Al ready chins are wagging, discussing favorites for the game's hef crown. Two Bobbies—Jones and Cruick- shank—are the most formidable as- pirants, They are firmly entrenched de- spite the known presence of the Hagens, Diegels, Farrells, Sarazens, and even the sensational’ newcomer, George: Voight.

The same perfeet golfing mech: ism was in evidence, the same beau- tiful rhythm, the same characteris- tic finesse that gained the American and British open titles last season, Wonderful F And look at the wonderful play of Cruickshank. He established him- self as the south’s winter champion of all time. He made a clean sweep of the major meets starting out on the Pacific coast three months ago and blasting his way overland to end up with five major titles hanging from his belt, second and third in “two other tourneys and a wagonlond of gelt. The wee Scot knocked off $: the Los Angeles open with ‘a card; then he took the San Antonio open, the second largest purse on the schedule, with a 292; then he set out for Shreveport, where he landed » third with a 287; undaunted, he came to’ Hot Springs and won another bag of dough, coming in first with a 29 in the Florida open an unknown cad- die, Walter Burkowsk: alled Burke’ for short, flashed unbeatable golf to ‘nose out his 290, which took second shekels; teaming with Tommy Ar- mour. his rival, he won the interna- tional four-ball’ sweepstakes, : Another Round Needed This match was a classic. At the end of 36 holes all were square, necessitating another round. At the conclusion Bobby and Tommy were victors, 8 and 7. Climaxing this onslaught, he trailed Hagen in the north and south open only to crash through with a 69 to win his fifth major title. His av- erage score for seven meets is 291. No, wonder the two Bobbies are ‘Aegitimate favorites. Oakmont will ibevan orgy of par clipping when they glash and the dope has them leading the field like a coupe of jack rabbits ahead: of a prairie fire.
