Tarn O'Shanter Golf Circus Has
Everything - Joe Louis, Three
Tourneys War Stamps. Prizes
By CHARLES DUNKLEY
CHICAGO, July 23 (&) The
lupcr-duper golfing triple-header
at Tarn O'Shanter is on the
way of setting fabulous records.
The spectacle is attracting the
biggest assemblage of spectators
In the history of the ancient
Scottish game, and also figures
to result in the greatest war
stamp selling drive credited to
any sport.
To date more than $400,000 in
war bonds have been sold, with
three more days to go. The goal
is $1,000,000 in bonds and $100,
000 in war stamps.
Admission to this amazing car
nival is $1 or more in war
stamps which the purchaser
retains. The total attendance
may reach 75,000 to 100,000.
This circus-like event is gold
on a stupendous scale. It is three
tournaments in one, lasting a
full week, where the best ama
teurs, professional and women
players now available can be
seen at one and the same time,
and on the same course, in com
petition for $12,000 in cash and'
bonds.
Thrown In for good measure
Is the world's heavyweight box
ing champion, Sgt Joe Louis,

NEW YORK. July 23 (P)
Proving both that he is literate
and that he knows a good idea
when he sees one, Willie Gilzen
berg, Tony Galer.to's manager,
comes through with a letter just
like the ones Jimmy Johnston
writes. . . . Willie takes this way
of accepting a challenge from
Jimmy's heavyweight, Freddie
Fiducia, so there's ground for
suspicion that Johnston helped
write the letter. . . . "Everyone
challenges Galento, even wrest
lers," moans Gilzenberg's type
writer. . . . "Yet few fight him,
or agree to do so. They ought to
leave the poor fellow alone. He's
obese, he's squeaking, he can't
lift his hands and he can't move."
. . . Agreeing with all those
statements, we're perfectly will
ing to leave Tony alone, but for
one fact that Willie points out:
"T. G. does all right to the ex
tent of a grand note a week as
a master exhibitionist.
OFF HIS BASE
During the Cubs' recent east
ern swing Lou Novikoff swung
at a bad pitch, somewhere
around his right ear, and drove
it to the outfield for a single. . .
As he stopped at first, one of the
umps told him: "Don t ever yell
at me the next time I call that
kind of a pitch a high strike on
you or I'll chase you out of the
game.

If he hasn't lost any during

players who eventually managed
world champion baseball clubs,
Jake Stahl, George Stallings,
Gabby Street and Bill Mc

Red Birds Chirp Over
Bad Pitching Injuries
No Sympathy for Champs Now Leading
Nationals by Margin of Five Games
By JUDSON BAILEY
Associated Prsss Sports Wrltsr
Some plaintive chirping has been coming from tha -nest of
the St. Louis Cardinals in recent days because of their stricken
pitching staff, which has been badly maimed by injuries and
calls to the service.
But their National league rivals probably will be slow to show
any sympathy for the world champions, who have just won four
games in a row and increased their first place margin to 5V
games.
The Cardinals came up with another victory over the New
York Giants last night 6-2 with
big Mort Cooper acquiring his
13th victory against five defeats
by pitching eight-hit ball and
holding the Giants scoreless
after the first Inning.
George (Whitcy) Kurowski
hit a homer with two aboard in
the first and Ray Sanders added
another round-tripper in the
sixth.
The cause of the Cardinals
was helped at Cincinnati as
Bucky Walters shut out the
Brooklyn Dodgers 5-0 on three
hits to get his fifth victory, a
prize he has been seeking since
June 11.
The Dodgers' grip on second
place was left unshaken, how
ever, because the Philadelphia
Pnillies bounced off the floor
to wallop the third-place Pitts
burgh Pirates 3-0 and 9-6 in a
doubleheadcr.
The Boston Braves, who had
not beat the Chicago Cubs all
season, also turned the tables
with a double victory 8-6 and
3-2.
In the American league the
New York Yankees out-walloped
the St. Louis Browns to win
9-5 with Charley (King Kong)
Keller hitting his 12th homer
with two on for the Yanks and
Vern Stephens getting his 14th
with one on for the Browns.
Detroit downed the Washing
ton Senators twice in a twilight-night
doubleheader 7-5 and
1-0. Rudy York's 13th home run
and second in two nights came
with two on in the sixth inning
to win the first game.
Cleveland was outhit 7-5 but
managed to beat the Philadel
phia Athletics 2-1 by scoring
twice in the fifth. Jim Bagby
smothered the A's after they
had scored once in the first.
Chicago at Boston was post
poned. Weekend

PORTLAND, July 23 OP)

The Coast league first division,
with the exception of the Los
Angeles Angels, who were idle,
put on a tumbling act yester
day, Portland, Seattle and San
Francisco all bowing to the bats
of second division rivals. The
Los Angeles-Sacramento gamo
was postponed.
Wildness on tha part of Joe
Dcmoran cost the Rainiers their
contest with the Hollywood Stars
by a 3-2 score.
The Stars scored first on a
homer in the fourth by John
Dickshot. Seattle tied it up In
the fifth on two singles and an
error.
In the seventh, however, De
moran gave up two hits, hit a
batter and walked in a run with
the bases loaded to give the Stars
two runs for the inning.
Bill Matheson's homer for
Seattle in tho last half of the
inning couldn't close the gap.
Portland lost a 2-1 decision to
Oakland when the Oaks, counted
twice in the last inning to spoil
a two-hit shutout for Portland s
Pitcher Cook.
In that inning Scarsclla sin
gled and went to third on De-
vincenzi's double. Bell struck
out but Caufield singled home
the ticing and winning runs be
fore Portland could shut the
door with a double play.
San Diego downed San Fran
cisco 3 to 2, although the Seals
had rallied for their two runs
in the ninth inning and had the
tielng run on base when a dou
ble play put out. the fire.

Without going Into that thread
bare subject did Jimmy Gar
rison deserve a draw decision
with Rudolfo Ramirez in their
welterweight battle In Portland
last week? wo can't get rid of
a feeling that tho projected bout
between Garrison and Henry
Armstrong is going to be consid
erable of an ordeal for Jimmy.
Whether Ramirez deserved to
win or not, there Is no disputing-
that ho gave Garrison a
fancy messing up Garrison is
susceptible to messing up. Even
when ho wins he takes many
scars away with him.
And you know whnt Henry
the Hammer docs to guys like
that.
Ramirez flatted Jimmy's al
ready recumbent nose, split open
one eyebrow, puffed his Hps
and severely cut tho inside of his
mouth principally with a sharp
left hand. Old perpetual mo
tion Henry works with both
hands and very seldom calls a
recess. '
This Is not to say that Gar
rison didn't put up a swell fight
against Ramirez or that ho won't
fight like a Tropan against Arm
strong. We have no doubts at
all that he will. But he chops
up too easily. And Henry has
no parallel as a chopper.
