SPORTS. OPEN NORTHSOUTH EVENT TOMORROW Dr. Vance, Naticnal Ruler, Among Briiliant Field. Women Prominent. NE national champion, a sec- tional winner and cham- pions from five States were resting their eyes and arms today, preparatory to beginning the North-South two-day skeet shoot, which starts at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the National Capital Skeet Club. Four events are listed for the morrow, while on Sunday the shoot will run all day, culminat- ing in the open individual champion- ship for The Evening Star trophy. Headed by Dr. R. G. Vance of Bos- ton, who last year won the national championship after proving himself the best in Massachusetts, local shoot- ing fans are looking to the brilliant field to provide them with some of the greatest thrills the gun game ever has seen here. Dr. Vance was ac- companied South by his wife, who is no mean shot herself, as she will en- deavor to prove in the woman's and open events. Opening the first day’s program will be the championship for women, which will be followed, in order, by the junior championship, the .410- gauge championship, the sportiest event in the shoot (which requires three times as much accuracy), and the 20-gauge championship. Each event will start one hour after the previous one has gotten under way. Five Woman Champs Entered. N SUNDAY the five-man team championship will be held, fol- lowed by the open individual compe- tition. The shooters will begin at 9 o'clock Sunday morning and continue to engage in their favorite pastime throughout the daylight hours. In the list of the invading cham- pions the sexes are found equally di- vided, each numbering five. Most of them come from the New England States, there being two from Massa- chusetts, New Jersey and Connecticut. Two titleholders hail from Maryland, while one will cross the river from Virginia. The tenth champion, un- classified as to State, is one who has established his supremacy in the Mid- | dle Atlantic section.. In addition to his national cham- pionship Dr. Vance holds the title| in the Bay State, as does his wife, Mrs. Anna Vance, in the woman’s| class. From that same section comes | a father and daughter, J. L. Hanley and Winifred Hanley of Stamford, both champions in their respective classes in Connecticut. Miss Hanley should be no stranger in her sur- roundings tomorrow and Sunday as she was a member of the National Capital Club while a student at Trin- ity College here. Pressing Mrs. Vance for the women’s | title will be Mrs. E. H. Klipstein, who lives in Orange, N. J.,, and is holder of the State title. She gave Mrs. Vance a stiff battle in 1934 and this year's match is expected to be none the less keen. Mrs. Klipstein's husband also is here, entered in the men’s competi- tion. Five Married Couples Shoot. T EE other two champlons from the Eastern States are Frank Traeger of Montelair, N. J., and Charles Toothe of Morristown, N. J., the latter holding the Middle Atlantic title. Coming closer home, we find Virginia | represented by its champion fair| shooter, Miss Abbie Ingalls, who does most of her aiming in the vicinity of Hot Springs. Maryland sends its newly- crowned shooting Kking, Lawrence Williams, who acquired his title just, two weeks ago. And last, but not least, Washington's reputation will be defended by the able Mrs. William C. Coe, who recently crossed the District line to defend successfully her title as woman's cham- pion of Maryland. Her husband, like- ‘wise a member of the local club, also ‘will shoot. An interesting angle to the entire competition, which can be noted from the foregoing entries, is the pre-| pdnderance of “family” connections. No less than five married couples are in the shoot, while two pairs consisting | of a father and daughter, and one father-and-son combination will up- hold the same family name. In addition to Mr. and Mrs. Coe, the Capital will be represented by Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Willlams. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gillet of Baltimore, F\ly Ingalls and his daughter Abbie, from | Hot_Springs, and W. P. Conway md| ‘W. P. Conway, jr., who will come down | from New York, are the others who are united by family tles. | M'LARNIN LOOKS TO ROSS. HONOLULU, July 19 (#).—One week after their wedding day, James A. (Jimmy) McLarnin and his bride | arrived here for 3 Loneymoon. Mc- Larnin announced that he would fight Ross again ncxt November in New York for the welter champion- ship. Roseland, N.

