PUTTING EXPECTED TO OVERCOME AMATEUR On Form Bobby Should Be Victor and May Outshine Walter in Play to Greens, Where Latter Is Ex- pected to Prove Superior. BY RAY McCARTHY. D T. AUGUSTINE, February 27.—Bobby Jones, the world's greatest amateur golfer, should beat Walter Hagén, the world's leading pro- fessional, when the famous pair meet in 72 holes of match play tomorrow at Sarasota and on March-6 at St. Petersburg. Nevertheless, the writer has the feeling that “the Hagel” will break through and win in some manner or other, as he usually does. On form Jones should be the victor, but advance form does not always count. Jones is likely to be straighter from the tee than Hagen and to outplay the professional up to the greens. In putting there is little to choose, althofigh in this respect Hagen has a slight edge. Form in golf, however, does not always count and Hagen is a golfer of rare temperament who is unusually #00od in man-to-man combat on the #olf links. In fact in this matter of disposition Sir Walter has a slight advantage also. Bobby, though, has developed a wonderful attitude toward golf In recent years—a sort of devil-may-carc spirit which, if "he can maintain it 11 this kind of match, will stand him i1 good stead. Hagen Ts Primed, There are three reasons which leac the writer to feel that Hagen m come through in this match. Fo one, he is playing very fine golf a the present time. Hagen usually plays his best game during the firs six months of the year, after he ha enjoyed a long rest in the Fal months. Through the Summer in thc past five or six years he has not don 0 well, although he has been vic torlous in the profesional champion ship the past two years when this Lournument has been held in Septem er. Nevertheless it is true that Hager shines when he is keen for the game And at present he is right mentally On the other hand, Bobby seems not 50 keen. He has been active tit business and the Winter is not his season. He would be better mentally for this kind of match in the Summer months. Secondly, Hagen is masterful in his play around the greens. In chipping and putting and in mashie-niblick play Walter has no superlors. Jones is remarkably adept around the greens. In fact, with the possible exception of Hagen he is the greatest of them all in this respect. But Bobby is not so likely to hole those marathon putts as often as his professional opponent. 1f Hagen ever strikes that mood he will be practically invincible, Pro Has the Edge. Thirdly, there is the professional side to be considered. Everybody who has followed sports of any kind over a period of years knows that the star professional or the average pro fs Superior to the star amateur. It is the professional's business to be good. The amateur has not the time nor the inclination to take sports as serlously, or rather to make a busi. ness of it. On the other hand, if Hagen is not putting, the match is apt to develop into a rout for Jones, who can be depended on always to play steadily and consistently. Bobby will make a contest of it in any event, you can wager on that. What is more, the affair should be very colorful, very interesting and productive of some great golf, for Jones and Hagen not only are the two greatest golfers in this or any other country, but they are also the most colorful in the game. Virginia Van Wie is the most prom- ising girl golter this country has pro- duced since Glenna Collett became famous. Miss Van Wie's performance in the Florida women’s championship @t Palm Beach prompts the writer to make this unqualified statement. Miss Van Wie made a score of 78 to lead a rong fleld in the qualifying round. That score is within one stroke of the course record for the Palm Beach Country Club now held by Glenna Collett. However, it was not Miss Van Wie's score that was so impressive. Rather it was her golf style and manner, as well as her demeanor on the links. This youngster from Chicago has just turned 17. And it is in no wise a re- flection on Glenna Collett’s game to that at 17 Miss Van Wie is quite impressive as Glenna was at the me age. Miss Collett herself is ite enthused about the game of the young Chicagoan. Has Physique For Game. Miss Van Wie has the physique for golf. She has broad shoulders and a fine pair of hands, and is stockily bullt. Then she has a fine golfing swing, very compact and powerful. She will drive up with any of the best of the woman players and her iron play 1s magnificent. Above'all she has an ‘ideal temperament for the game. Miss Van Wie is of the so-called plod- ding, stolld type. She takes things very calmly and seems never to be perturbed. The Chicago girl first participated in tournament play just one year ago and in the South Atlantic champlon. ship at Ormond Beach she went to the final round, where she was beaten in a close struggle by the hard-hitting Dorothy Klotz. Miss Van Wie competed in the wom. en’s national championship for the first time at St. Louis last Fall and made an excellent showing. She quall- fled with a good score and did well in match play. Miss Van Wie is planning a strenu- ous campalgn of tournament golf this Winter to prepare for the Summer sea- son. She will play in the South At lantic championship at Ormond next week, and in the Florida East Coast shamplonship at St. Augustine the fol. lowing week. Miss Van Wie will have competition of a national character. Besides Glenna Collett, Mrs. Dorothy Campbell ~ Hurd, Helen Payson, ¥rances Hadfleld, Bernice Wall, Doro- they Klotz, Mrs. H. D. Steret{, Mrs. Alex Smith and other stars will be in the lists. TRAUTMAN WILL HANDLE OPEN GOLF TOURNAMENT T the Assoclated Press. S _COLUMBUS, Ohio, February 27.— Gieorge M. Trautman, assistant ath. latic director at Ohio State University, has been named manager of the na- tional open golf tournament to be Dield here July 8, 9 and 10 next on the links of the Scioto Country Club. Trautman's appointment was an- nounced by D. Neil Postlewaite, presi- dent of the club. Handling big athletic events is an! old story with Trautman. He organ- yon aud for three years has man: te Ohio relays, one of the big track mests of the country. Last year he arranged all the de- tails for the Western Conference track championships here.

