which will reduce the field of
more than 200 to 80. Match play
will begin Thursday and continue
through Sunday. when the 36-hole
final will be staged.
Westland, as defending cham
pion, does not have to qualify. A
galaxy of links stars will tee off

NELSON ENTERS
HEARST SWIM

CHICAGO, July 1O.-Marvin
Nelson, one of the greatest long
distance swimmers developed in
the last five years, and the win
ner of first prize in the William
Randolph Hearst-Herald and Ex-
aminer 15-mile swim marathon
last year. is to arrive in Chicago
this week to begin training for
this years $4,000 event, which
will be held Sunday, July %.
Nelson, who established a new
worlds record for the distance in
the event lasy year, also accounted
for the Canadian National exhi-
bition event at the same distance
previous to coming to Chicago.
The entry Of Nelson, who it is
admitted has a slight edge over
the rest of the field, has in no
way deferred the other greats
and near greats from entering
the event. All the prominent ma
tional and international stars
have filed entries.
The five-mile event for women
that will be held in the waters
of the north and south lagoons
at the fair continues to draw a
large number of entries. This
event, the only one of its kind
staged in the United States, will
in all probability see a record
number facing the starters gun.

FEATURE BOUT
At HUNT CLUB
DRAWS BOOS
By GINO SINH


Washington ring fans have a
deep-seated dislike for infighting
They showed it unmiStakably
last night at the Riding and Hunt
Club by emitting boos, cat-calls,
Bronx cheers and similar vocal
1zationS which were highly sug-
gestive Of great ennui, during the
main bout in which Billy Nc
Mahon was handed a gold-plated
decision over Jack Portney Of
Baltimore after 10 rounds of
fairly vicious infighting in which
both boys whaled away at close
quarter throughout.
Portney appeared to have
landed the harder wallops, regis
tering heavily to McMahon's
chest and jaw with a particularly
well-manipulated short left swing,
and doing some nice two-fisted
hitting in close to win six of the
first seven rounds.
Finishes Strongly
Mcmahon finished strongly to
win four of the last five rounds,
taking all three of the final
rounds, due to greater cleverness
and swifter hitting, though his
shots lacked steam. He used
short jabs to the head and
pounded Portney's kidneys.
The Semifinal fracas was just
to the fancy of the assemblage,
in which Bob Wilson, Atlanta
blonde welter, hung a k. o. on
the chin of otto Kushmer, of
Alexandria, with stunning right
chops and also helped his cause
with left hooks to body and chin.
1t was sensational fight all the
way.
Stages Comeback
KuShmer went down at the bell
in the first round, and was down
for a four count in the second,
only to come back and pummel
his opponent under a scorching
shower Of punches in the third
round and hold his own in the
fourth. But in the fifth it was
curtains. Kushmer twice went
down for nine counts and the
third time the referee stopped
the bout.

taking the bait and as a table
delicacy are hard to beat. Soft
shell crabs, and peelers are the
best bait at the present time.
The first week of the bass sea-
son has rolled by with few large
fish recorded. Due to the extreme
heat, plant life in our rivers,
streams and ponds is unusually
thick, making live bait fishing very
poor. To overcome this handicap,
we suggest surface lures; such as
plugs, fly and spinner combina-
tions, and bass bugs. Your writer
has landed his share this week on
the foregoing bats but the fish
were nearly all small.
Talbot Denmead, of the U. S. Bu
reau of Fisheries, has just returned
from Pennsylvania where he re-
ports the bass are biting in the
Juanita River near Everett, Pa. He
says:
"A large crowd of anglers are
fishing and many bass are being
caught, many of which weigh
2H pounds and over"
T. E. Jones, of Seaside, Chesa,
peake Beach, reports fair catches
of hardheads and the fact that he
has four boats ready for anglers
who want to still-fish or troll. He
can also take care of sailing par
ties.

.HURLERS BALK
At GLOSSY
BASEBALL

Pitchers in the majors are TAX
ing quite hammering these days.
The bombardment witnessed in al
most every city where games are
played serves to call attention to
the statement of some Of the lead
ing pitchers that the standard ball
makes it almost impossible for a
curve-ball pitcher to get results.
While the hitting has been as
heavy in the National League as
in the American, the loud walls
emitted by box artists come from
members of the American League
staffS.
Pitchers in the top flight in
both leagues may have little
more trouble than they did last
season, but they manage to win
their games.
Guy Bush, that hard working,
ever willing pitcher of the Cubs,
has not joined the cry against the
standard ball. In fact, he said
early in the race that he thought
the ball would help him, and he
has been pitching a shade better
than last year. Farmhouse, of the
Braves, Hubbell, of the Giants,
and Mungo, of the Dodgers are
not saying anything about the fact
that there is no raised seam as
there was last season.
Curve Ball in a Pinch
Pitchers are not all alike. Some
depend on the curve ball in the
pinch and would use it if they
felt that they could make it break
in the right spot. More than one
mound mechanic resentS the
statement that the pitchers are
afraid to try a hook when they
have the hitter three and two. The
fact is, they dare not trust their
delivery with the highly polished
leather when they have the bat
ter in a hole.
Pitchers like Bush. Mungo,
Farmhouse and Hubbell have
something in their stock in trade
besides the fast ball and the hook.
They have that extra trick ball
they can throw to get the batter
when he is in hole. Their pitch
ing equipment comes as the result
of experimentation.
Cleveland is getting worse re-
suits from its highly appraised
pitching staff than any other
team in the American League.
From Detroit comes a cry that
the new ball has wrecked the
Tiger pitching staff, and only the
spirit of the club and its heavy
hitting infield have kept the team
in the race.
Bridges has a curve ball the
breaks on which are more puzzling
to a batter than those of any
other pitcher in the loop. In fact,
batterS say that Bridges has the
best curve ball in the country, but
it is doing him little good.
To prove the advantage Of a
curve ball that can be controlled,
Luke Hamlin pitched and won his
first big league game the other
day, and he said that he used only
six curve balls in the pinches to
stop the enemy.
