BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. ERION CRICKET CLUB, September 15.—The boys are certainly making it easy for Bobby Jones in this championship. If ever a man had a hand-picked tournament to | win and do it without half trying | Bobby Jones has this one in the| bag. | In other years he has had to hurdle a lot of tough champs, but | this year the unknown kids from Detroit, California and Boston have removed the obstacles from Bobby's path until all he has to do now is to breeze in under wraps to become the first man in the history of the game to win four major championships in a single year. Or, as Freddie Mc- Leod says, “It’s just another set- up.” Freddie made this remark yesterda: y as he watched young Charlie Seaver knock off George J. Voigt, considered the toughest gent Jones had to beat. ‘There never has been a championship like this one. Look down the list of those who came up for the third round today. Up there in the top bracket ‘which produce the man to meet the final, provided the fi:t through his T bracket, and see what there is to beat. Voigt was the main actor in that half after Francis Ouimet was beaten yesterday morning and then st out and took it on the chin from young Charlie Seaver. That ‘where Jones is the toughest part of the May Face McCarthy. Jones yet must beat either Maurice or & great birdie 3. Not Sweetser of Old. McCarthy had the edge most of the ‘way in this match. He was 2 mlnd 3 to go, but three-putted the teenth McCarthy should have won on the seventeenth, but he missed a five-footer for a winning 3, and at the eighteenth Von Elm, his grim face sho the strain, laid an iron shot stone dead to the hole with a birdie 3. So they went on and on, with McCarthy three-putt- ing the second extra hole, where he had Von Eim in the bag. The son of the old Flatbush pro hung on as only he can cling and finally won the match with one of his greatest shots, a chip that ended three inches from the hole. Von Elm took a 4 and conceded McCarthy the victory. But to get back to the Jones man. Only one man is left who ever has beaten him, and that is Sweetser. And Sweetser is far from the Sweetser of 1922, when he smothered Bobby by 8 and 7. If Sweetser beats McCarthy today—and that is hardly likely—Jones will_smother Sweetser as Jess hung it on Bobby eight years ago. No one else left in the championship except Jones and Sweetser ever has gone as far as the third round before, which should be the tip-off on what they have done for the Jones boy. If he doesn’t win the world will end tomorrow. He is just too good for them at 36 holes. That is his distance and no man has been able to stop him over the route except Von Elm, and Von Elm is out. Probably no one else can do it. Seeded Stars Fade. Certainly this is the queerest cham- })ionsmp that has been played for the ast decade. Not a seeded man, with the exception of Jones, remains in the champlonship today. Sweetser and Mc- Carthy were in the second, but they were not seeded. And six of the eight who remain are complete strangers to the third round of the championship. Not that they are not capable golfers— they must have been to get where they are—but they have never been so far before. Can it be that the old order is changing? It seems so, as all the favorites flop, while Jones keeps on. If Jones wins this one, jatch for an announcement that he is fthrough with competition in the open championship. He probably will play in the amateur until he is a portly old fellow who swings around his middle, but he is getting ready to announce his retire- ment from the open. He will defend his open champjonship until some one beats him and then will devote himself to the amateur. Coleman is the chap who shot a 69 in the qualifying round, but he is not the boy to beat Jones over Bobby's hand-picked distance. Consider those who went out yester- day in the morning over that crushing 18-hole distance where Jones finally has found hims:1f after the British amateur. Where most of the matches are at 18 holes. Out went Francis Oulmet at the hands of Charles Kocsis of Detroit. Out went Phil Perkins, former British champion at the hands of Johnny Leh- man, the Western champion.

And in the afternoon we watched George Voigt miss three iron shots in a row—something he never before has done to our knowledge—to lose a 2-to-1 decision to young Seaver, while Jones was playing sad golf to beat Pred Hoblitzell of Toronto, by 5 and 4. Hoblitzell, you will remember, played in 3 up, which shows the kind of golf that the emperor was shooting. But to get back to that Goodman-McHugh match. That was one of the finest thrillers that giant killer, was 1 down playing the sixteenth and he left his approach putt 15 feet He holed it for a half. At the 215-yard seventeenth he nearly holed his tee shot for an ace, and Johnny McHugh countered by running down 8 5-foot putt for a half in birdie 2s.

