DETROIT, June 2.--Johnny
McHale, Detroit farm system di-
rector believes the Senators may
have plucked a prize in Jerry
Schoonmaker. University of Mis-
souri, outfielder who will report
in Kansas City as their second
bonus player. "Our scouting
reports On Schoonmaker were
exceptionally good" McHale
said. "and we would have liked
to sign him"
Schoonmaker will be in the
comparative position of starting
spring training when he joins
the team because of final
exams Jerry will have had no
batting practice for eight days
whe nhe reports. It's unlikely
Manager Chuck Dresser will en-
ploy him before the Senators
return to Griffith Stadium.

Seek Berfhs in
National Open

NEW YORK, June 2 (R.-A
near-record number of entrants
in the 1855 National Open golf
championship will have a 1-in-10
chance of qualifying for the
main event June 1913 in San
Francisco.
A total of 1929 entries was
accepted for the 55th Open
chamionship and all but II will
have to win their places in
the sectional qualifying rounds,
starting today in Los Angeles
and winding up next TUESDAY in
San Francisco. The entry is the
fourth largest in history. The
record of 1923 was set last year.
The United States Golf As
sociation released the entries
and qualifying places for each
of the 25 districts in sectional
rounds to be played. The two
California cities. with the largest
totals, will have two days of
Quailfying-today and tomorrow
in Los Angeles and June 6-7 in
San Francisco. All other qualify
ing rounds will be played June 6.
Under the new system of ex-
emptions adopted this year, only
II players get into the Open di-
rectly. That leaves 145 places
for the remaining 1872 con-
testantS. In recent years, with
more exempt players, only about
one in Is were able to qualify.
The exempt players are the
last five Open champions-Ed
Furgol. Ben Hogan, Julius Boros,
Cary Middlecoff and Lew Wof-
sham; last years low scorers
Gene Littler, Dick Mayer, 1946
Open Champion Lloyd Mangrum,

Since the days when Pop
Morgan brought the weekly trap
shooting scores to the sports
department, pausing now and
then to spin a tale of gold-rush
days in the Klondike, the shell
game, 12-gauge that is, seems
to have declined. Actually, it is
booming out on Riff1eford road
near Germantown, Nd, where
a couple of hundred triggermen
will bang away at the clay
pigeons over the week end in
the 10th annual North South
championships. It's just been a
well-kept secret.
The North South is one of the
''big -four" shoots, ranking with
the Great Eastern at Reming-
ton, Conn; the Great Western
at Chicago, and the national
championships, scheduled for
Detroit this year. The winner
here belongs in fast company.
This game is a lot like golf, !"
Tom Donahue, tourname n t
chairman, told us. Lots of prima
donnas in it, too, with different
styles of shooting and varying
temperaments. It's expensive,
but you'd be surprised at the
people in it--printers. lawyers,
statesmen, financiers-almost any
business you can think Of. Not
all can shoot as much as they
would like, but they keep their
hand in. I think statistics show
that one in every five men owns
a shotgun and hunts or shoots
traps and skeet."
Funny thing about skeet,
which is the Norwegian word for
shoot, Is that the pros can't
accept money but amateurs can.
You need a steady hand and
coordination, but vision does
not necessarily have to be per-
feet because of the buckshot's
scatter pattern.
;.' '"It's a game for young and
old" joined in Ralph Luttrell.
"We'll have some teen-agers,
like 14-year-old Billy Kirk, in
the North-South, as well as vet
Grams like 75-year-old Frank
Huseman. who can still hit those
birds"
'I remember one old gentle
man with cataracts on both eyes
whose timing was still good
enough to make a good score"
Donahue added. "Just as in
golf, once you get the swing
down it stays with you a long
time"
There are different styles of
shooting, we were told. Some
men lead the target, others
come up from behind, and still
others are spot" shots who
whip the gun into position and
bang away.
George Deyoe, one Of the best
shots in the country, was a Navy
lieutenant commander during
the war and taught Navy aerial
gunners how to handle a shot
gun to improve their accuracy
in combat" Donahue said. "The
