SETTERS Pat Nolan, Ireland, Deadlocks Two Americans ST. ANDREWS. Scotland, July 3. (IF) Horton Smith, American professional from Chicago, shot a sub-par 71 today to po into a tie with George T. Dunlap of New York, amateur star, for the lead in the first' qualifying round of the British onen golf championship.

Each was two strokes under par for the new course, with Bill Burke. Greenwich, just behind at 72, and other Americans making strong showing. IRISH STAR TIES Pat Nolan, Irish professional from Portmarnock, made it a triple tie for the lead by duplicating Dunlap's and Smith's card of 71 over the new course. The big British star, Archie Compston, shot the old course in par 73 to share the bracket at this figure with Gene Sarasen, the defending champion, Olin Datra, American professional title-holder, and Joe Klrkwood. Johnny Farrell, who paid his own way to St Andrews for another crack at the open, finished with a 38-3977 on the new course to be well back of the leaders, but in a good position for tomorrow's second 18-hole qualifying round.

His score was four over par. Leo Diegel, last of the American Ryder cup players to complete the first qualifying round, turned in a 75. Two sixes marred feis otherwise good card. WOOD IN TROUBLE Densmore Shute had the same to tal, and the American contingent, with the exception of Craig Wood of Deal. N.

did not appear to have any special qualifying worries. Wood rocketed to an 82 and faced the necessity of a strong comeback tomorrow to remain in the tournament.

Seville with the record within her grasp, swam off her course so badly that she lost a full two seconds. The A. A. U. timers on the job clocked here in 0:27 just 4-5 of a second slower than th standard that has stood for five years.

The swimmers were off to a perfect start. Mrs. Saville, immediately dashed to the fore. Less than 15 yards from the finish line, she broke her stroke and started swimming on a tangent. Before she had crossed the finish, she had cov-ered more than 20 feet In this lateral direction, which undoubtedly cost her the record.

Babe Scott and Wyn Wandoe, team mates of Mrs. Saville's from the Western Women's Club, won ths silver and bronze medals respectively. Ed Peck, a Y. M. C.

A. boy, showed a pair of fluttering heels to Ralph Sanderson and George Win-berg respectively in the 100 yard swim for men. Marion Gilman, a Western Worn-en's Club starter, won the 100 yard swim for "girls. Jerry Ballou, comedy swimmer; Clyde Diaz, funny diver, and Bob Beck, sensational high diver, shared honors In the exhibitions that fol- LONG BEACH, July 3. (yp) It will be tough going over the 2000 meter Marine Stadium course here next Friday and Saturday if the galley slaves who labor in the National Inter- colleelate Reeatta even begin to live up to their masters' expecta-ttons.

One of the six which will com pete, California's crew arrived on a coastwise steamer from Berkeley Sunday afternoon tb the announcement of Ky Ebright that "I have more confidence in this crew than in the one which rowed here April 15 in the Pacific Coast Championship." OTHERS ARRIVE Washington has sounded off in something of the same tenor, while University of California at Los Angeles is just sawing wood and keeping its nose to windward. Today arrive the other tnree boatloads Yale, Cornell and Harvard and to Judge by advance reports, one member of the eastern combined contingent Is six feet tall, with at least 23 brothers the same size. As bright and early as the arrival of the train permits, the eastern squads will motor down from Los Angeles and dip their shells in salt water to take the kinks out of their joints. Sedentary habits and voracious appetites for a number of days, said reports from the train en route, haven't done the crews weights any good, and daily work outs are in order to get in trim for the two-day tests of stamina, stroke and muscle. The eastern shells already are on a siding here, awaiting the touch of familiar hands.

The 40 young men making the trip west will be lodged during their stay at hotels in Los Angeles and Pasadena. BETTER CREW Said Ebright of California upon disembarkation: "This crew is younger and less experienced, but it has more ambition and more competitiveness." Only two members of the varsity eight which rowed here in the spring are included in the present crew, Charles Chandler, No. 3 and Howard Lackey, No. 4. The Berkeley boys will work out this morning.

