THE SUNDAY STAR, W YOUTHS WILL GET CHANCE |GENOAS STILL LEAD IN AMATEUR TITLE EVENT| - K- C. DUCKPIN L0OP Governing Body Faees Task, However, in Widening Scope of Competition and at Same Time Keeping Field Within Reasonable Limit. BY W. R. McCALLUM. C United States. ASTING precedent to the four winds, the United States Golf Asso- ation has inaugurated what promises to.be a merry scramble for the hopeful cempetitors in the amateur golf championship of the Hitherto limited to a fortunate few who got their names on a so-called “eligible list” by virtue of accomplishments in the realm of the mashie and putter, the association has announced it would abolish the ecligible list and thereby leave the field of competition open to de- serving amateurs who it deemed good enough to compete for the cham- pionZhip. Some there are who feel that by abolishing the eligible list, the national governing bod. of the game will add to its troubles in keep- ing down the field of meén anxious to compete in the amateur classic. But the U. S. G. A, has consistently striven to limit the field of entrants and in abolishing the list, directed attention to the circumstance that the list of competitors in the amateur length, unwieldy. championship ‘was by reason of its The entire tendency of the U. S. G. A. is to reduce the field of amateurs who try for the championship. order of things a situation Golf As- roundly Doubtless, the new will further jumble up for which the United States sociation already has been criticized in some quarters, but also the governing association can be trusted to bring order out of chaos within a very short gme. Just how the lst Ot men who are to compete In the next amateur cHam- pionship, to be played at Oakmont, Pittsburgh, late next Summer, will be determined has not been made clear. The United States Golf Association has stood pat on its announcement that the list would be made up. of players who prove themselves to be golfers of high class and possible championship winners. As to the latter, the list of cham- pionship possibilities in this country is a very narrow one, limited to not more than half a dozen men—at the outside. 10. But that there are youngsters coming algng who are po- tential champions is not to be doubt- ed, for right here in Washington there is in the person of Roland R. Mac- Kenzie a youngster whose progress in national golf affairs cannot alto- gether be measured by his present game. He is today a factor in the amateur champlonship by reason of the fact that he carried George von i tuat year's runner-up, to 37 holes, at Merfon last September, and it is|| reasonable to assume that with the development sure to come with furs ther experience he is a potential champton. There are others just like him scat- tered here and there throughout the country ,and in throwing the eligible list open to men who brove them- selves golfers of the first water the United States Golf Association has done a good thing. The only possible drawback would be the chance that the United States Golt Assoclation, lacking sufficient data on possible championship con- tenders, might keep them out of the champlonship while their game was still developing, for there is nothing lke big-time competition to bring out all the golf there is in a young- ster. That the governing body will do that is not probable, for it has ways of learning how good a golfer fs and will doubtless, as it has in the past, give encouragement to the youngsters coming up in the game.

