J AST night, the male shooters con- |

Two youngsters from Northeast

record total. Each shot 372.
S. Beall lifted himself and T. j
Flint into the lead of class F doubles ■
when he shot a 363 set as his share |
of a 616 total.
Among the topnotchers Fred Wat- ]
son and Charley Magee of Peoples ,
Drug Stores copped top doubles hon- \
ors with a 753 count, good for a

the star roles in hoisting Rinaldi
Tailors into second place in the ;
class B team event with a 1.777 !
count.
Norman Schroth's 151 and 384 were J
the big items in the 1.647 total
chalked up by the Charity team of
the Elks' League, which gained a i
tie for first place in calss C. Roll- j
ing with Brotherly Love, another j
Elks’ entry, Ed Blakeney made a
flashy start in the tournament with
a 390 set. although his team failed to
place among the leaders. The Sen- I
ators from Northeast Temple took
sixth place in class D with 1,621.
High set honors for the night went
to Charley Litz, rolling with the St.

Rot Whit ford Is Honored.
pD EDINGER. rolling with the Mav
hew All-Star?, made four straight:
strikes, but won't get the $20 that I
is the prize for this rare feat. He'll
have to be content with two bucks,
since his four strikes in a row came
at the end of the second game and
the start of his third.
The tournament momentarily was
brought to a standstill last night:
when the association honored Roy K. ;
Whit ford of The Star for being the
only bowler to roll in all of the W. C. :

