selected the tricky course for its big annual affair to be played from Wednesday, Aug. 7, through Friday, Aug. 9. It will be the sixth straight year that Indiana’s top teesmen have fought it out north of Road 40, and this time it will be for Bill . Reed’s crown, which he intends to defend. t 4 2

Indianapolis Country Club. : The Bar Association trophy will be at stake in the low gross tourney, open only to members. Players in the President’s handicap tourney,: which also is restricted to members, will bid for the Samuel H. Dowden Cup. Besides these events, there will be a low net handicap tourney for judges, a low net handicap for members and guests, a driving contest, approaching contest, putting ‘contest, money award tourney and competition for the title “best-dressed golfer.” Lawrence B. Moore, Elbert L. Gilliom, Charles D. Babcock and Edwin Steers, who make up the golf committee, announce that more than 30 prizes will be awarded. At the evening dinner, Indiana's Coach Bo McMillin will speak, and Judge Michael L. Fansler will hand out the booty. ” ” ”

‘With the Ladies

UNDER TODAY'S scorching sun, the Highland ladies were to play the second round of their spring handicap tournament. Here were the pairings in the top flights: Championship—Mrs. F. P. Davis vs. Mrs. Paul Laymon, Jacqueline Wolf vs. Mrs. L. L. Lykins. Consolation—Mary Gorham vs. Mrs. Paul Whittemore; Mrs, J. A. Brower vs. Mrs. Robert Sanders. First Flight—Mrs. S. A. Jaqua vs. Mrs. Vance Oathout, Mrs. S. E. Fenstermaker vs. Mrs. Leo Mc- - Namara. Consolation—Mrs. C. L. ’gSmith vs. Mrs. 'E. O. Marquette, Mrs. Walter Greene vs. Mrs. H. Magennis. | The feature match in yesterday’s first round was a secondflight affair between Mrs. H. Bartholomew and Mrs. Harry Leer, which went 31 holes to a decision, - Mrs. Bartholomew was the winner, 1 up. 2 ” 2

A SIMILAR tournament at Hillcrest was won by Mrs. Paul Frame, who scored a 3 and 2 victory over Mrs. A. D. Peters in the championship match. In the second flight Mrs. Marian Smith defeated Mrs. Robert O’'Neel, 3 and 2, while Mrs. W. E. Bookwalter downed Mrs. William Hutchinson, 4 and 3, in the third flight. Mrs. Hartford Sallee edged Mrs. Guy Smith, 4 and 3, third flight; Mrs. Dale Lentz overcame Mrs. William Binder, 3 and 2, first consolation flight; Mrs. A. C.

18 More Holes Tomorrow e distance is 72 holes, medal play Eighteen holes will be played today, another 18 tomorrow and 36 on ie th when, unless there is

a tie, the Open champion will be crowned. That crown now rests on the sunburned brow of Byron Nelson, who took it at Philadelphia last year by begting Craig Wood in a second play-off. Nelson, Wood and Denny Shute each finished 72 holes with 284. In the first play-off round Nelson and Wi had 68's and Shute, with a 76, was eliminated. Next day Nelson shot a 70 to Wood's 73 and took| the title. | Little Gets Late Support Nelson and Wdod are rated as 8 to 1 shots and bracketed with them at the nose odds are Jimmy Demaret, Ralph Guldahl and Lawson Little. There was a sudden surge of sentiment last night for Little, the long hitting pro who is a tough man to beat when his shots are . staying on line. That carried him up among the favorites, for if there is one. thing the Canterbury course calls for it is long hitting off tees and through the fairways. At 10 to 1 in the last-minute odds were Henry Picard, Bud Ward, amateur champion; Dick Metz and Harry Cooper. Gene Sarazen, Jimmy Thomson, Horton Smith and Ed Dudley were held at 15 to 1. In the 20 to 1 class were Tommy Armour, Paul Runyan, Jug McSpaden, K + Laffoon and Vic Ghezzi. : Montague, the once mysterious marvel from California, was at

Canadian Birds Boon to Hunters

WASHINGTON, June 6—(U. P.) —Land rehabilitation. activities of the Canadian | government have played an influential part in supplying American hunters - with a plentiful supply of migratory waterfowl, the Biological Survey reveals. Following the intense drouth of 193¢ which destroyed millions of acres of farm lands and dried up marshes and sloughs of the North Central States and the prairie provinces of Canada, the number of migratory waterfowl reached an all-time low of 30,000,000 birds in 1935. It has been increased since to more than 65,000,000.

