SPORTS. _ THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. S.% SPORTS. B-7 Jones’ Victory Is Present From Voigt : Trojans ‘Reach for Cardinals’ Title GEORGE HAD MATCH AL BUT LOCKED UP Both Players Display Human Weaknesses in Grueling Semi-Final Test. BY BERNARD DARWIN, British Golf Expert. T. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 30.—Bobby Jones has nearly got his heart’s desire now. He has reached the finals of the British amateur golf cham- ionship, in which he will meet | oger Wethered, the stoutest- hearted match player we have to put against him. While Bobby has reached the honor of the final, he came des- perately, horribly near being shipwrecked within sight of it. George Voight had, humanly speaking, “got him.” George was 2 up with 5 to play, and I don’t think now Bobby had enough kick left in him to wrest the nec- essary holes from his opponent. So if Bobby were going to win he had to be helped. He cculd take the match only if it were handed to him, and this, to the unbounded surprise of everybody, was ‘what Voigt did. On the very threshold of victory, George faltered, and fal- tered badly. Bobby took heart and also what the ods of golf gave im, just scram- bling home in front. But a_scramble it was. I don't think I ever saw a closer sun match. The morning was ‘comparatively dull. Jones, after one mistake at the first hole, was his most brilliant self against Eric Fiddian, a boy of 20 with a golfing future. Jones just kept on playing ! r golf until he won by 4 and 3, and at was that. Voigt Putts Badly. George Voigt played William Sutton, an artisan golfer from Cheshire, who was the English champion last year. The American began by taking three guf.u on each of the first two greens. George Ve wondered if he had ever done that | before. away childish things and, playing beau- tifully, he went ahead step by step until he won, 5 and 4. And now for the great semi-final between the two Americans. It was full of good golf and full of excite- ment, but somehow not quite what we anticipated. Instead of two precise machines fol- Jowing one another, shot for shot, we saw two eminently human men, each palpably frightened by his enemy and each giving ordinary proofs of ordinary human frailty. If Bobby had lost—and never was a champion nearer losing—it would have Nflwl h:l& putting that didgiulo.d up greens was as as ever, but he could not hole the doubtful At any rate, he quickly put|s— Chip Shot Hard Stroke to Master BY SOL METZGER. Of the approach shots of golf in common use the chip is the hardest to master. It is a lofted shot, some- what like the pitch, that must be used to reach and hold the green, preferably near the pin, from lies that require you to jump your ball over some sort of hazard, or from others that will not permit vou to - R 5-20 o use the run-up or pitch, such as we often face in the rough. It is also used from sand when the lie is ex- cellent. The player sketched is playing a chip. He is just off the green. But between him and the green is a trap. He has to loft his ball over this hazard and try to hold it somewhere near the pin. Therefore, mastery of the chip is a gromt stroke saver. To keep down your score you must know how to play it, else you will continually be in trouble from which you cannot extricate yourself. “I'm helpless when it comes to long iron shots.” How many times | have you said this?