SPORTS
By BURTON HAWKINS
TONY LAZZERI handled hot
ones long before he started
infleldlng for the Yankees
... He was an apprentice
riveter . . . Benny Bortnick. the
blubbery grappling referee, is nurs
ing a badly infected arm . . . the
result of a canvas bum acquired
when being used as a mop by La
veme Baxter at Turner's Arena
. . . Benny may not be able to offi
cite. if it may be called that, to
morrow night . . . and many fans
will be happy if he doesn't.
Untz Brewer and Roy Maekert,
whose names are inscribed indelibly
in the annals of Maryland Univer
sity athletic achievements, were
buddies in the Army during the
World War . . . Untz argued Roy,
a bruising tackle and fullback, into
going there . . . Harvey Walker of
the Cincinnati Reds and Gerald
ditto of the Detroit Tigers, both of
whom are hitting heavily at pres
ent, are brothers.
Ralph De Palma, famous auto
speedster, used the same motor for
12 years, transferring it from one
chassis to another . . . and the en
gine employed by Wild Bill Cum
mings when he captured the 1934
Indianapolis was 7 years old . . .
Billy Bullock's broken left hand has
healed and the local lightweight
will start swinging again shortly.
If Ivan Nedomatsky, Maryland's
recent gift to professional fighting,
goes anywhere in the ring, he
probably will be thegfirst college
graduate to have done so. . . . Bob
Pastor, Norment Quarles, Steve
Hamas and the others you can
mention didn’t finish their school
ing, while Fidel La Barba, former
world flyweight champion, was a
pro when he was in college. . . .
Ivan is slated to graduate in June
and is a 3-1 favorite to do so.
Ranked as one of the tragedies
of the boxing game is the recent
case of jaundice which knocked
Ken Overlin out of a scrap with
Freddy Steele for the world middle
weight crown. . . . Yet Ken has
experienced the same sort of luck
on the Pacific Coast twice before.
. . . Four years ago he was booked
out there for a series of scraps and
broke his right hand in training.
. . . Two years ago, on his way to a
bout with Fred Apostoli, Ken
stopped off for an argument with
Georgie Black, in Milwaukee, and
tore a leg ligament . . . and now
he’s in a hospital out there and
won’t be able to fight for four
months—if then.
Bat Woodman, former sailor
boxer now a local Boxing Com
mission inspector, is employed as a
chief rigger at the Navy Yard. . , .
Irish Johnny Conroy, best remem
bered here for his two bloody
battles with Billy Vincent, Navy
welterweight champion, at Sport
land Arena, now is working as a
pressman in a local print shop,
under his correct handle, Benjamin
Johns.
Tournament time is closing
in on the amateur golfing
crowd around Washington.
With entries for the Wood
mont Country Club affair next week
to close Friday night with the club
Golf Committee, the amateurs who
aspire to ownership of the bright and
shiny replicas of the Taft and Sher
man trophies at Chevy Chase have
less than a week to get their names
in to the Chevy Chase Golf Commit
tee, for entries for the tourney close
Monday night. As soon as pairings
are made, identification disks will be
sent to all contestants.
There is no entry fee for the Wood
mont affair, but a charge of five bucks
will be levied against all guests in
the Chevy Chase tourney, in addition
to the handicap restriction of 14 or
less.
QLD Jupe Pluvius, the best shot
maker of them all, is batting
.500 in the business of shutting oil
major tournaments around Washing
ton.
Already he has caused post
ponement for a week of the
competition for the Keefer Cup
at Chevy Chase, and if he sends
along more of his wet and
soppy offerings today and to
morrow he may force putting
off the P. G. A. sectional quali
fication rounds at Indian Spring
tomorrow.
The Keefer cup tournament will
be played next Wednesday and Thurs
day, with the original pairings and
starting times. It was postponed
when Mrs. Bishop Hill, golf chairman
at Chevy Chase, advised Mrs. K. D.
Giles, tournament chairman for the
Women's District Golf Association,
that the course would be too soggy
for such an important affair.
rJ'HE big laugh on the P. G. A sec
tional affair—if it is held tomor
row—will be when the 35 or so pros
start playing Summer rules through
those fairways. They are certain to
be soft, and the ball will get prac
tically no run from the tee, but that
isn't all.
Most of the lads have been
teeing the ball up. using Win
ter rules, for six months, and
for most of ’em playing the ball
where it lies will be new stuff.
And in an important tournament,
too. Of course they'll make some
local rule about a buried ball, but
i even at best it will be tough slug
ging. with the long hitters having a
decided edge.
I Pairings will be made at the tee.
i and if Mel Shorey and Leo Walper
retain the keen scoring edge they
showed in a little informal match at
Washington yesterday, they’ll grab
two of those three places. Shorey,
putting like a wizard, waltzed around
the rain-soaked course in 67 wallops,
while Walper was only a shot behind
at 68. Mel missed a couple of short
putts on the first nine, notably at the
fourth, where his second shot left him
only a 3-footer for an eagle, which
he missed, but his putter turned white
hot over the second nine, which he
played in 32 after getting out in 35.
He canned lengthy putts on the tenth,
twelfth and sixteenth, all for birdies,
| and played the rest of the holes in
; par.
IARRUPING LEO, out in 32, spoiled
his score by a 6 on the par 4
twelfth hole, where he hooked his tee
shot out of bounds. A couple of scores
NO 7 1
‘
like that tomorrow at Indian Spring
and the rest of the field will be trying
to catch Shorey and Walper.
"We'll start the tournament unless
it's raining hard at starting time," says
George Diffenbaugh, Middle Atlantic
P. G. A. president and District open
champion. Which means that if the
tournament actually starts it will be
finished. Male golfers, and particu
larly the pros, have a habit of thumb
ing their noses at Jupe Pluve.
“That old guv won't stop us
unless it’s raining cats and dogs
at starting time and the course
is unplayable," says George.
rJ’’HE boys at East Potomac Park are
worried lest Ol’ Man River, run
ning wild out of his banks, deposits, a
3-inch film of clay and mud over
the golf course, as it did in March of
1936. "It certainly was a mess." said
Shorey, "and while it mightn't be as
bad this time as it was then it is sure
to be plenty bad. It’ll set us bark a
good while if it gets as bad as that
because we’re right on the threshold
of the golf season."
They are also worried at Fairlawn,
in Anacostia Park, where water cov
ered the lower holes day before yes
terday, receded and then came back.
But they don’t get the full sweep of
the Potomac at Anacostia as they do
at East Potomac.

