Little and the British Open.

T AwSON LITTLES next start will
be at Muirfeld for the British
open, June 1929. The king of
the amateurs, with % straight VIC
tories at Prestwick, Brookline and St.
Annes, now will get ready to swap
shots with such star pros as Gene
Sarazen, Henry Cotton, Sid Brews, Mac
Smith and the strong field of entries
who soon will meet on Scottish turf.
How will the deep-chested Cali
fornian with the slashing swing and
the cool, Commemorative brain make
out at medal play?
He turned in 288 at the masters
show for u holes to finish well up,
but so far most of his time has been
given to match-play golf.
His record here has been phenome-
nal. From 1927 through 1880, Bobby
Jones won % out of "a starts in five
United States and British amateur ad-
ventures. Little's record is now %
straight, with Cleveland waiting for
his next appearance at match play
and stout chance to run the string
to 31-something beyond even a golf
er's dreams.
Little also stepped into the historic
company of Horace g. Hutchison
1885, 1880 and Harold Hilton Q900-
190D by winning the British crown
twice in q row. He also passed these
two brilliant figures of other years by

BURKE GETS SLAB
TERM TOMORROW
Petit in Line for Go at New
York-Tribe ToppIed
Second Time.
BY JOHN B. KELLER.

~ YOU'LL have to beat the
~ Yankees to get the pen
nant." They are talking
that way again in the
American League and it sounds right.
Bucky Harris believes it, so he is
prepared to throw everything the
Washington ball club has at the
Bronx band the next two days.
The Yanks, with great record
for the stand on their own lot against
the Western invaders, will come into
Griffith Stadium tomorrow to open
a three-game series, their first here
this season.
According to Manager Harris, they
will see plenty left-hand hurting
while they are in the Nationals ball
yard. Bob Burke will start against
the Clan Mccarthy tomorrow, as
plans now are. and the Washington
pilot figures he might take a chance
on Leon Petit, too. One of the
games will be up to the right-handing
Bump Hadley.
Burke lost tough argument to
the Yanks in New York last month.
The stringbean southpaw limited them
to two runs, but the Nationals did
not get any, for Goofy Gomez that
day was in fine fettle and allowed
no more than four hits.
The other two games Of that series
were hard fought, with the Nationals
being nosed out in one when the
Yanks unlimbered their heavy artil-
lery in the last two innings and
winning the other with a three-run
rally in the ninth.

Too Much Speed.

Too Much Speed.
JIMMY McLARNIN. a fine little
fighter and a much harder
~ puncher than Barney Ross, still
must face heavy handicap in
Barney's greater speed.
Both are smart enough and game
enough, and both know how to box,
but the hand speed and foot speed
that Ross carries into action looks to
be more than McLarnin's punch can
match.
Thousands still are disputing the
net returns Of their first 80 rounds,
but the picture that still remains shows
Barneys greater speed dominating
both contests.
McLarnin can meet this situation
only by slowing Ross down with few
solid punches, and the fast-moving
Barney is no easy target to tag on a
vulnerable spot.
The race may not be to the swift.
but that is where to look, as q philoSo-
pher remarked
McLarnin must carry the wear and
tear of many ring wars, going back
a long way in the fighting fame. while
Ross is just coming to the blend of
youth and experience, a combination
full Of trouble for any rival in the road.

A fourth, University of California at

ore man, Jimmy Luvalle. who won
the I. C. A. A. A. A. 400-meter title
in 1888
The Trojans, favorites because of
smashing victories over all Western
opposition, were bothered by financial
troubles. and it was doubtful whether
money-raising schemes would bring
in the $4,000 necessary for a full
team, but Coach Dean Cromwell nam
ed 10 men as a nucleus to make the
trip.
May Score 40 Points.
THOUGH Cromwell said. "of
~ course, it would take more than
10 to win this championship,
it appeared possible the group might
amass in the neighborhood of 40
points. Those picked were Foy

Phil Cope and Roy Staley, high hur-
dies; Gil Strother, low hurdles; Earle

CTANFORD'S slender prospects for

go on, Jimmie, you tell 'em,"
joshed his old companion Of cham
pionship days with the Athletics, AL
Simmons. You better take advantage
of your opportunities now, with all
these newspaper men and photog-
raphers giving you so much extra
attention.
Novel to Get Attention.
~ you boys know that's the tip-off, ~
added Simmons, turning to a
group Of sports writers. Its
been years since you've given the
White Sox a tumble. We've been
pinching ourselves to make sure we
are on top, but know it's true now.
BY no means reluctant to take the
floor again, Dykes continued:
Its like this and it's very simple
We are getting more hitting and bet
ter pitching than We expected and the
whole club is hustling with renewed
spirit. Old man Simmons here is
playing the best ball he has shown in
years; he's covering an acre in center
field and giving our younger hitters
lots of good advice. Our defense is
tighter.
The big difference with the club,
compared to last year. is the way our
infielders have developed. Hayes and
Appling have filled big holes and they
are both hitting, especially Hayes
Then, too, Luke Sewell's catching has
steadied the whole pitching staff
Luke has had a lot to do with the
sensational work of Johnny White
head, our recruit star.
Whitehead Real Pitcher.
"DON'T let anybody tell you this
- Whitehead is a flash. He's got
plenty of stuff-a real fast ball,
fair curve and a sinker that has
had the boys breaking their backs try
ing to hit
THE reason Whitehead weakened
in the ninth inning against the Red
Sox Sunday was that he had spent
most of the previous night bowling.
Can you imagine that?
I didn't tlnd out about it until
after he had pitched. I think maybe
he will stick to pitching from now on.
He's won six in row and he will win
lot more for U.s."

