Thomas Feared
Lost for Last
Games
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND, Sept. 17.-Al-
though club officials are prone
to count Tommy Thomas "out"
for the ramainder of the season,
the general feeling today is the
veteran highlander would not
be able to hurl again this year
Manager johnson and his men,
fighting to grab that second
place position from the Athletics
need Thomas services.
Thomas, himself, is up a tree"
on the matter, but still holds
hopes of getting back into action.
He says:
eyes, the old pain is still
there, particularly when 1 try
to pitch. It's not serious, but
bad enough to keep me on the
Sidelines when I believe my
team needs me 50 much. I'm
hoping that a couple Of days
more rest bring me around
again. 1t was this that helped
me last month. But you can't
tell about an ailment Of this
kind"
Johnson Speaks
Manager johnson, when &C
costed on the subject, stated:
I'D hoped that / could use
Tommy in this Cleveland series.
But 1 know can't now because
the veterans arm is still all
ing. This situation is one of
those things that can't be bet
tered at a moments notice and
I'm bearing with Tommy in
the hope that maybe he'll be
o. k. in another day or SO.
But it looks bad"
JuggIes Pitchers
In the meanwhile, Manager
Johnson is trying to juggle his
pitchers to get the most out oi
every man on the staff. Because
of double-headers ahead, featur
ing the most important one to
morrow, the pilot has named
Dick Coffman as his twirler to
day and Fred Marberry and Gen
Alvin Crowder tomorrow.
Weaver is to be held over for
the Boston series, while Brown
and McAfee are down" to help
out as relief pitchers here in
Cleveland, not to mention the
fact they may be called upon as
starters in the Boston series next
week.

from the qualifying round be-
cause he is taking no chances.
They might make him pay his
way in today.
But, in spite Of everything,
Goodman has been strictly man
of destiny here, even as he was at
Pebble Beach three years ago,
when he snuffed out the great
Jones himself in the first round
When he needed an exhibition
shot against Mccarthy two days
ago, he went out and produced it,
Not 20 Till December
When Ouimet challenged, he
met this with a 35 betwee: the
ninth and eighteenth, and a 33
between the eighteenth and
twenty-seventh. He simply was
fated to be one of two great
golfers in this championship, and
all the heartacheS he caused the
Walker Cup selection committee
with his successive defeats OF
SeaYer, Mccarthy and Ouimet
the champion, we're only a part
of an ordained pattern.
However, this great scoring OF
the last two days wasn't needed
to prove his greatness. The proof
of that is in his record, which
shows that, although he won't be
% until december and didn't
start playing golf until seven
years ago, he won his first title,
the Omaha city championship
while still learning the rudiments
of the swing at the tender age
o. Is.
Twice he has competed for the
trans Mississippi title and twice he
has won. Previously, he has been
unable to get past the second
round of the amateur champion
ship, but he was low amateur in

BATTLES
MITCHELL

Dolly Mitchell and Frank Shore
face in a rubber match of the
season between them in the
finals of the Wardman Park
singles tournament today.
Mitchell trounced the lean
youngSter in a tournament early
this year and Shore beat Mitch

ner will have his name engraved
on the Henry L. Stimson trophy.
Mitchell won this tournament in
1929.

Protect Spectators

What we are trying to get at
is the thought the spectators
deserve the protection Of the
Humane Society to save them
from the cruel disappointments
they have had to undergo in
some of our most ballyhooed
fights.
The Illinois Mayor, if we re-
member rightly, claimed the
fight w~S causing international
complications which, when one
thinks Of Camera, Compallo,
Phil Scott, and a few Of the
other lportations, carries a
ring Of truth.
Certainly some Of our foreign
managers seem to think that
beef is the main attribute to
having a good heavyweight.
In truth, the lightest of all the
recent raritieS which have
come to America from abroad
to fight, has proven the best
Max Schmeling. He could use
the others as sparring part
ners.
It strikes us as a coincidence
. that a spider and a snake
should have been the principals
in this battle on which the
humane organization took COM
passion.
It isn't the first battle be-
tween a spider and snake,
we can assure you, and there
can be little doubt you gather
what we mean.
The Washington times., 1932-09-17

