LOW MEDALIST HONOR
TAKEN BY FIVE WITH
SCORE OF 82'S; DIN
NER MATCHES
(By DUFFERl

First prize of SO in the weekly
Blind Bogie golf tournament held
at the local course over the week
end was won by Bobbie Kimber.
Pop" Londeree took second prize
money of SIS and third prize of So
went to Loucks.
Five Medalists
Low medalist honors were won
by Loucks, DR.. Jack Hayes, Har-
ry Knight, Norman Artman, Cur
ry Harris, with scores of 80. Run
ner-up with 83's were Jimmy
Mira and Charles Yates.
In the monthly dinner match
es played so far. Joe Lopez and
Fred Mathews teamed togeth-
er to score a 81 victory over
Harry Knight and Tony De-
merritt: Charles Salas and Hart
ley Albury pulled a surprise
by taking the favored team of
DR.. VIM. Kemp and Fielden
Elbertson by I'll score. and
Ward Tyson and Bascom
Grooms took all three points
from James Cooper and Pop"
Lounderee.
The hosts at the monthly din
ners will be the individual losers
and not by team.
First Birdie On No. S
Robert Dopp scored a birdie on
Number Five for the first time
in his life. Dopp was two about
100 yards from the green, and
the city's public service director
laced No. 5 iron about IL feet
from the pin. Dopp stepped up
and stroked the putter and there
it was-a birdie for the red
head.
Dopp is satisfied with the birdie
but is now looking forward to
scoring an eagle. He has gotten
all the "buzzards" Zone over

on that tough dog-leg.
Country Club Building
1t is too ba dthat some organi-
zation doesn't take over the Key
West Country Club building. The
imposing structure is slowly sue
cumbing to the elements and
time. Efforts to revive the cor
poration failed, as did plans to
consolidate it with the Key West
Golf Club. Biggest booster for
the Country Club revival is Bob
Spottswood. Bob would combine
the Golf Club and the Country
Club as one organization.
Total estimated cost to put the
building back in condition to op-
crate would be $4,000. Spots.
wood would raise this amount by
asking 500 stock subscriptions
from 100 individuals. The club
would then be operated as a priv
ate venture by the stockholders
Good Scorers
The perfect scoring machine
among the pros is said to be
Thomson with the woods, Armour
with the irons, and Horton Smith
putting. Now in Key West, il
would probably be drives by
Mira, approaches by knight anc
puts by Spottswood. A close
second team would be Andy
Park driving, DR.. Hayes approach
ing and Charles Yates putting.
Perfect Spot On Course
What's the prettiest spot on the
course?
Duffer says it is from the greer
on Number 8, which is elevated
and gives one an unobStructec
view of the ocean, and the COO
breezes that always accompany
its proximity.
Scores l04
Pinky Osborne got a 104 this
week. Compare it with his last
weeks low score. There's a rea-
son, but in Pinky's case there are
two reasons.
Individual scores are as fol,
! lows:

StorrS, Conn.,, Oct. 8-(UP)-A flareup of prima donna tempera- ment, according to campus reports today, was the real reason behind the dismissal of Walt Trojanowski- last years leading scorer in the coun- try-from the University of Cennec- ticut football squad.
 Coach J. O. Christian announced curtly that the 190-pound fullback was being dropped from the squad because he failed to report for prac- tice last Friday and also that he neglected to appear in uniform for Saturdays game against Springfield College.
 Trejanowski blamed his absence on a bad ankle, recurrance of a base ball injury he sustained last May while sliding into third base.
 Moll Better?
 He rolndly denied that the fact that Christian put big Bill Mell in at fullback last Saturday had anything to do with the matter.
 Bill Moll is just as good a player as I am, and even better" he said T tell you it was my ankle that kept me out of practice"
 However, he did admit that he played tennis ore day last week but insisted that the game was good for my ankle"
 AS matter of fact he played ten his yesterday afternoon, shortly be- fore Christian told him that he was through with the squad.
 The husky Bridgeporter who rolled up 132 points last year, was a start CT against Harvard two weeks ago. He had been on the practice field last week until the announcement came that Moll was going to start against Springfield at fullback. What he didn't know at the time, however, was that Christian planned to start him at left half.
 Mell was considered the equal of Trejanewski in the safety spot and it was more or less an experiment on his part to switch the two playing positions. In the Harvard game Fro Janowsk1 carried the ball seven times
 Jo4 oo' " 4O"C1 pClCc1lCdSG O1 gam that he made last season when the huskies won seven and lost only one game.
 Quit
 It was learned today that after TroJanowski's decision not to go into practice Saturday he turned in his uniform and that arguments of the coaching staff and close friends left him unshaken in his determination not to remain with the squad. How ever, Christian kept him on the ros- ter until yesterday afternoon when he again tried to persuade him to get back into play. A flat refusal brought Christians prompt dismiss al.

