HOTEL CHICAGO Will's, Shark’s, Ro IN BRITISH OPEN Sweeny Advances Through Quarter Finals as Wherle, Chapman Drop Out Sandwich, Eng., May 28.—(?)—Rob- ert Sweeny, an American who lives in England, became the last hope for a United States winner of the British amateur golf championship Friday as the two other remaining United States contenders fell by the wayside. Sweeny eliminated his companion, Wilford Wehrle, of Racine, Wis., 3 and 2, and Dick Chapman of Greenwich, Conn., went down on the 19th hole to Count Alaric Bendern, the erstwhile Alaric DeForest. Wehrle lost the velvety touch he has displayed in the earlier rounds on the greens. Sweeny, getting off to a flying start, won three of the first five holes, turned three up, and was never threatened. Chapman lost on the 19th hole after three valiant comebacks had brought him all square both on the 9th and 18th greens, His drives have been sv wild that, after almost a week of play, he still scarcely knows the con- ditions of the Royal St. George's fair- ways. In another evenly contested quar- ter-final match, J. J. F. Pennink, the English champion, was eliminated by Lionel Munn, two up.

Umpire, Ray Leinhan. Scorer, J. Burckardt, Foot-Saver Shoes for Men Scheduled for Round of PGA Tournament Friday - Pittsburgh, May 28—(4)—The pro- fessionals championship Friday pro- vided the match golf has wanted for @ long time, Harry Cooper against Tony Manero. The hard-luck guy of the links faced the fellow who came out of no- where to nudge him out of the Na- tional Open championship last sum- mer. Cooper had fired pars and birdies over Baltusrol’s rugged course for a 284, lowest total in history, a per- formance that bettered the long standing Chick Evans-Bob Jones’ 286 record. But in with sunset and dusk came the swarthy Manero, riding a flock of birdies and shepherded by the veteran Gene Sarazen. He banged putts in with a magic wand and Har- ry’s hopes collapsed under Tony’s marvelous 282. Never Won Major Title There he was, a player his own fellow professionals praised as the greatest golfer in the world, and yet dame fortune decreed that his super- lative performance should go for naught. Day after day, golf knows no player in his class, but he’s never been able to win a major title. Some folk just aren't lucky. Harry lost a playoff for the open crown ten years ago. He probably wondered when he started out this morning wether it would be Manero again, or another fellow this time, who'd blast his hopes. Professional golfers hold few grudges and Tony and Harry are good friends. Tony, who's been worried about his pretty wife, convalescing from @ recent operation, feels he has his game under control. Their match Friday marked the first time they’ve ever met in hand- to-hand conflict. The other 36-hole fourth round contests Friday, all “naturals,” send Champion Denny Shute, Boston, against Jimmy Hines, Garden City, N. Y.; Medalist Byron Nelson, Read- ing, Pa. against Ky Laffoon, Chi- cago, and Henry Picard, Hershey, Pa., against Harold McSpaden, Win- chester, Mass.

At least eight ‘and probably twelve teams are ex- pected to join the circuit.
