It may be another year or two before the youngsters break through befcre one of them manifests the consistencq to lead the pack, but they are on the way. It was eight years from the time he first appeared in the National amateur before the great Bobby Jones got to the top. It's a tourna- ment of bitter disappointments for the majority, where experience and the “breaks” have a lot to do with the final outsome. “Jimmy" Johnston can testify to that. Sufficiently already has been heard from such young golfers as Maurice J McCarthy, jr., Fay Cole- man, Don Moe, Charley Seaver and now, Jack Westland, to include them in the list of rising sta Moe, due to poor management, rather than poor golf, had the mis- fortune to be shut out of the Na- tional championship tournament with a score much bettey than most of the qualifiers. New Talent. Bucrly nas v,hruax fo—vmrdt To Honor Pesigned to perpetuate the memory of the greatest 4 ‘football coach of all time, this memorial field houss | additional talented young perform- ers for the experts to watch: Billy Howell of Richmond, 19- year-old Virginia champion who gave Ouimet his closest match; Paul Jackson of Kansas City, 2 who met Ouimet in the mird round; Gus Moreland of 20-year-old Texas champion, who was a sensation in the qualifying round and lost his first match against another young man, Frank Connoliy of Detroit, who happened to be quite “hot” at the moment, and Carey Bellew, jr., a good look- ing and game Kansas City boy. To get an idea ot the turn things have takenm in this golfing party. | Ouimet, in his march to the title' defeated four youths making their first appearance in the tournament match play, so far as I can re- call. These were Johnny Shields of | Seattle, Frank Connolly, Paul Jack- ' son and Billy Howell. The veteran's fifth and final opponent, West- land, had qualified only once be- fore in 1926, and gone no further than the first round. It Took Fou:. No greater testimony to the out- standmg skill of Bobby Jones could Dallas, ' have been produced than the bat- tling it required to parcel out the four major championships he held in 1930. It has taken four players in 1931 | to do the work Jones accomplished all by himself. His successors, in addition to Ouimet, are Tommy Ar- mour, British open; John Nelson Smith, British amateur; and Billy Burke, American cpen, who had to go double the usual championship | distance, 144 holes, to win. Until it came down to the last 21, of the big events, Jones was an impartial and not overly enthusi- astic observer. At Toledo he spent most of his time under a tree. But at Beverly, the Georgian was “pull- ing” so hard for Ouimet to come through that he followed the lat- ter’s last two matches from start to finish. Bob was “tickled to death” for a few jremarked: “I'm having a hard enough time trying to think up a good lead for my own story, let along give any interviews.” S IGREEN AVD YELLOW v FOR BRIDAL PARTY WASHINGTON.—A reen em- broidered organdie frock with a green lace straw hat to match was worn by Mrs. Hugh Bierman. matron of honor at the wedding of Miss Miriam Likens.
