SEAvER KEEPS
STATE CROWN

DEL MONTE, Calf, Aug. %.
U.Pi-Charles Seaver of Los Ange-
les held the California amateur
golf championship today after an
up-and-down struggle with Dr.
Cliff Baker, Portland, Ore, and
Kelso, Wash, dentist.
Seaver defeated DR.. Baker 3 and
in the 36 hole finals over the diff
ficult Pebble Beach course.
Jane Douglas of Los Angeles de-
feated the defending titlist, Clara
Calendar, 13-year-old golf prodigy
of Monterey, to win the Del Monte
women'S amateur by an 5 score.
The erratic play of both Seaver
and Baker provided the gallery with
thrill after thrill. Virtually impos-
sible shots, sensational recoveries
and a courageous last stand by the
northerner made the match one of
the craziest and most entertaining
title fights ever played at Pebble
Beach.
Seaver was three up at the end
of the morning l8. On the 9th, he
was two up. On the 32nd, he was
four up.
Then DR.. Baker calmly started
his final drive. He won the 33rd
hole with par four.
His play on the 34th was classic.
He needed birdie three to keep
the match alive and got it. His drive
was in the rough, but that didn't
matter. He played from the rough
with an iron, cleared the trees and
plopped his ball on the green IT'S
yards away. Then DR.. Baker ran
down 20 foot putt that left him
only two down.
The sand guarded 35th proved
his downfall, however. His tee shot
was to the right of the green and
imbedded in a trap He blasted out
but went across the green into an
other deep sandpot. He use two
more strokes, then extended his
hand to the former Stanford var
sity golfer.

.OLD TIMES At
GIANTS CAME

NEW YORK. Aug. 90. U.P) The
largest National league crowd of the
season, $4,000 fans, enjoyed an old
fashioned afternoon of turmoil at
the Polo Grounds yesterday. Pop
bottles flew and a squad Of police
scurried about the field, protecting
iumpireS.
The st. Louis Cardinals beat the
Giants, to l, in the first game
of a double header. In the eighth
inning of the second game, UNI
pires Dolly Stark and Ted McGrew
made three successive decisions,
which, in the opinion of the Giants
and fans, let the Cards make four
runs and take one run lead.
Manager and first baseman Bill
Terry of the Giants, rushed at
McGrew and grabbed him by the
coat lapels. His teammates dragged
him away. A bitter dispute fol-
lowed. Finally Mel OFT and Coach
Tom Clarke of the Giants were
banished, but Terry was allowed to
play. Meanwhile the fans howled
and shoWered bottles.

NEW YORK, Aug %. - Helen
Wills Moody's default to Helen
Jacobs in the final of the national
womens tennis tournament split
the sports world today. Mrs. Moody
returned under care of a nurse to
her California home and Miss
Jacobs left for a vacation at Mar
blehead, Mass.
The controversy dwarfed the
stunning fact that Queen Helen"
supreme in women's tennis since
1926, had been beaten at last.
Mrs. Moody was seeking to tie
Mrs. Molla B. Mallory's all time
record of eight national titles by
beating Miss Jacobs, who won the
title last year when she did not
compete. Each had won a set. In
the third and deciding set, Queen
Helen" was losing O-3 when she
walked off the court defaulting.
One large group of sports fol-
lowers insisted Mrs. Moody should
have played through the final set,
even at the risk of fainting from
the numbness and pain caused by
a previous spine injury.
Mrs. Moody was accused of being
particularly unfair to Miss Jacobs
by quitting cold and depriving
her of the chance of winning out
and-out, rather than to hollow de-
Iault victory.
Mrs. Moody was able to walk
off the court, these critics pointed
out. Miss Jacobs probably needed
a doctor worse than did Mrs.
Moody she used restoratives re-
peatedly during the match.
Bad Feeling Reported
There had been bad feeling be-
tween the two Berkeley, Cal, Hell
ems since both came into national
prominence.
A smaller group of admirers
rallied to Mrs. Moodys defense.
These included not only some of
the tennis writer's, but officials of
the tennis association and Miss
Jacobs herself.
Mrs. Moody for years has given
her best to tennis, meeting all
comers from all countries with a

BASEBALL NOT
OVER As YET.

Although the night ball season
came to a close last week there
are several games to be played
which will be of great interest to
local fans. This weeks menu pro-
yides the following tidbitS:
Tonight the playoff between the
Studebakers and Golden State
teams for second round honors
will provide fans with game
worth watching. These two teams
ended the second round in dead
lock for top honorS and while
there were rumors afloat that the
Studebakers would not contest the
tie. these were later vigorously de-
MED and the playoff game arrang-
ed. The StudebakerS won first
round honors and should they win
tonights game they will have only
the Coca Colas to meet for the
seasons championship. A victory
for the Buttermakers, however, will
necessitate a three way play-off
which will be decided next week.
Tomorrow night the righthanders
and lefthanders will play a game.
Leon Lee will captain the port
siders while John Kepley will lead
the righthanderS into battle.
Wednesday nights game has not
been settled as yet and league man
ayers are still angling for an out
side game. 1t is expected that nego-
tiations will be completed by to-
night.
Smarting from their defeat at
the hands of the San Diego Elks
team last week, the local All Stars
are seeking a return game with
the outfit. The coast team is agree
able and the game will be played
this week, the date as yet being
undetermined. 1t is understood,
however, that it will be on either
Thursday or Friday nights with
a game against the Holtville All
Stars as an alternative. Should the
Elks game be played on Thursday
the Holtville clash will follow on
Friday, and vice versa. Some de-
finite announcement on these
games is promised by league Of
ficials tomorrow at which time
they expect to be able to name
the teams playing on Wednesday
night.
