F. DRl KKNBKOD. NE OF GOLF'S biggest shows will get under way this morning. wltn tne south course at Oakland Hills Country club the stage and America's foremost women golfers the actors. The occasion will be the women's national tournament, and when the curtain rises for the first mosi stirring dramas attacnea to tournament golf, the qualifying round, with more than 90 players In a tense struggle to determine the 32 who are to survive for match play which will begin Tuesday morning and continue with 18 hole matches dally until Saturday's 36-hole final.

Golf cannot match the great crowds which gather for world's strfes baseball games, championship prize fights or big football games. But golf tournaments, with their colorful galleries tramping over hill and dale with the players, also are spectacles and followers of the game are always thrilled by them. BY HARRY BULLIOX. 0 WNERS of the Detroit base ball club have started off on the right foot in persuance of the policy to rebuild the team and the customers of Navin field unanimously hope that they don't stub their toes before the job is finished. On the form displayed by recruits who haw been given trials in these fading days of the season there is reason to believe that the chaps who recommended the purchases of the young men did not let snap judgement sway them.

Arthur Herring. Whitlow Wyatt, Elon Hogsett, pitchers, and Bill Akers, shortstop, added luster to a drab experience for Manager Harris and if they are not just Hashes in the pan maybe after all Harris won't be as weary when he leaves for Washington at the close of the schedule as he could not avoid being the last two months of it. DANGER exists In the theory that a good beginning presages a poor ending, however. But the merit the young men who already have reported displayed In their brief connection with the Tigers Is sufficient recommendation for assignments to spring training camp, wherever that will he, Tampa, Atlanta, Long Beach, or Catallna Island. About this time, some of the veterans on the club are wondering what their status is going to be next year.

If justice is done the patient fans, many of the now spavined and tottering chattels will be asked to clear out of here post-haste, or something like that. Little trouble ihould be experienced filling their places; much more of task is confronted in getting rid of them. Of course, this might be construed as a squawk from one discontented, still the same opinion is entertained by the vast majority of baseball patrons here. The team cannot win as It is constructed now and there wouldn't he any material difference if It didn't win with the replacements that are certain to be made. ONE purpose would be served by the wholesale changes In that the youngsters, with the encouragement they could feci reasonably certain of getting, would hustle.

In the early weeks of this almost faded out race the Tigers hustled for Harris and In a large majority of Instances looked good ven when they lost. For a time the repeated reverses Simrall and Holland Develop Tendency of Throwing Beyond Their Receivers. PUNTING BELOW PAR Absence of Injuries, However, Gives Team Flying Start for State Contest. BY CHARLES BANG. A' NN ARBOR, Sept.

29. Their thirsts piqued by the double draught of vic tory which they tasted Saturday, the Wolverine grldders now face the task of preparing themselves for the invasion of "Sleepy" Crowley's Spartans this week end. Michigan was fairly Impressive In trouncing Albion 39-0, and in winning irom Mt. Union by a comfortable 10 point margin, but at the same time a pronounced greenness was retlected in the numerous error committed by the players. Certainlv the current season was opened Infinitely more auspiciously than the season of a year ago, but the battle has Just started and the team must avoid becoming intoxicated from its sip of success.

State Shows Power. Michigan State showed a world of power In snowing Alma under 59-6, and the Maize and Blue is likely to have a stiff battle on her hands. Although spending his first year at Landing, Coach Crowley seems to mm mrnKwrwrmi "vn uit laiuuuo Notre Dame attack thoroughly I uced to his players, and any team that can run off Notre Dame plays with precision will test i the strongest of defenses. Coupling this hypothesis with the potential power demonstrated by the SIMKAIX Wolverine machine, a free scoring game would not come as a great surprise Saturday. Granted that Michigan was guilty of numerous faults Saturday, still Frequently the quarterback called for what was obviously the wrong play at some particular moment, but fortunately the errors were not costly ones.

Th'i? passing as a whole left ample ronm for improvement. Both Sim-rail and Hollnnd, who handled most of the throwing, led their men too far, and the fact that Michigan completed a goodly share of the passes tiled can be credited to sev ernl spectacular catches by the re- reivers. The fact is that one or two of the throws were successful of the asser, rather than because of him. Punting Below Par. Th Duntlne of lhc WBS better than aveiage.

University of Iowa's latest athletic storm, generated when a dozen members of the Hawkeye football squad were declared Ineligible Just before game time yesterday, today had simmered down to the proportions of a tempest in a teapot. C. C. Williams, chairman of the Iowa athletic board eligibility, said the scholastic difficulties which barred the players yesterday, were of technical nature and probably would be cleared up before the end of the week. The question of awarding credit for military and physical training courses caused Oliver San-sen and Handahl Hickman, soplvv more backrleld men, to be kept from action Saturday.

Others on the Ineligibility list, notably Gus Mastronanv. veteran end. were kent out fnr fnll inn in complete their registration before the Another regular, Lawrence Reedqiiist, an end. cleared away his difficulties late Saturday and his name was removed from the llFt. THOUSANDS OF PINSTERS Chicago will have half a million howlers in action this season.

