the week Hia opening match tomorrow pits him against Rufus King youthful Colorado state champion and a former junior trapshooting winner Bracketed In the chumpion'a quarter are Inland Hnmman Texas star Jack Westland of Chicago Bobby Ricgcl of Richmond the southern amnteur king Francis Ouimct Willie Tur-nesa and Dave (Spec) Goldman Texan who wna Little's victim in the finnl round at Brookline

''rnih second round firework There'i no agreement whatever nn most likely candidate for a Jw champion If one develops Atlanta Charley Yates la rated high in the secuml qunrter which also include Fred Huh Jr of New Orleans liny Billows of CDtftfENT Bob Pigue Hofmann Ii Responsible Fred Hofmann manager of the Memphis Chickaanws is smiling like the cat that ate the ennary following the sale of Jim Henry Tribal right-handed ace to the Boston Red Sox for Hofmann is really responsible for Henry's development and rates an assist on the deal Early last spring Freddie took a aliine to Henry and said that with proper handling he could he made into great pitcher And day after day the Chickasaw chieftain worked with the tall tosaer eliminating the kinks and coaching him along showing him now to pitch instructing him how to get the most out of hia salary wing Hofmann having caught many great pitchers during hia major league career waa well fitted to bring Henry and how well he ucceeded is attested in Jim's string of wins Henry said a while bark that whatever he knew about pitching Hofmann taught him and that if he ever amounted to anything as a pitcher the Tribal chieftain would rate the credit Hofmann is proud of the way Henry came along and while he admits he benefited Jim a bit he says that Henry had to have the stuff which he did All in all It's a happy deal all the way around for Henry aaid he preferred the Bcanville Hose to any other major club while the kale which will be paid the Chicks for him will go a long ways toward keeping the Tribe out of the red Looks Like Crackers With Memphis just about in for fourth place in the Southern atand-ing and with the Atlanta Crackers sitting pretty for first place it appears now as If the Chirks and Crackers will meet one of the openers of the Shaugneaay playoff which is expected to begin a week from Wednesday The first and fourth-place dubs meet with the second and third teams getting together The re-receipts of the Shaughnesay will he pooled with nil clubs sharing alike The guess of this corner is that the playoff will start in Memphis and Nashville with Atlanta and New Orleans getting Saturday and Sunday games especially Atlanta which will likely attract more cash customers than the other three remaining cities combined Donie Bush hears that he mny manage the Boston Braves next season but hopes it ia a mistake Fondren in National Memphis golf fans are going to keep their orbs peeled on newi dispatches out of Cleveland for when the National Amateur golf tournament begins a young Memphian (Dub)
