ST NIMKOFF BAGS A DEAD PIGEON Only This Time It's a Horse, Hup Nancy, Involving $1,200 Loss By JOE LEE We all have our run of tough luck but L. H. Nimkof who has been building up a fair-sized string of horses through the claiming system, has a headache today that can match the 14 BROOKLYN EAGLE, THURSDAY, OCT. 15, 1942 Class Ladies To Open Fire in Bowling League 22 Five-Man Teams to Compete In Eagle Circuit Monday Nights -12 Combines in Women's Group By LOU E. COHEN Two more divisions of the Brooklyn Eagle Bowling League are set to swing under way the Ladies group this Saturday afternoon and Class Monday evening.

There are 12 teams in the Ladies division, five girls on each unit, and in Class there are 22 five-man units. In the competition, which is for the entire borough, two teams stand out Mique's Bar and Schultz's Sportswear. Mique's Bar, led by Fred Haslinger, is the defending champion. Schultz's won the Bay Ridge crown last season and is ad saddest tale of woe. Yesterday Mr.

Nimkoff paid exactly $1,200 for a dead horse Sound View Golf Play Puis Accent On Team Job Pro, Club Champion And Women's Leader Big Three in Benefit By RALPH TROST Sound View has everything set for the army benefit golf match Sunday. The club members have rallied 'round and put up enough cash to take care of all prizes. That leaves nothing to worry about now but the weather and the crowd. As early as last week there were 16 teams all set for the show. That not only meant that there were 18 clubs ready with their club champion, women's champion and club pro but also with the $25 entry.

The field should be double that now and higher by Sunday. This is a team job. The deciding issue is the total number of strokes taken by the pro, the club champion and the women's champion of each club. So every one's got a part in It. Lakeville Loses Hines Some clubs, like Winged Foot, have a mighty potent pro and also an amateur champion.

Craig Wood and Mark Stuart, for instance. But women's golf has never been a strong- pqjnt at Winged Foot. At Lakeville, for example, Ray and Ruth Torgerson are a tremendous pair. Were Jimmy Hines ready Lakeville'd make up a marvelous team. But recently Jimmy threw a log in the fire, got a splinter and, well, Jimmy's out of golf for five weeks.

Just like that. Plainfield, in Charley and Laddie Whitehead, make up a tremendous team. But there's a sort of a missing link, a FLYING FEET Eight hooves are off the ground os Lady home in the first race at Jamaica yesterday.

If 8ipt RESHEVSKY TWO UP IN CHESS JUNKET Kashdan Trails as Bandwagon Touring Army Camps Moves to Plattsburg Barracks By HERMANN HELMS Having played at Fort Jay and Camp Upton last week, Isaac I.

Kashdan of Brooklyn champions of the United States, are today on their way to the Plattsburg (N.Y.) barracks to finish the series of three games arranged by the USO Camp Shows In behalf of the He tered a claim on Hup Nancy, a four-year-old chestnut filly, before the running of the third ce. It looked like a good mqve, for the public had installed Hup N- cy the '-vortte and she left the post at 85. The distance was a mile and five furlongs. The filly broke down in' the back stretch and had to be removed in an ambulance. Upon examination in the stable, it was found she had ruptured the tendons in both forelegs and had to be destroyed.

No Insurance, Either According the rules in a claiming race, once a claim is registered, the moment the horse goes to the post, he beer tes the property thereafter of the person who entered the claim, which left Mr. Nimkoff the sole owner of the animal who never found her way to the barn of her new owner. Even the insurance, If any, terminated when the filly changed hands. This is not the first time this has occurred, but it is an unusual Incident. The writer recalls the day at Tropical Park in 1937 when Hirsch Jacobs, Brooklyn trainer, put in a claim on Character, a seven-year-old gelding.

