Farr Viewed as Snap for Louis : Four-Foot Putt Golf’s Big Shot < BOUT MEANS REAL 0IN'TO BRITISHER Will Get More by Meeting | Joe Than He’d Make in Years in England. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, July 10.—Offhand and from hearsay information only, I am of the opinion that Thomas Farr, the British heavyweight champion, will be one of the softest touches ever pitched to Joe Louis. Of course, that fight is necessary, for it is far better ‘or Uncle Mike Jacobs and the heavyweight business that Thomas fight Joe Louis in New York than Max Schmeling in London. The longer the German can be kept idle the more eager he will become for a crack at the Brown Bomber and that is the match the paying customers want. Herr Schmeling is the odd party in a hice little game of freeze-out and will learn that Uncle Mike Jacobs is the | world champion at that pastime. | Schmeling’s tactics already have cost | & him the chance at Louis this year, and when he comes up to taw next Summer he'll just be that much older and no better in any detail. Farr Is “arned FARR cannot be taken as a serious threat to Joe Louis, despite his wins over Max Baer, Bob Olin, Wal- ter Neusel and others. Chances are Louis could take that crowd into| the ring and flatten them all in a battle royal. Writing in the London Express, Ted Broadribb, the Briton's manager, says that “Farr has intui- tion.” All that I can say to that is that Mr. Farr's intuition must be | jumping a few cogs, otherwise it would tell him to remain a. home while his skeleton still is in good working order. Kingfish Levinsky also had intuition, but it told “im to get| ——— = " - knocked down quickly before Louis had the chance to do him any perma- | nent damage. I don't know much about Farr’s fighting form, but I can| tell him at this distance, his intuition s all wrong and won't be worth a| ha'penny in blocking Joseph's rights and lefts. Farr, a Welshman, who comes from Penygraig in the Rhonda Valley coal flelds, was nothing but a small-time fighter around London until the last few months. He started business as & Dpit-face miner, then became a bellboy in Cardiff and finally a waiter in London before taking to the ring. Never in Big Dough. Elinor Finckel, who bowed to Edith Clarke. VANDERBLT BOAT ASSURED OF SLAM Ranger Sails Final Race in Trial Series Before Meeting Britisher. FARR never has been in the big money, which is one reason the chance to fight Louis in New York is 0 attractive. Trevor Wignall, the London Express columnist, told me that Farr received only a! few pounds for fighting Tommy Loughran and Bob Olin and that one | of his top purses was the $375 paid | him for beating Ben Foord, the Sou!h‘ African champion. So, in a way, there's nothing wrong with Farrs\ Intuition about money, for he'll zet‘ more fighting Louis than he could | pick up in England in severa! years. | Farr is a bandy-legged 6-footer, | weighing a bit over 200 pounds and has just turned 23 years. He is not rated a hard puncher, but is fair on | defense and has plenty of stamina, | wherein he differs from Phil Scott and | some of the other Britishers who | ‘were perpetrated on American flght fans in the past. The fellow may | be a fair, run-of-mine fighter, but| there's nothing to indicate he will | be any match for Louis. But, as was said before, there's nothing for Uncle Mike Jacobs to do but pitch him to Joe Louis and clarify the heavy- | wegiht situation so that Schmeling will have to come over for a return | with the Bomber. I think there is every reason to suspect that when Louis has fin- ished off Parr, the Welshman will appreciate fully our popular song, *That's September in the Rain.” Minor Leagues INTERNATIONAL.

