Henry Cotton To
Play In Open At
Toledo In July
LONDON, June 13 m Henry Cot
ton, young professional golfer who
refused to Join this year's British
Ryder Cup team except on his own
terms, sailed today for the United
States to play In the American open
at Toledo In July. .
"I shall bo at Columbus on, the
das's of the Ryder Cup match," Cot
ton said, "and if I am needed and
asked, will play for Great Britain."
Cotton, considered the best of the
young British professionals, led the
field at Carnoustie In the British
open for two days, then faded badly
on the last 36 holes and finished in
a tie for tenth place.
I His refusal to join the Ryder Cup
; team, was on the grounds that he
I thought 'he had a good chance to
' win the united states open "and
! didn't want to be forced to return
! with the team without having a
I chance to cash in on the title.
Boston Braves -Give
Cardinals
Three Defeats
Hy Hugh 8. Fullerton Jr.
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
The real tough spots in the cur
rent pennant race have been few and
far between for the St. Louis Car
dinals, but they seem to have struck
one in the current series with the
Boston Braves. , .
Up to yesterday, the Cards had not
lost, more than two games In -a row
all season and had done that only
on three previous occasions. Then
the Braves stepped up ana made it
three straight over the National
league champions, winning 7 to 5.
Ed Brandt and Burleigh Grimes,
pitchers with two of the best records
in the circuit, were sent against each
other. Grimes yielded- 15 hits. In
cluding homers by Berger and Dres
sen before he was removed in the
sixth while Brandt lasted until the
final frame, giving only seven hits
and fanning six.
Keuuce (animal Lead
The defeat reduced the Cardinals'
lead to 2 games as the Chicago
Cubs and New York Giants - con
tinued their neck and neck race with
a victory apiece. The Cubs made it
three straight over Philadelphia by
a 7 to 4 count while the Giants over
whelmed Pittsburgh 8 to 2.
Frank Watt made his first start
for the Phillies and did a good job
up to the sixth inning. Then the
Cubs scored twice to take the lead
and Increased it right up to the end
despite the efforts of three more
Philadelphia hurlcrs. Fred Fltzttlm-
mons pitched eight shutout innings
for the Giants, after a wabbly start,
granting only slot hits efcogether,
while New York piled up 14 blows.
In the American league, Cleveland's
mound ace, Wes Ferrell, was driven
from the mound in four Innings by
the slugging Washington Senators.
Led by the supposedly Injured Joe
Cronln, who mode three hits In four
times at bat, the Senators won their
seventh straight game, 7 to I.
jactc Kusseu set the Detroit Tigers
down with three hits and Boston
won 3 to 1 although held to five
blows by George Uhle. The Red
Sox went Into a tie with Chicago for
sixth place as the White Hose dropped
on 11 to 2 decision to the New York
Yankees.
Roy Ma haf fey gave the Philadelphia
Athletics a 6 to 2 triumph over the
