SPORTS. Griff Revamping Nats’ Coaching Staff : Rippy Again No. 1 Public Linksman L3 Yet to Be Chosen. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. BRAND-NEW coaching set-up, A speed of what promises to be & young and potentially dangerous Washington ball club. yesterday was has directed his last two ball teams, Harris will emerge personally to direct the traffic at first base next season coach. A mnew third-base coach to succeed Johnny Kerr is expected to be named by the end of this month. was notified of his release a few days £go by President Clark Griffith. His successor, it was admitted by the Na- f { Successor at Third Base Post to Kerr, Released, smacking of a determined at- tempt to capitalize on the discloseti by Manager Bucky Harris. Prom out of the dugout, Where he in a move meaning the virtual retire- ment of Nick Altrock as an active Kerr, who succeeded Al Schacht when Al joined Joe Cronin in Boston, tiorals' bosses, probably will be aa ex-Washington player. Changes Not Surprising. 'HE revision of the coaching line- up came as no great surprise to those in fairly close touch with the ‘Washington club. Altrock, who | achieved the mellowing milestone of 59 years during the last season, is not s0 spry as formerly and for some time Griffith has considered relieving him of part of his duties. | When Harrls took over the reins of the Nationals last October it was thought he would share the coaching duty, but Bucky believed at that time he could get best results by directing from the dugout. He now is convinced | the former and more active system, | which he employed while piloting the | Detroit Tigers, is more effective. Bucky directed the Red Sox from the bench in 1934, marking the first time he did no coaching. Altrock’s retirement does not mean | that he will leave the team. “As long ! as I'm president of a ball club,” quoth Griff, “Nick always will have a job.” Altrock and Griffith have been to- | gether ever since the Nationals’ prexy took charge of Washington teams in 1912. The picturesque old Nick will devote his future efforts chiefly to tutoring young pitchers, staging his one-man clown acts and conducting infield practice. | Kerr’s Successor Uncertain. ! KERR‘S replacement also came as no big surprise. Up until last sea- son Johnny shared first-base coaching with Altrock and when Schacht de- parted the little ex-infielder attempted to fill Al's shoes, but found it a diffi- cult task. Johnny began his diamond career as a second baseman and shortstop in the Pacific Coast League, broke into the big leagues with the White Sox and was traded to Washington along with Carl Reynolds for Bump Hadley and Sam Jones. That was in 1931. He remained on the active list until last season, when he was listed strictly as a coach. Just who will replace Kerr as third base coach neither Harris nor Griffith is prepared to say at present, but the successor, it was stated by Griff, will be picked from the following: Clyde Milan, Joe Judge, Earl McNeely and Frank O'Rourke. Last season Milan finished as manager of Chattanooga, Judge conducted a local restaurant and McNeely functioned on the Coast as president and manager of the Sac- ramento Club. Marks Revision Start. THE shift in the coaching staff marks the first step of Harris and Griffith toward renovating the Nationals and it promises much. Himself a heady if not a speedy base runner, Bucky is well qualified for the job at first base, though at De- troit he functioned chiefly at third. All candidates for Kerr's job earned reputations as smart base ball men. | Milan and McNeely were particularly good base runners. If they can in- still the same sense of timing and | Jjudgment into such speedsters as Jake Powell and Dee Miles, two of the American League's fleetest, the Na- tionals may bear close watching on the paths next season.

