Crosby Plays Carter Today Semi-final Matches In Oakland Tennis Championships Slated By PHIL GEAT Play for the Oakland city tennis championship, being conducted by the Brookdale Tennis Club, reaches the final stage with the completion of today's semi-final matches on' the Brookdale Courts, High Street and Brookdale Avenue. Seventh Avenue Club's William Crosby goes against the last San-Francisco singles entry, Champion Nick Carter, in the feature match of the day at 11 ajn. NICK CASTER CHOICE Carter administered one of the worst lickings to George Rice, in the quarter-finals, that the veteran Brookdale ace has ever received. Crosby got past third-seeded Phil Hanna, in the same -ound, by the skin of his chinny-chin-chin. It looks like Carter, but all Eastbay fans have their fingers crossed.

Match Tops Tilden Event Club Championship Tourney in Second Round Play Today By BOB BLAKE If Jimmy Duffy, Algernon Pitx- gibbons Broom and Joe Herman haven't anything to do today, their presence at Tilden Park's golf course would be worthwhile. Duffy could referee the Milton K. Ross, Foster McMullen match In the championship flight Broom and Herman would make excellent sec onds. GRUDGE MATCH It Is reported by Dick Walpole, Tilden's manager, that McMullen and Ross hold no great love for one another. Last year, in the same championship, the boys clashed in a match and there was much gnashing of teeth before the round was completed.

Both men are excellent golfers and Ross happens to be the tourney medalist with an even par 72 to his credit. While the match will be an excel lent feature for the second round, the flight boosts other-pairings which should produce excellent golf. DANIEL VS. MAUGHAM Bob Daniel, San Francisco, de fending champion, meets John Maugham, while Aldo Galettl goes against Ed Wetmore.

bye. Alice Marble in Fast Tennis Win Continued From First Sport Page triumphs since that afternoon In 1938 at Wimbledon. The way she played today even the other great women tennis players or the past Moody, Lenglen, Mai lory would have found her hot to handle. Miss Marble moved into a 2-0 lead at the start of the match, lost service in an 18 point third game, and then went on to win with a run of 10 consecutive games. After it was over, they presented the championship trophy for keeps to the lithe, 26-year-old girl.

The big silver bowl will join the others Miss Marble has won because she retired it from competition with her third straight victory in the tourna ment. RIGGS PLATS PRUSOFF Tomorrow, the tournament winds up with Bobby Riggs playing Don McNeill of Oklahoma City in the finals of the men singles. Riggs, who has won the title for the last three years, advanced to the finals today with a 6-2, 6-2, 6-1 victory over Henry Prusoff of Seattle. Riggs dusted off the big player with the mustache in typical Riggs fashion by outsteadying his opponent Prusoff was beaten before he stepped on the courts. All week long tournament officials refused to let any.

player wear spikes. Today they gave Riggs permission to use them. Prusoff kicked because he never wears spikes. Had Riggs worn regular rubber sneakers, it might have been a closer battle. But with firm footing, Bobby was able to move around like a jack-rabbit and make returns he never would have reached without extnj help under foot Frank Mehner Wins DENVER.

EAST BAY PUTTER PATTER By Bob Bloke Picked up on the run: Friends of Charlie Sheppard, former Albany gou range pro, will be interested to know he won the Central Pennsylvania Open championship and knocked two strokes off of Byron Nelson's old mark when he finished with a 67-68135 Charlie clipped seven strokes off par and whipped some pretty good men, including Ed Dudley and Leo Diegel.

"In that opus you stated positively you intended saving your money to buy a horse instead of a sail boat, and while it is strictly none of my business still and all I suggest you complete the payments on your automobile before you take on additional obligations. "Naturally, having become a hoss fancier, you know about the International event which opened yesterday at Treasure Island. When'll you be over? Soon, I hope. (Interruption by A. Ward: So orry, pal, but I'm gonna have to pass it up.

You see, my vacation starts t'morrow morning, and while the animals in your performance are picking up their pretty heels and swishing their swishy tails, I'll be stretched in somnolent comfort on the sands of Meek's Bay on Lake Taho. So sorry, fella.) JUST LIKE HUMANS "Anyway, Alan, here's a little angle on our show, and realizing you go for those human Interest facets, I'm giving It to you exclusively. "No, no, don't thank me. It's really pleasure. And here 'tis: "Just like humans, horses have their defects.

