PORTL ’S PRIDE. [@] OF PORTLAND, ORECON, WeSTERN GOLF CHAMPION. AND MEMBER oF e VICTOROUS US. WALKER CuP TEAM), S has often been said, “Any- thing can happen in golf.” A splendid example of that fact occurred in the recent Walker Cup matches at Sandwich. An Englishman—a true “stout fellah,” for his name was J. A. Stout—was playing almost perfect golf on the second day of the matches to lead 19-year-old Don Moe of Portland, Oreg, by seven strokes, “That match,” said many a British golf enthusiast, as he left the one- sided encounter to seek another with more of the elements of an even struggle, “is one Old England isn't going to lose.” But these British fans didn’t know the University of Oregon junior with the pink cheeks and youthful, boyish face. All Mr. Moe did was to play 14 consecutive hgles in five under even 4s. From thé fourth hole home he holed every putt under 10 feet. At the eis teenth, with the match all squared, “Dynamic Don” hit an iron shot that traveled straight on a line for 200 yards and stopped less then four feet from the pin. “Well, I'll be——,” was the stout-hearted Mr. Stout's comment, when he saw where his opponent’s ball lay. “How many did he take to get there?” Stout’s putt jumped out of the cup and he conceded, the hole, losing as epic & golf match as the historic Walker Cup—or any international competi- tion has ever witnessed. Moe's unofficial 67 bettered the course record of 68, made in 1911 by pnothér American, Douglas Grant. Ten_thousand spectators acclaimed the brilliant golf shot by the tall big kid in the black sweater and prophe- sled great things for him in the fu- ture. “A threat to win our amateur title,” said more than one Britisher, dolefully. Bobby Jones, in his story on the match, wrote, “How he (Moe) Pick-Ups From the Sandlots HEN Wes McDonald's Inter- state team beat Navy Yard yesterday they shoved them- selves into second place and Navy Yard deeper in the cellar.

In the last two games, Bleler has hit safely six times in eight trips to the plate. Johnny Cumberland, hustling third- sacker, probably will be lost to his team for the rest of the season. Cumberland will leave town Monday. It was a hot day for base ball yes- terday and both Rudding and Ernie| v: Hiser were about “out” at times, but stayed in the game.

WALKER OUNG JOE C. MARSHALL, the new junior District chess cham- plon, had the title within his grasp when he made a slip and threw the game away, allowing H. C. Harris to take the second game and, for the time being, tle him in their match to decide the crown. Marshall opened with a Vienna at- tack, which Harris defended well. However, on his tenth turn Harris made a break which cost him a pawn and opened his king to a severe at- tack. Harris then captured a pawn and placed his queen out of play. Marshall developed an irresistible at- tack and was so certain of victory ‘that he carelessly captured a rook, defended by the remote queen, and lost his queen thereby, whereupon he Tesigned. In the ninth round, however, Marshall again was victorious, and as Harris thus suffered his second defeat in the tournament he was ‘eliminated thereby from the contest, leaving Marshall the sole player remaining and the junior District title holder for the ensuing year. The scores of the games which have been examined show that he won the ‘title on his merits. Harris, how- ever, put up a good fight. Chess Director Bishop is to be con- gratulated on his success in arranging for this junior tournament and carry- ing it through.

Be- fore yesterday's public high school championship track meet Hap said he figured Central would beat Tech out for second place by two points. Central's margin over Tech was just a little more than that, 41-3 points to be exact. i The Mexicans, American Zone representatives in the advanced Davis Cup rounds, interest in the United States-Mexican matches at Chevy Chase Club this afternoon was to center around the play of four youngsters—John Doeg and Ricardo Tapia, who were to have it out in one of the two remaining singles matches, and John Van Ryn and Frederico Sendel, youngest member of the Mexican squad, who were scheduled to clash in the other. Play was to start at 2:30. Should Mexico win both of these en- counters, she would still be bested by Uncle Sam, for rday saw the round clinched with the third straight vic- tory by Uncle S8am’s hard-hitting crew. Van Ryn and Allison, administering a straight set defeat to Capt. Manuel Liano and Alphonso Unda, 6—0, 6—1, 6—3, swept past the last barrier to the American zone title. On Thursday the United States had won two singles matches, opening the series. Of the two matches on the card this afternoon the one which promised to be the closest was that between Doeg and Tapia, as the latter has had an op- portunity to become accustomed to the courts and the climate in his earlier appearance on the opening day of play. But, for the fans who have been fol- lowing the series through, the Van Ryn- Sendel match was expected to hold especial interest, as neither of these two has been seen in singles action dur- ing the meeting, except for the “eccen- tric” set played last evening between Van Ryn and J. Gilbert Hall, the lat- ter without a racket. Sendel is the youngest member of the Mexican con- tingent and Van Ryn is the most spec- tacular player with the U. S. outfit. Following the officlal play, an ex- hibition doubles match was booked. ‘The contestants were not announced in advance. ‘The opening set of the doubles yes- terday was singularly ltckll? in thrills. seeming to find it diffi- cult to adjust themselves to their sur- roundings, offered little or no resist- nn | ence to the hard pacing, if somewhat N [lazy backcourt play of the Americans, who so obviously outclassed their oppo- nents that_there seemed to be no argu- ment at all. Both Van Ryn and Alli- son showed up impressively in their service performance, but noné of the four seemed really on his- toes. Llano and Unda woke up in the sec- ond set and made things a little more lively, but still were far beyond their depth when it came to handling the terrific smashes of Van Ryn's racket as the United States team assumed the aggressive forecourt position. In the third set, some brilliant flashes and rapid exchanges at the net relieved the monotony of early stages and added both to the error score of the Americans and to the interest of the match from the spectators’ standpoint. Points were more even throughout. Starting off with a determined aggressive which was in direct contrast to their former tactics, the Mexicans corralled two straight games to go into the lead. The Ameri- cans caught up with them, however, at the end of the fourth game and took the lead in the fifth at 3-2. Three double faults on Van Ryn's service in the sixth frame gave Mexico her last chance at a win. lano and Unda annexed this game to tle the count, but in the sev- enth were forced to yield Llano's serv- ice, and with it the edge on the deciding set. Allison won his own service with ease. The Americans then advanced to the net once more and polished the match off with a flourish the ninth and final game. D) Connie Doyle, Washington's ace of aces, was in the umpire’s chair for the international match. Lou Doyle um- ired the exhibition doubles which fol- wed. In this, Doeg and Lott, after getting off to a r start, rallied to defeat Berkley Bell and, Gregory Man- gin, 0—6, 6—1, 6—3. Then, to the amusement of the gallery, J. Gilbert Hall took Johnny Van Ryn cver the jumps for a 6-3 trimming, using only his bare hands to make his “shots.” It is rumored that Hall was once a pitcher on a ball team—if he says not, then :lk:,ere must be something in reincarna- n. Seecretary of State Stimson is the honorary referee for the Davis Cup con- tests; A. Y. Leech, umpire chairman, had assisting him yesterday, in addition to the Messrs, yle, ghe following linesmen: A.

A crowd of more than 1,000 en- thusiasts witnessed the matches. Simpson and Tolan Show Speed Minus Use of Starting Blocks VANSTON, I, May 24 (®.— Eddie Tolan of Michigan and George Simpson of Ohio State threw away their starting blocks today to run what each hoped would be the fastest 100-yard dash & cinder track ever saw. In the qualifying trials of the thir- tieth annual Western Conference out- door track and field championships yes- at N:_rfihwenm; v;i‘:'le‘;;lz Simpson and Tolan again es! e mapann, without using locks ter n without using and Tolan, ll&':h them. Simpson turned the s&rfinh, easily taking the 100 in the excellent time of :09.7, and Tolan finis] just as easily bne- tenth of a second slower—both run- ning in a brisk rainstorm. The Ohio speedster was just as in the 220, winn| his trial in :21; while Tolan Neither was pressed. True to his promise, Simpson worked without the wooden starting blocks, and was almost certain to battle Tolan without them today. Tolan used the blocks, because Coach Steve Farrell re- fused to take a chance on losing point$ by a starting accident that might have left the tiny Negro unplaced. As has been the case for the past 12 STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE H, if I only had a putter I could u How many times has that despairing cry risen from putting greens as the ball brushed past the lip of the cup and the stroke that should have won a golf match succeed- ed only in bringing on another attack of those putting blues? ‘Mrs. Hume Wrong, winner yesterday of the French High Commission Cup for women at the Chevy Chase Club, drove within six feet of the pin on the twenty-seventh hole of her final match with Mrs. A, 8. Merrill and then took three putts to halve the match, where two putts would have won the match, which she eventually annexed on the thirty-fourth hole of the overtime strug- gle. And as the putt she h would win the contest rolled past Jip of the cup she said: “Oh, if I only had a putter I could use. Near the ninth green, which was the twenty-seventh of the elongated match, sat Mrs. Frank R. Keefer, president of the Women's District Golf Association, k | who had no_ favorite in the Wrong- Merrill match, but who sympathizes deeply with golfers who miss putts, for e has missed her share of them her- self. She loaned her putter to Mrs. Wrong as the finalists started out over. the last nine of their match, and so effectually did Mrs. Wrong wield Mrs. Keefer's putter that she annexed the overtime contest on the thirty-fourth green, winning by 3 and 2 in 36 holes. That final round was & well and hard fought match, with both contestants so closely matched that there was little to choose between them. Among the high lights was Mrs. Merrill's. courageous stand over the third nine, after she had laid Mrs. Wrong a stymie on the eight- eenth hole to square. On_ the fourth hole of the second round Mrs. Wrong laid Mrs. Merrill a dead stymie and Mrs. Merrill, undaunted, took a mashie niblick from her bag and jumped her ball over that of Mrs. Wrong into the cup for a win. Then came the twenty- seventh hole, where Mrs. Wrong needed to get down in two putts to win and took three, and then putted beautifully over the final nine with Mrs. Keefer's putter to win by 3 and 2. Mrs. Keefer's putter did not work so well for her- self, however, for she lost in the con- solation final to Mrs. Harrison Brand, jr., by a 2-and-1 margin. ‘The next tourney for Chevy Chase women, outside of the events of the ‘Women’s District tion, is the competition for the Siamese tea set u'o?hy, which will be played June 2-6, inclusive, at handicap match play. .

