MRS, HILL LEADS QULIFYING ROUND Kansas City Women Two Under Par in Title Play Los Angeles, Oct. 14 (BP)—A duel of champlonship calibre was in pros- pect here today as two of the mid- dlewest’s most promising entries in the national women’s golf champion- ship, Mrs. Opal 8. Hill and Miss Bernice Wall, opposed each other in the feature clash of first round match play. Both were semi-final- ists last year. s * Mrs. Hill, of Kansas City, who firt took up golf on a doctor's ad- vice six years ago, yesterday startled the 96 feminine stylists. by finishing two under par to lead the qualifying round with a 79 over the trying Los Angeles Country club’s north gourse. Miss Whll, from Oshkosh,” Wis., finished with an 87 but was forti- fied for today's match with a good- ly record in competition. Mrs. Hill lost to the defending champion, Miss Glenna Collett, who, seeking her fifth crown, also show- ed to advantage yesterday, posting an 81 to tle for third in the medal round. In the first round she faced Mrs. Harry Grossman of Los An. geles, an opponent scarcely expect- ed to cause her trouble. Helen Hicks Posts An 80 Miss Helen Hicks, the 19 year old Inwood, N. Y., girl, self educated in _ For the third time in the three years of football relationship be- tween the Stamford and New Brit- ain High school football teams, the New Britain team will face an unde- feated down state eleven on Satur- day. In two games played so far Stamford High school has been suc- cessful in defeating Rooseveélt Eve- ning High #chool of New York, 18 to 0, and the Bay Ridge High schook of Brooklyn, 20 te 7. In comparative scores indications are that the New Britain High school team will enter the game as the underdog in the betting. It has lost two of its first three games, 13 to 0 to the Naugatuck High school alumni and 6 to 0 to the Pittstield High school tegm. Its lone victory, was over the ew Britain High alumni. New Britain will have three of last year's regulars at the start, They are Richie Fink, Ed Kloiber and Captain Joe Ludwinowicz. Stamford High will have the veteran Captain Best, who is playing his fourth year on the team; Lynch, an end, who was ejected from last vear's game shortly after it started; Shannon, guard, who was picked by Coach George M. Cassidy on the lat- ter's all state team last year; and Bello, center of four years' experi- ence. Hanrahan Gone According to information received from Assistant Coach Paul Kucio of the Stamford eleven, the rest of the team was lost through graduation.

It was the second triangular deal involving Chicago and Los Angeles in as many seasons. Last year the Braves got Walter Berger, their home run sensation, from the Coast league, a piece of strategy credited with having much to do with extri- cating the team from its traditional place in the cellar. Smith has pitched eight seasons for the Braves and has a good rec- ord. Welsh, who came to the wig wam from Seattle five seasofs.ago, cost the club $50,000 but had a com- paratively poor season last summer. Cubs Obtain| Sweetland Chicago, Oct. /14 —The latest flourish of Willlam Wrigley's check- book has made Lester Sweetland, a left-handed pitcher, a member ,of the Cubs, and other flourishes, chl- culated to bring the National league championship back to Chicago, may be expected soon. President William L. Veeck of the club yesterday announced the pur- chase of Sweetland from the Phila- delphia Nationals, for whom the southpaw worked during the past three seasons. The deal was strictly cash, and while Veeck did not reveal the amount involved, it was reported that the Philly treasury is $25,000 better off. Another Philly Next? In announcing the purchase of Sweetland, who won six games and lost 15, according to unofficial fig- ures for 1930, Veeck said the deal was “the first move toward bolster- ing up the pitching staff.” He did not say who might be the next hurler rurchased, but more reports said Rogers Hornsby wanted another hurler whose contract belongs to the Phillies. | The name of Pinky Whitney, Phil | ly third baseman, has hecn mention ed in connection with the Cub strengthened plans.

In this instance, to the left, as the backfield is wun- balanced to the right.

By now Rockne expects the short side of the defensive end and tackle to be in a quandary, and they probably are. So Schwartz again criss-cross to Savoldi, and then feints another spinner. By this time Carideo, No. 3, and Metzger, right guard, have had ample time to come around and harass the end, and Brill, No. 4, to come out and protect Schwartz as he completes the turn and starts for the sidelines. As soon as Savoldi has got by the right end, Schwartz tosses him the ball over the head of the in- coming end. Brill continues on down the field to block the sec- ondary.
