMPARING REDS AND YANKEES JUST THINKING OF BIG SERIES
HE Cincinnati Reds rolled into June in first place. . . . They looked every inch a championship crew as they sailed off for the East to wreak havoc and devastation along the Atlantic Seaboard. . . . The vast consensus of baseball thought still favors the Reds for the National
League pennant. Measuring them against the Yankees, especially with the All-Star game season drawing near, the critics are prone to reflect on what happened last July 6. The 1938 National League All-Star team’s starting lineup had a Cincinnati battery—Vander Meer and Lompardi. . . . The American League starting battery was Gomez and Dickey, Yankees both. Buck McCormick manned first base for the N. L.; Gehrig for the A. L. In right field the National League had Ival Goodman; Ival’s Yankee counterpart covering right field for the A. L. was Joe DiMaggio. . . . Four Reds; four Yanks. In the fact that the National League team emerged victorious, critics find delight in comparing the Reds with the Yankees. . . . It's a logical sequence to the fact that the Reds held first place going into June, with their eyes on the October World Series and a showdown of the RedsYankees superiority question.
Tough Going in National
BY; the Reds are not “National League Yankees” in the sense that their pennant is already in the bag for them ., . . In the Nation al Jeag ue there are not only Cubs present to keep any royallymot from steam-rollering the percentage table, but also some heavy-handed Cardinals, a doughty crew of Pittsburgh Pirates, v-starting array of Giants, and a lot of bite and sting lurking ind in the Bees and Dodgers and Phillies. Th e National League this year is no spot where any club, even though manned with sluggers and mound aces and base-line speed - boys, like the Reds, can coast merrily along the boulevard to the pennant, There's a lot of bad intersections on the high road to the pennant in the senior circuit, plenty of tough hills. = = = = = » OLF CAMILLI, Brooklyn Dodgers’ home run king, came back from the West heading the parade for the annual All-Around Homer-Hitting Derby. He had five of the National League on his list, and was the only long-range pounder who had eeded in hitting homers in more than haif of the league ge21 aphy New York, St. Louis and Boston were the ones Dolf had so far missed and they are the three hardest places in the National League for him to record a four-base blow,
No. 13 and Bauers
HE No. 13 is lucky for Russ Bauers, Pittsburgh Pirates’ big lumberjack mound ace, or maybe unlucky, if you figure him as a potential 20-game winner, . In each of his two seasons with the Bucs, Russ has rolled up 13 victories, not bad for a young pitcher any year, but not the place to stop if he’s shooting at Cy Young's record of 311 major league victories. Jimmy Gleeson, Chicago Cubs’ freshman outfielder, likes to hit his homers when nobody else is busy along the same line. . . . He had the only runs that were visible throughout last year's sevengame Junior World Series between Newark and K. C. . . . His first major league homer came Memorial Day afternoon when Vance Page wus blanking the major league home run leaders, the Cincy Reds, and Bucky Walters, Reds’ pitcher, allowed only three hits besides the Gleeson four-bagger.

‘Y’ Golfers in Match
The newly organized Indianapolis Y. M. C. A. golf team will meet players from the Martinsville Sanitariun® at the Martinsville Hill
according to Manager Schalk’s after-midnight announcement last night. The Tribe skipper was in a jovial mood after winning two consecutive double-headers and he was particularly pleased by the fact this his nine has won four in six starts against the Blues. “It's been death in the dugout for me the last two nights, but I certainly am willing to take all that

finish in front,” he said. The twin triumph moved the Hoosiers within five games of the K. C. pacemakers and only 2!§ games back of the second-place Minneapolis Millers. The Tribe uprising has lifted the team from sixth to third and into a pennant threat, and American Association observers are giving the locals plenty of credit for busting up the Western clubs’ monopoly on the first division. The scores were 4 to 3 and 11 to 4. “Watch Indianapolis” is appearing in the headlines all over the circuit.
Tonight's contest is scheduled to start at 8:15 o'clock and tomorrow will be an off-day for the Tribesters. The first game last night supplied enough excitement and interest to satisfy the average fan. More than 7000 turned out for the bargain attraction on ladies’ night and they saw a Garrison as well as a Merriwell finish. Leaden gray to ruddy gold described that one. In the ninth Vincent DiMaggio singled after one out, Priddy sacrificed and Boyle tallied DiMaggio on a Texas

Riddle was kicked out of the game, after taking charge of the] premises, and didn’t appear again during the Midnight Madness. Don French pitched big league ball in the night opener after geting away under a handicap. In the first inning Kansas City got two runs on “nothing.” The lights were on in twilight and Myron McCormick misjudged two easy fly balls in center field. It was a dizzy inning. Then French settled down to pitch in wonder fashion, his mates helped on the defense, and it finaily wound up as a story book victory for the home club. The Indians broke loose in the seven-inning midnight contest and made the league-leading Blues look as if they were in the semipro class.

