S. ! amateur golf championship, is go ing the American way about seek ! ing the title next year. He plans intensive practice on the putting green. Disclosing, on his belated return, that some prominent American observers already were phophesying a triumph for Britain in the next ! engagement of the Walker cup series over here in 1938, McLean added the warning: "If we are to win we must start right now copy ing American methods. We can ; win if we go about our prepara , tions in the right way.” | McLean said that Francis Oui ; met, captain of the American team, , had told him: “You boys have got ; the golf and if it is developed as | you seem to be developing it, then the Americans will find the task of holding the Walker cup more haz • ardous than they ever have known.” Associate With Pros McLean said, “It all boils down to this: Whereas we in Britain play at the game. American amateurs work at it. They are always with a pro fessional. If any flaw creeps into their play they have a professional rectify it. Hardly a week passes 1 but they are with the pro. That is the big difference between Amer ican and British golf. “I asked Bobby Jones and Denny Shute if I should change my style of driving to give me an extra lo or 15 yards. They, were astonished. Bobby Jones declared that if I wanted to take three strokes per round off my score then I would , find them on the putting green, I not from the tee. “'Anywhere from 80 yards to the green the Americans have us beat en. But that is not to say they will always have us beaten there. Yank Caddies Surprise ‘T've brought back about 30 new ; putters. They are of all makes. If I ! cannot sink my putts as well as the American boys with this little lot— | well, I’ll be a poor player and no 1 mistake.” i McLean disclosed he is moving j from his present home to a new one j behind East Kilbride golf course : outside Glasgow, where, he says, “I : will be in a position to practice : from morn till night.” American caddies surprised him. ‘ One morning in the champion ship,” he said, "I asked my caddie if he could manage to be on the course before 9 o’clock. The caddie said he could, even though he lived three iniles away. ‘How will you manage it?’ I asked. ‘By cycle?’ ‘Of course not,’ was the reply, Tiave a car’." Eddie Brietz Says I I j NEW YORK.

Well armed with impressive bat ting and pitching averages, the other newcomers expected to be raised when 1937 contracts come out are Johnny Mize, who batted .329 for the Cardinals; Les Scarsella, Reds’ first baseman, who finished with a mark of .313; Bill Atwood and Walter Millies, catchers for the Phils and Senators, respective ly; Harry Gumbert and Frank Gabler, Giants’ pitchers; and Har ry Kelley, who won 15 and lost 12 for the Athletics.

S.—t*V-Pur du's "touchdown twins," rated by many as the greatest pigskin tot ers in college football, will get their ) greatest test Saturday when the j Botlmakers run up against Ford ; ham’s seven granite pillar line. When Purdue toppled Fordham | from the ranks of the undefeated by a convincing 20 to 0 margin ; last fall. Cecil Isbell and John i Drake were on the bench. | They have been setting a ground gaining pace that has left most of the mlddlewestem backs In the ruck this fall. Isbell, a swivel-hip ped Junior with a baffling change of pace, has carried the ball from scrimmage SI times for a total gain of 487 yards, an average of 8 1-S a crack. Drake has cracked through oposing lines 44 times for 328 yards, an average of 7.46 a thrust. The Boilermaker backs have been picking up plenty of points as well as yardage. Isbell has accounted for I six touchdowns and has added eight | points after touchdown for a total 1 of 44 points. Drake is credited with ! four touchdowns In big ten games. PIMUCO OFFERS $25,000 STAKE BALTIMORE, Nov. 3—(^—Pim lico’s fall meeting—running its sec ond day today—offers the Pimlico Puturity as Its election day feature. The $15,000 added mile and six teenth stake for 3-year-olds drew a field of 11. If that number start— and it appeared likely all would be in there—the race would bring $35. 800 net to the winner, $3,500 to sec ond, $1,500 third and $3,000 fourth. Calumet Farm’s privileged, with Jockey E. Arcaro up, appeared as the early favorite, being quoted at probable odds of 11 to 5. Privileged ran second to Pompoon in the Bel mont futurity. The E. R. Bradley entry of Bil lionaire and Brooklyn also drew considerable backing, as did Wal ter M. Jefford’s Matey. Supply House also drew early support. Jack Dempsey To Be Referee For Wrestlers CHARLOTTE, Nov. S.-Jiek Dempsey, probably the most popu lar and glamorous sports figure of all time, will referee the main event of a strong wrestling program here next Monday night, It was an nounced today by Promoter Jim Crockett. It will be the old Manassa Maul er’s second appearance here this year. In the early summer he drew a record-breaking crowd to the armory, more than 6,000 eager spectators Jamming the arena for a look at the farmer champion and builder of million dollar gates. More than a thousand disappoint ed fans were turned back as the fire department halted the sale of tickets because of safety measures. The towering, hard-hitting Dick Powell, young West Virginia giant, will clash with the clever and popu lar Henry Graber in the main event. Powell is a terror to referees and the old Manassa Mauler may be called on to unleash one of those terrific wallops that carried him to the boxing heights. He has laid several tough wrestlers out with that sock. Painted Pigskin GREELEY, Colo.—(£■>—Ever see a striped ball used in a football game?

SPORTS SLANTS By TAP There ere any number of lade who go on playing fine brand of football week after week but who. | for some reaeon or other, never i seem to crasn the headlines. Northwestern's two high scoring backs, Pullback Don Oeyer and Halfback Don Heap, are the big guns In the Wildcat attack. but Fred Vanio. the 100-pound block ing quarter beak who very seldom carries the ball. Is credited by Sig Harris, veteran Minnesota scout, as being one of the best # men in the business—at the blocking back post. Against Illinois Vanio repeatedly knocked one and two man down for Heap and Oeyer. He has mastered the block as have few other men in Northwestern grid history. Capt. Matt Patanelli of Michigan, in the opinion of numerous Big I Ten officials and coaches, would irate an end Job on any mythical eleven If he were playing with a winner this season. Michigan’s grid fortunes have been at a low ebb. but this hasn't prevented Matt from turning in great games, especially on the defense, each Saturday aft ernoon. Against Minnesota, when the Wolverlaea were routed 26-0. Patanelli broke Into the Minnesota backfteld twice to throw rimers loi losses and his pass Interception on the Michigan 7-yard line prevent ed another Oopher score. When the chips ere down yon can bet your last dollar that Steve Toth, alternating fullback for Northwestern, will deliver. In the Ohlol State-Wildcat game, with his team leading the Buckeyes by a single point, Toth stood five yards back of his own goal line and punted 76 yards down the field— and out of bounds on the Ohio State's 39. A normal kicker might have been fatel—the way Joe Wil liams had been returning punts. But Toth didn't get away a nor mal kick—it was the kind that saves ball games. If anyone should ask Harry Stuhldreher about it, Eddie Jan kowski, his slashing fullback at Wisconsin, Is quite a ball player, even though the Badgers this sea son haven't done enough scoring to get Eddie's name Into headlines very often. Against Notrs Dame, as his team was soundly whipped, Jankowski ran the ends, backed up the line and snatched passes In all America style. Arter the geme the Irish admitted "he is on# tough ball player.” Ray King U usually listed as one | of the regular Minnesota ends. But against Purdue, early In the first half, he must have had an off day, because the Boilermaker backs were scampering around his flank with regularity. Then In trotted Ray Antll, a comparatively unknown Gopher. Antll took over the wing post and there was no more Pur due scampering around that side of the Minnesota line. Children Hurt In School But Wreck WELDON, Nov. 3.—(JP)—A school bus and an automobile collided near here, injuring a girl occupant of the automobile, and shaking up and 'bruising some children on the bus.
