BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-Torn by
inner dissension which robbed them
of their captain, pitcher and utility
outfielder, the Pittsburgh Pirates
held the center of the baseball stage
the past week-on the diamond and
off.
They managed to hold their first
place position in the National League
race, although the Cardinals and
Reds pressed at their heels. st.
Louis is now in a position where 1t
can forge into the lead however and
this week play is on the home field.
The week itself saw little changes
in the major league races.
In the American, the Yanks did
slump, but not enough to relinquish
a big lead. Cleveland and the Ath-
letics entered the present week both
in neck and neck run for second
place, but far away from the New
York team.
In the National, Pittsburgh held
tight to the throne, but the remand
er Of the first division clubs and the
leading second division team is with

four by the Brewers.
The Brewers were able to tie that

ing first in place of Holke. Rehg

Holke and would have. retired the

southpaw, relieved Jonnard. Rehg
delivered with a single that scored
two men.

C7ISS ELIZABETH DUNN is
I'M working every day for her
~ trip to Chicago next week,
where she. will take part in the
Western Womens Golf Association
tournament.
Last month, when she walked off
with the title of the Indiana
Women's Golf Association, at the
Indianapolis Country Club, and de-
feated two Of the States best women
players, Miss Naomi Hull of Kendall
vile, the defending champion, and
also Mrs. Carl C. Gibbs of the
Country Club, Indianapolis golf fol-
lowers felt there was something
amazing about her.
Miss Dunn is not tutored golfer.
She is self-styled and individual.
Her drives are with a different form
than most women players. her iron
shots different, and her puts just
bit different from the form stand
point.
To go to the Western meet is
something Miss Dunn hoped to be
able to do.
The Indianapolis Times wrote the
western association and learned it
would be o. k. to send Miss Dunn to
cover the meet for The Times and
to play. This week she is to tell
about her preparation and what she
thinks Of entering a big meet with
the best women golfers in the
country.
Miss Dunn has played golf less
than ave years. The second year
after she started to play the game
for exercise, Miss Dunn began win
ming titles, and the first was the
championship of the South Grove
Club, women's division.
Early this year she won the two
day city tournament for women,
and capped that with the winning
of the State title.
Just what she will do in the
western is uncertain, because abil-
ity of Indiana women is unknown.
Elizabeth is q different kind Of golf