Enough putts dropped in the cup, enough drives and brassies split in the middle, to enable him to win the British Open title and two U. S. P. G. A. championships. He is eating, and well, which is more than you can say for some of the boys whose careers are all wrapped up in mashies and spoons and wedges. But Shute thinks the pros are being taken for suckers. “Just try to figure out what sense the Open makes,” Shute said last night after his final practice round for the 1939 Open, which started :oday on the course of the Philadelphia Country Club. “The purse is $1000. There were more than 1100 fellows who paid the entry fee of $5 in the hope of qualifying. That makes something like $6000, and as half of the men who paid were pros you can see that those of us here are actually playing for our own money, “Champions of other sports with as widespread appeal as golf make lots of money.

Veteran Lazzeri Seeking New Job
NEW YORK, June 8 (U. P.).— Tony (Brains) Lazzeri, once the {main cog in the New York Yankee infield, was casting about for an-
0 other major league job today after {his third
unconditional release of the year. Released by the Chicago Cubs at the beginning of the season, Poosh-'em-Up Tony caught on with the Dodgers, who let him go May 13. He was signed the next day by Bill Terry, who was having plenty of trouble around the Giants’ third base. The San Francisco Italian was hitting around .290 for this season, compared with his lifetime average of 292, but he was charged with two errors in the Giants’ 7-1 defeat by the Cubs yesterday. Terry announced Lazzeri's release immediately after the game, and said Lou Chiozza, utility infielder, would get the Giants’ third base job.

Whether he felt good, bad or indifferent didn’t make make any difference, He had to keep going. Out of his winnings he had to pay all of his expenses, and they run into money, even to a bachelor.” Shute hasn't any solution for the problem. There has been a remedy or two suggested, one being that the top ranking professionals, the ones with box office names, boycott the Open unless the prize money is raised. But the pros never will do that. They love golf too well, have too much of the live today and let tomorrow take care of itself spirit.

with the idea to holler about.
Cincinnati moved into the East, and in its next two starts scored two hammer - and - tongs extra - inning games from the Bees, 9-4, in 13 innings and 4-0 in 11 innings. Then, after bumping off the Giants twice, the Reds were cruci-17-3, in one of the biggest home-run carnages in major league history, Tuesday. But a game over is forgotten by the 1939 Reds, who have poise and balance. They tripped into Philadelphia yesterday and grabbed the opener from the Phils, 5-4, making eight hits go farther than the Phils’ 13.
Three More Twin Killings
Whitey Moore won his seventh game although hit hard. The Reds’ infield came up with three double plays. Gil Brack hit a homer with a mate on but was thrown out at the plate in the ninth trying to score the tying run. The St. Louis Cardinals beat Brooklyn, 7-3, before 33,299 last night, The Dodgers, in third place for a day, dropped to fifth when the Cubs walloped the Giants, 7-1, and Pittsburgh trumped the Bees, 2-0. Fiddler Bill McGee distributed seven hits to score his fifth straight victory for St. Louis, while the Cards rapped Mungo, Evans and Hutchinson for 11 safeties. Claude Passeau won his first game in a Cub uniform as he set the Giants down with five hits. The Giants’ once tight infield resembled a ripe piece of Swiss cheese as Lazzeri, Bonura and Jurgess made four errors in the box score and other misplays not recorded.
Swift Off to Good Start
Bill Swift, making his first start of the season, pitched the Pirates to victory with a seven-hitter. Chuck Klein, picked up as a free agent, made his debut in the Pirate outfield and scored what proved to be the winning tally after his single in the fourth. The Yanks beat the White Sox, 5-2. With the score tied, 2-2, and three on, Radcliff dropped Dickey's fly and Rolfe scored. Lee's wild pitch permitted Henrich to tally, and Selkirk's sacrifice fly sent in DiMaggio. Three runs on one hit. Washington slapped Cleveland down twice, 10-4 and 13-9. In the second game, the Indians had a 9-4 lead going into the eighth, but the Senators scored twice in that frame and seven times in the ninth. Despite homers by Rudy York and Dixie Walker, the Tigers lost to the Athletics, 5-4. The A’s scored the winning run on Sam Chapman's double, a sacrifice and a passed ball by York.
Thesz’s Title Up In Go With Lee
When Louis Thesz, 225, the 23-year-old St. Louis grappling ace who is rated heavyweight champion by the National Wrestling Association, comes to Sports Arena next Tuesday night he will be defending his title against Alabama Bill Lee, 235, wellknown grid star. Promoter Lloyd Carter announced signing of Lee today and predicts that the encounter will prove one of the best staged here in sometime. Lee, former University of Alabama football hero, now plays with the Green Bay Packers.

Lee Replaces Jones as Foe Of Jerry Martin.
Jackie K. O. Lee of Macon, Ga., has been signed to replace Phil Jones, Louisville lightweight, injured in training, in one of the eight-round feature fights on tonight's outdoor boxing program at Sports Arena, Matchmaker Kelse McClure reported today. Lee will face Jerry Martin of Cincinnati. In the other feature bout Joe Palmo, clever Dayton Italian, hopes to stop the winning streak of Herb Gilmore, Cincinnati featherweight champion of Ohio. Gilmore has had four local battles without a loss while Palmo and Martin are undefeated in two matches here. A total of 34 rounds of fighting will be presented, including two five-rounders and two fours. Three of the preliminary boys have clean local records. LeRoy Dycus, local lightweight, will be out for his fifth victory and Jimmy Norris, Madison, Ind., heavyweight, hopes to add another knockout to the four he has gathered here.