Mac- Kenzie, the District amateur champlon, and Dave Thomson, overcoming a deficit | Ki of three holes to beat them on the last 18 of a 36-hole match. The same pair will oppose the Versa- tile Johnny and his professional part- ner, for Roland MacKenzie is all booked up for the engagement, while Dave Thomson has groomed up his trusty putter, and says he will be In the same putting mood he was in last Fall, when he putted Farrell and Sarazen almost blue in the face. . That match will be the first of the big events about the city, antedating the first amateur event by three weeks, for on April 30 the Indian Spring affair Wiil start, inaugurating the tournament season hereabout. Tomorrow, however, .the men who play their golf at East Potomac Park, will stage a little private feud of their own. Mel Shorey, former pro at the Manor Club, will pair with A, L. Houghton against Ralph Beach, the long driving pro at Burning Tree, and Page Hufty. The two amateurs are the present stars of the public links courses, while the two profes- sionals are among the best of the younger group around the Capital. The match will start at 11 o'clock. Shorey, by the way, has greatly im- proved his game. Last Thursday, playing with Dave Thomson at the | Washington Golf and Country Club, he shot a 74, and a few days previ- ously shot a 70 over the same course. Formation of a. golf league among the luncheon and welfare clubs of the city, among them Kiwanis, Ro- tary, Lion, Cosmopolitan, Newcomers, and others, is being discussed, -and may become a reality this year. Sev- eral of the clubs now hold club days among thelr own members, but so far an interclub league has not been formed. Construction of a new tee for the tenth hole at the Washington Golf and Country Club is being contem- plated by the greens committee of the club. The committee has not been entirely satisfied with the loca- tion of either of the two tees now in use. From the forward tee & vefy long drive will reach the bunker guarding the green, while from the rear tee a very long drive s needed, particularly against a head wind, to carry a hill 180 yards out and allow a clear shot at the green. The new tee, it is held, will solve both diffi- culties and make a-more interesting hole, retaining the architectural features of the layout. Dr. James Ti McClenahan, chair- man of the greens committee of the Virginia club, has been™ taking measurements and surveying prepara- tory to constiuction of = dam in front of the 'short eleventh hole. 1f this project is consummated it will provide the only real water hole around Washington, Yor in front. of the green will stretch a laks of water 30 yards long and 15 yards wide, almeost surrounding the green on three sides. Robert D. Ramsey, a former mem- ber of the club, who had never seen the new course of the Virginia or- ganization, played the course last week and pronounced ‘it a 100 per cent improvement over the old layout. Completely removated and thor- oughly groomed, the Rock .Creek Park public course opened last Fri- day, making available”to- municipal links golfers the same layouts they enjoyed last year, with the added prospect of additional facilities, both at. East Potomac Park and Roek Creek Park. East Potomac Park's new nine holes willgbe opened be: tween the 1Gth and 30th. of May, making 27 holes in all avsflable at the popular lower park} while Sergt. Patrick Joyce,,in charge of Rock Creek Park construction and maln- tenance, promises to have the new nine at=Rock Creek open the latter part of August or the first part of 285 8626 ) September. The clubhouse at Rock Creek is in. charge of Maj. James A. O'Brien, a 1533] retired Army officer, and Danny Hor- gan, assistant at Chevy Chase last year, s the instructor. .

Bucks won a well deserved victor, annexing the- title b a margin of six games, their fighting spirit keeping them in the running even in adverse moments in the season when the breaks seemed to be going against them. Chaslie Holbrogk, captain of thé winning, threatefied until the very last game to dislodge Roy, Whitford, the individual average leader, but his game of 86, following 131 and 119, spofled his chances, Farlee's Dodgers, by .their clean- sweep ‘over the Reds, supplanted the latter in second position, Quinn's 320 set being the best, registered. Roberts' Pirates jumped into a tie for the third honors with the Glants and hte Reds by defeating the former in' two games while the latter were dropping, all three. Whitford's 127 geme featured . the .Giants-Pirates match. . In reviewing, the season's work the det of 496 turned in about mid-season by Hendley stands out as the best bit of rolling, as far as records go, ever accomplished in the league.

Perfection with the swing comes.when the player does everything he should do—automatically. An impossible goal to reach, you might think, yet it is comparatively easy. This is because one thing done correctly often insures a correct method for a long train of details in subsequent order. Ortie very neces- sary accomplishment in the swing that can be made automatic on this basis is the shifting of weight. I have often observed that when I caution the pupil to let his weight slide over to his right leg at the beginning of the back swing he be- comes 80 - involved in that process that he immediately overdoes It, which results in a violent back-and- forth action of the hips that is out of all proportion to the correct action. In Figure 1 we'see a golfer stand- ing at the correct address position at the ball. He 1s at the moment of start{ng his back swing. In figure 2 this ‘player has gone through the first—and by all odds the most im- portant—segment of the back swing, which is the act of moving the club- head straight back from the ball, slowly, ‘and close to the ground a few inches. Figure 3 shows a close- up, as the movie people say, of the action of the clubhead, the hands showing how the clubhead keeps even with the hands In this first movement back from the ball. The golfer who will learn to start his clubhead back in this way need hardly think of the physical act of shifting his welght to his right leg. The very action of taking the club- head straight back a few inches—say, six to eight inches—will cause the the unwelcome distinction of not only losing" to the papermakers, but also dropping three by forfeit to Mount Pleasants. Curb Cafe, with a st of 1,676, the best of the week, got away with the odd game from Meyer Dayis, Joe Toomey, Reds Morgan and Frank Miller, with sets of 363, 365 and 342, respectively, being best for the league leaders, while Happy Burtner was high for Meyer Davis with a 342 set. Regulars were stingy with Y® M. C. A., not allowing the latter a single game. Danny Reiff turned in a set of 359, including & 142 game, the best individual effort of the week. Although forced to use a dummy score, Cor- nell's Lunch managed to tale a game from King Pins, Louls Weideman and Roscoe Reichard contributing good sets of 355 and 343 for the southeast lunchroom team. i Joe Toomey of Curb Cafe has been smashing the pins for better than'a 127 average for the last four sets, weight automatically to slide over onto the right leg. Try this way of starting the clubhead back and see 1f it doesn’t work outas I say. Re- member that the shoylders do not drop downward as the club goes back, neither do they turn away from the ball. = After you have acquired the little knack of starting the back swing this way all the rest of it will soon become'automatic and easy and the balls will begin going straight and far for you.

