KOCITESTER DEMOCRAT AND CTTKONTCLE. SUNDAY. JULY 7, 1010 SB He How Carnival of Champions. Will Finance Scholarships res tuitions vary with various colleges and universities, four or even up his reserved "ducats for the Hadium punch extravaganza, wants costs and values, studies the price scale for this show, then con By DON HASSETT more may he feasible from the outset. The fortunate studcnt-athlctra selected for the scholarships may designate any college or university as the school they wish to attend; la no way will the committee limit or influence their choice.

Then the committee will make arrangement with the schools named for annual payment of tuition, not to exceed $1,600 for a four-year course. In few colleges does four-year tuition exceed this and in many state universities where part of the fee is paid by the state, it Is considerably less. With considerable foresight, the committee plans to select alternates who may profit when the tuition of the four regular candidates does not exhaust the scholarship fund. If, for Instance, the tuition of four candidates aggregates, say, but $5,500, the balance would enable the committee to pick an alternate who might select a school, mindful of the amount available for his or her four-year tuition. There are no strings attached.

The recipients in no way will be obligated for return of the money granted them, and their choice of schools and courses of study will be their own affair entirely. But those who are selected, you may he sure, will be the choices of six keen, experienced men familiar with educational aims, standards and possibilities. Six men anxious to put the opportunity of a college education at the disposal of four resilient of Rochester and Monroe County who otherwise would find degree work and higher education a financial impossibility. It's. a neat little chain of circumstance: You support and enjoy the Tournament of Champions; that feeds the kitty of the which directs the money to the Civic Scholarship Award Committee, And a year from the price of your ticket to the finest chin-cuffing show Western New York ever has seen helps to pay the college tuition of some deserving, intelligent boy or girL siders the expense Involved and it costs money to bring even amateur, bokfrs from widespread seething of the country, ho realizes the bargain he's getting.

Now about this scholarship committee. Who are the men who constitute it? Well, the chairman is Commissioner John K. Keenan, member of the Board of Education and a leading protagonist of the cause of high school football. County Judge II. Douglass Van Duser, the Kev.

Joseph Vogt, Attorney Harry Goldman, David W. Densmore, assistant superintendent of schools, and CoL Kenneth Townson are Keenan-s associates. Okay. Now what about these scholarships they're going to award? And who's going to get 'eni? When next spring rolls around, an invitation from the committee will go out to all high school principals In the city and in Monroe County to recommend one candidate boy or girl, or, where they feel two candidates may merit the chance, boy and girl for scholarship considerations. You can readily understand that even one from each school will make for a sizeable group of would-be recipients.

Once the candidates are nominated by their principals, the board will ask the principals to submit each student's record of scholastic and athletic achievement. When the records all arc In, the committee really goes to work. Considering the records and the financial background of the candidates, the committee will narrow the field to a group whose members can be Interviewed personally. And after this select handful Is interviewed, the board members will make their final selections. It Is the aim of the Civic Scholarship Committee to award four 4-year scholarships annually.

Depending on the funds available, however, a lesser number may be granted the first year, but because to know, "What Is this Civic Scholarship Award Committee that'll administer the 'take' on tliU boxing show? Who are lis un mix rs and what are they going to do with the cash?" Before you answer those questions, you have to give them a bit of background of the organization behind the Civic Scholarship Committee, The Democrat and Chronicle Athletic Association. Founded within the last 18 months, the has as its prime purpose the promotion of sports which Interest and caU for participation of the greatest number of Kochesterians. XV. Dewey Crittenden is chairman of its board of directors, which includes business leaders, sportsmen and educators. A secondary purpose of the Is to provide funds for the Civic Scholarship Awards Committee, an outgrowth of itself.

And since the scholarship body plans to expend something like $6,400 annually if necessary, it requires a healthy income by the DiCAA to support it. The Athletic Association has sponsored a good many undertakings during its brief lifetime. Thjre have been swimming tournaments, badminton tournaments, a unique women's bowling invitation, a county handball championship elimination, a district table tennis tourney and even a marble tournament for the "kids" staged under lis banner. For the most part, they're the sort of things which cost nioney rather than make it, but they accomplish the association's major purpose: they have enjoyed wide interest and equally wido participation among the specialized groups to which they appeal. So to provide the funds which the Civic Scholarship board will require to send four boys or girls to college annually, the IWtCAA is staging its colossal Tournament of Champions under AAU sanction two weeks from tomorrow night.

