Ward PHILADELPHIA, May 10 Four hits wars all the Tigers were able to make' off two Philadelphia pitchers today, and as the result they were defeated by Connie Mack's Athletics In the first gam of a three-game series, 5 to 3.

The defeat their second in successive days, dropped the Tigers to sixth place in the American League standings. Leroy (Popeye) Mahaffey and Alton Benton, both right handers, were the hurlers the ancient Mack sent against the Tigers. Mahaffey, just recovering Irom an illness, started and was credited with his first victory of the year. He was charged with three of the Tigers' hits and all or their runs. Although the Tigers found his stuff difficult to hit.

Mahaffey was wild. He walked six batsmen and was lifted in the seventh after he had passed two men. Benton cam on the scene with Rowe and White on the bases and ona man out and kept the Tigers away from the plate. scnooiooy Kowe went tne rout for the Tigers. He waa touched for eight hits, but that really didn't make much difference since the Tigers could give him little asslstr ance along the patn to victory.

Battle of Home Runs The game jvas a battle of horn runs, the Macks collecting two and scoring three of their five runs on hits of this variety. Bob Johnson and Ptnkey Hlggina were the circuit clouters for the Macks, Johnson putting the ball Into the upper reaches of the centerfield stands la the third Inning and Hlggins clearing the right field wall with a hit in the sixth. Johnson's circuit drive came with Jimmy Fox on base. It was his fifth of the season and it tied htm with Foxx, who also has mad five. Jimmy mad a triple during today's festivities.

Goos Goslin gave the Tigers their only runs of the game when he blasted the ball over the right field wall with Marvin Owen and Rowe aboard In the fifth. Goslin and Owen were the only regulars who hit safely today. Owen mad two singles. The other Tiger hit was made by Gerald Walker, who batted for Rowe In the ninth-Walker, was benched today in favor of Jo-Jo White because of fielding lapses. Athletics Bunch Hits Four hits, eacn one harder than the one that preceded It sent the Macks off to a four-run lead In the third.

Cramer singled to centef after on was out and scored when McNair doubled off the left field wall. Foxx then tripled to right center, scoring McNair, and after Coleman grounded out. to Green-berg, Johson blasted a home run into the top deck of the center field stands, scoring Foxx as well as himself. The Tigers were helpless as new born babes in the hands of Mahaffey during the first four innings. In three of the four innings they got men on bases, but at no time were they able to get a hit when It might mean a run.

In the fourth both Gehrlnger and Rogell walked after one was out, but Greenberg popped at Warstler and Fox looked at a third strike. The Tigers got back in the fight In the fifth by scoring three runs to cut the Mackian margin to on tally. Owen opened the drive by singling through the box and went to second when Rowe drew a pass. White went out when Higgins mad a gooa eaten or his foul, but Goslin blasted the ball over the right field wall for a home run. scoring OweH and Rowe ahead of himself.

The Goose picked on a fast ball which Mahaffey tried to slip across with the count three and one. Bonton Stop Tigers The Macks added another tally to their total in the sixth when Higgins, the first man up, hit Rowe's first pitch over the right field fall for a home run. Mahaffev's wildnesa enabled tha Tigers to get two men aboard in th seventh and caused him to be dismissed for the afternoon. Owen opened the inning by drawing a pass but was forced at second by Rowe. White then got aboard on a rain check and Mr.

Mack urged Mahaffey to take the rest of th afternoon off. The skinny sachem sent Benton in to pitch and he retired Goslin and Cochran without permitting them to get the ball out of the infield. Walker got aboard for the Tigers In th ninth when he batted for Rowe and beat out a single to third after two men were out. But he was left, for White expired on a long fly to Coleman.

Charles ridden by S. Young, came down In front with a neck advantage over Hasty Belle, but was disqualified because Young cut across Hasty Belle near the sixteenth pole as the filly appeared about to pass the pacemaker, jockey Maschek, who rode Hasty Belle, lodged a claim of foul and was upheld by the stewards. Charles J. and Hasty Belle were the heavily played favorites and proved much the best of the field of eight. Hasty Bella was awarded the first money, the place went to naioia, jour lengtns Back, and third money was taken by Maebee.

Gentry'a Saddles Leaders Lloyd Gentry, veteran trainer. who had more than his share of bad racing iuck ibsc summer, Kepi up nis good work in the first race Thursday when the two horses he saddled for H. C. Hatch, ran one- two. They were Chickpen and Don stick, the former getting the deci sion by a nose while Miss Worth- more was beaten off four lengths.