Ebright said the course record of 6 minutes 2J) seconds set on the Olympic Course last summer by Italy "probably will be smashed beyond recognition." This prediction stacks up with that of Coach Alva Ulbrickson of Washington who, herding his Huskies into Long Beach three days ago, opined that his own boys would, break the record. Ebright, to go Ulbrickson one better, disclosed that the California crew which won the Olympic race last summer had covered the course in 6 minutes in practice. The Westwood squad will leave its bunkhouse at -Wilmington for a Long Beach hotel today. Omaha Baseball Player, Hit by Pitcher, Dies OMAHA, July 3. (P) While the pitcher who him sat grief-stricken at his bedside, Jess (Jake) Batterton, 19, second baseman on the Springfield, (Mo.) Western League baseball club, died today in an Omaha hospital.

He had suffered a fractured skull and a cerebral hemorrhage. Batterton was knocked down by a ball thrown by "Swede" Carlsen, Omaha pitcher, in a jtame here Sunday. Batterton was the son of Mrs. Claudia Batterton, Los Angeles. Carson Victor In Swim Race Eastbay swimmers made an excellent showing in the Lakeside club's first swimming meet Satur day night at Lakeside Plunge.

and Ed Westman of Point Richmond, in the 50-yard dash, to win in 25.2 seconds. Harmon Jones and Don Karns of the Lakeside Club won -the midget canoe tilting and Charles Egan and Bud Smith of the club were a close second to Bart Coffin and Les Joseph of Alameda who won the rseHTCftilting.

OhKSSTAIIGLE win i LEADERS Double-Header Set For Local Field Tomorrow Br EDDIE MURPHY "R'ar Brnbaker and his Oaks did the Sacrainento Senators a nice torn TestendaT when they won two games at Portland to enabje the 'Capital City tossera to atretch their lead in the? Pa cific Coast League pennant race to lour lull games. But tomorrow afternoon 1 on the local diamond, will see the Oaks trying to do the very thing to the league, leaders that they dld-to those Ducks. The Oaks are bound today after winning the series from the northern team. HALF-WAY MARK. The clubs reached the half-way post yesterday: "and tomorrow all; of them atart joyer the second half by, playing double-headers in celebration of Independence Day.

The double bill' here tomorrow will get under way at 1:30 o'clock, the local management having decided that doubles prove more popular with the fans than, the program of game In the morning and one In the afternoon. The -first double- header of the season was offered here two weeks ago and attracted the best crowd since the opening day of the season. The flag race waa Becoming plenty hot when the Oiks stepped oat yesterday to show their appreciation of daylight ball and the Portland pitchers for a total of 14 safe hit. The Senators had a lead of only two games ever the Docks. and helped their own eanse by taking two games from Seattle while the Oaks were winning the pair rem the Docks.

When Oscar Vitt was here a few weeks ago with his Hollywood Stars he predicted that the Angels were the team to beat for -the league bunting, and, ever since, the south' era tossers have given reason to be lieve that the leader of the Stars knew of what he was speaking, Today finds the Angels in a second place tie with the Pucks, and if the Oaks can do as well against the Senators this week as they did with the Ducks, those Angels may find themselves at the 'top of the ladder by the end of the week or early next week. I ANGELS AT HOME. While the Senators will be the Oaks here, the Angels will be at home entertaining the Mission Reds who lost five games to the Hollywood Stars last week. The Reds promise to be considerably weakened due to the absence of Bill Walters, their second sacker, who was sold to the Boston Red Sox yesterday. Evidently the Red Sox management is determined not to see the club finish in the American League basement.

Besides getting Walters from the Reds, they purchased Fred Muller, Alvarado boy, and Mel Almada from the Seattle Indians. Muller has been slated for a big time job for several seasons, and he should get over in a big way with the Red Sox, as he is one of the most dependable fielders In the Coast League. So far the Oaks and Senators are billed for eight bajl games this series, hot prospects are bright for the series becoming a nine-game one, as the two teams were rained out of a Satnrday afternoon contest daring the last series they played Aere. Although they won a double-header yesterday, 8 to 5 and 6 to 2, the Senators lost the odd game of the series to Indians, who pulled the biggest surprise of the week. But just when the Tribe gave its supporters something to crow about, the management turned around and disposed of Almada and Muller.

It will mean a weakened Indian team meeting the Ducks at Portland this week. The Seals, who were defeated In five of their seven games witlv the Angels, losing yesterday's double-header, 5 to 1 and 6 to 3, returned home today to open a series tomorrow with the Stars, who won two from the Missions yesterday, 7 to 8 and 3 to 1. i Amateur to Box At 'Duffy's Smoker Amateur boxers of Duffy's gymnasium and the Golden Oaks Club will clash at the weekly smoker at the former gym tonight Dr. QJV.

