SPORTS. NO JONES, LITTLE 10 FIGHT AGAINST McLeod Is Intlined to Favor Performer Like Kocsis, Munger or Turnesa. BY W. R. McCALLUM. ITH the sectional qualifica- 7 tion rounds t6 be played lo- cally over the layout on which the young man has had some rather unusual rounds him- self, Fred McLeod, the 54-year-old kid of the Columbia Country Club looks for the most open amateur title chase in many a year when the simon pures gather at Garden City two months hence. “It will be the most open champion- ship of any I can recall,” Fred says. Which means plenty, for Fred has been around a long time, man and | boy. “Let’s see” he adds. “Back in 1908 or thereabouts, when I was a either, there were Chandler Egan, soungster and not such a bad golfer | | Fred Herreshoff and Jerry Travers as | the big shots of the game. charge of any championship came along. Then came Bob Gard- ner, and later Chick Evans and Fran- cis Ouimet, just about settling the tournaments between themselves. “Then along came Bobby Jones. ‘They took For quite a stretch of years he had | the tournament sewed up, and shortly after he quit, along came Lawson Lit- tle. Now Little has quit, or rather turned pro, and honestly I can't see any one player or group of players dominating the championship this | year. Yep, it will be wide open, like | a group of 2-year-old non-winners on a race track, with possibly Johnny Goodman the standout.” Not Strong for Goodman. OW about that guy Goodman?” we asked Fred. “He's been pretty good, and he’s been around a long | time, ever since he whipped Bob Jones in the 1929 championship, and he hasn't been able to win yet.” “Johnny is pretty good,” Fred averred. “But somehow or other I can't quite see Johnny winning the championship. He won the open, which 1s a tough tournament to grab, but I don’t know whether he is good enough to wade through eight or nine tough matches in the amateur. Per- sonally, I think some guy like Charlie Kocsis, the Michigan kid who placed first in the open, and won the inter- rollegiate; or Jack Munger, who won | the Southern, or Willie Turnesa, or one of those hot Texas kids can move along fast enough to win. “But it will be a scramble like we haven't seen in many, many years. You see, there won't be any one man whom the boys will be afraid of like Jones of the years between 1923 and 1930 and Lawson Little of 1934 and 1935. “And what a great golf course they will have for the championship. Gar- den City isn’t as well known nowadays as it used to be, but you can bet the boys will find it plenty tough. Think I'll hop up there and have a look at | that championship. & good one.” It ought to be Amity Club Has Date.

Since the subject reached the House of Commons and the home secretary was asked to give it his at- tention, there has been such a storm of rebuttal from the side of the own- ers and trainers that there is slight prospect of any action.

HAVANA (#).—Cracked skulls and broken arms are not unusual among players of jai alai, the Spanish game. Players have to handle a ball half the size of a base ball and almost as hard as a golf ball at terrific speed. A “softer” game was needed for less reckless athletes. So American “soft ball” is being introduced. HARD JOB FOR BRITISH Making Base Ball Box Score Is Testing Sports Scribes.

Woodruff’s winning time was 1:51, Eastman’s 1:52.4. Lash’s dead heat with Zamperini was due primarily to the fact that the Indiana star fell back during the lat- ter stages of the race to coach his teammate, Tom Deckard. This bit of by-play brought Deckard along to qualify in third place, but compelled Lash to make a hard fight to overhaul the 19-year-old Coast run- ner in the stretch. Manning Sets ’Chase Mark. THB joint time of 15:04.2 for Lash and Zamperini was not startling, but there is no reason to alter the conviction that the Hoosier star will be America’s No. 1 man in the 5,000 as well as the 10,000 meter race. Kansas, besides furnishing the twin stars of the 1,500, developed an out- standing Olympic hope in the 3,000- meter steeplechase, an event Finland had monopolized. Harold Manning of Wichita, in asserting his mastery over the veteran Joe McCluskey of the New York A. C., bettered all rec- ords for the obstacle race by finish- ing like a sprinter in 9:08.2. This wiped out McCluskey’s Amer- ican record of 9:14.5 and bettered the Olympic mark of 9:14.6. ‘The field events, outside of the jumps, produced few noteworthy per- formances. The trojan Trio, Bill Graber, Earle Meadows and Bill Sef- ton, all bettered the Olympic pole vault record by clearing 14 feet 3 inches, while the favored Varoff's best was 14 feet. Shot, Discus Efforts Poor. JACK TORRANCE, the Baton Rouge, La., policeman, rallied to top the shot-putters at 51 feet 6% inches, but he will have to do much better to get anywhere at Berlin, The discuss tossers, topped by Slinger Dunn at 157 feet 7!z inches, also were far off their previous form. New Englanders monopolized the hammer throw and Louisiana boys swept all three places in the hop, step and jump. Lee Bartlett, Michi- gan veteran, led the javelin throt ers with a mark of 223 feet 3'¢ inches | and shared with Frank Wykoff the distinction of making the Olympic team for the third time.

LOS ANGELES, July 13.—Defense attorneys for Robert S. James pat- terned a final plea today on the “hu- manitarian” jury appeal used by Clarence Darrow in the Loeb-Leopold case at Chicago more than a decade 2go. “We will try to show that no good would be served, society would not be elevated, by sending James up those 13 steps to the gallows at San Quen- tin Prison,” said Defense Attorney Samuel Silverman. James is accused of drowning his seventh wife, Mary, for insurance money after subjecting her to a rat- tlesnake’s bites. The attorney compared the defense plan with tactics used by Darrow in saving Richard Loeb .and Nathan Leopold from the death penalty in the “thrill slaying” of Bobby Franks. The prosecution’s program today called for a reading of the,confession James later protested was forced out of him. w record-busting | CONFESSES SLAYING | Boston Man Tells Police He Killed Sweetheart.

They were as much mine as hers,” he con- tinueg. “I've got a job here now as auto mechanic for $25 a week and I'm through with the farm.” ‘Whether he is or not may depend | on whether Sheriff Clifford Smith of | Ripley County obtains extradition pa= | pers by July 15. Until then Patton | is to be held in jail in lieu of $1,500 | bail. RENOVIZE. .. your home Terms Up to 5 Years. EBERLY’S W DISTRICT 6557 Dignify_your_ home. Phone_“Eberly’
