President Harding’s friendly quali- ties and personal nature were never better shown than on the golf links. Ho appeared to go out of his way to speak to a man with whom he d only slight acquaintance, and Ithough it was customary to permit the presidential four-ball match to hrough any other matches on » links, President Harding always made jt a point to never go through unless the match in front had slowed He always thanked the players match went through. Probably no man ever had more zolf clubs given to hiny than Presi- dent Harding, vet through all the vears since 1921 he kept and played With & putter given to him by Chick ans of Chicago—an aluminum cen- ter shaft affair with which he putted excellently. President Harding was the first | President of the United States to play in a golf tournament while in office. Heg honored the then newly or- ganized Washington Newspaper Golf Club in 1921 with his entry in its first tournament in that year. If memory serves correctly, President Harding on that occasion had two putts on the last green of the Wash- inglon Golf and Country Club to win the Cook trophy—the chief prige.’ Human frailty conquered, and to the clicking of & motion picture camera the President took four putts and failed to win. Nevertheless he won a prize and presented the prizes to the other winners. In only one of the events held by the club gince that time has the President falled to compete, and that was on account of the illness af Mrs. Harding. Golfing World Mourns.

Although the rains have made the crab grass worse than ever, they also have succeeded in heing along the finer grasses, and, all in all, the golf courses have been materially benefited by the rain. Incidentally the way crab grass grows is vividly illustrated by the grass which was cut at the White House a few weeks ago to permit transfer of the heating plant across Executive avenue to the State, Wi and Navy bullding. Crab g shoots eighteen inches gr two long have grown over the edges of the excavation, crowding out the other grasses. Albert R. MaeKensie, the middle Atlantic champion, his son Roland, M. B. Stevinson, C. J. Dunphy and Guy M. Standifer will’ within a few days send their entries to the United States Golf Association for the ama- teur championship to be held at the Flossmoor Country Club near Chica- go. the week of Beptember 10.

Famous the world over for his long-distance driving. * k¥ % One of the most frequent causes of slicing is the loose wrist, which allows the club head to fall behind the hands on the downward swing —that is, the hands are traveling faster than the clup head. Another common cause of slicing is just the opposite—the club head arrives at the ball too early. This second fault is caused by standing too much on the right foot which unbalances the weight and causes the body to turn too much with the swing. £0cpyright 1933 dssoclate Balacadl successtuily | Ameriean | ent leadership of Washington among lantic Golf Association.

BY SAMUEL HARDY. NGLIGHMEN have been playing in American tennis championship and sometimes winning them—at irregular intervals ever since the inauguration of the Davis cup contest in 1900.

Now, for the first time, a team of English women has been sent by the British Tennis Association to compete against a selected team of American women at Forest Hills August 10-11, Later ! these same British players will play in Can The visitors come at the invitation of our American association, which plans to send an American team to England next year for a return match, at about the time of the Olymplc games, in which we expect to enter a team of men and a team of women as well. Originally it was hoped by the United States Lawn Tennis Associ tion that a woman's Davis cup con- test could be formed, patterned after that now held annually for men The plan fell through, chiefly because | the Baitlsh association refused to enter a team. The coming matches, therefore, will serve as a substitute for the former idea, and will be the nearest approach to a woman's Davis cup challenge round. It is a pity, however, that a French team, includ- ing Mile. Lenglen, could not also par- ticipate. The Invading team consists of four English women, two of whom, Miss McKune and Mrs. Beamish, have in- ternational reputations as tennis players of the first quality. Of the other two plavers, Mrs. Covell {s very well known throughout England, where, as Miss Howkins, she has won any ' tournaments, and this year ned special prominence by defeat- Mallory. Mrs. Clayton also has been very successful in tburnament play this season, Miss McKane British “Ace.” Miss McKane now is recognized as the successor of Mrs. Lambert Cham- bers, who retired from singles com- petition two vears ago on the advice of her physiclan.
