x—14 ] Chicago Golf Star LAIN NOT DEEMED THREAT T0 CHANP Title Holder Is Given Brisk: Fight by 19-Year-0ld King at Outset. BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. LEVELAND, September 10.— Bill Lain of Chicago, &n undertaker in white, today undertook the big job of burying the national amateur golf championship hopes of Lawson Lit- tle, a task that 24 other men in England and America have failed to accomplish during the last two years. One of Chicago's leading amateurs, Lain, a tall blond with a flair for white toggery, challenged the march of the human siege gun from San Francisco in the second round, but his hope of success in his venture was PORTS.

Special Dispatch to The Star. ANNAPOL.IS, September 10.—Work- ing on the two-a-day practice plan, Navy's foot ball squad, under Tom Hamilton and his helpers, has made such good progress that scrim- mages are on the program for the latter part of the week. The players are being prepared for it by increas- ingly stiff contact work every day rather gloomy. Little was believed to have been | ghot down and buried in his first 18- | hole start over the soggy clay turf terrain of the Cleveland Country Club yesterday, dut he proved to be a lively “corpse” that .could rise again and still win. Little Reveals Class. HREE down through five holes against Rufus King, 19-year-old trapshooter from Wichita Falls, Tex., Little conclusively proved his class and became a greater favorite than ever over his field by coming back to crush his youthful opponent, 3 and 1. It was the hardest fight he has had to wage since he started out on this great march—a march that has won the British amateur title twice in su-~- cession and the American amateur once—but he had the fight and the weapons to repel the attack of the “kid,” who dazzled him by scoring four birdies in succession over the first five holes. Little, down only once before in 23 matches and that time only one hole behind, was probably more amazed yesterday than was the black-haired “kid,” who won his first renown five years ago by winning the Grand American Handicap, trapshooling blue ribbon title event. King’s Start Brilliant. UTTING like a wizard and banging dead niblicks against the pin, he halved the first two holes with par and a birdie, and then shot 3—3—2, | three straight birdies, to win as many | holes. It took a 20-foot putt for Little to stop him on the sixth, but he | stopped his “kid” challenger so com- | pletely that he squared the match on | the ninth hole, went ahead with a bold iron shot and a beautiful explo- sion on the 588-yard twelfth and never was headed thereafter, although King tossed away chances to win holes by over-putting the fast drying greens. Little, two under par for the front nine, finished up even with par for| 17 holes, losing strokes on the way back to reckless shots that nestied in traps. But he had to play recklessly in spots. Lain survived by defeating Bayard | Mitchell of Pine Valley, N. J.. 3 tnd | 2, but he was five over par for 16| holes. Yoder Scores Upset. XCEPT for the defeat of Franels ©Ouimet, twice champion, who was eliminated by Levi Yoder, 24-year-old cafeteria worker of Washington, D. C., the big field went through 75 opening matches yesterday, most of them in a driving rain, without a distinct upset. Ouimet was beaten in his first round match for the second successive year, 2 and 1, his usually straight woods getting him into trouble from start to finish and finally beating him efter a fine comeback. Forty-nine players drew first round byes and six others won by defaul's, sending 128 into the second 18-hole round today. HESSICK SQUAD TO DRILL.

LEVELAND, September 10.— The first day's play in the national amateur golf tour- nament was. as it has been S0 many times for me, tinged with something like sorrow. On that day appear so many boys of unknown power and ability and among them there are bound to be some who are having their hour and playing golf of championship caliber. Before these newcomers inevitably fall | some of the great ones of golf. Over the sopping, but beautiful course of the Cleveland Country Club yesterday went down two men whose names always will stand in the annals | of American golf—Chick Evans and | Francis Ouimet. Somehow it seems almost impious that a lad should catch Chick on an off day and beat him 8 and 7. The trick was turned by | Smith Reynolds of Dallas. | Francis Ouimet, to whom American | golf owes a debt it never can hope to pay, lost to young Levi Yoder by s close score. There has never been & | Teams enrolled are Roma Lodge, | Theater, Sunrise Bakery, White Star | Restaurant, Venesky's, Stantons and | Last year's team and new orary whip, won the trophy in 1933 ! and Thomas T. Mott, M. F. H., won | in 1934. | Plans also are being made for a | steeplechase race. Silver trophies are to be offered for both first and second places in the show, while a championship trophy will be awarded to the outstanding horse. Mott is chairman of the General Committee, Mrs. president of the show, Miss Edith Lamar, treasurer; Mrs. William C. | Hanson, chairman of the Trophy Com- mittee, and County Commissioner Robert D. Hagner is head of the Grounds Committee. SLAB STARS OPPOSING Lyon and O'Meara on Mound as G. P. 0. Plays Mount Vernon. Bobby Lyon, G. P. O, and Vernon O'Meara, Mount Vernon, were to be the opposing pitchers today as their teams squared off in the opening | game of the city championship tour- | nament among the title teams of the | eight outstanding week-day leagues. The game was scheduled for the South Ellipse diamond at 4:30 o'clock. Acacia Insurance and Heurich Brewers, rained out yesterday at the end of the third inning with the Brewers leading, 2-1, will face tomor- row, while N. R. A, United States Government League champs, and ! Kann's, Department | winner, will tangle on Thursday. Spirit That Marks Ouimet’s Congratulation of His D. C. mpresses Jones of congratulating his young conqueror on the seventeenth green. Ouimet Generous in Defeat. VEN the greatest cannot be great every day—except in the manrer of accepting defeat. I wish every young golfer in this land could have seen Ouimet’s face as he patted his opponent on the back and with a sin- | cerity that was never to be questioned congratulated him upon the game he had played. How great a competitor is Lawson Little i3 attested by the fact that tne | defending champion did not breek under the early barrage of birdies fired by 19-year-old Rufus King. In Little the United States has a com- petitor few games seldom see. Impress Jones, IT 1S too early for predictions, but a fine field is playing for the coveted title over this splendid golf course. ‘The astonishing thing to us veterans is to see how young they are coming now.