No one of them ‘was unpardonable, but their cumulative effect was de . Some of them ‘were for halves, but most of them were for wins. As well as Voigt played, Jones last chan mearly al had the 3 wultllym:‘fivllkalfi e Both Start Well. ‘The most elemen piece of golfing o not take them time will come when your enemy in turn will get his chance and take it. Voigt did get his chance and did take it and then threw it away ®gain with both hands. The match had a dramatic start in Voigt bunkered and lost the second. He should have squared_at the fourth, but took three putts. Bobby was still 1 up, but putted Vvery weakly at the fifth hole and lost| his advantage. Voigt played the .sixth badly and #gain Jones became 1 up, only to throw it away at the seventh by a really dreadful putt. The next three holes were halved, but Bobby might well hl‘t:;eh‘e-sn m of Lhe'l; if he could have «clingl gs on the green. Clear] this could not go on and it did not. i Volgt, having the honor, played a|, beauty to the short eleventh, the sort of shot that makes your enemy feel that the best he can look for is a half. But Bobby was too bold. He overran and lost, 4 to 3. George was 1 up for the first time, and it looked as if he would hang on like grim death. Another half followed, and then a| very scratchy, scrambling 5 by Bobby and a 5-foot putt holed by Voigt with the utmost confidence. “Bobby’s beaten!” Tide Suddenly Turns, You could hear it all about you in the crowd, and he looked beaten. Voigt had only to keep steady, a thing which is difficult for most of ‘us, but seemed simple for him. With a sudden rush the tide turned, and Voigt went out of bounds, though he had the whole parish to drive into. and that meant, besides the loss in dis- tance, a penalty of one stroke, and Voigt ‘was down to 1 up. At the fifteenth Voigt had a 6-foot putt and Bobby a 4-footer. Voigt missed and the crowd gasped. Bobby missed after him and the crowd groaned. It Wwas a stand-off, but Voigt did not profit by it, for he put his next drive into a bunker, and Bobby never gave him the ghost of a chance to recover. The match wn’;‘h:u aqu‘lr}: Pow. next hole was greatly played by ®oth. Two good shots to right strategic gsmom at the foot of the hill and bby played the odd. It was a good one, but not supremely good, being 10 Teet short. Voigt played as great a shot 8s he ever will play—stone dead at the #ide of the hole. Death now stared Bobby between the eyes. If he missed that putt George Voigt would be dormy 1 and would never let him slip ahead agatn and the British championship was as good as gone. Bobby holed it—all honor to him. Valley Fatal to Voigt. I could not see the hole for the crowd, but Bobby's attitude was eloguent. At the last hole Voigt was short in the fatal Valley of 8in, and Bobby played & superb pitch within 8 feet of the hole. Voigt ran up 6 feet short. Bob- by's ball went straight for the hole. His hand went out to pick it out of the cup, but it stopped suspended on the very last blade of grass. Then Voigt missed for a half, rather a sad anti-climax, but what a match it had been between these two great golfers! Bobby's score was 75, and it is the highest testimeny to him that we think it & bad showing for him. Heaven knov what his score would have been wil better putting. Now Bobby meets Roger Wethered, who has been playing in-and-out golf with amazing courage and some bril- liant streaks. Bobby will start off on his favorite long trail of 36 holes, and €hould win, But there is this to be said, that Wethered, at St. Andrews, {5 far Wife His Inspiration, Jones Pulls “Merriwell” ' BY 0. B. KEELER, (For the Associated Press.) ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 31. —Of course this sounds like a Frank Merriwell finish, but the fact re- mains that it is precisely what ‘happened: Bobby Jones came up to the sec- ond shot on the final hole of his toughest match. He stood with a short and dangerous pitch between him and the eighteenth hole with George Voigt, after his own second shot, in the “Valley of Sin” in front of the home green at St. Andrews. As Bobby took his stance he look- ed up at the balcony on the second floor of the grand hotel. Bobby's wife, Mary Jones, was standing there. Bobby knew that she would be_there. And Mary waved at him. Bobby is a bit uncertain whether he waved back, but his gesture was unmistakable and a slice out of the inevitable. Bobby's reply to Mary's salutation was a perfect pitch two yards from the pin to win his hard- est golf match. Along the By Carrol RUISE stories. Yards of them.

