LOS ANGELES, Aug. 13.-
Here's a new saga of Billy the

Only IS years old. Not yet out Of

Yet he's the first-string CATCH

A series of accidents projected
the youthful Billy into the spot

was injured, and a few days later
Billy Holm went out with split
finger. The Angels didn't have
catcher.

SEWANEE, Tenn, Aug. 13.-
Footballs oldtime giant killer, Uni
versity of the South, returned to the
grid picture today with an an
nouncement that it would resume
play in a three-game intercollegiate
schedule this fall with team COM
posed of civilian students and naval
trainees.
Little Sewanee was one of the first
Southern colleges to inaugurate
football-in 1891. And it was one
of the first to drop the game be-
cause of wartime conditions early
in 1912.
In the interim, the picturesque
college set a record that has not
been equaled. A squad of IA men
went on the road in 1899 and played
four major games in five days. 1t
trounced Texas, A. and NJ, Tulane
and Louisiana State, allowing not
one point against it-and piling up
an aggregate score of 79 points.
Chirman Stratton Buck of the
athletic board of control said the
resumed program would be built
around intramural competition early
in the season with the best players
developed there being used in the
intercollegiate games.

catching, says Holm is better
receiver and a mortal cinch to be
in the majors next year. Still,
Sarni remains the firSt-string re-
ceiver for Los Angeles, and so
long as the Angels keep on VIM
ming he'll continue to be.
Manager Bill Sweeney wants
him to stay in the harness and
gain the only thing he lacks,
experience under fire.
The boys father, Florine Sarni,
a semipro performer who never
could quite make the professional
jump, has been his constant tutor
while he performed on the Los
Angeles High School team and
sandlots. Billy is a strikingly
handsome chap with beautifully
tapering body, weighs 1876 and is
5 feet II inches tall, fair skin and
dark brown eyes. He's a Stickler
for strict training discipline.
Probably the youngest PLAYER
in AA baseball, Sarni seems to
have made the grade in less than
two weeks.

Fegan, well-known in Washington.
the Redskins had only two light
workouts due before the Shrine
game here Sunday. They will divide
into two squads for the contest.
Ten thousand servicemen will be
in the stands free of charge. Pro-
ceeds of the paid customers will be
split between the Redskins and the

Latest dope is that Sammy Baugh.
even with a bad back, may play.

George P. Marshall, but we won't
take any chance of getting him
badly hurt, as he could be II hit

A light workout this morning and
another tomorrow afternoon will
bring the squad up to the game In
fair shape, although Ends Joe
Aguirre and Bob McChesney and
Back Ted Key still aren't topnotch.

Marshall doesn't think the Red
skin share of the gate will pay train
ing and travel expenses for his club,
but says he is willing to go ahead on
the basis of big gate for future
Shrine games here
The Redskins leave San Diego
Monday morning for Los Angeles
where they'll board a train for
Chicago and the All-Star game on
August IS.
This game Is the bugaboo Of the
coaches, who have been getting
horror reports about the numerical
and qualitative strength of the ALL
Stars. But the Skins figure they'll
be we'll fortified in the backfield de-
partment If Steve Bagarus and In
dian Jack Jacobs, both in the Army,
can go to Chicago.
Marshall said that In three games
one here and two in Baltimore
the Redskins will play before around
10000 servicemen, admitted free.
No word has come from Back Andy
Farkas and the club virtually has
dismissed Andy from the team this
year, although the hope persists he
may show up for the All-Star game.

Newcomers Add Color
AS Women Golfers
Play SemifinaIs
BY the Associated Press.

EVANSTON, Ill, Aug. 13.-It's
Catherine Fox vs. Dorothy Germain
and Mary Agnes Wall VS.. Peggy
Kirk in the >semifinals of the
women's Western amateur golf
tournament today at the Evanston
Golf Club.
For Miss Fox and Miss Germain,
both newcomers this season to the
Midwest golf scene, it's a second
straight appearance in women's
Western tournament semiinal
round. Both reached that stage, in
opposite brackets, in the open meet
in June and lost.
Miss Fox, 18, Glen Ridge, N. j., and
Miss Germain, a Philadelphian OF
10, met four and five years ago in
Junior interstate team matches and
Miss German won both times.
Most Quarter Finals Close.
Miss Wall, "a. of Menominee, Mich.
was finalist in this meet two years
ago and semif1nalist last year. Her
opponent today, Miss Kirk of Find
lay, Ohio, has played in the Western
amateur only once before. She
Is 81.
Miss Germain had a fine 3-under-
par medal score for the IA holes it
took her to beat Ann Casey of
Mason City, Iowa, S and 4, yesterday
All the other quarter final efforts
required the full 18 holes. Miss
Fox defeated Marjorie Row Of De-
troit, Mich, up, and Miss Wall
won from Jeanne Cline of Blooming
ton, ILL.,, by the same margin, being
spared an overtime when Miss
Cline, putting for a win on the final
hole, saw her 7-footer roll around
the rim OF the cup and then out.
Battle for Peggy Kirk.
Miss Kirk had 2-up decision
against Betty Jean Rucker of
Spokane. Wash, but it was closer
than that. Miss Kirk was up at
the turn and after halving the next
four holes lost two in a row, leaving
only a 1-up edge.
The next two holes also were
halved, but Miss Rucker fired her
second shot on the 18th into shrub
berry bordering water hole and lost
so many strokes she had to concede
