WARDMAN TROPHY 15 HSTORE PRI Expected Hectic Struggle in Qualification Round, Opening Tuesday. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. OLFING legions of Wash-| ington and the surround- again will| turn their efforts toward ing territory the splendid course of the Colum- bia Country Club this week, where the annual joust for the Ward- man Trophy—one of Washington's historic golf trophies—will start day after tomorrow. Always a..racting a banner field. both in number of entrants and in skill of the cor:petitors, the Columbia tourna- ment again this year lives up to the best, traditions of such events by pres- enting the largest and possibly the best, field, in point of scoring possibili- ties, of any invitation tournament about the Capital. And just by way of passing, the Columbia tourney is the last of the big Spring events near the Capital, for Congressional, which usually holds a tourney late in June, has decided to abandon its event this year. ‘Where only a small group of Washing- tonians competed last week in the Mid- atlantic champlonship at Richmond, a large sector of Washington golfdom will be casting envious eyes toward those expansive Columbia greens this week, hoping to qualify in the hectic struggle that always takes place in the medal round at Columbia and later hoping to win one of the attractive rizes the club puts up for the victors its tournament. The tourney Wwill open Tuesday and conclude on Friday. with haif the entry list scheduled to lay on Tuesday and the other half on Prednesday. The main fignt will be in the medal round, for the scoring at Co- Jumbia, if last year's qualification round is an indication, is always a shade lower than at the other local tournments, because of the size and the class of the field, and not because Columbia is an easier golf course than the other lay- outs. The customary four match play rounds will follow on Thursday and Friday. Popular Tourney. e The Columbia tourney is regarded by most golfers as one of the two or three high spots of the competitive golf year sbout the Capital, for many men pass up other tournaments to concentrate on the Columbia event. In the list of winners of the Wardman Cup, since it first was played for in 1913, appear two members of the Walker Cup team and two of the most prominent golfers in America. Roland R. MacKenzie, who Jearned the game over Columbia’s roll- ing fairways, has won the tournament once, and George J. Voigt, semi-final~ ist in the recent British amateur cham pionship, has twice won the tourney. The first time Voigt won the event was back in 1924, when he was then playing at East Potomac Park. He won it also in 1927, when he had started on the impressive streak of victories that has led him to his present high post golf. Here is the complete list of vic- in the Columbia tourney since the Wardman Cup first was placed in com- ition: e 1913—Walter R. Tuckerman, Chevy Chase Club. 1914—B. chl'm Corkran, Balti- more Country Club. 1915—Walter J. Travis, Garden City Club. 1916—B. Wl(l;’v; Corkran, Balti- more Country Club. 19 ‘Walter R.

TULSA, Okla., June 7.—Mrs. Hiilbert, 8. Clarke of Oklahoma City won the 1930 championship of the Women's Transmississippi Golf Association here today, defeating Mrs. Derothy Klotz Pardue of Sioux City, Jowa, 6 and 5, 4n the 36-hole final match at the Tulsa Country Club. Playing in unwavering style. steadily and unbeatably for 31 holes, the Okla- homan ascended to the throne vacated by Mrs. O. S. Hill of Kansas City. who chose to piay in Europe rather than de- fend her title. Mrs. Clarke, twice holder of the Ok- y- flights lshoma women's title and for seven | est feminine | years among the State's golfers. tonight had her first major tournament. trophy. The Oklahoma City player had a five- up lead over her rival when they went to lunch, Mrs. Clarke carding an 83 to Mrs. Pardue’s 92 for the 18 holes. Mrs. Clarke won an even dozen holes just twice the number claimed by the owan. Mrs. Pardue won three of these on the afternoon round in a desperate effort to stage & comeback as she had done twice during the tournament, but ghe feel of her putter was not there. Tuesday. " . H.

ICHMOND, Va., June 7.—The Middle Atlantic amateur lfl“| crown tonight adorned the brow of the youngest player ever to wear it. He is Billy Howell of Richmond, 18 years old. In the final round of the champion- ship tournament, played on the James River course, the youngster took the measure of Alex Knapp of Baltimore, 2 and 1, and in doing so looked every bit & champion. Before reaching the final Howell ac- counted for two of Washington's strongest. entries. He eliminated Harry Pitt. of Manor, former champion, and John Shorey of Bannockburn. Shorey was beaten this morning in a 19-hole match. The Bannockburn player was 2 up at | the turn, after playing well nigh per- fect golf for nine holes. Then his game cracked. He lost his putting touch and some of his iron shots were off. In the second round Knapp de- feated the defending champion, B. Warren Corkran of Baltimore, 3 and 2. The new champion won the Virginia State title in 1928.

