TH. E BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, JULY 14, 1931 ‘Philadelphia Splits With Washington to Maintain Six-Game Margin JOHNSON STRATEGY “THOUGHT CAUSE OF SENATORS’ DEFEAT Marberry, Who Outpitthed Grove, Is Jerked in Favor of Pinch Hitter ATHLETICS STAGE BIG RALLY HELENE MADISON Cardinals Stretch Lead Over Idle Giants by Defeating Chicago 12 to 5 By HERBERT W. BARKER (Associated Press Sports Writer) To a bit of strategy that worked can Walter Johnson attribute, in part at least, the failure of his Washing- ton Senators to cut into the six-game margin the Philadelphia Atnletics enjoy in the American League race. The Senators gained an even break in a double bill with the A’s Monday but might have won both games had Johnson not resorted to the successful “master-minding” that eventually led to Washington's downfall in the opener. Although the score was tied at 5-5 at the end of the first seven innings, Fred Marrberry had outpitched the A's southpaw ace, Bob Grove, by a =ELEANOR HOLM= GEORGIA COLEMAN They're pretty enough to be movie stars but they’re not.

In the eighth, with two on, Johnson pulled Marrberry out of the lineup to allow Hargrave to bat for him. Hargrave made his strategy look good with a single that drove in one run. Another filtered across be- fore the inning was over to give the! Senators a two-run lead. But the A's, who had made only seven hits off Marrberry, fell on_his successors, Bumps Hadley and Bob Burke, for seven runs. George Earnshaw pitched the last inning and held the Senators in check | to make the final score 12-7. Alvin Crowder kept 10 hits well seattered in the second game to win} 6-4, home runs by Dave Harris and Joe Kuhel accounting for five of the Senator's runs. ‘This double-header completed the American League schedule for the | day while in the National, the St. Louis Cardinals walloped the Chicago Cubs, 12-5 to stretch their lead to four and one-half games over tae idle New York Giants.

The 1 playoff was postponed until to- day to permit Alliss to fulfill exhibi- tion engagements. —_ SPORT SLANTS | ° There's another famous star of golf in retirement along with Bobby Jones. It's Joyce Wethered, probably the greatest women’s champion of all time. Miss Wethered, winner of the Bri- tish women’s championship four times, is definitely out of golf com- Petition and is doing a lot of things she always wanted to do until her. name became a hallmark in the an- nals of golf. Fred Pignon, manager of the Brit- ish Ryder Cup team this year, golf critic and writer for Reuters Lim ited, was talking over English golt during the recent National Open at Inverness when the conversation naturally drifted to Miss Wethered. “Miss Wethered is absolutely through with all competition,” Pig- non said sadly. “She never wanted to play after she got into the lime- “Her career, was a rather odd one.’ Her father, Roger Wethered, was a great golfer and still is and Joyce, possibly out of inquisitiveness, took up the game with the typical Weth- ered determination. To her surprise she soon won the British champion- ship. “She found herself a public figure and wanted to quit it all. But she had to defend her title, lost it and then decided to get it back the next; year. She did in 1924 and then again, in, 1925. “After losing it again in 1926 she quit again until Glenna Collett in- vaded England and the public clamor caused her to change her mind. She won the title back, beating Glenna 3 and 1 in the finals in 1929. Glenna came back in 1930 but Joyce refused to play again. “Wiss Wethered is strongly built; but in my opinion it isn’t so much mere strength and power as the cool- ness of her mind that made her the world’s greatest woman golfer. Un- der fire, she was the steadiest and the most dongerous.” CUB SHAKE-UP BREWS ‘The long expected powder keg at Wrigley Field, home of the Cubs, may explode before the 1931 season ends. Apparently well informed reports by, who has until the end of the 1932 campaign to bring Owner William’ Wrigley a world’s championship base- ball team, plans to startle baseball by selling or trading several of his best known stars such as Hack Wil- son, Pat Malone, Sheriff Blake and one or two others. HORNSBY RETICENT Wilson's slump has been one of the Season's strangest cases. Malone, far more ineffective this season than last,’ has been mentioned as the key man in several possible trades.

D., July 14—?)}— Scoring a 667, or 46 better than their nearest rival, the Grand Forks four- man team loomed as the favorite for the state Legion team golf champion- ship at the first convention tourna- ment of its kind here Monday. ‘Three of the other eight teams have | completed their 36-hole matches with! scores of: Wahpeton 713, Oakes 726, and Williston 759.

D., July 14—(4)— Loraine Udell, Aberdeen, S. D., light heavyweight, knocked out Frank Dvorak, Fargo, in the sixth round of their eight-round bout, the main at- traetion of the state American Le- gion fight card Monday night. Dvorak dropped in the fifth round, ciaiming @ foul, which was not allowed, and a blow to his midsection in the sixth ended the fight. In the semi-windup, Judy Rudy, Grand Forks, won by a technical knockout over Mickey O'Day, Sioux City, Iowa, in the second round of their six round bout. In other six round bouts Albert Zeck, Dilworth, Minn., decisively de- feated Emmet Smith, East Grand Forks, Minn.; Dick Demeroy, Aber- deen, shaded Heenan Summerville, ‘Wahpeton; Bad Boy Knight, Aber- deen, and young Stanley Ketchell, Hebron, fought a draw, and Joe De- Arment, Wahpeton, won by technical knockout over Billy Smith, Valley City, in the sixth.

Canzoneri Smashes His Way to Victory}: Los Angeles, July 14.—(#)—Tony Canzoneri smashed his way to a de- cision over Cecil Payne, the Louis- ville, Ky., looper, to hold safe his junior welterweight championship of the world Monday night before 20,- 000 persons. Crossing a terrific right to the jaw, the Italian from New York floored Payne a minute after the first round opened, but he seemed to tire at the finish as the Kentucky challenger crashed over swinging lefts and rights at long range. At the most, the bout progressed at a tame pace, with the crowd calling for action during the closing stages. The Associated Press card gave Can- zoneri six rounds and Payne three.

L. (Young) Stribling so easily in Cleveland 10 days ago. Speeches by leading sport au- thorities paid tribute to Max as a “shining example of German Sportsmanship” and a “master of all_categories.” Schmeling, perhaps remember- ing the somewhat cold reception that awaited him on his arrival home after winning on a foul from Jack Sharkey, replied: “I'm glad to be back home and T'm glad to have had a chance to Prove myself a genuine cham- pion.” | Wolgast Demonstrates Championship Rights New York, July 14.—(P)—Midget Wolgast, speedy Philadelphian who is recognized in some states as flyweight champion, clearly has demonstrated his right to the crown so far as Ruby (Dark Cloud) Bradley of Holyoke, Mass., is concerned. ‘Wolgast Punched out an easy 15- round decision over the: New England negro in a 15-round title bout at the Coney Island stadium Monday night in the first championship battle there since Jim Jeffries and Jim Corbett clashed for the heavyweight title 30 year ago.
