Records Threatened
As 63 Gard Is or
Better 10 Open
148 Is Seen as Limit
For Qualifying; Trio
Deadlock for Lead
BY BILL BONI,
Associated Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK. July 1O.-Having
proved to their own satisfaction that
they can stick together and win
battles of the links as well as on,
the best golf professionals in the
country settled down today to
qualify for match play in the ma
tional P. G. A. championship.
Starting the second and final
round over the Pomonok Country
Club course this morning, 63 players
had scores of 73 or better. Since
there are only 63 places open in the
man-to-man fighting the 64th
automatically goes to Defending
Champion Paul Runyan), it ap-
peared likely that by tonight only
those with 36-hole totals of 148 or
better would be eligible.
Within easy striking distance were
all but one of the petition-signers
who, by their determined stand,
yesterday forced five members of the
P. G. A. Executive Committee to
permit former Champion Denny
Shute to play, although, under the
bylaws, he was ruled out for not
paying his dues on time.
Snead Far Behind.
The lone but major exception was
Sam Snead, the big hitter whose
power got out of hand over the back
nine and brought him in with II
blows, nine strokes off the lead
shared by Ralph Guldahl and two
lesser-known contenders, Sam Parks
of Pittsburgh and Fay Coleman of
Culver City, Calf.
Todays firing promised to be even
more dazzling, for yesterday, in addi-
ton to having to play l8 holes of
golf after wrangling for several
hours, the boys had to get their
sights adjusted to the new positions
of the pins. Now, they should
threaten both the competitive course
record of IS, set by Johnny Farrell
in 1927, and the P. G. A. qualifying
record of 1856
In addition to Guldahl, Coleman
and Parks, 10 others cracked par
yesterday and 20 equaled it. In
the former bracket were Ben Hogan,
Harry Cooper, Dick Metz, Henry
Picard, Dutch Harrison and Gene
Sarazen, with Open Champion
Byron Nelson among those at par r.
Big Rumpus in Offing.
The after effects of the Shute
rumpus remain to be seen. Perhaps
the top-fight pros, those who an
nually make the summer and winter
circuits, will pick this opportunity
to break away from the P. G. A. and
form touring professional associa-
ton. Perhaps nothing more will
develop until the annual P. G.. A.
meeting in November. But at that
time it's a double-dyed cinch the
long-standing Chicago-New York
feud will be due for another extern
sive airing.
It was this war between factions
that brought the Shute case into
such prominence. With Horton
Smith rumored as a candidate for
the presidency when George Jacobus'
term expires, and the Chicagoans
reputedly hoping to get back the
Tournament Bureau job for Bob
Harlow, who preceded Fred Cor
coran, the incumbent, the boys may
be in for merry session.
But for the present, at least, they
can concentrate on golf.

The impression gets around that
chunky little Rut Coffey. the smiling
young pro from Winchester, Va,
who has done pretty well in his few
appearances around Washington, is
fairly close to being one of the top
pro golfers in this sector. Rut today
shouldn't miss qualifying for the
match play rounds in the P. G. A.
championship at Pomonok, with a
first-round 70 behind him to lead
the mid-Atlantic qualifers. He won
one of the three places in this sector
last month in playof with Andy
Gibson and today he tops all the
local lads. Cliff Spencer of Beaver
Dam is on the edge of non-qualifi-
cation with II and Mel Shorey, who
led the local field, is virtually out
with first-round 81.
Should Play More Journeys.
Coffey, with more tournament golf
under his belt, would be good COM
petitor. The young man who belts
the ball so far plays in few tourna-
ments. He has winter job at Ever
glades, Fla, about IS miles from
Miami, and he hasn't played the
tournament circuit. If he did he

Beaver Dam and Capital Club
golfers today were celebrating VIC
tories over Argyle and Catoctin of
Frederick, Md, while Congress
sional's team was looking ahead to
a September match for revenge on
a Hermitage team which trounced
them at Richmond. The Beaver
Dam golfers treated their Argyle
hosts to a 17-to-13 licking at the
-Four Corners course, while Capital
didn't act at all chubby toward their
guests from Frederick, trouncing
them by score of 171a to 1917.
At Richmond Witty Cox and his
Congressional gang absorbed their
second defeat in two days, losing to
Hermitage by 121z to 51a. They lost
Saturday to the Country Club of
Virginia by the same score. The
big surprise was the licking Cox and
George Neville took at the hands of
Whitlow and Beck of Hermitage,
when the local team dropped three
points.

Still Spooky Choroeter,
Despite Loss Of Speed

This year, as usual, Charley was
the first choice of the voters for
second baseman on the American
Leagues All-Star team. He has a
bad leg, however, and Joe Gordon
will take his place. In fact, there
are those who feel that Gordon and
Bobby Doerr already are the equals
of the ghost at second base, If not
his betters.
They think Charley has gone back.
Well, it probably is true that he
doesn't float as swiftly over the in
field as he did in the days when
he was just young ha'nt, knee
high to Hamlet's father. But he
still is a pretty spooky character,
1nasmuch as he continues to field
his position in low whisper and
to make no mistakes.
Another gentleman whose face
will be missed at Yankee Stadium
IS Leo Durocher. It's solemn and
sinister fact that the National
leagues All-Star team never has
won without Leo in the lineup. and
never has failed to lose when he was
absent.
1--WE should have him in there, if
only as a mascot" says the anxious
Leland Stanford MacPhail, Leo's
employer. II seem to see the Italian
hand of William Terry in this out
tage."
Inasmuch as Terry has only one
italian hand, Zeke Bonura, and in
asmuch as MacPhail never could see
Bonura at all, we may attribute the
whole thing to dyspepsia. But
they'll miss Leo Durocher in there.

