SPORYS, THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, Wrmw : U. S. Davis Cup Team Hard fo Pick INTERLACHEN LINKS STUDIED BY CHAMP Bob Pays Little Attention to Score as He Shoots a Pair of 72’s. By the Associated Press. INNEAPOLIS, Bobby Jones himself to Interlachen yesterday and demon- strated he could produce par golf, | or better, as his defense for the| national open championship. July T.— introduced ‘The thirty-fourth annual gath-, ering of the professionals and the | amateurs opens Thursday, but| more than half of the 150 en-| trants were already here for ac- climating rounds. The Atlanta amateur studied Inter- lachen’s difficulties on two rounds Sun- day and produced a par 72 on each.| Bobby was not concerned with scores, however, but with a study of the cuurse'si character and contours. ‘The that he was glad to confirm his own belief that “I am in good shape for an- other meet, ready to make the best de- fense I can.” He said he was convinced that the course holds plenty of tourna- ment tribulations. Three others also had stepped out from among their fellows today by scoring par 72s Sunday during one trip over the links. Johnny Farrell, who de- feated Jones in a 36-hole play-off at Olympia Filelds in 1928, turned the trick in his first round. Densmore Shute, Columbus, and Jack Collins, Los Angeles, playing with him, kept pace. But most of the entries practicing are running into 76s and higher. Walter Hagen, twice open champlon, made his course debut with a 74, which he went out to better today, along with Horton Smith and George Von Elm, lm;&eur winner in 1926, who scored 75 eac] Fred Morrison, Los Angeles: Sonny Rouse, Chicago, and Ray Mangrum, Dallas, each scored one above par in their first practice round. defending champion observed | For the first time in the history of golf the national tournament will be described play-by-play next Saturday. Ted Husing, Columbia Broadcasting Sys- tem announcer, will use a portable knapsack transmitter, which will enable him to give an eye-witness report of the final 18 holes. The set weighs 30 pounds. Before dnflmm descends on the course today nearly half of the entries for the meet will have completed initial rounds, with the whole force of 150 pllyers expected to play over it Tuesday and Wednesday. Harrison (Jimmy) Johnston, St. Paul, United States ama- teur champion, has had trouble ‘making his clubs behave consistently since re- turning from the Walker Cup trip to the British Isles, but has sensed im- provement the last few days. Hartig Scores Unprecedented Eagle 3 on 540-Yard Hole OT since the lay-out of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club was constructed nearly two years ago has an eagle been made on that tortuous thirteenth hole until yesterday, when Frank Hartig, the club professional, looped & No. 3 iron third shot into the cup for the first 3 to be made on the 540-yard affair. Because of its length and the trees that hem in the fairway on both sides, the thirteenth is con- sidered the most difficult par on the course of the service club, but Hartig made it look easy as he smashed out a good drive, followed it with a fine brassie shot and then knocked that ball in the hole for the eagle. ‘The shot that holed out was played from a spot 125 yards away from the green, and the ball took one bounce and ended in the cup. It may be that today, when the pro- fessionals of this sector of the country gather at the service club to play in their scheduled pro-pro best ball match, some one will put together two lusty ‘wallops and reach the green in 2, but 1t is far more likely that Hartig's eagle will the only one recorded on this hole for quite some time. The 36-hole best ball affair, scheduled last Spring by the Middle Atlantic Professional Golfers’ Association, has been reduced to 36 holes, and is the first tourney of the association to be played over the course of the service club. Dave Thomson, the popular little professional of the Washington Golf end Country Club, picked up Tommy ‘Webb's driver as the latter held it in his hands just before he attempted to play over the trees for the green at the seventeenth hole, and remarked: “Tom- my, I see you are using a Chinese driver.” “How's that” Tommy said. “One Long Wham,” Dave replied. Dolph Elmore came into the club | house at Washington yesterday, his face | Co: covered with a broad grin, remarking something about a bargain that turned out to be no bargain. His merriment caused some questions and it finally | // developed that Elmore, O. C. Murray, ©O. L. Veerhoff and A. Bolling Galt were all set to play from the first tee. The other three thought Galt was f.he wuk- est of the four and agreed coin to see who would play Vh Gl]t A further stipulation was that which- ever man got Galt for a partner would get 1 up on each nine. Elmore drew Galt afd the latter, perhaps a bit nettled because his game was held in such small esteem, went out and shot himself a 77, bringing home all the bacon and causing the merriment that Elmore showed and that Veerhoff and Murray couldn’t see. ‘That 77 enabled Galt to tie for first lace in the three-day tourney held at ashington with L. D. Underwood. The tourney was played over three days with & minimum of two rounds to be f)h)ed and the average of all rounds, ess handicap, to count. Galt and Underwood tied for first place with average of 70. Galt played with & handicap of 13 strokes, while Under- wood had 10 strokes. E. P. Brooke had an average of 77 and a handicap of 6 and was in third place with a net average of 71. In the second division M. J.