Low Hurdles By the Associated Press. 1 HICAGO, May 31.—An amazing performance of 0:23.6 for the 220-yard low hurdles—a new national high school record by Amsden Oliver, 17-year-old Negro from Roosevelt High, Dayton, Ohio, was the background for entrants in the twenty- sixth annual University of Chicago na- tional track and fleld championships who today sought more new marks in the finals, Oliver appeared to be put to no trouble to win his preliminary heat in the low hurdles yesterday. He jogged in six yards ahead of his nearest com- petitor in record time. His mark bet- tered the record of 24 seconds flat set last year by Jack Keller of East High, Columbus, Ohio. Ivan Fuqua of Brazil, Ind,, who estab- lished the meet record of 0:49.4 for the 440-yard dash last year, qualified in the 100 and 220 yard dashes and the broad jump yesterday. He did the century in 0:10.1 and did 0:21.9 for the furlong and was not pressed in either race. Charlie Casper of Harlandale, Tex., was another of the triple qualifiers. He got into both hurdles and the jump, whie Al Morin of David Proudy High, Spencer, Mass., a brother of George Morin, Holy Cross track cap- tain, qualified in both sprints and the broad jump. Froebel High of Gary, Ind., the de- fending titleholder, qualified 14 men in the six events tried, four better than Mooseheart (Ill.) High, which was sec- ond. Horace Mann of Gary had eight men in the finals and Fort Collins, Colo., the only three-time winner of the meet, had seven and several entered in events in which no qualifying was necessary. STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE - BY W. R. McCALLUM ‘T least two high officials of twin branches of Uncle Sam’s civilian services know today how to make & hole in 1. To one of them the hole in 1 that came on the fourteenth at Burning Tree yesterday from the club of Joseph E. Davies, for- mer Federal Trade commissioner, seemed as so much manna from heaven, while to the other it simply prolonged a golf match that was ultimately won on the sixteenth hole. Davies has been playing golf a long time. He used to play at Chevy Chase, but in late years he has confined his links activities almost exclusively to Burning Tree. Yesterday he and the genial “Nick” Longworth, presiding elder of the House of Representatives, thought they might have a chance to beat Walter R. Tuckerman and Robert P. Lamont, Secretary of Commerce, who hails from Chicago, where golf is just a routine of the day around Lake Forest and Winnetka. Tuckerman and Lamont were leading | as Davies and Longworth prepared 1o | play the fourteenth. They thought they might have a chance to win the four- teenth, but they hardly expected an ace to do it. Davies stepped up with an iron club and before the astonished eyes of the czar of the House and the man who holds the strings of Uncle Sam's foreign commerce in his hands the ball popped into the hole for an ace. But Tuckerman is an old campaigner of many years of golf. That ace didn't disturb him at all. He breezed back over the last nine in 34 strokes—two under par—and he and Lamont won the match by 3 and 2. Tuckerman shot a score of 74 for the round, after getting out in an indifferent 40. Davies scored an 88, and Longworth and La- mont were 98 and 100, respectively. ‘The fourteenth hole at Burning Tree is 148 yards in length, OTS of .things happened on golf courses about Washington yester- day. There were all sorts of tou namenis from tombstone contests—ap- propriate for . the days—to blindfold driving competitions. Over at Washington two golfing gents who seldom have figured in the list of winners in_competitions were happy as they went home from the club, for both had their names in the prize list. Two weeks ago Charles T. Claggett, execu- tive of the local telephone company, broke 90 for the first time, and yester- day he continued the improved brand of golf he has been shooting this year by winning the eighth flight in the miniature tourney staged by the club. It was the second victory Claggett has scored in a month, for he won a medal play event three weeks ago. For Frank G. Addison, however, his win of the consolation ot the eighth flight was his first victory in a tournament. Here are final results in the Washington tourney: First flight—Winner, E, P.

This magazine suggests BxP for ‘Whitaker instead of Q—KKT3, and states that Sir George had six moves to make in about four or five minutes, and the position was so complicated it looked as if he could not find the right moves and save his game.

BYRD, ‘WO Maryland players have been picked for the all-America la- crosse team that is to meet the best 12 in Canada at Toronto, | the second week in June. Al Heagy, defense, and Bill Evans, generally rated | the best attack man in the country, are the men notified yesterday that they Rave been selected along with 10 others from the other colleges and universities as the best the game has produced this year. Evans for two consecutive years, against the hardest kind of opposition and despite the fact that he has been covered more closely than any other player, has led the country’s attack men in scoring. Last year he finished in the lead by & margin of onlv three goals, but this Spring he has almost a two-to-one record against his near- | est_competitor, Evans is a great attack man, not| only because of his own ability to score, but also because he knows what team play -means, and his passing to his war]mnnoes enables them to register goals. Heagy has been a consistently good player for three years and he probably reached his zenith last week, when he put up one of the greatest games against | Hopkins that any defense man ever played anywhere, The United States Intercollegiate La- crosse Association, the organization that governs lacrosse in the American col- leges, is sponsoring the invasion of Canada. It seems that the champion team of Canada invited the association to send the best college twelve in the | United States for a game, but after visiting Canada and watching the Canadians in action, representatives of the association decided that no Ameri- can college 'could hope to compete on even terms with them and concluded to send the All-America aggregation, the best 12 men in the colleges.

