c OLF PLAY-OFF
To MRS. MOVES.

Mrs. E. A. Noyes, of the Army
and Navy Country Club, captured
the golf playoff for the first
prize of the recent Army relief
tournament.
Playing over the service club
course yesterday, Mrs. Noyes
scored 81 and a handicap of IL
gave her a net of 79. Mrs. K.
H. Hedrick, also Of Army and
Navy, scored 94-11-83, while
Mrs. j. v. Brownell, Indian
Spring Club, carded 98-12-86.
The trio had tied for first low
net.
DR.. w. C. Sparks was telling
fellow members at the Washing
ton Golf and Country Club the
easy way of holing mashie niblick
shots for an eagle two on the
first hole. DR.. Sparks performed
the feat the other day.
Probably the hardest pair in
the Washington club to conquer
are DR.. Calvin E. Buck, super
intendent of the Episcopal Eye,
Ear and Throat Hospital, and
Bill Wenzel. The latter's meteoric
improvement has been the talk
of the entire club. Once glad to
break 100 a few months ago, he
is now saddened whenever going
above 80.
DR.. Buck and Wenzel have
taken but one beating, losing to
Ralph S. Fowler and Ralph A.
Drain, Fowler turning in u.
Incidentally, Fowler is playing
the best golf over at Washing
ton. He is entered in the sec
tional amateur qualifying rounds
next month at Chevy Chase and
will make a strong bid for one
Of the places.

Judge Is About
Through for
Season
BY GARRET WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Ill, July 30.-A
grand old veterans hopes of get
ting back into the game to stay
for a while went glimmering yes
terday in the case of Joe Judge,
who started at first base for the
Griffs in the fourth and final
contest of the series with the
Browns.
During the second inning yes
terday, Judge raced from first to
third on Buddy Myers long dou-
BILE to right center. Pulling up
at the far corner, the veteran
found to his dismay that he had
once again pulled tendon in
his weak leg, necessitating his re-
moval from the game after the
ending of the inning.
ITS funny, this leg Of mine"
was Judges comment this
morning. "All during practice
yesterday felt fine. 1 ran
all over the place, bent down
to make the hardest Sort of
stops, ran out buntS during
the batting drill, and never
felt the slightest ache or pain.
But once in the game, bingO,
went my leg, and also my
chances Of getting back into
action for some while"
Joe KuheI Goes In
Judge was stationed at first
base yesterday because of a stiff
ness in the youngSter Joe Kuheps
leg. Kuhel, it seems, was hit
pretty hard by Fred Schultz on
a close play at first during
Thursdays game; in fact, so hard
that his leg stiffened over night.
This latest injury to Judge
probably means the end for the
veteran this season. as far as
playing first base for the Griff-
men any more is concerned.
Kuhel's youth and greater
ability to play under handicaps
are such that only the worst sort
of injury will keep him out of
action. Manager johnson did not
start the youngster yesterday be-
cause Judge was available and he
figured that a short rest was all
that Kuhel needed to bring him
around.
BIuege In Lineup Today
Osie Bluege. the other "ailing'
athlete on TT iner Mike Martins
hands, will be back into the line
up for the Chicago series starting
today. Yves Kingdom was placed
at third base yesterday only to
allow Ossie to completely recover
from a stomach disorder brought
about by the intense heat while
the Griffs were in st. Louis.

VARIOUS TYPES
WIN OLYMPIC
CROWNS
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Among those who have won
Olympic titles in track and field
competitions are actors, artists,
authors, business men, bankers,
brokers, statesmen, bank mes
sengers, college students, a dyer,
a tailor, a shepherd boy, doctors,
dentist, lawyers, railroad
workers, policemen, newspaper
men, an iron moulder, steel mill
puddler, and a veterinarian.
Lord David Burgley, member
of the House of Lords, is the
only noble to win an Olympic
title.
Ray Ewry, elongated standing
Jumper of Purdue University
back in the early 1900s, holds
the record for Olympic titles won.
Ray captured every standing
jump in four Olympiads, those Of
1900, 1904, 1906, and 1908, thus
making a total of 10 first places.
Paavo Nurmi. the sensational and
immortal Finn, has seven first
places in Olympiads to his credit.
Nurmis record of Olympic vic
tories is generally considered
superior to Ewry's, due to the
fact that Paavo's first places
were registered in distance events.
COStlieSt Sports
Yachting and rowing are con-
sidered the coStliest of Olympiad
sports.
United States Army competi-
tors, horses and men, are favored
to win equitation honors at Los
Angeles.
The United States won the
Winter Olympios, held at Lake
Placid, N. Y, last February. The
U. S. A. made a clean sweep Of
speed skating and bob-sledding.
Other events included skiing, fl
ure skating and hockey. The I'M
official point total, based on a
marking which gives points for
the first six places. gave the
U. S. A. 103 points, to Norway's