the last open at Fresh Meadow,
having a 68 on the final day. In
fewer words, the young man is
quite a young man, all told.
AS for Somerville, he's always
had the game but not the luck
when he came down in the States
seeking out title. Four times
champion up above and absolute
master of iron play, he usually
ran afoul of Jones when Jones
was having one of those days, II
he ever had any other kind, and
so Somerville made only a nomi-
nal impression, except upon those
who fancy stylist, a gamester,
and a gentleman.
Tribute to Craftsmanship
The Canadian survived the
easier half of the draw and, in
fact, is yet to be extended by
Johnny Brawner, Jack WeStland,
Bill Blaney and Jesse Guilford,
which in a sense is a tribute TO
his craftsmanship. Not very long
off the tees, he was outhit con-
siStently, often tremendously, by
Guilford yesterday, but this fea-
ture came to lack significance in
the face of Somerville'S magniti-
cent approach shots and his long
puts, if and when needed, which
was seldom.
Thus, he backs up his physical
armament with an admitted cour-
age under fire, which for pur-
poses of today's match is down
right ideal. With a pair of die
hard fighters like these in there,
everything ought to be just
splendid.
The Washington times., 1932-09-17
A Theme at Last

For instance, We'll never for
get the long, hot trip We took
to Philadelphia a couple OF
summers ago to see Gawge
Godfrey and Primo Camera do
battle at the Phillies' ball park.
It was long and hot, when one
considers the trip was made in
midsummer over the roads. It
hadn't been definitely proven
then that Camera was the
punk he has since established
himself as being, and thus our
curiosity.
Well, with what were we re-
warded.
One of the most dastardly
fouls ever committed purposely
or purposefully in the ring. 1t
was deliberate, contemplated
vnd peri ectly executed.
Il end the big Spanish
Wbp lay flat on his back with
a punch to the vital organs
and a leering black man stood
by the ropes with his white
teeth fairly glistening in the
arc lights.
All hands at the ringside
were disgusted.
We found ourself peeking
around hoping nobody might
recognize us as being present
at such a repulSive scene.
We determined we'd get in
our wagon and drive back
home and not write a line
about such a degrading per-
formance.
But en- route, in a low, dank
spot near some bayou or rivulet
where the air is heavy and not
well washed, we detected a
skunk had recently passed by.
And there was our theme
for the story we had declared
to ourself we'd never write, be-
cause we didn't believe we
could think of terms low
enough to describe what we
had seen.
So, there is a great oppor.
tunity for the Humane Society,
If only to protect spectators
from oftimes horrors of those
who abuse the ring.

OMAHA YOU TIL
TAUGHT SELF
GOLF CAME

BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. II
Tired. but happy, Johnny Good
man sat on a locker-room bench
after his spectacular achieve
ment in eliminating Francis Oui'
met and talked Of his golfing
career.
He never has taken lessons in
the game, but has come to the
threshold of national distinction
through his own efforts and the
tips of top-flight players given as
he progressed from the caddy
ranks to his present eminence.
He told of his first introduce
ton to the game as a bag toter
in 1923 and his first actual play
two years later. Since that time
he has won many sectional tour.
naments and, of course, is the
most recent conqueror of Bobby
Jones in the amateur ranks.
Fourth Child of Nine
Johnny is the fourth child Of
nine. He has two sisters and six
brothers. He is now an inSur-
ance agent, and at the age of %
is unmarried.
Since coming here for the. ma
tional he has lost three pounds,
weighing only 143 at present. He
said he had played little this
year-probably about so times
but that he had practiced for the
current event.
Lethal weapons were the putter
and mashie-niblick in the hands
of Goodman as he stabbed Oui.
NETS hopes for a renewal Of his
amateur championship triumph.
Never has the recognized master
of the putting green game been
beaten so decisively with his IA
vorite weapons as by Goodman.
Six One-Putt Greens
Goodman had six one-putt
greens of the Is on which he
played in the afternoon. He
picked up on the tenth, when his
first attempt to dislodge the ball,
covered by a foot of water, was
unsuccessful. Ouimet had only
four one-putt carpets in 16, and
one of these was a long one, con-
ceded after Goodman had won
the hole.
In driving, Goodman had a
small margin on seven Of the
13 holes on which the longest
wood was used from the tee. The
victor was never off the fairway,
while Ouimet was once in the
rough and another time in a
trap.
Turning Point of Battle
Two holes may be singled out
as the turning points Of the
match. One was the twenty.
ninth. the eleventh hole Of the
course, where Ouimet broke
badly, after the immediate en-.
couragement of having won the
tenth hole. He hooked his spoon
hot badly, and was still off the
green when his pitch from a bad
lie failed to find the target and
the ball nearly entered the con-
ceSSion tent behind the green.
The other was the thirty-fourth,
where Ouimets tee shot was
trapped on the left. His second
had to be a short mashie shot
because of a close lie, and his
third faded into the edge Of the
woods. Goodman, confident and
serene, was short with his ap-
proach. but won the hole with a
5 as Ouimet needed 6.
On the last hole Ouimet's final
hopes were buried in the sand Of
the left-hand trap. His explosion
failed to reach the carpet, and
though he rolled close with his
fifth. Goodman was stony wit his
approach putt, and Francis con-
ceded hole and match.