It was a dash of four and one-half furlongs for two-year-old maidens, foaled in Canada, and it was strictly a two-horse race from the rise of the barrier. Jockey Young took Donstick out in front at the start, but was overhauled by Chickpen at the quarter. Miss Worthmore managed to move into second place for a few jumps but xoung brought Donstick on again and he raced head and head with his stablemate to the wire. Jockey J. Thomas was up on the winner which paid only S4.Z5.

The Hun, a familiar i'lde across the river, was installed a heavy favorite In the third race and won with nearly two lengths to spare over Tom Jack, Jr. The Canadian bred Refiner, was third, another half length. back In a field of eight Never Threatened The Hun never was seriously threatened. Jockey Madeley broke him on top and kept him there, while Tom Jack, after a slow start, closed an Immense gap in the stretch to take second money. The form players lost one in the fourth when Jockey Vercher brought Hereward down In front.

The place was taken by Distribute, the favorite, while Esperanto, also well played, was third in a field of eight Hereward stepped the three-quarters in the good time of 1:13 1-5. Another outsider, Princeton, al though he was less than 3-1, won the fifth race. Charlie was second and the favorite, Jere, third. Apprentice Maurice Peters was up on the win ner and he rode another smart and hustling race, getting the winner over the five and one-half furlongs route in 1:08 1-5. Rose Path, the shortest priced winner of the meeting, made good for its supporters in the sixth race.

Rose Path, with Young aboard, went to the post at 1-2 and scored over the heavily played Toe Dance with some to spare, Sugar Jar was third in the field of seven. Rose Path payed only $3 for a $2 straight ticket Don Tasker was the fifth favorite of the day to win. With Peters up, the public choice defeated a field of seven of the older horses at a mile and 70 yards. Traumagne was second and Zcgora third. Stars Release Jack Quinn LOS ANGELES, "May 10 (A.

The Board has also to arrange for a schedule for 1934-1935 to include St Louis. of Golfing "No," he said. "He was for a while, but then his wife came along and he got out You know I guess she thought I was after a dollar from him." Which could not have been because Mr.

Livesay conducts the club of the left-handed golfers out of his own pocket pays all the expenses of the annual tourney and any other items of cost that crop up. I do not know why Mr. Livesay does this except maybe it is because he is a left-hander. You know what they say about left-handed baseball pitchers. I played a round of golf with the champion side winder in which he shot a 72 from the wrong side of the ball, and during the course of the game I said that I was delighted to have the opportunity to study a left-handed golfer at close range and see what they were really like.

"Well," said Mr. Livesay, patting his drive 280 yards down the mid 9 baseball luminaries as Wild Bill Donovan, Ty Cobb, Sam Crawford, Claude Rossman, Herman Schaefer, Ed Killian, George Mullin, Charley Schmidt, Jimmy Archer, Charley O'Leary, Matty Mclntyrc, Donnie Bush and Davy Jones. In addition to his prowess as pitcher, Willett waa quite a slugger. Upon learning of his death last night Harry Tuthill, trainer of the pennant winning Tigers, recalled one of Willett's best batting feats. "Ed always could hit," Tuthill re called, "but he gave the fans a real thrill one afternoon at old Bennett Park, by clouting two home runs.

And in that era of the comparative. ly aead Dan, two nome runs in a single game was quite a feat." Willett did not lose his lust for the game after his retirement aa an active player. Moving to Wei lington only sevesal months ago he took over the management of an amateur team for diversion this spring and was holding that nosi- tion when stricken.

Timi 3:0 Champion By Paul Gallico NEW YORK, May 10 During some recent wanderings over the adjacent landscape I came upon the gentleman who has the right to the title of United States left-handed golf champion because he won It away from a lot of -other left-handed golfers, or at least all the left-handed golfers he could get to come out and play him for it His name is Everett Livesay and he is an Inventor who hails from Columbus.

O. I had heard of the club of the red-headed men, and the club of the one-armed men, but the club of the left-handed golfers was a new one on me. Master George Herman Ruth was once a member of Mr. Livesay club of the left-handed golfers. I asked the boss left-hander whether Ruth was still a member and he shook bis head sadly.

He retired as an active player at the conclusion of uie 1814 season. Although he served on three pen nant winning Tiger teams, those of 1907, 1908 and 1909, Willett participated in only two World Series games. He relieved Ed Summers in the fifth inning of the third game of the 1909 series between the Tigers and the Pirates, which the Pirates won, 8 to 6, and he went to the relief of Summers again in the fifth game, and again the Pirates won, 8 to 4.