Outstanding U. S. Men
Intra-American competition, even
in Olympaids. is common. This
year several bitter contests will
be staged among American mem
bers of the Olympic team. The
outstanding intra-team competi-
ton will be furnished by Bill
Carr and Big Ben" Eastman in
the 400-meters, 'hil. three
cornered battle between Beard,
Sailing and Keller, American hur-
dlers, is expected to enliven COM
petition in the 110-meters high
hurdles event. Another intra-team
contest is one involving Metcalfe,
Tolan and Simpson, of the Amerl-
can team, in the two sprints.
America won the hammer-throW
in every Olympiad since 1900 ex-
cept in 1923, when DR.. Pat O'Cal-
laghan, of Ireland, took the
event.
Since 1905 Sweden has four
times won the javelin throw, and
Finland has won twice, to the eX-
clusion of all other countries.

JIMMY HITS
! BALL HARD
AND FAR
eyAnks@


way Jimmy Foxx has been slam
ming those home runs around all
American League parks this sea-
son makes it look as if one of my
cherished records is about to
fade. 1 refer to the mark for
home runs in one season. When
I hit so in 1927, many said that
performance would never be ex-
celled. That was only five years
ago and here we are seeing the
possibility of a new record being
established.
All can say Is: Go to it,
Jimmy, and get yourself rec
ord that will still be in the
books when you hang up the
old uniform and toss the spiked
shoes in some convenient cor
ner of the farmhouse. You de-
serve all the good things that
baseball may bring you and my
congratulations will be among
the first you get the day you
hit that Sixty.firSt home rum"
Naturally, we all get kick out
Of doing something which has not
been done before. 1t would be
nice to have that particular rec:
ord of mine hold up for several
years to come.
Changes Views
Every man likes to have some
unusual accomplishment con-
nected with his name. But there
Is another way that I look at
these things now.
Players and fans alike were
pulling for me to set new records
in the years when I broke them.
I gladly join in the army Of we'll
wiShers now for any younger
player who has chance to estao-
lish new marks, even if they hap
pen to improve on the ones which
I set. Such accomplishments help
baseball, no matter who does
them. The fans get new kick
out of it. Baseball has been good
to me, and I am for anything that
helps baseball, even though some
of my own records must be top
pied.
Foxx is a great hitter. 1t is
doubtful that any other hitter in
the history of baseball could drive
a ball farther than Jimmy has
driven them. We hear a lot about
the lively ball, but I figure that
any man who can drive a lively
one so much farther than any OF
the other players also would have
stood out as the greatest driver
with a less lively ball. For, after
all, we must remember that in
each game in which a ball is
driven a tremendous distance by
any particular player, at least IT
other players, usually more than
this number. do their swinging
against this same kind of ball.
Not One-Park Hitter
Foxx is no "single-park hitter.
That is what we call a player who
is particularly successful on one
park and rather helpless, compar-
atively speaking, on other fields.
I was looking over Jimmy'S fig
ures the other day, and I noticed
that he was getting more homerS
away from home than at Shibe
Park. If there was an idea any.
where that Foxx specialized in hit
ting the homers at Philadelphia,
where such hits have been quite
plentiful this year. it is a mistake.
Jimmy had 40 homers when !
read the check-up, and 19 of
these had been hit at Shibe Park,
where the AS had played more
games than they had played
away from home. Every other
city in the league was represented
in the record. Jimmy had hit
seven in Detroit, three apiece in
Washington, Boston and Cleye-
land, two apiece in New York
and Chicago. and one in st.
Louis.
I am quite sure that I never
went into the month of August
with 40 or more home runs, as
Jimmy is doing this year.

 "In Seattle recently, I saw ped estrians risk their lives repeated ly rushing across streets and over car tracks in front of rapidly nov ing automobiles and street cars. and then the breathless pedes- trians, graItified at having escaped destruction, would turn to watch the speeding vehicles go on their way.
 How foolish I would say to myself, that they are in such a hurry when they really have so much time. And yet, Judge, you have indulged in the same habit with respect to other acti- wties all your life I childed my self.
 Changes Lifelong Habits
 "Litc-long habits are difficult to change. I altered one of mine. planned leisluely instead of a rapid voyage.