{. j. GRID YEAR
LOOKS NO BED
Of ROSES
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Catholic University's football
team faces the usual difficulties
as it looks forward to the open
ing of the season two weeks from
today.
The Cardinal squad numbers
40. Twenty of this number are
of varsity caliber. This means
that Coaches Bergman, Cotton
and Vlk must nurse the squad
along, exercising constant Vlgi-
lance against injuries.
C. us 1892 grid season will
be no bed of roses.
The Cardinals start with the
College of the City Of New York,
big, bruising team, and one
not easy to defeat.
October 8 Is Open
It is fortunate for G. U. that
it has an open date on October
8, for on the 18th comes Chat
tanooga, a team which has not
lost a regularly scheduled game
in three seasons. The boys from
Tennessee, will give c. U. an
afternoons hard work.
After Chattanooga comes Man
haitian, under "Chick" Meehan;
Holy Cross, Wake Forest, ProVi'
dence College and Duquesne.
With the exception of Holy
Cross, all these teams may be
defeated by C. U. and yet bring
no added prestige to the Cardi-
mails.
Tough to Beat
Every one of the teams men
toned is tough to beat.
Thus far, Bergman, Cotton and
Vlk have taken their candidates
along very slowly. Workouts have
not been severe to date, but the
trio of coaches will be forced to
turn the steam on next week if
C. U. is to be- ready for c. c.
of N. Y.
Among the features Of C. U.
play to date is the work of de-
fenSive linemen. Bergman does
not stick to the Notre Dame
style of defensive play for the
simple reason that he does not
have the type of player inhabit-
ing the South Bend campus.
Dutch" has taken the often
sive charge and adapted it to
defensive play. This is a smart
move. 1t permits use of hands
on parts of the body other than
the head and neck of offensive
units, and permits the defensive
player chance to overcome
teaming of offensive linemen and
ends. 4
Coaches Experimenting
C. U. coaches are experiment.
ing. They are searching for
three men: one to replace Howe
at end, one to take Monaco's
place at guard. and a forward
passer and field general to re-
place Oliver.
Young Pat Montagu gives In
dications of developing as field
general. He is a bit green, but
should come along after he has
been under fire in competition.
Yesterdays C. U. practice was
devoted for the most part tc
defensive work against punt for
nation.

Warner belongs to a club in

the club members are always

don't improve the club.
In fact Warner has become
so disgusted with the trouble in
his little club that he has
thrown 'em over for the Adven-

There's no telling what would
happen if we got together, how

bad but you have to keep your

This is considered not only a great
step forward In science, but in
economy, too, since the price of liver
has remained up ever since it became
popular in the treatment Of anemia.
In the meantime, until the new sub
stance is offered generally. 1t is we'll
to include liver in the diet of your
children from time to time. And do
not think that you must always buy
the expensive calves liver. Beef liver
and hog liver are rich in vitamins and
minerals, and are usually reasonable in
price, especially in some localities.
There are certain tricks to cooking
liver that will improve its flavor and
digestibility. Steaming or boiling Is a
good way to prepare it for young chill
dren. Be careful not to make the liver
tough and dry by cooking it too long
and at too high temperature. Hog
liver must be we'll cooked, as all pork
products should be. It is much more
palatable If scalded from one-hah min-
ute to minute before cooking.
Children like combinations Of food,

course for dinner or plain meat course,

extraordinary dessert-perhaps one of
the special desserts requested. But if
we have chicken or steak, duck or turkey
for the main course there will be Sone-

1t will be a combination salad-dessert
of nothing more than crackers. cheese
and jelly served with an alligator pear
salad, which makes G nice finish for the
meal. In this case we have our coffee
at the table, although my usual custom
is to serve after-dinner coffee in the
living room, where we can all settle
down comfortably for conversation. No
scheme that I have yet discovered does
so much to suggest the home atmos-
phere as does this simple custom of
serving coffee in the living room, or, if
the group Is small, across the hall, in
the more intimate music room