The end came on the seventeenth, which they halved in par 3s. Jess Sweetser holed two of the finest putts that ever have been holed in this or any other championship to finally win a fighting second round match from Jack Ahearn of Buffalo. Both Sweetser and Ahearn got in the tour- nament on a play-off for the last few places and they fought each other like a pair of terrier pups.. Ahearn out- dubbed the former champion through most of the match and Jess outlasted the taciturn Buffalo man. Sweetser was 2 down with 3 to play, but he canned a 40-footer on the sixteenth to win. They halved the seventeenth and Jess went to the home hole dormie. Here he holed another 40-footer to win the hole with a par 4 when anything short of perfection would have put him in the gallery. And he finally wound up with & par 4 on the nineteenth when Ahearn ob} gly trapped his tee shot. Meanwhile, Johnny Lehman was so- Jjourning his leisurely way through two matches and will be no set-up today as he matches shots with Eugene Homans for the right to enter the semi-final. HAS GOOD LEAD AT GOLF Virginia Van Wie Six Strokes in Van in Western Event. CHICAGO, September 25 (#).—Vir- ginia Van Wie of Chicago, one of the “Big Four” of American woman golf- ers, apparently had to play nothing bet- ter than ordinary golf today to retain her lead in the third round of the Western 72-hole derby event. Miss Van Wie yesterday added a 79 to her record 77 of Tuesday and was six strokes in front of Mrs. O. 8. Hill of Kansas City. Mrs. Hill pulled up a little yesterday by shooting a fine 77 to equal Miss Van Wie's course record at Glen View. However, she had an 85 Tues- day for a total of 162.

TWELVE CHICUBS MAY GO IN WHOLESALE SHAKE-UP Manager-to-Be Hornsby Maintains Silence, but Is Said to Be Planning Releases, Trades and Sales by Wholesale for Next Year. By the Assoctaled Press. . HICAGO, September 25~Ru- mors and reports continued to sell or trade members of the Cubs today, but the same old band, still operating under Joe McCar- thy, went out to protect what remained of their chnnc: to win the National League pennant. Rogers Hornsby, the heir apparent to McCarthy’s office, still was Rogers Hornsby, second baseman, but he al- ready was thinking of 1931 when he will be in charge of actual operations. However, Hornsby didn't say what he was thinking, leaving that to whoever might care to speculate. One report which gained wide cre- dence, said that 12 members of the 1930 squad were possibilities for release, sale or trade. The report apparently was based on logic, as it included the names of players who have shown definite signs of slowing up too much for the Hornsby requirements, or have failed to fulfill expectations. Stephenson, a ul bats- man, but suffering from injuries which removed him from the arena during the most critical stages of the battle, was mentioned as one about to leave, as was Capt. Charlie Grimm, who because of injuries during the past season and a ear ago, was Kept out. The list also cluded infielders Lester Bell, Clyde ‘Beck snd Eddie Farrell. Bell reported with & lame arm last Spring and never Tegained Beck's hit- ‘while never has been of major league . Farrell played brilllantly for a while after he was obtained on waivers 1a! On the condition of Charlie Root’s pltching arm, according to the story, depends his status. If it does not re- spond to treatment he is to go. Pitchers Lynn Nelson, Al Shealy and Jess Petty are placed in the doubtful class, while Bud Teachout and Bob Os- born, another pair of pitchers, may be used in trades, with Outfielders Clff Heathcourt and Dan Taylor possibilities for the same fate. Rumors of ill-feeling between Man- ager-elect Hornsby and several players caused President Willlam L. Veeck to say that any one who didn't get along with Hornsby would not remain with the club. Pat Malone was McCarthy’s choice to pltch _against Cincinnati today, while Dan Howley was expected to send out Bennie Frey, a youngster who has caused the Cubs plenty of trouble. Defeat for Chicago and a victory for St. Louls would settle up the pennant race and leave Chicago free to give its attention to the city series, which will start next Wednesday—unless the unexpected oc- curs and the Cardinals collapse and the Cubs win four straight. Match With Hoblitzell Would Make Stage Skit, Says Jones BY O. B. KEELER, Yor the Associated Press. RDMORE, Pa., September 25.— Bobby Jones appearec somewhat embarrassed after his bout with Pred Hoblitzel of Toronto in the second round of the national amateur championship. Jones, who had shot golf in the morn- ing match characterized by one of the visiting Englishmen as “most destruc- tive”—he had finished off the first nine 3—3—2 for a total of 33, and had set- tled his match with Ross Somerville right there—was not so hot in the mat- inee session, Jones went out in around 42, with a ball out of bounds, and was 2 up. “It was one of the funn'est rounds I ever took part in,” said Bobby, later. “I wish they could arrange a vaudeville act for Pred and me. than anything I could do in the movies.” Gets Back Safe. One of the funniest things, Jones said, was the manner in which he won the eighth hole after driving out of bounds. Standings in Major Leagues American League. YESTERDAY'S RESULTS.