LEVELAND, September 10.— Survivors of a hectic first ( round, which saw five of their compatriots from the Capital City eliminated, three Washington golfers started today in the second round of the national amateur golf championship over the Cleveland | Country Club course. Harry G. Pitt of Manor, who drew | a first-round bye, was to match shots with big Harry Given of Seattle at Roger Peacock, former Mary. had a date with Bob Sweeney, an| American living in England, at 9:30, | and Levi Yoder, the Tall Pine from Linville, N. C., who upset Francis| Ouimet yesterday, was to face the hot | | kid from New York, one Willie Tur- | nesa, at 1:05 this afternoon. Pitt was apt to take a licking at the hands of Given; Peacock was ex- | pected to beat Sweeney, and Yoder was due to absorb a whipping from young Turnesa. The Linville lad will find no soft spot against Turnesa as he had yes- terday against the slipping ex-cham- | pion Ouimet. Without detracting/ anything from Levi’'s win over Francis, | the once-great Bostonian was only a | shadow of the man who won the championship in 1914 and 1931 Francis simply couldn't hit a lick. Five Fall by Wayside. IVE of our brave boys from Wash- ington vanished in the first round | of the tourney yesterday, along with | three former champions. First to fall was Volney Burnett, the golfing fireman from Indian Spring, who was licked by portly | Morton McCarthy, the Middle Atlan- | tic champion from Norfolk, by 3 and 2. Peacock eliminated one Washing- tonian when he licked Hickman Greene from Manor by 3 and 1, and then Craig McKee of Indian Spring absorbed a 7-and-6 trouncing at the hands of young Hal Chase of Des Moines. Maury Nee, playing like a dub, was out in 46 against Julius Hughes of Atlanta and was 3 down, finally suc- | cumbing to the dentist by 5 and 3. Page Hufty put up a good scrap| against Charlie Kocsis of Detroit be- | fore losing by 3 and 2. Yoder pulled through to a 3-and-1/ win over Ouimet. Harry Pitt drew the only bye of the local group and contented himself with | So the second round of the cham- | B | McCarthy pulled away. of the lads who left Washington last week still in the thick of the scrap for the title which Lawson Little very nearly dropped yesterday. Had Law- son been a little less a real champion he might be an ex-champion tod but he came through to win against nine and then weakened enough to let Lawson coast home. Ouimet Far Off Game. HREE ex-champions of the eight who entered are out of the tour- nament. They are Chick Evans, the 44-year-old Chicagoan, who has won | the championship twice and was drop- | ped by young Reynolds Smith by 8 and 7; Ouimet, who was licked by Yoder, and Davidson Herron, who was only a synthetic champion at best. If ever a man was due to be licked | it was Francis Ouimet yesterday. He | played, to quote his own words, “like a fishwife” against Yoder, but you must give the Indian Spring man| match with a pair of 3s at the four- teenth and fifteenth holes. The plain fact is that Francis never had his nose in front in that match and that Yoder was just better on that particular day. Yoder went 2 up by winning the twelfth and thirteenth, but Prancis came back to square on the next two. But then when you would think the veteran would come through under pressure, he wilted and Yoder grabbed a pair of pars on the sixteenth and seven- teenth to win. i “It was all due to that four-leafed clover I found on the sixteenth hole,” Yoder said. But the Indian Spring lad played good golf to win. He up against a tougher job today in keen young Willie Turnesa. Stymie Helps Peacock. URNETT and McCarthy were square at the turn, but after the ninth Peacock was up at the turn in the rain against Greene, and finally won on the seven- teenth after a stymie got him & half on the sixteenth. McKee played bad golf against Chase, shanking iron shots and otherwise playing like a school- boy in his first tournament. So did 2 | Nee, who couldn’t have beaten a fourth flighter with his out-nine of 46. Hufty put up a good scrap against Kocsis, who was out in 36 and was 3 up. POLISHES GRID SQUAD 5 Coach Lawler Starting Advanced Work at Mount St. Mary's. Special Dispatch to The Star, EMMITSBURG, Md., September 10.—As the most successful pre-season foot ball training period in the history of the college nears an end, Joe Lawler, Mount St. Mary’s College coach, today began preparations for polishing off the rough edges of his squad.