McCLELLAN BY CARL L. SCHRADER, Supervisor of Physical Bducation in Magsa- i chusetts. F course, every boy wants to O be an athlete. 1 wouldn't think much of a boy who didn’t. What 'makes a boy an ath- lete? To break a record? No! To be captain of the team? No! To have one’s name or picture in the paper? No! How does one become an athlete? By watching and cheer- ing others? No! By knowing all the world records and the batting | averages and names of famous ath- letes? No! Take my word for it, my lad, all | worthwhile achievements mean plug- | ging. To be an athlete you must first be willing to live right. You must take care of the machine you want to operate. It needs the best of fuel; all its parts must be kept clean; it needs long hours of rest and well di- rected exercise. As A runner you will need more than legs—you need a good chcst and back and arms. As a shot putter you need more than a beefy body—you need speed and agility. As a foot ball or other team player, you need more than mere weight and technique —you need brains which cause you to think fast, accurately and clean. All this means work, but work that really is fun If by living right and thinking right and plugging away you find yourself gradually improv- ing in_speed, accuracy, skill and strength, no mattar in whaj sport, you are an athlete. Be sure you prac. tice some sport that you can play after school days and college days are over, so that when you are no longer a student, you may still be an athlete. If you can win distinction, fine! So much more to the good, but if you can't you are nevertheless an athlete. It is the fact that you play hard that counts for more than that you play best. “It isn’t the fact that iyml're licked that counts, it it ‘How did you fight, and why 5 it's pretty hard to stir up a crowd sometimes-—even enough to play a game of basket ball. But it's always easy 1o get one fellow to compete with you. And it takes only two boys for a boxing match or a wrestling match—or for a tug of war. You probably picture a tug of war being a contest between about 20 men’ to a side. Well, so it is. But— here is one for two: Contestants, with rope not more than 10 feet long, face each other, with good grip on rope in botlr hands. At a signal turn about, rope over right shoulders ,and start to pull, After you've pulled a couple of matches with the rope over the right shoulders shift it over the left shoul- ders. This is a great sport and great exercise, Elsewhere on this page will be found an application for membvership.

Campbell won out in three games over Walsh and Poehler by 5 maples, and in the singles Glenn Wolsten- holme defeated Pochler by 11 pins, 614 to 603. The center of interest was around the team match and it proved disap- pointing to the local enthusiadts, as the Boston bowlers captured the en- tire set of five games. The total pins were: Boston, 2,811; Washington 2,728. McPhilomy had the best set for the locals, 566, and Howard Camp bell, who replaced Al Works in the fourth and fifth stanzas, copped the high game, 143.

The visitors were hopelessly out- classed in the night game, Maury breaking through for score after score, while the Central scorers were un’ able to penetrate the local's five-man defense. They repeatedly resorted to long ots, but few found the mark. Williams, the lanky forward of Maury, was the outstanding star.

There wil lis Next Month. NNAPOLIS, February 27.—Naval Academy athletic teams will take part in an unusual number of important and significant contests during March and the early part of April, the majority of them Il also be a full schedule of contests of less importance, but of considerable interest. Among the dual matches, the swimming meet with Yale at New Haven on March 20 is attracting the eral affairs, nothing can approach the most interest, while of the big gen- finals of the Intercollegiate Boxing Association, to which the Naval Academy will be host bn March 26-27. Other events of more than average interest are: March 6—Gymnastics, Univer- sity of Chicago, at Chicago; boxing, Yale; swimming, Princeton, an wrestling, Pennsylvania State, all at_Annapolis. March 20—Semi-finals of Inter- collegiate Fencing Assoclation (saber and epee), at Annapoiis. March 27—Finals of Intercolle- giate Swimming Association, at New York. April 1 and 2—Finals of Intercol- legiate Fencing Association, at New York. Apil 2 and 3—National Col- nuning - chamopinships, legiate sw at Annapol Navy Has Fine Swimmers. The al Academy has a wonder ful team of reco.d-breaking swim and so has Yale, so the meeting of thé two teams in the dual match at New Haven and the big general competi- tions are sure to afford great contests. Scrutiny of the performances of the two teams during the season up to this point indicate that the’ competi- tion should be very close and that in- tercolleglate records are likely to fall or be reached in nearly every event Never in the history of the sport have two such remarkable teams met. The Navy has an unapproached breast stroke swimmer in Allan, and fale seems to have a better balanced lay team, but there Is little or no vantage in any other event. The meeting of Rule, Navy, and Bronson Yale, both record breakers, in the sprints should be of particular note. The Naval Academy, which has made such a remarkable record in boxing, never having been defeated in a dual match since it entered th sport competitively seven years ago, is particularly anxious to add to it laurels by winning first place in the TIA JUANA RESULTS ids up: 1 mile— 100" (Munden). $8:60. $4.60, Monopoly. 100 (Schaefer) $5.40, second; Kentucky Smiles. 108 *$5.60. third. me, 1:44 Gold Crimp.
