You see, Joe has bewildering array of shots in his category. And. I cannot get away from the impres- sion that when he is in a competi- tive event Joe can’t help speculat- ing if it would be better to play the: shot this way, or that, way, or ;2 third way, all of which he knows he can do. Fade it or hold it up from the other side, draw this one -in, or cut it sharply and ride the ¢ross-wind. Joe can do these things. He do too many ‘for his own good in tournament play, I fancy. And when a golf shot is pores with the least trace of mental indecision to another shot or club—well, too ften it doesn’t come off. iJess Sweetser a terrific beating. | KEELER SAYS Jones’ achievement in again ing the British open in record breaking figures overshadows every- thing, of course. It brings assur- ance, furthermore, to his friends who were bitterly disappointed by his jownfall in the American open, Many tear was shed at the supposed pas- ing of the world’s greatest medal player. He's lost his grip; he's shot his bolt—those were the whispered comments now hushed. Now Jones’ was not a lonesome achievement among the amateurs. His protege, Watts Gunn, gave a ibrilliant exhibition, capable of win- ning any match play championship, when he battered young Roland Mac- kerfzie to earth in the final of the ‘i intercollegiate. He also annexed his state title during idle moments. Gunn Is Serious Contender * Those two victories proved Gunn is a golfer in his own right — not a shadow of his famous pal. They proved it was no lukey streak that brought him gloriously to the finals at Oakmont two years ago. Gunn, in that championship, -r t is too bad Jess will not get a chance to reverse the verdict at Minekahda, for his health limits him to his 18 holes a day, George Von Elm will be in tip-top hape. The clash between Jones and ‘on Elm will be worth traveling half a continent to sec. The strutting renadier deserved his 1926 triumph over the Atlanta wizard. He will once more be the hope of the far west which is secking the 1928 ama- teur tournament site. Voight Looks Good George Voight will be watched. The sporting element, always looking for an overnight flash to upset the dope, will keep their eyes glued upon the sensational Washington marks- man, There is no question but what ama- cur golf is getting classy in this country, Business among the simon- pures is looking up. The boys are no chumps—as many a pro who lost his shirt betting in a friendly mixed foursome will sadly tell you. Only one finishing touch is neces- to make the week-end at Mine- kahda a roiotous success. That would be the presence of Edwin H. Haley, the hitherto unknown young American who all but upset the blinking English tournament this summer. If he can be induced to make a visit home this fall American fans are in for a rare golfing treat. Even as it is, the affair is going to be some picnic, q Dugan Will Meet Christy Grens at Hazelton Friday Jimmy Dugan, Bismarck boxer, is to meet a worthy opponent Friday night when he comes up against Christy Grens, Linton light het ad weight, at Hazelton, Grens is credited with a number of decisive wins in his territory and fans are all set for a real battle. Lo- fans are confident that Jimmy can crash through with a win, as he did with Ralph McGirl of Elgin a short time ago, ht is set to go 10 rounds, but Bismarck boxing enthusiasts bi lieve Jimmy will dispose of Grens before the allotted time is up.
