Typothetae Bowling League drew
up to within two percentage
points of the leaders by winning
the odd game from Maurice joyce
Engravers while Washington Ty-
pographers were dropping a pair
to the fast-flying H-K Advertising

Frank Mischou, brilliant an
chorman of National Capital
Press, turned in a splendid set Of
406, which is second high individ-
ual set for the season.
Potomac Electrotypers gained
a tie for the runner-up position by

six games rolled. Big Print Shop

as a well turned performance.

good moments, with some not so

Miss Collett has lost twice to

encounter the American cham.
pion did well and Miss Wethered
had to play golf which would
have beaten practically all of the
good British male amateurs, to
win these games.
It is unfortunate that Miss
Collett never has had an oppor-
tunity and probably never will
have one, of meeting Miss
Wethered in America.
I believe, however, that if an
international team match is
arranged Miss Wethered will be
persuaded to come out of retire

The Washington times., 1930-03-24

I am now congratulating myself
because / took the trouble last
spring of going from Leeds to St.
Andrews to see Miss Wethered
play Miss Glenna Collett in the
36-hole final match for the Brit
ish practically, the world's)
championship.
That was the finest golf match
I have ever seen. Since that day
I have regarded Miss Wethered
as the most accurate player-man
or woman-I have seen on the
links! She makes fewer mis-
takes than any other golfer. It
was because of the perfection Of
her game that she overcame a
big lead Miss Collett ran up on
the first nine holes, and finally
won the match and the cham
pionship.
Miss Wethered retired from
competitive golf once before but,
after two years. decided to return
to the game. But it is unlikely
that she will withdraw this year
and at some later date decide to
try her luck again. She un-
doubtedly is through although,
with the possibility of American
women golfers invading England
this year, there is no one as well
suited TO head British team as
Miss Wethered. It would be un-
fortunate for the old country If
she did not consent to take part
in such an international match.
Miss COllett certainly DEM
Onstrated her good sports
manShip over q period Of
years by going to England
time and again to contest
with the hest of the British
women golfers on their own
ground.
When she went to the finals at
st. Andrews and came within the
distance of a missed putt or so
of beating the invincible Miss
Wethered, she did as much to
establish the quality of American
women's golf, as Hagen has done
in England for American profes-
sional golf and Jones for Ameri-
can amateur golf.
The match between Miss Col
lett and Miss Wethered certainly
brought out the fact that the
British champion was not so
vastly superior to Miss Collett as
the foreign critics and some
American writer's would like to
have us believe.
To tell the truth there was very
little difference in the play of
these two expert women. Miss
Collett drove as far as Miss Weth-
cred, played her wooden shots off
the fairway as well, and putted
with equal skill.

TIRED HIM
IN TUNNEY
MATCH
BY JACK DEMPSEY

It is my intention to go to
California next month and start
active training. The big reason
is that I want to chop some extra
weight I have picked UP through
almost a year of ring inactivity
The second reason is that I
will wants to get into such con
dition so that if Schmeling Oh
Camera should mop up the
American heavies I could be
ready by September to take on
one or the other.
If Sharkey isn't good enough
to beat back Schmeling, and II
the other active American heav
les cannot halt the K. o. rush
of Carnera, I may want to take
a whirl with one or the other
I'm all against the ida of the
championship taking a ride to
Europe.
I'm not what I used to be
mot by a whole lot. And
maybe I'm not as good as
think could be with q
month of training in April,
light training until June,
and then stiff training after
that. But I still figure 1
can sock a little, / can take
it, and in addition to all
that I don't just happen to
notice any world beaterS run
ming around loose.
If I ever go back into the ring
again. I will abandon the flat
footed style I used in the Shar
key and the second Tunney fight
Always have felt that it slowed
me up and really tired my legs
I went from nowhere in pugilism
to the championship by stepping
around on my toes. should
have stuck to that way of doing
things.
But I changed for the last two
fights. The first time I did the
flat foot stuff was in the first
round against Sharkey. 1t made
me awkward. Couldn't step
around as I did in other days
And bang. Before I could get
out Of the way, Sharkey nailed
me on the chin.
/ finally bumped off Shar.
key and figured that perhaps
the flat foot stuff wasn't so
bad after all.
Tried it against Tunney. But
not so good. He stepped around
me. My legs began to tire. In
the seventh when I flattened him
those legs were mighty weary. He
got up and did a Dan OLeary
and my legs weren't good enough
to enable me to tag him.
I figured If I had moved on
my toeS-my natural way-I per.
haps would have gone into the
seventh with good pair of legs
If I had. then Tunney never
would have been able to out
gallop me. He had a better pair
Of legs in the seventh than I did
And the same was true in the
eighth, ninth and tenth.
So I'm cured of the flat-foot
thing. I'll be on my toes If
fight again. And whether 1 fight
depends upon Sharkey's showing
against Schmeling and just how
tough this big boy Carnera gets
between now and September.

BY FRANK (BUCK) O'NEHL
SAN ANTONIO, March 24.-The
New York Giants of 1880 may
win the pennant.
They have more than an out
side chance Of turning the trick
They may finish third, certain
breaks being against them. Sec
ond place is their probable sta.
ton, for you can't lightly kick the
Chicago Cubs downstairs without
acknowledging that they are the
National League champions. The
Giants are certain TO finish In
the first three, since there are
only three powerful bali clubs in
the National League. Chicago
New York and Pittsburgh com
prise that powerful trio.
The Giants need pitching
strength, a second baseman and
strong, intelligent outfield. There
should be better than ordinary
pitching and sharp defenSa at
second base with Marshall in
stalled as the starting keystoner
- Unless something happens,
bad Outfield is going to be
costly to the Giants. So far
we have seen Giant Outfield-
erS throw to the wrong bases,
and by doing 50 actually help
the enemy runners, until we
wondered whether or not we
were observing major league
fielders or boys In the South
i ern League.
.- McGraw'S quest for wise and
active patrols would seem to be
futile. The probabilities are
that Melvin OFT, q great ball
player, wise and strong, will be
in right; Roush or Fullis will be
in center, and Leach or Fullis
s'will be in left. Johnny Mostil
may break in as an alternate,
relieving Roush when the last
named suffers one of his fire.
Quent charley horses.
The writer rather expects to
see Fullis win the left field post
from Leach. He seems to be
faster and more reSourceful.
Placing FulliS in left, of course,
is conditional upon Roush's win,
ming the post in center field.
The Giants should be far
stronger in the box this yeal
than they were last. They will
be stronger in replacements, if
nowhere else. The five regulars
I will be as last year, Carl Hub
bell, Bill Walker, Larry Benton
Fred FitzsimmonS and Joe Gene
wich.
The requirements, as the writer
sees the situation, will be Ralph
Judd, Joe Heving. Ray Lucas, LIE
Roy Parmelee and Hub Pruett
Jack Scott may find his ef
fectivenesS, but up to this time
the veteran has shown nothing
e. Carl HubbeIl and Bill
~ Walker should both have bet
ter years than they had last
@% year. Hubbell won 18 games
. and should repeat: Walker
won IA and should improve.
Fitzsimmons checked in with
is wins and is a better pitcher
than those figures would indicate.
Benton and Genewich, both dis
NAL failures in '29 are rated at
IS games each. These hurlers
should win about 80 games.
There is no reason pitchers of
the ability of Parmelee, Lucas,
Judd, Heving and Pruett should
not take care Of 20 games among
them. That would give the
Giants 103 ball games, and 1O3
games might well win the penant.
It would more than put the Cubs
to the acid test.