October 19.—The sturdy, knickered figure of Gene Sarazen, the Connecticut farmer, | faded out of the P. G. A. national | tournament picture today before the steady play of Alvin (Butch) Krue-| ger of Beloit, Wis. Krueger eliminated | the tournament favorite 2 and 1 in| a thrilling 18-hole, second-round match. And as Sarazen joined Walter Ha- | gen in the discard, Paul Runyan, de- fending champion, sailed serenely on- ward with a 3 and 2 victory over|— burly Mortie Dutra of Royal Oak, Mich. Runyan progressed in select com- pany which included Tony Manero of Greensboro, N. C., who will be Run- yan's oppenent in a 36-hole third- round match tomorrow; Johnny Re- volta, the raven-haired Milwaukeean, who yesterday eliminated the medalist, Hagen; Al Watrous of Birmingham, Mich.; Jimmy Thompson, the long- distance man from Ridgewood, N. J., and the dapper Denny Shute of Chi- cago, former British open champion. Saragen Crumbles. THE stunning defeat of Sarazen| overshadowed other events of 8 balmy Autumn day at Twin Hills. | The sturdy, confident Sarazen set a sizzling pace frem the start, only to have Krueger match him virtually stroke for stroke, and when the break came it was Sarazen who crumbled. | Square through the thirteenth hole, | Sarazen stroked fives on the next two holes to go 2 down. They halved the sixteenth and, with opportunity | knocking loudly on the seventeenth, Krueger answered. Sarazen's approach putt stopped 2 inches from the cup and laid Krueger's ball, 6 inches back, a pertect stymie. The gangling, grinning Beloit player calmly took his niblick and lifted his ball over Sarazen’s into the cup for al It was Krueger's first P. G. A.| tournament. He rose to fleeting fame | m: in the national open at Oakmont Lhis' year by carding a 71 the first day. Runyan Fondles Par. | RUNYAN took par as his model in| defeating Dutra. The trim little | champion, brown felt hat cocked | jauntly on the side of his head, was out in 35. Although he was two over par coming in it was too much for Dutra, whose card included three 5s, Revolta was given a great battle by Jimmy Hines before a short approach | ¥ on the eighteenth cost Hines the match. Sam Parks also ran up against a| homa City carried the open champion to the eighteenth green before bowing, | 1 up. Both players were wild on the last nine, with Scheider one stroke wilder. Thompson blasted J. B. Collins of Mansfield, Ohio, out of the picture in short order. virtue of a par 35 to Collins’ 41, Thompson went on to win, 6 and 4. Denny Shute uncorked a blazing 32 on the first nine in turning in a 4 and 3 victory over Henry Bontempo of Springfleld, Mass. Bontémpo him- self played a steady game, with a 36 going out and three 3s coming in. LAUREL ENTRIES FOR_MONDAY. FIRST RACE. Purse, 3500 claiming; 2- ygar-old maidens: 6 fuflongs. ul o Shboime.

OR the second straight year Claude Rippy, the ezlongated North Carolina lad, is the ranking public links golfer around Washington. Rated first last year, even though he didn't win the District municipal championship, Rippy came into his own this year, winning the District title and the captaincy of the local team in the national tourney, and generally playing far and away the best golf any public linksman has shown since the days of George Voigt. Among other little matters Rippy, now employed by a local sports goods store, shot himself a 67 at Rock Creek Park, played the final 36 holes in the municipal championship in 139 strokes and set an all-time record for the tourney with a 72-hole card of 282, composed of a 75, a 68, a 69 and & 70, sgoring good enough to win almost any golf tournament anywhere. Rippy | is tops on the public links, a player | who might do well in a golf affray against any company. He qualified handily at the national at Indianap- olis, and went to the fourth round of the tourney won by little Frankie Strafaci of Brooklyn, Bespectacled Bobby Burton, a Navy Yard mechanic, played in only one | big public links affair this year, but | nicipal championship and on the strength of that showing and his good all-arouna play, rates the second po- sition. Here is the way the boys are rated on their tournament showings: No. 1—Claude Rippy; No. 2—Bobby | Burton; No. 3—George Malloy; No. 4 | —Herman Allen; No. 5—Ted Burrows; | No. 6—Andrew Oliveri: No. 7—Buddy Sharkey; No. 8—Charlie Ficco. Malloy Not Very Active. Rm HEADED George Malloy, who won the local title a few years back, placed third in the championship and qualified for the national. But George, who works as a beer-barrel slinger in a local brewery, didn't play |in many of the golf events this year. | | He probably would have gone higher’ had ne done so, for the redhead has plenty of golf shots and a full quota |of that indeterminable quality known as golfing guts.

