.Cruickshank Menace
To Golf Pros Here in
Washington Open
Vireinion Files Entry
For Meet Next Month;
Burnett Gets Title
By WALTER McCALLUM.

Robert Allan Cruickshank, the
eminent Scotsman who twice has
been runnerup for the National
Open golf championship, is going
to plsy in the Washington Open title
tourney at Indian Spring Septem-
ber 4. Edinburgh-born Bobby, who
tied Bobby Jones for the National
Open title 18 years ago at 1nwood,
entered the tourney today, wiring
Witty Cox his entry. Cruickshank
is tournament chairman for Vir-
ginia of the Middle Atlantic Pro-
fessional Golfers Association, and
with him he'll probably bring sew
eral of the better players from the
Old Dominion. II Cruicky brings
along Chandler Harper. the boys
had better start sharpening up their
warclubs, for Harper just now Is
the hottest golfer In this sector.
Cruickshank himself has had lit
tie luck around Washington, outside
of the defunct National Capital
Open tourney. He won the last one
of these affairs, staged at Kenwood
early in the last decade, but subse-
uuent excursions to Washington
have been more or less fruitless for
the Scottish veteran. Cruicky failed
to qualify for the open champion
ship this year at Columbia. But he
didn't have his heart in it then. If
he has his heart set on good show
ing at Indian Spring September 4
he'll be a tough man to lick. 1t will
be different from the Columbia af-
fair. Cruicky told me then he didn't
care about the long trip to Fort
Worth for the open.
Burnett Indian Spring Champ.
Volney Burnett, the golfng fire
laddie. goes about the business OF
collecting links championships with
hardly more than a routine gesture.
Earlier in the season Volney took
time off from his regular chore OF
putting out fires to gather in the
Maryland State amateur title. Yes
terday he added the Indian Spring
crown to his list, without exerting
himself too much.
He licked Jock Olmstead and ]
in a 36-hole final, but it was Bur-
nett all the way. Volney shot u
to lead by 2 holes at lunch time,
and played the third nine In 80 to
90 4 up. H coasted to his 2-and-l
final margin. The second-flight fina
was reached, with John De Fint
and Harold Gordon to meet during
the week. Other flights were wor
as follows: Third-F. j. O'Connel
defeated Charles Wells, and q
fourth-Marty Gordon defeated 8
B. Maize, 6 and 5.
Mr.. and Mrs. Giles Victors.
Mr.. and Mrs. Karl S. Giles won
| the gross award in a mixed foursome
| tourney at Indian Spring with 9
card of 90. The family combinations
Of the j. B. Robertsons and the
Jerry Enrights did all right in the
net tourney, winning four prizes be-
| tween them. Mrs. j. B. Robertson
and Jerry Enright, and Mrs. Enrigh'
and j. B. Robertson tied at net II

Boxing Fever zooms
With Co|orfuI Card
Two DaysAway
ViIIor Impresses Fons;
SovoId, Morez Here
With Comiskey Due

