Jones Still Worthy Golf Champion : Compston in Links Exhibition Here Today BOBBY’S AMATEUR STATUS NEVER SERIOUSLY DOUBTED Recent Alleged “Rebuke” by Officials of Govern- ing Bod of Game for Extensive Play With Pros Declared a “Tempest in a Teapot.” BY W.

The amateur champion, even though he has played a good deal from the game, still is held in highest ssociation and its officers individually for his sportsmanship and his firm refusal to entertain the many tempting offers that hav The affair teapot,” according to Bobby's close Atlanta.

Five weeks ago several of the U 8. G. A. officials met at luncheon and discussed Jones among other in- dividuals, in addition to other im- por 1t matters. The consensus of opinion at the luncheoh was that the @hampion was playing a bit too much golf with professionals, even though he had done nothing, o far as was known, to injure his amateur stand ing. A letter was written to Bob, and the champion, considerably wor- ried, took it to his father and to Keeler for advice as to how to reply While his answer has not been made public, Jones did not take the posi- tion that “he would do as he pleased, the U. S. G. A,, to the contrary but did tell the governing body that he believed play with golf stars of the first magnitude would help him. Out of this interchange of letters was magnified the story that Jones was “in wrong” with the U. 8. G A, and hints were broadcast that the amateur champion might find himself in difficulties that would en- danger his amateur standing. The entire incident was amicable and now is closed. Jones will go abroad on May 5 as a member of the Amer- fcan Walker cup team without the slightest disagreement with the pow- ers that be in golf By way of explanation, it should be mentioned that Robert Tyre Jones, Jr., leans backward in his ef- Yort to erase any taint of profes- sionalism_that may attend his golf playing. If he so wished, the youth- ful Mr. Jones could be a man of in- dependent means today, for he has had countless offers to capitalize his skill. Some of them involved his amateur standing, while others were glossed over with a_ veneer of re- spectability that might have gotten by. Naturally those that would have him become an out-and-out profes- sional carried the largest money copsideration Has Spurned Big Offers. Jones had consistently turned down all such offers, not even consid- ering for a moment one involving some $40,000—quite a neat plece of change for a youngster. Several others ran into sums as high as $25,000, while some inviting the champion to write stories for news- papers or magazines carried various tempting sums. Bob Jones stands out today with a very limi ber of amateur top-notchers as one of those who has not permitted him- Self to be led into the path of semi- professionalism. He always has been most rigid in his definition of what constitutes trespassing on a some- what flexible amateur code. And he is today the outstanding example of an amateur golfer who makes every possible effort, although in business, to disassoclate a great golf game from, the many induce- ments to profit. that accrue to its POsSSessor. ’As in the case of every star amateur player, it is very difficult to draw a line of demarcation as to exactly where the fact that Bob Jones is a great golfer enters into his ability to Sell real estate. Other first rank ama- teurs who are not exceptional sales- men get along fairly well in other lines of business, and if a prospect buys a piece of real estate from Jones because of his fondness for the cham pion and not because of the land he has to sell, the dividing line of ama- teurism would be extremely hard to locate. Has Worried Over Game. To return to the mechanical game of the world’s outstanding player, it is true that Jones has been having some trouble with his game this year. His long iron shots have been hook- fog far too much and Jones has been worried. He has even gone so far as to weigh some of his irons, hoping that a heavier head will counteract the tendency to hook. And he has been taking instruction for several weeks from James M. Donaldson, the former Chicago and Fenimore pro, who now is in Florida. Jones is not off his game badly. But the hook at the end of a long fron may mean a difference of two or three strokes on a course where the greens are closely trapped, for & hooked ball runs where a ball played the other way will stop. Bob did fairly well in the regent champion- ship at Pasadena, finishing second tc Hagen over the latter's own course. But Jones performed poorly in the 72-hole match against Hagen. Ob- ervers in the South who saw bath of the 36-hole contests -sald Hagen was simply unbeatable, and that no man could have stood up against the Irand of golf Hagen shot in the match. Yet to those who read only the tele- zraph stories a Jones defeat by 8 and 7 must have implied some de- cided inferiority on the part of the amateur titleholder. Champ Has Not Slipped. The Hagan licking over the 72-hole route camy by the same margin that Sweetser difeated Jones in the cham- pionship of 1922 at Brookline—a de- feat many admirers of the Atlanta lad call his worst defeat. It will be recalled that Jones was 6 down at the end of the first nine holes of the Sweetser match and shot a 34 on the last nine, picking up but one hole and that when Sweetser took three putts on the 17th green. Jones has not slipped. Nor is he in bad with the United States Golf Association.