OR many years Mrs. Y. E.| Booker of Washington struggled | to break 100. Then she sudden- | ly found the magic remedy and | today she is the proud possessor of a score card of 83 for that trying Vir- | ginia layout. Out in a fine 40, she took 43 to play the last nine, but still she has the distinction of having played the course in figures lower than most of the star golfers who have pitted their skill against the difficylt course. Another member of the club who is showing improvement is Mary White, a sister of Dorothy White Nicolson, the District champion. FEATURE of the current ringer competition at Washington, which began nine days ago, is the fact that players may turn in ringer cards only on three days of the week, although how the committee plans to check off each member against the days he chooses to play is somewhat of a mystery., Last year the golf committee ruled | that ringer scores could only be turned | in on Saturdays and Sundays, but this | vear players have been allowed three | days a week in which to play for ringer scores. One member may choose while another m ringer score days, and Satur- choose Sunday, Wednesd: day as his choice score days. The contest will end on Labor Day and has been divided into three classes, those up to 15 handicap; those from 15 | to 19, inclusive, and those with handi- | caps over 19. Washington has just completed installation of a new handi- capping system, by which the players are placed on their honor to turn in their lowest score cards. HIS business of handicapping golfers at long distance is not all it is cracked up to Ralph_S. Shepherd. secretary of the Inter-De- partmental Golf League, thinks so at any rate. As golfers playing in the tournament, with handicaps ranging up to 16 and 18 came In to the score- board last week with cards of 82 and 83, Shepherd looked over his handicap | list and remarked: “What a razzing I'll Here are men with 16 and 18 handicap shooting scores which a 10 handicap man should shoot. Ah, here man.” And he looked over a score card which showed a total of 103, with an 18 handicap. The Inter-Depart- mental Golf League tourney is such an involved affalr, with prizes for this and that in three classes, and with in- dividual and team championships, that Shepherd is somewhat of a marvel even to get them all tabulated correctly.

Nine will qualify at the Pittsburgh Field Club, where Sandy Armour of Congressional will go. It is | an old axiom that where there are the | most_places to qualify, the smart pro should go there, for the struggle will not be quite so tight as where there are a fewer number of places. Summed up, the situation is this: 1,140 centestants will play in 20 dis- tricts for 112 places, and 38 exempt players will go direct to the scene of the championship at Minneapolis for the championship play beginning on July All the Walker Cup team members are exempt, and 29 profes- sionals, among them Tommy Armour, who finished in the first 30 and tied Winged Poot last year. The only for- eign entry is Cyril Tolley of England. ‘The entry list for the open is the larg- est_ever made. John 8.

OOKLYN, June 7.—The Robins stopped Chicago’s march through the National League today aftes nine straight victories by win; Clark, fourth Brooklyn pitcher, won his own game with a home run in the seventh inning with two on base. Rain, which delayed the start, con- tributed to the wildness of the pitchers. Chicago scored five runs in the first and third innings on only two hits, one of them Hack Wilson's eighteenth home run of the year. The Robins came back with three runs in the third and drove Guy Bush from the box with five more in the fourth, walks contributing heavily to the scoring.

BY ALLAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. ; ELMONT PARK, N. Y., June T+ Gallant Fox, with the bruised and bandaged Earl Sande in the saddle, answered the challenge to their greatness today by scoring a smashing triumph in the Belmont Stakes and capturing the three-year-old championship of the American turf. This was the big test for William | Woodward's big bay son of Sir Galla- | had III and Gallant Fox met it by run- ning the legs off Harry Payne Whit- ney’s famous Whichone, the favorite, in a finish that was startingly decisive in every respect. Made second choice to Whichone in spite of the Woodward combination’s great record, the Fox and Sande outsmarted and outran the star of the Whitney stable, to win by four good lengths in a common gallop. Only four horses ran in the rain that spoiled an_otherwise colorful scene. James Butler's Questionnaire was third, eight lengths back of the Fox, and W. J. Salmon's Swinfleld, fourth, 13 lengths behind the winner. 50,000 See Triumph. A crowd of nearly 50,000 spectators” saw Sande ride the Fox to the colt's fourth successive triumph as a three- year-old, completing a triple conquest of the three big classics—Preakness, Kentucky Derby and Belmont. In pree vious turf history only one other thor- oughbred, Sir Barton, in 1919, has reg- istered this great achievement. “It was easy and all I had to do was Jet the Fox run,” said Sande, afterward, smiling through the bruises and band- ages he wore as the result of an auto accident two days ago. In spite of the somewhat heavy going in the rain, the Pox established a new record for the Belmont Stakes by run- ning the mile and a half in 2 minutes 3125 seconds. This surpassed the time of 2:3225 set by Crusader in 1926, when the distance was increased and/ equalled the following year by Chance Shot. The time was short of Man O" War's track record of 2:28'5 for the , mile and a half. To make it all the more impressive, the Fox's victory added $66,000 to his owner’s winnings and shot his total beyond the $200,000 mark as a threat to the big money winners of the turf for all time. In four races this Spring alone, Gallant Fox has won $183,840 and the colt’s exact total is $203,730, wm:‘{fls small earnings as & 2-year-old Finish Is Easy. The Woodward colt acted as if in- sulted by the 8-to-5 odds, for he was impatient to be off, bolting from the barrier and galloping an eighth of a mile down the track before Sande was able to turn him. They were off &’ moment later, and the Fox was first to the rall, running at the flank of Swin- field. Questionnaire was third and Whichone fourth, and they held these positions in the run around the first turn. Galloping into the back stretch, Sande and the Fox were in full com- mand. Questionnaire moved up to e second place in the long run that saw the Fox experience no difficulty keeping the lead. Three or four times it seemed that Jockey A. Robertson, on Question- naire, sought to challenge the leader. ‘The crowd, expecting a move from ‘Whichone, as the Whitney horse con- tinued to run a disappointing fourth, finally let out a roar as the favorite responded to Jockey Sunny Workman's urging on the back turn. As the small field rounded into the home stretch, Whichone moved easily into second’ place_and it looked like a real race. ‘The Whitney colt was then a length and a half back of the Fox, but the fo mer's challenge was short-lived. The Pox bounded away from the favorite, | settling th> outcome in a few strides | and galloping past the grandstand in a | magnificent finish. | SBd e Sads BRAVES BEAT BUCS, 6-4, LED BY ZACHARY By the Associated Press.
