BOYS AND lUNIURS STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE By WALTER R. McCALLUM: BOWL TOMORROW - Entry of Former Is Heavier. Qualification Tests on | Various Drives. ‘IY FRANCIS E. STAN. OY bowlers will greatly out- number the junior class duck- pinners when the first block of the National Boy and Junior ‘Tournament opens here tomorrow | afternoon on local drives. This is the report submitted by virtually every alley manager, from downtown em- poriums to the suburbs. On the other hand, George Isemann, who returned from Baltimore yester- day, reports that in the Oriole city, juniors outnumber the boy bowlers. George, as well as the alley man- agers, puzzled over this reversal in the nnrby cities, but is not worried. Entries, both in Washington and Balti- more, indicate a large number in both , with records to fall ere the bowlers finish. ‘While the number of entry blanks returned has been gratifying, not half n out has come back signed, and ose which have been returned were mostly boy bowlers. “Probably the juniors are holding out until the last minute,” was George Ise- mann’s explanation. Tomorrow the future Campbells, ‘Wolstenholmes, Rosenbergs and Von nveln roll off the first three games, the boys class, which is composed of rs who are not yet 16 years shooting in the afternoon at 3 oelock, and the juniors not yet 19 years old bowling at 7:30 o'clock in the evening. ‘The following sctuxd.ny November 22, the last three be rolled and pins L mh nuey winner then meets on the alleys dra the most entries to lucidnw m‘ who advances Lawrence and Randolph Pugh, brothers, are being banked on by Henry at Bethesda, who may get the city eliminations at his alley.

The Board of Governors of the Chevy Chase Club have given their consent to Barnett's acceptance of the post. He will be back in Washington shortly after April 1. He expects to leave the Capital about November 28. Gene Larkin, assistant to Barnett, who held down the professional berth at the Lake Wales, Fla., Club last Win- ter, will again have that post and will leave for Florida shortly after Christ- mas. Elwood Poore, one of Barnett's former assistants, who has been hold- ing down the professional berth at the Rolling Green Club of Pennsylvania, will handle the Chevy Chase golf shop during the Winter in_the absence of Barnett and Larkin. Bill Hardy, Bar- nett’s clubmaker, and Dan Burton, the ex-caddie who has been playing so well this year, will remain in the shop during the Winter. SEARS ROEBUCK anb Co. Barnett and Larkin, between them, held during most of the past year the two biggest professional titles in this section. Barnett held, and still holds, the professional match-play title, while Larkin held the Maryland State open. He was unable to defend his title a few weeks ago because of an injured wrist. ‘The professional match-play champion- ship has not been played this year, and probably will not be played, which leaves Barnett still the champion. Bar- nett came to the Chevy Chase Club in 1923, succeeding Orrin A. Terry in the professional berth. Barnett has been quite successful as a playing profes- sional, and is as strong a golfer as any man in the Middle Atlantic section. For three rounds he led in the recent Midatlantic open. only to slump on the last round and finish far down the list in the tourney won by Gene Sarazen. Sandy Armour is hurs the way his brother Tommy is hitting the golf ball. “He is knocking that ball so far and so straight,” Sandy said. “that I don't see how it is possible for him to score over 72 on any golf course. He is longer than ever from the tee and you know Tommy never was & short” hitter. And he hasn’t lost & bit of that accuracy with the iron clubs. | Billy Burke nosed him out at Pine- hurst by finishing 2, 3, 3, 4 on holes which are par 3, 5, 3, 4. He picked up five shots on Tom at the last 3 holes. Tom knocked the ball so far at the 18th ITEE SAT!

He didn’t know that 147 would get him in & tie, and that putt cost him second money.” Weather conditions at Pinehurst must have been bad. Sandy says the final day of the mid-South toumn-[ ment was one of the worst he ever| has seen. The course, you know, | stretches out to 6,900 yards, and the fairways were covered with water, so the bell did not roll far. Sandy says the U. S. G. A. may be thinking of barring the sand wedge, |t but judging from its popularity among | r the pros, the much-discussed club for use in the sand, has come to stay. Orig- inally the sand wedge was put out by only one company and this Detroit out- | | it reaped a harvest with the carly sale | {of the club, priced at the preposterous | figure of $12 per copy. But several | makers have begun manufacturing the club, along much the same principle, | and at least four manufacturers now‘ sell it. The sand wedge first came into | prominence at the amateur champion- | ship at Merion, where many of the com- petitors carried one in their bags. At that time the United States Golf Association had no pronouncement to make regarding the club, except that they were watching it, and its results, although one official said the committee on implements might bar the club on the ground that purchase of a sand wedge was equivalent to purchase of a golf stroke. It is undoubtedly true that the club is the finest thing ever in- vented for getting out of sand. It prac- tically insures the ball getting out of sand, no matter how deeply it may be buried, but there has been a question whether the U. 8. G. A. will legislate against it Most of the professionals at Pinehurst carried sand wedges in their bags, Armour said, and played them when- ever the ball lay deep In the sand. So did the amateurs at Merion. Meanwhile the price does not scem to have deter- red many amateurs from buying the | club, even though $12 does seem like R\ preposterous price to pay for an article | that can be turned out for about $2.50.
