S PORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1936. SPORTS. 1055 OF DGNTY | How New Washington Golf Club May Look [EET PROPOSED IS EASED BY CASH ‘Then, Too, Net Ace Plans to Live in U. S.—May Find Tartar in Vines. BY JOHN LARDNER. R. FREDERICK JOHN PER- RY has turned professional, under the personal manage- ment of one of our better saloons, and the place and time of his first cash match with H. Ellsworth Vines, till now the greatest of the pro tennis players, will be Madison Square Garden, in New York, January 6. I call the gentleman “Mr.” Perry advisedly, because in America the pro- fessional athlete is permitted to retain this refined and genteel prefix before his name. In England, where pros use the tradesmen’s entrance, Freddie is “Mr.” Perry no longer. In fact, he is a very unpopular bloke in England, to say nothing of a cad and a bounder, for his decision to turn pro has almost automatically cost the English the Davis Cup. The lads in Piccadilly are speaking of Freddie with cold sneers right now, when they speak of him at all. But Mr. Perry Doesn’t Mind. UT I don't think Mr. Perry minds, because he plans to spend most of the rest of his life in this country. ‘With his new-found wealth—including & $50,000 guarantee—he will build a house in California for himself and wife, the handsome movie lass, Helen Vinson. Life is eggs in the coffee for | Freddie today. As reported by this department at the time, Mr. Perry signed the fatal papers more than a month ago, just after winning the American national singles title. He stalled and ducked and weaved and jabbed at the issue for many weeks, giving nobody a posi- tive answer, but the thing was in the sack all the time, and I am glad we have finally laid the ghost of Freddie's simon-purity to rest. ‘Technically, the young man's new managers are Frank Hunter and S Howard Voshell, a pair of retired big- leaguers who were better than fair at the game of tennis in their day and age. Actually, Frederick is man- aged by a syndicate of “well-known sportsmen,” of whom the best known sportsman is Mr. Jack M. M. Krind- ler, who, in turn, is nothing more or less than the polished host of New York's most famous saloon—No. 21 I don't know what 21's colors are, but Mr. Perry is carrying 'em from here on. Match to Start Series. 'HE match with Vines on January b 6 is merely the first of a series that will keep the two best tennis players in the world scampering around different parts of the coun- try until May 15. Besides his cash guarantee of $50,000, Mr. Perry will cut in for a percentage of the gate. He expects to have a total of a hun- | dred grand in his well-cut Bond street Jeans before this here new proposi- tion is put in mothballs. What's more, Mr. Perry is the au- thor of a shy and graceful state- ment in which he says that the new mob, including himself, will be the salvation of professional tennis. “‘After considering a number of attractive offers,” says Frederick, “} am electing to accept the terms of the | contract offered by Voshell and| Hunter, feeling that the conduct of this enterprise, which is backed by a group of well-known sportsmen, will | do much to raise the level of pro-| fessional competitive tennis in the | eyes of the public and place it on the sound basis which it deserves in the future.” A Left-handed Crack? THIS has some of the earmarks of '™ a left-handed crack at previous pro tennis enterprises — enterprises which cleared the way and made the ground safe and cozy for Fred and his managers. Without the pioneer- ing of Mr. Cold Cash Pyle, Mr. Wil- liam Tilden, 2d, and Mr. Bill 'Brien, the Perry venture would amount to nothing, because, for one thing, there would be no Ellsworth Vines waiting to meet Freddie in the pro field, and without Vines the Perry venture would die of malnutrition. Perry will float some fresh cash into professional tennis, however, which is all to the good. He will deal another stout blow at the amateur forces, which is fine. The sooner the simon- pures recognize the existence of the pros and get together with them on a sound open tournament basis the bet- ter for tennis everywhere. As matters stand, Mr. William Til- den, 2d, is expected to lend his talents and experience to the new organiza- tion on a straight salary arrangement. Soomer or later, Mr. Perry will have to meet Mr. Tilden and the other old- school pros in combat. He can't go on playing Vines for the rest of his life. Should Be Hot Tilts. BUT for a while, anyway, those Perry-Vines matches should be the best any of us has seen in a tennis way for many years. There's no doubt that the two gentlemen in question are the best in the world today. Every pro concedes Vines' ranking, and Mr. Perry has established himself solidly as the boss amateur. Ellsworth and Fred- die met a few times in the days of their simon-purity, without definitely determining the issue of supremacy. I've been convinced right along that the California slugger is Perry’s mas- ter, in spite of the result of their last and most sensatiomal duel, in Paris, when Vines collapsed and defaulted with Perry holding the lead at match ‘point. Perry has improved since then, but Vines has come even farther. One way or another, I'll slip a small bet down on the native son to win that first match. They'll play many matches after that, and neither party can expect to win ‘em all, but the opener is the one in which Vines and Perry ought to be giving the most of their best, as a sort of keynote demonstration. That's the one I'm betting Vines to win. It's not patriotism, mind you, because both the boys are Californians now. It's just a hunch.