When your ringworm, who knows TV4AYBE what the economists called a "business recession" and what you and I more realistically termed the depression was responsible. In any case, the day when a Texas Guinan could greet 99 and 41100 jwr cent of her customers with a confident "Hello, sucker!" is a thing of the past. Nowadays its the customer who does the greeting and his salutation most frequently takes the form of a skeptical query: "What's in it for me?" Boxing fans are no exception- Too often they've been sold bills of shoddy goods, and now when ring fare is offered them, they're prone to probe beneath the surface. They no longer want one "name" inside the ropes with any third rate puncher that comes along; thej'll still spend good money for a fight, but they want a good fight. They want two able men in a ring, not just one.

Tor the most part, local ringworms are satisfied that they'll get all the ring action they can stand in one night when the AAU title-holders meet the Golden Gloves chln-cuffers in The Democrat and Chronicle Alhletie Association's Tournament of Champions in Ked Wing Stadium July 22. They know the amateurs "give" when it eomrs to Nixing action, nnd they're aware that every man on both teams came by Ills title honestly and "the hard way." There's no half measure possible in those national championship tournaments which the Amateur Athletic Union and the Golden Gloves organization conduct. But now that he has become a skeptic, your average ring fan wants to know just a little more. He wants to know where his money Is going. Hence, it's only natural that here and there a fan, picking MACLEOD FAVORED TO RETAIN Mostly Work, a Little Play Makes Howie a Very Tough TITLE LAKE SHORE OPEN LISTED Tourney to Draw Bumper Field July 22 With $750 in prize money as bait.

the annual Lake Shore Open will attract a bumper field July 22 when Tom Lunt stages his 36-hole tournament at, the fast Beach Avenu course. The field may include big Ei Oliver of Hornell, current sensation of golf, if Oliver does not competa in the Western Open. In addition to first prize of $200, the $750 melon is split among tha first 20 finishers, which assures everyone who plays decent golf of expense money. Second place pay $120 and third $100. Amateurs finishing in the first 20 places will receive the same amount as a pro would, except the prize will be cashable in merchandise.

The entry fee is $5. Lunt started this tournament last year with $500 in prizes, and plans to build It up each year until eventually the boys will be shooting for big money. Besides the entire crop of dis trict professionals and the better amateurs, the field probably will include the Central New York delegation, Buffalo and even points as far east as Albany. A $200 first award is not to be sneezed at by any of the pros during the sum mer months. Tommy Newlove of the Syracuse Yacht Club and Bob Mitchell, an old favorite from Onondaga, will compete, Mitchell never fails to do well here.

Sturdy Mis MacLeod, a Duke University girl who represents Buffalo Country Club, is defending champion and JA I ii 1 4 a 60-50 chance of retaining that title. The young lady won in a rout last year at Transit Valley, where she piled up a huge margin on Mre. Walter Lyons of Oak 1 1 1 In the morning and 1 -r iuneicu in mc 4i; i on afternoon until the holes ran out. The field will play 18 holes of qualifying on Tuesday, with match play to start the following aay both in the championship and other flights. Only one match will be played per day, with the finals scheduled for Saturday over 36 holes.

Mrs. Storm a Threat Miss MacLeod's principal opposi tion will come not from her own but from Rochester, although Mr. Robert Storm of Niagara Falls, the former Honor Bright, may cause trouble. The outstanding contender will be Mrs. George Trainor of Monroe Golf Club, Rochester district title-holder.

The former Jean Ramaker is just beginning to steady herself in the 80'e and has been busy on the drill tee of late. Mrs. Trainor knows Brook-Lea well, for it was there that she won a district chnm-jionhip by shooting a record 81 in the finale. Mrs. Lyons, as finalist last year end as, for years, one of the most consistent tournament players in the section, is quite qualified to win herself, and would occasion no sur-jriw by eo doing.

Youngsters Question Mark Otherwise, the contention is not formidable, based on past records. True, some of the younger players may assert themselves for the first time, and it is to be hoped that they will do that little thing, for West ern New York Is grievously in need cf fresher competition. The ladies will find Brook-Lea, whoee best bet is Mrs. Henry W. Moore, paying off on strong hit- particularly on the back stretch where the par-4 hole are long indeed.

Several top men in the pee- wee buggy circuit promptly returned uheir signed contracts. Ten entries of the proposed field of 26 were received yesterday.

Quebec 'Refuge' Taken By British Stables Montreal The Quebec Rac ing Association has offered to take care of as many as 600 "refugee" race horses from Great Britain and has received acceptances from two British racing men, President Tommy Gorman said yesterday.

In reply to the offer to the secre tary of the Jockey Club In London, Gorman said he had received cables from M. Miller, who will send three marcs for racing, and from W.

Schenectady as George Vatke'a right-hand man four years ago, whales the hall a country mile and possesses a vicious punch in all his shots. At one time, he was professional at a Vermont summer resort club, and Is a Class pro In the National TGA.