CAPITAL SCHOOLS
IN BIG TERP MEET
46 Teams Will Send Over
400 Athletes to College
Park Saturday.
THE first direct comparison of
the strength of local scholastic
track teams will be afforded
schoolboy fans Saturday, when

velt vie in the interscholastic divi
sion events in the University of
Maryland’s twentieth annual field day
at Byrd Stadium, College Park.
with the local public high school
championship meet slated for May
21, scholastic sports followers are
anxious to obtain a line on the rela
tive merit of their clubs, which thus
far have seen little action.
Forty-six schools 39 of which are
in Maryland, have entered more than
400 athletes in the meet, which will
consist of 22 scholastic track and
field events. Thirteen of these will
be open events, with eight being closed
to county high schools within the
State and a mile relay race for mem

Would Let Them Capitalize
on Skill in Every Way
Except Teaching.
BY W. R. McCALLUM.
PROSELYTING in golf Is some
thing you don't hear much
about. You hear plenty of
conversation about subsidizing
foot ball players and other “amateur” ]
athletes, but when it comes to ama
teur golfers accepting money for their j
skill at the game, or other little emo
luments, you don’t hear much about It,
even though it’s done.
But if William W. Hinshaw, Fred
McLeod’s playmate at Columbia, had
his way, amateur golfers wno can't
afford to play the tournament circuit
would be allowed to capitalize on their
skill and remain amateurs. As the
situation now stands. Hinshaw says,
the amateur game is too snooty for its
own good. Many fine amateurs can
not stand the financial gaff, he says,
and they are forbidden by the ama
teur code from accepting money.
“It is my belief,” he says, “that it
would greatly aid in building up the
game if amateurs were allowed to play
for prize money and allowed to work
for a golf merchant, write newspaper
articles on golf or do anything eke
lucrative 'excepting to teach golf
technique for money).”
Should Be Called Artists.
F ALL other things except sports
a professional is a teacher who
teaches for pay, but whatever builds
up the golf game helps the profession
als, since it gives them work. Great
golfers should be called 'artists’ or
'experts,' regardless of whether they
are amateurs or professionals. The
fact is that almost all fine golfers
would remain amateurs all their lives
wfere it possible to do so and still play
for prize money. As it is, a young
player of exceptional ability and little
money has no chance in the world
to display his skill unless he becomes
a professional. The result is that our
supply of professionals is overstocked,
while our touring golfers all have to
bear what is virtually a stigma—the
name of being a professional.
"Look, for example, at two of our
very great golfers—Bobby Jones and
Lawson Little. It became both neces
sary and profitable for Bobby Jones
to become a golf writer, and also a
moving picture golfer. His great skill
forced him into these paths of mak
ing money. His reputation as a club
designer forced his connection with
a sports manufacturing concern.
Forcing him to become a profes
sional took away the public interest
in the national amateur tournament.
Finally Lawson Little made a 'kill
ing,' but he has not the same public
favor that has Jones, even though he
has a wonderful game. Both Jones
and Little should be playing in the
national amateur every season.''
All of which sounds like a reason
able view. Wonder what the U. S.
G. A. would think about it.
Club Lists Tourneys.
SERIES of golf affairs starting
Sunday and running through
September 12 has been announced
by the Capital Golf and Country
Club, formerly the Bannockburn Golf
Club. Featured is a team match.
Gehrig
(Continued From Fourteenth Page )
tive game record, but a couple of
years ago the Yanks played an exhi
bition game in Norfolk, Va. A wild,
fast-ball pitcher struck Gehrig in the
head. An ambulance siren shrieked.
There were visions of wlute-elad
nurses moving and doctors searching
for a skull fracture.
The following day the Yanks played
in Washington. Nobody expected
Gehrig to be on hand. Nearly every
body except the New York Club at
taches probably thought Lou still was
in the hospital. But there he was at
first base, and the first three times
he came to bat Gehrig banged out
successive triples. It aras another
record—almost. Dark clouds overhead
swept the mark from his long list by
unleashing a torrent of rain before the
fifth inning and the game was not
completed.
Babe Criticized Him.
J^UTH last Winter criticized him for
playing in bandages and predicted
his iron-man record would hasten the
end of his playing career. Gehrig de
fended himself by insisting he is not
playing for the sake of his record.
He likes to play bail.
The history of the stalwart Ger
man-American giant bears him out.
Veteran Yankee scribes tell the story
of Gehrig, back in 1925, asking to be
sent back to the minors. "I want
to play bali,'’ he told Huggins. At
the time Pipp seemed ready to go on
and on, and Gehrig was rusting and
fretting on the bench. "I go crazy
on the bench,” he was quoted, and
apparently this would still hold.
How much longer will he last? No
one can say. The odds against him
mount with every performance. Prac
tice throws, flies, liners fly all around
every day. Base runners' spikes flash
and crunch inches from his feet.
Pitchers knock him down with fast
balls to drive him away from the