From the
Press Box
Gehringer Great Loss
To AII-Stor Froy
By JOHN LARDNER,

NEW YORK, July 10 (N.ANA).-
This-tomorrow-wi be the first
All-Star ball game of which Charley
Gehringer, the gray ghost of the De-
troit infleld, has not played every
inning. At least, having seen them
all, I don't remember an inning
without the ghost.
Charley is an easy guy to overlook.
He sifts around in the background
like a graceful ectoplasm in Lon
don fog, making the plays that come
his way. It's only when he fails to
make the play that he jerks the GUS
toners to their feet with the sudden
realization that Charles is out there
and leaves them with the after
thought that the Dutchman is
human after all.
The thing I remember best about
Charley in All-Star competition was
the one mistake he made And
even that mistake was pretty ecto-
plasmic Charley merely haunted
the error from a distance, leaving
most of the spectators to conclude
that James Emory FoXx was the
villain.
Difference in Systems
Got Gehrineer Error
The play occurred last year at
Cincinnati. Leo Durocher laid down
q bunt toward third base, FoXx's
position. Foxx and Lou Gehrig
both charged in as Durocher made
his motion. Foxx fielded the ball
and hurled it across first base, where
there was absolutely no one'to inter-
cept it. 1t travelled into right field
and two runs scored
Most people thought FoXx had
made a wild throw, but as matter
of fact it was a true one. Some
people wondered why Gehrig wasn't
there to catch the ball. Among
these was Charles Gehringer. Some
people wondered why Gehringer
failed to cover the bag. Among
these was Mr.. Gehrig.
The reason for the whole unhappy
misunderstanding lay in the fact
that the Detroit and Yankee clubs
use different systems on bunts. The
Yankee first baseman comes in on
the bunt regardless of where it
goes. The second baseman covers
FIRST. In Detroit the first baseman
covers the bag unless the bunt is
right up his alley.
In other words. Mr.. Gehringer's
mistake was nothing more criminal
than failing to make allowance for
the Yankees happy-go-lucky system
of play. 1t wasn't much of mis-
take. Frankly I am ashamed of
myself for remembering it. But
do. That's what the gray ghost of
Detroit gets for being perfect SO
per cent of the time.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 9.-Sudden re-
Taxation of the campaign against
Belgium and the Netherlands in the
German press was noted yesterday
by foreign office spokesman who
expressed the opinion that the medi-
alton offer Of King Leopold and
Queen Wilhelmina had gained its
point.
Observers said they felt the offer
would increase the difficulty of any
immediate violation of Belgian or
Netherlands neutrality that might
have been intended by the warning
powers.
Some military precautions, how
ever, have been taken in the last "a
hours, the spokesman said, includ-
Ing routine calling of several thou
sand men to the colors.
German troop concentrations near
the Netherlands frontier were noted.

style to the art Of two-piano play
Ing. This was the first appearance
OF these artists with the National
Symphony although they have been
heard here before at Mrs. Lawrence
Townsend's musicales.
For the orcheStra's share of the
program, DR.. Kinder had chosen a
group Of Bach numbers in his own
arrangement, the Adagietto from
Mahler's symphony No. 5" con-
cluding with the Tannhauser Over
ture.
Feeling for Vitality of Bach.
DR.. Kinder has a keen feeling
for the tremendous vitality of Bach
and his transcriptions take this into
account. The Grave and Allegro
from the organ Concerto in G
Major" is a gorgeous work, all-em-
bracing in its sorority and surging
flow Of melody. The sweep of this
powerful and noble music seems to
reach beyond the ordinary tonal
horizon and musical dimension. It
Is sturdy with a great strength and
richly wholesome with a deep and
righteous feeling. Following this
came the beautiful "Komm, Suesser
Tod" and the Aria and Sinfonia to
Cantata No. 20, "Wir danken dir.
Gott." These contrasting works, a
small example Of the great versa
tility Of Bach, we're given a finely
drawn Interpretation by the or
chestra whose tonal depth increases
from concert to concert.
This only two-piano concerto
written by Mozart embodies all the
spirited and song-like qualities
which seemed to bubble forth so
freely in this unique composer. It
is full of the effectiveness that
pianists enjoy and the two artists
last evening made the most of it.
Their fluent technique was lightly
controlled with a particularly Joy
GUS exuberence in the Rondo. Their
reading of the Andante was tender
and poetic, their tone blending i'm
perceptibly with the woodwinds, .
"Castellana" Presented.
Immediately following the inter.
mission they were heard again, this
time in the Spanish rhythms of
Mrs. Howe's "Castellana. The
synopsis, If one might so term it, of
Spanish life which this work based
on four Spanish folk songs gives, is
full of the picturesque, and beauti-
fully woven together with construc.
tive skill. There is no redundancy
or overemphasis in this writing. It
passes from one mood to another
smoothly, linking them together with
naturalness that adds to its charm.
Mr.. Luboshutz, who played the first
piano in this number, has a fitting
grace and piquancy of touch that
gave, with slight accent here or
there, the whole character to the
work. Both artists played with fire
and brilliancy and were splendidly
supported by the orchestra in the
flne accompaniment that Mrs. Howe
has written for it.
A bit Of exQuisitely poetic COM
