Today’s Sport
Parade
By HENRI M.LLMOKE
United Press Staff Correspondent.
NEW YORK. July 27. ,<U>E-Putting
the sports shot here and there:
The amazing 800 meter race that
lanky John Woodruff ran in the Pan-
American games at Dallas never will
go down in the books as a record . . .
Because the track on which he ran
the distance in 1:47A was six feet
short . . . The discrepancy was due
to faulty marking out of the lanes on
the curves . . . It's a shame that the
distance wasn't correct because the
Pittsburgh stepper beat the record by
two full seconds and the six feel more
wouldn't have made a great deal of
difference. . . . Speaking of Dallas
the games recalled It as an unworked
gold mine for track and field stars
. . . The meet drew 25.000 customers
which brokp the previous high attend-
ance mark for the shorts and lini-
ment boys by 21.000 ... If you arc
in the vicinity ol Eseanaba. Mich., on
August 13 you might do worse than
stop over and watch the world's cham-
ptonahip log roiling tournament . . .
This Isn't the kind the politicians play
tn Washington, but the kind where
lumberjack*, wearing .-qvlked shoes
attempt to spin one another off logs
floating in a river . . . The sport ol
“birling." as it is knows, is an out-
growth ol the days of the log drives
when it was the duty of lumberjacks
to keep the timber from jamming . . .
It was a busineaa every bit as dan-
gerous as playing tag with a leopard
Word conies from BUI Hainan that
the golf pros are planning to gang up
on Harry Cooper in the 810.WJ0 St
Paul open tournament this week . . .
TLey've got their work cut out. be-
cause in six tournaments over the
Kellar course Cooper Las played 28
rounds, and is 55 strokes under par
tor the 168 holes . . . Sol Strauss, the
eminent Broadway barrister who han-
dles tile legal business for Mike Jac-
obs and 30th Century Spurting club
arrived in Englaud on July 4 on his
recent trip to kidnap'' Tommy Parr,
and spent the entire day shopping fot
fireworks . . . The Chicago Cubs are a
group of amateur magicians . . . They
spend their time making coins disap-
pear. eggs arrive from nowhere, and
diamonds and spades fade into thin
air ... . Tom Yawkey, the millionaire
owner erf the Boston Red Sox. has a
five dollar bet with a sportawriter
that Buck Newsom will beat Wes Fer-
rell the first time they hook up on
the mound.
Babe Ruth wants a revolution to
start so he can get on the side against
the golfers who can put well ... If
the Babe could sink his share of four
and five footers he would be a threat
to the best pros . . . Babe reached
an all time putting low the other day
when he lost a match in a tourna-
ment by four putting from five feet
Jack Dempsey his grown hall an
inch since he quit fighting . . . those
knockdowns Tommy Parr has been
scoring In training workouts are strict-
ly the Malarkey . . . The thuth U

decent punch . . . The Yankees can't
nuas setting a new season^ record fot
attendance . . . With 7T games to
gq the Bombers have been watched
by 1,371.490 paying customers. Gabby
Hartnett says that first baseman Rip
Collins' ability to steal signals ha*
been of more value to the Cubs than
his bat. and that's saying plenty . . .
Benito Mussolini is said to be the real
owner of Muscletone. the great trot,
ter which will meet Oreyhound in a
match race in August.
