It has been many a long year since the professional ranks have been dominated by &ny single golfer as it s today dominated by Gene Saragen. Not gince the days when Willie Smith unquestionably was the leading golfer of the nited States. Young Gene, not satisfled with annexing the national open title, went out and erthrew Emmett French to win the ofessional Golfers' Association title. And then a few weeks later, in a spe- clal home and home match, he took on Walter Hagen, the British open champion. and defeated him on the | last leg of a 72-hole match, played at the Westchester-Biltmore club, com- ng with a rush after having been two down at the end of the thirty- sixth hole. Nineteen Jon Wwo years ¢ d, now d. 1 twenty-two has been a Sarazen yvear in all truth, with the young Italian-American golfer winning three titles, having cap- tured the southern open, the na- tional open and P.

He will find tougher sledding In the British event than he did in the, American titular chase.

U says that come to pass, but the chances are that activities connected with the drive for a new athletic stadium may delay the project fgr perhaps a year. There has been some correspond- ence between the Gophers and the University of Wisconsin rowing au- thorities, and it is quite possible that Wisconsin might turn over a spare shell or two to Minnesota. The Badg- ers naturally are anxious to see their sister university on the water be- cause it will mean a great impulse in the direction of western rowing. | Institutions at Vancouver and Winn! peg also are interested in the row movement at Minneapolis When the writer was in Minnesota he found a pronounced student senti- ment in fayor of the sport, and cer- tainly there is every natural facility for rowing. The university is situ- ated on the Mississippi river. From St. Paul to the entrance to Minne haha Falls Park there is a straight stretch of river, broad and placid, only & slight current, that runs for more than two miles. The river is hounded on both sides by high biuffs, along the tops of which run the finest sort of roads. Opportunities for observing regattas are thus unexcelled. Intercollegiate rowing as a middle- western sport, as a major sport, is certain to come in good time, Not a few of the big ten universities have coufses for rowing at their doors. and the chances are that the sport would have been established before this had it not been for the experse. Largely speaking, it is & non-pro- ductive sport, but since most of the Dbig western colleges are now bufld- Ang foot ball stadiums. thereby open- ing the way for vastly increased ath- letic receipts, the problem of financ- ing aquaties would appear to be sim- pléer of solution than it hgs ever been in the west. 3 ‘Whikt premises to be the strongest Colgate eleven since the days .of West, Glllo and company, apparently in 1933 will run a bit shy of food worthy of her powder. : - Princeton has not renewed her 1921 and 1922 engagements with the Ma- roon and now the Navy has declified to meet Dick Harlow's men upon a date which already had been con- firmed.

In the meantime the attitude of the Navy in refusing to become involved in @ misunderstanding is commenda- e. As a rule college athletic authori- ties manage to conduct the delicate task of schedule making without hitch or error. Which is well, since S0 many .elements aside from the mere agreement to play foot ball are involved. It is hardly creditable that Colgate made a definite engagement { with Lehigh and then threw it over when an_opportunity came to hook up with the Navy. If so. it was ut- terly an uncharacteristic act. The chances are, however, that the whole situation| arose out of a misunder- | standing. i Agreement of Primceton and the Navy to play their 1923 foot ball in the new Baltimore stadium indicates that this amphitheater is destined to r!ay a . significant part in intercol- egiate sport from now on.
