$50 Begin Play Friday In St. Paul Open
Keller Open Has international
Flavor; Manero Says Hagen
Will Be Strong

st. Paul, July 23.-R)-A host of
professional and amateur golfers from
several countries gathered here for
final practice rounds and gave the st.
Paul $4,000 open tournament starting
Friday, an international tingle.
France, Germany, England and the
Philippines were represented along
with the United States and Canada.
Harry Cooper. Chicago professional,
who won the championship here last
year, carded a 70 in a practice session,
and termed the Keller cours a bit
more tricky" than in 1880.
Tony Manero, last years runner-up,
shot a 76 as did Morton Smith, un-
attached, who finished third in 1880.
Rounds of II were turned in by Ed
Dudley, Wilmington, Del, and Lew
Waldron, Celina, o.
The international stars on hand for
the opening Friday include Percy
Alliss, Berlin; Audrey Boomer,
France; Augusta Boyer, France: Les
lie Cotton, England; and Larry
Monies, Philippines. .
There will be 10 holes of medal
play Friday and Saturday with the
final SO holes Sunday for the so low
qualifiers among the 100 contestants
Tony Manero believes Walter Ha-
gen will be the entry who has to be
watched. Mareno finished second to
Cooper last year and thinks he will
be near the top when the score are
posted at the finish.

FRENCH AND BRITISH DAVIS CUP
STARS TO BEGIN MATCH FRIDAY
Defenders Of World Tennis
Trophy Are Favorites to Re-
tain Their Honors

Paris, July 23.-F1-France's tennis
warriors defend the Davis Cup Fri
day against a new team of challeng-
ers.
The British team which reached
the challenge round by upsetting the
perennial finalists, the United States,
is to open its series against a weak
ened and somewhat doubtful set of
French defenders at Auteuil.
France is the favorite. Illness has
made Rene Lacsote a non-playing
captain of the French team this year.
Henri Cochet also has been i'll while
Jean Borotra has been complaining
recently he is not in his best form.
Expert observers fail to find enough
weakness in the French team to make
it a probable victim of the English
men.
The English team of H. w. Bunny
Austin, Fred Perry and George P.
Hughes, undoubtedly is strong, but
the consensus is that it was the SUI
perior experience Of this trio rather
than their greater skill that enabled
them to conquer the Americans in
the interzone final.

LEAD WILL BE AT STAKE WHEN
MILLER AND SAINT MINES MEET
SPORT SLANTS

The next big golfing party Of ma
tional moment is the amateur cham
pionship, to be contested over the fine
course of the Beverly Country club,
Chicago, and it's very likely to be as
wide open an affair as the open
championship at Toledo
If the returns at Inverness mean
anything, one of the outstanding
threats to carry off the last of the
Jones prizes will be Thomas Phillip
Perkins, the quiet bespectacled Eng
lishman who came to this country
two years ago to make his living and
play golf.
T. Phillip finished with the nota-
BILE count of 297 in the open, only five
strokes back of Burke and Won Elm.
He was far and away the leading
amateur. besides being 10 strokes bet
ter than any of the visiting British
professionals.
By many competent critics, Perkins
is regarded as the finest amateur
SHOEMAKER in America at the present
time. At Chicago, he may find the
up-and-coming youngsters the tough
est hurdles to clear, especially in the
first two rounds of 10 hole COMPETE
ton where most anything can and
does happen. Johnny Lehman of
Chicago eliminated Perkins last year
at Merton in the first round.
Charley Seaver, the big, blond boy
from Los Angeles, now a Stanford
undergraduate, and the equally big.
robust William Lawson Little, Jr.. of
San Francisco, will be two of the
youngsters worth watching at Beverly
in September. Seaver went to the
semi-finals last year. Little disposed
of the veteran DR.. Willing and lost
to Gene Thomas, finalist against
Jones.
Among the casts younger set,
Maurice Mccarthy, Jr, a bulldog of
a scrapper, has the game as well as
the spirit to carry him quite a dis
lance. Mccarthy scored a hole-in
one and went 10 extra holes to beat
George Won Elm in the second round
Of the 1880 tournament.

