SPORTS. BULKY SCRAPPERS FIGHT WEDNESDAY Clash Should Provide Some Fun, but Is Unlikely to Prove Instructive. N posed by the Madison Square Garden Corpora- tion, if neither of the principals falls down and breaks a leg in training, and, lastly, if the weather man is willing, those two pugilistic Behemoths, Primo Carnera of Italy and Pat Redmond of Ireland and Australia, will be shoved into the Ebbets’ Field ring Wednesday night with gloves on their paws.

Many recent combats 1n the ring have lacked either of those qualities. Volces have been heard crying that Redmond is not a fit opponent for Car- nero. Why? Surely not merely because he has yet to show that he knows how to fight. Rarely has Primo consented to enter the ring with any one who knew him. In fact, it is very much in doubt whether the Ambling Alp himself , knows how. | Tom O'Rourke, who is directing Red- | mond's destinies, admits privately that| Pat is nothing to rave about. In his heart, Tom feels that Joe Walcott, his one-time colored welterweight, prob- ably could have disposed of Pat in short order had they been contempo- raneous. Redmond Not Lonesome. “But,” remarks O'Rourke, ‘show me 8 heavyweight in the game today who measures up. Show me one and I will pipe down. If you ask me, I consider that Redmond has a good chance to tip over Carnera. Pat is almost as big as Primo. Pat, 1 am sure, can hit * harder than Primo. We are gambling that he will lay his right hand on Primo's chin with sufficient force to flatten him. If he does, Pat will be in the money.

Redmond, 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighing abcut 230 pounds, has done all of his fighting at the smaller clubs. Carnera has appeared only once be- fore in New York.

Officials generally believed they would bhave to go East to get a man satislactory to all 10 schools in the conference, The faculty men decided to give the recommendations of the graduate managers a one-year try in voting to employ a commissioner to “assist in the consideration of problems con- fronting the conference and make recommendations on the basis of which a determination may be as to future policies and methods of ad- ministration.” Prof. Willlam Owens of Stanford, president of the faculty body, was appointed to choose & committee to select the man and name his salary. OVER 100 SEEK DIXIE WOMEN'S GOLF TITLE Contesting for Honors at Princess Anne Links. VIRGINIA BEACH, Va, June 8 (#)—Qualitying rounds of the twen- tieth annual women’s Southern golf champlonship were postponed today until tomorrow because of the drenched condition of the Princess Anne course after an overnight rain. VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., June 8. —Four former champions today led a field of more than a hundred woman players into the 18-hole qualifying round of the twentieth annual Southern golf championship over the Princess Anne Country Club course here. Mrs. David Gaut, the champion, does not have to qualify, but a quartet of | previous winners are entered. These include Margaret Maddox of Atlanta, 1929 winner; Mrs. Marion Turpie Lake of New Orleans, 1926 and 1928 victor; Mrs. Ruth Reymond of New Orleans, 1927 champion, and Mrs. Helen Lowndes Lumpkin of Atlanta, who triumphed in 1922-24. Mrs. Gaut of Memphis has won the Dixie crown four times, in 1920, 1921, 1923 and 1930. ‘Today’s low scores will form the group eligible for champlonship compe- titlon.

