Early performances at Ebbets Field, however, look as if somebody already had done a little ‘building with the current season in mind.

New York's Giants, scoring in two big innings, trimmed the Braves 7-3 for their fourth straight victory. A homer by Mel Ott started them off n a three-run burst in the second.

As in shots with the longer clubs, a long, low follow-through will be an aid to direction. Lidgerwood Prepares For Baseball Season Lidgerwood, N.

ANDREWS British Scoff at Rigid Training In Preparation for Friendly Game Here’s something that will be front- page news May 12: “The American team wins Walker Cup matches for eighth successive time.” If it wasn’t for British photogra- phers who like to take pictures of this huge piece of silverware with the cap- tains of both teams, the U. 8. Golf Association could save shipping ex- penses by leaving the cup where it is now resting and will rest for some time. During the last two years the Tom- mies have made futile attempts to wrest the Walker Cup from Uncle Sam. If the present team does not make a better showing than the Brit- ish have in recent years, chances are this international match will be aban- doned. ‘There was some question as to whether the matches were to be played in 1932, British writers severe- ly criticized the team that year, say- ing it was a farce to continue the challenge. ek * Why can’t British Walker Cup amateurs make as good a showing as their professional brothers do in Ry- der Cup play? And why are Amer- ican amateurs so superior? The an- swer is, practice and: training. In reply to criticism in which he scolded the team for not training, an English writer was told that Walker Cup matches were friendly and that they were amateur matches and not & contest for trained gladiators. In England, apparently, it is undignified to work at a game. ‘This year the rounds will be played at the Vatican of golf—the Royal and Ancient Golf Club at St. Andrews, the most famous public links in the world. Here, in 1923 and 1926, the Britons came closest to possessing the cup, losing by a single point. Both years the score was 614 to 5%. ‘Weather will be a big factor in de- ciding the issue. If it is blowing that mist in from the sea, the Americans will be bothered with their second shots. Unlike American courses, St. Andrews does not have greens that afford a good target. Only a flag flutters on the green, and some greens serve for two holes. So large are they that often the player home in two is left with an 80-foot putt. ek k The British team was chosen with St. Andrews in mind. The selection committee was criticised for naming Roger Wethered. It was stated he was unreliable with the woods. But they forget that St. Andrews is two fairways wide with no rough between them.

Lanz, prominent in the welter- weight division contests at the North Dakota Golden Gloves tournament at Grand Forks during the winter, has done considerable fighting in western ‘wood Hills a year ago. The Gopher sophomore began play- ing golf 10 years ago at the age of 11. That is, he began playing on golf courses with his father and two older brothers 10 years ago. But he scarcely ‘can remember when he first began knocking a golf ball around his yard with a castoff iron.

His loose, free swing soon attracted attention among older golfers but it took him three seasons to acquire the consistency necessary for title play. At 26 he won the state junior title and competed in the state amateur. Since that time he has competed twice in the national amateur, in the Minnesota state amateur and in the national open as well as several other outstanding tournaments.