He broke a leg In the first quarter-mile and had to bo destroyed. Ten thousand four hundred and forty-five dollars was bet in the win, place and show pools on Hup Nancy. The first event the day wound up with the Judges disqualifying Lady Fl res after Jockey Johnny Westror, lodged a complaint that the Dorl-nd filly came over on his mount, forcing him to take up through the Lady Flares was disqualified and Miss Monarch was returned the winner at $10.70 To further confuse the customers, the second race was a photo finish, but it appeared to the experts who have been calling them for years that Fairy Manhurst haa won by a full However, the Jones came-a gave the decision to Eye for Eye, who closed fast to get the decision by a short lip. It seems all the horses on the outside in close finishes get the preference when the pictures are developed Headoverheels was another example of the outside finisher getting the nod Trainers have plenty of headaches these days to get exercise boys to gallop horses In the mornings It is expected women will be hired to take over this occupation The first girl to take up the exercise routine is Millie La Mond, a 16-year-old miss from Park Ridge, N.

Accom- panying them are Kenneth Hark-ness, referee, and I. A. Horowitz, commentator.

Reshevsky won the first game because Kashdan's energetic attack, involving the sacrifice of a pawn, failed of its objective. In the second game Kashdan again put on pressure by castling on the queen's side of the board in a Ruy Lopez. The 16th move by Reshevsky invited trouble and Kashdan promptly accommodated him.

LET 'ER ROLL! BUY V. 8. WAR BONDS AND SAVINGS STAMPS Block, Gordon To Lead Stars Against Dexters Cy Block, whom the Dodgers permitted to get out of their clutches only to be rescued from the minors by the Cubs, will be at second base for the Minor League Stars, who engage the Bushwlcks In a double-header at Dexter Park on Sunday afternoon. Cy, a product of the same fertile Parade Grounds that gave Pitcher Bill Lohrman, a recent exhibitor In Max Rosner's ball yard, to the Giants, led the Sally League in clubbing In 1941. He was purchased by the Cubs and spent the past campaign picking up additional experience with Tulsa in the Texas League.

Cy was reputed to be the best-looking prospect in the minors, and if the army doesn't get him he will figure prominently in the Cubs' rebuilding plans for 1943. Block is no newcomer to Dexter Park, as he played there with a similar team a year ago and made a big hit with the fans, Gordon ai Third Playing alongside of Block will be Richie Klaus, Giant farmhand who went so well with Fort Smith, winding up with a batting average of .293. The real treat lor the Rosner patrons will be found at third base in the person of Sid Gordon, still another member of the Giants' chain gang. The cash customers made a spe cial request that Gordon be included in the lineup and Rosner met their demands by signing him for the bargain bill. The Flatbush coalman is one of the most promis ing recruits Manager Ott on his roster.

He finished the season at the Polo Grounds and looked like a million dollars in the few games in which he played. With Bob Chipman, Dodger southpaw from Montreal, and Herb Karper, a fellow portsidcr from Kansas City, a Yankee farm, down to do the chucking, and Rosner still in the market for other big-game bush leaguers, the Dexters' followers appear tto be in for a fine afternoon's entertainment.

Before the season opened, Crisler forecast that there would be greater emphasis on offensive play than ever before. Figures released today by the American Football Statistical Bureau substantiate him.

Leading the nation's collegiate teams in total offense was Ohio State. In romping to victories over Fort Knox, Indiana and Southern California, the Bucks have gained 1,016 yards rushing and 356 by passing to lead in total affense by a comfortable margin. Their average per game was 457.3 yards against 448.5 yards Georgia averaged in leading the parade a year ago. Runner-np was Tulsa University, which in three games has gained 1,252 yards for an average of 417.3. Georgia was in third place 402.3 yards average, Arizona fourth with 387 and Missouri fifth with 383.8.

The defense leader was Tulsa, which has given up an average of only 46 yards to three opponents. Manhattan was second with 71 yards per game, Illinois third with 76.3, Arizona fourth with 79.7, and Temple fifth with 85.3. Top team in passing was Columbia which has an average gain per Lgame of 250.3 yards through the air as the result of 37 completions In 66 attempts. Tulsa was second with an average of 206 yards per game, Princeton third with 170.5, Georgia fourth with 166 and Georgia Naval Cadets fifth with 161.3. Paul Govemali of Columbia led In total offense with 677 yards.

Rudy Mobley of Hardin-Simmons was the individual rushing leader with a net gain of 434 yards in 56 ball-carrying efforts. Lee Pletz of Pennsylvania was the top punter with an average of 47.5 yards on 12 punts. Brooklyn College Netmen Drop Fall Match to Drew Special to the Brooklyn Eagle Madison, N.