Hadley Shows Courage.

iuADLEY was a flimsy pitcher in
his old days with the Nationals
He went en- the hill with every
thing a pitcher needed to win ball
game. But when the clutch came
Bump was not there.
Perhaps it was the shock of his
sudden transfer to the White Sox
that brought Bump around A change
like that has been known to bring
a ball player into his true stride
But actually it was his shift from
the White Sox to the Browns that
made Hadley the pitcher he is today
With poor club he had to work
on his own and it seems that
made him realize the possibilities
he possesses in a pitching way.
Backing Bump in yesterdays pas
timing was another makeshift Wash
ington lineup. With Lyn Larry still
on the sick list and the st. Louis club
showing a left-hander on the hill
Manager Harris had to use at short
stop OsSie Bluege, the feeble hitter,
and in right field instead of Jack
Stone, weak batter against left
handed pitching, the disappointing
Fred Schultz.
Well, this turned out pretty we'll.
The Browns were off to a one-run
lead in the fourth frame, due to a
passed ball charged against Cliff Boil
ton. but in the fifth the Washington
ball club won the ball game.

BLAEH0LDER GOES

Browns Get Coleman and
Cain-Game Here Today
Is Called Off.
IF CLARK GRIFFITH still enter

IF CLARK GRIFFITH still enter
tains any hopes of landing George
Blaeholder, right-handed pitching
mainstay of the Browns for the
last seven years. he will have to break
precedent of % years standing and
deal with Connie Mack. While rumors
of a possible trade between Griffith
and Rogers HornSby. manager of the
st. Louis entry, flew here, Hornsby to-
day announced the trade of Blae-
holder to the Athletics for Ed Cole
man, outfielder, and Merritt Sugar
Cain. pitcher.
Coleman and Cain were expected to
join the Browns here today, but only
for practice. as the scheduled contest
with the Nationals was postponed on
account of wet grounds. Coleman,
announced Hornsby, will play right
field if Bucky Harris employs right
handed pitcher in the final of the
series here tomorrow Cain will take
Blaeholders' place as a regular slab
starter.
Hornsby, declaring that he would
trade anyone if it would help the
Browns in their rebuilding program, "
admitted that Griffith had been talk
ing of landing Rlaeholder, but that the
Washington Club prexy offered moth
ing that sounded as good as Coleman
and Cain.
The trade would seem to make the
Nationals chances of landing Blae-
holder slim. Only once since Griffith
has been at the helm of the WASH
ington Club has he and Connie Mack
figured in a trade and that lone ex-
ception was a ee-cornered affair in
1922 which resulted in Bing Miller's
transfer to the Athletics and the &C
QUESTION of Roger Peckinpaugh from
Boston.

was paid out, in addition
to Luke Sewell, for obtaining Bump
Hadley from the Browns it was feared
in some quarters an unwarranted ex-
penditure had been made.
Hadley has a record of four wins
against three losses since he returned
to the Capital. but he has merited an
even better mark. all of which makes
the deal rate as sound investment,
especially considering the impressive
performance he gave in the 8-to-2
triumph he registered yesterday
against the Browns, his former team
mates.
Bump has pitched much better base
ball than his record shows. When he
was beaten by the Tigers the other
day, for instance. he was far better
than losing pitcher. But for a flock
OF errors back of him he would have
given the Detroit ball club a great
battle.
In that game Hadley did a remark
able piece Of pitching. After the de-
feat Manager Bucky Harris asserted
he was quite satisfied with what Bump
had done despite the outcome of the
fray. In fact, Bucky felt that Hadley.
regardless Of the licking. had estab-
lished himself as the mainstay of the
Washington curving corps.
AS past performances go Hadley is
one of those pitchers that requires a
deal of prodding. When he was with
the Nationals formerly it was sus-
pected he did not have any particular
heart to win. But since his return to
the Washington ball club after terms
with the White Sox and the Browns
1t is believed he has experienced a
change of heart.

Stingy With Hits.

nTADLEY was so good that up to
the eighth inning the st. Louis
crowd got but two hits and one
run. But the Nationals had made
five runs over Russell Van Alta be-
fore that so it did not matter. Van
Alta went wild in the fifth and walked
three after a hit. then two hits fol-
lowed. The clouting was done by
kuhel, Powell and Bolton.
The Browns got another run off
Hadley in the eighth when they
punched three hits, one very scratchy.
But the Nationals came right back
to get three. They socked Ivy An
drews, who had succeeded Jim
Walkup. Three hits were made off
Andrews to make the Nationals total
for the day 10.
And that flock of Washington hits,
somewhat extraordinary the way the
club had been going, looked very good
against the five yielded by Hadley
IN his second full game of the season.
