| ABSENCE OF BOBBY JONES GIVES MEET AN ‘OPEN’ ASPECT ~ Hostilities for First Two Days ; , Will be Aimed at Qualify- ing in First Flight / THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. MONDAY, AUGUST 31,1931 _- Paul Derringer Is Leading Rookie in Big League Circles \ ‘WAYS ARE DIFFICULT fers Will Fight it Out Over the Course at Beverly Country Club Chicago, Aug. 31—(P)—The golf stampede of the year, perhaps of years, opened over the treacherous fairways of the Beverly Country club today as 141 wielders of wood and iron began their rush for the national field possessing a fine chance to slip ‘With Bobby Jones out of the pic- ture, the last of his four major titles surrendered without a shot, the fight had the complexion of a wide open free-for-all with at least half the field possessiong a fine chance to slip into the throne room of American amateur golf. Many veterans were back, hut they were confronted with a large number of rising stars, many of whom never had to face the genius of a Jones. The former kings of American ama- teur golf who were back on the firing line were Francis Ouimet, who won the title back in 1914; Charles “Chic! Evans, a two-time holder with vic- tories in 1916 and '20; Max Marston, 1923, and Harrison “Jimmie” John- ston, who beat Jones out for the title in 1929 with a notable assist from Johnny Goodman of Omaha, one of Chance to Finish Ahead of All Contenders (By The Associated Press) Travelling at his present clip, Big dinals will have little difficulty quali- fying as the outstanding major league rookie of 1931. He might even, with ‘a little luck, finish his first season as the leading pitcher of the National \League. When he shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5 to 0, in the first game of a {double-header yesterday, the former Rochester ace fixed his record for the year at fifteen victories and six de-| jfeats. His winning average !s topped |by only one regular, Jess Haines, also of the Cardinals. The day's outstanding performance went to Phil Collins of the Phillies, who allowed only one hit in beating the New York Giants, 3 to 0, in the second game of a double-header. |17th victory as the Boston Braves teenth victory as the Boston Braves humbled the Brooklyn Robins, 3 to 2, jin the first half of a twin bill.

D., Aug. 31.—(4)— The war drums of the Sioux are bea’ ing for another campaign and Big Chief C. A. West, who has sent out the call for his warriors, sits in his wigwam here mixing medicine which he hopes will be potent enough to overcome his enemies again this fall. Faced with a schedule of 11 games that include two on eastern soll, four in the North Central conference and jbattles with DePauw, Oregon and St Olaf, University of North Dakota {athletic authorities will consider | themselves fortunate if the 1931 grid outfit can equal the record of their ‘last three teams, none of which lost ‘more than a single game. | West has called back 41 athletes to open practice here Setp. 1, a squad that |can scarcely match the 1930 collection {in reserve strength, and one which |may be better or may not match last year's champions on the field, depend- jing on what some of the sophomore |stars do, | If West can fill his empty tackle | posts with men as good as Vern Smith and Claude Urevig the 1931 line will be better than last year's. If Ralph Pierce, sophomore speed sensation, does all that is expected of him in |the backfield, West's ball carrying de- partment is fixed. Back in togs will be Captain John Burma, fullback and Lloyd Richmond, blocking half, a pair of veterans. With {them in the backfield will be Larry, i Knauf, another half with a year of, experience; Wexler, Ben Jacobson,’ Vern DuChene, Gene Revel, Bob Bab- ‘cock and Elliott Thomas, all reserves ‘from alst season. Hamilton Simons, ‘a half with two year’s reserve expe- |rience, may not return as he is con- templating finishing his education at Washington, D. C. Sophomore backs of promise are Ralph Pierce, Duane Neuenschwander, Rop Dablow, and Art Gustafson. The returning linemen who have earned letters are: Fred Felber, end of two years experience; Bill Lowe, two-year guard; Gordon Dablow, two- year guard; Joe Bourne, two-year center; Art Malo, one-year center; Ray Gillson, two-year center; Lloyd Nelson, one-year end; Bill Murray, one-year tackle; Darrel Long, one- year tackle. Reserves of experience are 'Sam Nesting, end; Milton Wick, tackle; Egizii, guar Klepstein, guard. West lost Lyle Madsen, a two-year reserve tackle when the ath- lete was killed this summer in an automobile accident. Begin Grind Tuesday a pair of Giant tackles figured to become regulars. Pete Stablein is the outstanding center prospect among the newcomers while Wills, Benz and Mahowald are the guards. Johnson, another tackle candidate, is recoveting from an operation for appendicitis and will not be available. Only Six Veterans Coach Ernest Kotchian, How- ever, Will Have Large Squad Out For Eleven Fessenden, N. D., Aug. 31.—Only |dates when Coach Ernest Kotchian musters his Fessender high school football squad for its first practice Sept. 4. They are Captain R. Fahey, H. Rappuhn, B. Bietz, H. Dunham, D. Price, and H. Martin. A host of new men will be on the squad, however. Only three home games are on the schedule, with McClusky playing here Sept. 18, Rugby here Oct. 30 and Har- very here Nov. 11. Other games in- clude: At Jamestown Sept. 25; at Drake, Oct. 2; at Harvey, Oct. 9; at Mohall, Oct. 17; and at Carrington, Nov. 6. Bismarck is eager to schedule a game with Fessenden but so far the two schools have been unable to arrange a suitable date. “SCRAPPIN’ HOOSIERS” SMALL The smaller, speedy football player is the vogue again at Indiana Uni- versity.