POLO

ZULU
The sensational growth of polo in
the United States within the past few
years shows no signs of slackening
during a period that has hit other
branches of athletic activity.
The galloping game is one of the
oldest of known sports, going back to
the times when they used a stylus to
mark up the scores, but 1t has caught
the popular American fancy only In
recent years, beyond some OF the
more cloistered eastern confines.
The University of Arizona boys
went home after their round trip to
New York with renewed zeal for push
ing polo's development in the far west
among the collegians.
Chicago has witnessed its first in.
tefnational play, featuring the Argen.
tines. The Black Hills polo associa-
ton has just been organized tt
promote competition in South Dakota
and Nebraska, where the army out.
posts help to stimulate interest.
Meanwhile, the eastern sectors art
warming up for the high-goal com.
petition that will find nearly al o.
the .top-ranking American horsemer
in action, led by the boss mallet'
wielder OF them all, Tommy Hitch
cock.

CHARLIE RETZLAFF
ONE OF THREE BEST
AMONG YOUNGSTERS
Steve Hamas, of Penn State,
and Stanley Poreda, New
Jersey, Rated High
ALL ARE DEADLY PUNCHERS
Sharkey, Loughran, and
SchmeIing Expected to Be
Through in Three Years
ALL ARE DEADLY PUNCHERS

New York, July 21.-P)-1n the
Drawn. speed, and seeking power of
three young heavyweights. the cream
of the rising crop, rest the fight pro-
meters dreams of the million dollar
gates of the future.
From widely separated parts of the
nation, from entirely dissimilar walks
of life, the three youngsters have
risen along separate paths, at dill
ferent rates of speed, until they stand
out today as the three heavyweight
hopes for the future.
They are Charley Retzlaff, from
Leonard, N. D, Stanley Poreda, Union
City, N. j., and Steve Hamas, late OF
the Pacific coast and Pennsylvania
State university.
All have one thing in cdtnmon-un-
common punching ability. OF the
three, Poreda, a former piano sales
man, is the farthest advanced. a
woodworking, boxing and punch
ing machine ready to step in today
against the top line heavyweights.
He. has been schooled slowly and
properly by Joe Jeanette, once the
negro scourge of the heavyweightS.
Is Smart and Clever
He is smart and clever, a 190-
FOUNDER, and he hits with trip ham,
mer force, short and devastating
from the right side. He has the best
left jab of the three. Retzlaff and
Hamas, the former a worker in the
wheat fields Of the midwest, the lat
ter a great football player and inter
collegiate boxing star at Penn State
are strictly punchers but OF great
promise.
Retzlaff, tall, a bit slender, but
tremendously strong and wiry at 49,
pounds, is the deadliest two-handec
puncher of the three.
He has moved down the second
and third lines of the heavyweights
some with left hooks, some with
right crosses.
He still can learn a great deal abou'
boxing and he needs polish. But a
the moment he is capable of punch
ing with any man in the heavyweight
division. He is the outstanding an
swer to the promoters cry for q hit
ter, a one punch k~nocker-out.
Hamas Least Experienced
Hamas, least experienced profes
sionally of the three but splendid!
tutored by the veteran Charlie Har'
vey, may come on to be the best o
the trio. He is a crowding warrior
scaling 1877 pounds, a short left hook
ing puncher, cool, deadly and a grea
finisher.
He blasted out AL Morrow in twt
rounds in his Madison Square Gardel
debut and knocked out Ted Sandwin;
in two rounds on the same metropolis
tan card that introduced Retzlaff Il
New York's faithful.
Retzlaff knocked out Ralph Fic'
ucello in two rounds so they finished
for the night about even.
Three years at the most will &C
count for the fistic careers of Jacl
Sharkey, Tommy Loughran, an
probably Max %Schmeling. But these
other three-Retzlaff, Poreda ans
Hamas-are the parlay of youth fol
the future. One of the them some
time should be a heavyweight cham
pion Of the world

Four-Came Series Probably Will
Send st. Paul Far Down
or Flying Away

Chicago. July 23.-(P-Minneapolis
and st. Paul fans Thursday sat down
to their best baseball dish of the
seasonal series between the Saints
and Millers, with the leadership of
the American Association the piece
de resistance.
The Millers were in third place,
one-half a game behind Louisville
and six games behind st. Paul. and
the four-game series probably will
either send the Saints bounding away
to a lower lead, or cut them down to
where the Colonies or Millers can
knock them ove the next time they
meet.
With the exception of first place,
the battle for positions is so close
almost any team outside of Toledo
can Jump as high as two notcheS by
winning a single game.
Columbus took a parting swipe at
Kansas City Wednesday in the only
game of the day. The Led Birds
backed up an 8 to 5 decision. The
score by innings:
