ANNAPOLIS, June 1.—Bitterly dis- appoinied at the defeat of ~their lacrosse team by the University of Maryland by the overwhelming score of 8 to 1, the naval pcople have nothing but praise for the work of the and there is some senti- | ment here that they should be given nother chance to qualify as th> rep- | entative team of this country against | the Canadians. Of course, Annapolis has many parti- sans of St. John's, who stake the claim that team on its 3-to-2 victory over Maryland, but others are pointing out John’s played neither Hopkins nor the Navy, and that Maryland's vic- tory over tie two should b2 considered. It is pointed out that St. John's defeated Maryland last year, and the latter won from Hopkins, but the John- nies were defaated when they met the Blue Jays.

We spoke of him pondering the fact that as a collegian h» could throw a base ball to a base without having to think. He eventually con- cluded the reason for this was that INGOLF WE LOOK AT FHE BALL— NOT THE. TARGET ol Wl 5-27 he could see the target all the while and that this caused his muscles to automatically respond in making the throw. But in attempting to apply this simple principle to golf he was stumped. In this game you did not look at th> target, the flag on the* grcen. On the contrary, you viewed the ball, glued your eyes to it. Some odd quirks in the play of champions occurred at this time that influenced his thought and action.

National Amateur for 1932 Goes to Baltimore, Is Report BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. ITH the Congressional Coun- try Club definitely out of the running, wcrd comes from New York that the moguls of the United States Golf As- cociation are getting ready to announce that the national amateur champlon- ship will be held at the Five Farms course of the Baltimore Country Club in September, 1932. Fhis is the course where the Professional Gclfers' Asso- clation championship was played in 1928 and the same layout where Harry G. Pitt of the Manor Club last Satur- y won his second major tournament victory of the season. Last year at Merion officials of the Baitimore Ccuntry Club submitied to the U. 8. G. A. their bid for the 1932 championship. ~ At that tme it was carefully explained to the powers that | |be in golf that in view of the com- ing Bicentennial celebration centering about the National Capital next year, Baltimore would be willin to cefer its bid in favcr of a Washington ciub if & club near the Capital wished the tour- ncy. Congressional was in & position to stage the championship and tor a time the Congressional Club gave seri- | ous thought to a bid for the event. But when the Congressional officials ob- tained all the facts in the case, includ- ing the ccst of bringing the layout up to championship caliber in the brief space of a year and a half, they decided to forget seeking the simon pure title chase for several years. Then Balti- more stepped in. Actively after 1932 championship, several influential members of the Baltimore Country | Club went to New York to attend the annual meeting of the United States Golf Associati'n and lay before the Championship Committee the facts on their golf course. OW word comes via the grapevine route from New York that plans are maturing for holding the 1932 championship over the Five Farms lay- out. Since the championship this year will be held in_the West—at the Bev- | | erly Country Club of Chicago—it I}xm‘ a naturally come East next_year. Washington club with a sufficiently good course wanted it badly it would be awarded t> such an organization, but none of the clubs about the Capital appear to be going after the champion- ship.

By the Associated Press. _AUTEUIL, France, June 1.—Five na- tions shared honors in the five divisions of play in the French hard-court ten- nis champlonships completed in Roland Garros Stadium yesterday. England captured the lion's share of the laurels, winning one title outright and sharing another with South Africa. The United States, France and Ger- many accounted for the other three.

For the past six years the Baltimore Country Club has been grooming the Five Farms course with a major cham- pionship in view. The course is a splen- did one, with sufficient length to make even the finest master of the wooden clubs knock 'em far and straight. It has a fairway watering system, which banishes the bugaboo of baked-out fairways. The membership of the club wants the tournament and Baltimore is squarely behind the move to get it| there. | Three years ago the Professional Golfers’ Association held its champion- ship tourney at Five Farms.