Kelly, WOMAN GOLFERS INPUBLINKS PLAY Betty Keeler Will Defend Title in Tourney Here Next Month, HE dear girls who play their golf on the public courses are going to have their own little links jamboree early next | month at Rock Creek Park, where the women’s municipal links champion- ships have been settled for many years. Twenty-year-old Betty Keeler, the queen of the public linkswomen, will defend the title she won last year, on August 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, and unless a | lot of newcomers with considerable golf | ability have come along since last year | the athletic young Keeler miss is due | to grab the crown again. ‘The main reason for Betty'’s top istAnang among the sod-lifters of the | public links is that most of the women | who have been her main rivals for { the past two or three years have gone and joined private clubs, thereby mak- ing them ineligible to play in the pub- lic links par-fest. Wilda Martin, runner-up to the Keaeler girl last year, is a member of Kenwood; Mrs. Mae Hill, several times champion, now plays at Indian Spring; Ellen Kincald and Mrs. Florence God- frey are members of Beaver Dam, and several other of the stars who used to | play their golf on the pay-as-you-play | courses, have become affiliated with private golf organizations. Betty played in one or two of the | Women’s District Golf Association | tournaments this year, byt she didn’t | do so well. She lacked practice and the knack of playing to the slower and better-trapped greens at the private | courses. But the girl is a pretty good golfer with a lot of confidence and a good assortment of shots. 'D. C. NETMEN SCORE IN MARYLAND PLAY March and Johnsen Take Singles, Also Advance in Doubles. Channing Beaten. Special Dispatch to The Star. { BALTIMORE July 19.—Harry March, Washington schoolboy net- man, smashed out a 6—0, 6—1 victory over Mervin Shpritz, third seeded star, to advance to the fifth round in the Maryland State junior tennis cham- pionships here yesterday, and then teamed with Charlie Channing, an- | other District of Columbia junior en- trant, and swept through the first round in doubles play, defeating Bob Snyder and Averon Waskins, Balti- more, 6—0, 6—0. In the boys' division, David John- sen, Washington, breezed through two matches to gain a place in the fifth round, winning over Dever Hobbs, 6—0, 6—1, and Elliott Goldberg, 6—2, 6—0, both of Baltimore. Johnsen paired with Karl Corby, another Cap- ital City netmar to win their doubles opener over Norwood and Stuart Shcpll;lltl 6—3, 6—2. nning, off his game, dropped a 6—4, 6—2 match to Bob Barbour, Bal- timore, in the junior singles. STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE by W.R.MECALLUM UT at the Columbia Club to- day the two Congressional caddies who beat two Colum- bia bagtoters last week were to play again in a match which has the colored colony all agog. Clyde Martin and Rudolph Hart- shorn of Congressional licked Bobby King and Billy Adams of Columbia last week at Congressional, but the Columhia boys are thirsting for re- venge. ‘They will have their chance aiong about 5 o'clock.

Jimmy is a careful lad who keeps track of what the boys do on the links, and he makes few mistakes, especialiy where his boss is concerned. But when Freddie snuck a mashie-niblick shot up longside the pin on the seventeenth hole yesterday he didn't hole the putt for his 108th birdie in the short space of two years. Instead of Freddie holing, Bully Dettweiler holed a longer putt for a bird which put Freddie and Maury Nee 1 down with 1 to go. But Freddie made up for it by sticking a No. 4 wooden club shot 3 feet from the pin at the eighteenth to hole the putt for a third 3 and halve the match which he and Nee played against Dettweiler and Roland EASTERN WOMEN LEAD IN NET PLAY Three in Semi-Final Round of Singles in Essex County Tourney.

ANCHESTER, Mass., July 19.— Easterners reigned todav in the singles play with one ex- ception as the Essex County Club's invitation tennis tournament for women reached the semi-finals stage.

