Eastman, Needed in 800, Sacrificed in 400 Feud. Six Stars Stand Out. BY ALAN GOULD, Assocated Press Sports Editor. LO ALTO, Calif,, July 18.— The main battle now looms ahead for the American Olympic track and fleld team, emerging today with a few ear aches and sore muscles after the record-smashing final tryouts and the intersectional sharp- shooting along the sidelines. Despite the utter abandon with which Uncle Sam’s best athletes performed, cracking open four world records, equaling two others and surpassing the best Olympic records in 10 out of 18 final events, Head Coach Lawson Rob- ertson and his assistants expressed the belief they will be hard-pressed in the international competition at Los Ange- les. . AID Robertson: “This team seems stronger than four years ago in the short-distance | races and high hurdles. We have some vaulters and jumpers, but all- 1d balence is lacking. We will be sed in ell the distance races and may not do as well in the field events as we did at Amsterdam. The pole 1t, high jump, discus and probably the shotput offer our best prespects of vietory outside the track, where we may be fortunate to win as many as three or four events.” The standouts among the 68 athletes who have gained places on the track and field squad include: 1. Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette University Negro sprinter, who led nome his Olympic mates, Eddie Tolan and George Simpson. at both 100 and 200 meters, as the coast Bob Kelsel, Frank Wykoff iec Dyer, were eliminated and zated to the 400-meter relay along with Emmett Toppino, m star. 2.

A Summer tourney was tried one year, but it did not prove popular. Continuous ticket tourneys, with prizes purchased from the sale of tickets at 1 cent each, used to be in vogue and were well patronized. How- ever, they involved a great deal of work and distributing and counting the tickets, and 1 know of no club now using this form of attraction. In New York City and other places rapid tran- sit, tournaments, 10 seconds to & move. with prizes to the winners, are held regularly once a week and are very 1 opular. p};m old Washington Chess Club played several matches by correspond- ence, which continued throughout the year, and provided excitement for the Summer months. Thirty-six years ago 2 match was played Wwith the Rich- mond (Va.) Chess Club, which resulted in a draw, two games being won by each side. In one of these games, con- ducted on behalf of Washington by Capt. Patrick O'Farrell, a mate was announced in 18 moves, and Capt. O'Farrell demonstrated it by analysis. Then followed a correspondence match of two games with the famous Brooklyn Chess Club, which the local club wen by the score of 1'2 to . A match was played with the North- west Chess Club of Philadelphia and another one with the Biddeford (Me.) Chess Club, both of which were won by Washington. - y’I‘he Norg;‘olk (Va.)

In the third game, after 46 moves had been made, Fine, who was & pawn down, claimed a draw because the same position had occurred twice before with the same player to move, The referees, H. M. Phillips and Her- man Helms, upheld Fine's claim under a provision of the International Chess Such a rule where one of the parties is ahead in material 1s of doubt- ful merit.

The critics and Brooklyn selected this move. The retreat of the queen to K2 was at once compelled by Washington; the capture of QKtP was out of the question.

The A. A.

By the Associated Press. OUISVILLE, Ky, July 18—With the entry list swelled by last- minute approval of added start- ers by the Tournament Com- mittee, at least 215 golfers will start in the United States public links golf tournament which opens here tomor- row. A total of 204 had entered when the books were formally closed July 5, but the committee has approved the cre- dentials of 11 additional hopefuls from varjous cities and it is possible even more will be entered before the first twosome tees off early tomorrow morn- ing on the par of 72 Shawnee course overlooking the Ohio River. It is likely that many of the golfers will have to play in threesomes during the 36 holes of qualifying play Tues- day and Wednesday, so that the rounds may be completed before nightfall. The remainder of the week will be given over to match play between the 32 low- score qualifiers. | Charles Ferrera, San Francisco, is | the defending individual champion and | the San Prancisco team holds the city | title, awarded to the team with the lowest score in the qualifying rounds. | Virginia Pope, 17, Rated Best Of D. C. Woman Links Hopes BY W. R. McCALLUM. HE improvement of young Vir- ginia Pope, the little Kenwood miss who still is in her 'teens. and who recently won the junior women’s champlonship of Washington, has done more than any other single factor in women's golf to spur on the younger feminine players of the city to achieve success at golf. Previous to this year Miss Pope, who is the daugh- ter of George S. Pope, played “girlish golf,” which means that one day she might be around any golf course in 86 or s0, and then shoot up to 100 on the new round. There was no consistency to her game. But this year she has be- come much more consistent than ever before, and probably today she is very nearly as good & golfer as we have around Washington. A little more practice and a little more experience and she will be up there at the top. | Virginia Williams of Congressional | and Virginia Pope have come along at the same time. Miss Williams has played in many more tournaments than has her younger namesake, but her game has not shown the consistency of Miss Pope's this year. Miss Pope has played, in past seasons, a good deal of golf with John C. Shorey, one of the best amateurs around Washington, and naturally has picked up from this lad a good many wrinkles about hitting a golf ball. MR.S. J. MARVIN HAYNES of Colum- bia, holder of the Middle Atlantic championship and always a spon- sor for the younger group of golfers, thinks Miss Pope has great promise as & golfer. “She hits the ball very well and quite far,” Mrs. Haynes says. “And with more experience and more com- petitive play she may go far.” Miss| Williams, earlier in the season, won The Star Cup by a single stroke from Miss Pope, but the latter young lady| |of 77, won the blind bogey tourney youngster around Washington since Dorothy White was coming aleng at the ‘Washington Golf and Country Club six or seven yeaers ago. Perhaps in this young Kenwood miss the National Cap- ital has the making of a potential big time golfer. L.

The Finn Iso-Hollo, the “Polish Courfer” Kusocinski, and perhaps also the Finn Virtanen, are the best after Lehtinen, obviously in the sbove order.

In my view, the winning can- didates must lle between Ritola, if he should run, the Argentine Zabala, my- self and a couple of Japanese. 1 can quite imagine seeing the large | number of runncrs coming out from the gate of the Stadium. The fore- troupe keeps the speed up. a speed which is sure to bring aisaster, ex- haustion, suffering and the collapse of the great dreams. The warm Cali- forma air will soon force the sweat out on the powerful hodies, the speed increases automatically, without no- tice. There are many who do not see the denger. They are thinking that perhaps they may be able this day to realize their great object.

Those who had already begun to believe in their own chances find out their mistake. They eitker fall out or, fighting bravely to the last, have to give way to those who at this stage are able to improve their speed. The final prospective candidates now have the combat to themselves and this match, I believe, will be such as has never been seen before.

NE of the most common faults of beginners is to bring the right arm too much into the downswing with the result that it forces the left arm to break as the clubhead comes through the ball. One of the advantages of con- centrating one’s mind upon keep- ing the left arm extended in the swing is that it causes one to for- get the right side, which thus is apt to fall easily into the forward movement of the swing. This, just as naturally, allows the left arm to keep straight on the swing through. / ‘Watching Gene Sarazen in action, one is impressed by the infallible action of his left arm.
