FROM the Louisville Times: “Get them before they get you!” is the strategy of Lieut. Fred (Buzz) Borries Jr., based on a few days’ harrowing experiences in the Coral sea engagement, for winning the naval war in the Pacific. Football fans will recall Buzz Borries as an all-America grid player at Annapolis. . . . He was one of the best gridders ever developed at the naval academy. . . . Ask Notre Dame. . . . The flier, who was in the air searching for Japanese battleships and planes when his carrier, the Lexington, went to the bottom, arrived in Louisville with his bride to spend a 10-day furlough with his parents, Fred Borries Sr. and Mrs. Borries. It was the first visit of the bride, the former Dores Castien, Los Angeles, to Louisville and the first glimpse her “in-laws” had of her, « « « Friends and relatives gave the couple a warm reception at Bowman field. Lieut. Borries was obviously pleased—but careful not to say so— about the navy's decision to discontinue “super-battleships” and concentrate on the production of carriers. The most potent weapon in a hard-hitting and long-range naval battle is a carrier, and Lieut. Borries is one who believes in offensive warfare. “You can't clared. “Some of the planes are bound to get through. to do is to make the first attack.” From his dive-boember cockpit the flier saw and heard the internal explosions which ended the Lexington. Fortunately, there was another U. S. carrier in the vicinity on which to land. “We didn’t know where the Japs were and they didn't know where we were,” he said. “It's a lot of fun . . . if you like fun— sitting on a bull's eye and not knowing when the shooting starts.”

Marquette Teammates Join Marines
JIMMY RICHARDSON and Bob McCahill, forward-passing senior left halfbacks on the Marqueite university football team last fall, have again signed up on the same “team.” They reported this week for the marine corps officers training class at Quantico, Va. Richardson last year compisted 83 per cent of his forward pass attempts, while McCzhill made good on 53 per cent of his attempts.

Now is the time for all good Indianapolis baseball fans to come to
The home boys are home for a long, long time and the extended stretch at Victory field offers them a grand opportunity to climb in the race. When they departed on their last road trip they were in the cellar. Now they are fifth after falling back from fourth. The Tribesters will start the home engagement by staging a bargain attraction with the St. Paul Saints this evening, first game in the twilight starting at 6:00, seven innings; the second under the lights at 8:30 over the regulation route. The St. Paul series calls for two tonight, one tomorrow night, one Saturday afternoon and two Sunday afternoon. The Saints will be followed by the Minneapolis Millers, Milwaukee Brewers, Kansas City Blues and Louisville Colonels, except that the Indians are to play at Louisville on July 4, and the Colonels here on July 5 and 6.

Ginn to Renew

NEW YORK, June 18 (U. P.).— Led by Tiny Bobby Ginn of Nebraska, newest of the mile sensations, the nation’s crack athletes started arriving today for the National A. A. U. track and field championships at Triborough stadium this weekend. Ginn, a 5-foot, 6-inch junior who defeated both Leslie MacMitchell of New York university and Leroy Weed of Southern California in winning the N. C. A. A. mile title, will renew his rivalry with them in the 1500-meter event Saturday. Other new arrivals included Arky Erwin, Louisiana State university's defending champion in the 400meter hurdles, and Archie Harris, former Indiana star now teaching at North Carolina A. & T. college, who seeks a repeat in the discus.

ville.
And with his low score Morey, a senior at Louisiana State university, gets to keep the Edwin L. Lennox trophy for a year. His other prizes included a $50 war bond, a diamondstudded gold watch chain, and $10 in war stamps, a personal donation from Mr. Lennox.
Eight Above Par
Morey played steady golf throughout the tournament. He opened with a 73 the first day, two strokes behind first-place McCreary, at the Indianapolis Country club. Next he fired a 75 at Broadmoor and shared | the second-day leadership with John David. Yesterday Morey bracketed 36 and 37 at Meridian Hills for a 73 and a final score of 221, eight strokes above par. Henry Kowal, defending titleholder from Highland, and Bill Reed, Speedway, finished in g tie for second after both players had attempted desperate 18th green shots to tie Morey.
Kowal had a one over par 72 yesterday to add to his previous rounds of 76 and 74. Reed finished late yesterday with the most sparkling round of the tourney—a two under par 69. He tried a chip shot onto the green for an eagle on the last hole to tie Morey, The ball fell approximately 12 inches short of the pin. Kowan had tried earlier to sink a chip shot and missed by a yard. Hard-Luck Harter
Other leaders were Phil Talbot, Bloomington, 224; Charles Harter, Speedway, 225; George Enos, Country club, 226; John David, Meridian Hills, 227; Ike Cummings, Country club, 228; Clark Espie, Hillcrest, and
McCreary, Meridian Hills, 23 Harter, a consistent Bo, was the hard-luck man on the final round. He had started with a 149, one stroke behind the leaders. He shot even par the first nine yesterday and was even with Morey until the 13th hole. Then Harter drove into the trap at the right, “brassied” out, but the ball hit a bunker and laid in the rough. His third shot dipped into the creek that fronts the green. He laid out in 4, pitched wide in 5, putted on in 6 and in, in 7. That took the zip out of Harter and he admitted so, himself. Morey won the state high school title in 1937, captured the state amateur in 1939, and teamed with Tim David to cop the Tri-State championship last year. He will play in the National Intercollegiate
tourney next week at South Bend.
