Battle Seen Between
Sarazen, Hagen Teams

DETROIT, July 5.-R-Gene
Sarazen's challengers tee off
against Walter Hagen's Ryder
cup team over the long, difficult
Oakland Hills course tomorrow and
if the battle is anything like the
verbal tits between fiery Gene and
the Haig, it should be the goling
classic of the year.
The rival captains clashed today
over final arrangements, with Sar-
azen contending that since it's a
Ryder cup match the solid, gold
trophy should 60 the victor.
There's going to- be a kidnapping
Of a trophy if they don't give us
the Ryder cup if we win," Gene
declared. We've been told this
was an official match with the
Ryder cup team and we're out to
beat their pants off. I think every
man on the team should have the
cup to display for a month as a
reward for v~ictory-if it isn't a
Ryder cup match why did they
send the cup here?"
That was the latest outburst over
the two-day match, which is ex-
pected to draw $25, 900 for Red
Cross war relief. l

Chicago Withstands Rally By
Champs In Eighth To Win;
Kuhel Gets 18th Homer

NEW YORK. July 15.-R-The
Chicago White Sox STAYED off an
eighth-inning uprising by the New
York Yankees today to win a 80
decision and snap a four-game win
ming streak of the world cham
pions.
Lefty Ed Smith, who has been
one of New York's tormentors all
season, blanked the Yanks on five
hits until the eighth and when they
finally solved him it was too late.
The Yanks put together four hits
for two runs and chased Smith in
the eighth inning, but Pete Apple
ton took over and ended the threat
by forcing pinch hitter Tom Hen
rich to foul out with the bases
loaded.
The deciding run proved to be
Joe Kuhel's 18th home run in the
eighth inning, the White Sox col
lected their first run in the third
OF Smiths single, a walk and a
double by Mike Kreevich. The 9TH

Appling singled and went to third

away, and Bob Kennedy singled

Odds On Armstrong Continue
To Drop As Bout Time Nears
BY SID FEEDER

NEW YORK, July 15.-R-The
wild waves went whacky along
Jacobs beach today.
The fight mob just couldn't get
together on what's going to happen
when Henry Armstrong and Lew
Je1kins collide in the Polo
grounds ring Wednesday night, in
a battle that promises to be the
biggest, financially, in Armstrong;
skyrocket career.
The fellows who make their meat
and potatoes out of the business
still e as wide apart as the top
and bottom of a club sandwich
when the lightweight champion
and the welterWeight boss put the
finishing touches on their training
today.
Two things, they believed, were
definite:
1-Armstrong, woeful in training
and no longer the little dark de-
stroyer who held three champion
ships simultaneously, will have to
snap out of it in a hurry if he
hopes to take care of the Texas
thin man. He can't afford to fool
around in the early going.
2-Jenkins, who came in sudden
ly from his mountain training
camp at Grossinger's lake to wind
up his gym work at Stillman's.
was punching just as good as ever
and he's riding now on a streak
of eight straight knockouts.
One funny thing about the whole
set-up was that, while one and all
admit Armstrong has been cuffed
around freely by his sparring part
ners, most of the fight managers
who sun themselves along the 49th
street sidewalk beach figure he
will be in there swinging the same
as ever come Wednesday. Yet, de-
spite the opinion of these folks '.in
the know" the betting men con-
tinued to cut the price today. A
week ago, they had Hammerin'
Hennery at l to 3 to take care of.
the newly crowned lightweight
champion. Today, you were lucky
to get 5 to 9.
On the strength of jenkins
punching power and Armstrong;
apathy in training, I pick long-shot
Lew to stop Armstrong for the first
time in his career somewhere
the 12-round route. This Sc.
lection is made despite the warn
ing of Eddie Mead, Hennery's stout
that Armstrong is going
to wear jenkins down with BODY
punches and put him away in six
or seven rounds.
All the weight ballyhoo and hot
air having been released in ad.
vance, the scales were called in
today and showed everything lust
about as expected. jenkins tipped
the beam at 1875, and Armstrong
was lao on the nose" /

HUDSON ALLOWS
BUT SEVEN HITS
Senators Score Six Runs Off
Milnar In First Two Frames
To Climb In Loop

