MEDFORD MAIL .TRIBUNE, SIEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, JCXE 10, 1932. PAGE NINE YANKEES FINDING A Former Pride of Somerville Who Dazzled On Mound ; for Red Sox Last Year Is Fizzle for New Boss By OA VLB TALBOT. (Associated Press SporU Writer) Danny MacFayden, the pride of Somerville, Mass., and the man for ttnm the Yankees made an Im portant outlay of players and money last week, begins to shape up as the prize puzzle of the 1932 cam paign. He won 16 games and lost only 12 last season for the sixth place Boston Red Sox. and came to be recognized as one of the game's greatest pitchers. Then he turned right around this year and lost 10 of his first efforts for the Sox. ; The popular theory was that it didn't count, that MccFayden's de feats were chargeable to the offen sive Impotence and fielding weak nesses of his teammates. Fizzle for Yanks. But the transaction had an en tirely different complexion today and there was even some doubt the Yankees had driven such a shrewd bargain, after all. MacFayden made his maiden ap pearance In a New York uniform yesterday against the Detroit Tigers and lasted only six Innings, as the Tigers scored a 5 to 4 victory. They pounded MacFayden for 11 hlte and scored all their runs before he was relieved. It was the first game the Yankees bad lost to a western team tiis season. The loss reduced the Yankees lead over Washington to five games, the Senators grasping the opportunity to defeat Chicago, 6 to 5. largely on errors by "Red" Kress and Bill Sulli van. Cleveland defeated Philadel phia, 9 to 8, In a slugging match and knocked the Athletics from third place In the American league standing down to fifth. Browns Win Third. George Blaeholder of the St. Louis Browns chalked up his seventh vic tory of the year as the Browns took their third straight from Boston, 2 to 1. Hack Wilson was the day's fair haired one In the National league as he clubbed Brooklyn to a S to 2 triumph over his former compat riots, the Chicago Cubs. His home run with the bases loaded and a single drove in all the Dodger runs. The loss did not deprive Chicago of the leadership, however, as Bos ton was dropping its second In a irow to the onrushlng St. Louis ' Cardlnals, 2 to 1. , Bobby Brown, Braves' sensational rookie, suffered his first defeat. Melvin Ott's two home runs pro vided the Giants with another vic tory over Cincinnati, 3 to 2, and Pittsburg bunched its blows to squeeze out a 4 to 3 decision over Philadelphia.

(AP) Twelve egge traded with en American dough boy for a pair of boxing gloves at a camp In France In 1017 waa the first link In a chain of events that tomorrow brings Marcel Thil Into the ring to meet Gorilla Jones, Akron, O., negro, for the National (Amerl can) -Boxing association's middle weight championship of the world. It waa watching American dough boys box at a rest camp In the east of Prance that fired young 13-year-old Tnll's blood snd It wss the seme Americano who taught him to lick all the other kids in the vil lage. Tnll's first fight In publlo was an amateur In IMS. Then he rolun. teered for service In the navy in 1924. Not another lack tar of his weight could keep on his feet against him, and he walked away inn "i" navy championship. His servlc ended, he turned pro fessional and fought his way all over the country to Paris. In Parte he was taken In hand by Alex Tal tard In 182S. He married Taltard'a daughter four years later. In 1928 he won the middleweight championship of Prance and the chsmplonshlp of Europe a year later. The latter waa taken from him. how ever, when an Injured hand pre vented him from defending the title. E TO SANDWICH, England, June 10. (AP) Gene Sarazen, long-hitting American golf star, today won the British open championship, with a record score of 283 to carry on an American golfing sweep In the event, unbroken since 1923. The 1022 American open cham pion scored his Vf33, two strokes under Bobby Jones' winning total of 1027, early In the afternoon and then watched those who had a chance to catch him, fade away under the pressure of having to shoot sub-par golf. ' Sarazen has been well up In the British open field for several years, finishing second to Walter Hagen In 1928 for his best effort up to today. SANDWICH, Eng., June 10. (AP) Gene Sarazen, who led the British open golf field by four strokes at the end of the third round, scored a 74 on his final 18 holes today for a 72-hole total of 70-09-70-74283. With the Prince of Wales a spec tator for the last five holes, Sara zen scored even par for the formid able -Prlrfce'a course. He finished two strokes under the record total of 285 for the British open eet at St. Andrews in 1927 by Bobby Jones, who scored rounds of 68-72-73-72. Jones' 68 in the first round of the 1027 event still stands as the record at St. Andrews. Sarazen gave Prince's such a lick ing as it never had suffered before, his four rounds being 13 strokes under "perfect figures." Gene finished out with a birdie four on the last hole, Just missing a seven-yard putt for an eagle three which would make Havers repeat his 68 of the morning to win. Gene's final card: Mac Don old Smith, Sarazen's fellow American professional, finished out with a fine round of 70 for a 72 hole score Of 71-78-71-70288, five strokes back of Gene. First prize in the British open is $100, about $360 at the current rate of exchange, and not enough even to pay Sarazen's steamer fare, but the prestige that goes with the title probably will mean at least $50,000 to the American professional.

One of the tln&it waya of tearing up remarkable aoorea verging on the "freak" clasa, you might aay la to disseminate euch a card through the publlo printa. Recently X had an account In thte column of an exceptional round by John C. Parker at Moultrie, Oa Three days after It appeared In an Oklahoma paper I received a letter from Joe C. Creager, of the Conoco Oolf club, Ponca City, Okla., enclos ing the card of a four ball match, which, for low scoring by the quar tet, rather lays la the shade any sim ilar round I ever saw, or heard of. The course of the Conoco Oolf wlub offers a par of 73. It Is not a long course 6,093 yards. And It has sand greens, and, according to Mr. Creager, plenty of trouble on It. An Amazing Showing Even so, the scoring is amaslng. The star performer, with a card of 62, waa T. J. Rogers, 1991 open cham pion of Oklahoma. He was paired with Walter Emery, runner-up in the 1931 Oklahoma amateur champion ship, against Jimmy Achats and Char lea S ton land, 17-year-old high school boys of Ponca City. The match waa an exhibition af fair, and it would seem that the gal lery got all that waa coming to It in the way of golfing performance.
