C, DECEMBER 1 1930—PART FIVE. % Clubs Here Lucky in Type of Pros and Aides : Baer Has Hands Full in Schaaf BAME'S PLEASURE HELPED BY THEM Plan for a Senior Tourney Here Next Year Meets With Enthusiasm. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. AVE you ever thought, Mr. Golf Club Member, on how smoothly the affairs of your golf shop are run and how much of the credit for that smooth operation and your handi- capping and even the arranging of matches for you and your fel-| low members should go to your club professional and his aides? Naturally every club professional is & competent man, with a thorough un- derstanding of golf and the golf shop. But his assistants are also competent, usually youngsters just getting ahead in the game and trying every minute to see that affairs function smoothly in the golf shop. ‘The clubs about the Capital are par- ticularly folrlumlv,‘e in l-xnvlmz:l a &ge group of golf professionals and an up- l.nd-pofllnlrs‘ group of assistants. Who, for instance, could replace D'Arcy Banagan at Columbia? Or Brick Wood at Washington? Or Archie Clark at Congressional? Or George Diffenbaugh at Indian Spring? Or Gene Larkin and Bill Hard at Chevy Chase? Banagan Is Valuable Fixture, Bana, is as much a fixture at Co- lumbia 'l‘lnmddle McLeod, the beloved mentor of the Columbia Club, who has held down that post for 18 years. Banagan even antedates his boss at Columbia, for the big red-hcad carried golf bags around the Columbia layout while Freddie McLeod was at St. Louls, fore he came to Columbia. How y “Red” is regarded at Columbia was evidenoed a few years back when the members of the club, wishing to show their appreciation of the services of Banagan, got together and gave him & purse of more than a thousand dollars. Banagan is not alone an assistant fessional. He is virtually the club dicapper, a friend to every member and the gent who arbitrates all disputes. And as for loyalty to Columbia, no man ever was more loyal to his country than Banagan is to the club he loves. On his tongue's tip is the handicap of every member of the club, and he can tell you almost to the stroke how each member of the club will play. little less than a golf marvel, and Fred ‘l*(:beod appreciates l)&\im, ‘tao, Oo.ll\;:l; 's golf would not move half so Jofiy ‘without Banagan. Knows Members Like Book. Over at Washington, Brick Wood pre- sides in the starter’s house as caddie- master, assistant pro and starter. Brick is another of those lads who knows the of his members like a book. ny matches come out on the first tee with some doubt in the minds of the members as & how the pairings should be mad- and what handicap should be they ask Wood. ett Tatth I Bricks Jndgment. implicit fait 'S Ju nf he will not be swayed by per- sonal and dislikes. And, like Banagan at Columbia, Wood is always on the lookout for ;]:\:e me'mbn 'ho‘ is without a game, looking for a into which he can be placed, making | luctions and otherwise acting between for the best interests f-‘.Z and the game. But Banagan and Wood are not alone. at Indian S George Dif- baugh has the same knowledge and the same ability at “mixing” that the others have. So has :‘rchle Clar:‘xlt Congressional, and so have Gene - kin and Bill Hardy at Chevy Chase. These boys make your golf and mine much more pleasant than it would oth- If you don’t believe it, take that personal touch is 1 you are not known. Walked over the property of the | Strathmeade Corporation the other day with Denton, the man from Michigan who is building the golf course, and found the country over which three nine hole courses are being bullt just sbout ideal for golf, and the holes | which Denton is laying out are thor-| oughly modern in every way. James A. White, who used to be an officer of the Bannockburn Club and now is con- nected with the Strathmeade outfit, as- sures us that our early ideas about Strathmeade were all wrong. Jimmy is authority for the statement that the golf club, when it is built, will be as rivate as any other club about Wash- &Cflh and &lt membership in it will be limited to those who own homes nearby. Eighteen of the 27 holes will be ready for play next Fall, all with watered fairways, and the entire 27 holes will be completed by 1933.

Three prizes will be presented to | the winning golfers each Sunday. In| addition prizes will be given each weel for the leading scorers of both sexes.

