But put him with a mashie-niblick shot 30 yards from the pin and he is almost certain to get the ball down in two strokes, Just because he leaves his pitch or chip eight feet away doesn't mean anything to “Red.” For he knuckles down to that ball, feet close together, left elbow out, body braced against any possible sway and stroking the putter | blade through the line in a groove, he nonchalantly knocks the pill into the cup. He does it so consistently that there can’t be any question about the excellence of his stroke cr of his confi- dence he will do just that. _Cunningham’s finest putting exhibi- ton came a year or two ago at Burning Tree on a day when the red-head wasn't hitting the ball so well from the tee and through the grcen. But he got around in 24 putts and a 71. Consider that that inflexible foe of golfers—Old Man Par—gives two putts to each green for a total of 36 per round and you see what Cunningham did, when he played the course in 12 below its putting par and 1 below its total par. The six and eight footers are as simple as pie to the confident red-head. Where others quake and fear putts of this length, Cunningham steps up to the ball and confidently strokes it in. Like all fine putters “Red” hasn't the slight- est sign of a push or jab in his putting stroke. It is just a stroke in which the meeting of the clubhead with the ball is an incident and not the main objec- tive as it is in iron shots of some types. The other day “Red” played the Washington course in 74 strokes. In this 74 he had only 29 putts, with seven 1-putt greens and one of 3, when he went too boldly for a 20-footer on a slippery green and slid up a tricky slope five feet past. He holed so many six-footers that the men with whom he was playing considered the ball as good as in whensver he got that close. And so it turned out. He only missed one putt of reasonable length during the round. Yes, sir, this lad “Red” Cunningham is quite a master of the most difficult part of the game. CTIVITIES ,of the Senior Golf As- sociation of the Chevy Chase Club, one of the liveliest of the club or- ganizations about Washington, may be curtailed this year. Gen. D. C. Shanks, the spark-plug of the associaticn, who served as chair- man last vear after expressing a de- sire to get out of harness, has made no move to organize a schedule, and the senlor association has lost a good many members. Without the magnetic personality of Shanks running the tournaments the association will have lost a colorful leader.

BOUT a score of years ago the name of Charles Cutler blazon- ed in the headlines of the daily newspapers for he was one of Amer- ica’s best heavyweight wrestlers. He thrived at a time when the field was full of stars and when the for- elgn imported grapplers were far superior to those who come to these shores nowadays. Yet Cutler came through with flying colors in com- petition against all nations. He wes CHARLES CUTLER. one of the leading grapplers at catch-as-catch-can style and among his victims were wrestlers who have made ring_history. Today, Cutler has deserted his old field for a new one. Only a few days ago, a report emanated from Indiana to the effect this star of a few years back is the manager of a heavyweight fighter for whom he sees ‘a bright future. Charley is managing & Cherokee Indian, Osley Samnoake by name. Osley is a giant who weighs 306 pounds, and Cutler says that if he can't make good as a fighter, he'll teach the Indian the intricacies of wrestling, in which branch, Samnoake, Wil his weight, should become a attraction. At any rate, in Cutler, the Indian has a teacher who knows wrestling from A to Z. s (Copyrixiat. 1938.) | | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, SATURDAY, MARCH 25, '1933. ST. PATRICK QUINT FOOLS DOPESTERS Champs Advance in Catholic Tourney With Victory Over Favorites. BY PAUL MICKELSON. Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, March 25.—Fighting outfits from Illinois, New York and Indiana still were shelling away today as the spirited offensive for the national Catholic high school basket ball crown moved into the quarter-final sector. Headed by the never-surrender St. Patricks, & team that wasn't given even an outside chance of retaining its inter- national title, Chicago led the field with four smart entries—St. Rita, St. George, and De Paul, champion of the City Catholio League. Indiana had two powerful survivors in Cathedral of Indianapolis and the surprising Reitz Memorial from Evans- ville, while New York, never before a dominating factor in the tournament, 'was represented by St. Mary of Niagara Falls and Augustinian of Carthage. FURIOUS interstate duel was as- sured for the semi-finals tonight 85 the quarter-final pairings matched St. Patrick against St. Rita and St. Mary vs. Reitz in the upper bracket with lower bracket action cen- tered in engagements between Cathedral Augustinian and De Paul and St. choice, however, because of its irre- sistible spirit and dash.

STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE ONGRESSIONAL COUNTRY CLUB has taken a step to- ward consolidation of golf ac- tivities that already has been taken by two other ciubs, in the ap- pointment of one man to head the combined Golf and Greens Committees of the big organization out near Rock- ville. Henry J. Richardson, a Wash- inglon attorney and prominent mem- ber of Congressional, who has been chairman of the Greens Committee for the past two years, has been named to head both the Golf and Greens Com- mittees this year. His committee will be in charge of the golf course and all men's club tournaments held as purely club affairs. Dr. Bruce L. Taylor, who headed the club’s Golf Committee last year and has represented Congressional at meet- ings of the golf associations here for years, is to head the Committee on Major Tournaments, such as the club invitation event, planned for late in June, and the District and Middle At- lantic championship affairs. Dr. Tay- lor is a former president of ,the District Colf Assoctation. Mrs. Harry A.

