The sel and Combs wrought havoc on all sides. This season, however, its slege gun power has waned, espe- cially slnce July, so much so that the Athletics now boast the heavi- eat attack of any of the four clubs in the closing pennant scramble. The Yankee trio boasted a com- bined average of .350 with the stick in 1927 byt the latest unofficial av- erages show a falling off to .317, with the chief reservist, Ben Paschal aroynd the same notch. The Athle- tics are ten points higher with a mark of 327 for the four who have seen the. most service—Simmons, Miller, Cobb and French. The reversible Glant outfield forces offer considerable contrast. The strongest trio at bat, averaging around .320, consists of Welsh, Ott and O'Doyl. The combination of Welsh, Reese and Mann is barely ablo to muster an average of .300, but it is more effective against |seuthpaw pitching. The youthtul Ott 15 the hardest natural hitter in the collection, but Welsh and Reesc have been setting a terrific pace lately. The Cardinals have a great slug- ger in Chick Hafey, who hits them earnestly and far but it takes his excellent mark of around .340 to pull the 8t Louid average up to 304 for the outer garden as whole. Douthit govers a lot of ground in center, but he has not been hitting consistently. Harper and Holm, who divide the right field responsibllities, also are somewhat erratic. Defensively, the veteran | Yankee trio is the best of the lot. |There aren't two better throwing arms in the business than those of |Ruth and Meusel while Combs Is 4 ball-hawk. The loss of Eddie Roush cut down some of the de- fensive skill of the Giant outfield {but Welsh has proved a capable t | successor.

He putted his way to victory while Sweeney lost tbe match' on the greens. Both played their woods and irons to perfection. Sweeney got away to a flying start by sinking his approach for & three on the first hole, The rest of the {holes to the ninth were halved. Hart captured the final hole of the lower nine to even up the match. Both players scored 38's. Sweeney took the 10th and 11th holes but Hart evened the match by winning the next two with a par and & birdie. The 15th was halved in par 4. Ted was one up on the 16th with a 3 to < for his opponent. The 16th was halved in fives when both failed to sink their putts. It took steady nerves to play the 17th hole. Ted had a onehole lead which he must not lose. Sweeney must win both of the last two holes to win the match at the 1§th hole. A test of golfing skill faced them both as they teed off, PLAN LAST OPEN AIR BOXING SHoW Three Feature Bouts Carded at Hartlord Velodrome Thursday Hartford, Sept. 26—Three feature bouts top ihe card to be offered at the Hartford® Velodrome Thursday ight. It is expected that this show ill be th last of the outdoor, new- at the Velodrome this summer by Fromoter Homer Rainault. Of chief interest among these fea- ture bouts is the one which sends | Browne Tueker, Hartford's sensa- | tional colored bantam, against Hap Woo, Chinese bantam. Tucker has hecome an outstanding figure in ring circles in Hartford and vicinity. This summer, an unknown, he has scored an unbroken string of knock- outs und now is second in local fans esteem to but one hoxer, the hurricane-like Bat Battalino. Tucker has not fought at the ! Velodrome In two weeks, but in the meanwhile stepped up to Holyoke and over to Waterbury to add two to his knockout album. He faces the | hardest test of his carcer in meeting | the Chinaman. In ancther feature, Joe Zotter, the New Britain lightweight who sprung into prominence when he beat Pan- cho Villa, takes on Marino Pagoni of Springficld, the boy who fought Villa half a dozen times, winning all but one of the battles.

They both passed the test with their drivers. Both laced out yard shots. Sweeney played a long iren to the green and Hart matched the shot. Now it was a test of putting. Both had long down hill putts. Sweeney played first and ran five feet beyond the cup. Hart got the line and just missed the cup for a birdie. Sweeney’s putt curled away from the cup while Hart sank his to win the hofe and match. They played out the last hole for the score: Hart 38-38—76; SBweeney 38-39—77. Two good golfers had played fine golf. One was on his putting game and the other was off. Aside from that there was not much difference in their play. This gives Hart his first oppor- tunity to play in the finals of the club championship and he should give one of the Manning brothers a hard battle. Dave and Clarence Manning are scheduled to play off their match this afternoon. Whoever wins will provide & worthy opponent for Ted Hart in the 36 hole finals to be played the 30th. 225 perlence for every position. Niemiec is a great back who can kick, pams and run. The Notre Dame passing attack suffered last year be- cause he was out when Flanagan was in as Niemiee was Rockne's best passer. This year Niemiec will be a regular and the forward passes will fly to the mark in every game Notre Dame plays. Chevigny, another halfback, is ex- ceptionally fast and the best defen- sive back I saw last season. Elder, the sprinter, is about rcady to do sensational work on the gridiron. These are only a few of the men with one or two years of experience from whom Rockne should be able to build a typical Notre Dame team. In the line the Irish will be strong at center, almost as strong at guard and u bit stronger at tackle. The backfield will be stronger defen- sively than it was last year and | practically as strong offensively in | 6pite of the loss of Flanagan. Marquette starts with one of the | country’s greatest all-round backs in | Captain Gebert, a big fellow, who | can do everything brilliantly. Crow- |ley, Corbett and Waschick are also | dependable backs. Ten linemen | who had experience last year will be |back and the best information ob- | tainable is that the oncoming | sophomores ars of exceptional class, Several of thent will pass last year's regular for starting positions, FIGHTS LAST NIGHT the Aswociated Press.
