1910 Victim Of
Today'sFoe
Seeking Second Title.
Bud Never Behind in
ia Tourney Holes
BY EARL HILLIGAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

OMAHA, Aug. 30.-A steel-nerved
star who's been in before and an
unemployed former movie extra
both up from the ranks of public
links competition-knocked on the
door Of amateur golf's hall Of fame
today.
Seeking the 45th national amateur
championship in 36-hole battle
over the rugged Field Club layout,
are Marvin CBud) Ward of Spokane,
Wash, winner in 1899, and Slim
Pat Abbott of Los Angeles, whose
best previous bid for the crown was
his loss to Willie Turnesa in the
1888 final
Their duel shaped up as a perfect
climax to a week of sensational golf
For Ward, who yesterday moved
ahead with rousing and 8 tri-
umph over Bob Riegel Of Houston,
Tex, was the long hitting "slugger"
type of competitor as contrasted to
the shorter but straighter shooting
little California Irishman, who
moved into this final with a 1-up
victory over Ted Bishop Of Boston.
Rigel Is Helpless.
Ward, a public links tourney per-
former back In 1889 and in recent
years the acknowledged top simon
pure OF the country, never gave Rie-
gel chance. He won the first four
holes with par golf and from that
point on it was just matter of time.
The Texas entry didn't have the dis
tance off the tee nor the cool expert
ence of Ward, who did his share Of
scrambling and yet always had the
clutch" shots to pull him out of
trouble.
The match ended as Ward took the
9th and 28th with pars to go 8 up.
Abbott, playing deliberate game
and allowing no tight spots to ruffie
his swing, held a 2-hole edge over
Bishop through 80 holes. He g.
putted the 33d, however, and the
fastener appeared to have q
chance. But Abbott refused to
crack, matching his opponent shot
for shot to the 36th, where q half
gave him his triumph.
Both finalists are % years old and
both have excellent records behind
them.
Beat Abbott Last Year.
Ward, in his first National ANA
teur in 1887. went to the semifinals
and in last years Amateur met
Abbott for the first and only time,
scoring 8 and third-round vic
tory. Abbott, who has done some
radio acting and hopes for a victory
which may give me a break in
radio or pictures" won the public
links title in 1886 and has been play
ing for II years. For 140 holes he's
played this week he has been q
over the Field Club par. with Ward
but II shots over regulation figures
for 124 holes.
Ward, who has not been down to
any Of his five victims, marched to
this second title shot with the fol-
lowing victories: Alex Welsh, Rock
ford, Ill, and s; Otto Greiner,
Baltimore, 2 and /; Glenn Oatman
Kansas City, 3 and 1; Steve Kovach
Pittsburgh, S and 4, and Riegel.
Abbott's record shows a Cup win
over John Vavra, Cedar Rapids,
Iowa; 3 and 2 over Wilford Wehrle
Chicago; up over Harry Todd OF
Dallas; 3 and 2 over Ray Billows of
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, and his tri-
umph over Bishop.
On the record. Abbott's game Is
ready for the stout-hearted Spo-
kane star, for Todd and Billows
were pre-tourney choices second
only TO Ward, and Wehrle was q
1910 semifinalist.

For Medwick
Vet OutfieIder Big

Auker Nips Chisox
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

Sufficient having been written for
the time being about Howard Pollet,
the Cardinals sensational new
pitcher, and it being a matter Of
common consent that Howard Is tag
ged for baseball greatness, this
writer hastens to put in few words
for Joe Medwick, an elderly sort OF
outfielder for the Brooklyns.
Joe cost the Dodgers something
more than 100000 last season, was
beaned soon thereafter. and at the
end of the campaign was being re-
ferred to as Larry MacPhails folly"
His great comeback this season
stamps Joe as one Of the games
supreme gameSters.
He is the solid man" of the
Dodgers these days. He is crowding
the league leaders with a batting
average of .316, has hit II homers,
and has slugged IA runs across the
plate, including the two that proved
the eventual undoing of the Giants
yesterday.
Spectacular Catch Great Help.
Some observers think Joe is field
ing better than in his PALMER days
with the Cards. At least. he gives
the impression he is hustling hard
er. In yesterdays encounter, with
the Dodgers clinging worriedly to a
5-4 lead in the ninth, Dick Bartell of
the Giants whammed one far into
left field that looked the business,
but Medwick made running, leap
ing stab of the PELLET and wrapped
up victory for Pitcher Whit Wyatt.
1t was an important win for the
Dodgers. as it fattened their lead
over the idle Cards to game and a
half. Manager Leo Durocher's tired
athletes realize that they need to
take full advantage of the weak
Eastern opposition before starting
on their door die tour of the Wild
West.
They won yesterdays game the
only one played in the National
League) by jumping on Hal Schu-
macher for six hits and five runs In
the fifth inning. Wyatt wasn't at
his best, yielding 10 hits, hut with a
lead like that he was a cinch to get
his 18th victory.

Persons no more than middle aged can recall the time when motor cars Wene so scarce that the auto race was one of the fea- lures of the county fair. The two or three leading citizens of the region who owned horse-less car riagas tore around the dirt track at twenty miles an hour, giving the spectators a real thrill. Not ing that the present car regis traticn is in the neighborhood of thirty million, enactmentS that touch the auto come home to eV- cry mans door. I'm order of the OPM to cut car production tWen- ty percent came as a shock.
