SKOKIE GOLF COURSE, CHI
CAGO, July 1. —With one-third of the
field in the second qualifying frame
of the national open golf champion
ship tournament haTing finished the
first half of today’s thirty-six-hole
round, Frank T. Sprogle, professional

SKOKIE COUNTRY CLUB, CHI
CAGO, IIL, July 11.—Play of tho sec
ond day's qualifying round in the Na
tional open golf championship tour
nament began in a light drizzle today.
Weather conditions made good scores
doubtful.
The heavy rain which soaked the
course throughout the night and de
layed the start by an hour had
slackened. Only a small gallery braved
the damp weather to watch the stars
perform.
In view of the heavy downpour and
mud, the committee ruled that a ball
could be lifted and cleaned while at
rest on the greens without penalty.
The committee also announced a ball
imbedded in the mud of a fairway or
green could be lifted and dropped.
Jock’s Total Looks Safe
With Jock Hutchison's sensational
. 135 as a mark to shoot at, the golfers
were anxious to gjet away. It seemed
unlikely that Jock's total would be
reached by any of the players.
The Hutchison score—the lowest
ever made in tournament play— was
the only outstanding feature of Mon
day's play in the qualifying rounds.
Hutchison, in pcwr physical condi- j
tion as a result of an attack of pto- j
maine poisoning, following his re
turn from England, where he played
in the British championship, was able
to make the record score only through
superb control.
Straight or the Pin
He was thirteen pounds under
weight and h:s drives did not have;
their usual force, but the ball car
ried straight for the pin, and only
once was he off the course.
Following are the names and
scores of the twenty-seven players
who qualified Monday from a field of .
108 for the final in the national tour
nament:

Bv United New*
NEW YORK, July 11.—'"Har. har,

With this naive intimation of mirth,
did Edward Barrow, business manager
of the New York Yankees, receive
the news from Cleveland that the
Yanks were thinking of trading Babe
Ruth and $1,000,000 worth of other
players to the White Sox for Eddie
Collins, Amos Strunk, one other
player and a few odd pennies. v

“donk these baseball writers get up
some of the funniest Jokes? Right
out of their heads, too. Har har,

Barrow said the Yanks might trade
off Babe for a warranty deed to the
British empire and the hair-net con-;
cession at Vassar. but for anything
less than that—"Har, har, har!”
“We aren't trading or selling Babe
Ruth to anybody. Neither are we
thinking of trading Second Baseman

concluded Barrow.

Columbus again today and the
youthful Clyde Seib was slated to get,
another chance to bend his curves
from the mound of the league leaders.
Steve Yerkes, veteran, reported this
morning and he was ready to grace
the Indian dugout with his
presence and the fans were
anxious to see if the great player of
the 1917 Tribe champions still pos
sessed some of the old ability.
The Indians won yesterday, 18 to 6.
So did the second-place i Saints win;
not by such a lop-sided score, but
they won, nevertheless and thereby
remained within overhauling distance.
Tribe Gets Sixteen Hits
It was a shocking day for the
Columbus pitchers Monday in the
series opener here. Sixteen hits for
eighteen runs represented the Tribe’s
afternoon's work.
“Erky Jerky” Northrop was the
first Senator flinger to take a pasting
and then J. Gleason relieved him and j
leceived a reception that he will not
forget.
The Indians had on their jlugging j
clothes and they got tired running
i around the sacks. Extra base hits
|
came in clusters.
Baird got a pair "of doubles, Whelan
■ cne, Covington one. Brown one, and
Schreiber one. Rehg cracked a triple
and Cavet likewise. For the Senators
; Todt belted out a home run off Shea
I before Cavet could get sufficiently
1 wormed up to rush to the rescue.
Shea Goes Out Early
Pat Shea started on the mound for
the Indians and he was driven to the
showers in the third inning. The Sen
ators scored five runs in that stanza,
but the Tribesmen got busy imme
diately and also scored five. This
sent Northrop out.
In the fifth and sixth innings the In
dians collected ten runs, four in the
fifth and six in the sixth.
It was ‘ kids' day” at the park and
the little fellows were kept in howling
spirits the entire afternoon by the
heavy hitting of their favor.tes.
If the weather did not Interfere a
better battle was promised for this
afternoon.

