 New York, July 2-(UP)-1t hardly seems possible, but Prof. James Joy Johnston, ST., the bab bling brook of upper Broadway, dis covered brand new outlet for his wrath today. Opening his 21 jewel, precision movement jaws to 60 de- gree angle, the professor delivered a long and impassioned attack against the innocent pastine of golf.
 It seems golf is costing him a third of $4,651.16 a day-every day.
 The sum is startling. It is par ticularly startling coming from Prof. Johnston, whose working knowledge of golf is so limited that he is mystified because hooks are held in such disrepute. But know golf or not, the professor still can hate it. And since his capacity for hate isn't limited, he is hating $4,- 65l.16 worth daily.
 That is how much golf is cost ing my Bob Pastor and me every day" he screamed while bystanders ducked, believing an air raid had dII4Vcu. nave dll Cllc AAS u1Co iA6All here on my desk. You check them over and you'll find I'm right. My boy Bobby Pastor has spent $200 COG for golf in 43 days; yes, sir $200,0O on golf in 43 days"
 Calming the professor with q couple stiff jiggers of 20-year- old ether and telling the men with the straight jacket that their serv- ices weren't needed, I did look at the figures. They were correct to the penny. However, the foundation on which they had been built was shaker than a collapsible canoe in a typhoon. Pastor actually hadn't spent $200,000 at all
 Good Argument
 He had turned down $200,000 worth of fights in the last 43 days and continued to play golf. Although his reasoning it bit cloudy, his argument is clear enough! He claims that he is the logical contender for the world heavyweight title and that he will fight nobody until he can sign for a third bout with Corp. Joe Louis Barrow of the cavalry.
 Here I am, the greatest manager

in boxing and probably the greatest one in boxing history" the profess sor shouted, lowering his voice again when began brandishing the ether bottle. T work myself to the mar row, I use all my influence and employ all my brains to get fights. get fights, and does Pastor want them? He does not want them.
 Pastor will fight only Louis. He says he will stay right up at his farm in Sarasota Springs and play golf every day until we learn fight again, when he will fight and who he will fight. So for the past 43 days he has just said no and played golf. And I've turned down $200,000 worth of gilt-edged busi- ness"
 This display of sheer modesty over, Johnston showed me some of his offers-even pleas-for Pastors services. Pittsburgh will pay him $25, ,0o0 to fight Harry Bobo. Cleve- land will pay him as much for the same bout. Toledo, Los Angeles and San Francisco each guarantees $10,- 900 and offers Lee Savold, Turkey Thompson and Pat Valentino. Every city offers something.
 But old Bob just keeps trying for birdies and waiting for MT. Joe.
 "He is one-man bottleneck," the professor said indignantly. "He is taking bread out of his children's mouths-and out of mine, too, incl dentally. He is the most popular fighter at liberty. Even a great man. ager like myself can't do anything if fighter won't fight. Maybe I should start promoting golf tourna- ments, if that's what he wants"
 Stubborn
 Pastor'h proven as stubborn as an encyclopedia salesman. He won't come to New York. He plays with his children and shoots golf. The golf has two-fold purpose. It af- lords Pastor relaxation and 1t keeps him in condition. He has said dozen time he will whip Louis be- cause his legs are strong. And he attributes these legs to golf.
 That's gratitude for you," John- ston said. T make him wealthy enough that he can pick his spots. That's honesty, too. Why if the other managers hear about this they'll all say, See, sucker. that's what you get for being honest.' Here I go giving. him a good count in- stead of paying him off in the dark and what do I get. Golf"
 At this point the telephone rang so I walked into the outer office while the professor talked. His con- versation began amiably enough but soon it began swelling in volume until 1t sounded like this: (Crescen- dol $-YCTY$ (another crescendo) 47$$$!!" It seemed Pastor was on the phine. He had called to say he has shot a 73.

ORPHAN MAKES TT 3-WAY RACE FOR 3-YEAR-OLD TITLE
Colts Tokinq Turns Winninq Doesn't Neon They're Poor
By HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Sports Editor

New York, July 2-Valdina Or- phan made his early foot last in the Dwyer Handicap to make it a three-way race for the 3-year-old championship.
 They're right back where they started in the Kentucky Derby, when they finished in this order: Shut Out, Alsab and Valdina Orphan.
 The title may not be decided until the mile-and-a-quarter Ira vers, the midsummer Derby, is con- tested at Saratoga in August, when the three will meet at scale weight, provided all are sound.
 The next important number at equal tonnage is the Arlington Cas- sic in Chicago next month.
 Alsab is already on the ground af- ter having been fired for a blind splint, which forced upon Al Cab- ath's bargain basement bay the rest so many claimed he needed.
 Valdina Orphan won the Derby Trial and Dwyer.
 Shut Out captured the Blue Grass Stakes, Derby and Belmont Stakes.
 Alsab bagged the Preakness and WitherS Mile.

TIME SHOWS CURRENT BIG THREE RAMBLE

But these colts trimming each other does not mean they are a mediocre lot
 Valdina Orphan, coming. off three straight victories in New England, ran the mile-and-a-quarter Dwyer in POI 2-5, cutting ne-and-three- fifth seconds on the Aqueduct track record established by William Wood- wards Isolator two years ago.
 After copping the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland by running Col. E. R. Bradley's Bless Me into the ground, Shut Out won the Derby the hard way. The son of Equipoise was the victim of bad racing luck in the PreakneSs but bounced back to whip Alsab in the mile-and-a- half Belmont Stakes in 2:29 1-5.
 You have to go back to War Ad- miral's 2:28 3-5 to top Shut Outs performance in the Belmont, and the Admiral equaled the time of his illustrious sire, Man O War. Blue Larkspur took the Belmont in 2:32 4-5; Gallant Fox in 2:31 3-5; Twen- ty Grand, Johnstown and Bimelech in 2:29 3-5, and Whirlaway in 2:31.
 The track record-2:28 2-5-waS established by the ill-fated Sorteado, but he lugged no more than 1l2 pounds. Shut Out and the others packed 126.
 Alsab ran the fastest Preakness in history and turned in remark able Withers Mile.
 Shut Out spotted Valdina Orphan 10 pounds, but did get 10-pound- licking.
