THE CALGARY DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1938 Sports GREENBERG HITS 3 HOME RUNS Snead and Runyan Share Golf Lead Four Edmonton Race Fans Share Daily Double Pool, Getting $413.60 Apiece Ferrell Welcomed by New Teammates Racing Results U.S. Stars Record 69V For Total Scores of 136 In Canadian Open Tourney ft I VKw 4 'TV K-V PC i 1 I Hunter's Tigress And' Fountain Bring Big Pay-Of DUNCAN FINED Edmonton (Special) Four race fans received $413 60 each for coupling Hunter's Tigress and Fountain In the dally double at the Edmon ton track Friday afternoon. Hunter's tigress, which had not started since the fall of 1935 at Ca'gary, was the means of producing 'this large pay-off. Fountain was well sup ported in the betting. Hunter's Tigress found the hJy track to her liking and ran oler the pacemaklng Rise through the stretch.

Sable Gift set most of the pace In the third but was taken In the heavy going near the rail through the stretch and tired. The Stettler purse went to Sun Tryst in an easy fashion over Clear Sailing. The latter cut out the run ning but was no match for the winner when the real racing began, Pegllus waa the choice of the majority but, after racing close to the pace for seven furlongs, folded up when the final drive came. Carhan Kins Scores The elderly Carhan King scored In a thrilling finish at the end of the seven furlongs of the second Crowded back when with the lead ers at the first turn Carhan King did not start to run again until straightened out In the stretch but Corn brought him up with a rush and caught Prlnco Somcrs In the final stride. Prince Somers seemed a certain winner entering the stretch three lengths to the good Jockey Duncan, on Tabs Bid, was fined $25 for crowding Carhan King The 1936 Winnipeg Futurity win ner, Moores Gift, led all the way In the fourth.

She was tiring through the stretch, but Duncan held her together long enough to stall off Lady Aurcllus. Sky Orme came from behind to win easily in the sixth. Justa Jones opened a long lead after six fur longs but tired suddenly through the last furlong. Bon Shot gained a photo finish in the seventh after coming from fifth position at the last turn. Auto Mart showed nice race in leading all the way and was only nipped in tne very last stride.

The qulnella on the pair paid $31.90. It didn't take Wes Ferrell long to make a new connection when he was given his outright lease by Washington Senators. A ten-year man In the majors, he was free to peddle himself wherever ho could and how he peddled! Right into what looks like a certain world series cheque! The temperamental hurler signed up with New York's rampaging Yankees and he should add plenty to the 13 wins he has already posted this season, while with the Nats. Here is the new Yankee being greeted by elugglng Joe DiMacclo. left, while two fellow pitchers look on.

A few weeks ago Arsenal paid Wolves about $65,000 for the transfer of Bryn Jones, Welsh international forward.

All that Jones got out of the deal was $60 for signing for Arsenal, and about $3,250 from Wolves in lieu of benefit if he had been with them five years, and less If he had not that length of service. Any player that can command such a transfer fee should have at least half of the amount turned over to him. OOO May the best team win tonight's game, and that one be ours. AGAINST BROWNS Tigers Take Two To Advance Game From Fourth Place YANKEES GAIN By (ID FEDER (Anocllted Praia Sport, Wrllar) They've plugged up the hole In Hank Oreenberg'i bat, and the big fellow la firing at Babe Ruth's record of 60 homera in one year. St.

Louie Browns' pitchers rolled Into Detroit and showed Hank the hole In his stick, Hank promptly plugged It up and busted five choice offerings of the Brownie fllngers out of the park In two days to bring his season four-base total to 41. Three of these round-trip tickets came yesterday as the Tigers clicked for a double-header victory, 8-7 and 7-4, and accounted for eight of the 15 Detroit runs. Net result of Hank's fireworks was to boost him considerably in front of Ruth's record again. His third of the afternoon yesterday came In the Tigers' 109th game of the season (108th If you omit one tie). Ruth didn't clout his 41st in 1927 until his 123rd game, and had only 36 at his 109th.

Near Fourth Place The double win yesterday also boosted the Tigers to within a game of fourth place In the American Jieague standings, since Washing-Eton's Senators dropped a 4-3 10-innlng decision to Boston Red Sox. Jimmy Foxx, that other home-run specialist, whacked his 38th. The league leading Yankees whipped the Athletics 5-2 to climb 10 games In front In the junior circuit race. The second place Cleveland Indians were soundly thumped, 7-2, by Chicago White Sox. With the National League-leading Pittsburgh Pirates Idle, the Giants took advantage of the opportunity to pick up half-a-game by beating the Phillies 4-2.

This left Bill Terry's outfit 4 games off the pace. Brooklyn Dodgers nipped Boston Bees 1-0 in an 11-lnning night tilt, to climb Into a tie for fifth place. Carl Hubbell Out for Season By PAUL MICKELSON Aftociated Pren Soorti Writr) New York Colonel Will Terry fcnd his once starry-pyed Giants yesterday resembled a group of hungry men In the breadline, their "meal ticket," Carl Hubbell, marked void for the rest of the year, and possibly for good. Hubbell, victim of a strange, crippling arm injury just when the club needed him at his best to overhaul Pittsburgh Pirates, took it hard, too. But except to say hi great arm naa iroumea mm otf and on even through his great years of 1936 and '37 and that he had every hope his career was far from finished, Hub said nothing.

