SPORTS," McLoughlin, Once Net Star, Now Golfer : Stocking to Pilot Convention Hall R A LISTED INTILE TOURNEY “California Comet” Sure to! Be Watched in Play at Pebble Beach. BY ALAN J. GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. 1 's ago they knew him | Mac,” the “California | et.” Maurice E. McLoughlin was one of the rarc types that flash_brilliantly upon the scene of action, giving every one & thrill while at the top. He was the greatest tennis | player of his day, twice American cham- plon, in 1912-13." He is staging a come- back this September, but 1t will be on the hazardous, wind-swept stretches of Pebble Beach’s golf course, not on the historic turf of Germantown or Forest | Hills, The return of “Red Mac"” to the com- | petitive arena, as an entry for the first | time in the national amateur golf | championship at Del Monte, will be one of the most interesting episodes of the closing outdoor campaign. To gain entry to this blue ribbon affair of the links requires & club handicap of no| more than three strokes. This means | McLoughlin has been shooting consist- ently in the low 70s. No matter how far he goes in the battle of Pebble | Beach, it will be worth while noting| Wwhether “Mac” smacks the golf ball | than par. Pitt Gets a 68 at Hunter a 67 at Indian Spring WO great rounds of golf have been reglstered on local courses during the past two days. Harry G. Pitt of Manor, for- mer holder of the midatlantic title, wasn't satisfied with his record of 71 sct a few days back at his own club, so he proceeded to go out and better that mark by three strokes. Yes, Harry moved over the hard Manor Club course in 68, setting a record that is not likely to be approached by any man — amateur or professional — for many days to come. He was playing in & four-ball match with Charles M. ‘Wright, Harry Welch and William L. F. King. Pitt played the first (and most diffi- cult) nine in 35 strokes, which is one better than par, and, moving over to the easier nine, proceded to negotlate that side in 33 strokes, which is better Along the route he picked up no fewer than 5 birdies, going one over par on the short second and the dog-leg fifth. The other great round was played by J. Monro Hunter, sr., over his home course at Indian Spring. With the prestige of a victory over Horton Smith and Leo Diegel—aided by Glenn Spen- cer of Baltimore — Hunter galloped around in 67, 1 strake above his own record for the layout, and level with the amateur record set in 1927 by Miller B. Stevinson. He was playing with George Diffen- baugh, his professional assistant. Proceeding with plans for its invita- tion tournament, Bannockburn has completed the personnel of the com- with the same confident abandon he did the tennis ball in the days when | his aggressive tactics revolutionized the game. | Several years ago I happened to run| across McLoughlin, sitting_inconspicu- | ously in the marquee at Forest HIlls.| 1 asked him what changes he noted in the game “You always notice the effect of the domirating players more than any- thing else,” he remarked. “Tilden and | Johnston are the big stars now. Both| are cssentially base-liners, and ysu no- | tice the way these youngsters hug the back-line, copying Big Bill and Little Bill. Tilden, however, also has encour- | aged development of the allcourt game. | 1 preferred the more aggressive net game in my days, and s did Dick Williams.” | e | OBBY JONES detects similarity be- tween golf and polo strokes, in! that “to swing easily and freely is the | important end” in each sport. Writing in the magazine Polo, Bobby stresses the advantage of & good start and tells how he does it: “I have hit upon a plan and followed 1t religiously ever since. I start now taking an easy, comfortable stroke at first, increasing the power gradually as I feel I am able. I usually drive at my | 1mit by the time I reach the fifth hole. | In this way I am well warmed up and my swing is working smoothly before I make any attempt to extract extra yardage from it. “Polo, of course, is a game in which | the stroke is made with the right arm. | In golf the main damage a right hand | can do is by throwing the club for- | ward and out from the top of the| swing. This motion causes the player | to cut across the ball, or if the right hand turns over, to hit the ball with the face of the club hooded. The first motion should bring the right elbow | close against the ribs on the right side of the body. The right arm must.be | absolutely straight at impact.” TWO TITLES DECIDED Two_sectional titles were decided yesterday in the municipal playground | et play and one triple tie knotted. | Gilbert Hunt of Garfield and George Wood of Rosedale took their respective sectional honors. Wood, by an 8—8, 6—3 victory over Walter Jackson of | Hoover, clinched the section 1 cham- | plonship of the boys' senior, division, while Hunt came out on top in sec- | tion 4 of the junior tournament. | Neither boy has lost a match. In section 1 of the girls' doubles event three teams are tied for first place—Georgetown, Chevy Chase and Montrose. Betty Brooke and Eleanor Henderson scored over Eleanor Car- Toll and Ruth Johnson of Happy Hol- Jow, 6—2, 6—0, yesterday to bring| their round up even with Chevy Chase | and Georgetown, which two aiready were tied.