The towns fight fever mounted
from tepid to warm today as the
colorful collection Of ringmen on
Wednesday nights program at
Grifith Stadium moved into the
final stages of training.
Pat Comiskey, the Joisey gent
trying q comeback, was due this
afternoon at Turner's Arena where
the beef trust Is rehearsing for the
show.
Comiskey has a date with Claudio
Villar, non-speaking- English gladia-
tor from Spain (via Cuba and will
have both hands full, judging by
Claudio's clouting yesterday. Villar
took all the Joy out of his helpless
sparmate's life during spirited
session, heaving more leather than
you'll find in a shoemakers shop.
The same hombre so highly touted
by DR.. Harold Raskin, eminent
trainer and prognosticator, Villar
seems to be okay for a preliminary
boy and should make it interesting
for Patrick.
Savold and Morez Here.
Also in town are Lee Savold, down
for duel with Buddy Scott; and
Ben Morez, from south Of the border
who boxes Jabbo Kenner. They
stomped and snorted through the
Sabbath calm with fine disdain for
one another, visibly impressing the
fans
Ten thousand general admission
tickets were placed on sale today
at Turner's Arena and only q much
brisker business will save Jack
Kearns, manager of the visiting
team, from a stroke of appoplexy.
This good-time Charley Of another
era plainly is worried about the
towns apathy toward the spectacle
and has not hesitated to mention
this to Promoter Joe Turner. Nor
is Turner unduly optimistic after
witnessing the slim training turn
outs.
But their fears may be ground
less. Only one show, the Bear
Louis title fight. of all those staged
here recently shaped up as better
entertainment. That one, it can be
pointed out. outdid many other
title bouts for sheer suspense and
excitement.
It's = Promising Card.
This show has more promise than
either the Billy Conn-Danny Has
sett or Bear-Galento scraps. The
main bout should be far, better than
those sour spectacles and the sup
porting card is far superior in talent
and color.
Evidently disliking rumors of q
projected dive" on his part, Blunt
Is more confident than ever of TAX
ing q decision over Poland and Is in
good shape for the marathon route
The big colored fighter has con-
cluded the heaviest phase of train
ing and will spar no more. ,confinine
his activities to the bag and calls
themes.
Poland satisfied with the keennes,
of his left, was to tie on the mittens
for the last time this afternoon
stressing his potent right during
the workout. Bill has been pulling
his punches with Buddy Scott ir
training but has shown enough tc
warrent his installation as the
favorite. L. F. A.

 A British patrol was repulsed on the Sudan frontier in East Africa, with losses, it was asserted.

 Giovanni Ansaldo, leading Fas- cist editor, prepared the public in a national wireless speech yesterday for the fall of Bardia. He said that the fall would be a noteworthy suc- cess for the British and painful news for Italians, because Bardia was important to the defense of Libya. However he said, the stub born defense of Bardia had im- mobilized the British for 20 days and given time for Italy's Libyan forces to reorganize.
 "The Bardia battle warns all Italians. rich or poor. powerful or unknown, Fascist leaders or not" he said. Tt is a warning to the Ital- ian people to be serious and to ur- derStand what Is at stake and be worthy in the historic hour of Italy's destiny. There is no other way to salvation for the individual than to back up our army complete ly as the nation has done at Bar dia,"

said to be approaching the Tobruk area.
 The British immediately com- mandeered huge stores of Italian material and expected to use it 1n the assault upon Tobruk. The ma terial included tanks, guns and equipment of all types.
 with the fall of Bardia British bombers immediately set out for heavy assaults on Tobruk. A com munique said they had dropped many tons of bombs on Tobruk military buildings, airdromes, naval barracks and the towns defenses in continuous raids Saturday night, through Sunday and last night. One very large fire was visible in Bardia.
 "Subsequent aircraft dropped their bombs into the center of this fire" the communique continued, considerably increasing its area.
 "In Italian East Africa, 8 raid was carried out on the naval base at Massawa, many bombs filing in the target area.
 with increased enemy air activ- ity over Eastern Libya Sunday, RAF fighters engaged in several combats with the result that Il enemy planes, including seven OR 42's and four SS 79's were destroyed while a number of others were badly dam- aged. t.

 Much Tension Felt
 Reports of large scale German Rumania accounted for much of troop movement in Hungary and the tension here. German authori- ties were said to be making elabo- rate preparations to secure rail- way transit across Hungary to Rumania, and concentrations of German troops were reported at many places along the Rumanian- Bulgarian border. Among other places the Germans were said to be concentrated at Giurgiu, oppo- site the Bulgarian rail head at Rustchuk; at Calafat, opposite the Bulgarian rail head at Vidin; at Turnu-Magurele, opposite the Bull garian rail head at Nilopol.
 Germans also were reported con- gregated at the Runlanian port of Constanza, presumably awaiting transport down the Black Sea to the Bulgarian ports of Varna and BurgaS.