After a conference yesterday morning, the screw-ball master tidied his locker and prepared to fly to Memphis to consult Dr. Justin Spencer Speed, arm and bone specialist. Unknown Ailment No one knows for sure just what Hub's ailment is. It may be a chipped elbow, a twisted or shattered tendon, or his great arm may be Just worn out after 16 years of throwing, 11 of them In big time. The pain Is centred on the inner Bide of the left arm.

Hub complains he's unable to lift or drop his arm at times. There's no swelling. His revelation he was bothered In "36 and '37 surprised Manager Terry and everyone except his old battery mate, Gus Mancuso, who said he detected something was wrong with Hub even when he hurled his greatest games and brought the Giants pay dirt by pulling them Into two straight world series. "I remember one day when Hub Bhut Out the Cuba in an Important game," said Gus. "He was greater than ever that day, but about once every eight pitches he seemed to wince and throw a ball that had nothing on It.

Several times I've gone out to ask him what was wrong but Hub would start talking about something a hitter or a runner." Terry Optimistic Colonel Terry was "Optimistic. "Right now I'm not counting on Hub this year. It's never been my poliey to ruin a ball player for one pennant and I don't plan to change my policy. I'd rather have Hub back next year In all his glory than to have a new pennant swing from the flag Scores by Innings NATIONAL i Philadelphia (110 100 000 2 4 0 Sw York 101 002 OOx 4 10 2 Passeau, Hallahan.

Harry Cooper Sets New Course Record Of 66 STROKE BEHIND Toronto (CP) At the pace he Is shooting In the Canadian open golf championship, Globe-Trotting Walter Hagen will be lucky if he finishes In the first 10. And the Halg Is scoring better than at any time since he got back recently from a world tour.

It won't be his fault if he Isn't near the top blame it on fellows like Sam Snead, Paul Runyan and Harry Cooper. Walter can recall winning this championship on the same Mlssissauga layout, in 1931 with a 72-hole score of 292. Today, with 36 holes to go, his record shows 71-74145. That Is a little under his 1931 average and Hagen is merely nine strokes off the blazing pace set by Slammln' Sam and little Paul, with Light- horse Harry In hot pursuit. Snead and Runyan tied for sec ond place with 69's to share the lead at the 36-hoIo mark with scores of 136.

Cooper, defending champion, then set a new course record of 66 and bounced into third place with a total of 137. Two Tie for Top Honors at Traps Dr. Mclntyre and George Harris Deadlock in Feature Event After a ding-dong battle for feature event honor, Dr. R. R.

Mcln tyre and George Harris, dead locked with 47 out of 50 at the Calgary Gun Club, yesterday. In the first half, "Doc scored 23, one better than Harris, but in the second George rallied with 25 straight' to tie the count. Having twice scored better than 90 per cent, Harris is now qualified to compete In Class AA. Tied with three-time winners, Mclntyre an nexed the silverware in Class A. With handicaps added, Art Smith and Art Hughes both marked up gross possible In Class B.

Hughes, who has already won on this class three times, conceded the trophy to Smith. Takes Wide Lead At the skcet trap, Don Blow pul verized 24 consecutive targets after missing his first to take a commanding lead. Art Hughes was second with 19, closely followed by F. M. Owens of Edmonton and J.

F. Harvle who broke 18 out of 25. Smashing 20 out of 25, "Stoney" Christie and Art Hughe led the closely-contested event. Crowding the leaders all the way, "Doc" Mclntyre finished with 19 and George Harris was not far behind with 18. Trap scores (out of 50); Class AA D- Blow 22 2446 Class A R.

Ford captured the low net prize in the handicap event staged by the ladles' section of the Calgary Golf and Country Club, It was announced today. Only two players, Ronnie Mac-Williams and Kemp Richardson, have any further Interest In the Lions 'Club tournament for the blind and Ronnie' has considerably more than Kemp. In the first half of the tournament last week-end MacWIlliams finished with a 147 total to lead Richardson, his nearest rival, by six strokes. A brilliant 71 In the first round by MacWIlliams was the feature of the day. A howling wind Bwept down from the north and rain-laden clouds menaced the golfers all day.

But It wasn't the wind that bothered the players so much as the greens which received a soaking the night before. The sporty Bownesa course, where the tournament Is being played, is reputed to be one of the toughest layouts In Calgary. No one will argue against that, particularly if they are a little erratic off the tee and have a great deal or respect for the trees that line the sides of the valleys. But for the player who Is driving reasonably straight and playing his irons well, it should be just as easy to negotiate as any other course in town. After the first round Ronnie MacWilliams said the course was tougher because It was about 400 yards longer than most of the other local clubs.

