DETROIT, July 14.-If opin-

Liska's deceptive delivery puts

Burke, who has loads Of stuff

Without giving him any the

it Is nevertheless timely to say
that arbiter Brick Campbell has
failed to click this season.

Even the usually even-tempered
Roy Spencer, who generally has

BY JOE HOLMAN

DETROIT, July 14.-Art Shires
may be substituted for Capt. Joe
Judge at first base any day now.
Manager Walter johnson ad,
mitted as much today.
Although Judge is playing good
ball, johnson figures that Shire's
drive and hustle will fit in well
with his teams championship
hopes.
"T'm not saying I'll use
Shires at first base tomorrow
or the next day." Sir Walter
confessed this morning.
"At the same time I'm not
overlooking any bets. And, un-
less we get going shortly, Art
will be back on the job"
Shires, a fighter from start to
finish, is awaiting eagerly his
chance to break into the lineup
And, barring the unexpected,
he will show regularly within the
next several days.
Shires, by the way. is establish
ing himself as a standout pinch

When Whataman singled over

Manush's sincerity was tested

this exercise, he was excused for

Walter Johnson's ace of aces,

Hadley, who has been returned

NpORTORIAL
By KIRK Miller

With the 1880 baseball season
just about at its halfway mark,
the Washington Club is far off
the red and well into the blue
figures.
Which is by way of saying
that whether or not the Griff-
men win the American League
pennant, the stockholders will
get good, fat dividends. The
club has made all 1880 expenses
already and is beginning to eSti-
mate its profits, which will be
bounded, Of course, by the size
Of the gate receipts from now
on, which are certain to be
huce, because the club is already
sure to finish in the first divi-
Sior-barring only a most ull-
foreSeen and calamitouS col
lapse of the team.
Whereas only Philadelphia
and New York were anything
near in such a healthy financial
condition a year ago as those
two clubs are today, money is
being made hand over fist here
in Washington this baseball sea-
son of 1880, as well as in Cleye-
land and Detroit. In fact, only
two clubs of the loops have been
up against it for patronage this
season, st. Louis and Boston,
compared with six clubs taking
it on the chin a year ago.
Which brings to mind the
fact that the majors recently
held a meeting in Chicago to
devise ways and means Of max
ing larger profits through Sc
curing players out Of the minors
at a cheaper figure and in
cidentally causing financial sui
eide to the smaller minor league
clubs, which are the cradle Of
professional ball.
Roger Pippen, my colleague
on The News in Baltimore, who
understands the minor league
situation far better than do ],
expressed the minor-major Situ-
alton fairly and squarely. what
with having stood by and
watched Jack Dunn send the

Pippen:
efforts Of the American
and National Leagues to force
the universal draft down the
thrOats of the minors ut this
time is like kicking q man
in the face when he is on his
knees.
Few, If any, minor league
clubs are able to exist solely
through the money they take
in at the gate. They must
develop players and sell them
ut the highest prices possible.
'If robbed Of this privilege,
and If clubbed into accepting .
draft wherein the majors can
step in and grab men like Lefty
Grove for q stipulated sum, the
minor teams will never have
the opportunity Of making any
real money.
"The big league owners are
lying when they yell from the
hOuSetOps that they are taking
this step solely to protect the
player and to enable him to
advance in his profession.
That's merely the cloak be-
hind which they are hiding as
they seek, with . club and
strong right arm, to get COM
plete control Of the player Situ-
alton throughout the country.
"NO real baseball star has
ever been kept in the minors
because of the modified draft
or no draft at all.
Minor league owners are
always glad to sell, but they
want to sell at their price. The
majors, by their latest ulti-
matum, simply want to get all
the stars and at their own
price.

have the necessary nerve, they
can accept the challenge of the
majors and beat them.

GAME EXALTS
BOBBY To
CREST

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, July IA.
In the cold, sane light of a new
day, some 80 hours after the de-
nouement surrounding the close
Of the National Open champion.
ship, there would seem to be
nothing for it this morning but
to admit that golf is likely to
know no lasting competitive equal
ity for at least five years, unless
Bobby Jones retires out Of sheer
boredom. Golf was intended to
make all men humble. but all it
apparently has succeeded in do
ing is to make one man exalted.
At this belated hour Jones, the
perennial champion, had left
town and the scene Of his great
est Of triumphs on Saturday.
But this was about all he did
leave. He took everything and
everybody in his second consecu"
tive open championship with his
287 for 72 holes at Interlachen.
and the feeling now is that he
will continue to do much the
same until the game knows him
no more.
The victory, made possible by
a stunning 68 in the third round
on Saturday morning while most
and, in fact, nearly all Of the
professionals were cracking wide
apart, simply added another
pearl to the competitive necklace
he Is assembling this year. He
WON the British amateur at st.
Andrews. He won the British
open at Hoylake. Then he came
back here and won the American
open.

inevitable?
The Washington times., 1930-07-14

Jones wants the four cham
pionshipS because the perform
ance would savor of conquesting
the impossible and he has been
doing this so long that it has
become something Of a fixed
habit.
Anyhow, barring the unfore-
seen, he probably will get what
he wants this time since he now
is greater than ever, while it is
admitted that those who could
take issue with him in amateur
golf are becoming fewer and
funnier, even as it is with the pro-
fessionals.
1t is more than significant Of
Jones monopoly here that only
three amateurS-Jamieson, in the
1925 British event; George Won
Elm, in the American final Of the
same year, and Johnny Goodman,
last September-have been good
enough or lucky even, as the
case may be, to beat Jones.
The amateur field at that is
stronger than ever today. 1t
simply isn't strong enough to
compete successfully against the
supernatural. Harrison Johnston,
the current champion, is one Of
the few who has real chance
against Jones any time he starts.
But this chance always
must be predicated upon the
hope that Jones viii not be
at the pinnacle as he enters
any given match and so will
be merely a great golfer, In
stead Of an unbeatable one.
It is this that also will give
Tolley, Won Elm, Moe, Willing,
SweetSer, Voigt, Mccarthy, Per
kins, Goodman and others that
l-to-2 chance against Jones at
Merton. If it isn't so, I'm afraid
this chance might become more
like l to 10.
ATLANTA, Ga, July 14.-Bobby
Jones the victor is coming home
today to an ovation fit for a con-
quering hero.
Jones home town has seen
fit to declare o legal holiday
in order to bid the golf wizard
welcome on his arrival aboard
the special car which brought
him and his party from Mimi
eapOliS.
There will be a parade with
cheering crowds. And there will be
a reunion between Jones and his
small son and daughter.
When the welcome is over the
champion will take a rest before
taking up his legal work, again, he
revealed in Chicago yesterday.
Jones admitted to interviewers he
was tired from the strain OF tour
namentS and wants a rest. -
Besides the cup he retained by
winning the American open Sat

the trophies he took in the .Bri
tish open and British amateur.
