Grubb's Howitzer Giants Sunday
The game will get under way at
3 o'clock in Garrett Park.
The Olmsteds have gone

25 games. They just were
crowned senior champions Of the

for unlimited laurels.
They will find q worthy Op-

have had an excellent year all

may well strike terror to those
who are bold enough to face
them.
Manager Nau, of the Olmsteds,
places his hopes on Pitchers
"Knocky" Thomas and Dick Ian

It is expected that a large, en-

-Four Potomac Junior
LeUgue Teams PL1u

Only two games are scheduled
in the Potomac Junior Baseball
League Friday, but those two are
expected to afford plenty Of ex-
element. Both games are to
be played on the Monument lot
and will commence at SIS
o'clock.
On No. 4 diamond the 'Y"
Flashes will try to get back at
the Columbia Heights nine that
took the league lead away from
them last week. The Colum.
bianS continued their winning
streak in their last game by
downing the Swami Se1vice team,
So, while the Flashes, previously
indicated, lost to the Colonials,
who had up to that time held
the cellar position.
The other game, occupying dia-
mond No. l, will find the Swans
meeting the RoSSInen. The Jewel.
ers have a slight edge, having
lost only once, while the Service
team has been defeated twice.
The LionelS having forfeited
two consecutive games are auto
matically dropped from the
league. The teams stand to date
as follows:
The Washington times., 1931-08-05
MRS. Van RYN
I WINS TITLE

EASTHAMPTON, N. Y, Aug. 5.
This was moving day for Brit
ish and American women tennis
stars, who completed play here
yesterday in the annual invita-
ton at the Maidstone Club for
the William H. Woodin gold
cups.
Mrs. John Van Ryn, Philadel.
phia, wife of the Davis Cup
doubles star. won the singles final
from the British Wightman Cup
star, Mrs. Dorothy c. Shepperd-
Barron, while the doubles battle
between two English teams was
won after a hard struggle, the
combination of Miss Betty Nut
hall and Miss Phyllis Mudford,
who defeated Miss Dorothy Round
and Mrs. Eileen Bennett Whiting
stall. So. rs. 60.
Several of the high ranking
stars moved over to SOuthamp-
ton, where they will take part
in mixed doubles. Others went
on to New York to practice
for the Wightman Cup matches
at the West Side Tennis Club
at Forest Hills. Some of the
women stars will descend on
the Westchester Country Club
at Rye on Monday for the
Eastern turf court champion
ships.
Mrs. Van Ryn accomplished two
definite results in beating Mrs.
Shepperd.Baron before a large
gallery. She made up for the So,
7-5 defeat her adversary scored
here in the final round in 1929
and she probably gained for her
self a place on the American
Wightman Cup combination.
Unofficial reports were that she
will take the, singles berth of Mrs.
Marion Zinderstein Jessup who,
after being named officially, an.
nounced she will not participate
in the international matches.
There were also reports current
that Miss Marjorie Morrill,, the
nations No. 2 player, may not be
picked to play singles and that
Miss Sarah Palfrey, Bostoniaa,
may be named to the list.
The Washington times., 1931-08-05
GIANTS SLICE
CARDS. LEAD

Folks who believe in miracles
and near-miracles turned today
to the New York Giants with the
hope they might yet make a race
out of the National League pen
nant chase.
The men of McGraw defeated
the Brooklyn Robins twice yes
terday and now are seven games
behind the st. Louis Cardinals.
That's quite a lot to be behind
or ahead, whatever way one
figures, and it hardly seems likely
the Giants will ever come closer
than three or four games to the
Redbirds.
They are playing with a Grip
pied crew. Such stars as Lind
strom, OFT and Critz won't re-
turn to the lineup for a while,
and Manager McGraw is still
absent from the dug-out.
FOrty-five thousand fans, most
of them from Brooklyn. saw
FitzsimmOns win the OIA2ner,
6 to 3, largely because of a
hitting attack headed by Capt.
Travis Jackson, who got three
safeties off Clark.
Walker hurled Six-hit ball in
the 3-to-2 nightcap, with Dazzy
Vance the hurting victim. Hume
field doubled to score Jackson
with the winning run.
Barton, the recruit outfielder
from Baltimore, whacked two
homers as the Cubs won from the
Cincy Reds, 7 to 3, after taking
the first game 4 to 2. Bush
limited the Reds to seven hits in
the opener.
A tumble by Pitcher Heinie
Meme in the sixth gave st. Louis
three runs and eventually a VIC
tory over the Pirates, 7 to /.
Seven safeties was all the BUGS
could garner off Haines.
Ray Benge hurled shutout ball
up to the ninth inning, and the
Phillies conquered Boston, 3 to q.
The Braves took the second tilt,
4 to 2, with Sherdel proving fairly
effective. Chuck Klein, the
Phillies' big-Stick man, got homer
No. "a off Sherdel.
The Washington times., 1931-08-05
GOLFERS
FAR DOWN LIST