Every oranrn or industry Is represented Carburetor Eleven Forced to Come From Behind to Avert Defeat. PENALTY KICKS FACTOR Carpenters Turn Two Attempts Into Goals and Force Strenuous BY AKTHl'K SALE. Fast and brilliant soccer characterized the Midwest Inter-City league bout between Holley Carburetor and Chicago Carpenters at Packard park yesterday, a strenuous contest bringing a division of points as the result of a 4-4 score. Penalty kicks played a prominent part In the result, Chicago twice profiting by violations of Holley defenders, and the locals getting a single by the same means. For the major part of the contest Holley failed to inject the vim and determination which has marked previous displays, the halfbacks being decidedly weak in spots.

Nor was there the same superb combinations usually associated with the work of the Caiburetors' forward line, the attacks being spasmodic and generally disjointed. Harris Days Well. Harris gave a sound display In the Intermediate division, having to cover his wing halves repeatedly, while Wood was a tower of strength in defense. Gavin was conspicuous in the forward line, Sutherland showing speed and accuracy on the wing. Chicago was well served in Its attacking line, Greenlces leading the offense with marked success, and proving a constant thorn in the side of the opposition.

Both wings were sound, Sandy Graham, a former Detroit player, who was partnered by Bob Stevenson, another Detroiter, indulging In some fast sprints and perfect line drives. Tie Is Satisfactory. Another pair of locals, who formerly played with Walkervllle, Gregg and Dempsey, rendered valuable service to the visitors' cause, although the strong defensive play of the latter was spoiled by a desire to emulate the prowess of his famous namesake at the slightest provocation. On the run of the game the result was a fitting termination to a hard fought bout, in which some brilliant soccer was witnessed, and hard knocks given by both sides. As was the case a week ago It needed the stimulus of being two goals in arrears for the home club to assert itself, Chicago getting the Jump and compelling to come from behind twice to avert defeat.

From the kick-off Holley right wing carried the ball along the line. Gavin taking the pass to shoot Inches wide. Chicago retaliated via Graham, poor clearance almost bringing the downfall of Holley goal, Greenlees' shot passing outside the post. A corner to the Carpenters was cleared, and a great drive from Graham brought Ed wards to his knees, the goalie making a smart stop. Gregg Scores First.

Neilson wa3 penalized for an offense on Graham in the fatal zone, Gregg taking the spot kick to give his side the (ead after 20 minutes play. Another attack by the visitors brought Edwards out of position, Stewart luckily kicking over his goal line as the onrushing center was all set to drive home. to this point Holley was seldom in the picture. Greenlees literally running through the defense to score number two. Hereupon Holley settled down, shaking off the lethargy which had been apparent, and following Nelson's freeklck, Laverv reduced the lead with a lob rhot that passed over the goalkeepers arms.

EIGHTEENTH FOR HIM Hornsby Hits Home Winning Run of the Close Game. HICAGO, Sept. -Charley Root turned in his eighteenth victory and be came the logical choice to open the world's series with the Athletics when he let Cincinnati down with six hits, as Chicago beat the Iteds, 1 to 0, here today. Four of the six hits were infield scratches. Cold and dreary weather held the attendance down to 12.000, one of the smallest gatherings of fans this season.

HOOT. Hornsby's thirty-ninth home run of the season In the fourth inning was the only score of the game. Rogers also got two singles and a double to help out his batting average. Neither the Cubs nor Keds really threatened to do anything in the other innings. Hack Wilson knocked out Pitcher Ben Frey with a line drive to the Red pitcher's stomach In the fourth, but Frey recovered and pitched great ball the rest of the way.

The champion Cubs are idle tomorrow, and Tuesday they open a five-game series In Cincinnati. A game with Pittsburgh here next Sunday brings the season to a close. ClIICACO. CINCINNATI. A A A A McMillan, a 4 1 2 It.

Detroit, which in recent years has bfen the scene of the national and western opens, as well as the western amateur, and more than a decade ago the national amateur, eagerly awaits the women's national. It is most fortunate in that the field is one of the best ttiat the event has ever attracted and can rest assured that the event will conducted in a manner that will he satisfactory to contestants and spectators alike. Oakland Hills knows how to handle big FA' MISS COLLETT tournaments, having learned well whllo staging the western open In 1922 and the national open in 192 Probable Scores Hold Interest Irons and woods swished through the air in practice for the last time near sundown yesterday, and two thoughts were uppermost in the minds of most contestants as they began their anxious wait for today's Important round.

Their chief concern was as to the score will be required to gain a place with ths fortunate 32: also how low the medalist will score. In each of the last two years at Virginia Hot Springs in 1928 and at Cherry Valley in 1927 four players with 91 's were the last ones to get in, the lowest In the history of the tournament. The previous rec ord limit figure was 93 In both 1925 and 1926. Oakland Hills, with It rolling fairways, billowy greens, big traps and long holes, is a difficult layout, probably more so than the women have encountered in any of their nationals with the exception of the St. Louis Country club, where their 1925 tournament was played.

Totals May Run High. Because of this, qualifying scores again are likely to run up to 93 again, and mavbe a stroke higher should a big wind come up, as It does so often In the Oakland Hills section. The wind she blew out there on the final day of the 1924 open, and scores of some of the country's mightiest males promptly soared. But there's one feature about Oakland Hills that some do not know. Its series of tees provide a flexible length and by judicious selection of them a course suitable to woinen's golf is immediately obtained, without depriving it of its na MRS.
