EGAN SHOOTS PAR INZ2.H0LE MATCH Young Dunkelberger Comes Up for Third Contest—Lit- tle Continues. BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. LEVELAND, September 11.— Lawson Little, who shot his first game of golf 14 years ago over an abandoned grave yard in China, has “buried” an un- dertaker in his drive toward his sec- ond straight American amateur cham- plonship. With more ease than he shot down a trapshooter in the first challenge, the broad-shouldered Californian ab- sorbed a couple of punches on the chin yesterday and then followed through by burying the upset hopes of the golfing undertaker from Chi- cago, Bill Lain. He smothered Under- taker Bill with a barrage of unerring blasts, leaving him stfranded and de- feated, 6 and 4, one hook west of the fourteenth tee. Today Knox Young, jr., 26-year- old insurance salesman from Pitts- burgh, will try to halt the champion, who hasn't been topped in 25 straight engagements in his victori- ous sweep to three sucessive amateur crowns in England and the United States. Young upset the veteran Max Marston of Philadelphia, former champion, in the first round last year, but his chances of galning fame today were figured as subzero by the gune:ylm. Sixty-three Remaln, IXTY-THREE players still were in the odds-on struggle to dislodge | Little today, but the last man to hold | & decision over the champion was on the sidelines, posibly offering advice. 'WILLED GRID CHAMP, | Deficits Don’t Beptember’s shadows is fatal. But to the next two ball clubs to Invade Griffith Stadium — Cleveland and Chicago —the Griffs' growing toughness might mean trouble. The Indians, who will open a five-game series here tomorrow, currently are waging a bitter fight with the Red Box for th.lrd-place dough. The White Sox, who follow the Tribe here for a four-game set, are | scrapping to land in fourth place and also collect & “cut” on the world series purse, Tribe Battles Nationals. ARRIS, of course, will be a good | deal more interested in how Cecil | ‘Travis continues to conduct himself | in left fleld and how Roberto Estallella | handles himself on third bese, but it would be quite a source of satisfaction | to see his Nationals manhandle the | incoming Indians and White Sox, par- | ticularly the former. All season long the Tribe has been & constant stumbling bock for the ! Griffs, thwarting their every effort to climb. To date the Indians have won | 13 of 17 games from the Washington club in a bid to pile up one of the biggest season advantages held by a rival club over a Griffith A. C. in years, ‘The White Sox have been less success- ful, thanks to a recent three-out-of- Tour victory for the Griffs in a serles, and Jimmy Dykes' Pale Hose holds only a 10-to-8 lead for the campaign. The Nationals' change for the bet- ter started when the club opened its | lengthy home stand at the end of Au- | gust. They've played 11 games since | then, winning 6, losing 4 and tying a | 10-inning tilt with the Browns. Dur- | ing this stretch the opposition—Red | 8ox, Browns and Tigers—have scored | only 42 runs, or less than 4 per game. This is a far cry from what was ¢close to an average of eight runs a | game allowed by Washington pitchers | for the greater part of the campaign. WHILE Harris is not taking the im- ! proved pitching too seriously, inasmuch as everything from now until the end of the season is in favor of the slabbers, neither is he taking all of the curving efforts with only a | dose of sodium chloride. For instance, | Newsom Shuts Out Tigers. Buck Newsom's shutout victory over | B the Tigers yesterday was something that was a great source of satisfaction | . to Harris. Newsom, who has been 1mm~'uv$ng'M steadily of late, now that his knee- | & cap, which was fractured last May, is | nearing normalcy, hurled by far his best game of the year in administer- ing that 6-to-0 lacing to the first- |5 place Bengals, thereby cutting their lead over the Yankees to seven and one-half games. His fast ball is get- ting faster and, more encouraging still, Buck’s control was about perfect. | In the process of turning back the Detroits, Newsom gave up only six | hits—three to Petey Fox—and onlyi two bases on balls. He and his mates | R collected 15 safeties off Schoolboy | Rowe, Vic Sorrell and Bill Sullivan, taking a two-run lead in the second and leisurely adding to it.