ESS SWEETSER'S winning score of 214 for 54 holes in the 1929 Victoty tournament, played over the exacting Sleepy Hollow | course, served notice that he is' back on his famous game and must be championship. Sweetser, only native American to win the British amateur title, a feat he ac- complished in 1926, suffered & physical breakdown after his triumph, and not until last year did he fully recover. The keen edge of his game had become dulled and he could not regain it. He was beaten by George Voigt in the sec- ond round of the 1928 amateur, but Voigt played great golf to stop him. The big Kentuckian, now a resident of New York, won his first important golf title while a student at Yale in 1920, when he captured the intercol- legiate champlonship. He was run- ner-up in 1921, and in 1922 won the amateur championship of the United States. He captured the metropolitan championship the same year, and re- peated in 1925. Jess has played on all five of the Walker Cup team, representing the United States against Great Britain. Few players, amateur or professional, can swap mashie niblick shots with the genial and popular Swectser. CALIFORNIANS RULE IN JUNIOR NET PLAY By the Associated Press. CULVER, Ind., August 17.—The two perennial California rivals for national junior tennis supremacy, Keith Gled- hill of Santa Barbara and Ellsworth Vines of Pasadena, faced each other again today on_ the Culver Academy hard courts for the singles title. Seeded in the championship draw as a No. 1 and No. 32, respectively, Gled- hill and Vines stroked their way into the finals yesterday, the former romping over Junior Boehmer of St. Louis, 6—U, 6—1, while Vines eliminated Robert Bryan of Chattanooga, Tenn, €—1, 10—8. After those battles, they teamed together and won the national junior doubles champlonship by defeating Bryan and Wilmer Hines of Columbia, 8. C., 6—0, 6—3, 6—1. Gledhill, an angular youth, who is| equally brilllant at the net or on the back courts, was a decided favorite over Vines. ‘Tennis critics today praised the two as the most promising doubles combina- tion America has had among juniors in years. The boys’ singles title also was up for decision today, the championship rest- ing between Jay Cohn of Santa Moni Calif.,, and Bernard Friedman of Phil: delphia. Cohn was expected to win handily, but Friedman ranked as a dan- gerous threat because of his upset of the defending champion, Richard He- bard of White Plains, N. Y., in straight sets, 6—0, 8—6, yesterday. A victory for Cohn, however, would give California a grand slam in the week's tournament. With a Californian certain of winning the doubles, that State would have four out of four titles, Cohn and C. R. Hunt of 8an Francisco having won the boys’ doubles champion- ship yesterday by defeating Hebard and Magco Hecht of New York, 6—4, 2—8, 6—3. Cohn reached the final round of the boys’ singles by eliminating Frank Par- ker of Milwaukee, 6—4, 6—4. $10,000 HORSE BURNED.

E ~ ager of Convention Hall, From the obscurity of a floor man's job at the Recreation, in which he spent several years, the former Bismarck of bowling politics has struggled to promi- nence cnce more, On September 1 he will assume di- rectorship over the second largest bowl- ing establishment in the duckpin center of the country. In announcing the appointment, John S. Blick, president of the Convention Hall company, said: “Stocking is another example of the old saying that you can’t keep a good man down. He was forced by circum- stances to accept almost any job open when business reverses put him down several years ago. When he went to the Recreation in a minor position it was believed by everybody that he'd soon pull back to a place worthy of his abilitics.” Learns Game as Business. Stocking had only a superficial knowledge of the game as a businecss then, his connection with it having been as an organization leader. The battlc he fought to keep the Washington City Duckpin Association -intact when powerful influences were at wori to wreck it never will be forgotten by those \130 had a fist in the fight, on either side. As president of the City Assoclation Stocking looked ever into the future and directed unflagging effort toward the game's development. Almost buried there at the Recreation, the iron- hearted war horse of other days un- doubtedly has found much satisfaction in watching the reforms he sought and risen again, and it promises to glow brighter than ever, ARLE D. STOCKING'S star has| Today he was appointed man- | the developments he strove for ma- terialize one by one. We have his word for it that bowling politics will claim him no more, if he can avoid it. Stocking, some time back, decided to make a,go of the business end of bowling and felt that he -was serving a sort of paprenticeship as an iad to his noble Roman pal, Harry B.

He 'left ‘Washington flat the day before yester- day and by this time should have ac- quired a place on Roapoke's list of en- | terprising citizens. Convention Hall gains a promising manager in Stocking, but loses a great | bowler in Jack Whalen. Jack is headed for & berth as assistant manager of the glant Blick alley at Atlanta. His pay has been raised phenomenally, or al- g\nst that much, according to Boss lick. ‘Whalen, who leaves shortly, will spend two weeks helping get things started at the new Blick place at Norfolk and a week or so doing the same thing at Greensboro. By that time the Atlanta | establishment will be ready for business. Frank Sienley, well known in Wash- ington, will have charge at Atlanta. 119 JUVENILES CARDED | IN HAWTHORNE STAKE | | CHICAGO, August 17 (#)—The 2- year-old Western turf championship |and $10,000 in added money attracted |'a field of 19 Western thoroughbreds for | the Chicago Juvenile Stakes at Haw- | thorne today.

Y., August 17.—Through & host of younger players pos- sessed of more speed, but less knowledge, Big Bill Tilden and Frank Hunter had advanced today to the final round of singles in the Eastern grass court championships. They were to meet this afternoon for the title won last year by John Doeg of Santa Monica, Calif. Tilden climaxed a week of erratic play by trouncing Doeg in the semi- final round yesterday, after a four-set battle, 6—3, 3—86, 6—4, . Hunter advanced to the final round at the ex- pense of H. W. (Bunny) Austin, Brif star, 6—4, 3—6, 6—2, 1—8, 6—1. ‘Tilden displayed some of his finest tennis to beat Doeg. He outgeneraled the Santa Monica youth throughout ex- cept in the second set, when Doeg broke through Tilden's service. Hunter and Austin put on an interest- ing duel, with the New Rochelle veter- an’s experience and hard driving game triumphing over the Englishman’s su- perior versatility of stroke.
