"Sud Wilson, Abilene banker, also qualified with a 74 last Sunday. I HAMMETT IS HOT J. Hammett, the hefty hitting youngster from Rising Star, served notice that he'll be hard to handle by warming up with a subpar 70.

Hammett was runner-up last week to Iverson Martin of Fort Worth in the West Texas Golf Associa- i tion tournament at Fort Worth. Martin and Royal Hogan, Fort Worth city champion, are expected here this morning. The Dallas delegation includes Bill Skeeters, Jimmy Goldman, Spec's younger brother, Earl Stewart and Reuben Albaugh. Skeeters knows the local course since he played here three years ago, the summer he advanced to the finals in the Texas amateur. It's the 'first trip to Abilene for Goldman and Stewart.

Stewart, incidentally, is the lad who won the state inter- i scholastic golf title in 1936 and 1937. The tournament also attracted 17' year-old Bed Rodea of Glen Rose, the Cinderella kid who ousted Billy Bob Cof ey of Fort Worth in the 'first round at the West Texas last week, Roden took 77 blows in getting around the course for the first time "yesterday.

The golfers, the netters, the swimmers, and headlintrs In kindred hot weather sports ail get their share of the play in the public prints. Which is as it should be.

But fan and King Football are just around the corner, and before the mail gets cluttered as. public relations counselors, publicity directors and a few mere "press agents" oil the mimeographs for the issuance of deluges of "releases" on behalf of various supermen, let's consider the case of BULLDOG TURNER. Bulldog Turner, varsity center of the Hardin Simmons university Cowboys, here in Abilene, is no su- permani but he stands 6 feet 2, weiglis 215, runs tne hundred in uniform in 11.2, and "doesn't know his own strength." Christened Clyde, he was 20 last March. Bulldog's a cowpuncher in the truest, not the fiction or the drug store sense of the word, from a Scurry county ranch near Sweetwater, in the heart of West Texas Hereford country. A smashing, driving, roving, fearless defensive game, in which he apparently does the right thing by instinct, earned Bulldog an awesome record last year, his first as a regular.

An opposing team mentor, to quote Charles Burton the Dallas News, said: "The Bulldog is the best center I've seen this year except Aldrich at TCU. He is a whale of a defensive player on either ground or aerial plays, and he can go on the too." Prexy Anderson, for years sports editor of the Abilene Reporter- News, who has called many an accurate turn in the West Texas Oil Belt, incubator of stars, made no exception. After the season's finale, said: "Bulldog's performance was as classy as any this reporter inspected in '38, including the double-O t-c Ki Aldrich. Ki is no slouch, if you haven't heard." With highest regard for TCU's All America pivot, a mentor who has coached more than one Texas grid champion, said: "Bulldog can play where even the great Aldrich would pay to get in to see." When Jimmy Laughead, ace AP photographer for the Southwest, visited last fall's training camp, and asked the squad in general, "Who's the star of this outfit?" it was Bulldog, who never heard of hiding a candle under a bushel, who stepped out to say, "I guess you mean me." The Laughead-AP classic gag shot, with the Bulldog toting a 240' pound calf around the place, used nationally last fall, was the result. Bulldog had not earned his spurs as start at that stage of didn't until the third game of the fall, after which his growing brilliance relegated Eddie Bigelow to the ranks of a non- playing co-captain.

At the end of the.year, the AP nosed him out of the Little All. America center berth because of the iron man "three seasons without missing a down" record of John Horton, of Morehead College, Kentucky. Gathering momentum each year, Bulldog Turner was just 16 when he finished his eligibility with the Sweetwater Mustangs. A gangling kid, his possibilities were overlooked by major scouts, and he wandered into the nearby camp of the Hardin-Simmons Cowboys, less publicized neighbor school. At H-ETJ, his ability, with maturing years, has cut a steadily wider swaths through the ranks of opponents.