The Three of Conference Quintets In S. A. Section Change Tutors BY WILLIAM H. WRANEK, JR. HARLOTTESVILLE, Va, De- cember 13.—Three of the Southern Conference basket ball teams in the South Atlan- tic States will have new coaches this season. The other five will play under the same court tutors they had last ‘Winter. Gus Tebell, former head coach at North Carolina State, will direct the basket ball quint at Virginia. fl'fike); h will be as a coach in addition to serving as athletic director, t ia Polytechnic Institute !orAmerv% Charles “Dusty’ Rhodes, is to have charge of the court sport. He is the third new basket ball coach the Gobblers have had in as many years. Bob Warren, who last year succeeded Roy Randall, has gone back to his alma mater, Carolina State, where he is drilling some 54 first-year basketeers. Randall is now director of first-year athletics at Virginia. Coaches In Conference. between-season lull has come over atbletics 1n Virginia, Maryiand and North Carolina. Varsity foot ball equipment has been cleaned up and put away for next Fall's freshmen. Every one is looking ahead to indoor sports. Basket ball and boxing practice is well under way, and in some schools wrestlers, swimmers, track men and fencers are drilling. Fall term exam- inations are in progress where the school year is divided into quarters.

Florida should be heard rom this year and Georgia can always be depended on to be a contender. “The northern half of the conference will be blessed with many strong teams. North Carolina’s Tarheeis, who reigned supreme over the conference for several years, are due to come back.

A little overtime work in the Na- tional Capital e last week re- warded the crack King Pin combine, captained J. Willam Wood, with first place. e King Pinners’ most im- portant achievement was a three-game victory over the Fountain Hams. Seven wlumnnu two defeats was the King Pins' record. Starting off the week with two wins over Packwood Printing, the league leaders hauled down the Schroth - gation and finished by trimming Meyer Davis in two tilts, It remained for Lew Hollis and Con- rad Stultz and their lowly teammates to supply the fireworks for the week, however. Hollis smashed out a game of 169 the previous week and backed it up last week with a 157, which enabled Judd & Detweller to carry off h&- with a strong 654. Hollis' set was 382.

BY SPARROW McGANN. EW YORK, December 13.— Max Baer talks a rousing good fight. A few minutes with the former butcher- boy of Livermore, Calif., leads one to belleve that promotors are wasting their time looking around for a capable opponent for Max Schmeling. Yes, siree, the title is ; as good as back in this country if the youthful and vociferous Cali- fornian ever gets Herr Max in the ring with him. Bhades of Jack Sharkey's dest days! This fellow Baer has gAr- rulous gob backed clear off the boards and could spot the sallor several min- utes and put up a line of talk that would convince most callous skeptic in the world. Looks Like Comer. On form Baer has all the earmarks of & comer. That he is a puncher goes without saying. His record bears out the appellation, but when Max says he will stop Ernie Schaaf in just about five rounds in their it next Priday night, the fans look ce and want to be shown. Schaaf is just about ready to show up the best of them— and he has never been knocked off his feet. The list he has fought reads just like “who's who in the heavyweight di- vision.” His two slashing victories over Tommy Loughran, in the latter's home wg‘ are aec 'odbo sneezed at. under new managemen! This may work out for the best. John- most any time now and they paid plenty of money for Ernie's cnnzucc!. n:;:ckloyflu :wulade;;d a good judge of ting flesh an opinion of Schaaf is readily seen in the fact that he would never allow Sharkey to mingle with the youthful graduate the United States Navy. Bm!‘:llln- self thinks his investment in Schaaf will be & paying one. " Discipline Bothers Ernle. Baer has one important t in his favor. If Schaaf does not mend his Vi 'snovider s handicap. n shusgE 6 oulder a p g out with his ‘rival from. the - Pacifle Coast, chafed under the sharp discipline of Phil Schlossberg and often refused to follow instructions. This at times weighed against him and unless he reforms his ring career will be short. It Buckley can bring out the best in Schaaf, Baer is in for a tem ous evening next Priday and his debut in the mecca of fistdom will be an ef- fective silencer, Schaaf can really fight. Several of his poor showings were due to his mental attitude, for he smarted under discipline. tactics of his old manager, Schlossberg, put him where he is and his early successes swelled his head. Ernie would do well to forget his swell ideas and get down to brass tacks. Handles Self Well. Baer may be a boastful chap, with more than the ordinary amount of con- ce in his make-up, but there is no insaying that he is & puncher out of ordinary. Max needs but one solid wallop to fell an opJ»onmk He can finish any man he downs. Although Max has had but 27 fights he handles himself like a veteran. Temperament will decide his fight. Schaaf has it in him to beat-the West- erner, If he does, -then Stribling, Griffiths, Campolo and the rest had bet- ter look to their laurels. It is a golden opportunity for both boys. The ine door season has just started. A heavy- welght titular match is in prospect and Agoes | there will be much scrambling on the part of contenders. Opj les such as th's come on rare oct Baer and Schaaf realize this and be out trying for a spenking victory. Al i G. P. 0. BOWLERS GAIN Federal League Leaders Pick Up as Navy Team Idles. G.