ARMY MEDICS TAKE FINAL SOCCER GAME The Army Medical Center soccer team closed its season yesterday by handing a 4-to-1 trimming to the Fort Myer eleven, runner-up in the recent ‘Washington League series. The game was played at Fort Myer. Playing against the wind, the Medi- cal Center forwards kept up an al- most continuous pressure during the first half and scored their first goal after 17 minutes of play. De Mott of Fort Myer equalized the count almost immediately, but the ultimate winners came back with two more goals before the period ended. Fort Myer assumed the offensive in the second half, but could not break through the visitors’ defense to any advantage.

Armour Assumes Duties at Congressional. A golf, and John Farrell, one of Florida's perennial champions and a leader in the New York section, will play an exhibition match today over the course of the Washington Golf and Country Club, Compston will pair with Dave Thomson, professional at the Wash- tington club, against Farrell and Roland R. MacKenzie, the Middle At lantic champion and a member of the Walker Cup team. The morning round will start at 10 o’clock, with the afternoon engagement scheduled to start at 2. All golfers are invited to witness the exhibition without charge A luncheon will be served at the clubhouse at the noon interval. Compston and Farrell played round the course yesterday with M. R West, club champion, and Dr. W. C. Barr, chairman of the house committee Although neither man holed out all putts, their scores would have beer down in the low 70's. Compston poled several particularly long tee shots, his shot on the long fourth hole leaving him little more than a pitch to the green. With the wind behind him the tall Englishman | hit a ball into the trap guarding the seventeenth green, a distance of about 300 yards. His tee shot at the first | hole nearly reached the green, 305 | yards from the tee. RCHIE COMPSTON, acknowledged leader of British professional bers of golf clubs do mnot see muck of the labor involved.

The change is only one of many that are being undertaken Washington to 7§ pare the cotirse Midd lantic championship to be held at tha club the last week y. Tom Armour, the new Congressional Country Club professional, came to town yesterday and took up his duties immediately. Armour will be at the exhibition match at the Washington Golt and Country Club today, accom panied by another of the famous pro fessionals, who have been Wintering in the South—Leo Diegel. Diegel Compston, Farrell and Armour ar- rived in Washington yesterday morn ing from Pinehurst, where they ali played in the North and South open championship, won by Bob Cruick shank. Roland R.

Dr. McClena- han has ordered several thousand pa- per tees, which will be furnished free to the members of the club with in- structions that they leave them where | 100§ they hit after the bill is struck and ¥ « forego the use of sand for teeing the 3 ball. Employes on the course will be bt instructed to pick up the tees, but members will be urged not to attempt to find_them. Dr. McClenahan believes this will not only save time in playing the course, but also will save money, which would otherwise be spent on sand to fill tee boxes. He has figured out how much sand costs per season and how much paper tees cost and finds a balance favoring the use of the paper tees. A complete schedule of events for the 1926 season has been drawn up by the golf committee of the Town and Country Club, which is headed by Nathan B. Frank. The first event is the invitation Spring tourney of the club, to be held April 28, 29, 30 and May 1. One-day events will be held May 9 and 23, with prizes to the win- ner in two classes. A one-day handicap ag: with an entrance fee of $1 for ti benefit of the greens section of ihe United States Golf Association, will be held May 30. One-day events also will be held June 6 and 13. One of the big events of the Town and Country Club season will be held in June, the annual tri-city tourna- ment being scheduled for June 19 and 20. Teams from Richmond and Nor- folk will be met. Team members will be picked on the showing made up to June 15. A flag day tourney will be held July 4 for the Marc Goldheimer cup. The rest of the schedule follows: July 14 and 13—Women’s tournes.