B. A. OFFICIALS Maj. Brown Would Punish Balti- more Fighter for Failure to Meet Furr Here. THE indefinite suspension of Jack Portney, Baltimore welterweight, who refused to fulfill a contract to fight Phil Furr here in September, was requested by Maj. Ernest W. Brown, chairman of the District Box~ ing Commission, in a letter today to Edward C. Foster, executive secretary of the National Boxing Association. Portney, who defeated Furr in & 12-round bout in Baltimore last Sum- mer, claimed he was unable to go through with the hout due to an in- jured hand, but examinations and X-rays by Dr. Don 8. Knowlton and Dr. Thomas P. Foley, the latter a bone specialist, failed to reveal the injury. Portney then produced a letter from Dr. G. E. Bennett indi- cating that no bones were broken, but that his hands were sore. The local commisison informed Portney that he would be forced to fulfill his contract with Promoters Joe Turner and Goldie Ahearn before engaging in other contests, but Port- ney apparently ignored the ruling, since he has boxed in New York and Baltimore since that time without obtaining a release from Turner or Ahearn, The suspension, if inflicted, would be imposed in the 39 States gov- erned by the National Boxing Asso- ciation and numerous affiliated bodies. —_— T TTaleC Dodles.

CENTRAL defeated Tech, 7-0, in their annual game of the in- terhigh school foot ball series and has only one opponent, Eastern, between it and the 1916 title. Al- though Central was outweighed by Tech, it was a better-drilled team, Coach Metzler putting a team on the field which appeared in excel- lent physical condition without the usual nonchalance of the veterans in its line-up. Gottlieb scored the only touchdown behind perfect in- terference by Quarterback Guy. G. W. FROSH ELEVEN TO SHOW ITS WARES Strong Yearling Outfit to Play Temple Team Friday Night at Gri Stadium. CASUAL fans and George Wash- ington followers who might want a peep of the material that next year will reinforce Jim Pixlee’s varsity will get the opportunity Friday night in Grifith Stadium when the Colonial Freshman play the Temple Frosh at 8 o'clock. Admission will be 40 cents. Conquerors of Western Maryland’s Freshmen by 59-0 last Saturday, the G. W. yearlings appear to be the strongest first-year team the Buff has had since 1929. Next year’s farsity squad is certain to include a goodly number of this group, who are coached by Jean Sexton. Outstanding in the freshman array is Billy Richardson, hard-running halfback, who led Central High to the city scholastic championship last year. Richardson runs, kicks and passes in & manner indicating he will prove of much value to the 1937 var- sity.

FIGHT Brundage Plea It Be Buried Came Too Late, Official in Texas, Avers. By the Associated Press, OUSTON, Tex., November 11. —=Speculation on possible ac- tion by the troubled A. A. U. at its convention here next month increased today as the host Gulf Association announced plans for the meeting and President Avery Brundage of Chicago asked that the hatchet be buried. ‘The Gulf Association organized | committees to arrange a round of entertainment, including a huge sports parade depicting American ::glencs from table tennis to foot Commenting on Brundage's state- ment that “the hatchet must be buried for the best interest of Ameri- can sport and a united front estab- lished to gain the real objective of the | organization,” Jack Rafferty, presi- dent of the Gulf Association, said: “Mr. Brundage took that attitude too late. Questions asked about the A. A. U. must be answered.” Jarrett Case May Stir. RAP’FERTY, former first vice presi- dent of the union, and Judge Jeremiah T.

He has averaged more than 100 yards from scrimmage in Catawba's seven games. Pritchard is most effective in returning kicks, but helps with the passing and punting. IN SPITE of a bruising scrimmage with the freshmen yesterday, Coach Bergman promised the Cardinals no let-up for today as they went about preparing for the homecoming at Brooklyn with North Carolina State. Bergman was a trifle disgusted with the tackling and blocking of the Red- birds against West Virginia Wesleyan and the same poor regard for funda- mentals has marked their workouts with the freshmen. Heretofore C. U. teams have been highly efficient in this respect. The scrimmages today and tomor- row may result in & shaking up of the Cards’ first team. Irish Carroll, halfback, who was C. U’s outstanding star last year in an 8-to-0 victory over North Carolina State, developed a charleyhorse yes- terday which may keep him out of Saturday’s game. Bud Munhall stands ready to take his place. ‘The first of the returning C. U. grads appeared at Brookland yesterday. The homecoming festivities will start Pri- day evening. Among those who turned up early were Carl De Mello, Ston: ham, Mass.; Bill McGrath, Water- bury, Conn.; John McGarry, Edge- water, N. J.; Bingo Flynn, Worcester, Mass.; Dr. Harry Stark, Bayonne, N. J., and Leon Stack, Waterbury, Conn. Many more are expected today. The Homecoming Committee had planned for about 300, but today was reckoning on closer to 400. ‘The Wolfpack will arrive Saturday morning and put up at Willard Hotel. Coach Hunk Anderson is bringing three full teams, and, according to report, his squad is in excellent trim, coming through the game last week with Boston College without serious injury. In this contest, won by B. C., 7 to 3, North Carolina State was able to muster its full strength for the first time this season. % TAKE A °°¢ CHANCE LT WINTERIZE 2% thorough check and systematic Bergman Rides Herd. | increasing the purse. preparation for cold weather includi oil change, greasing.