McClel- land, his partner in the two-man con- test, went out and played the best ball of two other gents, and won, thereby showing himself to be a game guy. Yesterday, after Green had recovered | from his injuries, McClelland and Green | went out and_ trounced G. F. Wesley and Fred W. Rade in the final round by 3 and 2.

DES MOINES, Towa, July 7.—A bril- liant fleld of 60 outstanding Midwest tennis players today laid plans for wresting from Wray Brown, versatile St. Louis star, the Missouri Valley men’s singles championship. Harris Coggeshall, with his scintillat- ing Western championship newly won as a background, should prove to be Brown’s foremost foe in the play be- ginning today. Other stumbling blocks in Brown’s path are Bruce Barnes of Austin, Tex.; Junior Boehmer, Carl Hodge and Teddy Eggman of St. Louis. William Flynn, red-head from Kansas City, tops the seeded list among the juniors, with Jay Cohn, national boys title holder, of Santa Monica, Calif., sec- ond, Frankie Parker of Milwaukee third, and Jack Lynch of Taft, Calif, seeded fourth. Catherine Wolf, 17-year-old miss from Indianapolis, won the woman's singles from Clara Louise Zinke of Cincinnati, present number one Western woman, by 3—6, 6—4, 6—1. The victory was Miss Wolf’s third straight on Chicago courts, the city and Illinois State titles having previously fallen to her racket. Paired with Mrs. Barbara Duffy of Cleveland, Miss Wolf won the women's doubles from Miss Zinke and Ruth Oex- man, the defending champions, 6—4, 2—6, 6—1.

MUCH MAY DEPEND ON CONTEST TODAY Wimbledon Victory for Lott| and Doeg Would Cause Revision of Plans. By the Associated Press. IMBLEDON, England, July 7—An all-American final in men’s doubles closes the 1930 British tennis championships today. Assuring the United States of its fourth title in the current championships, the young Davis Cup combination of John Van Ryn of East Orange, N. J., and Wilmer Allison of Fort Worth, Tex., defend their Wimbledon doubles crown against the young United States champions, George Lott of Chicago and John Doeg of Santa Monica, Calif. Expert observers were of the opinion that more than Wimbledon honors hinged upon the result of the match, They thought it would go far toward determining which of the two teams would be given the honor of playing the doubles in the Davis Cup challenge round against France, granting that the Americans get that far. Italy and Japan, European zone finalists, will meet on Thursday, Friday and Saturday with the survivor, battling the United States for the right to challenge France. May Jumble Cup Plans. Big Bill Tilden's dramatic victory in singles here on Saturday when he beat Allison in straight sets, and Allison’s magnificent play throughout the tourna- ment, already have complicated Amer- ica’s Davis Cup plans. Now it would need only a victory for Lott and Doeg over Van Ryn and Allison to cause all previous plans to be thrown overboard. Play in American zone Davis Cup com- petition indicated that Lott and Doeg would play doubles and Allison and Van Ryn singles.
