Mr.. Ii Plummer played Is holes
on Saturday so as to get all of his
bad golf out of his system but
apparently he failed to get it all
out and what was disposed of en-
tered into Willie Pious Watkins
system so that Bill could do no
better than 45-46. 1t seems that
Ii and Willie elected to play
Cookie Mesa and Russell Kerr
again but Russell and Cooke are
much too much of a take. They
had sc strokes each and won by
IA up which means they won or
tied on near,y every hole Mr..
Watkins expects to play against
Roy Lade and Pete Taylor after
this, providing Roy or Pete will
give him about 10 strokes handi-
cap.

Mr.. George Pro Dodge got a
couple of 37's, which was one
stroke better than Curly-locks
Josie Lopez could do. Mr.. Os-
good Kemp was up among the
prophets with 38-40, while Mr..
key Parks was doing pretty good
himself when he made 40-43.
Mr.. Handsome Horace 0'Bryant
had to sink few long puts to
tie Mr.. Bridge-builder Al West
and Mr.. Professor came near not
beating Mr.. Duke of Rock Sound.
However, Mr.. Old Bye says that
he had too much Sands in his
shoes when playing number ! or
he would have been the winner by
a couple of strokes.
1t seems that Johnny Jumpin
Jehosophat Kirschenbaum is get
ting to be such good golfer and
Mr.. Hurricane Eddie Strunk is
getting to be such a punk golfer
that they have had to change
places and so now Doc Willie PEN
ababe Kemp has to tote Eddie all
over the course. Doc was able to
do "a strokes while Eddie was
trying out his new "stream-lined"
driver and made 42-42. On the
opposite team were Charlie Salas
with 85 and Kirsch with 80. How
ever Mr.. Strunk was able to go
home in peace because he had as
many skins as all the rest put to-
gether. Mr.. Cupid Melvin Russell
has been delegated to referee the
match because his score has be-
gun to drop to such low figure
that he overbalanced the team.

DO you think she could nave
fouled her keel on a lobster line
and later dropped it?" he was ask
ed.
That's entirely possible" Sop
with said. There must be some
explanation for it. We took such
hiding going down the last two
legs that I thought it only fair to
bring her up here and give her a
looking over"
Sopwith asked for a postpone
ment at the end of Mondays race
to find out what happened, but
he said he is all ready to 60 down
to sea again tomorrow and - if
seafaring prophets in these parts
are right-take another beating.
The mystery of Endeavour IFS
collapse Monday, after a brilliant
start which apparently had given
her a good margin on the weather
leg, was divided into two views.
The first is that Ranger is bet
ter boat "a super-sloop with a
super skipper, able to outfoot and
outsail Endeavour II in any kind
of going. 1t is the view most gen.
orally shared by the experts who
abound in this place.
The second view is that Endea-
YOUR II has not been given the
benefit of good sailing in either
of the cup races that she has
been pinched going into the wind
and has had the wrong canvas on
reaches away from the wind.
The answer may be found in
both views. In any event, SopWith
tonight was in precisely the spot
Vanderbilt was in three years ago
when Rainbow was two down to
SopWith and took the series with
four in a row.
Endeavour II will go out with a
new Genoa jib tomorrow, 1000
pounds less ballast and no lobster
pots tagged to her keel. If there
is a good wind, things may be diff
ferent. The Providence weather
bureau forecast Fair weather,
moderate northerly winds becom-