Coach Robert Zuppke of Illinois told the Optimist Club of St. Louis that big foot ball gates are a “‘good sign” because “people should worship the best.” THE SPORTLIGHT BY GRANTLAND RIC| Into Action. E are now moving into the general direction ©of fast action. The crews are warming up at Poughkeepsie in what should be the greatest regatta ever held, barring no place. Cornell, Syracuse, Columbia and Washington alone will give you all the thrills one system can carry without breaking down. And there are others. Then on Wednesday night, at Ebbets Field, the man-eating mammoths and the mauling mastodons will be un- leashed in the tremendous persons of Primo Carnera, the terror of the Tiber, and Pat Redmond, the Tipperary troglodyte. This battle may be terrible, good or funny. It will have little to do with any heavyweight championship, or any | other champlonship, which doesn't in. volve displacement and human pound- | age. The British Ryder Cup team and the United States contingent are starting across the Atlantic this week, and the American Davjs Cup team will be on its way to London and the Wimbledon show. | Then there is Miss Maureen Orcutt in a lone battle against the best of the British woman golfers in search of a title no American has ever won. And then later on in the week Twenty Grand and Jamestown will settle the big argument now raging in the turf game. This is about all the action one week can hold, when you consider also the two big league races, which are now veering toward the survival of the few pennant people who actually beyong around the top. Still Better. HE battle that broke loose in the recent British open will be even greater at Inverness. In addition o |t those who took part at Carnoustie there will also be Walter Hagen, Leo Diegel, Bill Mehlhorn, Harry Cooper, George Von Elm, Ed Dudley, Al Espi- nosa, Willie MacFarlane, John Golden, Bobby Cruickshank and 10 or 12 others good enough to maks anybody hustle. The British open has a shade in the way of tradit'on, but the United States open carries the finest golf talent that any golf championship cver knew. It will be especially keen this year, with British and all-American forces com- bined. The Battle at Portmarnock. 1SS MAUREEN ORCOTT of New Jersey, one of the best of all the woman golfers of the United States, is now undertaking the hardest of all sport assignments. ‘This must be so because she is trying something no American woman _golfer ever put across—a victory in the British women's championship. ~ From time 1o time such stars as Marion Hollins, Alexa Stirling, Edith Cummings, Glen- na Collett and many others have tried and failed to break down this British barrier. Miss Collett reached the final frame twice, only o fall back. She went out in 34, against Joyce Wethered at 6% Andrews, to stand 6 up, but final- ly-lost to the brilliant closing charge of the English star. It would not be surprising to see Enid Wilson a big factor in this tournament, as she has the power and the steadi- ness—the punch and the poise—and she needed only this added experience. Miss Orcutt is a fine golfer and a good competitor. But one against a big field is & terrific handicap. The Davis Cup Chance.

On the same fleld where Southern California’s ' great aggregation smoth- ered its opposition with 77 1-7 points last Saturday youthful aces from 120 high schools, representing 21 States, will battle for national honors. The entry list includes teams from Colorado, Georgla, Illinois, Jowa, Kan- sas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Ten- nessee, Texas, Virginia and West Vir- ginia. Because of a ruling against partici- pation in out-of-the-State meets by the Indiana High School Athletic Associa- tion, Froebel High of Gary, Ind., will not return to defend the title it won last year. Fort Collins, Colo., winner of the national titles in 1925, 1926 and 1928, will be back with an- other strong team and a number of in- dividual stars have been entered. Ed Dees of Lorraine, Kans, world interscholastic record-holder in the 12- championship, and Randall Herman of Oak Park High, Chicago, will try to re- peat in the 100-yard dash. Hardin of Greznwood, Miss, who won one of the half-mile sections last year in 1:58.5, also is entered this year. Warren de Marris, a husky youth from Pineville, Oreg., who already has thrown the javelin far enough to place in any college meet, will try for a new Stagg meet record. De Marris, who has thrown the spear 201 feet 5 inches in competition this year, came to Chi- cago with the Oregon Aggie squad. which competed in the N. C. A.

As Star Soph HICAGO, June 8.—Conclusion of the intercollegiate track season finds Southern California Uni- versity again wearing the double laurel wreath of I. C. 4-A and national collegiate champions. To win both events for two consecutive years is a tremendous compliment to the coaching skill of Dean Cromwell and the com- petitive ability of his Trojan phalanx. Southern California won the national collegiate with considerably more ease than the I. C. 4-A,, for the simple rea- son that Leland Stanford had no entries in the Chicago meet. The national collegiates alwi for some undefined reason, are staged at a time when final examinations are being held in many colleges. The Stanford men were obliged to hurry home from Philadelphia for their tests, and Lee Sentman, the brilliant Illinois hurdler, ‘was absent for the same reason. If the national could in some way be sched- uled a week in advance of the I. C. 4-A. it would permit of a field even superior to the one in which 79 colleges partici- pated Saturday. As Southern California swept to vic- tory on Stagg Field most of the track nominated Bill Graber of Southern California and Jack Keller of Ohio State as the outstanding loa - more productions of the season. Sitting as a distinguished spectator, Dink Templeton of Stanford, predicted that Graber would climb to 14 feet 3 inches or better in the pole vault before he finished his college career. In the .

