A3 Fight Coin Ready to Flow to Baer : Bradley’s Best Not Named for Derby Jones Says Gene’s Confidence - | Reinhart Sticks Is Amazing, Golf Masterful HAS FIVE OFFERS T0 DEFEND TILE Braddock Tops List—Brit-| ain Presents 3 Chances to Meet Schmeling. L2 ANOR CLUB golfers are to be placed on a club ranking list this year, with their places on the list to be determined by challenge matches’ following a qualificaticn round. The idea of Jim Cosgrove’s Golf Committee, the lad- der scheme, is not new, but has a modern angle in it that it will set up & ‘nnklng list of the best 45 players in the club, the men from whom club teams will be chosen this year. Immediately after Manor's invita- By the Associated Press. EW YORK, April 9.—If even half the offers he has received for a title defense in recent weeks are bonafide, the de- pression is over for Max Baer. ‘I'he'hnvywelght champion and his partner, Ancil Hoffman, jointly are exercising their brains over a bewilder- ing variety of propositions, all of them promising rich returns. The list reads something like this: 1. A title fight under the auspices of Madison Square Garden in June, prob- ably against Jimmy Braddock. This one is definite, for Baer is bound by | contract for one title defense under | the Garden's rromotion. | 2. A title fight here in September for Mike Jacobs’ Twentieth Century Club with either Joe Louis, Detroit Negro, or Primo Carnera in the other corner, depending upon which of the | two wins their June match. | 3. A title fight in London, Rome or Vienna against Max Schmeling with Walter Rothenberg doing the pro- moting. Rothenberg mentions a guar- antee of $300,000 for the champion. 4. A title fight in London against Schmeling for a British syndicate rep- resented by Armand Vincent, Canadian hockey promoter. (Guarantee $250,- 000 whispered.) 5. A title fight in England against | Schmeling for a Blackpool syndicate. (Guarantee, reported, $290,000.) Could Accept Three. | ONCEIVABLY Baer, who needs | C the money, could accept three | of these offers by fulfilling his ocontract with the Garden, then going to Europe to fight Schmeling in Au- gust and returning to this country in time to meet either Louis or Carnera. Whether he will accept any but the Garden’s bout, of course, is just what every one would like to know. Although Jimmy Johnston declines to commit himself, it now appears the Garden will announce Braddock as Baer’s foe for the June match here. There have been persistent re- ports for some days that Schmeling not only would decline to fight in this country again but would break off relations with his American manager, Joe Jacobs. That has been denied, vigorously, by Jacobs, but neverthe- less there have been no indications that Schmeling had any intention of coming here in the immediate future. Originally the Garden planned to throw Schmeling in against the champion in June, taking the match outside New York State if necessary. With Schmeling now a doubtful starter, Braddock, the No. 1 chal- lenger in the eyes of the New York State Athletic Commission, is the only rival léft. Of the European offers, Baer has evinced most interest in Rothenberg’s proposition. 0 ALBERT TO LEAD G. W. Replaces Grifith, Who Takes Up Job at Chattanooga. William (Whitey) Albert, outfielder, is the newly chosen captain of the George Washington base ball team. He has been named to replace Calvin Griffith, who has gone to Chattanooga to become an official of that Southern Association club. Albert, a veteran on the Colonial team, is a hard hitter. G. W., which yesterday for the third time was prevented by adverse weather from opening its season, when its game with Washington College was abandoned, now plans to start Mon- day against Delaware University on the latter's diamond. The Colonials’ game with Long Is- land University, postponec last week, has been rescheduled for April 17 in Washington. Washington College also 1s expected to be carded for another date. Unless drills bring about changes, George Washington will line-up as follows: Burton Webb, left; Jack ‘Williams, second; Lefty Johnson, first; Tim Stapleton, short; Albert, center; Arthur Dale, third; Tuffy Leemans, right; Clarence Berg, catcher, and the pitcher. MOUNT RAINIER IN LEAD Plays Bakers in Second Game of Basket Series Tomorrow. ‘With the Mount Rainier Grays one- up in the three-game series for the Prince Georges (Md.)

Three ladders of 15 men each will be pro- vided, the first for the top 15 to be for players with handicaps from scratch to 7, the second for players from 8 to 14, and the third for golfers from 15 up. But the big catch in it 15 this: Like Woodmont's Plan. To keep his spot on the ladder any player must keep up his golf game. If he slips, his spot may be taken by some gent lower on the ladder than he, for the top fellows are subject to challenge from those lower ‘down and the ladder lists will be the hall- mark of links superiority in the club. Any person on a rung below which he thinks he belongs may challenge any one of the three above him to & match which must be accepted, pro- viding the challenge may not be made oftener than once in two weeks after the previous challenge and defeat. The challenger, if victorious, will move up to the position occupied by the defeated man on the ladder.

By the Associated Press. ERLIN, April 9—Max Machon, trainer for Max Schmeling, today denied all rumors of & rift between the former heavyweight boxing champion and his manager, Joe Jacobs. . “Max told Jacobs in & cable last night Joe is and will be his American manager, after Jacobs informed him about the current rumors,” Machon said, speaking in the absence of Schmeling on a hunting trip. The trainer confirmed the an- nouncement that the German pugi- list again will fight Paul Uzcudun on July 7. “Max merely insists on a fight against Max Baer on neutral ground, but it is nonsense to say he has de- |clined to go to America at all,” | Machon added. Sising Up Situation. ROM the Hamburg promoter, Wal- ter Rothenburg, it was learned repeated reports about his in- ability to arrange for a heavyweight championship bout to be staged in England were untrue. “I talked with the managers of the Wembley and White City stadiums,” Rothenburg said, “but did not arrange anything because my representative investigated possibilities in Rome at the same time.” Rothenburg, who has been in con- tact with Ancil Hoffman, Baer's man- ager, said Charles Harvey is bringing his contract with Schmeling for a Baer bout to the United States and will act as his representative in nego- tiations across the water for definite arrangements for & heavyweight | championship match.

