SPORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHIN{ YEDAY. ‘SEPTEMBER 9, 1931 SPORTS. m'&lj Crown P;o;erly Adjusted to His Head STILL SOMEWHAT | DIZZY, HE ADMITS Intends to Be at Baltimore Next Year, Hopes to Play on Cup Team Again. | BY FRAN OUIMET, United States Amateur Gol Champion. | OSTON, September 9.— At the moment I am in the most confused state of mind imaginable, and as to what my golfing plans are for the future I cannot say. All I know is I intend to play as often as time and business will permit. kor the most part, + suppose I will. induige in many games with | my friends between now and tne cold weatner, afier wnich 1 will longingly wait tor the Spring ana tne new season. Dircctly after winning the amateur championship at Beveriy 1 returnea to Boston ana tacre was greeied by triends with a reception that nas left me dizzy and dazed and about all I can say is tius: It will e necessary for the {og to lifu before 1 can see things in a clear light and muake more definite plans. Of one thing I am certa. I expect to be back at Baltimore for next year's national amateur competition and I have no ntention of reuring trom com- petitive golf. To be sure my competitive play has amounted to very little in the past several years due to the fact that business_occupics most of my time, .and though I do not intend to neglect my business, I am now looking torward to next year's championship. N 1932 the Walker Cup matches will be played in this country and I am hopetul 1 will be chosen to represent the United States in this great event Apropos of the Walker Cup matches, I was introduced to Jack Westland the evening before our final round. As we shook nands, Jack said: “Do you think I have a chance to be selected on' next years Walker Cup team?” 1 told him I felt there was no doubt but that he would be chosen, and added that I was fighting like everything to stay on the team. After all, I have played in every Walker Cup match ana have had such a wonderful time that I hate to think of the time when, of course, I will be crowded off by the coming generations. | N many ways the championship just | conciud>d was the most interesting | I have ever played in. The sectional round was directly respon- | or so many newcomers, and lads who might not have been willing to go to Chicigo and take their chances in the older qualifying round methods fourd the n°w system gave them a better opportunity to show their wares, first at home and later at Beverly These youngsters completely domi- | nated the medal rounds. When such well established stars as Johnston, Mar- ston, Perkins, Evans and Tolley, to name but a few, cannot survive a medal test at 36 holes it is a strange situation. At the end of the first match play rounds the toll exacted by the young- sters was terrible. Think of Voigt, Goodman and Leh- | man being kicked out in the very first | round. 1 every case a youngster who | had never been outside of his own local district was responsible. As I view the future I think this same thing is gomg to continue. Why, I actually heard a lad in *he locker room | tell a fricnd he was extremely confident | he would win his match against a play- | er who had been through tae mill many times, and tne funny part about the whole thing was the youngster did come | througn | Then the 1931 crop of younger golf- ers seems o have beiter poise than those of other years. I doubt if another | contestant had more “kids" thrown at him than did I, myself. Some need a bit more seasoning in the crucible of | competition. Others_already are set. Johnny Shields and Billy Howell seem Teady now As the picture appears to me, I think now that Bobby Jones is definitely out for all time. These contests, such as the national amateur, will be anybody They will be wide-open affairs. Ex- | nce will mean a lot, but it will be the determining factor. HE one great satisfaction I got out | of winning is due to the fact that I | waited 17 years to do something I made up my mind could be done. When in 1914 it was my good fortune to win this same title, I wanted to re- peat. Year after year the door was slammed in my face just about the mo- ment it seemed as though 1 might get somewhere. I never gave up trying. Tam happy to have succceded and I expect to turn up next year to defend my title. (Copyright, 1931, by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc.)

To avoid pressure, looking up, and all the distracting and disturb- ing faults that cause a golf ball to do everything except what we ac- tually wish to do, relaxation and comfort are necessary when driving. 1 was tremendously impressed with Billy Burke's game through- out the open championship at In- verness. Billy was never taut. On the contrary he was always relaxed on the tee, through the fairway and and upon the green. There was never a semblance of strain, or of a desire to kill the ball.

OME time ago a gent with an eye for figures wrote a yarn called “Even Threes.” It wasa fanciful | tale of golf and golfers in which | the hero shot a flock of holes in even 35 and won the championship and ihe gal. But the tale was not as fanci- ful as it might seem, for it has been done right here in our midst, with, Jimmy Herrman, the long hitter of the Washington Golf and Country Club, and Dr. Thomas D.
