Sarazen Burns Up Tourney Sandwich, Eng., June 10.-- Gene Sarazen, stocky New York professional, comtinued his -bril- liant play in the second chapter of the British open golf title chase yesterday, and finished with an imposing 69 'over the Prince's course. Equalling the record set by two young Britons, Don Curtis and Eric McRuvie, in the qualifying round, Sarazen's two-day total was 135, three strokes ahead of Percy Alliss of Great Britain, his closest contender. Alliss carded 71 equalling his mark of the day be- fore for a 142 total, an impres- sive score at any time. After his fine 70 of the day before, the New York Italian was nine under par for the two rounds yesterday. Only ten professionals out of the final field of sixty were given much chance to overhaul Sara- zen. But in this number were such British stars as W, H. Da- vies, Charles Whitcombe and the giant Archie Compson, all in a tie for third place with 144, five strokes behind the leader. Another stroke back was Tom- my Armour, Scottish - American defender of the title, with 145, and tied with him was another pair of Britons, Fred Robson and Arthur Havers. In the 146-stroke class were A. J. Lacey and Henry Cotton, with MacDonald Smith, ahetjse Scottish-American alone at 147. Baseball Scores INTERNATION: AL LEAGUE Buffalo ...

Foxy Roxy. -- Guelph Mercury, ~~ AY Sr Lewis Bested' Richard Shikat New York, June 10.--Calmiy, almost apathetically, a herd of wrestlers, headed by "Strangler" Ed, Lewis, the ancient caveman of Kentucky, and 'ruthless' Rich ard Shikat, of Germany, opened Madison Square iarden's new outdoor bowl on Long Island last night. That portion of the crowd of about 35,000 that came to see the wrestling 'watched Lews, old and fat, throw Shikat, young and powerful, in one hour, six minu- tes, seven geconds, with a head lock; while those who attended mostly to view the huge amphi- theatre, where Max Schmelling and Jack Sharkey will fight for the heavyweight title June 21, had a nice time parading through vacant seats and visiting with friends. To the Surprise of All About the time the f{riendly fclk had seen all there was of the place, those who came only for the wrestling were booing gently, and the curfew hour of 11 p.m. impended. Lewis came suddenly to life, beat the youthful Shikart brutally about the body with both fists; threw him violently the mat and pinned him to great surprise of all. Lewis, for- mer champion in a rival group to that of Jack Curley, for whom he wrestled, thus gained the right to challenge Jim Londos for the heavyweight title in the Madison Square Garden division. Lewis weighed 236 pounds, a great deal of it about his waist- line, while Shikat, a mighty young man but' never very popu- lar with the local faithful, scaled 218. It was a very slow, unevent- ful battle until the finish. The new bowl, a cement lined saucer hollowed out of the ground and seating 70,000 when filled, is lined on a gentle slope from the rim to the ring with wooden benches. Just completed within the last few days, it pro- vided a workout for the throng of ushers, police and technical work: ers who will be in charge of the new arena, largest in the world devoted only to boxing and wrest- Lins, for the major opening, June Youth Served in Ladies' Golf Toromto, June 10 The sover- eignty of youth in the Ontario la- dies' golf championship which was halted last June at Glendale after a three-year rule by the vic- tory of Miss Ada Mackenzie of the Toronto Ladies' Club over Miss Winnifred Robinson of St Catharines in the final match, was resumed again yesterday when two of the younger school advan ed out of tight semi-final matclies into the final yesterday afternoon, The finalists are Miss Robingon and Miss Honor Bright, the latter of Lookout Point, who won from Mrs. C. 8S.