Best Thing for Yanks
Olympics Stay Abroad
By HEXR7 FARRELL,
United Press Sports Editor.
NEW YORK, July 11.—While Amer-;
lea would like to nave staged the I
1924 Olympics, It perhaps la a good j
thing for amateur athletics In this i
country that Paris was able to ob- j
tain the funds to stage the games. j
There is so little compensation for I
the amateur athlete in the United (
States that a foreign trip every four j
years is about the only goal a young
track or field star has to Inspire his
work.
The trip to California, of course,
would be a treat for a good many
youngsters, but most of the stars who
are expected to be on the next Amer
ican Olympic team made the trip to i
the coast last year for the "nation- I
als.” Also, from the way the far j
western stars have been cutting up
on the track, a good percentage of I
the team will be from that sectipr |
From a financial standpoint, Amer- I
lea Is In a much better position to
travel than the foreign countries, and
even if Los Angeles were willing to
pay the freight for all the European
stars, yet the representation would j
have been small.
" i I
Los Angeles. It Is understood, may
have another setback when It comes
to carrying out the plans for the "pre
liminary Olympics'* in 1923. Senti
ment in the A. A. U. Is said to be de
cisively against the award of the
1923 “nationals" to the California j
city, and the “nationals" were
counted on being one of the big sea- I

LYNCH FLOORS BUFF AND
WINS BANTAMWEIGHT TITLE
Regains Crown of Little Fellows by
Decisive Victory.
By United yews
NEW YORK, July 11. —Skinny Joe
Lynch of Hell s Kitchen, won buck his
bantamweight title with a left smash
on the jaw that flopped Johnny Buff on
his neck at start of the fourteenth
round of their scheduled fifteen-round
fight Monday night.
A bloody towel came floating out
of Buff's corner, signifying the sur
render of the wizened 34-year-old Jer
sey City family man, who won the
title by outpointing Pete Herman in
Mcdison Square Garden last winter.
Lynch now holds the title for the
second time.
Lynch was Buff's master from
the second round to the end.
and his executioner In the latter
stages of the tiny boxer's hopeless
struggle.
Lynch set out to carve his man
with his long, sure left and almost
throughout the fight he had Buff
impaled and quivering on that Imple
ment liKe a nervous oyster on a fork.
Johnny tried to make a fresh start
in the eleventh, but Lynch slipped
the punches and simply treated Buff
with contempt. Weak and bleeding
on the ropes in the thirteenth round.
Buff took a fearful smashing from
both of Joe's batteries and Referee
Haley Joined with the crowd in shout
ing to Buff's seconds for the sponge.
With the fourteenth bell Lynch
eplit a crack in the atmosphere and
with a leap and a swish of his left
glove clouted the midget full on the
chin for the only clean knockout of
the battle. Then came the towel.

Petition Filed in California for Pari-

SACRAMENTO, Cal., July 11.—
Restoration of race track betting in

The proposed measure provides for

I leading jockeys on the American turf

j returns with thb leaders of the ring

I One of the biggest money winners
! of the season is Alfred Johnson, who
j generally has the mount on the sen-
I satlonal Morvlch. In six weeks John
son won $70,000 for his, bosses in
j three races. He rode Morvich to vic
' tory in the $50,000 Kentucky Derby

' Francisco Club, regards Willie
j Kamm, the $125,000 third baseman
; purchased by the White Sox, as' a

By selling Jimmy Caveney to the
Cincinnati Reds for $40,000, Jimmy

MOLLA TO STAY

REMAINACTIVE
Mrs. Mallory Not to Retire, and
She Will Defend Her
American Title.
STATEMENT BY HUSBAND
By HEXRT FARRELL,
United Press Sports Editor.
NEW YORK. July 11.—Mrs. Molla
Mallory, American tennis champion,
is not discouraged over her recent de
feat by Mile. Suzanne Lenglen and
she is not going to retire.
Take the word of her husband,
Franklin L Mallory, Wall street
broker, for it. „
Reports that Mrs. Mallory Is going
to retire and will not defend her
American championship this summer
are not founded upon facts. “She has
no Intention of quitting the game,” he
said here today.
With the assurance that the Amer
ican woman champion will defend her
title at Forest Hills this summer,
critics are now trying to figure how
successful she will be la maintaining
her position as the queen of the Amer
ican court.
Miss Mary K. Browne gave Mrs.
Mallory the battle of her life in the
final match for the title last summer.