The Brookline star defeated Gracyn ‘Wheeler of Santa Monica, Calif., 9—7, 6—1, in yesterday’s quarter-finals. Miss Winthrop eliminated Anne Page of Wayne, Pa., 3—6, 6—1, 6—3. ‘The lower semi-finals bracket brought together Mrs. Ethel Burk- hardt Arnold of Pasadena, Calif., and Florence Le Boutillier of New York. Mrs. Arnold yesterday put out Mrs. Mary Greef Harris of Kansas City, 6—3, 4—6, 6—3, and Miss Le Boutillier eliminated Eunice Dean of Houston, Tex., 6—3, 3—6, 6—4. Doubles Choices Advance.

No man playing the game of golf today is more sure with the mashie niblick than Fred McLeod on such holes as the seventeenth at Columbia. It has become almost an axiom that he will get & 3 at the seventeenth, but he missed it yesterday where he needed it, only to make up for it with one of those wondershots, a full wood to the pin at the eighteenth, which enabled his side to halve the match. Roland scored a T4 and the two amateurs— Dettweiler and Nee—were both 79. Oliveri Becomes Muny Junior King ANDY OLIVERI, the stocky, swarthy joungster who cap- tains the Roosevelt High golf team, today holds the junior public links title, but he realizes that he has been in a scrap. Favorite to wia the champion- ship from the moment he won the medal four days age, Andy seraped odt a 1 up victory over Alfred Shorb in the final round at East Potomac Park yesterday. It looked for a tine as if Shorb was going to upset Andy's apple cart. Shorb was O up at the eighth, but there Ol'veri put on a streak of back-to-the-wall golf that brought him home w 35 strokes to win on the eighteenth, after going into a 1-hole lead at the seventeenth.

HREE of Virginia’s four leading horseshoe pitchers and one surprise performer breezed into the semi-finals of the State tournament in The Evening Star championships last night at Falls Church and will finish the title scrap tonight, starting at 7:30 o'clock. C. C. Darr of Ballston, who saw his son Chic, former State champion, eliminated, was surprised to find him- self a semi-finalist after an evening of torrid competition. Feeling at home in the advanced brackets were Raymond L. Frye of Orkney Springs, defending title holder; George C. Thompson of Falls Church, former champion, and Ed Henry of Falls Church, perennial con- tender for the State crown. Frye will meet Darr and Henry will battle Thompson. Chic Can Carry On. ALTHOUGH eliminated from the State event, young Chic Darr &till has a chance to go forward in The Star tournament. As a defeated quarter-finalist he is eligible to com- pete for the fifth place on Virginia’s team in the Metropolitan District play-off, which -is the blue ribbon event of horseshoe pitching in the East. It will be held next week. Also eligible for the consolation berth are Hoot Danzberger, young scuthpaw; Cecil Earman and George C. Thompson, jr, son of the Falls Church veteran. The semi-finalists automatically are qualified for the Metropolitan. “Little George” Thompson, in his early teens and probably the youngest pitcher to have competed in Evening Star tournaments of the last seven years, swiped the show last night. The little fellow put up a man’s battle before bowing to the redoubtable Ed Henry, 50-43, 50-45.

Manor Restricts Woman Golfers ANOR CLUB has taken a brave step in barring women from the golf course on Saturdays, Sun- days and holidays between the hours of 11 am. and 12:30 p.m. as it affects play from the first and tenth tees. “The intention of this rule,” says @ notice by the club, “is to permit the use of the tournament course by ledies and :nixed matches at a time when such use will not in- terfere or conflict with the man players who have starting time on the first tee beginning at 11 am. “The first tee will be open to ladies and mixed matches at such times after 3 p.m. on Sundays and holidays as there are no matches or foursomes of men on the tee ready to start. The intention of this rule is to afford ladies and mixed matches the privilege of playing the tournament course after 3 p.m. without restricting or interfering with the preferential right of the men to the use of the tournament course on such days.” the semi-finals. His victim was Danz- berger, who was a title hopeful. Hoot was able to score only 10 points in the first game, but in the second he turned loose all the head “Deadpan” Frye could handle and rang up 41 points on a pitcher whom many be- lieve to be one of the greatest in the land. Frye's ringer percentage last night was about 65. Charley Darr advanced to the semi- finals with a hard-won victory over Cecil Earman, 36—52, 51—30, 52—43. | Earman had beaten the Rev.
