George Voigt's season was less bril- liant than in 1928, but he still is a great golfer, capable at both match and medal pla) His fight with Johnston in the amateur, that went 39 holes, was one of the best matches produced at Pebble Beach. Had George gone about his work a bit more seriously he might have progressed further in the cham- pionship, but at that it took the cham- pion three added holes to beat him. Chandler Egan, the grand old veteran from Medford, Oreg., returns again to a place among the first 10, A cham- pion more than 25 years ago, Egan had to be a great shot maker and courage- ous fighter to reach the semi-finals at Pebble Beach—which is what he did. Johnny Dawson of Chicago was barred from the national amateur, but he still is an amateur and one of the best. His march to the semi-finals of the British amateur was accompanied by a display of brilllant golf and had he played at Pebble Beach the results might have been different. There is no denying that Dawson is one of the best amateurs in the game. Eddie Held is rated tenth, his victory in the Canadian amateur and some fine play- in metropolitan events entitling him to consideration. The writer recognizes thoroughly the abilities of Phil Finlay, Gene Homans, Roland McKenzle, Jess Sweetser and many other amateurs. But none of them accomplished much in cham- pionships of any sort. Sweetser needs another year of recuperation to regain his old form, while Finlay, Homans and McKenzie still lack real consistency.

C., MONDAY, OCTOBER 28 Goss Gives Tip On Proper Grip L HERE 15 - ¥ WHAT 15 MEANT 8Y GRIP — USE FINGERS LIKE. BY SOL METZGER. How do you grip your golf club? It's important that you do it cor- rectly. Last week we went into the natural way of applying the grip. You recall it was done by swinging each arm forward, without turning or twisting it from its natural hang- ing position at your sides. Then you took hold of the club. ‘There are all sorts of grips. The eight-finger grip will now come into popular usage again, as Jimmy Johnston used it when winning the United States amateur at Febble Beach. That's O. K. Use it or the overlap or the interlock. But in gripping, grip right. By that I mean grip with your grip much as an eagle grips with its talons. Goss says you take the club so that it rests on the inside of the second plane of the fingers, the first plane of the fingers being on the same plane as the back of your hand. That's his way of teaching. Tomorrow—Where this places the left hand. Your game is as good as your drive. Write Sol Metzger, care of this paper, requesting his free 1 let on driving.

And we re- tort that all treasures are not buried in chests, beneath spreading oaks or in the sands of tropic shores. Hidden treasure is everywhere if you can but find it.

How long do you suppose & man of his spirit and attainments would have lived cooped up in & stuffy office or tied fast to a routine job? Not long. Finding the Fountain of Youth is unimportant, avoiding those fountains whose waters quench the fires of youth and the desire for adventure is the real difficulty. Some desire the treasure but are un- | willing to dig for it. Such is the case with some of our boatmen, they desire the treasure of real enjoyment of boat- ing without the effort necessary to ob- tain such enjoyment. Merely having the price is not the secret. Living with and loving, bracing together to the shocks, carrying on through fog and wind and rain, lazying together in calm and fair weather, healing her hurts—she may heal _yours—adventuring together, through_ these alone may the treasure be found. . Observe the fellow new to the boating fraternity. Ofttimes he is one of those {“with the price,” who has jumped in and purchased hurriedly and attempts to en- joy the water to the full in the same manner. He arrives at the boat hur- riedly, he and his friends rush aboard, the motor roars and away down river he dashes at top speed, returning in a short time in the same manner. | This continues at less frequent in- | tervals for » month or so.

'OR the boatman whose boat so far has been without a name because of newness or lack of inspiration we suggest that one way of avoiding re- course to the old stunt of combining family names to form an unintelligible and ofttimes ridiculous “moniker” for the ship is to look through books about waterfowl and fishes for names ‘that will be appropriate and much more fit- ting than such as Mary Agnes or Annette Q. How about some of these: Teal, Pelican, Grebe, Sandpiper, Heron, Kingfisher, Loon, Gannett, Sea Eagle. Or of the finny tribe: Octopus, Squid. Characteristics of the craft should not be overlooked, and usually will fur- nish an excellent clue for a name, for instance: If a user of large amounts of gas and oil we suggest Anaconda or perhaps Gourmet would do, the latter having a pleasing foreign’ sound.

