starting roles rather than take
chances of breaking up his com.
bination.
Hadley will continue in his
role as chief relief man. And
Burke and Marberry will be used
as often as time and opportunity
will permit, leaving Crowder to
rest for awhile.
The Griffmen might have won
yesterdays opening >fracas with
the White Sox had Umpire
Owens called Bluege safe on his
roller to Jeffries, forcing West.
UmpS Owen called Ossie out,
however, completing a fast double
play for the Sox. West had
opened the inning with a line
single to center.
After this twin killing Joe
Kuhel slugged out a home run in
the lower right field stands, his
second of the game. Had Bluege
been on first Joe'S clout would
have tied the score at a and
the possibility of snatching the
game out of the fire later were
great as Pat Caraway. SoX hurler,
was on the verge of blowing up.
But Owens waved Bluege out on
that double-play and the game
was oven when Spencer grounded

That First Inning

Charlie took the mound in
the first inning and the things
that happened to him would
break your heart to read. Hits
ratified off his delivery like
hailStoneS on a copper roof
The massacre was terrible.
Down in the dugout, Walter
johnson was sorely perplexed.
He wanted to win that game
and he knew he should send in
a relief pitcher - but what
would happen to the presenta-
ton ceremonies, if he yanked
Fischer?
He let him stay in there,
despite the first inning bonn
bardment and the fireworks be-
came even more volatile in the
fourth inning. johnson walked
out to the pitchers box, just as
we have seen him do here when
his twirlerS were in trouble, and
delivered one of the few ultima
tumS afield of which he has
been guilty.
Look here, boy" said the tall
Swede, you're going to stay in
there and pitch, so you might as
well come down to earth now.
They're going to give you a
watch in the seventh inning
and I can't take you out, SO
pitch your head off and your
arm too, for all 1 care, because
this may be the last time your
home town fans will ever see
you in a Newark uniform"

$4,000, will witness the worlds
championship heavyweight battle
between Max Schmeling, German
title holder, and Young Bill Strib-
ling, Georgian contender, here

Dick Dunn, promoter of the
fight, revealed the estimates in
in declaring that success of
CIeveIand'S first heavyweight
title venture was assured.
Based on Dunn's estimates that
ticket prices will average about
$40 each, his figures for attend

Started Under Handicap

With that, the lad turned to,
and pitched pretty commend
able ball game, and it would
make a perfect story if we
could say he won it, but he
didn't. He might have won
had not the other team COM
piled so great a lead before
johnson informed the boy of
what was coming, but so many
runs were already charged up
against Newark, and the woe
couldn't be undone.
Possibly in that incident lies
the answer to the effort Fischer
is putting into his work for
johnson this year. Leading
the team in pitching, he is
certainly giving Walter every
thing, because Walter must
have had to fight hard against
his better judgment to leave
Fischer in the box back in 1928
until he could receive the watch
from the proud citizens of his
native heath.
The Washington times., 1931-06-27

Inc Dig plCcher could do no
worse than Alvin Crowder.
The gene al, incidentally, has
not been the hot weather pitcher
he has alwa.s been known to be.
Maybe the intense heat which has
accompanied the Griffs on this
Western trip is little too much
for the Southerner, or maybe he
is not yet in top condition.
Whatever it is, Alvin is not de-
livering as he should be at this
time. All of which brings up the
probable substitution of Hadley
in Crowder's starting turns in fu-
ture games.
There is only one thing about
making a switch of this kind.
1t would take an excellently de,
veloped relief hurler away from
Manager Johnson'S system, and
throw a weak man into that
spot, which would not do at all
with the pennant race as heated
as it is now.
'Tt'S a sure thing, however,
that Johnson can't keep count
ing on CrOwder, if the General
continues to hurl only fair ball.
Johnson probably will think
the matter over earnestly be-
fore doing anything drastic,
though.
He'll end " by using Mar