EWPORT, R. I, July 10.—The only unbeaten slocp class in the world, Harold S. Vanderbilt's Ranger, today was Tecently | favored to retain that standing when | Clarke and Margaret Robinson against she meets T. O. M. Sopworth's second | British challenger for the America's Miss | Cup off here July 31. Only today's meeting with Chandler Hovey's Rainbow and Gerard B. Lam- bert's Yankee stood between her and the date she will be called upon w guard a cup emblematic of Yankee rule of vachting since 1851, when the ! schooner yacht America brought it home from England. ! Navigator is Buried. INCE Ranger already has won 11 straight races from her two unsuc- cessful rivals for the defense nomina- tion, there was little reason to suppose she would not make it an even dozen. By virtue of her three victories in the current series of four races for a cup offered by George Nichols, former commodore of the New York Yacht Club, there was_little doubt she would stow it in her locker this evening. The series will be decided on points. After seeing Capt. Donald MacPhee, Endeavor II's navigator, who died two days ago, to his last resting place, Sopworth again took up the task of | preparing his big blue sloop for her international test. Capt. MacPhee's grave is in a little cemetery at the end of Farewell street, close beside other | mariners who died far from home. He was buried in his racing togs and his battered yachting cap rested on the coffin, A wreath of cornflowers and mari- | golds furnished the racing colors of | the boats he not again will navigate. 'RING RATING MAKERS | TO SEE STEELE BOUT Quarterly Rankings for N. B. A. Will Be Announced After July 20 Go Here. N ORDER to gain a more definite line on several prospects who may nudge into fistiana's top flight, the entire Rating Committee of the Na- tional Boxing Association will attend the Freddie Steele-Hobo Williams 10- round non-title fight at Griffith Sta- dium July 20. The committee, which decides the status of all champions and contenders | in each division, previously had been scheduled to meet here this week to determine its quarterly ratings, but postponed the confab so that members may view Williams and Joey Archibald, Providence featherweight, in action. Those attending will be Joseph Ma- loney, president; Edward Foster, exec- utive secretary; Frank Hogan, presi- dent of the Canadian Boxing Commis- sion; Charles Reynolds, director of the department of athletics, Rhode Island, and Dan Kelly, chairman of the Massachusetts State Athletic Commission. BASS FISHING BETTER Potomac and Tributaries Clear in ‘Western Maryland. BALTIMORE, July 9 (#)—Bass fishing was reported improving in Western Maryland during the last few days. The State Conservstion Commission was informed the streams and Potomac River were cleared of mud and debris. The Potomac was said to be prac- tically free from mud between Shep- herdstown, W. Va., and Hancock, per- mitting good bass fishing. Rains over last week end caused the streams and river to become muddy. . EASTERN SHORE. Easton, 2 Salisbury.

HANKS to Mrs. Howard Ford, chairman of the committes running the women’s District | tournament, it will be possible to see the new champion crowned at Columbia Country Club without neg- lecting today's important Army-Navy Leech Cup match at the Army Navy | Club. Although the final match, will involve Edith Clarke and Sa Moore, originally was scheduled for this afternoon, Mrs. Ford realized that | many local net fans wished to see the big service match, also set for today. | Thus her decision, which post- | pones the Clarke-Moore title tilt until tomorrow afternoon. Doubles semi-finals, which sending Miss Mary Ryan and Margaret Butler and Moore and Frances Grimes | against Edna Vest and Ella Owens, were to be played this morning, win- ners to meet for the team title tomor- | row. Miss Clarke and Mrs. Robinson are defending champions. \ Anne Ellis Dies Hard. ARTLY restoring the prestige of seeded plavers whose reputations had been somewhat clouded the day | before, when two of the four were beaten, the Misses Clarke and Moore yesterday advanced to the final round by beating the two who had forced the | elimination of the two other favorites Of yesterday's losers, Anne Ellis, | who had eliminated Mrs. Robinson, | the seeded No. 1 entrant, proved the most stubborn, carrying Miss Moore to 8—6 in the first set before bowing, | 6—0, in the second. Although she | lost only 3 points in the first three | | games of the match, Miss Ellis was unable to sustain the pace. Sara ral- | lied to take 12 of the last 15 games for | Office, 4—1, and War nosing out Social | the decision. Elinor Finckel, who had ac- complished more than any un- seeded entrant could hope for by the elimination of two rank- ing players in two days, proved no match for Miss Clarke, losing, 6—1, 6—0. Victories over Frances Grimes and Edith McCulloch, however, give Elinor | cause to mark the 1937 District as a red-letter tournament in her life. Miss Clarke, incidentally, has | reached the final round almost as easily as did Barney Welsh in the ! men's tournament a week ago. Four | | of her five victories have come by | 6—1, 6—0 scores, the fifth coming in two love sets. In other words, she has dropped only three games in four matches. Heffner Wins Title. 'HE first of several State champion- ships sought this season by Harry Heffner has fallen into his hands. In a clash with another nationally- ranking junior, Harry, ranked tenth, defeated William Gillespie of Atlanta, Ga., ranked twenty-fourth, for the Delaware State title yesLerday, 6—3, 6—3, 6—4. Only in the last set was Gfll&%pie in | the running. Then, getting away to a 4-1 lead, the Southerner appeared as if he might take a set. Heffner rallied, however, winning five of the six games without undue pressure. His hot forehand and frequent AGEE WILL GALLOP FOR BALTIMORE U. Enters Law School, Will Strive for U. S. Marathon Team to Run at Tokio, By the Associated Press, BALT(MORE July 10.—Bill Agee, former Olympic marathon run- ner, will carry the colors of the University of Baltimore next Fall in intercollegiate competition. He has entered the university's law school. Herb Brown, director of athletics at the university, said Agee may be entered in the national collegiate cross-country championship next Fall if the school is financially able to send him. Agee won the national marathon championship in 1928 and ran for the United States in the Olympics that year. Brown saild Agee will start training under the supervision of the university staff for the 1940 Olympics in Tokio. The South Atlantic Association has sanctioned Agee's competition with the Bees. He formerly ran for the Stonewall Democratic Club of Balti- more. He now holds the South At- lantic marathon title. & B «‘7‘_‘3‘;? T Dl ii cross-court placements had Gil- lespie at his mercy. It is interesting to note that the two other District juniors entered bowed only to the finalists, David Johnsen losing to Heffner and Billy Turner to Gillespie in the semi-finals.

