Hagen, Sarazen Clash
In Benefit Foursome
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Aug. 5.-The last time
Sir Walter Hagen and stocky Gene
Sarazen got together in a Ryder Cup
golf match they were partners in 4
foursome victory over the British.
This time 1t Is different because they
are opponents.
Saturday in the fourth renewal
here OF golf's war orphaned world
series for the benefit OF the Red
Cross, 50-year-old Hagen will pair
with Lighthouse Harry Cooper in an
18-hole best-ball match against
Sarazen, a relative youngster Of Al,
and probably Frank Walsh.
That's as close as the two rivals
will get to a much -heralded hand
to-hand singles battle. The Haig
won't appear at all in Sundays 36-
hole match play individual tests,
but Sarazen will lend hand to
Craig Woods cup squad seeking to
make it two victories in row over
Hagen's challengers.
Hagen hasn't played in Ryder
match since the 1885 triumph with
Sarazen over the British. Sarazen
has played in them all.

PoIIi Of Jersey City
Is Ace on Slab for
last-PIace Team
BY the Associated Press.

In these days of numerous double
headers. with the consequent strain
on pitching staffs. 1t appears that
some special attention should be
given to the work of Louis America
Grip Polli.
Polli is one of the real Interna-
tional League veterans and 1t is his
misfortune this year to toll for
Jersey City. The Little Giants are
at the bottom, and they've been shut
out oftener than any other team in
the league.
But Louis America managed to
mark up his 18th victory Of the
season yesterday. as compared to
seven losses, when the Jerseys beat
the Rochester Red Wings, 4 to /.
Grip yielded only five hits and three
walks.
That's only part Of what Grip.
who started the season as a relief
finger, has been doing. He pitched
a one-hit shutout against Baltimore
July %, lost an 1l-inning 10 game
to Toronto on the 28th, picked up a
victory with a 10th-iEning relief job
on the 30th, started against Buffalo
the next day and lost, 81, and then
came back yesterday.
Good pitching was in order all
down the line yesterday as Mon
treal's Bob Chapman started with
three tossing against Newark to
take the first half of a double
header. Az. The nightcap went to
Newark 10, as Walt Dubiel and
Lloyd Dietz both came up with four
hitters
Rufe Gentry and Ed Klieman al
lowed three hits apiece as Buffalo
whipped Baltimore, 10. Klieman,
aiming at his goth victory. gave up
walk and two singles in the third
and that cost him the game.

he is hit by those big tackles we'll
meet in pro ball or how he will be on
pass defense. But he is willing, a
hard worker and in good condition.
In addition, he breaks fast. He may
make it."
Moore Star Pass Receiver.
Moore, star of the 1912 playoff
game when the Redskins shellacked
the Chicago Bears, ID to 6. in WASH
ington, thinks the 35-yard pass he
caught for the Skins first touch
down was his greatest thrill in foot
ball, even greater than the time he
caught Minnesota aerial to beat
Michigan in 1888.
He incidentally renewed acquaint-
ance yesterday with 1t. Col. Bernie
Bierman of the marines, who was
his coach at Minnesota. Bierman,
looking fit and ready to take over a
regiment. is in charge of combat
conditioning at the marines Camp
Elliott here.
Moore is one of the under-pub-
licized men on the Redskin squad.
Fast and quick on the getaway, he
is rated by Baugh as one of the best
pass receivers on the club. His
hands are big and stick like glue to
that football. 1t happens to be no
lead-pipe cinch to catch a Baugh
pass. Sammy throws EN- for keeps.
Intrasquad Tilt Backfields.
In the West team starting back
field for the squad game on
August IS will be Baugh, Ray Hare,
Moore and Bob Seymour That is
the regular starting backfield for the
Skins this year and Bergman wants
to have the boys stick together, bar
ring injuries. For the East, Jack
Jenkins. Ray Zimmerman. Frank
Atkins and Bob Masters or Seno will
start.
Most backfield men naturally run
to the right, but Moore runs best to
his left with Seno equally adept
either way.
The Skins may transfer their
training chores to Camp Elliott for
a day. They've been asked by the
marines to work out there. 1T
would be knockout for the camp
said Maj. Ray Hanson, former foot
ball coach at Macomb College.

P|oeser Urges u. 5. Study
Of Postwar PLANNING
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Representative Ploeser, Republi-
can, Of Missouri, wants the Federal
Trade Commission to study postwar
planning in cooperation with con-
gressional committees on small bust
ness.
The reason for delegating this
task to the small business commit
tees is that I firmly believe that the
small business unit is the keystone
in the arch of free competitive eco
nomic enterprise, Mr.. Ploeser told
the House yesterday. He has intro
duced a bill for the study.
The purpose" he continued, "is
not to diminish the important role
that big business plays in free COM
petitiVe business economy, but rather
to make sure Of the survival Of typi-
Cally free American small business. "
On completion of the study on
July /, 1914, he said, Congress would
be in a position to proceed, imme-
dlately upon cessation Of hostilities,
to steer our democracy clear of the
reefs of those pernicious foreign eco
nomic PHILOSOPHERS which have al
ready worked such a tragedy before
our eyes"
