Thereafter both pitchers were Invincible with Schumacher allowing only two more hits before he yielded to a pinch hitter in the eighth. It was Passeau's seventh victory of the season.

(NEA) Now that Jimmy Wilson ha given up on Louis Novikoff and ordered him optioned to the Milwaukee Brew ers, the Mad Russian may De labelled "The Big Bust." Lou Novikoff led every circuit in which he played in batting, but trick pitching has proved too much for him in the National league. You can't hit the ball when you can't follow it. In addition to being a flop at the plate, Novikoff Is far irom being a DiMagglo as a ball hawK and an Inaccurate arm of very ordinary strengtn swings irom his right shoulder. Novikoff was highly ballyhooed when he reported to the Chicagos in the spring.

Take a peek at his batting record with Los Angeles in 1940: 44 doubles, 41 homers, 259 hits, 438 in total bases, 147 runs. While it was taking it out of one pocket and putting it in another, the Cubs were said to have given their Los Angeles farm or some such amount for the Lou-Lou Novikoff and Second Sacker Stringer. Tipoff on Novikoff came in the spring exhibition series with the White Sox and Athletics. In the Cubs' 14 games with the Pale Hose, the compactly con structed retriever batted a smacking .137. He got nowhere in a jury against Philadelphia pitching, supposed to be about as puzzling as a radio quiz.

It was explained that Novikoff was a late starter, but here he is hitting no more than .240 with more than one-third of the season gone. He has had to be benched two or three times for repeated failure to get the good part of the bat in front of the ball. Novikoff probably sensed that the majors were something else again when old Ted Lyons fed the bad man his knuckier in the spring games. The Mad Russian swung in one place as the ball hopped to another. It was in this series, too, that it quickly became evident that a written guarantee did not go with everv ball hit into Novikoff's territory.

On short throws from left field to third base, he twice threw the srjhere Into the dugout. Lou Novikoff can pound the Dill, all right when it is thrown up there where he can keep track of and get a whack at it. But he isn't so formidable when the bovs oull the strings. Other great double A hitters sui- fered similarly in the big show Ping Bodie, Bunny Brief and Paul Strand among them. A bad man can't do much damage when he's handcuffed.

Jeanne Cline, 17 year old Bloomington star, shot a brilliant four over par 78 to take runner up honors in the qualifying rounds of the Illinois Women a golf championship tournament at Danville Country club. Miss Ellamae Williams of Chi cago, the defending champion, nosed out Miss Cline by a single stroke for medalist honors.

In all, 16 state stars qualified for Tuesday's first round of match play. Among the other qualifiers was -Miss Betty Lou Hammerlund of Normal, who shot an 89. Miss Anne Lewis of Bloomington, play ing in her first tournament, failed to qualify. Miss Cline grabbed the spotlight the first nine holes of Monday's qualifying play, shooting a two over par 39, while Miss Williams had to be satisfied with a 41. In the second round, though, Miss Williams picked up sharply, card ing a sizzling 36 while Jeanne could only duplicate her first round score.

In Tuesday's first round play, Jeanne heads the lower bracket and meets Miss Vilas Norton of Chicago, who qualified with an 83. Miss Hammerlund meets a former titleholder, Miss Dorothy Foster of Springfield Tuesday. Miss Foster qualified with an 82.

Sportsmen Boost Program to 1,500 Quota 600 More Than in 1940; Chapters Share With the Sportsmen BY JOHN BOWMAN. If you liked the pheasant hunt ing in McLean county last fall, you'll be pleased as a dog with a bone this year. The McLean County Sportsmen's club is planning to distribute 1,500 ringnecks before the summer's end, 600 more than in 1940. The increase is in line frith the statewide boost in pheasant raising as advocated by Livingston E. Osborne, state conservation director.

Already, 500 pheasant chicks ere being reared at the county farm brooder unit and an additional 250 are being carefully looked after on the Stengel farm near Ellsworth. These are chicks furnished by the state conservation department. Another 750 will be sent here in six more weeks by the state. All pheasants will be distributed to spots throughout the county by the various sportsmen's club chap ters. Each chapter paying it's county dues will be eligible to re ceive a quota of birds, but dues mnust be paid by July 1, it was agreed at last Friday night's county meeting.

Meanwhile, the Bloomington chapter is doing all right with its quail rearing program at Lake Bloomington, too. There are 200 baby Bob Whites in the brooders, and 200 more will be shipped here by the state within six weeks.

L. batters hitting .300 or better were Cardinals, the list including Crabtree, Slaughter, Mize, Triplett, Moore, Brown, Padgett and Hopp. This showing is no accident. Southworth had the idea that ball players did more loafing than practicing during spring training; 'that they followed antiquated methods on the "what was good enough for father is good enough for ma" theory. He sold Sam Breadon on the idea of splitting the squad into smaller groups, of doing everything by the clock so there wasn't an idle moment.

As a consequence his play ers got probably twice as much batting practice as any other club.

That will be an interesting match between the Ryder cup team and the squad chosen and captained by Bobby Jones Golf being the game it is, the competition will prove nothing except that on a certain day one man, or group of men, happened to have a slight bulge in luck or skill over the opposition. Every man on each team probably could beat every other man on some hot day. The Ryder team was chosen as a gesture a year or more ago when it was apparent no international match could be held. Were it to be selected today it would be dif ficult to leave off at least three men who will compete on Bobby Jones' team. Craig Wood would belong on his recent national open victory, Lawson Little on his tri umph last year, and Gene Sarazen on his all around play through 1940.

The proceeds1 of the match will go into the United Service Organizations' fund, and the exhibition is just another proof that when it comes to donating time or effort to charity or. public service group can come even close to the professional golfers. Every Man's Blocking Back in Regatta Arlington 15,000 See Opening of Season CHICAGO. UP) Arlington park's rich summer meeting one which will see the distribution to horsemen of more than $475,000 in purses through 34 days opened Monday with the first of the track stake events being won by King's Blue from the Huntley and Sher stable of Miami, Fla.

UP) Those long, skinny water spiders will straddle their way down the broad Hudson Wednesday in the annual intercollegiate regatta, and it's dollars to peanuts about 90 percent of the thousands who line the banks couldn't tell you the name of even one man pulling an oar. There is something admirable in the willingness of those anonymous young athletes to take part in a back breaking sport in which every man is virtually a blocking back, with no chance for personal glory and the only satisfaction to be gained the self satisfaction of having done his part toward the success of the whole. It's the only sport we can think of offhand in which there Is no chance for a contestant to stand out above the others.

Each man is a number, and only emerges as a personality when he tumbles out of his shell, contracts measles or suffers some other misadventure, such as getting his nose in the way of a falling flagpole as a yolumbia crewman did a couple of years ago.