Frequently in these articles I have set down the ideas of star golfers for playing shots from uneven lies. ‘They are quite a problem in that they tend to unbalance one. At that we usually encounter more of them than of level stances in our rounds. Many private links are so construct- ed as to make a level stance an oddity. Johnny Farrell advocates a great deal of ctice from such lies, difficulty in playing his ball correct- ly from a level lie or stance. ‘There is a lot of sense in such a tip. We all know that in any walk STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE Track Products the national and he tied with Tom Wamne of Northwestern and Verne McDermont of Illinois at 13 feet 10 5-16 inches. The boy has fine speed, a tre- mendous lift and such a superb roll that 14 feet should be nothing for him next season. Jack Keller has come fast as & hurdler since the outdoor season opened. He won both the high and low hurdles in the national, but weather conditions made his time slow. How- ever, most coaches believe he will do 14 flat in the high timbers if he con- tinues to improve. Keller needs more wmdlle and strength, but has begun take on weight in a manner that is satisfying to coach, Frank Castle- man. ‘The other outstanding stars of the Spring season were: Frank Wykoff of Southern California in the 100 yard dazh, Eddie Tolan of Michigan in the 220, Bob Hall of Southern California in the weights, Vic Williams of South- ern California in the 440, Ben Eastman of Stanford in the half mile, with Dale Letts of Chicago second in that event; Graber in the le vault and Ken Churchill of California in the Javelin. Tolan won the 220 in both the I. C. 4-A. and national, but there are many who still want to see him defeat Hec Dyer of Stanford in that race. Dyer unfortunately was unable to compete either at Philadelphia of Chicago, so :ohln did not meet his outstanding val. Tolan, Willlams and Dyer have fin- ished their colleglate competition but will be in the Olympic trials, and with Simpson, Wykoff, Toppino, Eastman and a flock of others on hand the United States should have plenty of sprinters to win the speed honors of the world. 29—61, yesterday won the Barristers’ Cup at Beaver Dam.

BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, June 8—Great Britain must be thorough- ly tired of seeing Ameri- cans win its open golf championships. For eight conse- cutive years the British open championship merely has been a corollary of American golf, and only once since 1921 has the titu- lar trophy found a resting place in the British Isles. ‘The British had thought, and logi- cally so, that with Bobby Jones retired and Walter Hagen remaining at home, one of its professionals ht regain the lost championship n:m(.:u-nauaum Henry Cotton, its independent young star, had grown into seeming cham- plonship caliber and Charles Whit- combe, Herbert Jolley and a number of others were capable of fast, fine golf. But the best of British professionals seems to be Jacking some champion- ship element when combating leading American shotmakers. So for another year, Britain must swallow its disap- pointment and take what solace it may in the fact that its new open champion was born and reared in Scotland. Had Tommy Armour fatled on that final round, Great Britain's disappoint- ment would have been even greater. For then the championship would have gone to little Jose Jurado of the Argentine. And who could have foreseen the day when a descendant of the Spanish Dons 9— (would win a British championship among the heather of Scotland? Argentine Near Title. But both Britain and the United States should have a care for this man Jurado. With a little more stamina, a bit nfore luck on the putting greens and the South American would be the champion. What a tale that would be. A tiny man who spent 12 years as s caddy at the San Andre Club of Ar- | gentina climbing to the British open. Certainly Willie Park, who won the it British open in 1860, would have rolled over in his grave. Jurado is not a flash. Once before he led the British open field late in the 'c:ln:.plomlp.‘vo;!‘ley 'fi slip and have e tige alter Hagen rush past him to the title. o Jurado is lacking in champlonship seasoning, according to some of our American professiona Plant him in the United States fo year and he might become a champion. Jose and three of his ccmpatriots will be in the United States open at Toledo a month hence and the galleries there will see a mighty colorful player. The Argentine has produced great polo players and Luis Angel Firpo for the prize ri Now it would seem the pampas breeding golf champions. The outcome of the British open was chilling to the hopes of Great Britain | for winning the Ryder Cup matches from United States at Scioto late this month. Percy Alliss and Henry Cotton, who were two high Britons in the champlonship, will not be members of the British team: Alliss because of a con- nection with a German club and Cotton because of refusal to abide by some rules of the British P. G. A. Davles, who tled for fifth place; Abe Mitchell, Arthur Havers and Fred Robson fared best of the British Ryder Cup pos- sibilities, but Gene Sarazen and Johnny Farrell stood between them and the champion. The Whitcombe brothers and George Duncan were well down the list and at this time it is difficult to foresee anything but an American victory at Scioto. Horton Smith was the greatest dis- appointment among the American play- ers at Carnoustie. The Joplin Pine had begun to hit his stride late in the SPORTS.