He is a halfback. his totals being 372, 380, 346 and 369. A continuation of-the pace he has been setting should be sufMcient to warn the leading men in individual ayerage that this speed-ball merchant supplant them for the premier honors. - Any bowler capable of top- pling 58 pins with six successive balls 1s @ competitor to be reckoned with, and the voloanic Joe hung up that un. usual record only twe-years ago. He made strikes in the elghth, ninth and tenth boxes of a game that decided the league pennant winner. The first of his extra two balls in the tenth box was a strike, the second counted elght pins, while the first ball of the new game was also a strike. Irving Billheimer of Stanford Paper Company has been a strong factor in the recent victorles regis- tered by his team. . For a man bowl- ing in No. 3 position on a team, he is perhaps the most dangerous per- former of any occupying a Similar ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLE - L AST week this column stated that a party of anglers fishing above the Aquedluct Bridge had seen a number of herring breaking water. Will Reynolds, well known angler and boatman, has a different story to tell, however. He said that so far he has seen no herring in| the river and doubts if any are up this far as yet. He said he had received word that no herring are in the river as far as 40 or 50 miles below the city. Of course, it is possible that a-few may have reached this vicinity last week and have gotten past the watchful eye of this waterfront man, but one thing is certain, the herring have not started their annual Spring run. The condition of the waters of the Potomac, about which this column ‘was optimistic last Sunday, has taken a turn for the worse, and yesterday was reported to be muddy. This con- dition starged Thursday night, and Friday morning the water was badly discolored, with the prospects that it will take three’ or four days for it to clear. However, as there are no fish- except catfish and carp to be caught at the present time this con- dition makes little difference to the majority of angler; Next Thursday the Potomac Anglers’ Chapter of Izaac Walton League of America will ‘give its exhibition - of moton pietures on fish and fishing, in the auditorium of the Interior De- partment, Eighteenth and F streets northwest. ,All are cordially -invited to attend this instructive illustrated lecture, for that is just.what it will be. Mr. Leech of the Bureau of Fish Culture will explain the pictures as they are shown. Tickets may be obtained from members of the league or from any -of the local sporting goodg stores. While admission is by card only, the tickets are free. It is hoped that a majority of local anglers will take advantage of this oppor- tunity to learn more about the deni- zZens of the deep which they will be eager to catch a little later on dur- ing the fishing season. Swepson Karle, State conservation commissioner of Maryland, 15 to be congratulated for his. stand. in the matter of anglers arrested in his State for violation of the fish laws and allowed to go free when.taken before a magistrate on the ground that they had caught no fish. He d clared: 3 B “We, have laws that prevent men from carrying shotguns and. follow- ing bird dogs in certain areas-dur- ing sed ~ season, regardless of whether they have shot any birds. I see no difference in the application of the law to the trout fishermen.” Earle has declared that in ‘the fu- ture such cases woulé be taken be- fore anotfer magistrate. action of Earle's shows that Maryland picked the right man for conse: tion commissioner. He is untiring’ in his efforts,, 18 fearless and hits straight at the mark when he is con- vinced that a thing is right. The many anglers of Washington who fish in Maryland waters are following his movements with much interest, par- Uoularly in the upper river sections, where the small-mouth bass makes 1ts home. LR, Nature was more or less'extrava- gant in_bestowing upon m»qygfi so many excellent fishing places. ‘Within radius of approximately 50 miles of” this city no.less than 22 places below the city where fresh- water fishing can be had, and about the same number of places where the salt-water angler can spend his week ends. Above the city the angler can Lunt .the holes In the.Potomac-for the small-mouth-bass as far up as Harpers Ferry, and - then up -the Shenandoah River, as it winds its way *through the.

