SOMERVILLE WIN
 GOOD FOR GOLF
 IN UNITED STATES
BY STUART CAMERON United Press Sports EditOr)

Victory bS Ross (Sandy) Som erville, dour Canadian in the United States amateur golf cham pionship generally has been hailed as good thing for golf in Amer ica.
 Even before the final match had been started many golf writ CTS expressed the opinion that in terest in the game generally would be enhanced by break in the monopoly held by U. s. players on their own national championship.
 And this was not because any of them liked Johnny Goodman less but the game more.
 Actually Somerville's ultimate victory was that of a dark horse. Before the tournament started Gas is the case of course, before all tournaments) the writers made their own lists of possible winners. A chosen few were named first Then, as a means of protection against -a possible oversight, list of "others who might come through" was made. Somerville's name was generally found fairly we'll near the bottom of such lists.
 BOD Sa1u lC
 Bobby Jones was one of those who early predicted that Somer- vile would reach the finals, and named Sandy as a likely winner.
 Now that the long line of U. S. triumphs in the American ama- teur has been broken, it will be reasonable to expect heavier en- try lists of Dominion players.
 xu,I. Irn spoken more than 200 words dur ing his stay at Baltimore while the amateur was being played, re- gra ciousness of the gallery which watched his final match with Goodman.
 Ut was the most sportsmanlike crowd 1 ever played before," he said.
 This was easy to believe for the crowd apSlauded his good shots as enthusiastically as 1t did those of the U. s. contestants. And the crowd contained plenty of specta- tors who were all for Johnny to come through.
 It seemed almost pity that Somerville Is such solemn gen. tleman. The writer saw him hum dreds of times during amateur week at Baltimore and Sandy smiled just once out of all those occasionsl His friends however. say he is affable enough away from the milling crowds.
 Although Goodman didn't quite make the championship he more than vindicated the regard his friends hold for him as well as Johnny's own belief in himself.

BENNY LEONARD PRACTICINC WITH
 IRISH FIGHTERS

Pompton Lakes, N. J.. Octo- Der 1. Benny Leonard, the former worlds lightweight cham pion, who after a seven years ab- sence from the ring, has come | back to endeavora to, win thet worlds welterweight title. is here; getting ready for the most import- ant bout of his comeback career : against Jimmy McLarnin, tho, Irish thumper.
 Benny has been here for close to two weeks now and every day has gone through training drills that would be too much for boys many years his junior. He's the most sincere worker seen around the camp since Jack Sharkey trained here.
 Boxing is Benny's chief forte in training at present. It was his magnificent boxing which brought him the worlds title. It's that on which he will rely to carry him to the heights now occupied by Jackie Fields. Even now. ten days before the ten round fight with McLarnin in Madison Square Garden, he is engaging in daily boxing and sharpening his skill against boys whose records have been built up on their boxing. They are good ringmen in the handling of the gloves, clever and fast and that's just what Benny says re needs to fit him right for the hard counters that only Jimmy McLar- min can deliver.
 There's Eddie Riley, as clever q lad as we have seen, who is one who is pitching to Benny. Just now Eddie finds some spots in the Leonard defense and so does Jimnfy Dougherty, another lad we'll versed in the science of hoX-a ing. They are making Benny's speed more keen by their fast fists and sharpening his eye.
 It's just a coincidence that both are Irish kids against whom Benny is spending his training days. but no qualms in facing off with the great McLarnin in the matter of race in the Garden week from Friday night.
 McLarnin has been training down at Sayville, L. l.. for the last week or so, but yesterday he took a day off, because his ring fell down and he had to depend on other physical exercises in prepar- ation for the Leonard fight. He will have Phil Rafferty and Johnny Peters with him when he resumes boxing on Thursday.
 In the meantime, Matchmaker Sam McQuade is rounding up his supporting cards and expects to havei it intact by tomorrow, put i, ting in some of the best local talent there is to be had.
 The tickets for the show will he ready for distribution on Fri- day and judging by the demands for the tickets at this time, the resumption of the indoor season in the Garden on October should be marked big success.

,l Rome and Tokio both are press ing their claims upon the Olympic committee as the site of future
 games and in the event of the. German committee falling to give it's guaranty that no color line wiif be drawn, the 1886 games may be moved to either Rome or Tokio. One of those two cities will be, the scene of the. 1940 games but that decision will not be taken

HARVARD LOOKS TO | WELLS AS BARRY
 WOODS SUCCESSOR

Cambridge, Mass. Oct liar yard, according to all early indi- cations, has, in Harry K. Danny" Wells, a quarterback who will make the > fans forget all about Barry Wood, last years signal caller.
 Loud were the groans when Barry left after last years season. But the groans have turned into cheers for the boy of 21 who IS expected to lead Harvard on to a successful season.
 Wells Is versatile athlete. He is from Hubbard Woods, III. While at Q mid-western prep school he played football for four years, explaining an undefeated team in his final season. He also played basketball and Is member of the track team.
 Last year Wells hid under a basket while Wood basked in the spotlight. But this year all his speed and football knowledge will be needed. He can punt. pass and run with more than fair ability. This speed, however, Is his strong point. As a schoolboy he ran the 100 in 10 seconds, and he hasn't slowed up any.
 Wells weighs 190 and Is six feet tall.

