R. McCALLUM. ASHINGTON probably \ ;s / will have its first big in- vitation women’s golf tournament next Fall. The Women's District Golf As-| sociation has before it an offer made by Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes, the new District women’s cham- plon, to donate prizes for an in- vitation tournament to be held in the Fall, probably in September, and very likely at the Columbia Country Club. | While plans for the event are un- | settled, as yei, there is every probability | that the vigorous and energetic present leadership of the women's association | will accept Mrs. Haynes’ offer and stage | the tournament. If it is held, it will | make two big events for the woman golfers in this section in the Fall, for | the Middle Atlantic championship for ‘women will be played at the Country Club of Virginia in October. F her offer is accepted Mrs. Haynes plans to invite several of the lead- ing woman golfers of the East to take part in the event, among them | Meureen Orcutt, the Englewood, N. J., miss who played here in April; Helen | Hicks of Hewlett. Long Island, a former national champion; several of the lead- | ing feminine stars from Philadelphia | and from the Midwest. Mrs. Haynes has played extensively in the South and | in several national tournaments and is intimately acquainted with most of the leading fair players of the Nation. Never before has a women’s invitation golf tournament been played around ‘Washington, although the Gibson Island | Club, in nearby Maryland, has staged | such a tourney for several years. How- ever, Gibson Island never has had the impressive entry list which the forth- ecoming tournament probably will have. | As the Middle Atlantic event now | stands, tentative dates have been set for October 16-20, inclusive, when the James River course of the Country Club of Virginia will be at its best. These dates are expected to be ratified by the Middle Atlantic Golf Aasociation with- in a few days. Kenwood Golf and Country Club has | received official sanction from the Pro- | fessional Golfers’ Association for its| 1933 National Capital open tournament. Letters received yesterday by A.

By the Associated Press. OUTHPORT, England, June 24— One of the briskest golfing battles ey waged for the Ryder Cup, An- glo-American professional team trophy, is awaited Monday and Tuesday here. Lancashire and the North of England are making big preparations for the in- ternational tussle between Capt. Walter Hagen's invaders and a strong British }Hde directed by the veteran, J. H. Tay- or. Arrangements have been made to handle up to 10,000 spectators for the two days of fhy, which will cansist of four two-ball foursomes Monday and eight singles matches Tuesday. The Prince of Wales will be here for the final day's competition. In four previous series, each country has been victorious twice on home links, and the British are confident of sus- taining this record. 5 “Win? Of course we will win,” said Taylor today. OTH professional teams include much new talent. Only five of the 10 Britons are survivors of the 1831 matches at Columbus—Charles ‘Whitcombe, Abe Mitchell, W. H. Davies, Arthur Havers and Syd Easterbrook. On the American team, Capt. Hagen, Gene Sarazen, the present British open cham- pion, Leo Diegel, Horton Smith and Ed Dudley are survivors of the last British invasion four years ago. The newcomers to the British side are Percy Alliss, Allan Dailey, A. J. Lacey, A. H. Padgham and A. Perry. The Americans are short of practice and only one of them, Sarazen, has had any competition since reaching England. Barazen lost an exhibition match to Abe Mitchell. ‘While the Americans indulged their dwn personal fancies in workouts today, | the British players finished a condition- ing program that seems more suited to rize fighting than golf. They have en under the care of doctors and phy- sical culture experts, meanwhile prac- ticing their golf shots under the direc- tion of Taylor and keeping strict hours. APT. HAGEN met with Capt. Tay- lor tonight and announced the pairings. ‘The two-ball foursomes Monday were arranged as follows: Hagen and Sarazen vs. Percy Allis and Charles Whitcombe; | Olin Dutra and Densmore Shute vs. Abe Mitchell and Arthur Havers; Paul Runyan and Craig Wood vs. W. H. Da- vies and Syd Easterbrook; Ed Dudley and Bill Burke vs. A. H. Padgham and A. Perry. In the singles matches Tuesday, Hor- ton Smith and Leo Diegel, the remain- ing two members of the American team, will compete, but the line-up was not | announced.

By moving this E all know that we ought to practice shots out of bunkers in order to save strokes re- covering from trouble. But Joe Kirkwood gave me another reason not long since—a psychological rea- son. Joe sald: “If you know you can get out of a bunker without trouble, you won't be afrald of playing into one. If you're not afraid, you'll play your second with more confi- dence. Consequently You won't get into bunkers so often.” He added that in the last year or so he has gotten sand shots down s0 fine, that, playing from bunkers close to the green, he wil] leave him- the hip-turn is first transmitted up the left side of my body and alo: arm to my hands, and by ) with this hip all the way down, I am able to use the full amount of this power and supplement it at the right time with that of the arms, shoulders and wrists. Naturally these actions are not sepa- rated by any clear line. It is merely a question of which starts first and which stays ahead. Actually they are all blended together, and in the well-timed | stroke they all reach a peak at the | same time. (Copyright, 1933.)

He made a half-explosion shot. He did not open the face of the club He hit about an inch be- hind the ball. ‘The sole of the “dynamiter” be- ing thick, it is not apt to cut deep- ly into the sand. It bites in far enough to be sure of lifting the ball. Then it ‘“scuffs” forward. Sand “cushions” the shot, as it sweeps through and hoists the ball. “The shot must be hit firmly,” said Joe, “but great application of power is not necessary.
