BOSTON WOOL

Boston. Mass. Feb. 25.-R-Actual
trading in wool market is q little
slower than last week. Bids on 64's
and finer western grown woods are
about as numerous but they are not
being accepted as freely as during
the previous several weeks. There is
growing confidence in the strength
in the statistical position OF the fine
domestic woods and as a consequence
holders Of these woods are offering
stronger resistance to pressure for
lower prices and occasionally they
close a sale at slightly higher figures
than were realized on previous sales
of similar lines.

By United Press
PASADENA, Dec. 1.-TWO young
professionals today led a field of
present and past champions in the
opening matches of the Pasadena
$4,000 open golf championship.
Ralph Gulfahl, Detroit, scored
35-34-69 to tie with Ray Mangrum,
Los Angeles, with a score of 1875
SO at the end of the first eighteen
holes Friday.
Behind them struggled the great
of golfdom, unable to keep pace.
Among those who trailed, but in an
excellent position to contest for the
lead today, were George Won Elm
and Macdonald Smith, Willie Cog
gin, San Francisco and Jack Gaines,
Glendale, Cal.
Each had 70, with Won Elm nd
Smith exhibiting the best golf. The
former, runner-up in the national
open championship, was out in So,
but came back in 81 for one under
par. Smith, winner of two Los
Angeles opens and a favorite in this,
scored IS on each nine.
Witty Cox, Brooklyn, who came
through to win $4,000 at San Fran
cisco last week, made the opening
round in II, equalled by Al thinner
man, Portlnd; Joe Ear, st. Louis,
and Mortie Dutra, Long Beach.
Those with TBS included Craig
Wood, Hollywood, winner of the first
Pasadena open, Eddie Loos, Harry
Cooper, Abe Espinosa, Sid Harmon,
and Dave Matrin and Bill Jelliff,
Among those with 1875 were Walter
Hagen, Billie Burke and Johnny
Dawson.

rade. Starnes was best for the
losers, who trailed 10 to 4 at the
half.
Cicero turned in an impressive
q to IL decision over Manual in the
other local battle. The south siders
showed improved floor work. but
were unable to conenct for points.
Manual was behind, Z to 4 at half
time, and tied the count 1910 at
the three-quartrs mark, but the
lanky invaders bombarded the hoop
from long range to gain the decision
in the final period. VoSs ara

THE Colonel doesn't want to
Il talk to you about these con-
tracts. He'd rather talk to you
about his sinus trouble. 1t seems
to pain him less I go to the
doctor four times week, how often
to you go?"
The Colonel denies that he told
newspaper men out west that he
was gong to cut Ruth's salary . E. i.
"All I said was that no ball player
ever will be worth $4,000 again"
well, does that mean" g.
The Colonel threw up both hands
:. Don't ask me. I don't want
to talk about it,"
Always eager to be of charitable
service, I have never heSitated to
help spend the Colonels money for
him OH baseball salaries, and sug-
geSt that it might be a sporting
gesture to renew Ruth'S contract at
the old figure, in spite of his wan
ing ability, this as a sort of public
recognition of the Slugger's tremen-
dous achievements of the past.
The Colonel answers me by peer
ing out the window and twiddling
his thumbs. 1t may be that he is
hard of hearing. I suspect Ruth is
in for a slash. If he gets a $40, 900
contract if probably will be high.
The Colonel has a difficult problem
on his hands. For years Ruth has
more or less set the standard of
the Yankee pay roll, and as con-
sequence some very ordinary ball
players have been pulling down big
dough.

ID UTH has definitely begun to
IN fade. He is still the incom-
parable BAN but his future is back
in the records Of yesterday. Gehrig
was a better ball player than Ruth
last year, and from now on he
ought to become increasingly better.