Following closely on the “heeis” of the perch and herring come the striped bass, or rockfish’ This last run occurs about the first of'Jvne, or, as the old fisherman says, when the locust trees are in bloom the rock- fish will be found in’the Potomac around Washington.

The live-bait - angler has to employ ' en- tirely different methods in landing his fish. Should he hit the same as when using artificial bait he wiil lose his fish. The strike and sebsequent run when using live balt is the result of the bass taking your bait in his'mad rush. The second run isa short sertes of dashes, and the third run takes place after tie bass has turned the bait, head first, and Is the time to hit.; The chances are that he will break water in an- effort to the bait, and the lucky angler is the one who has no slack in his line, be- cause *if you have, the odds are greatly in favor of the fish regat; ing his freedom. 2 THe twe bisck basses are some- times_confounded, but they have con- trasting marks of distinction. They can be classified by the number of rows of ‘sciles on the olteek, the large mouth possessing 10 and the small mouth 17 rows. The mouth of the former extends back of the eyes, and that of the small mouth s even with the front of the eyes. . i/ Wi SCHAEFER AND HOPPE|STAR TO BE ACCOMPANIED TO DISPLAY WIZARDY ‘BY_TRIO OF GIRL FRIENDS Two of the ayeatest billlardists in the world, Jake Schaefer and Willle Hoppe, will play a serles of four games at the Grand Central, com- mencing tomorrow afternoon. Three hundred points will be play- ed each afternoon and night at the 18.2 balkline game and’at the ocon- ocluston of each match Schaefer and Hoppe will give exhibition of fancy shots. After more than 30 years In bil- Hards, and still he is a few years on the sunny side of 40, Willie Hoppe's one ambition is to regain the world 18.2 balkline title. He is at present the champion at 14.1, 14.2 and 18.1 and held the 18.2 honors for sixteen years. Hoppe has lost the title twice and on both occasions his conqueror was Jake Schaefer, son of the famous wizard. His recent defeat by Sohaefer prob- ably may be attributed to his match at_three cushions, when he defeated Cannefax for that title In Chicago, as it is almost impossible to regain the soft nursing strokes peeded in balk- line after a slap-bang expeHence with the round-the-table game. But there is no question as to Schaefer’s brilllancy in ¢&he recent tournament. Jake ocertainly played unbeatable billiards. When one glances at Schaefer’s wonderfol games and record-breaking grand average of 67, it clearly demonstrates that he simply outplayed Hoppe. « In the tournament Sohaefer scored 400 points in one inning, a two-inning victory featured by an unfinished run of 283, and when he defeated Hoppe his triumph was marked by an un- finished run of 296. Hoppe remarked after his defeat that he hoped the next time they met Jake's game wouM be sémewhat poorer and his own Improved. In working Sohaefer and Hoppe together the management has shown great enterprise, as heretofore it has generally been the custom to give the topliners a Jesser star with whom to play exhibition games. Seats at the Grand Central will be arranged In tler form, so that the exhibitions can be seen without trouble. Matches start at 3 o'clock in the afternoon and 8 o'clock at night.

Miss Collett is playing the finest golf she ever has exhibited. Only the other day, in an exhibition match at Ormond, she was out-driving Joe Kirkwood, noted Australian trick shot artist. Incidentally. Glenna met John D. Rockefeller just before the start of the match.
