The proposition which Griffith and

with Cleveiend falls through and the
Yankees maintain their attitude OF
indifference, then it would not be sur
prising if some time late today a
Chicago Washington deal was made
wherein Whitehill and Joe Kuhel
would go to the Windy City club for
Tietje and Zeke Bonura, the elephan-
tine first baseman.
Bonura is not the bah player that
is Kuhel, but he packs more punch at
bat and Is more dangerous. Tietje
never may be Whitehill, but Les is
young and Earl Is getting on in years.
At any rate. a deal involving the Ma
tionaIs seems due today. If it doesn't
happen then 1t might be wise not to
expect anything for tho time being.

~ greens are slow and condi-
n tions are not so good for
low scoring"
It's the best bit of advice Fred Nc
Leod can give any golfer for play
during the Winter time, and he firmly
believes in it himself. BE up to the
cup. A putt from behind the hole
isn't any harder than a putt from
short of the cup"
Winter conditions are not so good
for scoring, Fred admits, but he doesn't
see the reason for any severe disparity
between scoring in the Summer and
in the Winter, despite heavy clothing,
slow courses and general unsatisfac-
tory conditions. Everything is done
to make the courses easier" Fred
points out.
They are shortened probably by
400 or SOC yards, you can tee the ball
in the fairway to get a fair shot at it,
but despite all these advantages, there
isn't any doubt that golf scoring gen.
orally takes a jump in the Winter. Most
of it probably is because the player
does not use enough club or because
he is short with his approaches and
long puts.
Hard to Change Habits.
ITS hard to forget past experience
in golf Back in the Summer when
the ball few long distances under a
warm sun, lots of golfers got home on
the ninth hole of this Columbia course
with a drive and an iron club, playing
from the back tee. Today when they
hit good drive from the front tee,
they think they can get home again
with an iron. They find themselves
short of the green. when they could
reach II if they took a wooden club.
Habit is hard thing to overcome in
golf, and We can grow into bad habits
without knowing it."
Fred is one of the better clippers
anywhere. But he hesitates to give
advice on the club to use from just of
the putting surface these Winter days.
use the club which you find gets the
ball closest to the hole" he says.
But generally it is better to use a
fairly fat-faced iron, say, a No. or
No. 3. and run the ball than to pitch
it. Pitch shots of soft ground are
uncertain. The blade may 60 a little
deep and the shot is ruined. But
even If you miss run-up shot little
bit. the ball still will roll fairly close.
But always be up. You will be sur
prised to find you will hole a chip
shot every once in a while if you
make sure Of getting the ball up to or
past the hole"

There are several points
Connected with the Olympic
~ debate which seem to be
generally overlooked. One is that
Germany has nothing to do with
running the Olympic games. These
games are handled by an interna-
tional directorate. In the second
place it would be rather odd to
have the United States as the only
Nation in the world so perfect that
it couldn't afford to mingle with
the other 81 or 50 competing ma
tions. a.
The year of the Olympic games
brings greatly increased interest in
athletics all over the map. The
hope or thought of making the
United States team has a healthy
appeal to thousands Of younger
stars. The United States staying
out would certainly not break up
the big Olympic show, but it would
hit the United States fully as hard
as it would Germany.

JACOBS IN SADDLE
AS R|NGMEN PLAN
Will Have Hand in Game if

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, December 11.-Still
M a bit dizzy from the speed
with which arrangements were
completed yesterday for Joe
Louis to fight Max Schmeling next
Summer, Promoter Mike Jacobs looked
around today and realized that if any
one battles Jimmy Braddock for the
heavyweight title next year he will
have hand in the affair.
Jacobs controls Louis ring activities
for the next flve years, and as things
stand now Joe is the No. contender.
There can't be title bout for any
one else unless he is disposed Of The
New York State Athletic Commission
made that clear yesterday in refusing
to approve a Schmeling- -Braddock
match unless Schmeling first met the
Brown Bomber from Detroit.
AS a result of that refusal the COM
mand performance was settled in little
or no time. The negotiations ran
something like this:
Commissioners: NO"
Schmeling: "All right. I'll fight
Louis"
Jacobs: Let's CO."
Sees Million Dollar Gate.
TT THEN required about 10 minutes
in Jacobs office for Schmeling to
agree to 15-round battle with Louis
at the Yankee Stadium in June.
Each fighter will get 80 per cent of
the gate, which Mike says will be
more than 81 l,000,o 900, after the milk
fund has skinned 10 per cent of the
top. If Schmeling wins, Jacobs has
an option on his services for the next
year.
Louis already has a Winter sched-
ule Of three fights, meeting Pauline
Uzcudun at Madison Square Garden
next Friday, Isidor Gastanaga in Ha-
vana December 90, and Charley Ret
zlaff in Chicago January 81. If any
one Of these should upset Louis, which
seems quite unlikely, he would step
into the Negro's shoes as ranking
challenger.
That wouldn't bring any great
change in the lineup. All three are
fighting under the same terms as
Schmeling, agreeing to hook up with
Jacobs in event of victory.
