Speaking eral weeks and have two hard | gamew already under their belt. The NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 1927. FSpoaking]| LUONOWSTOWAH CORBNS RETNN [ | of Sportal Lovers of golf in this section will have the opportunity of seeing one of the leading golfers of the world in action Sunday afterrioon when Bob Gardner, forfmer amateur cham- pion and runner-up in several tournaments, pairs up with Harold Stelner against Bill 8weeney and Chet Irwin of the club force of players. Gardner is on a par with Bobb)' Jones, Jesse Sweetser, Francis Oui- | - met and all the others with whose uames goit is synonymous. Ho is| one of the cleverest of the big time | players in this country and on three difterent occasions led the Unuedi States Walker cup to victory over the opposing British team. It isn't very often that a golfer of his ability is seen in action in New Britain and crowds of follow- ers of the sport ‘will surely be on hand to watch him. He has the pe- cullar knack of being able to hit the ball straight down the course. He takes his stance, sees where the hole is and drives right to it Bobby Jones today is numbered among the past champions. His title will pass onto another head to- day. Jones has the faculty of being resigned to his fate and with a shrug of his shoulders, he simply remarks that another year is com- ing. It is evident to those who are not interested in golf that there must be something about the game that makes men wild.. To make an in- vestigation of the “early birds” who arise in the small hours of the morning to get in licks at the game | at Goodwin park in Harttord, is to see that these men are not only dev- otees of the game but also they are norbid fans. | No business house could watch its iccounts more closely than most | golfers watch their scores. Tt is a | time for rejoicing when a stroke 1s lopped off the total but it is a time for despair and gloom when instead of growing smaller the number of | strokes increases. The Collier Juniors beat the Cy- | clones 15 to 3 at Walnut Hill park. Buffalo, center fielder for. the Cy- clones made two snappy catches during the game while Cabay starred at bat for the winners. Stubby pitched for the winning team strik- ing out 14 men. Marcincyk was he- hind the bat. T0 PLAY WILLIANTIC Kensington With Reinforced | aseup to Tackle Strong Team sunday Afternoon. The All-Kensington baseball team will stack up against onc of the strongest teams of the scason Sun- ‘ay afternoon at the Pe:cival ave- ! ue grounds in Kensington when it | ¥ neets the West ds of Willimantic. The visitors Lave a strong combina- tion of baseball talent on its roster and with the Kensington team re- vamped, a slzzling contest is expect- ed. Manager Dan Malarncy will prob- ably use Bruno Kania in the box against the Thread City i ggregation, while Scott may draw the assign- ment. Smith or Farrell will do the twirling tor the Willimantic team, and either man is a prime favorite among the team's backers to win. i | Rochester AMERICAN LEAGUE Games Yesterday New York 8, St. Louis 1.

He was captain of the United Btates | Walker Cup team for three years and has been runner-up to cham- pions in various other tournaments. He was vice president of the Unit- ed States Golf association in 1924 and 1925 and was amateur cham- i pion of the United States in 1309 and 1915. He was runner-up in 1916 and 1921. He was ecaptain of the United | States Walker Cup team in 1923-24 and 26 and while in that capacity, | the team never lost the cup. He lost i to Jesse Sweetser in the semi-final of the amateur championship tour- !nament in 1923 and 1924 when Sweetser won the title and he lost /to W. L. Hope of England one up ;in the first round in 1924. In this match the “breaks” were against | him and the only thing that beat | bim. He lost to Bobby Jones in the second round for the amateur cham- pionship in 1922 and again to the same Georgian {n 1919 in the second round. Tncidentally both these matches were lost by the same score of 3 up and 3 to play. He has always been near the top in the championships. Steiner, because of his private {work hasn’t been able to engage in tournament play to any great ex- i tent but bhe is one of the low handi- cap men in the Metropolitan district. He is a wonderful golfer. The appearance of both of these men at the local club will be a | great opportunity for local golfers to watch a real big-timer in action. Bill Sweeney is one of the leading golfers at Shuttle Meadow while Trwin is assistant pro to Val Flood and an excellent golfer. The match | wil be one of the best seen at the club in years. The course is much hetter now ago but Val | nearly perfect as possible for the Sunday match. It will be started ol about 2:30 e'clock. MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS. |By the Associated Press. National.

Perhaps the most important is that between the | South Congregational and First Lutheran churches, for, in addition to being rivals in church play, these teams are now battling among the leaders. The Swedes went into a half-game lead by virtue of their victory over the Stanmors Monday, but the South church is omly one game to the rear and can tie the Lutherans by winning tonight. The Swedes dropped their only game to the St. Matts, who fell before the South church Monday, but the league teams arg so closely matched that predictions from past scores are impossible. A defensive battle with Bill Fresen and Bill Darrow facing each other on the mound is expected. The game will be played on Diamond No. 2. The Stanley Memorial team, now in second place, will enrgage the| Trinity Methodists on Diamond No. | 1. The Stanmors are anxious to atone | for their defeat Monday night and must win to stay in the race. The Methodists need the game, too, as| they have fallen behind the pace- | makers and must get back if they are to remain in the the running.

Torrington, June 17 (A — Jack Otto, 20 years old, bowler of this city, is the new state duckpin champion. The youngster closed his week schedule here last night by defeating BiN Tato, Bridgeport's representative, in seven out of nine games on the Walcon Alleys, which gave him a 13 game lead on the 1936 titleholder, Jimmy Barber, of Waterbury. Barber rolls his final match in Waterbury tonight. The New City lad, the youngest bowler in the league, won 143 games and lost 107 for the season, and finished with an average of *.87.

Gene Sarazen was third with 302 after a bad 80 in the morning and Emmet French, playing as a tar heel although nei- ther born nor bred in North Carolina, came with a rush to finish with 304. Walter Hagen, with a great chance to win cracked wide open with an 81 to wind up his challenge. Two visiting Britishers were well up, Archie Compston with 308 and Arthur Havers scoring 310. The 18 hole play off, starting at two o'clock this afternoon was ex- pected to be full fireworks, It will offer a study in contrasts. Amour, the silent Scot, will proceed in ortho- dox fashion while it would not be surprising to see Cooper the lo- quacious youth, adopt a catch as catch can policy. Cooper, a carefree young man who is willing to chat with his friends ting the ball fall where it will. Coop- jer may cause Armour to shudder with some terrific wooden club shots and long putts and Armour is just as apt to break his opponent’s heart | with his deadly irons. It was sug- gested before the play scores may be in the high 70's or in the low §0's. They won't be very low. Oakmont has dealt out much more punishment than it has suf- fered in the last tew days and it has by no means lost its punch.
