The tale is liked with Jones' vic- tory over Roger Wethered in the final for the 1930 British amateur championship. “On the first tee of that match .« Jones overheard a remark that no one had ever played historic St. without taking at least; > related Ouimet. “To the background, you' must realize that this old course has several tough holes and all the rest par fours, many of them very stiff. “Well, 1 didn't give another thought to the remark myself. Jones continued to play brilliantly. ., His card showed nothing but threes and fours until he came to the tough 17th hole, the famous road hole. “There, his second shot, a spoon, started perfectly for the pin, but developed a slight tail and hopped into a bunker. Bobby flicked out an almost perfect shot. It hit the top of the sloping green, stopped mo- mentarily and then rolled slowly toward the cup. I thought for a #moment it was going in, but it stopped two feet away. “Wethered was dead for his four, but Bobby then hit his easy putt somewhat carelesly and it failed to drop, forcing him to take a five. He won the 18th to become five up at the halfway mark, then turned and asked me to come up to his| hotel room. “When I got there Bobby locked the door, much to my surprise, and M %inen with some show of temper, bounced four or five balls around the room. Somewhat alarmed, 1 asked: ‘Bob’ what's the matler? You're five up, in a fine position and playing fine golf. Certainly you | aren’t worrying about the match, are you?' “Ignoring that, he said: ‘Why just imagine, there I was with a chance to be the first player to make that course without a single * five on my card, and then I missed that silly putt for a four on the 17th.’ “Here was a man playing for the highest honors and his chief thought most of the way was not concerning his opponent,, but about his, contest with the course. 4 have never seen such supreme con- entration.” women's title- | concentration” of | ¢ERG DAHL m mshh Reyerved Ly Tho Assoclat HUSKIES LEAVE 'FOR SOUTH FOR TROJAN BATTLE D ~ AS8SeTED Golf Receipts Off Revenues for the United States Golf association from its n;\LionJi‘Washington Gridsters Meet tournaments fell off almost 50 per ent 1OHiE ek Southern California The “cut” for the association in; on Sa[urday receipts from open, amateur and | women's championships was ap-| proximately $30,000 for 1931 as|phelan and a squad of 33 men compared with $53,000 for the year comprising before. hopes, departed Wednesday for Los Despite the double play-off, the Angeles where Washington Satur- national open at Toledo grossed day will undertake the Harculean only about $25000, the national task of stopping Howard Jones | amateur at Beverly $22,000 and the and his rampant Trojans of the| national women's at Buffalo $6,000.
