HILADE LPHIA, June 5
G.N.sO. - The galaxy Of golf
stars clustering about the course
of the Merton Cricket Club, where
the National Open Champion
ship will begin Thursday, was more
brightly Illuminated today by the
presence of the defending cham
pion, Johnny Goodman, and the
newlycrowned British amateur
title-holder, w. Lawson Little.
Trying to get their sea-legs ad-
justed to the green's and fair
ways after a boat ride from
Boston to New York, and train
trip to Philadelphia. both Good
man and Little were primed to
WELD their sticks in another
practice round today.
After arriving together last eve
ming, the defending titliSt and
the San Francisco phenomenon
plunged into the task of getting
acquainted with the course.
Little's long blasts from the
tee got him into considerable
trouble on the Merton course,
and he admitted that in the two
days remaining for practice he
will have to discover some means
of maneuvering his 300-yard
drives.
Goodman was confident he will
turn in a commendable perform
ance when play begins in the
tournament

RED BANK GETS
BOAT CLASSIC

The annual national sweep
stakes for single-motored craft OF
unlimited horse power, one OF the
outstanding motor boating events
of the country, will be sponsored
by the Red Bank Yacht Club at
Red Bank, N. j., on August ID and
10, Clarence A. Legg, secretary OF
the club, announced today. The
1888 race was conducted by the
Red Bank Yacht Racing Associa-
ton.
The American Power Boat As
ISOLATION Racing Commission, hav-
ing been notified by the Red Bank
Yacht Racing Association that the
latter would not hold the national
sweepstakes this year and, having
received no word from the yacht
club, donor of the trophy, recently
awarded the event to Baltimore
for August 10 and IL as part OF
the Maryland Yacht Clubs pro-
gram. With the Red Bank Yacht
Clubs application for sanction
however, the contest will remain
on the Shrewsbury River. The
deed of gift governing the trophy
stipulated that it shall be COM
peted for annually at Red Bank,
but the date of the race was IN
doubt until today.
Williams Bruins has been ap-
pointed chairman of the national
sweepstakes race committee and
William M. Eldridge, timer. George
Refs of Lake George. N. Y, won
last years race with his Gold cup
champion, Ell Legarto. Although
not limited to boats Of Gold cup
specifications, the race was orig
mated for the purpose Of assuring
the east of competition in the
Gold cup class each year. The
Presidents cup is the only other
annual fixture on the schedule
attracting Gold cup craft each
year in the east, the Gold cup race
being liable to transfer to any
part of the country, depending
upon the home port Of the winner.

Besides Henry C'Zeke") Bonura,
wealthy White Sox first baseman
who is bidding for hitting laurels,
there are Jim Bottomley Of Gin
cinnati, Irwin Burns of the Browns
Bill Terry, manager-first sacker Of
the champion Giants, Sam Leslie
of the Dodgers and Hank Green,
berg of the Tigers.
Voted Most Valuable
Bonura was voted the Texas
Leagues most valuable player
with Dallas in 1888, when he led
the circuit in hitting with Purdy,
of San Antonio, and chalked up
plenty of home run honors. The
italian clubber is the scion Of a
wealthy New orleans family.
Bottomley, who is most remem'
bered with the Cardinals, got his
training with the Houston Bluffs
The most important cog in the
wichita Falls infield that went
to the st. Louis Browns in 1880,
Irwin Burns remains with that
club today, while the combination
has been broken up.
At San Antonio in the same
year, Sam Leslie held down the
first hassock and gained note with
his big stick and brilliant field
ing. He went to the Giants, but
was sent across the river to Brook
lyn a few months later.
Started With Sports
Terry, now first citizen of Mem
phis and popular manager Of the
world champion Giants, got his
first baseball training back in the
war days with the Shreveport
Sports.
Big Hank Greenberg was the
ramrod of the champion Beau
mont Exporters in 1881, when he
cut a swath in the Shippers ex-
pense accounts. He had a nasty
habit of losing balls over the cen
terrified fence.