Bobby drove into a bunker and falled to get out with his explosion. He blasted once more and the ball was on the edge of the green, while his oppo- nent was well on the carpet in the or- thodox two shots. He then struck a putt which was di- rected with considerable accuracy, but propelled with sufficient velocity to have been half across the green on the other side, except for one circumstance. This circumstance was that the ball struck the back of the cup with a resounding plunk, hopped up nearly a foot, and dropped straight back in for & half in 4. r 4. ‘The play at the perilous eleventh hole was also funny, but with a tinge of the heroic about it. A Fancy Birdle. Bobby was on the green 4 yards from the stick with a fine drive and second. ‘The Canadian was so far off line from the tee that his only conceivable pitch was over a tree some 50 feet tall. There was nothing in the world to do except try it, so he closed his eyes and busted the ball as hard as he could with a pitching tool. The ball went almost straight up, twigging its way through the topmost foliage of the tree and de- scended almost perpendicularly to the green where it stopped € feet from the stick.

ONLY RUMOR YET Red Sox President Denies Any Managerial Change Has Been Arranged. BY JOHN B. KELLER. OSTON, September 25.—If B Muddy Ruel, veteran back- stop with the Nationals, is to become manager of the Red Sox next season, Bob Quinn doesn’t know it—and Bob Quinn is president of the Red Sox. Says Quinn, “A man doesn’'t get a job until it’s vacant, and Heinie Wa{ ner still is manager of my club. What's more, the Boston execu- tive declares he has not talked with Ruel nor any other player or manager in the game today con- cerning the management of the Red Sox in 1931. “I'll say frankly,” Quinn states, “that in some ways the Red Sox disappointed me this season, They have fine pitchers and have been better defensively than in some years, but here we are last again. But,” he adds, “I'm not trying to pin the blame on any particular person right now. I want to consider everything carefully before I make any move. If I let Wagner go he’ll be first to know it. I'd tell him before making any announcement to the press.” EPORTS that Ruel is to succeed ‘Wagner as the Red Sox pilot have irked the Boston president no lit- tle. “Many of them seem to know more about my business than I do,” he complains. “When the Ruel rumor was sprung in the West not so long ago and the base ball writers here approached me I told them just what I ve told every one who has ques- tioned me about the matter since— that Wagner still has the job and that I had not entered into negotiations with any one to take over the helm from Heinie, “Yet one paper here went ahead and fired Wagner, named Ruel as his certain successor next Spring and. car- ried pictures and the base ball his- tory of the Washington catcher. That was not fair to Ruel or me. I like Muddy, have liked him ever sirce I have known him and that's some years. He always called on me when he was in St. Louis while I was connected with the club there and he always has visited me here. But I have not talked business with him.” UEL, m.&enxu that thc"j‘ob as manager of the Red Sox next year has been offered him. “I know ‘more of this than what I have the papers” the Nationals' veteran says. “No one with ority has spoken to me of such In fact, I couldn't do anything about looking for a job with a club other than Washing- ton without getting Mr. Griffith’s per- mission and that I have not asked. And it isn’t likely that any responsible club attache would sound me on such a proposition without first speaking to the Washington president. So far as I know, no one has approached Mr. Grif- fith. I haven't, and no one has come to me.” HETHER Ruel will get the job can't be told, and certainly the Washington catcher cannot say he would take it if offered him. But there is a strong feeling here that ‘Wagne Red Sox read catchi any auf in er will not manage the after the close of the current campaign. It is held that the Red Sox officials as well as the Boston fans do not be- lieve Wagner has done as well with the club as he might have done. As the fans view the trouble there has been too much juggling of plagers and too little attenfion given to the club’s more promising material. LL of which may be very unfair to ‘Wagner. The lot of a Red Sox manager has not been & happy one for years. This season the club at the outset seemed to possess more of a chance of bettering its standing than it had in several seasons past. It started with a fine lot of pitchers and most of its players benefited by several years in the big show. It enjoyed a good Spring, then slumped so that 14 defeats in a row were suffered. That brought the fans down on Wagner's hea ‘The Red Sox perhaps a trifle better than formerly, but still are far from strong. There’s much building up to be done. If Wagner was expected to complete the building in one season, evidently the job was too much for him. And it isn't likely to be a pleas- ant task for his successor. ITH one big inning the Red Sox upset Al Crowder and his fellow Nationals in the opener of the four-game series yesterday and went on to handily, 6 to 3. The Na- tionals collected nine safeties and four passes off Hod Lisenbee, and before the third round ended had staked Crowder to a three-run lead. Thereafter, how- ever, Lisenbee was close with his hits when hits meant anything, while Crow- der blew with a loud bang in the fifth and the Red Sox tucked away the game. After getting the first man out in this frame Crowder yielded six hits in suc- cession, which with, a flelder's choice chucked in accounted for five runs. Two more hits that raised to 10 the Red Sox game total and an infield erasure in the eighth netted the home side its sixth tally.