ORVAL WIGGINTON, assistant chess director of the Washington | Social Chess Divan, which boasts the | only exclusive chess lounge in the Nation's Capital, declares that the lounge at the Parkside Hotel has not had its game facilities equalled by any chess group in the District. Wigginton gave me the low down on the divan as we lunched yesterday in one of those air-conditioned cafe- terias that line downtown Fourteenth street. The divan has averaged over 50- odd members each month since its formal opening last March. There has been a turnover in playing per- sonnel of 150 members. July active membership is over the 40 mark, de- spite the increasing temperature which makes indoor pastimes most undesirable. But there is a reason for the divan holding its own and for ‘its steady increase in paid mem- berships for three months to a year. Located on the south side of Franklin Park at the Parkside Hotel, 1336 I street northwest, the playing quarters of the divan are commodious and cool. Ventilation is excellent and the abundant game facilities obyi- ates stuffiness from overcrowding. Also, the fine playing equipment is a lure that warms the cockles of the visiting chess fan's heart and though he comes only to pause for a few minutes, he can not resist the temptation to indulge in just one “lostle” game of chess. \ ) two other | who volun- | Reshevsky, | | | , COTTON IS HALED | TRUELINKS GREAT | s | Seen in Class With Jones, Vardon, Hagen, After British Open Win. BY GAYLE TALBOT. Associated Press Sporis Writer. ARNOUSTIE, Scotland, 10.—Henry Cotton, nobody even pretends to know, is ready now to take his place alongside Harry Vardon, Walter Hagen and Bobby Jones among golf’s immortals. It has been suspected for several vears that Silent Henry that select circle. He left no further doubt about it when he shot that final | 71 in a pouring rain yesterday to win his second British open in four years. Reg Whitcombe, the man he beat in July the man | that closing burst of pure brilliance, | | said “That probably was the greatest round of golf ever shot under similar circumstances.” When he won in 1934 with a suc- cession of sub-par rounds that made everybody dizzy, Cotton had only two | American stars to beat, Gene Sarazen and Denny Shute. This time he has trimmed the entire American Ryder Cup team.. He made it so conclusive it wasn't even close. Cotton Man of Silence, YOTTON'S total of 200 over the kind of course Carnoustie has | baen the last three days was the sort of miracle you couldn't appreciate unless you had tramped around Caxnmlsue with rain pouring down your neck Yesterday it took two powerful blows to reach most of its greens. Veterans like Walter Hagen, Ed Dudley and Bobby Cruickshank found themselves short hole after hole. | Youngsters with plenty of vim like | Sam Snead, Byron Nelson and Ralph Gulhahl finished their rounds so ex- asperated they didn't want to talk to anybody. But Cotton (he still hasn't talked to any one) overtook Whitcombe's three- stroke lead starting the fAnal round and finished comfortably ahead. The man is another of those golfing gen- iuses that come along every so often. There is no one to touch him toda: like it or not. He is tall, well built, slightly pigeon- toed and his high cheek bones give an oriental cast to his countenance. He doesn't smile ever, and now and again he, throws his clubs irritably when he has missed a putt. He doesn't | hob-nob with his fellow professionals nor even speak to a playing compan- ion during a round.

