While the Rainbows failed to fx ft CLUBHOUSE CELEBRATION if A i 1 r'. Arthur Armstrong for the Hawaiian Amateur golf championship at the Oahu Country Club, he displayed not only superb ability on the links, but also rare courage and determination better known in sports circles as "guts." Armstrong is without doubt one of the greatest golfers to be developed in the islands and to triumph over him is a brilliant feat in itself. Furthermore, to overcome a formidable lead held by him and go on to trounce him in a title match is something that is not always done by anyone locally.

But Ukauka did exactly that and annexed, the amateur crown for the second successive year. It is characteristic of Ukauka to keep "fighting" until the last putt has been holed out. He has shown his courage repeatedly. But his greatest exhibition of Intestinal fortitude came during the recent National Amateur championship at the Pebble Beach course at Del Monte, California. lie was bothered by a nerve condition in his eyes when the tournament got under way.

A San Francisco doctor, whom he consulted, advised him not to play because of his failing eyesight. But he chose to enter the competition. He was under a terrific handicap. Save his uncle, George Hane-berg, and his caddy who advised him on the lay of the course, the distance, and the breaks on the greens, hardly anyone knew of his condition. Ukauka was hitting the ball so well and putting so accurately that even Arthur Armstrong who followed him during the first few holes of his first round match did not realize the strain under which he was playing.

"Jimmy played brilliant golf during the time I followed him and I didn't know he was being troubled with his eyes," Armstrong said following his return here. Jimmy kept his agony to himself. Typical of him, he would not seek the sympathy of anyone. He struggled along the difficult California course courageously. For the first four holes he was three under par.

But on the fifth hole, he went into the traps and after that he couldn't recover his game. Meanwhile, his opponent, who finally won by 5 and 3, began shooting hot golf. a Ukauka had a fine caddy and he helped him all through the match. He picked out his clubs for him and Jimmy played according to the information his caddy gave. him.

Ukauka returned from the coast earlier this week and is now under treatment by a local doctor. Armstrong, in recounting his own experience at the Pebble Beach layout, said it was the toughest course he has ever played. The fairways had been narrowed down with the extension of the roughs and to add to the misery of the golfers, the course is built on rolling grounds, according to Armstrong. Armstrong further said that practically every green is on a slope. Talking about his match with Bob Cochran of St.

Louis, who beat him on the 20th hole, Armstrong said that he played fair enoueh golf, but his opponent putted miraculously. Armstrong would have a birdie or a par, but invariably, Cochran would come back and halve him, with spectacular putting, downhill or otherwise. "Cochran simply couldn't be beaten," Armstrong said. The New York Yankees held a clubhouse when they clinched the American League championship.

Louisville, Kentucky Down Bucs 4-2; Cards Are Beaten Johnny Mize Hits Two Homers, Threatens Wilson's Mark By CARL LUNDQUIST NEW YORK, Sept. 18 (UP) The Brooklyn Dodgers, driving full speed ahead toward a world series date with the New York Yankees, moved to within two games of clinching the National League pennant tonight when they downed the Pirates at Pittsburgh, 4 to 2, as the Cardinals lost their fifth straight game, 10 to 8, to the Boston Braves. Manager Burt Shotton of the Bvodgers, gambling on Hal Gregg who had won only three games all season, saw the strategy pay off when the hard-throwing righthander held the Bucs to six scattered hits.

Jackie Robinson started the Dodgers off to victory by hitting his 11th homer of the year in the fourth while Don Lund, rookie up from St. Paul, hit his second homer since joining the club in the sixth. Hank Behrman, who was turned back to the Dodgers after he failed to make good at Pittsburgh in the aftermath of an early season deal, turned on the Pirates and saved Gregg's game with some brilliant pinch-pitching in the two final innings. The Braves, getting off to a 7 to 0 lead, outlasted the Cardinals and moved to within ZlA games of second place at St. Louis.

Phil Masi's grand slam double and a single by Connie Ryan accounted for four runs in the third, while Carvei (Bama) Rowell's three-run homer made it 7-0 in the fourth. Al Gettel scattered six hits to win his 11th game for the Indians, 7 to 8, at Washington. Cleveland settled matters in the sixth when five runs came across on a walk and five hits. Joltin' John Mize, who virtually has given up hope of topping Babe Ruth's all-time home run record of 60 for a season, closed in today instead on Hack Wilson's National League mark of 56, hitting his 48th and 49th homers as the Giants split a doubleheader at Chicago. Mize, who would have to hit a homer in each of the 11 remaining Giant contests even to tie Ruth's mark, is now nine games behind the Babe's 1927 record.

In that year, Ruth hit his 49th homer in his 134th game, while Mize got his today in the 143rd that the Giants have played. Topping: the 1930 National league mark set by Wilson with the Cubs would mean that Mize would have to tret eight homers in 11 games, a most unlikely though not impossible feat. The two blasts today enabled him to pull even again with Ralph Kiner, the sophomore sensation of the Pirates, who got his 49th late last week. The Giants scored al6-hit, 9 to victory in the first game, but the Cubs came back to win a weird battle in the second game, 12 to 10, when Bill (Swish) Nicholson broke things up with a two-run homer in the ninth. The Giants made a great stand in the plinth inning of the night- continued on Page; 16) Golden Glovers Leave For N.Y.

17 (UP) ThejNew York Football Giants, sluggish and ineffectual for two periods, solved Bob "sleight of hand" wizardry in the second half tonight and went on to trample the Los Angeles Rams, 30 to 3 before 28,834 fans in a preseason exhibition game at the Polo Grounds. Waterfield's deft ball-handling kept the Rams on even terms in the first period and despite Ken Strong's 19-yard field goal early in the second quarter, Los Angeles still appeared stronger. Individual star in the Giant triumph was rookie Jerry Niles, former Iowa who tossed two touchdown passes to George Franck and galloped 23 yards in the last quarter for another tally. Niles' first pay-off pitch traveled 15 yards and his second 28 yards. The husky youngster from East Moline, 111., carried the Giant attack single-handedly for a large part of the contest.

Halfback Dave Brown set up the Giants other tally in the final period when he intercepted a Wa terfield pass on the Rams 43-yard marker and came back to the ene my 17.