No contest in any sport this Spring has aroused as much attention as this one, as it is likely to decide the national championship. If Navy wins, it will | have a clear right to the title. If Maryland is victor, despite its defeat by St. John’s, it is likely to have an edge on the other aspirants. It is expected that 15,000 persons will watch the game. There is not much doubt that the Navy field will be taxed to its limit, and further, there is not much doubt that one of the greatest lacrosse contests that have ever been played will take place. Gtoncm'own won the final game of its base ball season yesterday at New Haven by whipping Yale 10 to 9. It was the second game in as many days in which both the Blue and Gray and its opponent scored freely. It lost to New York University Thursday by 11 to 10. And, incidentally, in the game played prior to the one with N. Y. U, a total of 16 runs were made. ale out-hit Georgetown yesterday, but did not hit so effectively. The Dark Blue made a total of 14 bingles against eight for the Blue and Gray. George- town had Yale on the short end of a 10-to-7 score until the last inning when Yale made two runs, and probably caused the Blue and Gray players to come near fainting because of the pos- sibility of losing another game in the | final inning by 11 to 10, just as they dropped the N.

Of course you should be sure your bat has good wood in it and is not Jjust a light “fungo” stick. The lighter the bat feels, the greater mastery the batter holds over it. That is the reason most great hitters swing three or four bats just before their turn to hit. Grover Cleveland Alexander, the famous pitcher, used to toss a 12- pound shot around before warming up to pitch, for the same reason. The ball was not actually lighter, but it felt lighter!

TRACK DOPESTERS SEEL.S. C. VICTORY Figures to Score Points in Eleven of Fifteen Events of 1. C. A. A. A. A. Meet. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press. Sports Writer, AMBRIDGE, Mass.,, May 31. —The matter of shifting the intercollegiate track and field capital from Palo Alto to Los Angeles for 1930 ap- peared likely to be settled today, with Southern California’s versa- tile band of Trojans favored to end the three-year reign of Stan- ford’s mighty Cardinals as cham- pions of the I. C. A. A. A. A The battle for team honors shared the closing day's spotlight with a spee- tacular sprint struggle involving three of the country’s fastest—Frank Wykoft of Southern " California, Hector Dyer of Stanford and Eddie Tolan of Michi- gan, the world record holder for the 100 yards. Paced by the marvelous achievements of those twin huskies, Eric Krenz and Harlow Rothert, the greatest pair of weight tossers in college athletic his- tory, Stanford began the defense of the team title yesterday in record-breaking style. In fact, after the day's pre liminaries, the Cardinals held a nue merical lead over the Trojans, 13 to 12, in qualifying places captured. Harvard qualified 7 to lead the Eastern pack. ‘Trojans Impressive. Actually, however, the demonstration of all-around strength by Southern Cal- ifornia was more impressive than that of the champions. As a consequence, as well as because of the reserve strength of the Trojans in such events as the pole vault and high jump, for which no preliminaries were held, the experts were nearly unanimous today in picking . 8. C. to win for the first time since 1925-26. ‘The dopesters figured Southern Cal- ifornia, barring unexpected breaks, to Stanford’s high n‘::rk of 453 last year, ‘The same figure jugglers expected the Cardinals to tally from 35 to 40 points, No other team in the field of 34 figured to tally more than 20 points. The prospects were that University of Southern California would tally in no less than 11 of the 15 championship events. For a victory, the Trojans relied chiefly upon their hurdlers, who Eer- formed impressively yesterday, especially Jeddy Welsh in the 120-yard events; Frank Wykoff, favorite in the 100-yard dash, who equaled the meet record of 9.7 seconds In the semi-finals in beating his Stanford rival, Hector Dyer; Stew: and Von Osdel, brilllant high jumper Mortensen and r in the javelin; Vic Williams, !u;&uflz\‘-mflfl: Mc- Gegh in the half- and Halstead in the mile. Rothert Clinches Title. Stanford pinned its hopes of a fourth straight triumph upon the sturdy shoul- ders of Krenz and Rothert in the shot- put and discus; Hec Dyer, leading con- tender in both sprints; Dowell and West in the broad jump and Roger Smith in the high husdles. Rothert had the shotput title clinched for the second successive time with & qualifying heave of 52 feet 1 inch, , Wwhich shattered the American as well as . A. A. A. A. records. The Stan- . surpassed Rothert's former meet record of 50 feet d | 3 inches. The trial marks stood for the finals today. Krenz whirled the «iscus 163 feet 8 inches, beating his meet record of 154 feet 11 inches by nearly 9 feet, but be- cause of a favoring wind the achieve- ment was not accepted as a new record. ‘The rangy Dyer, seeking a double sprint victory for the champions, faced the brilliant Wykoff only in the century, and Eddie Tolan of Michigan, the world’s 100-yard record-holder in both events. Tolan won his 100-yard semi- final yesterday in 9.8 seconds. Dyer’s best chance of triumph aj in the 220, which he ran in 21.7 in the trials. A bad ankle forced the century cham- plon, Karl Wildermuth of Georgetown, to default. ornia suffered an unexpected set- back when its captain, Al Pogolotti, was eliminated in the high hurdles, but the Golden Bears contributed a record- breaker in Kenneth Churchill, who threw’the javelin 207 feet 814 inches. to lead the qualifiers and make a new meet record. The list of qualifiers: Stanford, 13: Southern California, 12; Harvard, 7: Pennsylvania, Cornell, Michigan, New York University, Colgate, Yale, Dart- mouth and Syracuse, 4 each; Holy Cross and California, 3 each; Princeton, Union and Michigan State, 2 each, and :}‘. cil.N.