The washington representatives
in the national public links cham
pionships over the Keller course
at st. Paul will have to flash
some fancy shooting today if they
wish to qualify for the match
play rounds.
Not one of the local contingent
managed to break so in the first
18 holes yesterday. Wesley Bill
lings, non-lnember of the local
team, and Johnny Connolly scored
80 each. Connolly covered the
last nine in a blazing 81 after
taking 43 on the outward trip.
Bradley H. Burrows carded
81: Harlan will shot 81 and
Robert Burton counted SS.
A heavy wind which swept the
course in the afternoon proved Of
great annoyance to the Washing
tonians.
Arthur Sato, diminutive Japan
csc from San Francisco, led the
field with a round of u, even
par. Sato is a fish merchant.
The San Francisco team leads for
the Harding trophy with an ag-
gregate of 313, with st. Paul
having 317 for runner-up.
Bob Wingate, of Jacksonville,
Fla, and defending champion,
scored 78. Carl Kaufman, of
Pittsburgh, and three-time win
ner of the championship, was
also off form, taking 79.
The Washington times., 1931-08-05
Mcnamara Extends
Beru In Ten Rounds

NEW YORK, Aug. 5-Jackie
Kid Berg will have to show
great improvement over his pres
ent form if he expects to get that
return bout with Tony Canzoneri
for the lightweight champion
ship in the fall.
In their last engagement in
Chicago the Brooklyn Italian
slowed the Englishman away in
three rounds.
Last night Berg met Jimmy Nc
Namara, of Greenwich Village, in
the 10-round final at the Queens
boro Stadium and received the YER
dict after a hard battle. McNa-
mara fought the entire distance
practically without the service of
his right hand. But using his left
alone. Jimmy extended Berg to
the utmost.
The Washington times., 1931-08-05
he has the pitchers and hitters
now to make this unnecessary.

Yes. I will say that the stolen
base is of considerable value, re
gardless of the figures of .4ny par.
ticular team. It is particularly
valuable to a club which is short
of long-distance hitters. The or.
binary single will bring in a run
from second base, and man who
steals second really turns q sin
gle, a pass, an error, or whatever
put him on first, into the eqViva'
lent of a two-bagger.
Thrills Spectators
The steal, too, is valuable in
making the game more attractive,
and that is enough to stamp it
as quite worth while. It is Z play
requiring speed, dash and agility
as well as fairly expert marks
manship by the catcher. and it
thrills the crowd from the time
the runner makes his break ircm
one base until he comes to stop
at the next.
So I say that it is worth a lot
sometimes to win games and
other times to add to their at
tractivenesS. It is a great play
for some clubs. but others do not
need it.

serve. Use this advantage to
the utmost. To drop one single
service game may mean losing
the set. Do not Unfortunately
bang your service With the hope
of getting an ace. That is not
the meaning of service. It is
best to play your service as
strongly as possible-so as to
start the play with as much
advantage as can be gained.
Choose Shot
At the time of service choose
your next Shot-no matter
where your opponents return
may come. There are three
plays following service: Ito
the forehand. 2.-To the back
hand. 3-Follow serve to the
net.
The play to opponents fore
hand will pull him away
from the backhand corner and
give you a chance to attack it
on the next play, thus giving
you an opportunity of follow
ing to the net for the volley.
The play to. opponents back
hand may possibly give the
chance to start the net attack
Immediately. To follow your
service to the net at once re.
quires careful Judgment of how
your opponent will return your
service. MANY players take
their biggest chances and play
their strongest shots on return
of service, and consequently it
is dangerous to go into the net
Immediately.
Study Opponent
Study your opponents habits
of return Of service and conduct
yourself accordingly. Many
times a concentrated net attack
off your service will throw your
opponent off his game and
give you the winning stride,
but you must understand when
the opportunity for such an
attack has arrived.
Do not forget that a blind net
rusher is an easy target for cal
culating, cool, sharp shooter,
whose ground strokes are steady
and sure.
In contrast to this-it is
often advisable to use the
strong service to make oppon-
ent play a defensive stroke.

to start your net attack on
your first shot after service.

strength. In other words, it
Immediately begins to resist
your whole action, which is ex-
actly what you want. This
gathering of resisting right leg
strength is the building up of
the fulcrum required for the
swinging action. You need
something to swing from-just
as a stone whirling on the end
Of a string swings from the end
of your fingers. Hence, we see
that you swing from" and not
"at." You swing off your full
crum, not at the ball especially.
Your objective is to swing; the
objective of the swing is to dis
patch the ball. You must get
these things in their proper or
der for without it good golfing
sense will be lacking.