McCALLUM, Staff Correspondent of The Star. LEVELAND, September 11.— Shooting for the golf honor nearest his heart—a spot on the 1936 Walker Cup team— Roger Peacock, Indian Spring ace, | met young Eddie Hogan of Portland, Oreg., today in the third round of the national amateur golf championship. With the finest round of golf he has | played in a week behind him in the Sweeny, an American Oxford student, | the 24-year-old Peacock, sole survivor of the eight Capital lads who came |out to battle for Lawson Little's | championship, stepped out on the first tee at 8:30 against Hogan, brimful of confidence in his ability to play the same sort of golf he played yesterday when he demolished Sweeny with an even par game for 14 holes. Harry Pitt, the big Manor moose, and Levi Yoder, black-haired Indian Spring star, are on the way home to- day. They vanished from the char.- plonship in the second round yester- was licked by big Harry Givan of Seattle by 3 and 2, while Yoder fell by 3 and 2 before the lethal chipping and deadly putting of 20-year-old ‘Willie Turnesa, youngest of the Tur- nesa clan of Elmsford, N. Y. Harry played the best game he has played since he came to Cleveland, yet fell before Givan, who was 1 above par 2 | when they shook hands. Yoder was down all the way against Turnesa and had little chance to pick up a hole against the sharpshooting lad from Elmsford. No More Soft Spots. ROGER PEACOCK realizes today that if he gets through the twin 18-hole matches which mark the third day of the championship he wiil have gone a long way toward reach- ing the goal of his dream—a spot on the Walker Cup outfit which meeis the British at Pine Valley next Au- gust. If he licks Hogan he will mect either Eddie Held or Scotty Campbell, neither of whom is a soft touch. There aren’t any soft spots along the road from now on. The chaff has been blown away and the boys are about ready to do their hog Kkilling, with star meeting star. That is ex- cept Lawson Little, a guy who seems never to draw a tough nut until well along in the championship. He drew Knox Young in the third round tc- day and should have no trouble with him, as he had in the first round. Tall, blond Willilam Lain was th: Little victim yesterday, but sagain Lawson had to go to work. He was 2 down at the fifth and won by 6 and 4. That shows how Lain cracked. Morton J. McCarthy, the portly Middle Atlantic champ from Norfolk, still is hanging around in this cham- plonship. He met Jack Munger in the third round today, after licking a tough one in Zell Eaton yesterday | when Zell obliged by ihree-putting the nineteenth green. So is Bobby | day at the hands of better men. Pi | real wish In a golf way is to make | Peacock, Last of Washington _Golfers in National Amateur, Shoots for Walker Cup Bert | Riegel, the Southern champ from | Richmond, who won the medal in the | sectional qualifying rounds at Indian . Spring last month. Bobby whipped another tough nut yesterday in Gene Homans, runner-up in 1930, and ‘met Rupert Friday of Pittsburgh in the third round today. And so is Don McPhail, the Baltimore lad, who has | gone turther in this tourney than ever | before. Friday is a former member of the | second round, whera he licked Robert | Georgetown golf team and hails from | Pittsburgh. Joe | captain, is in the | He whipped Bob Grant of Connect! cut yesterday. Lawson Little’s third-round oppo- | nent today is an insurance salesman. | Lawson used to sell insurance him- | self, but the policies he sells Mr. | Young won't buy. Feature matches today found Wal- ter Emery of Oklahoma against Ross | Somerville of Canada, the 1932 champ; George Voigt vs. Charles Reckner of Philadelphia and Peacock and Hogan. Roger doesn't talk about it, but his Lynch, 1935 Hoya third round today. 1= that Walker Cup team. Not every | man can win the national, but a | flock of lads can make the Walker Cup aggregation. It bears to Ameri- can golf the same hall mark of ex- cellence that admission on an Olympic team bears to track athletics. If Roger gets to the semi-final in this tourney, or better, they can't keep him off that Walker Cup outfit. And if he keeps on nibbling away at par | as he did yesterday hg isn't going to | get licked by any one in this tourna- ment. He was level par for the 14 yesterday, winning five holes ia a row to grab the match. Among other things he bagged an eagle deuce on the 325-yard uphill fourth hole, sink- ing a niblick shot for the eagle. His putting with George Diffenbaugh’s | putter was so good that he didn't leave himself much to do around the cup. All in all, he looked to be a champion. Riegel Far From Set-Up. ANOTHER guy that isn't going to be any soft snap is Bob Riegel. ‘The boys already are ‘beginning to ask who he is. Any guy who beats Geue Homans, they figure_ is good. And Bobby is good enough to go a long wey. His putting on these keen greens wasn't so warm yesterday, but he is too fine a putter to lose his touch for long: Lawson Little is gettiag tempera- mental. The burly champion is a far | different golfer from the keen kid who tried so long to crash through and then won everything. No one must be moving nowadays when Lawson plays a shot. He simply won't hit the ball until all the galleryites have stopped moving. And you can imagine what job the marshals have, for these Cleveland folk want to see Little and they push and crowd around for & peek. The galleries have been good here, too. holes of his match against Sweeney | BUT IS NOT JOYFUL, | Fry, Successor of Waldorf, Sees Kansas State Rivals Better Than Last Season. ANHATTAN, Kans., September 11 (#)—When Lynn Waldorf left Kansas State College last Spring to coach the Northwestern University foot ball team he left a trunkful of lettermen, a Big Six conference cham- | pionship and a full-grown headache for his successor, Wesley Pry. | Fry, who was Waldorf's assistant last year, appreciates the fine foot ! ball machine, but he also appreciates | | what a job is in store for him to keep | it spinning.

Even with three putts at the sev- from the rough, Lawson won eight out of the next ten holes and that although his putter was a bit shaky on the early holes. Worry Little To me, he seems a great deal more capable of beating this course than any one else. The par fives here, which punish the other players, give him opportunities be- cause of his great length. And on the other holes, or most of them, he can disregard the long grass. ‘With his length and power, he can get home most of the time even though he has to blast his second out of the rough. Ross Sommerville looked very good indeed, finishing his match three under par. He was hitting every type of shot confidently.
