O. A Drama Unfolded Yanks Come Up With New Catcher Rollicking Rollie Hemsley Signed As Bud Rosar Quits To Join Police BY GAYLE TALBOT CHICAGO (JP) Not since golf I began has there been anything even remotely resembling seven days of historical clubswinging which began Monday at a somewhat fabulous course here called the Tam OShanter Club, operated by an equally fabulous character named George S. May. Right through until next Sunday night the nation's leading amateur and professional golfers are going to be toiling around Tam OShan-1 ters sprawling acres, settling so many different championships and competing for so many different trophies and prizes that probably only May, himself, knows the exact score. He claims he does, at any rate.

"Don't worry, confides the man who thought up golfs great combined circus and medicine show, We've got it all worked out. We not only will have a Tam OShanter I Pen champion and a Tam ter amateur champion before this is over, but well also have a Tam OShanter glamor king. Furthermore, well have a crowd of 40,000 i out here next Sunday. A couple of hundred amateurs began playing the first of two qualifying rounds Monday morning. They will play another qualifying round Tuesday and the low 64 scorers will be eligible for match i play starting on Wednesday.

The money boys on Wednesday I will have a qualifying round, them-1 selves, for those who are not auto- matically eligible to compete in the I 72-hole Open Tournament starting I on Thursday.

Johnny Riddles Barons blew a chance to move into the first division Sunday when they dropped two games to Those Vols. The fatal figures were 11 to 10 and 10 to 1. The first one was a bitter loss to the Barons. Harry Matuzak was breezing along until the eighth and had a fat margin. Then all of a sudden he lost control and was yanked with two out.

Rocky Stone came to his aid but it was like throwing a chain around the body of a drowning man. Rocky was rapped for two blows which sealed the Slagtowners fate. Matuzak had made only two mistakes up until the eighth, the first one was in the fourth when he gave Gus Dugas a pitch he slapped out of the park for his 16th home run. The other was in the fifth when he laid a fast one letter high to Charley English. It was last seen fading over the distant leftfield barrier.

The two licks netted five runs. Mike ScHultzs wildness led to his downfall in the second game. He scattered a hit to an inning until the fifth when Those Vols bunched five for six runs to make a run-away of the contest. Chief Wahoo Eaves started the first game. The Barons appreciated him, too, for they arrived almost two hours late and the only batting practice they got was against Eaves and Ed Malone, his successor.

Malone hurled good ball in all but one round. Charley Gassaway worked the ninth and was nicked for two hits and as many runs. Dutch McCall limited the Barons to four hits, one an infield tap and another a misjudged fly that gave the visitors their own run. Mike Dejan hammered home runs, his 10th and 11th of the year, over the rightfield wall in the opener. They accounted for three tallies.

Lon Goldstein socked his eighth and Charley English, who drove in eight runs with six hits, connected for his 10th. Sensational fielding by Johnny Mihalic and Charlie Brewster handicapped the Barons. Dejan's first four-bagger of the afternoon started the Barons iff in front in the second heat of the opener. Matuzak, Gamble and Conway fired successive doubles in the third. Dejan climaxed the inning with his second wall-wallop, this time hitting almost on top of the ice house.

These four blows produced four runs. Goldstein opened the fourth with a liner that barely cleared the screen and that was all for the Chief. pounded out five blows in trips to the plate for a .714 average in the Yanks twin triumphs over the White Sox. McCarthy said that Rosar had asked twice during the past week for permission to take the i ination at Buffalo but that he had denied it because of the shoulder injury to Bill Dickey, the club's I first string receiver. Rosar was quoted as saying, Im I going anyway after the last refusal.

At Buffalo, he said that his actions were a sane desire for protection. Baseball is my meat and drink now but no one can say when I Ill go out there and meet with an accident that might end my base-I ball days.

WASHINGTON Eric McNair, traded to Washington Senators by Detroit, announced his retirement from big league baseball. NEW ORK (P) Francisco Segura, two-fisted South American, defeated Ted Schroeder, of Glendale, 7-5, 6-3, 4-6, 6-2, in the final round of the Eastern Clay Court Tennis Tournament Sunday for his sixth championship in 10 attempts this year. Seguras two-handed drives down the sidelines kept Schroeder on the defensive throughout and afforded the Californian few opportunities to move in close. While Seguras emphasis was on speed, he threw in an occasional dropshot to add to Schroeders discomfiture. The Ecuadorean eased up perceptibly in the third set.

From almost a stationary position on the base line he sent deep shots to on knocking each other off in match play. But at the same and identical time they will be competing in the open, or medal play championship, along with the professionals.

Jimmy Dykes, manager of the Sox, protested the first game, charging that the New Yorkers had 26 players on their roster. Ed Bar-row, president of the Yanks, said, however, that Kearse was released the fight promoter who had the unhappy experience of a well-padded payroll of fighters and a very emaciated gate for one of his shows.