Past for a 15-pound, 6 feet 2- inch lineman, Bulldog does the 100 yards, goal line to goal line, in cleats on the turf, in 11.2. Take the testimonial from Head Coach Prank "Slow to Enthuse" Kimbrough. "Bulldog Turner ist he best center rve ever coached. He is the best man I've ever coached at any position. He comes nearer to doing everything right than any many I've coached," said his tutor.

To give his testimony authority, the past four years at H-SU Frank Kimbrough's elevens have won 31, lost 7, and tied 2 for a percentage of .815. Only defeats, in threeycars were to Texas A. 'and SMU's Rose Bowl team, Baylor and Texas Tech. And to centenary and San Francisco last year. This year, starting -with an unbroken run of seven wins, the Cowboys must topple Centenary, San Francisco and Loyola, a trio of Border Conference schools in Texas College of Mines; New Mexico A.

and M. and Arizona State college of Tempe, to keep the Kimbrough slate clean. To say Nothing of Howard Payne, St. Edward U. and West 'Texas State.

A squad of 13 letter men, 13 squad men and a dozen upcoming sophomores will report for drills on September 4. Kirk McKinnon, senior pilot, junior backs Owen Goodnight, W. J. "'Big Indian" Ford and Moon -Mullins, plus Sophomores Murray Evans and Lloyd Flahie are counted oh to operate behind the forward wall which Bulldog Turner sparks to turn the trick. Jl Apaches Down Midland, 9 to 1 Abetted by the brilliant pitching of Howard Parks, the Abilene Apaches clinched.

seventh place in the final West Texas-New Mexico league standing here last night. The final count was 9 to 1 as the Tribe frolicked to an easy win over the Midland Cowboys. In rare form Parks mixed his sharp breaking curve with a fair Midland and Abilene will close the first half with a single game tonight. Manager Jimmy Morris oC the Apaches announced last night that John Tysko, the gangling Polish fast bailer; would pitch for locals. High School Cage Oppose Boards DENTON, June Texas High School Basketball Coaches association today unanimously went on record against the new convex basketball oackboard which has been on display here at the cage clinic and coaching school.

The vote of the group will be to the national rules committee which Is conducting a nation-wide poll of coaching schools the questions. aakt gf Ihi objee- fast one to strike cut 13 of the visitors. The only Midland tally was a- home run blasted by Bob Everson in the ninth. The drive was over the center field fence.

Willie Brown, the Midland pitcher, hurled creditable ball. Errors by himself and his mates, however, ruined the performance. The first seven Abilene runs were unearned. SCORE ON ERRORS The locals capitalized on Brown's wild throw in the third for their first two runs. With Lefty Danner and Emie Potocar on base, Parks bunted straight to the pitcher.

Brown threw past third attempting to get the head runner, permitting both Danner and Potocar to tally. The next two batters were retired on easy taps. Successive errors in the fourth cost Midland five runs. Second baseman Saparito kicked Danner's smash into right field, allowing Pat Bell and Manager Jim Morris to score. Danner went to third on the play.

Potocar, in sending home the sixth run of the night, got Abilene's first run batted in. Potocar and Parks, who was safe on a fielder's choice, scored on Barney Barnhill's single to left. Kirby Jordan, the home run hitter from the East Texas league, smashed his second round tripper in as many nights in the sixth inning with none on. The blow was a towering fly that cleared the right field fence with plenty to spare. Lefty Danner, little Abilene outfielder, "playing with a Charley horse, reached first on every appearance at the plate.

Twice he drove out singles while on two occasions he was safe on bobbles. Potocar also hit cleanly twice.

2.0224 JACK DEMPSEY'S CONDITH NEW YORK, June still weak and sick from an emergency appendectomy performed last night, former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey appeared well started on the road to recovery tonight. The old mauler; who was stricken with what he termed a "regular Dempsey family stomach-ache" while playing cards with friends, was able to summon a smile and shake hands with his secretary, NV Brown, -when the latter visited him at Polyclinic hospital this afternoon.