JOHNSTON'S FEW WILL GOME T0 OLYMPICS FROM SOUTHERN EUROPE Central and Balkan Coun- tries Are Handicapped In Financing (By Wade Werner) Vienna, June 7.--Few athletes from southeastern Europe will be seen in action at Los Angeles this year. Olympic aspirations have been crowded out by econo- mic necessity. Governments which find it su- premely difficult or impossible to pay the interests on foreign debts show little enthusiasm for Olym- pic plans which involve -the gath- ering of $20,000 or $30,000 to pay for trips to Los Angles. Nevertheless, southeastern Eu- rope is not likely to remain en- tirely unrepresented at the games. Czechoslovakia, where precau- tionary currency-protective meas- ures are so severe that a citizen must have special permission to spend more than $30 of his own money on foreign travel, an- nounces that its champion shot- putter, Franz Douda, will be sent to California, crisis or no crisis. * 'Newspaper efforts to raise mon- ey for additional ('zech'oslovakian Olympic representation metted by public inscription only $12, indi- cating small popular enthusiasm. Professor Johann Widimsky, general secretary of the Czecho- slovakian Olymple committee, has not lost hope, however, of rais- ing momey enough somewhere-- perhaps in banking and indus- trial circles--to send eight or 10 athletes beside Douda. These would include weightlifters, Josef Skobla Wenzel Psenicka, possibly wrestling and boring teams. Austria probably will send a fencing fraulein, Eileen Preiss, to see what can be done with the foils; weight-lifting Haas. Bulgaria may send two horse- men," Commander Stoitcheff and Captain Lekarsky, for the riding contests. Roumania, which did not begin to participate in Olym- pics until after the war, and then only in a few sports such as football (1920 and 1924), fenc- ing and bobsledding, sees little chance of getting anyone to Los Angeles this summer. In Jugoslavia it is hard to raise even conversational interest in the Olympic Games. athletes hope they may get as far as Prague for the Sekel com- petitions im June and July, but no one seriously expects to com- pete in Los Angeles.

Dr. Hirschfeld Germany's 00D TEAM FROM GERMANY GOING 10 10S ANGELES New Athletic Stars Have Been Develcped Since 1928 Games (By Tom Wilhelm) Berlin, June 3.--Despite fin- handicaps Germany will be represented in the Olympics at Los Angeles by its fastest and huskiest athletes, eager to sus- tain the progress made since the war. Although the fatherland has made many notable gestures in the sporting world within the past decade, through the exploits of its fliers, its heavyweight Max Schmeling, its Ger- to achieve a first track and many has vet place in the Olympic field events, Four years ago the German team at Amsterdam scored well finishing third United States lost several the but points to crack 'middle to touweh and Emil Otto Peltzer, the distance runner, failed his world record form, . the world record- in the shotput, was bheat- en by a pair of American hus- kies, Kuck and Brix. Peltzer and Hirschfeld both will try again at Tos Angeles with of doing better, but best prospects of triumph may rest on the sturdy legs of Paul de Bruyn in the classic marathon. His rise within the past two years is one of the sensations of his homeland as well as of his adopted country, the United States. When not stoking & furnace in a New York hotel, de Bruyn devotes his time to distance run- ning. He came back to Berlin to win the national German mara- thon championship of 1931 and thig spring sprang a surprise by holder hopes beating an all-star field in the Boston marathon in the fine time of 2:33:36 2-5. De Bruyn will face: keen com- petition despite the absence of the 1928 marathon winner, El Ouafi of France, and the appar- ent ineligibility of Paavo Nurmi, but he has shown remarkable ability as well as determination. Up to his sudden advance Ger- many put more reliance upon her sprinters and weight men t§an upon distance runners, Peltzer's ability to come back sufficiently to be a real contender at 800 or 1,600 metres is problematical. Wichmann is probably the best bet at 1,500 and Danz at the 800. In the dashes Koernig, Lam- mers, Jonnath and either Berg- meyer of Pflug have shown real speed. Koernig should be a first rate contender at 200 metres and the German 400-metre relay team is capable of extending its rivals. Metzner is a 400 metre prospect. It took a world record shotput by Kuck to beat Hirschfeld four years ago. Shortly after the last Olympics the big German weight- tosser set a new world record of 52 feet, 7 1-2 inches. This has lately been slightly bettered by Franz Douda, the Czechoslova- kian star, as well as by Leo Sex- ton of the United States, in- doors. Thug Hirschfled"s work will be cut out for him. Siewert, the best German de- cathlon performer, has. scored over 7,800 points, but there are no outstanding jumpers or hurd- lers.