U of C Quarterback
 Speaks 5 Tongues

Los Angeles (UP) = Mitchell (Mike) Francovich should be guar. terback of some such International football team as Notre Dame. At present he barks signals for the University of California, at Los Angeles.
 Mike, 21, a native of Arizona, and half Serbian, speaks German, Italian, Serbian, Spanish, and Eng fish. The only handicap to Mikes powerful speech is that his team mates speak only English.
 The quarterback also is a fine slight of hand artist, and his huwe hands can palm a football almost as we'll as a deck of cards. Still a sophomore. Mike was such an excellent student he was of fered scholarships at both Harvard and Cornell. He plans to attend the School of Diplomacy, at Wash- ington,. D. O., upon his graduation.

TRAP NOTES

Many persons not conversant with the trapshooting sport are of the opinion that the Grand Amer ican Handicap tournament is the only shoot of the year. The Grand American Is the same to the trap shooting sport as the world series is to baseball. Shooting takes parts at all times of the year In the various states of the union, Canada and the Panama Canal Zone. Many registered shoots, sponsored and officially recognized by the Amateur Trapshooting Association will be held before the first of the year.
 J, Nj. McComb, Lieutenant (S. C.) U, $. N., Lakehurst, N. J. organ izcd n gun club at the Naval Air station at Lakehurst n year ago. The club now has 25 members and their improvement has been grad ual Lieutenant McCOmb has made the suggestion for n championship shoot or race at the Grand Amer ican for Army, Navy and Marine Corps members, as there arc a lot of trapshOOters in these branches of the service. The suggestion will be .ivcn due consideration at the annual meeting of the board or di- rcctors of the A. T. A. next Dcccm- Der.
 Steve Brothers of Philadelphia, Pa, who won the champion of champions title for the second time at the recent Grand Amer ican Handicap, keeps up the good work. Steve made a clean sweep of events at the Quaker City Gun Club a few days ago by breaking 100 straight to tie with Frank Webb of Trenton. N. J., and he broke 99 straight to win the shoot off. Steve is one of the best shots in the United States and one of the most consistent makers of perfect scores.
 John Brandt, manager of the Amateur TrapshOOting Association, has been informed that the hand- some trophy donated by members of the family of the late John Phillip SOusa, famous bandmaster. will again be offered during next years trapshOoting classic. SOnsa was an ardent devotec of the game and his memory will be pcrpctu- ated by the handsome trophy of- fcfed Ey his relatives. 
 A memorial to the late Guy V. Dering. of Columbus, Wis, for years the president of the A. T. A. at Vandalia, Ohio, is to be erected on the permanent home grounds of the association. A fund raised by tra rapshooters will be used to erect the memorial which will either be a bronze shaft in front of the trap line or a club house for women shooter. MT Dering had long ad- vocated the erection of club house for lady shooters and 1t may pc that the committee in charge will erect such building.

AMERICAN LEAGUE.
New York Cops
 in N. HI. Sunday

New Haven. Oct 1-Frankie Me- Gowan, Branford's Betting Beauty who enjoyed one of his best sea- sons with Baltimore this year and who may find himself in a major league training camp again next spring, will probably appear in the lineup of the New Haven Cops against the New York police de- partment nine at Donovan field Sunday afternoon. The only hitch thus far to prevent McGowan's ap- pearance with the Cops is that he is scheduled to officiate in foot ball both Saturday and Sunday and he must make arrangements for someone else to handle the whistle-tooting.

Numerous tclegraphic trapshoot- ing leagues throughout the United States are expected to be register ed with the Amateur TrapshoOtfngs Association for. 1888. Many of these leagues were f0stcrcd during the 1882 season and indications point to a national tournament next year.
 With the season of 1892 drawing to a close, officials of the trap shooting game report that business conditions during the year failed to put a damper on the sport as had been expected. Trapshooting more than held it's own and the Grand American attendance prov,d that the big classic will always be q monster shooting event. -

millionaire bachelor. Another is a
f1apper who is travelling with an older
sister. The sister chooses the wealthy
man as the logical mate for the

begin. The picture is regarded by
Menjou as the best of his many

A NEW magazine has appeared
in Hollywood, known as the
Cinema Digest. Presenting its
news in a pleasantly informal
fashion, and yet with unusual
dignity for a film magazine, this
may be said to be the first "talkie"
magazine which has opinions in
stead of mere chatter and gossip.
In it you will find what reviewers
throughout the country think OF
current films, and also what var1-
Gus film magnates and those in
terested in it from outside angles
are thinking.
But here a suggestion. Why
not include in it players col
umn? Why, for instance, wouldn't t
it be a novel idea if actors and
their opposites reacted to the
criticisms they read in this maga-
zine in print? For example: If
Miss Bankhead would be willing
to write in and say, II thought Mr..
X was quite right in his review of
Such-and-Such-I was terrible,
not only the reviewer, but the
public in general would be apt to
be unusually interested. Then
again, if Miss Garbo would say,
'I know I did a swell job in AS
You Desire Me'-but isn't it nice
to be told SOP" wouldn't that slim
ulate the Imagination to great
leaps and bounds. So 1t might go
but then, of course, 1t might
not.
A NEW generation comes along.
The two young sons of Charlie
Chaplin have signed a film con-
tract. Lita Grey Chaplin has ar
ranged for them to make their
debut together in a Fox film. We
have forgotten the exact age of
the lads, but somehow it seems
as though Mrs. Chaplin had start
ed a mite ahead of time cashing
in on the old family name.
