By HARRY GRAYSON NEA Service Sports Editor NEW YORK, July 15.—William H. Southworth is one of the more practical gents now employing shock troops in major leagué parks, but says that if ‘he had it to do all over again-he’d include a medical course in his baseball education. “The trick thus far,” asserts Billy Southworth, “has been to keep the Cardinals on the field.” Listing the St. Louis Nationals’ casualties, Manager Southworth wonders how the Red Birds have managed to be as close to the Brooklynis as théy are. . Billy the Kid points out that especially under the conditions, the

CHICAGO, July 15 (U. P.).— Coach Bob Zuppke of Illinois reached a crisis in his long career

today as university trustees met to determine his fate and settle a three-year dispute, enflamed in its final stage by Harold (Red) Grange’s $50,000 libel suit against Athletic Director . Wendell S. Wilson. Grange’s action was the last blow delivered. in the battle between Zuppke’s supporters and opponents in the violent prelude to the trustees’ action to end his feud with Wilson. It was believed dismissal of Zuppke or Wilson, and possibly both, was necessary to restore harmony. Grange, a leader in Zuppke's defense and famed “Galloping Ghost” of Illinois’ gridiron hey-day, charged in his suit yesterday that his reputation “in the business, professional and athletic world” had been damaged by a telegram which Wilson sent to newspapers last. Sunda He previously aecused Wilson of attempting to obtain Zuppke's job in 1938. He said Wilson offered him a job as assistant coach. Wilson

Coach Zuppke’s Fate in Hands Of Illinois Trustees Today

week relative to my seeking the cbaching position is one of the most contemptible lies ever concocted. “It is consistent with Red’s record since leaving the University of Illinois and part of the underhanded campaign of a few selfish alumni who since 1936 have tried to get (George) Potsy Clark in as athletic director at Illinois and have led Zuppke to believe that he has been stabbed in the back. The head of this smear is Rune Clark, Champaign (Ill) liquor dealer, brother of Potsy and a friend of Red.” “potsy” Clark, Illini football star in 1914, coaches at Grand -Rapids, Mich. He formerly coached the Detroit and Brooklyn teams in the National Professional League. The Zuppke-Wilson feud developed three years ago when Wilson obtained Zuppke’s resignation in exchange for a $6000 retirement pension. Zuppke changed his mind later, and the trustees rejected his resignation. . Strained relations since 1938 have been marked by intermittent outpursts from both Zuppke and Wilson. The dispute flared anew recently and Zuppke charged Wilson had attempted to get his job. Wilson issued a denial and said Zuppke had been “misguided.” Relaxing with his paints and canvases at his Lake Harbor, Mich, summer home, Zuppke defied. his opponents and said, “I'll never quit; they’ll have to fire me.” He even refused to see University President Arthur Cutts Willard because he believed Willard ‘would ask him to resign. Later he had “a

fof the five straight defeats at the hands of the Cubs and Reds. An unusual angle was that Frank Crespi and Martin Marion, who at the outset were not supposed to hit too much, were the only ones who belted the ball while the club was in the tailspin. Now that the Cardinals are at last intact, Southworth hints that it won't be long before they'll overhaul the Dodgers. Southworth believes the Cincinnatis have too big a deficit to overcome, ‘It is strictly a two-horse race in his book, and while he concedes that Brooklyn has a fine club, he makes it clear that no one in the St. Louis party is thinking of running second. 8t. Louis infield did not cut up as a unit from May 28, when Johuny Mize broke the first joint of the index finger of his throwing hand, until the blokes in the red blazers opened their current eastern swing in the night game at the Polo Grounds, Mize and his booming

bat were on thé sidelines for a month. The Cards’. trouble started opening day, and trailed the outfit like a faithful hound. Clyde Shoun twisted his ankle in the inaugural, southpawed for six weeks under a tremendous handicap. Walker Cooper, giant catching recruit who obtained a flying start, broke his left shoulder blade and suffered a separation of the clavicle in a collision with Second Baseman Harry Marnie of the Phillies, May 18. It is only now that the younger Cooper, who completed one of the big show’s brother batteries, can catch in an emergency. Damage still affects his swing. Walkér Cooper's injury left the bulk of the backstopping up to the ancient and honorable Gus Msancuso, who on July 4 had to catch despite a twisted knee. After being yanked in from left field to assist Mancuso behind the bat, Don Padgett kept Pitcher Ira Hutchinson company as a tonsilitis patient.

INDIAN CANYON COURSE, SPOKANE, Wash,, July 15 (U, P.).

i | —Jimmy Clark, Long Beach, Cal,

aircraft worker, today had a fivestroke lead over the field as the National Public Links Golf Tournament entered the second qualifying round. Clark’s sizzling 64 in the first round—seven under par—set a new competitive course record and made him the most feared of 178 com- ‘| petitors. once—by Bud Ward, former National Amateur champion, in practice last week.

Clark, who is present Long Beach

teur champion, took the tricky Indian Canyon Course to pieces with two eagles, pars. Bill Korns, 18-year-old Salt Lake City schoolboy, clipped two strokes from par with his 69 for second place. -Korns blew two strokes to par on the first hole, knocked in four birdies in .a row to do the first nine in 33 and shot even par 36 on the back: side.

Golfing Cop Shoets 70

Jim Molinari, . San Francisco's golfing cop, and his townsman, Bill Fritz, shipyard machinist, had 70s, tied with Loio Palenapa, who works on a Hawaiian road crew. - Even par 71s were turned in by Dave Dixon, Vancouver, B, C.; Luke Barnes, Atlanta; Walter Tebaldi, Alameda, Cal.; Arthur Pomy, Detroit; Harold Gjolme, Seattle, and Fred Jenick, Detroit. Clark’s 64 helped his. Long Beach team lead the inter-city competition won last year by San Francisco. Detroit was second while Alameda, Cal, and Atlanta were tied for third. : : First-round scores were better than expected, and it was believed that 150 or better might be needed for a crack at the title.

Dave Mitchell Has 74

Former champions failed to distinguish themselves on the first day. Robert Clark, St. Paul; Mitchell, Atlanta, and Steve Szwedko, Pittsburgh, had respectable 74s, but Charlie Ferrera of San Francisco had a 77 and Al Leach of Cleveland had and 80, including a four-putter from 15 feet. Steve Milich, 15, of Portland, Ore., baby of the tournament, took an 81, but Eddie Fry, 16, son of Oakland Golf Pro Earl Fry, and Bobby Hudson, 17, Long Beach, had 74s. The best 64 qualifiers will go into match play tomorrow. Two 18-hole matches Wednesday and two more Thursday will cut the field to four for the 36-hole semi-finals Friday ‘land the 36-hole finals Saturday.