the line. Johnny Murphy was call
ed in and got the side out.
With Whitehead pitching one of
the best games of his career, the
Sox looked in. He got Crosetti out,
but Rolfe dropped a single to left.
Then DiMaggio sent a high pop
fly to right. Walker couldn't quite
reach it, and Rolfe pulled up at
third and DiMaggio at second.
Gehrig was purposely passed, fill
ing the bases.
Up at the plate ambled knock
kneed Bill Dickey. He held his bat
on his shoulder, straight and taut,
as Whitehead Whizzed over a high
one. Ball one. Then Whitehead
blazed away with his fast ball.
Dickey connected with a tremen-
douS swing. The ball sailed more
than 400 feet into the right field
stnds, and the White SoX victory
took wings with it.
-Four runs trotted in to the
deafening thunder of one of the
mightiest roars Yankee stadium
ever heard. Straw hats, papers and
programs sailed onto the field. At
tendants had to come out on the
field to clear the debris. The crowd
was sill yelling when Whitehead
finally got the side out.
The Yanks made only eight hits
off Whitehead, and all day col
lected only II blows. But what
hits five homers spelling II
runs with four of them over 400
feet and one just short of that dis
tanCe.
AS Jimmy Dykes remarked un-
der the shower afterwards, IF it
isn't one of those damn Yanks it's
another. I hope we get out of here

EndeavOur Il Is
British Mystery
Change Rig
SOpwith Is Bewildcred at
the Poor Showing of
His Sloop
BY THEON WRIGHT
United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent,
Newport, r. l., Aug. 3.-fU.R)-
A thoroughly bewildered sailing
man in white SlackS, short
s,eeved shirt and a battered can
vas sea hat walked around the
bronze and blue hull of his trim
racing sloop up at Bristors ship
yards today, trying 10 figure out
what happened to Britain's "Mys-
terry Ship" Endeavour II.
About the only mystery left is
why the British challenger for the
Americas Cup can't make race
of it against Harold Vanderbilt's
Ranger, the American defender.
On her two shoWings to date the
British entry would have been a
set-up for a cat-rigged dory out
there on the rolling Atlantic where
he worlds ritziest sailing Suprerl-
acy is being fought for. and T. o.
M. Sopwith, her owner and skip
per, is quite as baffled about 1t as
the rest of the seagoing people in
this port.
The concenSus of experts, after
Mondays race in which Endeavour
II took the worst trimming any
cup yacht has suffered in fifty
years, was:
mo good boat can be that bad"
AS SopWith paced around the
sleek cutter, perched high on
stills in the Herreshoff Marine
Yards, he shook his head Wearily
and said:
I'VE can't understand what
happened"
Endeavour II came over here
with high-powered advance no
ticeS, limiting that she was a Won
der boat. She beat Endeayour, the
defeated challenger in the 1884
series, and yachtsmen had tabled
the original Endeavour the fastest
J-class sloop in cup racing his
tory in spite of the licking she
took from the old maestro Of cup
racing, Iron Mike" Vanderbilt.
But once Endeavour II went out
on the racing lanes she blew up
like a split spinnaker, losing by
two miles in the first race and
three miles in the second.
Sopwith thought she might have
snagged a lobster pot ponderous
fishermen'S traps which lie along
the bottom of the race course.
Strung by wires or creased ropes
to bobbing buoy markers, but
when Endeavour II was pulled out
of the water at Bristol today drip
ping and bright, there was not a
scratch on her tapering keel and
her bottom was as slick as her
polished deck.

rates gained a game and half
when they defeated the Brooklyn
Dodgers twice, 5-4, and l0-4. Al
though or.hit l4-10 in the open
er, the Bucs pushed over two runs
in the ninth to triumph. The
Dodgers held 4-3 lead since the
fourth inning when pinch-hitter
Arky Vaughan singled to open the
ninth. Lloyd Waner was safe on
an infield rape, and both men
were sacrificed by Jensen. Paul
Waner was purposely passed, fill
ing the bases, and Gus Suhr fol-
lowed with a single for the tying
and winning runs. Brown ana
Bauers combined to hold the
Dodgers to nine scattered hits in
the windup, while the Pirates rak-
ed Max Butcher for l4-four OF
them going to Catcher AL Todd
who batted in three runs with a
pair of triples, double and single.
A tight pitchers duel between
Jim Turner of the Boston Bees

with two mates aboard that gave
the Cards a 5-3 decision. johnson

The Park N Blow after having
