T HE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTO! D.-C, J Plan Is Presented to Give Instruction to Golf Aspirants in High School Here HOUCHTON OFFERS IDEA T0 OFFICIALS . Mass Teaching Would Cost/ Little and Not Hinder Classroom Work. BY W. R. McCALLUM. tend the high schools in the National Capital, is to he taught the fundamentals of swinging a golf club as a part of the athletic curriculum of the public high schools, if the idea of one of Washington's prominent golf professionals finds favorable | response from the school authori- | ties. Supt. Ballou and Assistant Supt Kramer of the public school system cf | ‘Washington have before them a plan | by which mass instruction in goif | fundamentals may be given thousands of prospective gelfers in the high schools | of the city next year by one or more of the outstanding instructors in the game, the main idea being to start| “Young America” right on the path of learning the proper way to start on the game he is almost sure to pick up ir later life. L HOUGHTON, outsundmg pro-‘ fessional player around Washing- | ton last year, co-holder of the | Pinehurst Midsouth championship and Maryland State open titleholder, him- self a former Washington schoolboy, | has laid before the authorities a plan | by which large groups of students may | be taught the fundamentals of the | e at small cost and without inter- fering with their class room studies. believe that proper instruction in the fundamentals of the game is onz of the most important means of pro- ducing better golfers,” Houghton said, | talk with Messrs. Ballou =“With cluses receiving instructions i all the high schools of the city throughout the school year it would noc be long before intersst in golf in the | schools of Washington reached white | heat, and certainly better golfers wouid be produced if they received the right | kind of instruction. My idea is not to | have a class of 30 or 4) youngsters | driving golf balls all over a stadium, but to work out with them in a gymnasium or a class room, anywkere they can swing a club, training them in the fundamentals of grip, stance and swing. | They do not have to hit a ball, but they can learn in this way the funda- mentals that are so important in getting the right start in the game. “Mr. Ballou and Mr. Kramer listened to me attentively and both said the | plan has possibilities, holding out hope '.ht the cost of such instruction coula bé defrayed through use of Community Center funds. For that matter a nominal charge to each pupil would cgver the cost of a series of instruction fundunenu SST. SUPT. KRAMER long has been in favor of broadening the athletic schedule in the high schools by introducing more sporis in which more pupils can take active part rather than acting merely as rooters at foot ball, base ball and basket ball games. He has mentioned golf as ane of the sports in which larger numbers of students can take an active part. Golf in the public schools of Washing- ton has been badly neglected. Several irs ago Charles G. Dawes, then Vice gndant of the United States, put up ® cup to be played for by teams from the high schools in Spring competition. The matches were held for two or | three years and then lagged because of lack of faculty interest and supervision. Interscholastic tournaments have be=n held but th=y also have lacked faculty | rvision. ~Last Winter The Star olered to put up trophies for an lncer- scholastic championship, but the proje found sma'l response and at present nr, dormant. waiting for some interested | person to take hold of it and make it | & real even’. Golf in the high schools néeds a real push. With such a push Washington could and would produce | such players as the Chick Evans of 25 | ears ago, the Jecs Swestser of 15 years ck, and_the crop of stars who de- | wveloped their games while in high | scheol. R. gressional and Manor, is to leave the Capital early this week on a | tour of Southern golf courses which | will take him through the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida, searching for new ideas which he may use to improve the | two local courses under his supervision. Among the courses he plans to visit are the following: Sedgefield Country Club, Greensboro. N. C.. Pinehurst, N. | C.; the new Bobby Jones golf course at Augusta, Ga.; the Municipal Golf Club of Jacksonville; the St. Augustine links, Forest Hill Golf Club of Tamba. Fla.. Boca Raton, Fla.. Miami-Bi't- more, Coral Gables, Fla.; the Seminole Golf Club at Palm Beach, Savannah Country Club, Savannah, Ga.: Sea Is- land Club, Brunswick, Ga.. and Yea- man's Hall, Charleston C. He will return to Washington about Feb- ruary 15. On his return Hinos expects to con- fer with D. L. Them-on, chairman of the Golf and Greens Committc: at Manor, regarding several proposed changes in the first nine at Manor. It nned t> lengthen at least two of the holes on the first nine. The initial change will be made in the ninth hole where the slope of the green will be changed to improve the putting That ninth green has had too much slope in it almost from the dey the course was opened.