OUISVILLE, Ky., October 19.— Showing a return to his sensa- tional form of the Arlington Futurity, the Bomar Stable’s Grand Slam gave a smashing per- formance today to win the fifteenth renewal of the Kentucky Jockey Club’s stakes before a crowd of 12,000 at Churchill Downs. ‘The victory of the son of Chance Play-Jeane Bowdre threw the race for the 2-year-old championship into something of a scramble and gained for him a notch among the favorites His triumph also atoned for his poor showing in the Belmont Fu turity, as he led Hal Price Headley's Holyrood, C. V. Whitney’s Red Rain and Coldstream Stud’s Cold- stream, which defeated him in that in sloppy going in 1:39 3-5 with his rider looking back. ‘Ten crack juveniles contested the issue for the $11,585 gross prize, No- ble Star alone being After a few minutes’ delay as the field was off to a good start, with Coldstream showing the lead out of the chute, Grand Slam was close up and steadily improved his position to the far turn. There he came around the field, entering the stretch as Coldstream faltered, and lterally romped to & two-and-one-half-length victory over Holyrood. The Ilatter, never far back, but on the outside most of the way, moved up with a rush a sixteenth out, but could not seriously menace the winner.

Seagram, smashed down in front in record shattering time today in the Massachusetts Handicap, $5,000 added feature of the final program at Suffolk Downs, before a crowd of 30,000. ‘The Seagram colt turned the drying out strip in 1:37.1, three-fifths of a second better than the mark set by Ebony Lady on the opening day of the. current meeting. The stout-hearted horse received a sterling ride by George Woolf. Stand Pat took command a furlong out and scored with a half a length on Afaccio at the finish to pay $6.60 in the mutuels.

Big Ted, at his | best, would be a match for Rippy, but he has played very little golf and no | longer has the competitive urge. Down there in the sixth spot is a | kid who should be up at the top. Andy | Oliveri, winner of a tournament at | Rock Creek Park in September, has what probably is the best golf swing | on the public courses, and in *many | ways the best all-around game. But Andy, who captained the Roosevelt High School golf team last Spring, is known as a bad finisher.

Buddy Sharkey, the 16-year-old Gonzaga High School kid, has the making of a fine golier. championship, a score good enough to get him well along, but Buddy also needs experience.

Charlie Ficco, printer-golfer, shot a 77 at Beaver Dam a few weeks ago, which happens to be a score equal to about a 70 at Rock CTreek Park. Charlie hasn't had much time to play competitive golf between setting rub- ber type and other things, but the word is that he would be a rough customer for the boys if he played in tourna- ments. Several others, among them Bob Marks, Dave Bent are good golf- ers, but not good enough to crash through and beat the top eight.

Sloane Horse Beats Sation| in Scarsdale Handicap by Eight Lengths. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, October 19.—Psy- chic Bid, a whirlwind colt from the stable of Mrs. Dodge | Sloane, scored an eight-lengths victory over the highly rated Sation | today and broke the Empire City Track | record in the bargain. Sation, America’s sprint champion, carried 128 pounds over the mile and 10 yards of the $5,000 added Scarsdale | Handicap and lumbered home in sec- | ond place, two lengths clear of Mrs. S. B. Mason's Mid Victorian. Sation was & thoroughly tired and beaten horse as he drove across the finish line. W. N. Adrians’ Round Table completed the small field. Psychic Bid's time was 1:42 flat, | clipping two-fifths of a second off lhe mark hung up by Polydor. 15,000 Watch Race. A CROWD estimated at 15,000 jammed the Yonkers plant under | warm skies. It was believed to be the largest crowd in the history of the Hilltop course. Sation was installed a 3-to-5 favor- ite, while Psychic Bid, recent winner of the Laurel stakes, receded to 13 to 5. Sation entered today's race with & record of four straight victories in sprint stakes under crushing impasts. Mrs. Sloane, recently returned from | Europe, was present to see her 3- | year-old colt add $4,470 te the Brook- meade coffers. Psychic Bid ran in a | manner that indicated he might have beaten Sation under any circum- stances. Little Mike Corona rushed the son of Chance Play to the front after a brief brush with Round Table, a 12-to-1 shot, then pounded along to widen the breach as the race pro- gressed. Midway on the far side, Jimmy Hunter brought Sation up into second | place, but the horse tired. As Psychic was catching Sation in the final drive. Weston, Esposa and Spanish Way had been scratched.

Fidells broke on top and at the half mile was three lengths to the good with Good Harvest nearest be- hind. Round'ag the far turn, Fidelis began a forward move which carried him by Good Harvest as they en- tered the stretch.
