In putting and short approaching, where physical strength is not re- quired, women golfers should be, and many are, as good as the men stars. Mrs. Glenna Colett Vare, out- standing American women player over the last 10 years, declares good put- ting is a matter of lightness of touch. smooth stroking and complete relax- ation. Those annoying four-footers are not nearly so nerve-racking or demoral- izing to men as they are to women players. A man makes his decision A woman's mind is apt to stray from her original decis- ion. Women can accurately deter- mine the slope and speed of the green but many forget it when they address the ball. Some of them think more of keeping the head still and looking at the ball, which is only half of the picture. Helen Wills Moody Denies Rumors of Tennis Retirement Queen of Courts Off to Europe to Gain New Laurels in Foreign Play New York, April 26.—(4)—Helen Wills Moody may consider retirement from tennis competition in ten years. Then again she may not. The undisputed queen of world ten- inis, here for only a brief visit before she sails on the Aquitania for another invasion of Europe, smilingly denied she was ready to quit the game as re- ports have had it at intervals during g|the past year or two. “I should say that perhaps after ten years more I shall retire,” Mrs. Moody said when reporters put the question. Only a few hours after her arrival here she was on the courts for a prac- tice session against Harry C. Brunie of New York, a capable player in- doors. But the national women’s champion beat him 6-2, 10-9, play be- ing interrupted before a decision was reached in the second set. Other games postponed, weather. | OUT OUR WAY BiG ICK WOULD LIKE To BE LIKE TH GUY IN A RESTRONT + WHO.

Trailing the Phillies by one run in the last inning of the twelfth yester- day, the Braves got men on first and second with only one out. The next batter, Wes Schulmerich, belted a ‘single to right. It looked like the ty- ing wallop, at least. But Wally Berger, tearing down to second, was hit by the ball and was out automatically under an old major league rule. Robert Worthington was held at second. There went the rally and with it the ball game, 4 to 3. ‘The Phils had scored what proved the winning run in the first of the twelfth when relief pitcher Ben Cant- well gave them three passes, the third with the corners crammed. The defeat, their first in seven starts, dropped the Braves into a tle for first with the idle Chicago Cubs, each with eight victories and three losses. In the only other National League tilt that survived a day of widespread cold and rain, the St. Louis Cardinals received tight pitching from Bill Hal- lihan in the pinches to make it two straight from Cincinnati, 4 to 2. Playing without Pepper Martin, who will be out several weeks with a shoulder injury, the chamipons jump- ed on Red Lucas for four hits and three runs in the sixth inning.

Walker Favored to Beat Levinsky MONTE WEAVER ONCE ASPIRED TO BE COLLEGE PROFESSOR Sensational Young Washington Pitcher Wanted to Teach Mathematics New York, April 26—(P)—A dark, slender young fellow named Monte ‘Weaver sat on the edge of a sofa and twisted his soft gray hat in his hands. His manner was almost apologetic. “I throw them some curves and some fast balls, about like I did at Baltimore,” he said. “It doesn’t seem much different.” It has made a lot of difference to Walter Johnson and the Washington Senators. “He's a fine boy,” Walter had said earlier, “and a fine pitcher. He's as nice as he can be. He goes out there and he throws them right where he’s supposed to. He's a big league pitch- er.” ‘Weaver, 25 years old now, gave up & career as a college instructor in mathematics to play professional ball. As far back as he can remember he has been playing ball and liking mathematics. The logic of the one has crept into the other. “I suppose you should have six chances out of ten of getting a .350 hitter out,” he reflected. “Of course it doesn’t go like that. He hits the first one and they don’t bring him back to give you your other five chances.” Monte'’s & very pleasant young fel- low, with a nice grin, not at all im- pressed that he has beaten the Ath- letics twice so far this year. He's six feet tall, rather slender but his 175 pounds are well distributed. There's no baseball background whatever in’ his family. His father, back in Lan- sing, in the North Carolina moun- tains, is just a fan. “It was too cold in the mountains in the spring for a high school team,” said Weaver, “but my dad owned a piece of ground where we could play Saturdays. I sneaked in anywhehe they’d let me, catch mostly, and the outfield. He has but one baseball idol and one great reverence, and it’s no hitter such as Al Simmons or Babe Ruth. His eyes light at the sight of Wal- ter Johnson. “Yes,” he says, “and I'll bet he could still beat any club in this league.” Expect to Wind Up Interclass Tourney Track athletes at the Bismarck high school were expected to swing into action Tuesday afternoon wher. competition in the interclass track meet was to bé resumed. A number of events were run off last week with the seniors walking off with a substantial lead in points an- nexed. Bad weather caused the second sec- tion of the tourney to be called off Friday. and Monday. sisting that “Wilson or no Wilson,, I'd rather have Hoiman.” More to see if he could “take it” than anything else, apparently, one leather lunged rooter Jeaned over and at the chunky, sawed-off veteran: “Get up off your knees, Hack. We know you ain’t that short.” ‘When Hack looked up and grinned the populace settled back half con- vineed that everything had been for the best after all. Gotta Hit But things happened to Hack short- ly thereafter. Perhaps he was trying too hard to please the most difficult fans to please anywhere on baseball's wide circuit, including St. Louis and Cincinnati. He fanned, and there were roars of disgust such as were reserved in the past only for the whiffings of “Hoi- man himself.” He was all but skulled by a fly ball that went over his head for a double as he slithered around in the mud, trying to get his squat bulky frame in motion in two direc- tions at once. Hack got the full measure of Brook- lyn discomfiture just as he recovered the ball and managed to get it back to the infield. “You can’t do that,” bitterly insisted the leather-lurtged patriot who had been so friendly in his earlier greet- ‘ing. eae ain’t no Hoiman. You don't hit.” The golf ball situation appears to have turned the corner, anyway. This time a year ago the squawks over the “balloon” sphere echoed over the fairways from one coast to the other. Old Joe Duffer was flying the distress signal and he didn’t hesitate to let the game’s ruling powers know about it. Now there isn’t a single complaint ‘on file in the offices of the United States Golf association. So much improved are things, in fact, that H. H. Ramsay, the genial chief executive of the U. S. A, and his associates now can move around freely among friends and the gen- eral public without being obliged to duck. All because they listened to the wails of 1931 and authorized the manufacturers to add seven-one- hundredths of an ounce to the weight of the official ball. ‘The heavier “balloon” ball so far has met with universal approval. It doesn’t cure a slice, bounce automatic- ally out of traps or whistle in the tall way.

The Rumson bulldog reached Chi- cago weighing 172 pounds, and de- clared himself to be in top condition for the wild-swinging Kingfish. He Plans to weigh in at about the same figure, giving away upward of 25 pounds to Levinsky. The black eye was offered as proof that he has been training more seri- ously than usual and will be ready for @ knockout effort Friday. Levinsky also is about ready for the test, and he too, figures that a knock- lout victory will be the only satisfac- tory result. Walker was a 7 to 5 fa- vorite, but there was little wagering. The stadium box office department reports an advance sale of $33,000, in- dicating the attraction will draw close to $75,000.
