Ward's 70 Boosts Walker Cup Hopes

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 15 (U. P.).~—~Walker cup golfers took their final practice licks to{day before squaring off tomorrow into four foursomes to settle the yearly argument over whether there are better amateur players on this ‘or the American side of the Atlantic.

Their hopes were buoyed, riot only

[Evansville Reitz Wins Golf Title

EVANSVILLE, Ind, May 15.— Reitz high school of Evansville, with Martin shooting a 71, one under par, captured the southern Indiana athletic conference golf title at Otis park's course here yesterday afternoon. = With a four-man team, Reitz won the event on 319 strokes for the 18hole test. Bedford finished second with 322, while New Albany was third on 324. Other scores were Bloomington 326, Evansville Central 378, Jasper 384, Bosse Evansville 389, and Princeton 440,

in other major league cities, listed them as odds-on favorites. Now neither team is top-choice among the bookies. One New Jersey bookmaker said ‘he was now quoting the Chicago Cubs, Boston Braves and Brooklyn Dodgers at 2 to 1 and the Cardinals “a little behind at 11 to 5.” Tigers at 9 to 5 He figured the Detroit Tigers as 9 to 5 favorite in the American with the Red Sox at 2 to 1 and the New York Yankees and Cleveland Indians at 4 to 1. A careful analysis of play to date indicates clearly why things ‘are so cloudy. The Dodgers’ pitching went sour, after a brilliant start. The Braves started slowly as did

the fore. In the American, Chicago faded badly after a fast start, while the Red Sox finally have hit a winning stride and rate highly. The Indians have played a spirited, hustling brand of ball and are génerally considered as a .good “dark horse”

The Athletics, showing surprising strength, now are a good bet to beat the slow moving Browns in the race to stay out of the cellar. .» Giants Are Dark Horse The National league's best “dark horse” bet, the New York Giants, maintained their “hex” yesterday over the Cardinals, beating them, 6 to 4, at St. Louis for their fifth straight victory over the world champions. " A ‘six-run rally in the fourth, which sent Murry Dickson to his fifth straight defeat, clinched the victory. The Reds made it two straight over Brooklyn at Cincinnati, win-

ual's Redskins will be in defense of the team title they won in 1946 at Washington. Both will be up against a hard proposition if they, are to repeat, Big Fields The Greenclad winged-T wearers, long on team strength but short on top-flight individual ' performers, will have to try to pull the title from a field of 168 contestants with Shortridge and Crispus Attucks as formidable challengers.
