Diegel Hard Put in Defense of Title : Giants Optimistic as Westerners Visit BOLF PROS START WIDE-OPEN FIGHT Twenty in Field of 64 Have Stuff to Win R. G. A. Event if in Form. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. LUSHING, L. I, September 8. —A wide-open battle 15‘ promised in the Professional | Golfers’ Association cham- | pionship, the qualifying rounds of which began at the Fresh Meadow Country Club near here this morning. For the past 10 years the P. G. A. has been thor- oughly monopolized by Walter Hagen, Gene Sarazen and Leo Diegel. Hagen failed to qualify for this championship and the field shapes up strongly enough to prevent Sarazen and Diegel from becoming too outstanding as_favorites. There are at least 20 players in the qualifying fleld of 64 who have the game and fame to go far in the cham- plonship, if they happen to be hot this week, and there are several others, just coming to the top of their games, who may furnish something of a surprise party for the old-line favorites. Lacey a New One. One of the new stars is Charlie Lacey of Pine Valley. Not long over from England, Lacey gave a good dem- onstration of par playing in the early rounds of the national open and has done well in subsequent tournaments. He has a good, sound game and a fine temperament for the competitive side of golf and is going to be heard from. Lacey does most of his practicing at Pine Valley, and after the New Jersey layout any course seems easy. Both Sarazen and Diegel are playing well and may be the finalists unless they are thrown together along the way. ‘There is no seeding in the P. G. A. pairings and the stars meet all the way along the line instead of being saved for the final rounds. Sarazen never has played particularly well over Fresh Meadow, his home course, but he is hot after victories in the Western open and Lannin Memorial, and if he putts well will be hard to down. Diegel has worked his game into robust condi- tions and will make a great fight to re- tain the title he won in 1928 and 1929. ‘The fleld was to play 36 holes of medal play today, with 32 to qualify for the match rounds that will consume the remainder of the week. Fresh Meadow is long and demands straight shots, but, with the ground still hard, spme low scores likely will ‘be rolled in. ‘There are some corking good holes at Fresh Meadow. The sixteenth measures 587 yards, and it is going to take two ton erful wooden shots to put the player position for a good pitch to the een. Not only must the players be ng there, but also straight, for there 1s plenty of trouble on both sides. The fifth is 578 yards and slightly dogl d. Tt has trouble along the edges. of he fairway, with a water hazard thrown in. Hook Is Fatal ‘The third is an odd hole. It is only 801 yards, but 180 yards of the carry from the tee is over an adjoining farm, and the owner of the farm—so the ’ou—uru nothing for golf and less for golfers chasing over his land look- ing for stray shots. So a hooked ball s just a lost ball and nothing else. Fresh Meadow greens are in superb condition, but very tricky, and not all of the trouble is past once the player es. carpet. It is doubtful if anything over 154 will be worth much Ehen the qualifying scores are checked ‘The absence of Hagen and several other top-ranking pros from the fleld will lead the P. G. A. to change its present system of sectional qualifying or else give the Metropolitan district a gres er number of players. It has been s gested that the first 31 professionals in the national open, plus the defending champion, automatically qualify for the P. G. A. And there have been other ideas submitted. The P. G. A. will con- sider all of them at its annual meeting, and some sort of change will be made before the 1931 championship. BROTHERS BIKE CHAMPS " | Beach, Smith, son and Bambino’s Record Knotted by Hauser By the Associated Press. BALTIMORE, September 8.—Joe Hauser, first baseman of the Balti- more Orioles of International m yesterday drove out his home run of the season and equaled the world record chalked up in 1027 by Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees. The blow came in the fifth lnnln’ of the first game of a double bil with Jersey City. The bases were empty and no one was out. The ball went to the top of the right-field bleachers, where it was retrieved by a fan and returned to Hauser. ALEXANDRIANS SOON | START TOIL ON GRID| Schoolboys Await Arrival of New Coach—Deavers Pilots Fra- ternity Eleven. ALEXANDRIA, September 8 —Alex- andria High School gridmen will begin practice within the next week while J. F, Wilson, coach at George Mason High, has issued a call for his gridders to report on Friday. The day of Alex- andria’s first drill is dependent upon the arrival of Maurice Givens, new coach, who is due here some time this week. ‘Wilbur Wright and “Prenchy” Cohan, Hyattsville, Md., youths, are expected to perform this Winter with the St. Mary’s Celtics quint, with which they played in sensational fashion last year. George Beach, local youth who is captain-elect of the Hargrave Military Academy eleven, of Chatam, Va., will leave Friday for his school. Beach was ranked among the foremost linesmen in prep school ranks in Virginia last Fall and also won the gold medal award at Hargrave each year for the most improved student in the academy. Leslie Deavers has been elected to manage the Alpha Delta Omega foot ball team this season with Lee Newman serving as treasurer and Mike Goldman, former George Washington University star tackle, as coach. ‘The team has obtained the use of Eppa Hunton Fleld for Sunday games and may make entry in the Capital City 145-pound League. Virginia midgets and juniors held their first workout yesterday on Ship- yard Field with Ralph O'Neill and Mouse Briscoe, Virginia A. C. gridiron stars, coaching the candidates. Both elevens show promise of develop- ing into two of the strongest light- weight teams in this section. The juniors have already signed Kenneth Mumford, Roland Boran, Harold Har- per Wheatley, George Gensmer, Hugh Travers, Earl Hamilton, Davis Simpson, Jimmy Newton, Louis Jacobs and Bur- kRosn. with more to be added this week. ‘The midgets have not yet completed their recruiting work, but will be greatly strengthened when the diamond season ends and thoughts of the base ball players turn to the gridiron. So far they have Paul Humphreys, Langley, Pullman, Sheads, Jack- er. TWO FILIPINO NET CROWNS T0 SILVA Wins Singles and Shares Mixed Doubles Title With _Mary Burke. ONGRATULATIONS today were being heaped upon Felix M.| Silva, popular in District tennis circles, following two wins reg- istered by him yesterday in the annual District Filipino net championships.