By the Associated Press. 'OLUMBUS, Ohio, March 25.—Otto Nitschke of Cleveland, veteran of | more than 20 American Bowling Tournaments, today sought to accomplish that which no competitor in the 32 years of the pin classic has been able to do—succeed himself as A. B. C. singles champion. He topped 7,177 bowlers in the tour- nament at Detroit last year by scoring 731 and today had his chance to col- lect & 1933 series that will stand all attacks in the coming weeks. Bowlers from more than 40 cities will roll tonight and tomorrow on a week- end card that is one of the strongest of the schedule. Crashing the pins for games of 958, 1,004 and 974—a total of 2,936—the Bodnar Undertakers of Cleveland crashed through to the team event lead last night. They displaced the Rexolas of Milwaukee. the left side of the fairway to prevent long hitters from taking a short cut across the elbow at the left of the groper line at this dog-leg hole. As the ole now stands, the men who can really wallop a golf ball can cut off a good deal of distance the short route on the left side. But they run considerable risk of getting a bad lie on the hillside and still have a shot over a quarry and a group of trees to the green. Sandy Armour, the club pro, predicts that the left-hand route will become very unpopular when the origi- nal ideas of Donald Ross as ta bunker- ing of the hole are carried out by lacing a row of deep traps along the fln edge of the fairway, to have the effect of forcing the tee shot out to the right. 'UR local golf professionals are to leave tomorrow for Pinehurst, N. C., to play in the North and South champlonship Tuesday and Wednesday. Mel Shorey, despite what is described as a chronic appendicitls case, hopes to go. Al Houghton of Kenwood, Sandy Armour of Eon:ruslunu and George Diffenbaugh of Indian Spring are to leave tomorrow.

HICAGO, March 25.—Barney Ross has traveled swiftly along the road of pugilism. Three years ago he was a featherweight who came out o; Chicago’s ghetto district to win the amateur championship of thg city and then defeat New York’s title holder in an intercity bout. Soon he will be meeting Tony Canzoneri for the lightweight championship of the world. Ross bowed into the championship class when he beat Billy Petrolle, the Express, in the Chicago Stadium ‘Wednesday. Canzoneri, the champion, sat at the ringside and was greatly im- pressed by Ross’ performance. It is likely the new promoters of the stadium will make a Ross-Canzoneri match as one of the outstanding sports events of the Summer season. The Ross- Petrolle bout drew more than 15,000 fans. Granted Petrolle is. not quite the fighter he was 2 few years back, he still is a tough testing block for ang aspiring youngster. So when Ross won 7 of tne 10 rounds he definitely ese lished himself as a contender fof the lightweight crown. R & youngster in the professional F end of boxing, Ross is exceptionally cool and canny in the ring. He consistently raked Petrolle with & left hook and right cross and there were times when he landed as many as siy blows before Petrolle could sink one in return. The Chicagoan is a great coun- ter-fighter and picked Petrolle off a3 Billy would bore in on him. Ross proved he could take it wil the best of them in the fourth round. Billy laced Ross with a left hook, but never could open him up for rights to the head. If Ross should reach the championship class he will be more af | a boxer than a fighter and will recall Sammy Mandell to the fans. It may be a bit too soon to toss Ross against Canzoneri, but he wants his shot at Tony without much delay |and if he boxes as he did againsp Petrolle he will give the champion plenty of trouble.

IN THE STAR. By the Associated Press. ETHLEHEM Pa, March 25.—Indi- ana’s wrestlers led the way for a powerful Midwestern contingent into the semi-finals of the National Cols legiate Athletic Association wrestling championships today. Five men from Indiana occupled semie final brackets. Oklahoma A. and M., Jowa State Teachers, Southwestern State Teachers’ College of Oklahoma and Lehigh, the only strong Eastern schx each qualified four grapplers in night's second-round matches. Illinois and Iowa State were represented by two men each, including the only defend: champions on the lists, Joe Puerta Illinois in the 118-pound class and Rob< ert Hess of Iowa State it the 175-pound division. : Single representatives of Virginia Military Institute, Northwestern, Brown, Lafayette, Ursinus, Harvard and the University of Oklahoma completed the list of 32 survivors in the eight divisions, Ben Bishop of Lehigh took the honor of winning the outstanding bout of thé long opening-day program. Bishop, Na- tional A. A. U. champion in the 145- pound division, turned back Maynard Harmon, Olympic grappler from Towa State Teachers' College, with a three- minute time advantage. Hess, another member of the 1932 Olympic mat team, had only two minutes time advantage over Richard Voliva of Indiana, who had - beaten him in a dual meet earlier this season, championship to the Red River coun- try of Southern Oklahoma last March. The stars of the Cardinal triumph were Lucille Thurman, center, who scored Dine field goals, and Vera Dunford, a big red-head reserve, who was thrown into the furious milling when lttle Doll Harris, Redbird captain &nd sure- shot forward, was forced to hobble to the bench on a severely wrenched knee. Thurman and Harris both earned all- American rating at forward, with Harris as captain, but the forward member cf the Dunford twin-sister act was unranked owing to the fact she is a second stringer on the all-star Okla- homa squad and plays as a substitute. The deadly Cardinal offensive was crippled momentarily and the Cyclones | took charge when Harris departed, but Dunford soon filled in adequately and had five fleld goals at the end. 1SS WILLIAMS, the Dallas center, won the pivot position on the all- America first team, with Miss Thurman at forward because of Wil- liams’ great advantage in stature at the jump. All-America guards Corene Jaax of the Wichita Thurstons, who took third place in the tourna- ment by beating the Steuben Club of Kansas City, 28-18, in the play-off game; F.