We are willing to concede that point, but to offset the additional length, the par is two strokes more than the others. There seems to be one answer the mental attitude of the player when he stands on the tee before driving and views the trees to the right, the trees to the left and the trees all around him. Those trees and deep gullcys are what send the scores sky high. The player is handicapped before he hits the ball by these mental hazards and invariably tries to steer the ball onto the green instead of hitting Jt there. Local players are warned to minimize their profanity and to be on their best behavior these days, for policemen and detectives disguised as golfers are Invading the courses practicing up for their tournament at the Highlands Club in Edmonton August 26 end 27.

This week Malcolm Boyd, Billy Kemp, Jimmy Munroe and Bruce Benson have been seen frequently at the Regal tuning up their game. Bill McRae is receiving a few tips from Jack Cuthbert and is becoming familiar with grass greens at the Country Club. Earl Grey course is a picture worth seeing. In contrast to the dried up fairways lined with huge cracks in 1936, the course is green and spongy and the grass is becoming thicker each week. That Is the result of watering for only two years and members are now looking forward to the day when they will be pitching to grass greens.

The greens are In good shape at present. Under the supervision of Bobby Mills, professional, the was treated with boiled oil this week. Gordon Cameron, the Earl Grey player who bought three drivers before he found one that suited him and subsequently knocked about ten strokes from his score, Is still going strong, according to reports. Gordon shot an 80 at Banff recently, which is equivalent to about 75 In Calgary. The thing that is puzzling Mr.

Cameron at the present time Is how Jimmy Hill got out of the trees at the Cauldron. 0 Calgary's future champions are a hardy bunch of lads. Thirty-three enthusiastically teed off in the rain at Bowness Club in the city juvenile championship on Thursday and although the moisture kept falling throughout the day, they refused to take shelter and tramped around 27 holes. Bill Talt and C. Anderson reached the final yesterday and will match ahots for the title today.

Henry Cotton assumed the hero role in a four-ball test that waa described In the News of the World as "The most historic match of the century." Selecting Reginald Whitcombe as hie partner, the former open champion accepted the challenge of Sid Brews and Bobby Locke, South African stars, for a prize of 500. More than 15,000 spectators saw four rounds of superlative golf with the score swaying from one side to the other, Britain waa one up at the end of the first round; South Africa, with Locke carding a brilliant 63, led two up at the half-way mark; Britain led one up at the three-quarter mark and South Africa was one up on the home stretch. The match was fast drawing to a close when Cotton and Whitcombe put their heads together and maped out a plan. It was the 12th hole on the Walton Heath course a dog's leg 370 yards long, with a knee deep jungle between the tee and the green. The plan they decided upon was for Whitcombe to play orthodox golf around the bend and Cotton to gamble on carrying the heather and bracken.

Their strategy worked. Cotton cooly laced out a towering drive of 310 yards and the ball came to rest a few yards from the apron of the green. His birdie three squared the match and Whitcombe won the next two holes. The Britons held their advantage to win the match 2 and 1. It was'a dramatic finish to a great match, which saw Cotton dr iving from 350 to 370 yards.

His partner, the present British open champion, was steady and came through when needed most. Continued From Page Six Soccer Chatter ball field, as well as a successful referee, left for Scotland on Wednesday, where no doubt he will take In some of the big league games there. During the. past season nothing pleased Johnny more than refereeing games in the juvenile league, and his words of advice on mistakes made during a game made him very popular with the lads in the juvenile division. 0 0 0 Bill Flndler, Qne of this year's Dominion soccer championship team, is a former Edmonton player.

When in the capital city Bill was noted for his deadly shooting at goal. Yet when presented with a golden opportunity of winning the series against Dome Mines from a penalty shot, he failed miserably, It would appear as though Trevor Harvey, the big centre half of North Shore United, Is a mascot to coast teams seeking Dominion honors. Three years in succession Trev. has been on the winning side, first with New Westminster Royals, last year with Johnston Nationals, and this year with United. We could do with a few players like that here.

By some means or other word had reached Winnipeg that the United had practically annihilated Callles on the latter's visit to the coast, so United Weston started to hand the coast lads a little of the same medicine. Had North Shore proved to be the kind of players reported, the western final series might have resembled a Donnybrook Fair. Instead the coast team played clean football with the satisfaction of winning the series, while United Weston had one of its most prominent players ordered off the field. North Shore gave high praise to Dome mines on their standard of football. The players were older than the coast team, more experienced, very fast and clever with the ball, and a difficult side to beat.

They said United Weston's methods were very crude compared to those of the Ontario players. 0 0 0 United, who passed through Calgary Friday morning en route home had also a good word to say regarding Jimmy Gilhooley'g refereeing. To take charge of six gamea In a row, with ao much at stake, is a tough proposition. There was scoring with a vengeance in last Saturday's opening games of the Scottish soccer season. Fifty-six goals were registered in ten games in the first division, and fifty-five in nine In the second.

Looks as though some of the play-era were playing for their places. Jimmy McGrory rendered great service to Glasgow Celtic during his playing career, but since he went to manage Kilmarnock the Irishmen have handed the Killies two of the worst defeats of their career. In between Jimmy's lads knocked the Celts out of the cup. Although the English soccer season does not officially open till next Saturday, all of the 88 clubs of the four divisions were engaged today, with the Idea of creating a golden Jubilee trust fund of nearly half a million dollars.