Rafael L. Garcia, 6—2, 6—0. The latter match ended the tourna- ment. After a weak start, in which he dropped the first four out of five games in the opening set in the singles, Silva found himself and outclassed Rulloda the remainder of the match. Miss Burke's fine play was a big help | to Silva in the mixed doubles final. | At the finish Senator Juan Sumulong of the Phlllpglne Senate presented | prizes, offered by him, to the various winners in the tournament. Besides | Silva and Miss Burke victors were Maj. | Garcia and Mariano A. Erana, who captured the doubles title Saturday, and F. M. Piniera, who took the consolation | singles crown.

Of course, it's really too soon to judge whether or not Gelbert is going to be a major league success, like the Gehrigs, Frisches, Sewells and Stephensons (all of whom were college foot ball players of note), but the boy seems to be making good all right.

Washing}on’s Last Big W}eek' Of Golf Sees Three Events ASHINGTON'S last big week of golf begins today on a wide front as the individuals who hoped to say it with birdies began the attack for the junior championship at Columbia; woman golfers were playing in a tourney at Congressional, and scores of players were practicing over the course of the Ban- nockburn Golf Club in preparation for the forthcoming invitation tournament of the club, scheduled to start next Wednesday. Late this afternoon Chairman Fred Byrne of the Bannockburn Golf Com- mittee will emerge from a huddle with & group of his fellow club men, holding in his hands a list of the linksmen who will attempt to qualify over the rugged Bannockburn course for the match play rounds in the tourney on Friday and Saturday. Up to an early hour today more than 200 names had been received for the event, while the names that were expected to be received probably will push the list of entries well over the 230 mark. Inasmuch as there will be only five flights to qualify—which means 80 play- ers, and they must qualify under the Pinehurst system (in the flights to which their handicaps rate them)—it already is certain that Bannockburn's hills and dales will see some merry struggling on Wednesday and Thursday as the knights of the driver and mashie attempt to adhere closely to par. The course is not in the best of condition. What course could be after the pro- longed drought? But the committees in charge of the event are cheerful and are moving toward the coming tourna- ment with that spirit and optimism which always makes the Bannockburn tourney one of the outstanding events of the season about the Capital. Over at Congressional Mrs. H. A. Knox of the host club was in charge of & one-day match play against par tour- ney, staged by the Women's District Golf Assoclation as one of the final events on their schedule, while at Co- lumbia the i]unlor golfers of the club were to qualify today and conclude one match play round for the junior title. In this event Tommy Bones, already holder of the Congressional Junior title, will attempt to make it a double. He is one of the favorites to win. IXTEEN golfers of the Manor Club yesterday played in a match for the dinners at the club on the basis of the average scores turned in. The team composed of Fred Rade, E. M. McClel- land, H. L.

Factory, Detroit EX DEALERS EVERYWHERE PENNANT AT STAKE IN LAST INVASION McGrawmen Have Done Well on Home Lot—Cards Now 2 1-2 Games From Top. BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR., Associated Press Sports Writer, HE National League pennant race depends on the final intersectional series with the Western clubs playing in the East, and this raises the hopes of the third-place Giants. The Giants have done well so far this season in entertaining Westerners, while the Cubs have turned in about as many vic- tories in the East as their stay- at-home rivals. The St. Louls Cardinals now hold sec- ond place and are closer to the league- leading Cubs than any team has been for some time. The Cards fell down in their first visit to the East, but since then have had a great string of victories in their own section, both at home and on the road, and have moved from fourth place into second, only two and one-half games behind the league leaders. Score Double Victory. A double victory over the Cincinnati Reds yesterday—11 to 6 and 4 to 2— made seven straight victories and a clean sweep of the 11 home games against Cincinnati. The Cubs and the Giants both lost single games, leaving the Cards only two and one-half games away from the leaders and one and one-half games ahead of New York. While Rhem and Haines were hold- ing the Reds in check, the latter with a five-hit performance, four Cub pitch- ers failed to stop Pittsburgh. The Cubs overcame one Pittsburgh lead only to have the Pirates score six runs in the last three innings for a 9-to-7 triumph. The Giants found the Brooklyn jinx working during a one-game visit to Flatbush. Dazzy Vance did most of the Jinxing, while the Robins supported him with timely hitting and brilliant field- ing to win, 5 to 2. The victory left the Robins only a half game behind the Giants and four and one-half games back of Chicago. Two teams which are clear out of the running put the leaders to shame in yesterday's performances, as the Phillies and the Boston Braves split a double-header. _Philadelphia won the first, 1 to 0, although Ed Brandt al- lowed only two hits, while Phil Collins gave the Braves seven. Boston turned the tables in the second, winning 2 to 1, although Ray Benge outpitched Harry s‘exgg‘ld to the extent of five hits to eig] Macks Nicked. set to put the American League pennant away in their locker after two innings against Washington, but the Griffs, after losing a game on Saturday, scored two runs in the ninth to win, 7 to 6. The teams start their final tour of the West with the Athletics 612 games ahead. ‘The New York Yankees tottered on the verge of mathematical elimination from the race, as they dropped the first game of a twin bill to the Boston Red Sox, 5 to 3, while the A's were ahead, but they recovered by winning the sec- ond game, 5 to 2, and retained the bare possibility of beating out the leaders. The Detroit Tigers and St. Louis Browns ended their season’s play all- | square when the Browns pounded out |a 9-to-6 victory in their rain-hampered | final clash.