U.C.L.A. Forward Wall Shows Way Los Angeles, Oct. 15 (U.P.) The Bruins of the University of California at Los Angeles are living up to the old football saying that the backs get all the glory but the line does most of the work. U. C.

L. A. sky-rocketed Into prominence last week when Its lightly regarded eleven thoroughly trounced the Oregon State Beavers, 30 to 7. With the Rose Bowl champions, previously co-favored with Washington State for the Pacific Coast Conference title, beaten, football fans In this section suddenly remembered line coach Ray Richard's early season warning that the U. C.

L. A. forward wall would "rock a few guys back on their heels." That's exactly what happened to the Beaver line when it bumped up against U. C. A.

Averaging ten pounds to the man lighter than the opposition, the Bruins tore open huge holes for their light backs to go through. Richards, a former tackle from the University of Nebraska and later a professional with the Chicago Bears, Is a fundamentalist in his line coaching. "All you have to do is hit the other guy harder than he hits you," he said. "And this year I've got the linemen who can do it." The Bruins were keyed up for the game. They had vowed to win the game for Capt.

Don E. Brown, Comedian Joe E. Brown's son, who was killed two days before the clash. Young Brown was a former Bruin football player. BUY V.

A Habit With Wood The amateur-pro tournament at Meadow Brook (it was held Tuesday for a change because of the Monday being Columbus Day) drew a swell field. Tops among the players was the National Open and Canadian tltleholder, Craig Wood.

Tops among the scores was Craig Wood. It's sort of a habit. Craig whipped around Meadow Brook in 68, for all the wind. Mark Stuart, the recipient of only one stroke handicap, had a 74. Between them they worked, out a 65 and that was the winning best ball.

Joe Katz and Joe Phillips managed to get into second place with a 67 and Charley Sperber and Peter Cas-sella of Sound View took third with 68. Cassella and Pat Cicl, formerly playing pro at Meadow Brook, won the pro-pro. That Cicl, still the Long Island open champion, really knows his way around Meadow Brook and can score even when he's not feeling top-hole. In Nine a Jinx The surprise was that Jack Mal-lon and Ken Smith didn't grab off a big piece of prize money. Smith played superbly for nine holes-well enough to have made a prize position certain.

But they couldn't click on the in nine. Funny, too, for Mallon is a fine player and hits an amazing number of greens. Red Brosch brought out a newcomer, Earl Hindes. Every once in a while that fellow really rocks a golf ball. Off the first tee yesterday he rapped one that wasn't 15 yards short of the bunk on the right.

Practically 300 yards. But it'll be a long time before any one equals that blow of Snead's. With an entirely different wind blowing Snead once drove within 20 yards of the 18th a mere 34 yards. I saw that one. It was tremendous, a full 100 yards in front of Tommy Tailer's excellent effort.

Consider Transferring Army-Navy Grid Tilt Washington, Oct. 15 (U.P) A proposal to play the annual army-navy game at Annapolis, site of the naval academy, is being considered because of transportation difficulties, it was understood today. This was reported in the Eagle sometime ago by Ralph Trost. The navy said there was no official confirmation of the move at this time and that the game still was scheduled for Philadelphia. It was believed final decision would be left to President Roosevelt.

The White House Secretary, Stephen Early, said today he had no knowledge of such a proposal as yet. Poly Prep Booters Top P. S. A. L.

I ROD AND GU By DANIEL -LIONEL DENVER'S 'SCAT KIDS' HAVE A WORD FOR IT SPEED A BOOMLAY, A That's what the collective sound of the shotguns In this State probably would sound like If one could have heard them at dawn today when the duck hunters swung into action for the opener of the 1942 season.

An ambulance of ducks is promised by Ducks Unlimited, which has performed an outstanding breeding Job in the last few years. A record flight is anticipated by the directors of this ortraniaition. We think it appropriate at the outset of the shooting season to print the Ten Commandments of Safety recommended by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute.

The light and fast eleven has been scored on only once and then by Iowa State as the result of a break. Even D. U. Partisans admit the Pioneers do not have a stonewall line. Their backs are light and fast.

The quarterback. Jack Girtln, is an 18-year-old freshman. Most of the others are In Glrtln's class or the one Just ahead. But the Denver team starts moving at the first kickoff and never stops until the final gun. The backs put down their heads and charge.