The Jewish boy was a heavy fa-| vorite to retain the junior bonnet, but many supporters of the 20-year- old Negro slugger insisted it would be no cinch. They even predicted that if Woods ever lands his terrific right it may instantly carry him to the title. Promoter Nate Druxman predicted & sell-out of the 9,000 seats. Both battlers completed their training chores with light workouts yesterday and were in perfect condi- tion for the engagement. They were not expected to scale more than a pound or two difference, with Woods | having the edge. i It is the first 12-round bout for the Negro, but he has fought many 10- rounders end usually has finished strong.

Bets, Msr. 612 13th St. N.W, BY BOBBY JONES, Only golfer * who ever won the American open and amateur and the British open and amateur in the same year. UGUSTA, Ga., April 9.—Gene Sarazen played just about as fine golf in the masters’ tour- nament as I have ever seen, considering all conditions. But the feature of his play to me was the amezing confidence he had on every type of shot, but especially on putts of 3, 4 and 5 feet. These are the types of putts that broke more than one | golfers heart in this tournament. Yet Gene calmly stepped up, took one quick look and then tapped the ball as if he never expected to miss. I don't believe he missed more than one or two such putts in five days. Of course, the shot that killed Craig RAIN PROVES ALLY FOR CRUICKSHANK Him Chance to Make Team to Play Japanese. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. T'S & cast-iron cinch that after all the hullabaloo that has been raised among the Middle Atlantic pros over the inclusion eof the best golfer in this section—one Robert Cruickshank, late of Grant-On-Spey, Scotland—on the P. G. A. team, that this same Cruickshank will be one of the lads to face the Japanese on June 1 and 2 at the Kentwood Golf and Country Club. Robert of Richmond, of the High- land burr, and the great golf swing, would have been left off the team had the boys gone through with their announced intention to start qualify- ing for the team yesterday. But they will have a time keeping him off the team under the new set-up as of to- day, for, balked by rain in their at- tempt to qualify & team of six yes- terday over the soggy Woodholme course, the lads decided to chuck all their foolishness and play a 36-hole medal round at Kenwood to pick the six men to meet the Nipponese. The date hasn't been set and it won't be set for several days, but their decision is a much more sensible one than the original idea, which was to the longest courses in this sector— Woodholme and Beaver Dam. Delay Solves Problem. LL the while rotound Robert from open king, couldn't have taken part in the qualifying at all, for he from Augusta. But the rain took care of that and now Bobby, if he thinks the occasion worthwhile, will be at Kenwood when the qualifying tests come off. By setting the whole affair for one day at a time when “Cruicky” can Pplay, the pros have killed off all criti- cism and at the same time hate vir- tually assured themselves of choosing the best team they can fling into the fleld against the Japanese. For if Cruickshank and Al Houghton, the two leading golfers in this territory, route at Kenwood, they wouldn't de- serve to be on a playground marble team. Meanwhile over at Woodholme next Monday the boys will play a sweep- stakes affair along with an amateur- pro contest, but it won't have anything to do with the business of qualifying on the P. G. A. team. At Kenwood, by the way, they finally have made that tough first hole a par 5 affair, as it should have been years 2go, but the par of the course remains at 71 just the same. They have made the fifth hole a par 4 hole to make up for the 5 a§ the first hole, and the second hole remains a par 5, even though it is an easier hole than the first. At the same time the boys did nothing at all about the Middle At- lantic P. G. A. championship, nor the dates for the national P. G. A. qual- ification rounds. But the first mat- ter is all cut and dried. The tourney will go to the Manor Club, home club of President Treder, while the na- tional championship is not slated until October and the qualifying rounds do not have to come off until September. Most of the lads van- ished from the scene at Woodholme early in the day, making for Bowie, while a few of them stayed around and played penny ante while they dis- cussed informally the application of Roland MacKenzie for membership, a little matter that is causing no end of headaches. They all admit he should be in the P. G. A, but they all want some one to find a way to circumvent the screwy three-year rule, Meanwhile Roland is doing exactly nothing about it, just sitting and waiting. There is one lad who should be eligible to play on that American- Japanese team. TRICO VACUUM WIPERS Sales—Repairs MILLER-DUDLEYA mé .NW.

He covered the pin on aimost every type of shot and he kept his perfect putting stroke working all the way through.

As a result, the son of Black Toney will be given more time to get into condition this year. His first big race probably will be in the Belmont stakes. L [ Boxthorn Is Promising. | T IS never safe to count Bradley out of the Derby, however, and in Boxthorn he has a colt that ran some good races as a 2-year-old. He was first in two of his eight starts and finished in the money in two others to earn a total of $7,950. “We have a chance” says Dick Thompson, Bradley trainer. “Our two | eligibles are training well, but I don't | know any more about them than I did last Fall. It has rained so much we haven’t had a good chance yet to see what they can do.” Both Bradley eligibles will be shipped to Churchill Downs three or four days before the opening of the meeting, April 27.