Some of the defects spoil what might otherwise be a perfect show horse from its chance of taking prizes in the rings of big National shows such as our Treasure Island event, August 10 to 18, Inclusive. (Further interruption by A. Ward: To you, chum, all this may sound like a nice human interest yarn, but to me it has the suspicious ring of a heavy plug for your hoss exhibition.)

"He designed shoes of several shapes and tried them out, and it wasn't long before his experiments gained results and the horses wearing his iron footwear began to snatch blue ribbons. "Some he fitted with shors weighted on one side; some he gave bar shoes, others he equipped with sharp points on the flanges of the gear.

"Gradually the name of Harry Happ became known to all show horse owners In the country, until today no horse show of the Pacific Coast Is complete without Harry being there to shoe the ponies.

Is delaying consummation of an August 21 main event between Chick Delaney and Jackie Callura. Delaney Is holding out for a guar antee of. say. $300 but Promoter Tommy Simpson Is confident ha can make Chick see the light during the next couple of days.

The light In this particular Instance means acceptance of a percentage basis. Callura not only la ready to meet Delaney but is anxious for the setto. CALLURA WORKS HARD The New York featherweight who lost to Aurel Toma here principally because he wasn in good physical condition, has worked In the gymnasium with Delaney and provided plenty of trouble for the hard-hitting southpaw from San Leandro. Callura, with a few good meals under his belt and an abundance of gymnasium activity, purportedly is in prime shape for Delaney or any-one else of similar weight Simpson's earlier plans to back the Callura-Delaney fight with another 10-rounder have been abandoned. The veteran Impresario will tots a bunch of four rounders Into the preliminaries and trust to luck that from some of those battles attractions for future boxing shows will emerge.

FIEBERLING ON CARD Naturally Hal Fieberling, the green but promising Oakland heavy weight, will be on the program. Hal has won his two professional starts by knbekouts. Delaney's brief suspension, re sulting from excessively rough tactics in his recent match with tyo Rico, will end next Tuesday evening. Although Chick bruised Ms left paw, the one which carries his lethal punch, the maulle it healing rapidly and he'll be able to start training in a few days if he finally comes to terms with Simp son. That those terms will be accepted is almost a foregone conclusion.

Although the local arena will be dark this week, ring shows are slated for San Francisco and San Jose which means not a few of the more rapid Oakland fight fans will hop In their jallopies and travel miles to satisfy their fistic appetites.

It was there the legion gave him a spot in the infield. Chapman ran the opposition ragged when he appeared in the 1938 Rose Bowl game for California, which makes it interesting to note that his football coach at high school was Roy Riegals, the University of California star, who ran toward the wrong goal in the Rose Bowl some seasons ago. The most successful of ex-footballers to play in baseball was Charles Berry, All -American end from Lafayette, who caught big league pitchers for about six years and then retired to coach for the A's, He never made headlines though, but at this time to line up with Mack, Cobb and others root ers, Chapman seems like a sure thing.

And that Includes the performances of Fitzsim- mons, Corbett and Tunney.

IS MAN-SIZED JOB But Billy the Kid has a man's sized job on his hands Tuesday night when he climbs through the ropes against Pastor, the No. 1 heavyweight contender who was good enough to go 21 rounds with Louis. Though Pastor lacks Louis' punch, he is by far the best boxer in the heavy division an awkwardly clever fellow who has spoiled the title chances of many other promis ing contenders. This battle between the master boxers has split the fight crowd right down the middle, The 8-5 price favoring Conn does not truthfully reflect the sharp difference of opin ion among experts about this scrap. A poll of 25 managers and trainers reveals that 13 pick Pastor to win, 11 select Conn and one expects draw.

AT HEAVIEST WEIGHT Conn, who came into New York last night to conclude training at the Pioneer Gym after breaking camp at Grossinger Lake, N.Y.. has been scaling around 18C pounds, the heaviest in his career. Some ex perts consider the announced 180 pounds a phoney weight. They say Conn will come into the ring at 176. If he does, he will be at a disadvantage of about six pounds because Pastor will weigh about 182.

Pastor finished training today with two rounds of boxing at Still- man's Gym. Bicycle Bob was im pressive as he belted George Fitcn all over the ring. Pastor has con centrated on body punching in preparation for the Pittsburgh Phantom. He believes he can slow up Conn with right smashes to the heart I AROUND Del Mar Results FIRST HACK Valdlna Madam, McDermt M.SO 14.20 tSAO Tlcuna, R.