The contest is billed to start tomorrow, and a qualify- ing round has been dispensed with. All the entrants will be paired and sent forth to eliminate each other at match play. If any of the golf gentry who think Fred McLeod has lost his cunning want to take a crack at the man whom Sherman Ford calls the “golf doctor” they will find that he is playing par- ticularly well these days. But the rub comes on the putting green, for McLeod, usually the most accurate of putters, can't find the bottom of the cup. Two days ago he played Columbia in 70 strokes in a game with “Sep” Colliny and Billy Malloy, two of his aides, and in this 70 were four greens where the former open champion took three putts. On 16 of the holes he reached the greens in perfect figures and only be- cause he couldn’t putt for sour apples he failed to break 70 by several strokes. His three-putt greens were the sixth, eighth, eleventh and fifteenth. He had a great chance to be out in 33, for he started 4, 3, 3, 3, two birdies and two pars, but he finally got out in 35. He came back in the same figures for the 70. McLeod is to leave Washington tomorrow _evening _for Philadelphia, where he will play Mon« day in the competition for the Willle Anderson_Trophy, open only to profes- sional golfers who have held jobs in the United States for 20 years or more. He is billed to compete in the 18-hole tourney with Gil Nickols, another old- timer, as & partner. Mrs. John W. Thomason and Mrs. Charles Humphrey tied for first place in the women's tourney Thursday at the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club, both registering net scores of 40. Mrs, C. A Blakley had a net of 42, and Mrs. A. B Brown had a net card of 43.

The Wolverines and _Illinois, along with Iowa, qualified 15 men each in the 11 events yesterday. Several of the Iowa places, however, were down am trailers in the weights. Illinois failed to qualify a man only in the discus throw, while Mic failed to get a man into the of either hurdle event or the 880-yard run. Ohio State qualified 13, Wisconsin, 11; Chicago, 6; Northwestern, 5; Minnesota, 4, and In- diana and Purdue, 3 each. Lee Sentman, crack Illinois hurdler, accounted for an excellent perform- ance in the 120-yard high hurdles, win- ning his heat in :14.7, one-tenth of a second slower than the conference rec- ord. He also, with Dick Rockaway of Ohio State, qualified in the low hurdles, Rockaway having the best time, 24 sec- onds flat, Orval Martin of Purdue, premier dis- tance runner of the Big Ten, was held out of the 880-yard run trials, leav- ing Dale Letts of Chicago as the fa- vorite. Letts yesterday topped the qualifiers in 1:56.9. Martin was expected to go after a new conference record for the mile run, in which he had to beat the splendid 4:15.8 set in 1917 by Eddie Oberlin.

To make the left the all-powerful and guiding hand and arm in this shot Abe grips the mashie with the back of his left hand facing the flag, just as he does when putting. Remember th's run-up is played like the putt, oniy with a more lofted club. Only his thumbs fore- fingers grip the club, hence a deli- cate shot must follow. Abe anchors that left shoulder. Its rigidity is the essence of the shot. It is on the same line as the ball must travel. “Long Iron Shots” is Mef 'S new, free, illustrated leaflet. rite for it.

ATHOLIC UNIVERSITY'S ' base ball game with Seton Hall today at South Orange, N. J., marks the wind-up of its athletic schedules for the current year. The con- test is the last of a three-game trip, the two others having been with Delaware and St. John’s of Brooklyn. C. U. is hoping to mark the conclusion of its 1929-30 competitions with a victory. This has been something of an in- and-out year for Catholic University teams. In foot ball at times it played brilliantly, while once or twice it broke down and made poor showings. How- ever, in the one or two games in which the Brooklanders did not make good showings several of the best players ;velie out of the line-up because of in- juries. ‘The basket ball team did the poorest .work in many years, while the base ball nine in some of itS games has seemed almost perfect in its play, but in several of lgls late contests has fallen down mis- erably. The track and fleld squad was just the beginning of an attempt to put that branch of athletics on a good basis, 50 not much could be expected in that direction. Yesterday the Catholic University team lost to St. John's of Brooklyn b) 16 to 4 in what was a slugging mate! as far as St. John's own batters were concerned.

Georgetown won from Providence College by 8 to 7 in the opening game of its Northern trip. The Blue and Gray scored five runs in the first two innings, but Providence College came back and started scoring so regularly that the Blue and Gray went into its half of the eighth inning with the count T to 5 against it. Doubles by Scalzi and Wholey, a wild throw and a home run by Tierney produced three runs in the eighth inning and put Qeorgetown in front by one marker. Providence College used several pitch- hitters in the ninth, but none could come through. Poole, who started the ltchmT‘ for Georgetown, weakened in he fifth and sixth, allowing two runs in each inning. Lomax, who took Poole’s fyhu on the siab, was much more effective.