‘Engineer Predicts Air-Cooled Baseball

. SCHENECTADY, N. Y., June 6.— (U! P.)—Robert J. Swackhamer, General Electric engineer who grew up with| night baseball, designing more than 120 lighting systems for minor and major league parks, believes the national pastime eventually will be played under roofs with indirect lighting and conditioned weather." The innovation would be brought about in another 10 or 15 years, the engineer predicts, by a desire to accommodate baseball fans and to

brickbat tip. The poundage is incidental but

he will face in his first step toward Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis. Last night before a crowd of 6075 at Olympia Stadium, Conn would have given anything for a knockout punch. He had everything else— full command of boxing science, perfect condition and the craze to win—but as he said in his dressing room after the fight: “I was trying for a knockouf in those last two rounds but I couldn't hit him hard enough.”

Conn Threw All

In the last two rounds’ Conn hit the New Jersey challenger with everything except the watép bucket. He pumped | left and right hooks into the fading Lesnevich until both were slipping and sliding into the ropes. He popped a countless string of left jabs until the eyes of the challenger were nearly swollen shut. He had the crowd on its feet screaming for a knockout, but he couldn't deliver. In the 10th the champion from Pittsburgh landed a hard right uppercut breaking out of a clinch and pounded Lesnevich into the ropes where [Lesnevich slipped and ut it wasn’t enough to phase him. |This was Conn’s best round but hej lost it on a low blow. In winning his third title defense Conn followed the same strategy that gave him a 15-round decision over Lesnevieh at New York last November. He started slowly, letting the challenger show what he iad, then he lopened up.

Lesnevich Opens First

Lesnevich Was the aggressor until the latter rounds. He did most of the leading, while Conn used his left Ee in counterpunching. Lesnevich’s blows were hard when they landed, but they generally were to infrequent to do much damage. He was handicapped by his reach, which is more than two inches shorter than Conn’s. The two judges and referee Sam Hennessey were unanimous in the decision, Hennessey giving Conn seven rounds, Lesnevich six, and calling two even, for the closest of the scoreboard margins. Mike Jacobs, who co-promoted the bout with Jack Nelson, promised

this summer but said he had not decided when or where to stage the fight. If Conn could eliminate either of them he would be ready to challenge Louis. Nelson said he would like to promote a Conn-Louis bout here next September. The crowd was one of the smallest ever to see a championship battle. It paid $17,048, -of which 35 per cent went to Conn and 15 to Lesnevich.

Pat Comiskey Meets Dudas

NEW YORK, June 6 (U. P).— Pat Comiskey, outstanding young heavyweight prospect, enters the Madison Square Garden ring toright a 2-1 favorite over Veteran Steve Dudas of Edgewater, N. J, in an eight-round return match. The Comiskey - Dudas battle, slated for eight rounds because Comiskey is only 19 years old and a fighter has to be at least 20 to go more than eight heats in New York State, is listed as sub-feature to a 12-round brawl between Buddy Baer and Valentin Campolo. Most experts consider Baer less promising than Comiskey because Buddy, now 24, has been fighting for six years with little success. Comiskey is figured to win tonight's battle and advance to a match later with the winner of the Baer-Campolo bout in the hope that a title challenger will emerge by next June.

Marquette Grid Outlook Is Rosy

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 6 (U. P.).—Marquette University’s football team will be stronger all around next fall and should chalk up its finest season since Coach John Leo (Paddy) .

who has nine friumphs. By winning, the Reds not only saved the loss of the lead to the idle Dodgers, but increased their margin over Brooklyn to a game and a half. Thompson, who started the season by winning five of his first games, went into eclipse in late May and lost three in a row. He righted himself June 1 by beating the Bees, 3-2. Last night he gave the Giants 10 hits but was effective in the pinches.

Drives In Two Runs The Giants filled the bases the first with none out and fanned Ott and caused league batting leader Danning to bounce in|

a double play. Thompson struck the first blaw in his own behalf in the second inning with the bases loaded a 1d two out. He whaled Harry Gum-

runs. Then Bil Werber slapped in two more with a single and Lonnie Frey's double accounted for another

Larry Rosenthal’s fumble let in one run and Lee’s wild heave into center field on Charlie Keller's bunt paved the way for two more gift tallies. The White Sox hammered Monte Pearson to cover in the ninth but Fireman John Murphy came in to put out the fire by retiring Kuhel, Kreevich and Wright in order. Relief Pitcher Bob Harris singli in the fourteenth inning to drive in the run by which the Browns made it two in a row over the slumping Red Sox, 4-3. The Sox had the game won until C Laabs doubled in the ninth, drivi in two runs to tie the score, 3:3. Jim Tabor had his hand cut sli ing into second and had to retire. Joe Cronin committed two erro making it 10 errors for the Red Sox in three games.
