A. for the qualifying arrangements What a foolish attitude. “The world won't come to an end just because I fail to play well enough to get into this champion- ship. My game didn't deserve a place. I wasn't properly prepared | but that was my own fault. | “So many good youngsters are | popping up all over the country now that no one is sure to qualify or get anywhere in the champion- ship itself. We will have a good representation from this secion. | Old Cousin Jesse (Guilford) is playing well enough to win and Fred Wright is always dangerous.

The list of fallen favorites and | champions is mounting so fast that it will take a rapid calculator at the year’s erd to tally the results. Gene Sarazen was toppled off both golfing thrones he occupied in 1932, Ellsworth Vines was dis- | placed by Jack Crowford at Wim- | bledon, and the British took the | Davis Cup away from France. The 1932 major league batting ‘champinns aren’t even in the race | this year, to all intents and pur- poses, while the Yankees seem on | the way out, too.