Aboard World Series Special En- route to Boston, Oct. 8-(UP)- Everybody figures today that The Kid is about ready to explode.
 The Kid, of course, is Ted Will Hams, strangely silent siege gun of the Boston Red Sox ball busters.
 At the moment, the slim guy with the quick, nervous gestures is in an unusually anemic state. In seven official times at bat in the two games of this World Series he has elubbed but one weak single for a sickly batting average of .143. This doesn't include two other trips to the plate in which he diSgustedly drew walks.
 Use "BOudreau Shift"
 So as they head homeward for the third game of the classic, the Red Sox were waiting hopefully for The Kid to erupt. And the rival St.. Louis Cardinals were standing by with all the aplomb of first timer in the maternity ward waiting room. Similarly, they know all this waiting can only go on so long.
 With The Kid on deck the Cards have been playing them mighty close to their vest. For the first time in World Series history they pulled practically all of their team over to the right side-where Will Hams always hits-to plug all pos sible base hit loopholes.
 Tt wasn't their own idea but something they were quick to snap up from the harried American league. Lou Boudreau, manager of the Cleveland Indians, devised 1t first during regular season play and it proved about as effective as any

AIphos Hi-Y Touch Winner

In the official opening of the Hi- Y Touch Football League at the Central Y. M. 0. A. last night, the Alpha lily remped over the Co., mites to the score of 32-6.
 Barene led his teammates to the victory by scoring 12-peints with Corden, Curran and Hansen also tallying 6 points each to boost up the score while Ward was credited with a safety for his teammates.
 Sehuster of the Caalites scored the only touchdown for the losers and this was by pass from Fec teau.
 In tenight's game starting at 6:3o, Beta and Aristan collide for the initial offering between these two teams. The big game scheduled for the week will be when Kafra and Lancers clash on Wednesday night at 6:30.

Pro Football 

Philadelphia, Oct. 8-(UP)-Pro- fessional football has never been more in agreement with colleges than it is today, according to Bert Bell, commissioner of the National Football League.
 Bell told a luncheon meeting of the Maxwell Football club here yes- terday that professional football cannot exist without college foot ball, nor do We care to-"
 Tt is our policy to consider the interest of individual players first and we have had not one disagree ment with college authorities" he said. There are several players who, according to our rules, would be eligible to play pro football, but who are still in college because we and all concerned thought it best that they finish their courses.
 "A college graduate is of more use to himself and to us than one who fails to get his degree" he added. Of course there are excep- tions where boy has to earn some fast money. In these cases there have been no complaints from any quarter"

Tolun Plot " Won

A touchdown in the opening min- utes of the first period gave the Town Plot Hillies to 0, triumph over the Sacred Heart Grid com bine at Washington Park last Sum- day afternoon. This was the first game of the season for the Hillies.
 The Town Plot array recovered a blocked punt on the Hearts 15 yard line and in the next four plays went over for the clinehing score. Capt. Angelo Paelino sliced off right tackle for the touchdowns. De Lu- eia's placement kick was good for the extra point. The summary: Town ................7 0 0 or

thing can be against Williams drive.
 When Ted tees off on a ball it isn't like an ordinary grounder III which the mfielders have chance to take with a few steps. He wal lops and if you aren't directly in front of 1t the ball rockets through into the outfield for a base knock. There really is that much power in his drives.
 Drives Halted Twice
 So Cleveland came up with the "Boudreau shift" in which only the right side of the infield is protected. Manager Eddie Dyer of the Card1- nals uses a modified Boudreau shift" in which he leaves Shortstop Marty Marion in position but pulls Whitey Kurowski from third base to the normal second base position. He thus provides additional sup port in the slot between first and second. Confusing, yes, but ettec- tive.
 Because sizzling liners which ordinarily would have gone through for base hits have been halted twice on The Kid.
 It's a great tribute to the hitting ability of the Boston plaster. But it also is a deserved one for just watching Williams go up to the plate waving his big bat you can feel the latent power.
 During the first two games of the Series at St. Louis he got but that one single. Yet lackada1slcal Cardinal crowd sat up watchfully whenever The Kid stopped at the bat rack. Every vicious swing pro duced sigh which echoed throughout the stands and when they got him out the fans sent up greater roar than the landlord when you're two weeks overdue.
 There's no doubt that The Kid has that indefinable something known as crowd appeal. And neither is there any question but what there are a lot of base hits in his bat-including high flying ones which even the "Boudreau Shift" won't be able to stop.
 Everybody is simply waiting for the law of averages to catch up, and the all-around hunch is that it won't be too long.