WASHINGTON, July Is. -R-
Cleveland lost it's American league
lead and a game to the Washington
Senators today. Washington won an
S-e victory behind the 7-hit pitching
of towering Sid Hudson and thereby
moved out of the cellar into sixth
place.
Hudson pitched no-hit ball for five
innings-until Rollie Hemsley dou-
bled in launching the sixth. Roy
Weatherly was the only Indian to
reach base previously, gaining first
on Shortstop Jimmy Pofahl's error in
the fourth inning.
Washington bounced on Al Milnar
for six runs in the first two innings,
adding single runs in the seventh
and eighth as Cleveland hoped or
the weakening Hudson to produce
two runs in each of the sixth, sew
enth and ninth innings.
The Senators nicked Milnar for a
run in the second inning when jim
my Bloodworth singled to left, moved
to third on Buddy Myers sharp sin
gle to center, and scored Is Short
stop Lou Boudreau fumbled Jimmy
Pofahl's grounder.
Milnar was shelled for five runs
in the third inning. George Case
raped a single off Ken Keltner's

start the inning. After Gerald Walk
err flied out Case and Lewis nego-
tiated a double steal and Zeke Bo-
nura was purposely passed filling the
bases.
Bloodworth rammed a single over
Jeff Heath's head in left field but
only Case scored, Lewis feeling the
ball would be caught and only reach
ing third in the midst of confusion
on the base-paths.
Myer walked, forcing in Lewis and
leaving the bases filled, and after
Pofahl fouled out Rick Terrell drilled
a double to left, scoring Bonura,
Bloodworth and Myer.
After Hemsley destroyed Hudson's
hopes of a no-hitter the Indians pro-
duced two runs. Hemsley dashed a
double to left to launch the sixth
and after Hudson retired Pinch-hitter
Soup Campbell and Ben Chapman,
Roy Weatherly singled to center,
scoring Hemsley, and continued to
second as Hudson muffed Cases
throw to the plate. Boudreau sin
gled to right to score Weatherly.
Cleveland whitfield the score to GA
in the seventh inning, singles by Ray
Mack, Hemsley and Weatherly pro-
ducing two runs, but Washington in
creased it's lead to IA in it's half of
the inning when Walker tripled to

deep to Chapman.
Washington scored its final run in
the eighth when Hudson doubled

FARLEY WILL HEAD
BUYING SYNDICATE
Contract For 100000 Sub

To Farley's Lawyers
Bv EARL HILLIGAN

balls richest holding--the Worlc
championship New York Yankees
probably will be sold within two
weeks to a syndicate headed by
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley, it was disclosed today by At
torney Jeremiah T. Mahoney Of
New York.
Mahoney, attorney for George
Rupert, brother of the late Col
Jacob Rupert, said a contract
calling for a price of 81, 600, 900 has
been submitted by the Rupert es'
tate to Farley's legal representa-
tive and added 1.-The transaction
has gone from the speculatory to
the very realistic stage"
The announcement by Mahoney
famed long persistent reports thai
Farley planned to resign as chair
man of the National Democratic
Committe but the democratic
leader smilingly declined to COM
NIT himself when informed of Ma
money 5 SLdte11leIlt.
"As I said this morning, Farley
grinned, that song Take Me Out
To the Ball Came that they play
ed this morning at the stadium,
sounded all right"
Mahoney, former president of
the Amateur Athletic Union and
now a director of the Rupert
Brewing company, explained the
projected deal simply, saying, I'VE
need money to meet inheritance
taxes"
Since the death of Col. Rupert
at the age of II in January, 1889,
there has been much speculation
on the ultimate ownership of the
club and its subsidiaries, which
include the Newark team of the
International league and the Kan
sas City club Of the American AS
sociation. The New York Yankee
stadium, home field of the team
which has won four straight world
championships, is assessed at ST.
500, 900.
At Col. Rupert's death ownership
passed to three women. Two were
nieces, Mrs. Joseph Holleran and
Mrs. ]. Basil Mcguire. The other
third went to Helen Winthrope
Weyant, sister of Rex Weyant, as
sistant travelling secretary of the
club. Edward G.. Barrow remain
ed in active charge of the team
and now is club president. It was
said there would be no change in
personnel under the new
ownership.
Last March, Byron Clark, attor-
.ey for the three women owners,
announced that the entire baseball
property could be purchased for
Sc, 600, 900. 1t was then that the re-
port first cropped up that a syn
headed by Farley and
James Cox, former governor of
Ohio and democratic presidential
nominee in 1920, had been formed
to buy the Yanks.
The Yankees, who routed the
Reds last fall to capture
their fourth consecutive world Sc
ries, were heavy favorites to walk
away with another A m e r i C a n
pennant this season. They
surprised everyone, however, by
faltering badly and today's stand
showed them in fourth place
behind the league leading Cleve-
land Indians, Detroit and Boston