Wrestling Bull" Montana, "Sailor-Boy" Jack, Charlie Miller and 'tted'SMartin will com-plete the LOOP Jfllli BUDGL MARBLE TAKE STATE CROi Sensational Play Marks Triumph of Oakland Boy By RALPH BELL Don Budge of Oakland is looking today for more worlds to conquer after his triumphs in the most sensational state tennis tournament which close followers of the game here can remember. He won only two titles yesterday as the thirty-third annual California championshios ended at the Berkeley Tennis Club, but only because he played In just two finals. His first state title was won Saturday with Dick Bennett of Oakland in the junior boys' doubles. Budge Is the youngest player to take the men'c state title since 1917. "Any story of the state tourna ment must start with Budge and almost as surely finish With the Oakland lad of 18 who with the utmost calm blasts his opponents out pf the picture ana modestly says after ward that he was "just lucky." But before he took his second title Alice Marble had defeated Mrs.

Anna Harper of Oakland, 6-2, 10-8, to re tain ner women's singles crown, while Phil Neer and Wally Bates had no trouble in the men's doubles final, winning from Stanley Aim quist and Larry Hall, 6-2. 6-1, 6-3. BEATS LYNCH. MURIO Budge won from Jack Lynch of Taft yesterday morning In the junior singles final, 6-3, 9-7, 4-6, 8-6, ana returned to the court in the afternoon to out-speed and out- maneuver John Murio of San Francisco in the men's singles, 6-2, 4-6, o-, 0-1. Any youngster of 18, who can go home with a state junior championship safely atowed away and sleep soundly for an hour while he awaits the time to play for the most important championship he haa yet had a chance to attain, has the temperament and mentality of greatness that makes champions.

Budge did that yesterday, under the watchful eye of his brother Lloyd, NEVER RUFFLED Tennis fans will be talking for days of the -men's singles event and of Budge, whom the experts candidly admit "has everything." Not only haa he the strokes of a champion, but the presence and strategy of one far beyond his years. Murio's most burning drives failed to ruffle one of the flaming red hairs on his head; his uncanny ability to fathom Badge's plans and return what shonld often have been sure placements left his young rival as certain and calm, as when they rnshed to the net after Budge took the last game at love. One spectator calls attention to Budge's perfect footwork, another to his steady, ability to find the exact corner of the court, and third his aces and his service which had Murio on the defensive. Others remark on his strategy and strength. When you put them to gether it means that Don's a real champion.

The match was remarkable, too, for its few errors, the majority of points being won with placements and smashes so speedy that the victim could only watch the ball shoot by and call out "Fine shot" iptirlo and Budge both executed passing shots which brought appreciative ejaculations from the crowd aa spectators realised the history-making play they were watching. They knew they were seeing I youth who before long may take his place as an international star, win his first major tournament They thrilled to the keenness of his play and the indomitable spirit of his opponent who never once, as his powerful shots came back to difficult spots, showed anything but a confidence that eqeualled that of the new champion. LONG, DUECE GAMES Budge ran out the first set at 6-2, which doesn't tell the story of the long dueced games, nor the furious, long rallies. Budge took one game at love in that set but it was evi dent that he still had a battle ahead. Games went with service in the second set until the fifth when Murio broke through to lead 3-2.

but Budge evened it on the San Franciscan's service. Murio broke service again in the ninth game when Budge's double faulted with the score 15-40, and won his own service to take the set at 6-4. The runner-op forged Into the lead In the third set bat there' were few who doubted the outcome after watching Don't steady work. Here waa a strenuous combat, with long dueced games which kept both players flgnting for every point With the games at 4 all Badge finished the ninth (Continued on Next Sport Page.)

They pounced on Rudy rjalllo, "Junk" Walters and Bob Fitzke for 15 hits and an easy 32 to 8 win in the first game, and earned back in the nightcap to col lect 19 hits off Joe Bowman. Wal ters and Jack Wilson for a 15 to 7 triumph. The defeat cost the Ducks two full games in the Coast League race as the league leading Senators were winning two at Battina honors were fairly well divided among the Oaks in both games with Harlin Pool adding the most points to his season average by get ting tnree hits in each contest.

Emll Mailho, who was the only Oak to go hitless in the first contest, probably because he waa charged with only one legitimate time at bat, connected for one of the three home runs made In the aeeond game. The others went two Ducks, Henry Oana and Earl Sheeley.
