a a uiirl 1 1 RitcL- U'liita A CHICAGO (AP) Rain wrecked the final round of the $42,000 All-America golf tourney at Tarn Shanter. shunting the payoff play to Monday. But the money-making magic of George $. May didn't desert him, despite the deluge which washed away the expected Big Day's gate receipts. Mr.

Mav had rain insurance S10.000 worth for only one day of his seven-day, three-ring fairway free-for-all, and that day (You guessed it!) was iunda. So Mr. May will pick up a $10,000 check from the insurance firm and $100 of his own and these you have the first prize for the open tournament. The leader in that 72-hole medal plav test will get $10,100 in cash, or $13,462.50 in War Bonds. Its the biggest payoff in golfdom's history.

With 54 of the 72 holes out of the way, Byron Nelson is ready to snatch it. f. All Nelson, second highest money-winner of the year, has to do is maintain a uo- ui ni tourney in 1941 and 1942, has '211 stroke, fh in last season's title playoff, is tied uith the St. Louis chemist, is leading the amate of Earl L.

They were only half a game behind the second-place New York Yankees, however. The New Yorkers obliged by dividing a double-header with Washington. HAROLD NEWHOUSER was credited with the victory, his twenty-first of the season.

He was lucky to win, for he got off to a bad start, giving up nine hits in the first four innings. Then he settled down, shutting out the Brownies with four hits in the last five frames. He also managed to strike out eight men. The Tigers used 16 men in the second game, which was decided in the second inning when the Brownies used five hits and three bases on balls to acquire six runs. Walter (Boom Boom) Beck, veteran right-hander, made his second start of the season and was charged with the defeat, his second of the year.

The games were witnessed by a crowd of 53,153, consisting of ol.STb paying guests and service men. It was the season's largest at Briggs Stadium and swelled the Tigers' home attendance to 595,476 for 58 games. Thev drew 463.364 for their first 58 home games in 1943. THE FIRST GAME had an ominous outcome for the Brownies. Luke Sewell.

Brownie manager, started Right-Hander Bob Mun-crief. Troubled with a sore arm, Muncrief had not finished a game since July 30 when he defeated Washington in 10 innings. He was given the first game, assignment as a test. Manager Sewell announced that he would send Bob back to St Louis if he could not finish. Muncrief shut out the Tigers with two hits in the first four innings.

Then Dick Wakefield started Muncrief to his downfall with a home run in the fifth that gave the Tigers their first run. It was his seventh home run. The Tigers finished Muncrief in the sixth when they clinched the game by scoring four more runs. The Brownies were leading to 1, when Eddie Mayo opened the attack with a single after one was out. Pinky Higgins duplicated the blow.

Rudy York then measured uie left-field foul line with a double, scoring Mayo and sendmg Muncrief to the showers. GEORGE CASTER came in and gave an intentional pass to Dick Wakefield, after which Jimmy Outlaw bounced to. Mark Christman. Instead of starting a possible double play by throwing- to secend or cutting off a run by throwing Higgins out at the plate, Christ- i man threw O-itlaw out at first wnue niggins scored. Paul Richards then doubled to right, scoring York and Wakefield.

Five pitchers were included among the 16 men the Tigers used in the second game, Ruffus Gentry, Roy Henshaw, Zeb Eaton and Jake Mooty following Beck to the mound. The quintet yielded 17 hits, which included a home run by Christman, and walked six men. TOST GAME ST.

Free Press Photo LT. CHARLEY GEHRINGER young Tiger winner rowing him for the drive down the stretch, he grinned and replied with characteristic modesty. "I'm in the soccer department now. I've been booting them pretty well." That reminded somebody of the time Gehringer made two errors in one game and then was unable to attend a dinner at which each Tiger guest was presented with an automobile. "Humph!" snorted Gehringer when he learned of what he had missed, "I'm even booting automobiles now." Charley is coach of baseball, swimming and soccer at St.

Mary's. William Harrldge, president of the American League, and Tommy Connolly, chief umpire, came from Chicago to see the Tigers and the Brownies wind up their series. Steve O'Neil is going to send Ruffus Gentry and Johnny Gorsica to the mound in the two-game series with the White Sox which opens Tuesday. Gentry has won seven games and Gorsica five. In games with the White Sox Gentry has allowed seven hits in seven innings and Gorsica has been touched for 10 in 13 innings.

Johnny McHale, who recently received a medical discharge from the Navy, pinch batted for Roger Cramer in the ninth inning of the second game. The Tigers had not previously reported that he had been returned to the active list.
