1 With quits a number yet to qualify for ths annual golf tournament by Monday, already 43 have entered and turned In their qualifying scores. Bereral mors OpeUka and Auburn players will enter before Monday. Matches must be played not later than Aug. It and a barbecue and dance will be held at ths County Club hers Tues- HIGH BONE-POPPING PACHYDERMS COMING Something new and entirely different is about to stroll into the local sports arena. Great big, bone-crushing and, butting "rasslers" are 'about to be imported to show cause why record crowds in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Spokane and Timbuctoo are turning out to see the new means of inflicting punishment In athletic combat.

Active steps are being taken to initiate the Montgomery public to the grunt and growl profession. New interests, well-known and fair-shooting promoters are behind the move to pack in the customers at the City Auditorium. Of course this doesn't alter the fact that "rassling" will always be a "flop." No matter how the boys win their matches, somebody must be There Is something peculiar about the sport. Scheming matmen have studied ways and means of manhandling each other. They've engineered the airplane flop, the billygcat lock and other murderous holds to startle the paying public There was a time when they only bit, clawed and slugged each other into near unconsciousness.

Now they tie them in knots, put sacks over their heads and heave them into the sea of humans that pay to see the riot. The only truth about the business is that there Is no such thing as a champien wrestler these days. When you take a six on a par four iole check up on your shots and see where the trouble is. Three times out of five you are just a few yards from the green in two strokes. This means that nearly 70 per cent of your golf is being used up near the carpet.

Faulty approaching and poor putting are responsible for at least 75 per cent of the so-called dobbers, Iron shots are difficult to master because golfers do not practice the shot, a pure and simple shot that brings Into play nothing but the wrists. Full iron shot are played by the 30 per cent when a half-shot Is all that Is needed, Dubs pull their iron shots more frequently than they do their woods because the right hand is held too tightly on the shaft. Tighten up on the left hand and hit with it When coming back with an Iron see to It that the right elbow Is rating en the right hip, aorta pivoting there. It's got te be kept in close If the shot Is made correctly, Stand comfortably with the weight slightly on the left leg for iron shots in order that you will have something to hit against. Flaying an Iran shot off the left foot Is suicidal, no matter how expertly you handle the elub on the In and out swing.

By doing this yoa have a tendency to eat across the ball. No golfer ever landed in an Important first flight without thinking out his shots. Ne golfer win ever get down In the 80's without practicing. No golfer is so good that he cant Improve. Totals 37 13 27 17TotaIs 40 It 37 13 Batted for Shaute In 7th.

STEPHENSON While the Gadget, official launch for today's program of outboard battles at Lake Jordan, lay at anchor, dozens of tiny racing craft hurled their challenges in tune-up tests yesterday afternoon In a veritable war of speed on the water. Flying the colors of all nations from her rigging, the trim Gadget took the wash as her commander pronounced everything in ship-shape for the water carnival at Andersen's Camp, beginning at 1Q o'clock this morning. Blue smoke from the roaring motors hovered -over the beautiful sweep of backwater from Lock 18 as the speed boats 8kipted over the placid race course, but a halt was called to the proceedings when a driving rain out cf the Northeast peppered the pilots and ob scured their vision after about an hour's warming up.

While considerable interest centers around the Class and events, which will find many of the most daring drivers in the State vieing for the cash awards, the free-for-all marathon will attract the largest field. The lure also is greater and all classes of craft will be entered. Screwing his 35-horsepower Quad motor to his four-passenger outboard for a warm-up spin, Leslie Samuel, raced away with two passengers and announced that he was ready for the test. He will mount his powerful motor on his trim shell "P'Wee" for the marathon test of 50 miles. The marathon will be run In three beats, each heat being about 15 miles.

Speeding "Twenty Grand" around the course from Lake Region Club to Anderson's Camp, John Britton seemed to be satisfied with his chances in the free-for-all event. Noble Crump also had his "Streak" out late in the afternoon. Tom McGough, and Frank McGough, who have some cf the finest racing boats and motors In the country, are set for the Class and events. They will test their skill and craft against a strong challenge from Birmingham. The Magic City stars will represent the Drennen Motor Company and the Masters Motor Company.

Ten boats will be entered by these companies. Hugh Gardner, piloting a fast-moving boat of the Dixie Electric Company, Is expected to vie for some of the prizes. His craft showed up well in the trial spins yesterday. U. S.

Kilmer's Speeder Wins Arlington Handicap, Setting New Purse Record- ARLINGTON TRACK, CHICAGO, Aug. i.W) Sun Beau is the new champion. The big six-year-old son of Sun Briar-Beautiful Lady, bred and owned by Willie Sharpe Kilmer, Binghamton, N. became the greatest money winner on the international turf today, dethroning Gallant Fox. Bun Beau, by winning ths Arlington Handicap, stretched his grand total in five years of turf campaigning to exceeding by $1,879 the $328,165 earned by Gallant Fox before his retirement last year.

Gallant Fox was shoved into second place in the list of 13 golden winners, while Zev, a sensation in 1923, dropped to third place with $313,639. Sun Beau's impressive victory climaxed Arlington Park's brilliant 30-day racing season. The gross value of the Arling ton Handicap was $34,350, of which $27,300 went to the proud owned of Sun Beau. The new champion won the race dra matically and as he pleased. He galloped to victory by three lengths over the mile and a quarter route in 2:03 1-5 on a track that was a trifle dull.

Satin Spar, owned by Willard Mack, the playwright, was second, and Plucky Play third in the field of seven. Ten were named to start but the field was reduced by the withdrawal of Gallant Knight, Minotaur and The Nut. Satin Spar bounded Into the lead when the barrier was sprung, with I'lucky Play In close pursuit and Sun Beau off in third place.