The curly-haired little guy is the cream of the district's assistants so much so, in fact, that there no longer is any point in his playing in the assistants' tournaments. There is, in fact, only one assistant in Western New York who can measure up to the Monroe kid as a tournament player, and that is Alex Greer at Like all assistants, DeAngelus works hard, has little time to practice, plays only on his day off and late on Saturday with Vatke, Charlie Zeitler and Dr. Walter Schleede. "Ttiat day off (Friday) turned out to be a good thing this year," he says, with a grin. "All it does on Friday Is rain, or be cold, or blow, or something." DeAngelus's current golf ambition is to qualify for the national PGA championship, for which he is eligible.

His best card at Monroe is a 69, three under, although he has beaten that card elsewhere. Winters, he has been getting down south, although his trip two years ago was not exactly happy. "I was hitting the ball pretty well," ho said, "and decided to play in the Hollywood Open. On the way to the course, an auto came along and scored a birdie. The car acted just like a sand-wedge.

It hit me well under, knocked me up in the air, and when I came down, by gosh If I didn't have hackspln!" Anyway, the accident halted Master DeAngelus golf that winter and well into the spring. The impact had injured both knees and he was forced to favor those members for some time. "Makes my knee action bad," says Howie, shaking his head. Bob Standish thinks otherwise. f- 9f NOTKS: Walt Toertsch, the old Cornell star.

Doron, whose wife once held the women's district title and whose daughter, Jean, drives over 200 yards, recently earned some prestige on his own hook by winning a dentists' tourney for the third DeAngelus Earns Respect from Standish By JACK TUCKER OWIE DEANGELUS was standing on the sixth tec at Monroe Golf Club on his- day off when Bob Standish, the club's manager, tried to pick up some easy money. "Tell you what, Howie," said Robert, who would cheerfully -e Howie the sleeves of his vest, "I'll just bet a little 4 to 1 you can'h shoot a 72 today." Dr. Standish was not witnout acumen in placing this modest wager, for DeAngelus at the moment was two over par and, naturally, would have to shoot all pars and two birds the rest of the way in.

But Howie is a young fellow who likes to bet on his golf game when the occasion presents itself, and he snapped up Standish so fast that Robert began to think he had a sucker bet. Well, DeAngelus was 39 going round the turn. Standish rubbed his hands briskly. DeAngelus took a bogie 5. at the 10th.

Standish began to rib his victim. "You still like that bet, Howie, my little chum?" he asked. Howie wagged his driver thoughtfully. "I love it," he said. "Standish, c'and aside and hold your breath.

Here we go!" An hour later, Standish dazedly was paying off to Master Howard, who had proceeded to reel off birdie birdie-blrdie-par-birdie-par-par-par for an incoming 33 and 72, right on the nose. In addition, he got his last 4 the hard way emerging from a sandtrap at the 18th. This kind of golf is not untypical of Howie when that pleasant young man gets hot. For instance, in the only two prs tournaments in which the Monroe assistant has engaged this season, the name of DeAngelus came out on top both times. At Locust Hill, he and two partners won a pro-ama teur, and at Midvale he and ins partner won first place in a Western New York PGA pro-pro event.

DeAngelus, who Is 26 year old and came to Monroe from DeAngelus Fires 68 Score In Monroe Practice Round Assistant Pro vdlUS Two 34's, Misses Record of 66 Ripping off an eagle and three birdies after a first hole bogie, Howie DeAngelus wrecked Mon roe's fairways yesterday with a 68. just two strokes off the course record and four blows under par. The Monroe assistant pro clipped a pair of strokes off par on each nine, recording a 34 going out and the same figure coming in. He played with George Vatke, Dr. Walter Schleede and Charles Zeit- ler.

Bob Standish joined the foursome at the turn. DeAngelus didn't serve notice of what was to come until the eighth, when he carded a bird to even par to that distance. Then a pair of hefty pokes up to the ninth green gave him his eagle three and en- aDica mm to siari me DacK nine two blows under. On the 10th and 12th he birdied playing the other seven in par to chalk up his brilliant 68. His card: DeAngelus 545443423 31 par, out 44544343 536; De Angelus 34435434 434; par in 44535434 436.

DeAngelus' score was two shots off the 66 which holds the pro record at Monroe. That was es tablished in 1932 by Denny Shute, and the course has been lengthened and sprinklers installed since that time. $56,000 Purses Listed For State Fair Meet Syracuse CP) Purses with an estimated value of $56,000, largest ever offered here, will be divided among owners in the Grand Circuit harness meeting Aug. 26-3L BOXING TICKETS ON SALE TODAY 1 P.