ENGLAND CALLS OFF INTERNATIONAL POLO Financial Stringency Makes It In-| expedient to Challenge for Cup This Year. y | By the Associated Press. ONDON, January 7.—Brig. Gen. T. H. S. Marchant, secretary of the Hurlingham Club Polo Committee, | today said the Hurlingham Club would | not challenge the United States for the Westchester Cup this year. “No mtemalioml matches will take place in 1933 Brig. Gen. Marchant said. “The Hurlingham Club, in con-] junction with the Hurlingham Club Polo Committee, has decided that owing to the financial situation it is inex- pedient to issuc a challenge for the Westchester Cup.” Under the rules of play for the cup a challenge may be issued every three years. In 1930 the Hurlngham Club fent the team of Gerald Balding. Lewis 7, Capt. C. T. I. Roark and Humph- T . Guinness to the United States to challenge for the cup. They were de- feated in two stra‘ght matches by an American team composed of Eric Pedley. Earle A. S. Hopping, Winston Guest and Thomas Hitchcock, jr, who acted as captan This year will see the first break in the three-vear series since 1921, Eng- Jand challenging every third year since that time. The first England-United Stetes matches were played in 1886, with England the victor. England also won in 1902 and agan in 1914, but the United States was successful in 1909, 1911, 1913, 1921, 1924, 1927 and 1930. The,United States thus leads 1 series victories, saven to three.

January 7 ).—Tommy Armour, the “Black Scot” of the professonzal golfing brigade, is on a subpar spree here that hes gaileries of golf-wise Pine- hurst pop-eved. Armour ceme here three weeks ago ostensibly to rest, but confi- dentially to tune-up for thc United States open, the British open and the other big-money events of the Summer season, and this is how he has rested: Played 18 holes of golf daily. Shot 13 subpar rounds in two weeks, | Tied the 6¢-stroke record for the No. 2 championship course held by Joe Turnesa of Elmsford, N. Y. Armour posted a 69 yesterday, two under par, to wind up what he calls the best streak of gelf in his long career on the 1 nk: Two or three days before that he cruised around the treacherous champicnship layout in 64 strokes to tie Turnesa’s record.

Gene Sarazen, open champion of the United States and Great Britain, was off to a bad start. His putts just staved out on half a dozen holes, and, after a shaky 38 fo: the first nine, his good 36 coming home could give him no better than 74. Sarazen, one of the favorites, was still a menace to his fellow pros, shoot- ing for $5,000 or more, but he has much ground to make up in the next three rounds. 'ORTON SMITH of Oak Park, IIl., was a stroke back of Sarazen, with 75, and among the players a stroke in front of the champion of champions was Dick Metz, one of the up and_coming younger generation of nros. Harry Cooper, winner of the first Los Angeles open, eight years ago, struggled eround today in 77 strokes. Eddie Loos, who led the field at th close of the first round in 1931, dupli. cated his two-year-old score today, but it was not quite good enough to grab | the undisputed lead. At that, the blond little pro had a great chance to take the first phce all by himself with only cne hole to go. He came to the eighteenth needing a par 4 for 68, but sent, his second into a deep ditch. He barely got on the | green with his recovery and then had | to knock in a 5-foot putt for a 5 after being short with his approach putt. The eighteenth hole meted out even more cruel punishment to the smooth swinging Mac Smith. The Carnoustie star had to take six strokes after getting in the same ditch and failing to get out on his first attempt. NGRUM had a sensational first nine, going out in 33 strokes, negotiating four straight holes in 3 strokes each. Loos also had four straight threes, his coming on the second nine. A crowd estimated at 2,500 thronged | the course, suggesting that the pros might split more than the $5,000 guar- anteed, since they are playing for the total gross gate. The picturesque Wilshire Country Club course, a golfing oasis nestling be- tween rows of apartment houses and residences in the very heart of Los Angeles, was groomed to almost perfect condition. After tomorrow’s 18 holes the fleld will be reduced to the low 50 and ties, the survivors battling it out to a finish | over a long stretch of 36 holes Monday. It was a good day for the amateurs who cannot win any of the prize money, but seemed determined to share the glory. In addition to Goddard, tied for the lead. and Dawson, in the first | 10, Charley Seaver and Walter Johnson, Los Angeles amateurs, and Harry ‘Wesbrook, Pasadena, scored 74, | CHff Baker of Portland, Oreg., had 75. | TULANE Toss'éhs TINY Five's Lack of Height.
