Although one of the most capable ort critics, especially on boxing, clientele was by no means restricted to followers of the sports pages. As a coiner of slang, he had , if any, equals. Through his daily ‘toons he originated scores of new expressions which quickly caught the New York, May 3.—Should 1929 {witness the discovery of a crown prince of amateur golf, the year will be worth labeling a success, no mat- ter what else occurs. The untainted-by-sordid-golf bat- talion has been laboring along under implacable domination of that benev- olent despot, Bobby Jones, for so many years that it has grown accus- tomed to it. Annually the amateurs have renewed the Atlantan’s commis- sion as emperor of all the fairways and have been content to battle among themselfes for whatever glory there was in finishing “close to Bob.” The thought of actually whipping him has never entered their minds. But despite the fact that Jones’ «sweep of the championship at Brae Burn last fall was the most conclusive in his long career, it has dawned upon the powers of the amateur world that his is not an indefinite reign. One of these fine autumns it will be found that a combination of the growing re- sponsibilities of Jones’ law practice, the cares of his family life and the Physical inroads of the years that are mounting on his shoulders will have done. something that rival woods and irons apparently are unable to accomplish. Even Bob Jones will trail along with the Tildens, Dempseys and Alexan- ders—and if that happens within an unexpectedly short time the amateurs have no one in sight to replace him. ee * Over on the professional side there are Horton Smith, Ed Dudley, tiny Henry Cinci, and a half dozen others from whose ranks the leaders will come when the present crop of Ha- sie Sarazens and Armours has gone along. There is no such group of pre- tenders operating under Mr. Jones. Within the last five years, which have seen Jones victor on four oc- casions, George Von Elm, the Detroit realtor, has made the most serious threat. The blond ex-Californian de- feated Jones in the final in, 1926 and went up to the title round two years before at Merion, only to be de- feated, 9 and But Von Elm, sparkling though his fertile brain came “Twenty-three, Skidoo,” “Yes, We Have No Bananas,” “Hard-Boiled ‘Dumb Dora,” “Finale Hopper,” Drug-Stere Cowboy,” “Apple Sauce,” “Cake Eater,” “The Cat's Meow,’ “Nickel Nurser,’ ‘Nobody Home,’ “The First Hundred Years Are the Hardest,” “For Cryin’ Out Loud,” “You Tell 'Em,” and literally scores of other slang expressions that have pt into every-day use.

GOLF WORLD EAGERLY SEEKS ONE TO DEFEAT BOBBY JONES automatically barred from considera- tion; Evans’ bid was probably the last that old war horse ever will make. In 1925 there appeared at Oakwood a trim youth who for a time loomed as an answer to the amateur's prayer. Watts Gunn came north more as a traveling companion to his chum, Bob Jones, than anything else, and remained to meet Robert in the final. All in all, it was one of the most col- orful days the game in this country has ever seen when the two home town buddies fought it out over the green hills of western Pennsylvania. Gunn was acclaimed the next ama- teur monarch, but not to this day has he equaled the golf he displayed four — ago, and it seems now he never will. Another stripling, Roland Macken- zie, sprang from a Washington, D. C., high school to the front rank almost over night, but he, too, has not been able to match the pace neces- sary to become a menace, And there is George Voight, who at times shows signs of greatness. xk * All of which leaves the amateur field as open as a barnyard gate. Some profess to see podsibilities in Gene Homans and George Dunlap, the eastern collegians. Maurice Mc- Carthy Jr., son of the professional at Old Flatbush, occasionally rises to heights that indicate hidden springs of talent that some day may come to the surface. Alderwood, Ore., thinks much of a pair of youngsters—Don Moe and Frank Dolp—who are doubtless com- ers. And George Dunlap of Maple- ‘wood is gradually accumulating 2 bag- ful of good shots. The east offers another prospective champion in T. Suffern Tailer, whose father was one of the powers of golf before his untimely death not long ago. Tailer competed for the first time in 1928 and went down in the opening round before Harrison John- ston, but his play excited no little But to pick out any from this group as Jones’ successor would be hazard- new Tilden.
