- MARKS BISMARCK’S | 2-0 SHUTOUT WIN Desiderator, Massmann, Jus- tice, O’Rourke Contribute Sparkling Plays SLEFKA, TROUPE HIT HARD Teams Leave for Minot and Four Canadian Tourneys on Successive Days A display of brilliant fielding, that rivaled anything you might see in the major leagues, came very nearly tak- ing the spotlight away from Hilton Smith, dusky Capital City pitcher, as he hurled Bismarck to a 2-0 shutout victory over Valley City at the base- ball park here Sunday. Smith was in rare form as he put “the old silencer” on the Hi-Liners’ heavy artillery. He gave up only two scattered singles—one to Schauer in the second and one to Wilton in the aixth—struck out five, issued three walks and allowed only one Valley City man to see third base: But the big Negro’s mound perfor- mance was overshadowed, if a two- hit slab job can be overshadowed, by the sparkling fielding of the two teams which included three double Plays, one by Axel Leary, unassisted. Sharing the plaudits to the victors with Smith were Joe Desiderato and Harold Massmann in the fielding end Robs Desiderato robbed O'Rourke of a hit in the eighth inning with a play + drew a big burst of applause from the some 300 fans that watched game during the chilly, wet day. Leading off in that inning O'Rourke lined a sizzling grounder between Joe and the third base bag. Lunging at the ball, Desiderato went right down on the id to make the stop but quickly recovered to throw O'Rourke out at first. Justice really got credit for starting fielding spectacle when in the inning after Bismarck had one run and had another the paths he ran way in from ition to leap high @ one-handed with a round, the like of which has Massmann handled five assists and two putouts without a bobble and top- ped a busy day at the keystone sack by racing over behind first base to make a great running catch of Schau- er’s fly ball in the seventh. Bismarck counted its initial run in the first time at bat. Massmann laced out @ clean double but was thrown out at third on a fielder’s choice as Desiderato went to first. singled sending Joe to third home on Haley's fly to After threatening twice more in the fourth and sixth frames, they in the seventh. Slefka his second single of the Massmann with his two-bagger led Bismarck’s seven-hit attack on Thomas. Threaten in Third Valley City’s only real scoring threat was made in the third inning. Chell got to first on a fielder’s choice and advanced to third on Schauer’s . The scoring bid died there when. Desiderato threw Schauer out at second for the final putout. ‘The two teams go to Minot Mon- dey where they play a twilight game tonight.

His final round, 33-31—64, gave him a 72-hole total of 274, surpassed only by Tom- my Armour’s tournament record of 273 at Milwaukee in 1929. i Sunday, on the up and down hilly Davenport Country club layout, trail- ing Ray Mangrum, Dayton, Ohio, professional, by three strokes as the final 18 holes started, he cut loose seldom been seen in major competi- tion. He had faded off to a 75 in the; morning, after previous rounds of 68 and 67, but on that final teur, made his clubs do everything except whistle. His total was three strokes under the 277 which gave Mangrum, a pace- setter for two days, second place. Third place went to young Byron | Nelson of New York, who finished a stroke behind Mangrum. “Light| Horse” Harry Cooper was fourth with | 279, and Zell Eaton of Oklahoma City, and Horton Smith of Chicago, tied at 281. Macdonald Smith followed with 282, | Frank Walsh of Chicago had 284,/ while the 1935 winner, Johnny Revolta of Evanston, Ill., and little Tony Pen- na of Chicago, tied at 285. Marion Miley Begins Trans Title Defense Denver, June 22.—(#)—Marion Miley, the 22-year old brunette with @ boyish bob, looked over the field in the women’s trans-Mississippi golf tournament Monday and admitted she faced peril from several quarters as she started defense of her title. “Ive thought of at least eight girls who will be awfully hard to beat,” said the Lexington, Ky., girl, “and that isn’t counting the dark horses. Asked whom she regarded as her most dangerous opponents, Miss Miley named Patty Berg, Minneapolis red-| head; Dorothy Traung, San Fran-/ cisco; Beatrice.

Fritz Pollard Enters Tryouts in Decathlon Milwaukee, June 22.—(?)—A fresh- man at North Dakota university and son of the one-time star Negro half- back at Brown, Fritz Pollard, Jr., en- tered Monday the American Olympic decathlon final tryouts. Pollard, who is training at Grand Forks, N. D., has made excellent marks in all 10 of the decathlon events, and is expected to make a strong showing in his efforts to be- come a member of the Olympic team. He also will compete in the 110 meter high hurdle race of the central Olympic track and field semi-final | trials to be conducted concurrently. Others who entered the decathlon j Monday included Anthony Mannino, New York, the first to file from the; east; John Hayward, Grinnell college, | and Robert Fletcher, Washington state college.

After four other clubs had failed, it took the lowly Brooklyn Dodgers, deep in the cellar, to stop the Cubs’ victory run at 15 straight Sunday, with Van Lingle Mungo, one-man re- volution. and Dodger “goat” of only ‘last week, cast in the role of hero. But, with the league-leading Card- inals’ pitching staff, except for Dizzy Dean and possibly Roy Parmelee, growing weaker and weaker, the Cubs’ 2%4-week winning stretch, and its ac- companying tight hurling and heavy hitting, makes the Windy City clout- ers the pick of the circuit.

As it was, the Cubs stayed a half: game back in second place, just @ game in front of the pounding Pitts- burgh Pirates, who nosed out the Phillies 7-6 in a battle of homers in bin Arky Vaughan hammered out @ pair, Berger’s Homer Wins A homer also decided the other National League game, with Wally Berger clubbing the four-bagger to give the Boston Bees their series over the Reds with a final 3-2 win. The Yankees, meantime, were drop- ping their second straight decision to the supposedly slipping Detroit Tigers, 8-7, despite Joe DiMaggio's home run. The loss, however, only cut a half-game off the Yanks’ five- game American League lead, since the second-place Red Sox could get no better than an even break in their double bill with the cellar-holding St. Louls Browns, who won the night- cap, 6-3, after Wes Ferrell turned in the day’s best pitching performance in the opener, allowing but two hits in a 3-0 shutout. Detroit's victory over the Yanks boosted the Tigers into a fourth-place ‘tie, as the Cleveland Indians trounced the Senators 8-3 to drop them out of a third-position deadlock.

GOLF THE SHORTER THE CLUB THE CLOSER THE STANCE IS TAKEN TO THE BALL BY ART KRENZ NEA Service Golf Writer i Many golf instructors err when they inform their pupils that there is lit- tle difference between the stroke for the wood and that for the iron. What they probably mean is that the basic fundamentals are the same. The iron swing is a more vertical stroke than the wood. The irons are shorter, necessitating a stance closer to the ball. Then there is a difference in the position the ball is played. For the wood, it is off the left heel or instep, moving back toward the right foot for the shorter woods and fur- ther still for the irons. Since the iron is a stroke in which a limited amount of distance is de- sired, the backswing is shortened. In the wood shot, the club is taken to the limit of the backswing, with over- swinging being guarded against.