G. A. BY W. R. McCALLUM. AIRWAY prospectors who dig for hidden gold with flying nib- lic shots will have shot for $200,000' in cash by the end of the 1936 season, and prospects for the 1937 competitive golf year loom even brighter, the Professional Golfers’ Association learned today. Robert E. Harlow, tournament man= ager for the P. G. A, told the an- nual meeting of the association in Chicago that two commercial or= ganizations in this country are ne- gotiating for a $25,000 open tourna=- ment during the Summer of 1937, and it is practically certain that one or both may sponsor such an affair for the big pot of money. The biggest money tourney now be- ing run in this country is the $10,000 Biltmore open, to be played at Miami the first week in December. “There are at present two very live prospects in the United States, each a powerful commercial organization,” Harlow said, “and either or both of these may decide to sponsor a $25,000 | tournament during the Summer of 1931.” ] THEIR biggest tourney of the year, however, the pros are send- ing in more money than they take out in prize dough, Ha:rlow pointed out. This is the national open cham= pionship, the winner of which is in line for big money from exhibitions, indorsements, etc., but who gets only $1.000 as his share of the $5,000 purse. “The prize money for the United States open championship is too low and should be raised,” the ment manager said. “At present, pro- fessional golfers are paying in more in entry fees than they are taking out in money. (Around 1,200 pros en- tered the tourney this year at $5 a head.) “Professional Golfers’ Association executives should petition the United States Golf Association to consider Such action would help open-tournament purses everywhere.” Pros Lose in U. S. Open. Rich Money Indorsed. UT Harlow adds that if a sponsor does not appear for a big golf classic and a big purse, the P. G. A. | should take the lead by creating a big money affair in golf. “Nothing would stimulate interest in the game more than a competition in which the sort of cash the American sports pub- lic associates with important athletic events would be involved.” And by contrast: Right here in Washington Al Houghton, sponsor of the District open chame pionship, is having a tough time get- ting together enough of the lads to hold the tournament at Bannockburn next Friday. It looks now as if the prize dough for the affair won't run more than $100 for a 36-hole tour- nament, which is cigarette money to the pros. It's a funny game—this golf—but the experts should get more money for their efforts.

ETROIT, November 10.—If it's offensive, foot ball the public likes, the Midwest certainly pleased in large measure Saturday. The order of the day was touchedowns and then more touchdowns. Northwestern and Wisconsin kept & thrilled crowd standing during most of a free-scoring contest. The hapless Badgers went down gal- lantly before superior power, but not before they had marked up three touchdowns as the result of a splendidly conceived and executed pass attack. In the Big Six Nebraska kept on with its steady march to the title by beating Kansas, 26 to 0. 10 BOWIE TRACK BOWIE RACES WEEK DAYS, NOV. 12-28 PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD tourna- | original | i 3 K c | Erwin OMEWHERE between 25 and 30 birdie hunters will play in the District oven golf chame plonship at the old Bannock- burn Golf Club day after tomorrow, the pros to try to wheedle from their clubs the skill that will win ’‘em somewhere around $175, and the ama- teurs to compete for those pretty lit- tle pleces of silver that amateurs get when they win golf prizes. In many ways the tournament will be unique. In the first place it will be the first tourney held at Bannock- burn since the hilarious days of pro- hibition when the boys used to gather behind supposedly locked doors and invite their boy friends in to partake of some of the better brands of bath- tub gin; in the days when a Ban- nockburn tournament was & real party. In the second place it will mark the realization of the personal efforts of Al Houghton to stage a professional tourney at Bannockburn, which hasn't been done in many years; and in the third place it will again place the District open crown on the auction block, where the guy with the hottest putter may knock it off the head of George Diffenbaugh, reigning king of the pros in this golf sector. T'S a personal tribute to Houghton that he has gotten so many of the boys to play in the affair, what with several of them getting ready to go South and the others about ready to hang up their clubs in local competi- tion for the year. The only missing entries will be Wiffy Cox of Kenwood, who hasn't played in many of the local events this year, and Leo Walper of Bethesda, who will be at Pinehurst. All the rest of the boys will be there together with a smattering of amateurs headed by Levi Yoder of Kenwood, the Middle Atlantic cham- pion.

Volney played yesterday and failed to turn in a card, saying he didn’t have time to finish the tour- ney and he'd better not play if he couldn't finish. So George Nealin’s 71 won the medal, but he was only a shot ahead of Bob Leapley, who finished 4, 5, against the par of 3, 4, for a 72.

Other preliminaries are: Jimmy | O'Boyne, Boston middleweight, vs. Joe | Lynch, Plainfield, N. J., and Victor | Vallee, Puerto Rico, vs. Johnny Campo, | six rounds each, and Charley (Red) Boyette vs. Jack Moran, four rounds. Three in Battle For Coast Title BY JAMES PHELAN, Washington Coach. 'ORTLAND, Oreg., November 11. —On a percentage basis Wash- ington is on top of the Coast Con- ference race with four wins and one tie, but Southern California and Washington State still are in the running. Washington must meet both. This leaves the confer- ence title very much a matter of doubt.
