All-American Open golf tournament
today, but chances a-e the cloud
burst that washed out the semi
final round of the 72-hole classic
only delayed another triumph for
C." -nding champion, Byron Nelson.
Instead of staging his stretch
drive tomorrow, as originally
scheduled, Nelson must wait until
Monday before he moves in for
the kill.
Nelson, the 36-hole leader with
a brilliant 1874, just completed a
three-under- when a doWnpo1r
prompted meet officials to cancel
the entire days proceedings in the

ter course.
Fred Corcoran, P.G.A. tourna-
ment chairman, reported the
greens were soaked and putting

player splashed through the rain
on the final six holes of his spark
ing opening nine.

take of more than $4,000 for the
year, still is four strokes ahead OF

gers eleventh win of the year
against six losses, and Carried S
fourth loss.
Carter put the first two runs
on base when, after Stan Hack

plate. Dewey Williams scored an

BATTING DECLINE
HITS SENS CASE

CHICAGO. July 2s.-(P)-George
Washington Case, the base-steallng
and heavy-hitting outfielder OF the
Washington Senators, missed a
chance to take over the batting
lead of the American League the
past week.
Case Joined Tony Cucinello Of the
Chicago White Sox, the league lead
err. in a minor batting slump, and
the result was that both lost per-
centage points, but the veteran Chi
cago White Sox third-sacker still
is on top Of the league.
Official figures released today,
which include games of Thursday,
have Tony "the Cooch' leading
the hit parade with 1926, and Case
in second with .315. Behind them
were Roberto Estallella of Phila'
delphia, and Eddie Lake OF Boston,
tied for third with averages OF
.312.
Just to prove the American lea
que is more of a pitching than hit
ting circuit this seaton, the next
best mark was another tie, with
George Stirnweiss of New York
and Vern Stephens of St. Louis
tied for fifth with .309 each.
Stirnweiss, however, holds the
lead in four other departments
runs scored, with So; base hits,
with 105; total bases, with 1853,
and .-1ples, with II. Stephens was
his closest competitor in runs scor-
ed with So, and Case was close
behind him in hits, with 1902. Bob
Johnson. with 152 total bases, and
Wally Moses of Chicago with ten
triples, were his closest followers
in those departments.
Case still headed the league in
stolen bases with 20, but Johnsc7
had a new rival in runs batted in
when Nick Etten of New York NOV
ed into tie in that category with
the Boston outfielder. Each has
81.
George Binks of Washington hit
four doubles the past week to take
over that lead with 81.
The pitching lead still is I'm
touched, insofar as Boston's Dave
Ferriss is concerned. He won an
other game in the past week to
boost his average to II wins and
two losses, while Al Benton re-
