This will be the last national open in which the high-speed ball will be used and if Chick Evans’ record 286 at Mini- kahda is to be bettered this must be the year. SHAMROCK IS DEFEATED THIRD TIME IN TRIALS| 'LASGOW, Scotland, June 28.— Sh?mmck V, America’s Cup challenger, was beaten yesterday for the third time since her launching last month, when Lulworth slipped first over the line in the race which opened the Clyde regatta | of the Mudhook Yacht Club.

The ace was made on the fourth hole of course B at Rock Creek Park, a hole of about 175 yards. Bill is an employe of the Bureau of Standards, and as such is a member of the “Oily Boids” a group of men who get out early in the morning, before most of Washington is awake, and smack a golf ball around among the hills and valleys at Rock Creek. But that hole in one was not the only good job Bill did day before yesterday. The ace helped him to negotiate that tortuous Rock Creek course in 71. The brothers McKee and H. L. Swindell, who were piaying with Pendergast, attested the ace and the 71. Bill's ace was his first in a good many years. LTHOUGH the Henry-Williams Cup event will not be concluded for several days, the golfers of the Bannockburn Club are all set to start another competition, that for the Tom Moore Cup, which is a 72-hole event, to be played in four medal rounds be- | tween July 5 and July 27, both dates inclusive. Each 18-hole round may be played at the convenience of the com- petitor at any time between those dates, | but the full round must be played with- | out interruption. | Before beginning the round the com- | petitor must announce to the profes- sional or a member of the golf comm:! tee that he is beginning a round for the Tom Moore Cup. Failure to com- plete the round will result in disquali- fication, Players will not make deduc- | tions of handicaps from gross scores, as that will be done by the committee. All putts must be holed out under penalty of automatic disqualification. United States Golf Association rules will gov- ern the play and a replica of the cup will be awarded the winner. ‘Two hard-fought matches have been concluded in the competition for the Tribal Bowl among members of the In- |dian Spring Golf Club. J. Willlam Harvey, the long-hitting gent whose game has improved so much this year, went to the twentieth hole to beat Elliott Spicer, sinking a 4-foot putt for a birdie 3 on the twentieth hole to win the match, and Dr. L.

That's the advice of mest pros. It's a sure cure for slicing, as Walter Hagen will tell you. It's the way Helen Hicks drives, the way every sound golfer must drive. And it'’s also a sure way of hooking if you don't watch out. Bobby Jones will tell you that's what makes him hook. But as fcw of us are golfers like Jones or Hicks and as most of us slice, the big problem for us is to LINE 10 HOLE, CLUB GOE& THROUGH BALL LIKE THIS hit from inside out, as shown in the illustration. After we get so gcod at it that we begin hooking then we can take up the matter of correcting the nhcok. What makes one hit from outside in? In short, what makes us slice?

Back in 1924, when he reported to the San Antonio club, he was so weakened by the hot weather that he had to be sent back to Terre Haute. Last year his mammoth tummy was beset with trouble and he withered away to a mere 215 pounds. He was able to take part in only six games for dear old Uncle Robbie in 1929, winning one and losing two. So you can easily see that his return to form this season has brought joy to many a home in Flatbush. Of course, it is true that the re- juvenation of that wonderful short- stop, Glenn Wright, has been the spark which has inspired the Dodgers to go along at top speed, but it must be admitted, too, that the good work being done by this 235- pound southpaw is having a lot to do with the city across the bridge be- coming pennant-conscious again. an- There will be no entry players will be expected to pay the green fce of $1.

HAIRMAN VEERHOFF of the sub- committee on tournament of the golf committee of the Washington Golf and Country Club reached down in his bag of tricks today and drew forth not a rabbit, but a tricky event in which the members of the Virginia organiza- tion are competing this afternoon. The full handicap of the players will apply, and 1 point will be awarded for a par, 4 points for a birdle, 8 points for an eagle and. 20 points for a cuckoo and a humming bird.

Stewart and V. Calvert Dickey are frequent companions on the golf course at Washington, and Dickey and Stewart govern their shots a good deal on what their partner has done. Yesterday they were playing the fif- teenth hole, and Stewart took some sort | of iron club from a lie on the hillside just under the green, only a few yards | from where Dickey's ball lay. He made | a successful shot, which reached the green, and Dickey asked, “What did you use, Charles?" Stewart kept quiet, and the question was repeated. Again Stewart remained mum. So Dickey took a mashie niblick and made a good shot. When they had holed out, Stewart said, “Calvert, what was the idea of asking all those ques- tions? Don't you know I played a fool- ish club? T had a bad lie, and instead of pitching that ball I played a midiron shot and ran it up. If I had told you what I used I would have misled you.” RS. W. S. PORTER was the winner of the weekly tourney at the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club, registering a card of ii8 —24—94. The second flight winner was Mrs. William Grimes, who shot nine holes in 58, with a 20 handicap, to score a net 38. Mrs. Lewis Coxe was second with 54--11—43. Next Thursday a one-ball foursome will be played. 'HE final match in the two-man toufney at the Manor Club is scheduled to be played tomorrow with Winship I. Green and E. M. Mc- Clelland playing G.