Hotel Rooms Harder to Get Than Tickets
By JOSEPH NOLAN limited Press Sports Writer

Boston, Oct. g. UP)-Hotel rooms were scarcer than World Series tickets today as the home of the bean and the cod got ready for its first diamond classic in 28 years.
 Baseball fans trying to reserve rooms didn't even get beyond the hotel phone operators. The same girls who were asking little more than a year ago if you didn't know there was 8 war on, had a new stopper:
 Don't you know there's World Series on?"
 Jack Brown, assistant manager of the Copley Plaza, spoke for all the city's hotel men when he said:
 "It's one of the worst times in Boston's history for hotel rooms"
 Some hotels planned to convert dining rooms and bathrooms into dormitories to accommodate the overflow.
 Among the lucky ones who had reservations were film star Rlta Hayworth, crooner Tony Martin, and actors Pat O'Brien, George Raft, Victor Mature and Brian Donlevy. Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis hoped they were saving a room for him, and so did base ball stars Hank Greenberg and Joe DiMaggio, and author Clarence Burlington Kelland.
 r Expensive
 The ticket situation was a little brighter.
 Scalpers had plenty of them for $75 to $100 a pair, and there were scores of eager customers.
 Besides, $500 rush seats will go on sale the day of each game. Fans were expected to set up light housekeeping outside Fenway Park today and police looked for full hedged "squatters' village to spring up before the ticket windows open tomorrow at A. M.
 The Boston 6 Albany railroad re- ported that the Red Sox would ar rive home about P. M. The Car dinals, who left St. Louis an hour ahead of the Sox, are expected to arrive in Boston first. Also enroute are two special trains bringing fans from St. Louis, and the Joe Cronin Special from San Francisco, home town of the Boston manager.
 But hotels, tickets and transpor- tation offered no problem for one New England fan.
 Lucky Break
 David Wiggin, 1,6 of Bedford, N. H., was disappointed like thousands of others when the Red Sox man. agement returned his money order for World Series tickets Thinking the money order should have been endorsed by the Red Sox before be- ing cashed, he sent it back. By return mail he got an envel- ope containing two tickets to to- morrow's game. He's so happy, he's going to hitch-hike the 50 miles to Boston.

But figures give you the best slant on where the balance of power lies.
 American Leaguers manufactured 82 more home runs than National Leaguers during the campaign, the full count being 631 as against 549. This despite the fact that the junior loopers tackled the more formidable pitching in more spacious arenas. Outside of the right field wall at CleVeland's antiquated League Park, for example, there is nowhere that home runs are as cheap as those made possible by the short foul lines of the Polo Grounds.
 American League had Is players who swatted that many home runs or more, the National only six.
 Freshman Ralph Kiner of the Pirates won the National League home run championship with 23, which was exceeded by Joe Di- Maggio's 25, Pat Seery's 26, King

Burke's 70 Wins AtWotertoWn

Watertown, Oct. 8-Connecticut's P.G.A. champion, stocky, Eddie Burke, club professional at Race Race Brook, needed 32, sub-par by 5 strokes to win the first annual WatertoWn Open by single stroke here today. His card of 38-32-even TO was just enough to pace the field, as big Frank StaszowsN of Torring- ton Country Club had a 36-35-71 which was matched by amateur Har- old s. Beebee of Watertown, and a standout player at Country club of Waterbury; who exactly duplicated StaszoWski's score.
 Mike Kloc, the little guy from Naugatuck and tall Harry Neddle- bladt, Avon professional had identic- al 72 scores. Tommy Armour, of Rockledge, winner of the Manohest- CT Open Sunday, played the out nine in one over par, but picked up on two holes coming in. Other scores included: Pete Burke, Naugatuck 75; Al Labutis. Chase 79, Frank Paul, American Brass, 76; Dom Soccoli, New Britain, 82; M. s. Malouf, Chase 88.

"Big Money" Kills CoLLeQe Football

Hartford, Conn, Oct. 8-(UP)- Big money is eating the heart out of good honest college athletics" " head football Coach, J. O. Christian of the University of Connecticut de- clared last night.
 Christian claimed that schools which never did it before are com mercializing sports" adding that it will hinder the academic program" and fail ito build character"
 T hope Connecticut never goes in for that sort of thing. I don't want any boys to transfer from other schools just to play football at Connecticut. hope we can play the best schools in the country with the same type of boys we have now"

Pep "Pinched"

Hartford, Conn, Oct. 8-(UP)- Featherweight champion Willie Pep wasn't sure about getting a judge decision today in this one.
 Pep ran afoul of the law last night, first for driving the wrong way on a one-way street and soon afterwards for allegedly throwing one of his lethal punches at Salva- tore Ierna during a street coroner argument. Also involved in this af- fair was Mrs. Ierna who claimed that her husband knocked her down and tore her coat.
 Both Pep and Ierna were charg- ed with assault and battery.