Something that millions love and hate Something that fills souls with despair, Something for which they keep a date To mingle in the open air. Something that . despise, To which crowds curse and ‘they cling when old and gray, And then look out beyond the skies To other courses they may play.

Somethlina that makes men leave their wives, Their homes and jobs, to sweat and curse In sanded depths and bunkered dives, In thickets, swamps and even worse. A game, religion, a disease, A heartache and a happy lure; A germ from which the victim fiees, And yet no medicine can cure. Fast Greens. HEY don't waler the greens in Eng- land or Scotland as they do over here, and after a few days of sun and wind they get as close to hard ice as nature can make them. Few golfers mn the United States can understand how difficult it is to pitch these greens and hold,them, no matter what the back spin, and few can under- stand how baffiing the putting can be- come. Bill Mehlhorn tells of a case last year when he made a desperate effort to lay a 4-foot putt dead and then saw the ball trickle 3 or 4 feet by the cup. There comes a time when one is afraid to hit a putt, and while this, as a sporting proposiiion is as fair for one as it 1s for another, it is a nerve-wreck- ing proposition for all concerned. I've seen good putiers over there afraid to go for a 4-footer, being content to get the first one close, especially on a winGy day. ITH the great stuff put across by ! Sam Rice, Joe Judge and other old-time team mates, Walter Johnson nd | WI° George Ade’s Neighbor, NE of the reasons Washington has been leading the American League is an old neighbor of George Ade's. He was born 38 years ago in Morocco, Ind., which is near Brook, Ind., and he was christened Edgar Charles Rice. For one reason or anuther they dropped the Edgar Charles for Sam, which may or may not be an Indiana custom. At any rate Sam Rice, who now is play- ing his sixteenth season with Wash- ington, has been leading the league most of the Spring, driving in a flock of Washington runs and cutting off & flock of rival tallles by his sprightly play in the fleld. Sam is quite a golfer on the side, always around 80, sometimes well under. I talked with him about the comparative forms of the two swings, golf and base ball, and he said they carried the same principles. “In each game,” he said, “you've got ta be back of the ball to hit it. I mean your weight must be back to get the punch in. In each game you've mh be careful not to swing too soon. Many ball players make this mistake., Nearly all golfers do. They are thinking too much of the act of hitting and not the swing itself. You can take more time than you think you can take in a base ball swing. “The same is true of a golf swing. In base ball I like to see a hitter, willing to wait and take his time, not one who lunges at the ball ahead of time. In golf I like to see a fellow who isn't in any great hurry to hit. But I'm not 50 anxious to play against him, for he generally 15 steady and hard to beat. “I felt I was growing stale a little while back, so I begged off and got in a round of golf. As I recall it, I got three hits in the next ball game and have been Ef"m‘ along ever since. I know working on the principle of the golf swing has helped me to recognize and cure hitting faults quicker than I used to cure them. There are certaln fundamentals that govern both games and any one who follows these funda- ‘mentals can’t go so far wrong.” (Copyright, 1930, by North American Newse paper Alliance.)
