Doe Swell, drainer ef tha Rotary golfer, said hie teem ' woa cat strokes but lost en s strategy. The, cogwheel drrot diggers made a lower combined tnedal ecorw thaa did the rie torloo Xiwanlaaa (by Just ecn stroke) Vat were away behind m potato. Tals man's towa has gone golf craxy. There's ao other topic of discussion at luncheons, business xaen's "conferences," in stores, pool halU aad oa the streets. Aad we notice that (be high er a man's score, the mora words he uses to describe his . "1 was getting some pretty good drives before I took those les sons." Is heard on every side. Tea, ignorance of one's faults Is blias. It appears to be driving some of them nutty, but as we may hare remarked before, there are worse forms of insanity. Business can't be too terrible, when men's chief concern Is their golf score. Eugene papers are making a big fuss over Oregon's "quarter ton of tackles," George Christen- sea and Austin Colbert. Sure enough, they're really that big, bat oar recollection Is that Chris. tensen is a "sit down" tackle and Colbert a trifle too reckless to be dependable, aad just why all of the hurrah chorus we can't imag ine. If that pair of tackles is all Cap McEwan has to count on, he's likely to be out of luck. We pick Teddy Fox. Another great wartime institu tion is to be revived. American Legion posts in Linn county are organizing pushball teams to com pete at the county fair. That's a man's game, sure enough. We played it at the Presidio 11 years ago this month, but aren't hanker ing to try a comeback. The annual postponement of the deer season Is at hand. A delegation of blacktails will call on the governor Friday after noon to express the apprecia tion of their organisation. The Ducks may be on the skids, as our gasoline pumping friend predicted. But we notice every downtown radio is shouting" oat the story of the game these after, noons. "Strike two on Hornsby. Oh, I beg your pardon. It was a ball. and English is batting, not Horns by. Aad he hit it! It looks like a home run! No, It's a-foul ball. No, the amplre called It fair. It's going tato the bleachers In right center. No, it'a falling short. Wright Is after It no, it's Haas. He missed It no, he caught It, and the side Is out Oh, I forgot, that makes only the first out. English was the first man np. Wil son Is coming to bat ao. It's Hornsby. Yes, the old Rajah him self. Well, tans of xadloland, this is a great October day and the stands are full of rabid fans. It's a "colorful erowd. Ton ought to be here to see it. Ball one on Hornsby. Maybe they're trying to walk him. Though why they should, with two oat and nobody on I mean one oat and nobody on there, that .one was right through the center. Cayler is swinging three bats la front of the dugout no, It's Wilson, he's up next, aad he's got only two bats." Yon get the Idea. Graham McXaine is going to broadcast the world series again this year. .Yanks Lose AsA's Win Yesterday NEW YORK. Sept. 11.

Curtain raiser Principals to be announced from ringside. Almost anything may happen in tonight's mala event at the ar mory, featariag Teddy Fox, local champion, and Art Akers, south paw who Is a comparative new comer. The possibilities are con siderably wider la scope than those that attended Fox's recent scrspe with Willie Gordon. - The fans knew practically all there was to know about that fight In advance; but they don't kaow a tblng concerning- what Fox may do to Akers, or what Akers may accomplish at Teddy's expense. Akers Carries Good Wallop Says Gordon Gordon, who did some sparring with Akers before his recent fight here, says the portsider is cleverer than the fans here real ize, and It's his opinion that Akers will eauBe Fox a lot of worry be fore the ten rounds are over. Ak ers has a lot to gain and not so much to lose aud it's certain he will put everything he has into It . Doubled barreled interest was Injected Into tonight's card Wed nesday when Matchmaker Harry Plant announced Soldier Baker of Vancouver Barracks as the oppon ent for Ted Rogoway In tbe six round go. Baker recently knock ed out Bobby Vernon In a sched uled six round tight in Portland; Vernon is good enough to hare been given several main event calls in that city. The soldiers at Vancouver are strong for Bak er, and a number of them are ex pected to accompany him here to day. Rogoway is well known as Portland's ranking middleweight. Wetzel aad Hagaa To Do Their Stuff Another fight that is billed as a preliminary but may steal a lot of thunder from tbe major events, is the bearywelght scrap between. Jack Wetzel of Jefferson and Bob Hagan of Salem. Wet sel la the boy who swings, like a blacksmith, and floored a couple of big bruisers In fights here last winter. Hagaa was listed to meet Boh Kelly on the last card, but Kelly get a look at bim and didn't ahow up. I Danny Moore, active 1" rmm InninannaiiM will I poander from Independence, will mala his second current appear-1 anee against Rus Greene, uoya i Ambrose, who has been letting I his twia brother Floyd do most of I the family's fighting for the last couple of months, wiu re-enter the arena against 'the lad tnati both of the twins have been I hammering at for months; Jackie Wattenberger.

Champronshfp By TED VOSBTTRGH Associated Press Sports Writer FOREST HILLS, N. Sept. 11. (AP) The old guard at American tennis has yet to be stopped ta the drive for the na tional . singles ehampioasaip. Whea a thrilling series of fourth round battles had ended at the west side stadium late today, those seasoned contenders Bill Tilden. Frank. Hunter and Rich, ard hi. Williams, shared places In the final round of eight with ton young Americans and a youthful invader from England. Big BUI. now well on the way to his seventh national crown, coasted into the quarter-finals without the necessity of removing his sweater, defeating Henry Cul ly of Harvard 6-3, 7-6, S-S. Many tat the gallery of 4,040 deserted the stadium to watch his match on an outside court. William Comes From Behind to Win Arrayed against Arnold W. Jones of Providence, R. I., Wil liams, holder of ibe national championship In 1914 and 191C, eame from behind after losiag the first two sets aad took the match. Ia the quarter-final round to morrow Williams meets another member of the old guard Hunt er, at. 2 p. nr.; while Tilden tack les Johnny Van Ryn, youthful member of the American Davis cup team, at 4 p. m.; Bunny Aus tin, the lone remaining English player, stacks np against Johnny Doeg at 3; and Frits Mercur takes on the hard-hitting Texan, Wfl mer Allison, In the opening match of the day at 1 o'clock. Hunter had his troubles today in a thrilling duel with Wilbur F. Coen, Jr., 18-year-old Kansas City youngster who is Tilden's fa vorite protege. Young Coen Shows Well Rounded Game Driving and serving beautiful ly and playing a well-rounded all court game that seemed to Justify Tilden s prediction that some day he will win the national cham pionship, Coen woa the first et from Hunter and made a great fight for the second. Here the im mature youngster weakened, how lever, and Hunter's superior stam CSgS "ied him to TiCtOry at 4-t, 7-5. 6-1, 6-4. Like Williams and Hunter, Aus tin too was forced to come from behind to win from Ed Felbleman, former Harvard player, at 1-6, 5-7, t-l, 6-1, f-t.