The National League pennant race finally has arrived at the point where it may be settled in one day's play. St. Louis starts its final four-game series against Pittsburgh, and Chicago clashes with the Cincinnati Reds.

Yet if St. Lauis wins, the best they can hope for is a tle, while the Cards need but two vic- tories in four games to clinch the title, no matter what the Cubs do. Traynor*Hits Homer. ‘The rivals of the two leaders clashed yesterday, but without giving the fans much chance to see what they may do today. Rain interrupted the game sev- eral times, and finally halted it in the sixth inning, bringing Pittsburgh a 5- to-1 victory. Pie Traynor's home run in the first inning sent the Pirates off to a lead that never was threatened, as Larry French gave only five hits in the short game. Brooklyn's floundering Robins dropped into fourth place as they lost to the last - place Phillles. With successive first-inning homers by Chuck Klein and Don Hurst as the starting point, the Phils continued to hit hard and won by 6 to 3. It was Brooklyn's seventh straight defeat and left the Robins a half game behind the New York Giants Klein's homer was his fortieth of the season.

Yester- day the Redwings started out in quest of the title for the third straight year, but dropped the first game to the Louis- ville Colonels, American Association 1930 title holders. ‘The Colonels battered six runs across the plate in the fourth inning and eventually won, 7 to 3. The Redwings outhit their Western rivals, 11 to 9, but Phil Weinert, Louisville’s southpaw ace, was stingy with his blows in the pinches. Paul Derringer, the Redwings' start- ing pitcher, was driven from the mound in the fourth and Carleton and Ira Smith finished.

By the Associated Pre EW YORK, September 25.— If the pre-fight gate ree ceipts are any criterion, then it doesn’t make much of a difference to very many peos ple if Jack Sharkey lowers Viee torio Campolo, the Argentine, to the mat for the count of 10, or vice versa, when they come to- gether in their 15-round heavy- weight bout at the Yankee Sta- dium tonight. Unless there is a last-minute mad rush to the box office there'll be many yawning gaps in the huge ball park ‘when the two heavyweights step into the ring between 8:30 and 9 p.m. (Eastern standard time). Predictions were that the receipts would not go much above the $100,000 mark, and if such be the case, then Madison Square Garden faces a substantial loss. Sharkey, making his first appear- ance since losing to Max Schmel on a foul in June, will enter the ring the 2-to-1 favorite over his bigger but cruder South American opponent. The ‘Boston sailor will have not only the advantage of the betting odds, if that be an advantage, but his take of the gate will be $100,000. In con Campolo will receive only training exe penses, about $7,500. ‘The garden, which manages Cam- polo, has high hopes that the Argen- tine heavyweight will come through to- night, furnish the biggest upset of the fistic season and provide an outstand- ing opponent for Young Stribling in the annyal battle of the palms at Miami next Winter.

CHICAGO IS NAMED FOR NEXT AMATEUR Beverly Course Extends Partly With Limits of Metropolis. Is Severely Trapped. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, September 25.—In choos- ing the Beverly Country Club for the 1931 national amateur golf champion- ship, the United States Golf Association picked a course much nearer the heart of a city than is usual. The Beverly links is half within the city limits and with its club house at Western avenue and East Eighty-seventh street only 14 miles from the City Hall. It was on this course that Chick Evans won the Western open cham- pionship in 1910. The terrain is rolling, with two blufts giving charming views of the wooded course. It is severely trapped, except for the ninth green, and the eighteenth hole is & sm dogleg that requires con- summate for perfect scoring. 225 SR R e = - 23 3 [T PRSP PSRN O wotnca 82828 SoooscnmOnsUnarNEEachE Bl 25858 S8z couwanSn.S8; 5y 3 : 8 HRASS AT e 5 on220222,.88!