HE ISN'T popular at all, yet invari- | ably he commands the biggest | gallery in the field. see, though, is a man who can drive approximately as far as any man who ever hit a golf ball and whose short game is maddening in its consistency.

Cotton will make close to $20,000 out of the open championship, whereas Charlie Whitcombe admitted at lunch | yesterday it wouldn't be worth more than $5,800 to his brother Reggie, who was leading at that time. Cotton is an unsociable cuss, but he has glamor. Nobody ever will be able to explain adequately what happened to Amer- ica's red-hot young Ryder Cup men, but here are a few hints: In the first place, none of them ever had played & course quite like Carnoustle, where they could hit a 300-yarder straight down the middle and find themselves in 4 bunker as deep as a box car. Another thing, the entire American contingent was too intent upon play- ing its wide range of spoons. There used to be only one spoon, but now the manufacturers apparently are turning them out in myriads of models. In- stead of playing their irons as in days of yore, every American you'd see was trying to put a No. 4 or No. 5 spoon on the green. Mostly they missed them. Changing their minds a second time, all the American Ryder Cup players now have booked passage home on the Berengaria, leaving England July 14, NEW YORK-PENNSYLVANIA, Elmira, 2: Hazleton, 1.

BY W. R. McCALLUM. OU hear golfers ranting and raving about the length and accuracy of Sam Snead’s tee shots or Jimmy Thomson's lethal wallops, or the pin-splitting iron shots of Tommy Armour or Denny Shute. But the deadliest shot in the | game remains the 4-foot putt. So long as golf is predicated on getting the ball into a 4'2-inch cup, just that long will the short putt from' within a 5-foot circle be the stroke that wins championships. And you don't have to get any particus lar verification of this fact Wilfred Cox, the loose-jointed, long-hitting pro at the Kenwood Club, who has played in more major tournaments in recent years than any other local instructor, says the 4-foot putt is the most important shot in the game. “What good does it do & guy to hit the ball a mile,” asks Wiff, “if he gets the big jitters around the cup. Plenty guys are using a crutch to keep up there in the game who can't hit the ball very far. No better crutch is required than the ability to knock in those putts when they'rs needed. Give me the good putter every time against the man who can knock 'em a mile.” Barnett Methodical on Green. OB BARNETT has an idea about the putting angle that he tries methodically * to achieve. Bob’'s scheme, roughly, is to attempt to place his approach putts in a 2-foot circle around the cup. He goes for all the putts under 10 feet or so, | but on the long approach putts of 20 feet and more he tries to stop that ball within a 2-foot circle. Since he adopted that method, he has mads himself into one of the best putters among the pros around Washington. No better example of the magic of the putter versus the mighty wallop | of one of the great driving masters | ever popped before the eyes of golf galleries than the final of the P.

He is expected to arrive hm’ about July 20 for several rounds of | | goif over some of the local courses as the guest of Harvey Johnson, for- mer Columbia champion. Of course Freddie thinks that Oak- mont is just about the finest golf course he ever has seen, says Johnson. “But I think we can show him a pretty good golf course right here at Columbia. Freddie is not the longest hitter in the world but he is one of the | most accurate. I think if he can get | the ball around Columbia in par or better he will qualify for the cham- pionship at Portland.” | Rippy Defends Title. | EVENTY-FOUR golf players from the public links will start Monday morning to play through Tuesday in a 72-hole tournament for the local public links championship, with | Claude Rippy defending the title he has won for the last two vears.

Time after time Jimmy knockad his tee shots so far on those lengthy par-4¢ holes he was home with a 7 iron, while Denny played a No. 2 for the second shot. But Denny, the master of the putter, was his master at all stages of the match. He never missed a holeable putt in the final. McLeod Could Show 'Em. UT Fred McLeod on a 6,000-yard golf course and even today, near- ing 60 and well into the twilight of his competitive career, he could stay in there with the big hitters of the game. They don't produce better chippers and putters than Fred Mc- Leod, particularly on slick greens. “We drive for our own pleasura, but we putt for a living,” sald John Farrell, 1928 open champion. John should know. He never will forget the 7-footer he slipped in on the thirty-sixth green at Olympia Fields to lick Bob Jones in the playoff in | 1928 When the final payoff comes and the checks are down, the putter is | the weapon that wins golf matches and championships. et S GROVE'S NINE IN LINE. | Sunday games on its home diamond ‘ are wanted by the Washington Grove nine Call Manager Becker at Gaithersburg 149-W between 6 and 7 o'clock.