.SARAZEN 2 Up
ON BRITISH
GOLF FOE
H. EARL WILSON

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 81.
With the British determined to
stage a comeback from yester-
days sad downfall, the profes-
Sional golf forces of John Bull
and Uncle Sam teed off here to-
day for the last rounds of their
battle for the coveted Ryder Cup.
Gene Sarazen was 2 up on Fred
Robson, of England, at the end
of their first nine holes.
A gallery of 1000 was gathered
at the course when Billie Burke,
the American lead-off man,
walked to No. 1 tee to start the
morning, 18-hole singles round
with Archie Compston.
After Burke and Compston
came Gene Sarazen and Fred
Robson, Johnny Farrell and w.
H. Davies, Whiffy Cox and Abe
Mitchell, Capt. Walter Hagen
and Capt. Charles Whitcombe,
Denny Shute and Bert Hodson,
Al EspinoSa and Ernest Whit
combe, and Craig Wood and
Arthur HaverS.
Upon the results of tOday'S
eight singles matches depends
the possession of the Ryder
cup for another two years.
Leading 3 to l the Americans
need only four points ii win.
To retain the cup, the Brit
iSherS, as defenders, need only
to tie, and they can take the
trophy back across the pond
with six points.
Getting away to par golf,
Burke and Compston followed up
their opening drives with ap-
proaches that arched accurately
to their marks. They finished
the first with four strokes each.
Sarazen Gets Birdie
The young American and the
veteran Britisher also halved the
next two holes, finishing the first
three all even.
Gene Sarazen got away to a
good start by Smacking out a
whistling drive and scoring a
birdie on the very first hole of
his duel with Robson. The shot
gave him one up advantage.
Sarazen gave evidence he
hoped to make his match a
walk away on the next two
holes. He captured both, and
took 3 up margin.
Robson, perhaps surprised by
Sarazen's lightning start, took 6
on the par-four second, and was
one over on the third. Sarazen
was even with the card on the
last two.
The treacherous second hole
cost Davies six shots and Johnny
Farrell jumped into an immediate
lead. He lost it, however, on NO.
3, when his opponent took a par
and Farrell faltered and went one
stroke over.
Shot Through Window
Sarazen gave the gallery an
unexpected thrill on the short
fourth hole when he popped a
shot into a pop shack along the
course and then played the ball
from it's lay.
With perfect aim, Sarazen
stroked the ball off the concrete
floor of the shack, through a
wide-open window to the green
and with two puts finished the
par-three hole in a four. Robson
was unable to do any better and
they halved the hole.
Denny Shute met numerous
difficulties on the first hole,
but he finally won it from
>HOdsOn. The OhiOan first
smashed into a tree and the
ball landed deep in the uncut
rough. Then he hit into a
shallow trap. Still trying, he
lifted the ball out easily to
within eight feet of the cup
and took a four.
Mitchell gave the first hole to
Cox and was unable to regain
it on his next two tries.
Continuing his dazzling play
Sarazen scored an eagle three

CALIFORNIA
GIRL WINS
At NET.

WIMBLEDON, England. June
81 GN.S0.-Outclassing her OPP
ponent in every department Of
the game, Miss Helen Jacobs, of
Berkeley, Calf, entered the quar-
terminals of the women's singles
in the Wimbledon tennis cham
pionShips today by defeating Mrs.
L. A. Godfree, the former Kitty
McKane, 81, 60.
Miss Jacobs won all her service
games and ner brilliant forehand
drives overwhelmed the English
woman. Mrs. Godfree tried on
several occasions to lead the at
tack, but the only result was to
chalk up points for the American
girl by hitting wildly out OF the
court.
Among the 10000 persons who
witnessed the California star
battle her way to victory over
Mrs. Godfree were King George
and Queen Mary.
The gallery was treated to an
unexpected thrill after the
Jacobs -Godfree match when Miss
Mary Scriven, left-handed school
girl champion of 1929, eliminated
Joan Ridley, a seasoned cam
paigner, 6-1, Ga, in their
fourth-round match.
j. Satch, of Japan, defeated
H. G. N. Lee in the fourth round
of the mems singles, 8-6, Ga,
6-3.
Mrs. L. A. Harper, considered
by many experts the outstanding
American woman competitor in
the tournament, was eliminated
b yBetty Nuthall, the English star,
Ga, 60.
H. w. Bunny" Austin, out
standing British hope for the
mems championship, swept into
the quarter-final round by de-
feating Ian Collins, Scottish
title-hOIder, in straight sets,
6-3, 6-3, "a.
In the round of play in the
mems doubles, Sydney B. Wood
and Frank x. Shields, the Ameri-
can pair treated the gallery to
an exhibition of youth and speed
which was too much for their
older British opponents, G. Crol-
erees and CO E. Ames. Wood and
Shields won, 60, 6-1, 60.