HAT would you think if you had battled your orpomnt to & draw for 35 holes of a 36-hole final round for a club champlonship, and then, &xc As you were preparing to sock that 1l a mile and grab a winning birdie, you topped your ball into an impossible lie in a ditch and lost the match and the championship? And particularly if it came immediately after a miracle shot on the hole before which enabled you to get a half on a hole that seemed irretrievably lost. All those things med to Leo F. Pass yesterday in the final of the club championship at Bannockburn, which was won 'by Leo's little playmate and scrappy golfer, Willlam L. (Bill) Pendergast. Bill won the championship four years ago and for one reason or another each time the championship tourney was played in the intervening years Bill was out of the city. Fore- seeing the possibility of the same thing oceurring this year, Bill looked up the calendar early in the year, and arrang- ed that he would be in town when the title chase was scheduled. He figured well, for yesterday he won the title after one of the most dogged fights in the history of golf at Bannockburn. And what a scrap it was. Bill and Leo were all even at the seventeenth hole in the first round. Bill won the etgmunth to become 1 up at the turn. They had medal scores of 76 and 177. And they were all even at the twenty- seventh again, both playing fine golf and fighting. They haived the long tenth in par, and Pendergast won the short eleventh with a par 3, and they split the long twelfth in par. Fighting hard to get even, Leo won the short thirteenth with a par 3 when Pender- gast'’s ball found the ditch. They split the difficult fourteenth, and Pendergast dropped the short fifteenth when he lost his ball in the woods at the right. And Leo, not to be outdone in courtesy, lost his ball at the left on the long sixteenth and the match was square again, At the seventeenth it looked as if Pendergast was to become dormie 1 up, for he put his ball on the green from the tee while Leo's tee shot was in the ditch. But Leo played a great shot after taking a penalty stroke, shot that nearly holed out for a 3, and Bill took three putts and they halved the hfl'lxe‘hm fours. en. came that eighteenth, where Leo tried to pole one a mile and possibly et & winning birdie.

Albright annexed the event for the Liberty Cup last week. The Siamese Cup tourney sees the return to club competition of the veteran John H. Clapp, who at one time was chair- man of the Chevy Chase golf commit- tee, and one of the club’s most promi- nent players, but who has not played in any event at Chevy Chase for sev- eral years. ‘The Bannockburn Golf Club intends to spread out into a new field of actiy- ity this Fall and Winter. Harry F. Krauss, who had been one of Washing- ton's leading bowlers for many years, has been asked to lead a bowling team made up of members of the club, and probably will form at least three teams. Among the candidates for the team are T. W. McGuire, Leo F. Pass, Willlam L. Pendergast, W. Fred Byrne and Martin J. McInernery. The club team has an- nounced it will challenge all bowling teams made up of members of golf clubs about Washington. The Washing- ton Golf and Country Club already has a large group of bowlers who go to the alleys each Thursday night. Among the pin-spillers of the Wash- ington club are D, C. Gruver, C. T. Lynes, Dr. Thomas J. Rice, G. T. How~ ard, R. J. Wise and R. A. Dougan. J. Monro Hunter, Indian Spring pro- fessional, was opposed to Alex Taylor of Hagerstown in one semi-final match in the match pldy championship of the Middle Atlantic Professional Golfers’ Association at the Suburban Club of Baltimore today, while Bob Barnett of Chevy Chase was to match shots with the long-hitting Glenn S.

Four golfers tied for first place at net 76 in the medal play handicap event at the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club_yesterday. They were Col. A. G. Fisher, Comdr. J. A. Saun- ders, Maj. H.

McCarthy in the final round of the club championship by 3 and 2. All even at the end of the first 18 holes of the 36-hole final, they were still all even at the twenty-seventh hole, with McCarthy staging a rally on the third nine after Moore had gone into a three-hole lead. McCarthy was 1 up at the twelfth hole in the afternoon, but then went wild from the tee, putting his tee shots into the woods on three consecutive holes and losing them all. He lost the fifteenth by taking 3 from the edge of the green, and at the sixteenth he was in trouble most of the way to the green. Moore put his second shot in casual water in a bunker at the sixteenth green, but standing on the edge of the hazard he played the ball between his legs close enough to get the putt down that won him the match. J. R. Dawkins won in class B, de- feating G. Fred Springer by 2 up. Springer was 5 up at the turn, but Dawkins camé back with a rush in the afternoon to win the match. Francis Owens was 5 up on H. F.