ALREADY
HOLD TWO
TITLES
By DANNY GILL

Eddie and Billy Jacobs, Middle
Atlantic Tennis Doubles cham
pions, are in for a busy week.
Tomorrow the Middle Atlantic
tourney begins at Army-Navy Club,
with an estimated entry list OF
80. Among the teams expected
are Alphonse Smith-John Wheat
ley, who recently won the Old
Dominion doubles title; Dooly
Mitchell-Tom Mangan, Clarence
ChareSt-Ralph McElvenny, Tony
Latona-Axel Craven, and lily
Ritzenberg-Murray Gould.
One of the strongest doubles
combinations will undoubtedly be
the Barney Welsh-Johnny Higgins
duo. Welsh, the Rockville star,
is bringing his Duke University
teammate here as his partner.
They won the Middle Atlantic
intercollegiate and the Southern
Conference titles.
The MitchelFMangan and La
.tona Craven combinations are
new ones this year and possess
unusual strength. Major ]. A.
Dorst and Allan Blade will also
prove tough nut to crack for
all favoriteS.
However, the team to watch, is
the Charest McElvenny outfit
which, playing together for the
first time last year, won the
Wardman Park invitation tourna-
ment. Charest is the U. S. Vet
Grams champion and McElvenny
won most of his fame as a doubles
player, having shared the national
intercollegiate doubles crown a
short time back.
The draw will be made today
at 6 o, m,

BONURA TIMELY
SLUGGER

Because he is batting at the top
of the league with a mark well
over 400, Rollie Hemsley is get
ting praise on all sides. He de-
serves it, but that mark is not so
impressive as one would think at
first glance. He has driven in
only IS runs, while Pepper has
sent 80 over the plate. Runs
batted in are what wins games.
Chicago is quite excited over
Zeke Bonura. In fact, the league
is interested more or less in this
big son of swat. Bonura Is up
with the leading circuit drivers,
and down with the weak hitters
when it comes to averages.
A Chicago writer asks:
Whom would you prefer?"
"BOnura, batting .257 and driv-
ing home 80 runs, or Hemsley,
who has sent in but Is, count
ing the Memorial Day gameS?"

ager of challenger Baer.
Hoffman will throw the gaunt-
let down to the New York State
Athletic Commission next Satur-
day afternoon (June 81. He
must bring his fighter into New
York that day to have one Of
the board medicos give him a
thorough physical examination.
Will Air Reasons
Ancil will appear before Messrs.
Phelan, Brown and Wear and
air his views on the refereeShip,
He will tell the august salons in
no uncertain terms Of his OBJ
jectionS to the assignment of
either man. He will demand a
square shake on the selection of
the third man to handle the
gladiators in the ring proper.
Says Hoffman:
81 have nothing against
Donovan and Forbes personally.
1 am not questioning their
honesty. The whole world is
looking at this fight. Max has
q great deal at stake.
"My objection to Donovan
dates back to Baer'S route of
Max Schmeling. If you were
there and saw the fight you'll
remember he rode Max from
the moment he put up his
hands. Hadn't Baer flattened
the Dutchman Pm sure we'd
got all the worst of the de-
ciSiOn.
ANNOYED Make
Donovan kept warning Baer
telling him he shouldn't do
this or that, so that the poor
fighter didn't know where he
was. People pay their good
money to see a fight. Sure,
I'm for the rules, but don't
think it's right for a man to
pick on one fighter all through
battle and annoy him to a
point of rrOstratiOn.
II thought Donovan handled
the fight very badly.
II met up with Forbes the
other day in camp. He's a nice
man. But I don't think he is
strong enough to handle the
two giants. He hasn't the
physique, he's too weak, and
he looks fraiI. I'd like to see
a man in there who can handle
the men in the clincheS, and
whose every command will be
respected. I know after Max
stings the big italian once or
twice he'll hug my lad like a
June bride and it'll take a man
with powerful arms and plenty
Of strength to make Primo