Claggett, enthusiastic golfer of the Washington Golf and Country Club, is back of a movement to get a number of players of his club to put up a small amount of money for a tourney, the proceeds of which were to go to the pot for.Joe Judge, first baseman of the Washington base ball club. Claggett held that while many golfers wanted to play golf this afternoon, they also wanted to do their bit for Judge. L'XIE LINKSMAN'S 62 IS NINE UNDER PAR By the Associated Press. ASHEVILLE, N.

By Carrol OW many of us recall our old school geographies and their widely assorted pictures of places and scenes from all over the globe? If you can recall them at all you will surely recall the picture of the crowded Yangtze, covered with Jjunks, sampans, houseboats and what- not and the caption reading, “The Chi- nese have lived for centuries aboard boats on the Yangtze” So there's really nothing new about this thing of living aboard, except that maay have not discovered it and when they do, they, like most of the human race, like to consider that what they have found is new, unique and interesting. But now that our advertisers are be- | and live on it” and the roads being crowded as they are, we may already see the return to the water—aye, the signs are in the sky. Sooner or later our broad rivers and bay will soon, like the Yangtze, contain their quotas of residents aboard. It's really a lot of fun. Of course, there are inconveniences. And if one is a sleep walker he need read no fur- ther. And if one is the type of chap who objects to a bit of exertion now and then and likes everything done for him, why, of course, living aboard is out of the question. But for the fellow whose delight is to tinker, who loves the open air and isn't scared of drafts and & bit of paint in his hair now and then and in whose veins flows the blood of adventure-seeking ancestors, for that fellow, living aboard is just right. And if he be so fortunate to possess a wife mholls of the same mind, the thing is leal. Also Has Advantages. ‘We mentioned inconveniences. We failed to mention advantages. There's | Iots of them. First, take the matter of keeping house. Floors are small and rarely dusty. Refuse disposal is easy— overboard.

Unwelcome guests may easily be avoided by merely moving one's anchorage for the night, and if one wishes o retire early he may do so without fear of drop-in callers and phoned invitations. ‘Then in the hot Summer months the evenings will be found to be cooler on the water and a refreshing swim is at one's backdoor, so to speak. Here, and here alone, may the beauties of sunset and full moon be enjoyed in their en- tirety and here on quiet nights is the only place in the world where one's carpet and ceiling both may be studded with stars. May we recommend, too, that the fellow with jaded appetite, the tonic taker, the fellow who says. “I don't know what's the matter with me, no ep!"—all these may profit greatly b living aboard, though we warn thent that grocery bills will be higher once old man river gets in his dirty work. The sun-lamp salesman will have to change over to bathing suits or marine equipment and no more will the ques- tion arise, “Where shall we go for the evening?”—for living aboard means staying aboard and really enjoying one’s self without seeking. We started this column with a ques- tion. We must ask another. Or rather copy & few from those so frequent ads. Are you lonesome? Do you have diffi- culty in making friends? Are you a social failure?

Let the credit and honor fall where due, widowed By FRANK [E most interesting coming chess event of the year is the inter- national team match of five players to a team, to take place At Hamburg July 12 to 27. The entry list has closed. There are 20 entries, {ncluding teams from Austria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, —Denmark, England, Finland, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Rumania, Sweden .and the United States. The United States team will be headed by fits champion, Frank J. Marshall. Great Britain will be rep- resented by four members of the Lon- don team which played Washington recently, and Mir Sultan Khan, who won the championship of Great Britain last year. While Khan's home is in the East, it would not be surprising to see him on the British team should there be another London-Washington match. Karl Ahues, champion of Germany, will head the team from that country. ‘There are only 14 play days in the tournament, and, while there are 20 entries, each team will meet only i4 rival teams. The pairings will be based upon what is known as the Swiss tem. This system starts out by brin: ing together winning teams, and thers after teams having the highest scores among those that have not come together, and is intended to be equita- ble to all concerned, and to eliminate the element of luck in the drawing as much as possible.
