THE ENQUIRER, CINCINNATI, MONDAY, MAY 25, 1936 17 OTHER LEAGUE RESULTS. WINNER CROSSING FINISH IN WALK TOLEDO SERIES RED BATTING AVERAGES "STROLL" Won By Detroit Man. til Lowell (Mass.) Hiker Next In 31-Mile Walk. Victor's Time Is 5:16.16 One Second Separates Second And Third Contestant. Ernie Crosbie, of the Detroit Track Club, Detroit, won the United States 50,000 meter walking championship yesterday, over a course starting at Neville, Ohio, and ending at the grounds of the Cincinnati Gymnasium and Athletic Club, walking the distance, xvhich is equivalent to 31 miles and 125 yards, in 5 hours, 16 minutes and 16 seconds.

Crosbie finished second to Henry "Hank" Cieman, of Toronto, Ont, in the 1934 and 1935 national championship 50,000 meter walks on this same course. Yesterday Cicman, obviously in distress at the finish of the race, finished fifth, 7 minutes and 22 seconds behind the winner. His record time over, this course of 4 hours and 57 minutes, established last year, still stands. Yesterday's hot cunshine was responsible for the slower time. Only 25 competitive walkers, out of a starting field of 69, finished.

Albert J. Mangan, of Lowell, furnished one of the biggest thrills of the race. A lad of 21, with no previous experience in walks of this distance, he caught up with the veteran Cieman, who was leading the field about five miles from the finish line, and held the lead almost to the Gym club grounds before Crosbie, noted as a slow 'starter and fast finisher, went around him. Mangan finished second, two minutes and 39 seconds behind Crosbie, his official ime being 5 hours, 18 minutes and 55 seconds. Ernest Koehler, of the German-American Athletic Club of New Y'ork, and John M.

Deni, of the Metropolitan Club, Pittsburgh, staged almost a neck and neck finish, Koehler taking third place one second ahead of the Pitts-burgher. The first man to reach the finish line was W. Mountain of the Maroon Athletic Club of Hamilton, Ontario. He was entered in the recreational division of the race, whose entries started from Neville at 8:50 a. m.

TWO STREAKS END As Millers Twice Trim Brewers Eight Homers In First. Minneapolis, May 24 (AP) Minneapolis ended its four-game losing streak and at the same time stopped Milwaukee's winning string at five by winning both ends of today's double-header, the first game by 18-7 and the second 5-3. Eight home runs figured in the opener, with the Millers getting five of them. The second contest was a mound duel between Joe Heving of the visitors and Reggie Grabowski and Jake Baker of the home club, Grabowski going out for a pinch hitter in the seventh and getting credit for the victory when the Millers reached Heving for three runs. Two more runs in the eighth clinched the second victory.

The Millers left tonight for Kansas City for a four-game series. (FIRST GAME.) MILWAUKEE. I MINNEAPOLIS. AB.H.PO.AIRyan.ss Morgan, rf 5 1 4 OIBrnwnc.rf WUburn.ss 5 2 4 Uhall.cf 6 0 2 York. lb 2 2 11 1iHolland.3b Lsabs.lf 4 10 3 10 Brenzel.c 4 11 Hope, 2b 4 0 2 IHTauscher.p Braxton.

Winning Pitcher Learned yesterday that Our Reds are angling for the services "Ripper" Collins, veteran first sacker of the St. Louis Cardinals. Collins has been riding the since Johnny Mize took over the Initial hassock duties several weeks ago. Johnny Fischer's Cincinnati's young Walker Cupper, informed Sparks last night that he positively would compete in the men's city amateur championship at the Terrace Park Country Club next -month, unless the strenuous first-year law exams at the University of Cincinnati takes too much out '-of him during the next 10 days. Long John hasn't hit a shct for 10 days, having devoted all time to studying.