Lawson Little, burly Californian, would be America's No. 1 team, and considered them an unbeatable combination, so he threw his hottest pair, Eric McRuvie and Jack McLean, into second place against Ouimet and George T.

The meeting promises to be pleasant for Cattarinich because rumor has almost every team in the National League seeking Howie Morenz, veteran star of Cattari-nich's Lea Canadiens of Montreal Cattarinich insists he will not part with Morenz except for a large sum of money around 840.000. The most persistent rumor is that Morenz will come to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for $35,000 in cash and two players-Mush March and Louis Trudel.

Cattarinich also revealed prices he is setting upon Wilf Cude. He asserts he has had an offer of for the young goalie, who was a sensation when Canadiens loaned him to Detroit last season, and an offer for Cude and Morenz as a pair that would amount to $100,000 if the prices of the players offered In addition to the cash involved in the exchange were considered, Pet Chicago 15 7 .682 Pittsburgh 12 7 .832 New York 18 8 .819 St Louis 13 8 .819 Boston 10 10 .500 Brooklyn 7 IS .350 Philadelphia 8 IS -316 Cincinnati 15 .250 By Gayle Talbot St. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 10 (A. On the eve of the eighth renewal of international golf competition between the United States and Britain, historic "Auld" St Andrew's was aflutter tonight what with the Walker Cup and the Prince of Wales about to make their appearance simultaneously tomorrow. The sportsman-prince and nis usual entourage are expected to reach the famous course in time to watch thi Scotch foursome combinations tee off at 10 o'clock and remain through the singles warfare Saturday.

There was much hustling and bustling about the hotel where the American Walker Cup players are staying, shifting customers from room to room in order to provide cozy quarters for the Princes party. Only slightly excited over the im pending visit of royalty, most of the Americans spent the afternoon in automobiles, touring around the vicinity, taking in various and sundry castles. The principal point or interest was "Cortachy Castle" where the ghostly drummer boy popularly is supposed to appear and beat his instrument vigorously when a mem ber or tne n-arl or Aisle iamlly dies. wnue tne. visitors took an edu cational interest in the castle and its fable, a local wag suggested to Capt.

Francis Ouimet and his golf brigaae tnat tney mlgnt encounter inside an apparition which would mean a death knell for their hopes of stretching Uncle Sam's string of consecutive victories over the Brit ish to eight. Ouimet remarked that "Weve never been beaten by a ghost yet." wnat tne Americans nave to tear much more than ghosts Is the strong British team that they will the Species into left-handedness. He told me that the theory that all left-handers are looney was exploded by doctors who took X-ray plates of the arms of 500 babies at birth. These plates indicated greater strength in either one arm or the other. Whichever one was stronger, governed the right-or left-handedness of the child.

Professionals too lazy or too incompetent to teach left-handers how to hit, would turn around and ruin them. When Mr. Livesay finds natural left-handers who have been forced to go rightie, he turns them back again. He says it cuts 10 strokes oft their game and makes them ever so much sweeter to their wives and children. His ambition is to get Babe Herman and Rube Goldberg into his club, which is not a good argument that there Is nothing the matter with left-handers.

I think a part of his scheme thereafter will be to kidnap a lot of right-handers and make them play it Mr.

Livesay Is a big powerful six-footer, weighing 210 pounds. Always a left-hander, ha took up the cudgels for his brother golfers when he found professionals throughout the country trying to turn left-handers around and make them right-handers. And it used to be tougher than ail get-out to buy any decent left-handed clubs. The champion has observed many left-handers in action, and. even as you and has seen strong men pale, run in all directions and hide behind trees and dig themselves into sand traps at the appearance of a left-hander on the tee.

He then began a detailed study dle, "if you find out anything, let me know; I've been curious about it for a long time." Mr. Livesay has qualified for both amateur and open championships, but unfortunately developed a streak of booking both times and hooked himself right out of the tourneys. Of course you must realize that whed a lefty hooks the ball is really going a mile a minute in the direction of a righthander's slice. Golf course architects the world over have been quick to punish a slice with yawning bunkers, burbling creeks, matted rush and dense forests, lining the right-hand side of. the course while they have been much more lenient with the hookers.

Some day, with wealth derived from some future inventions, Mr. Livesay hopes to build a left-handed golf course, the first and only of Its kind In the world eym..
