Miss Ellis,

Local Star Is After Sth State Title

' Alice O'Neal Beaten |

| In Semi-Final Round

SOUTH BEND, Ind. July 18 (U. P)—A blond newcomer from Bloomington and the long-time queen of Indiana golf teed off today in the 36-hole championship match of the 1947 women's golf tournament. Dorothy Ellis, the Indianapolis schoolteacher who has held the title four times, and Geraldine Bariani, an Indiana university librarfan who won the Colorado state championship in 1945 were the title match opponents. Miss Elis, who won her first state crown in 1637, advanced to the finals yesterday by eliminating the defending champion, Alice O'Neal of Indianapolis, 2 and 1. Miss Bariani, who gets every possible bit of power behind her drives, had an easier time with Mrs. J. Calvert Shorb, putting out the South, Bend veteran, 4 and 3. Reévenge was sweet for Miss Ellis yesterday. Miss O'Neal had scored a humiliating 6 and 5 victory. in the state title match a year ago, and then the 20-year-old Indianapolis coed followed this up by lifting Miss Ellis’ city cro Different Story Yesterday, however, it was a different ‘story, Miss Ellis fired her best golf of the tournament on the front nine—a one-over-par 40—and was three up at the turn. On the “back nine, Miss O'Neal twice cut Miss Ellis’ lead to one up, but she never could square the match, Miss Ellis led by two holes as theysteed off on the short 17th. Miss O'Neal's tee shot landed in the rough and her second shot was inches short of the green. Miss Ellis also was short on her first shot, but her approach lande a yard from the cup. Miss O'Neal was down in four. However, Miss Ellis sank her putt for a par—and the match. Miss Bariani was two up at the end of nine holes in her match with Mrs. Shorb and when she won the 10th and 11th holes, it virtually ended the match. She won on the 15th with a birdie two.

Campbell hoped he'd receive another 15%-ounce driver in the mails from Kansas City today. Lack of the big mallet did not seem to handicap him much yesterday, however, when he used his brassie to smash a medal score of 66 and eliminate Bill Cordingley, Minneapolis, 2 and 1. It was the best 18-hole card of the tournament. Jacobs is the four-time winner of the Iowa amateur. He struggled

In Hambletonian Stake

GOSHEN, N. Y, July 18 (NEA), =With the $55,000 Hambletonian Stake over Goshen’s triangular track, Aug. 6, rapidly approaching, 20 3-year-old trotters seem likely to head postward. If more than 15 go to the post for the first heat, a new record for the number of starters in the rich sulky derby will be set.

R Horace Johnston's bay colt Rodney. is now the favorite at 2-to-1, with Hoot Mon and Way Yonder sharing second place at 3-to-1. Other probable starters in the order of their likely post-time odds are Volotone, Scotch Thistle, Deanna Hanover, Flying Dutchess, Mighty Morris, Nymph Hanover, Buckshot B., Joe's Pride, Laura Hanover, Niblik, Patrick Ranover, Lloyd Hanover, Friday Return, American Ballad, Mrs. Popydoop, Eula Hanover and Fedor. Spanish-American war veteran Bion Shively will drive Rodney, winner of all three of his races this year, in which he trimmed the then Hambletonian favorite, Hoot Mon, Way Yonder and other candidates. Rodney is definitely the one to beat. Sep Palin of Indianapolis will pilot Hoot Mon, the costliest colt ever to race in the Hambletonian, having been sold last summer for $50,000 by Charles Phellis of Greenwich fo Mrs. James Johnson of Detroit and Lexington,’ Ky.

Canadian Open Led by Oliver

TORONTO, July 18 (U. P.)~Ed (Porky) Oliver, deft-stroking pro from Wilmington, Del, was 11 strokes under par but only three blows -ahead of Bobby Locke of South Africa today as play in the Canadian open golf tournament entered the third day of competition.

The hefty, hard-hitting U. 8. star blistered the greens and fairways yesterday when he added an eight-under-par 63 to his 68 of the first day to post a 36-hole total of 131, a record for two rounds. Locke, knickered ace from the Transvaal, continued to play steadily, however, and put a 66 to his first round 68 for a total .of 134. Oliver racked up 10 birdies in setting a competitive course yrecqrd in his second round and hif touch on the greens was shown in that he needed only 25 putts. He had only one had hole—the 12th where he took a six on a par-four after his second shot went into a creek. Two Americans—Clayton Heafner of Charlotte, N. C., and George Payton of Newsport News, Va —and a Canadian, Bob Gray of the host