He is 12 pounds underweight, and fears that if loses any more weight he won't bo able to withstand the strain of an entire week's play under a boiling June sun. Contrary to the opinion of wiseacres, there is absolutely "highhatishness" in Long John's makeup. He isn't afraid of losing' any prestige by dropping the derl, cision to some unknown in the city classic. Fischer has been playin golf long enough to know that a Sarazen or a Hagen can "knocked off" by some unknown" in an 18-hole match. Fischer also appreciates the great match-play ability of such golfer as Neil Ransick, city and state ama teur champion; Milt Cook, three-" time city amateur champion; Allen Joslin, Doug Hill, Don Gill, Milt Schloss, Wally Chadwell, and a host'1 of up-and-coming young stars.

And" also realizes that nothing will tend to sharpen his competitive blade more for the coming Walker Cup matches and the national amateur than to cross niblicks with the besth in this district. Our guess is that Long John will be on the "firing line" in both the, city title chase and the Kentucky State amateur at Summit Hills" Country Club the week following" the city. 'j Herr Maxie Schmeling says that Young Stribling gave him his tough-. est fight. Which means that Nazi Max has somehting to look forward to on June 18.

This column has a pet peeve, sev- eral of them in fact. To give this one its proper place it will be desig-'. nated as Pet Peeve No. 1. It is directed at those golfers who, persist in drawing lines on the put- ting greens with their fingers.

They do this when they lift a ball that Is in another player's way. Sometimes they claw the greens'1' so violently as a man scratching the seven-year itch. And there are those who apparently figure theyi" can't dig deep enough with their' fingers so they use one of those sharp-pointed tees. One line or a mark isn't enough- for some players. They must drav? two, making either a dagger or an to mark the spot where the ball rested before it was lifted.

As a result greens often are so marked and scarred after a heavy day's play that persons not wise to the ways of golfers might figure somebody was trying to draw maps I or pictures on the greens. 1 Generally the fellows who com- -t plain the loudest about the condi- 1 tions of the greens, the tiny weeds and foreign grasses in them, are the worst offenders. They don't seem to realize that the marks often handicap the players following them and that it may be several weeks before the marks heal. Considerate golfers when they must lift a ball, will place a small coin, blade of grass or cigarette i ashes. It's even better to guess at the spot than draw those lines.

WAS PEPPER'S PAN BED? After losing a close game to the New York Giants on the recent Eastern trip, Pepper Martin and Dizzy Dean decided to have a little fun at the expense of Branch Rickey, Vice President and General Manager of the Gas House Gang. Pepper called Rickey shortly after midnight, placing a piece of paper over the mouthpiece to dis- guise his voice. He announced him- self as a New Tork newspaperman and asked Mr. Rickey his opinion of the ball game. "I'll be frank about it," said Rickey, "we lost the ball -game be- cause of the stupidity of Pepper Martin.

If he had an ounce of brains to guide that ton of muscle he carts around, we would have won quite handily. Is that According to the great Dizzy, -Pepper lost his power of speech and dropped the receiver, According to information received by this column, two members of the English Walker Cup team are newspapermen. Sam McKlnley and Jock McLean are the two Scots 't who eke out a living dashing out obits and chasing ambulances and patrol wagons. Both are rated as excellent golfers. It Is rather hard to believe that a couple of typewriter athletes are good enough to make any golf team.

Newspapermen are usually notoriously poor golfers. Some of them have been playing golf more than a dozen years and still celc- 3 brate by getting "high" every time they crack the century mark. i MINOR GAMES. SPICUI. DISr-ATCH TO THE KSQU1RKR.

Columbus Ohio, May 24 (AP) Larry Snyder, Ohio State track coach, said today that Jesse Owens, In winning the low hurdles in the Big Ten meet yesterday in 23.5 seconds, nine -tenths of a second slower than the world record he set a year ago, "ran the greatest race of his career." The dusky speed king missed his stride at the start and had to put his left foot ovfer the first hurdle. He tried to make up a stride between the first and second, missed, and splintered the top bar. Still off balance as he reached the third hurdle he splintered it into three sections, hut stayed on his feet.

Snyder estimated that at that point Owens was last by six yards and almost ten yards behind the leaders. Then Owens kicked into his regular stride and cut down on the other five to win by two feet. Frishkorn, T. O. McLoughlin, M.
