B Rhis reserve THATS wWHY ) v LIKE ; HEMJ e | S\, For the first time in seven years and for only the third time since the war, Walter Hagen will be without any national golf crown in his' possession at the plose of the 1930 campaign. The only other bar- ren seasons for the veteran werc 1920 and 1923. ‘When the “Haig” failed to qualify at Cherry Valley for the national P. G. A. championship, an event he has captured five times, he lost his Jast chance of the year to bag one of the main titles. was a bitter blow to the vet- cran, even though he took it with his characteristic good nature. Touring Australia and the Orient during the winter and spring, Ha- gen had passed up the British Open, which he had won fow times, in order to attempt a come- back at home. He had not won an American Open since 1919. He put in a siege of training for the battle of Interlachen and was installed a co-favorite with Jones. F two and a half rounds, Walter was in the thick of fight, with a fine chance to go to the' front, but he faltered and fin- ished with 303, sixteen strokes be- hind King Bobby. Sir Eric Pedley of California and Winston Guest of New York come from widely separated schools of polo, yet they appear to have clinched positions on the United States “Big Four” by similar meth- ods. Each has crashed through or- thodox standards and, perhaps, some prejudice against them. Guest became an internationalist in 1927, assigned to no less a job than the replacement of the great Devereux Milburn at back. * Yet is was only through the sheer force of his riding and hitting that he was named for the international team that swamped England. There were many misgivings. Again, this year, Guest's status appeared doubt- ful. His handicap was cut from 9 fo'8. This may have spurred him on, for he has rapidly battled his way into the select circle again. It is odd that both Pedley and Guest are the sons of English fath- ers. Pedley’s father was a crack all-around athlete in England, star- Ting at rugby, tennis and cricket as well as polo. Eric was himself an all around star at Stanford Uni- versity, a good boxer, golfer, swim- mer and tennis player. Guest's father, the Hon. Frederick E. Guest, for years has been a pow- er in the Hurlingham Club, gov- erning factor in British polo. His mother was an American and Win- ston learned his polo in this coun- try.

The 32nd producing well out of 32 tests came in recently. The [1and negro welterweight king, alnew well in this relatively new field was estimated unofficially as Thompson saved his crown by the|good for 8,000 barrels a day, but technicality of forcing Corbett no\ come in a pound and a half over- weight. Less than five months before, al-| s0 in a San Francisco ring, Cor-| bett won a ten round decision over | | ! Jackie PFields, then ruler of the 147-| pound division. It, too, was an over- | weight match. | The Fresno southpaw's record is one of the remarkable of the box-| ball writers in their aml:!tala:mte;;]mg game. He started at the age of | taipment featured a skit a {17 years and in 103 bouts, scored: expense of Gabby Street, new man- 3 ynoepouts. Since 1925 he lost ager of the St. Louis Cardinals. The burden of ghostly aside prompted by Street’s many prede- cessors, went thus: “In May, Gabby you won’t be there,” with variations for June, July and August. It is August now, Gabby is still there, the Cards have given a good account of themselves and Street has signed a contract for 1931. Walter Johnson's old battery-mate is the first Céardinal pilot to be re-engaged in some time. He can have the last laugh on the joke- sters now and be proud of it. o NOTICE Having decided to become a re- cuisitor, I hereby give notice that oun and after September 1st, no labor or merchandise charges of any description will be honored pnless covered by a requisition if ordered for my account by others than Mrs. Femmer or myself.

He never has been knocked out and has been on the floor but once, in 1928 when Jack Thompson drop- ped him momentarily. He knocked out Eddie Roberts after the latter had dumped the then welterweight champion, Joe Dundee, for the full count. Corbett’s efforts at title matches have been one futile chase after another. After his last victory over Jackie Thompson, his handlers put- up $60,000 as a guarantee to the negro if he .would defend his title. Ray Alvis, manager of Thomp- son, told the would-be promofer that he was not interested, inas- much as he felt Corbett would win and that the title was worth more money than offered.
