Bill Roper is generally credited with saying "the team that won't be beaten can't be beaten" The crack has become as we'll worn as tho one about "when you carry an umbrella 1t never rains" But there's more than az rain of truth in 1t at that.
 Some of the most inspiring triumphs fin sports have been scored by fair to mediocre teams with the will to win. Those pen- nant winning Braves of IS years ago had such a team. Tho club was in last place July 1, but 1t lot only won the pennant but licked the great 1914 Athletics four straight. And now look at tho Cincinnati Reds!
 They're on Fire
 The Reds are ablaze with the ambition to win. They have breathed the hot spark of invin- cibility and there is no telling how far they'll go with 1t. A pennant? Well, on some days you have to think they'll win 1t.
 It is q team that has begun to believe 1t shouldn't lose. Every player on the team is convinced the Reds are destined to win. It with the idea of It's own great ness. Mediocre pitchers become mighty moundsmen. Puny hitters acquire tho illusion that all pitch CTS are their cousins. What is only q fair infeid on paper be- comes q marvellous defensive ma chine on the field
 Ready to Fight
 The Reds are ready to fight. They have shown 1t, coming Into the bases with spikes flying. They are actually sore at teams that take the lead in q game with them. The players are not only willing but anxious to toss their best Sun day punches at their opponents.
 The team Is taking every ad- vantage 1t can get. Leo Durocher, castoff Yankee shortstop. came hurtling into second base the other day, adopting the March, mont Schwartz off-tnckle tech nique. When he failed to dislodge the ball from Shortstop Dick Bar tells hands. he hauled away and let the Pirate player have 1t on the CnlHs OI CouEbe Ho WoS ouo- pended and fined for the assault. But 1t is by such punishments that n tcam's morale Is often measured. Now the whole team takes the att titude that somebody had better get out of its way, or there's going to be trouble.

Coach Foley unquestionably will be pleased that his athletics have carried on with their scholastic work and are receiving their dip- lomas, but he will no doubt also experience tinge of regret that the performers will not return. Tomorrow's commencement will mark "fnis" to a brilliant four ' sports career of George (Speed) Goodwin, who has become one of the outstanding young athletic stars of Naugatuck during his high school career. In addition to win ming letters in football, baseball, basketball and track two seasons, Goodwin held two captaincies. He has won recognition as one of Con- necticut's fastest schoolboy run ners. GoodwIn's pal, Frank (Bub- bics) Balinsky will terminate pEac- tically as brilliantly in football, baseball and basketball and held three captaincies. He rates as one of Connecticut's best football and basketball players. Albert "Weiner" Raytkwich also won letters in four sports under Coach Foley and closes an exemplary career.
 A majority Of the athletes con- cluding their careers participated in various sports at least two sea sons, winning more than one letter. Several won their varsity "N" in two or three branches of athletics. Coach Foley will find his task of replacing the score of departing performers difficult one next year. The bulwark of his football, basket ball and track teams will be gone but newcomers will replace them. Among those who will receive their diplomas from President Charles | r. Rodcnbach of the board of edu- cation Thursday night will be:@

By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan COrrcHDOndcntl !

Chicago, June 22--OP)-It was with surprise and regret that your correspondent read that oficialfs of the national open golf tourna- ment had refused the generous of- fer of A group of mobsters to set up parl-mutuel machines on the club grounds.
 The officials, it seems to me, hnd the chance of lifetime and threw 1t down cold. On what grounds? Because gambling does not go with the polite game of golf? Hardly that, being as there is more gam bling on one Sunday at q major club than at the Kentucky derby on a good year.
 It takes no far-seeing person to see what the betting machines would mean to golf. They would work 6 three-way beneflt-clubs, players and spectators. Tho mob sters generously offered the Fresh Meadow club a slice of each days intake. This cut, or bite, would have enabled Fresh Meadow to show q profit. without turning the course into a sort of national con- vention for hot-dog vendors. walk ing stick salesmen and balloon peddlers.
 Since Jones retired, holding Q major tournament has been tanta- mount to holding the sack, or bag. The crowds have been 50 small that the gate nowhere pays for the ad- vance preparations and damages.
 The pari mutuel machines would be q great boon for the players. The first prize in the open is some- thing like $500. Maybe grand. But certainly no more than that. With the machines in operation, q prize of 20 or 90 grand could be offered. And boy, would you see some plain and fancy golf then! Why tho players. especially those professionals who haven't eaten since last February. would shoot 55's and eos all over the place. Naturally, this would give the customers a better run for their money.
 Here in Chicago the better mob sters while laughing Nt the Boston boys who tried to sell their plan, called them those clumsy eastern muggs."
 Did you read" this party said. "how those Boston dopes went HDOut BettiUB tHeiT Hidcuiucs m You did, eh? Well, wasn't that the dumbest thing you ever saw? What did they mean by asking those muggs if they could move in? You know what we'd a done out here? Dropped bomb for q calling card on Monday. shot the windows out on Tuesday. beat hell out of the secretary on Wednesday. and dropped in on Thursday and asked 'em where they wanted the machines set up.
 And they'd a give us n good spot, too. If they hadn't we'd put tho 18th hole where the first one was, and moved No. out around third base.

WORLD GOLF STARS
 IN FINAL TUNE
 UP FOR U. 5. OPEN
Title Play Begins To-mor- row at, Fresh Meadow -Jones, Sarazen Play Around
BY LEO PETERSEN United Press Stan Correspondent.

Flushing, N. r., June 22.--(UP) Bobby Jones, playing q round just for fun, and Gene Sarazen, paced contestants in the national open golf championship on their final practice shots to-day. Jones, here merely as q spectator and Sarazen. fresh from his tri- umph in the 1882 British open, were engaging in an informal ex- hibition match. A small gallery, at one dollar each, was expected to follow the play.
 Most of the field had arrived this morning. and practically every one of the 151 entrants will make the final preliminary tours of the lengthy and difficult Fresh Meadow club course. The championship play begins tomorrow. What's This? The threat lodged against the club management for It's refusal to be party to q pari-mutuel bet ting scheme on the tournament out come appeared to have been dissi- pated. cub officials denied that n desire Tor publicity had inspired what some believed to be press
  agent story.
 The tournament shaped up us real thriller. Most of the foreign threat will be made by Jose Juardo, sma II -statured Argentine profess sional, who came within m ace of winning the British title last year.
 The other invader Is Tomaklki Miyamoto. former Japanese cham pion. The Japanese plays nice game of golf. but only by going crazy" could he be given even all outside chance of winning the open. Chief pre-tournament specula- tions centered on Sarazcn along with George Won Elm. Mac Smith and Tommy Armour. Sarazen is playing some of the best golf of his career, and, ten years after he has tho best chance of any player in the field. Won Elm was runner up to Billy Burke one year ago, and fig a dangerous threat. Chances held by Mac Smith arc well liked by many of his brother pros. Tom my Armour, former British and U. $. open champion. Is rated among the first ten.
 Billy Is Ready
 Burke, because of his relative inobscurity before winning the 1881 U. $. title, has not commanded the attention often given the defending champion, but his game is as sound as 1t ever was. He will be playing on n famllair course. Some of the others most frequently men, tioned as possible winners arc Wal ter Hagen. Al Espinosa, Johnny Golden, Willie McFarlane and Joe Kirkwood.
