c-2 NEW STARS SHINE IN WINTER MEETS Tourney Results Indicate Reign of Old Guard on Links Is Near End. BY W. R. McCALLUM. ROFESSIONAL golf is being turned topsy-turvy this Winter by a group of young stars rapidly ascending the stairs to the throne long occupied by the stars of other years—the Hagens, Sarazens and Armours. With the Florida season almost over and only one important tour- nament remaining to be played in the land of sunshine, the old guard will have to do tall lot of winning to overcome the lead piled up by Fred Morrison, Ralph Guldahl and Paul Runyan, the latter the winner of the Tampa open, a match play event similar to the P. G. A. championship. Sarazan won the New Orleans open, | Willie MacFarlane one of the other big | tournaments and Billy Burke has just won the West Coast open on his home course at Bellair. but in the main the winning of the bigger events in Cali- fornia, Texas and Florida has gone to the younger men, less well known than the so-called big shots of the game. Tommy Armour won a tourney at Miami early in the season, but did not g‘l,ay in the recent tournaments on the | est Coast, nor did he go on the Cali- fornia-Texas tour. Morrison Big Winner. Fred Morrison of Los Angeles tops the money winners of the Winter tour with | the big lump of $5,000, which he won at Agua Caliente, and the few dollars he picked up in other tourneys on the Pacific Coast. Sarazen Is not far back, for he won the New Orleans event. But Clarence Clark of New Jersey won the ‘Texas open and Runyan won at Tampae, while Sarazen, Hagen and the other accepted stars trailed. There remains on the Florida schedule only the Miami- Biltmore tourney with total prize money of $10,000, to be played a week hence, and it is quite likely that one of the fast-stepping youngsters will move up to the top in that event. The pros have a saying that golf . games tempered on the Winter tour are more than likely to figure extensively in the larger events held in the North during the Summer. It 1s true that nearly all the winning pros started winning in the South betore they came North to win major championships. Sarazen started winning Southern tourneys back in 1921, before he won the national open in 1932. Tommy Armour turned pro in 1924 and was the second money winner on the South- ern jaunt that Winter, following up with ‘a victory in the national open of 1927. Horton Smith, the biggest sen- sation of the Winter season of 1929- 1930, has not yet won a national crown, but his success in the South forecasts for him a national op2en not so far | away.

Hagen, the old master, is just as good as ever before from tee to green, but his putting touch has not come back. THE public courses will not be closed this year for repairs and rehabili- -tation. So open has been the Win- | ter that the courses have been in capital | shape all during the past three months | and so those in charge of the layouts at Eest Potomac Park and Rock Creek Park have decided not to close the courses for repairs. For many Winters the two public courses have been closed during most of February and early March to permit workmen to resod tees, reface the bunkers and generally do the cleaning-up work that is necessary on layouts which have such heavy play and suffer from a Winter of ordinary severity. But this year there has been no snow, and virtually no freezing weather, and the courses in consequence have not suffered &t all. The necessary repairs can be made while the courses are open and the golfers will not be de- prived of their chance for play. For many Winters, while the larger courses were closed. the only layout available for play was the short course in West Potomac Park. The persistent Jack McCarron, who probably plays golf as often as any amateur around the Capital, has at last arrived at his golfing dream. Just a few days ago McCarron played the Con- gressional Country Club course in 75 strokes—his lowest score to date and a score only 2 above par—and now he hopes the improvement in his gamé will remain through the year.

In this way it would go back from the ball on a straight line, and mer ‘would have to force his left down and his right one up in a motion which would amount to contortion. It is not conceivable that a could swing a club in this way and develop any ef- fective power. ‘When the club face opens in what we have come fo re orthodox swing, in the top posit does n, the TOMORROW . | | | THE WORD - DAWNS IN COLLAR MAKING | TOMORROW wATCH FOR THE NEW P.].

BY J. P. ALLEN, EW YORK, March 2.—More than once in the past Sarah Palfrey has been talked of as the “Helen Wills of the Eastern lawn tennis courts.” There is good reason for such an opinion. She is the out- standing performer of five sisters, almost enough to make a real tournament, who are all proficient with the racket. To say that Miss Sarah Palfrey has made a truly sensational beginning this season s only doing her justice. It is no small feat to conquer Mrs. Eileen Bennett Whittingstall and Betty Nut- hall on successive days, Likewise to do it in the Bermuda tournament adds to the glory. All the more s0 when one considers that they are world-ranking players. The slender, demure American girl mastered Mrs. Whittingstall, who stood as finalist to Mrs. Helen Wills Moody for the United States title at Forest Hills last season, 6—2, 7—5. That was in the semi-final. In the trophy match Miss Palfrey outhit and outgeneraled the fa- mous Betty Nuthall, pride of the British courtS, 6—4, 5—7, 6—2. Everybody knows what ‘a fighter the indomitable Betty is when she has leveled the set score. It all proves that the American girl has all her big guns going this year. This is most encouraging, for it prac- tically assures Miss Palfrey a place on the American Wightman Cup team that will go against the British field at Wimbledon this season. That in itself 3ives heart to those who believe that th: players of this Nation are to face e riffic battles in order to retain holding of the massive vase of No one, not even the with whom the writer ta times, quite knows the explanation to why her game went into the dol- drums last season. It was by no means her best year, although she gained a national ranking of No. 7, which was one above the position accorded her for her 1930 play. ranking was at No. 4 for 1929, when | of the previous vear. It may be recalled that because of | her uncertain early play last season, |this girl wonder was not included | the original nominations for the Wight {man Cup team. Then Mrs. Marion | Zinderstein Jessup withdrew. This | opened the way for Miss Palfrey to get into action.
