B—10 = SPORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FEBRUARY 24, 1935—PART ONE. SPORTS. Base Ball Is Most Dangerous Sport : Short Follow Through Enough in Golf & COLF PUT SECOND IN TOTAL MISHAPS Foot Ball Comes Ninth in a Table Compiled From Insurance Figures. BY JOHN LARDNER. EW YORK, February 23—We were discussing the perils of sport not long ago, and some- body, inflamed by a beaker of maiden rye, offered to bet a sawbuck that golf is a more dangerous pastime than hockey. Your correspondent, after fumbling nonchalantly with his wallet for five minutes, covered the bet. The expert opinion of G. D. Newton was called in to settle it. Now, Mr. Newton qualifies to pass judgment on a question like this be- cause he is an insurance man with a wide range of figures and statistics at his elbow, or near his elbow. He came through for us. His report did not cover professional hockey, the roughest variety, but it did convince us that, over the length and breadth of this great country, golf is the most dangerous diversion of all, except for base ball. Base Ball Leads in Accidents. ASE BALL was a surprise tous. It seems that the national game, as played by amateurs, causes 11.4 per cent of the total number of | accidents in sports. Golf comes next with 11 per cent. Horseback riding is tied with tennis and squash for third, and foot ball and hockey (the amateur brand) are 'way behind the vest of the field. Here is how Mr. Newton sums up the percentages: Base ball—11.4. Golf—11. Tennis and squash—6. ‘Basket ball—5. Bowling—S3. Fishing—3. Foot ball—2. The rest of the accidents are scat- tered among a wide variety of pastimes, including swimming, danc- ing, picknicking and pinning the tail on the donkey. Of course, Mr. Newton is talking about accidents, not deaths. Hockey and foot ball would be up near the top in a death list, though they would still rank behind golf and base ball. I don't know just what it is that makes base ball so fraught with peril. As for golf, Mr. Newton has a lot of details about that. Here is a passage from his report: “A golfer was whittling a ball to see what was inside when the ball exploded, emitting a powerful acid which all but destroyed the sight of one eye. “Another golfer made such a mighty swing on the tee that he threw him- self to the turf with sufficient force to break a leg. Golfer's Bridgework Struck. « o NOTHER golfer was struck by & club which knocked his bridgework down his throat, causing painful lacerations. A fourth was trying some practice shots with a pipe in his mouth and the club handle crashed against the pipe, knocking it into his mouth and breaking off two teeth.” Then, of course, there are lots of cases of beaning. Caddies seem to be beaned more often than players. A Pennsylvania caddy sued for $5,000 because a sliced ball hit his head and impaired his memory. A Kansas City caddy collected $7,500 when a ball blinded his right eye. An Illinois caddy got only $1,050 for the same thing. A Detroit caddy had his elbow broken by a swinging club. A dubbed brassy shot on the fairway broke the rib of another Illinois youth. Mr. Newton winds up his testimony with the following case history: “An inn provided sleds for its guests for coasting. A young lady guest took one of the sleds and while using it on the inn property ran intoa tree. She sued the owner of the inn for $25,000, claiming that the steering gear of the sled was defective and that she had been permanently disfigured.” This is interesting, but sleds come under the head of minor sports on Mr. Newton's list, all Winter pastimes being lumped together and blamed for 5 per cent of the total number of accidents. Our bet had to do with @ Track Resident Never Sees Race By the Associated Press. IAMI, Fla.—Add to the list of unusuals the name of Martha ‘Warneke, who has lived in the shadow of Hialeath Park for four years and neve has seen a horse race. Miss Warneke, sister-in-law of Johnny Keegan, track superin- tendent, lives with the Keegans in a neat little cottage about half- way down the back stretch. Some of the nation’s greatest thorough- breds race past every day, but Miss Warneke is not interested. Even Mrs. Keegan has seen only a few races. “Racing, after all, is just a bunch of horses chasing each other aroynd. What's there to get ex- cited about?” said the two women. SEES BROAD JUMP MARK FOR OWENS Coach of Colored Athlete Believes He Will Turn Trick This Year. By the Assoclated Press. HICAGO, February 23.—A 20- year-old star with at least one world record in his system, is one the loose in the Big Ten. He is Jesse Owens, colored sopho- more from Ohio State. He has his eye on the world broad jump record, and his coach, Larry Snyder, and Eastern experts who have seen him, believe he will take it. He already holds the world indoor mark for the event, 25 feet 3, inches, set in the 1933 national indoor A. A. U. cham- pionship meet at New York. Snyder, a former Ohio State hurdles star, regards the Buckeye Comet as a mortal cinch to bring the world out- door record back to the United States. He believes it possible that Owens may crack the world standard of 26 feet 2% inches, held by Chuhei Nambu of Japan, before the year is over. In a recent dual meet with Illinois, Owens got off a rousing leap of 25 feet 10! inches, but fouled by a tiny fraction. He won the event, however, with 25 feet 2 inches. He is a great sprinter, holder of national prep records of 9.4 seconds for the 100 yards, and 20.7 seconds for 220 yards, and although he hasn't given the event much attention, Owens has cleared 6 feet 4 inches in the high jump. On top of all that, he can gallop a very presentable quarter mile, and is a fine hurdler, particularly in the lows. BY R. R.

It undoubtedly is true that puppies are born with worms. Those few that are born worm-free soon acquire them as the worm eggs are present on the mother’s body. However, unless the signs are unmistakable and the puppy seems too weak to survive unless wormed, it is best not to worm until the puppies are six weeks old. They should be wormed again at three then every six months thereafter.

By the Associated Press. ICHMOND, Va., February 23— Nearing the end of their regu- lar schedules, Southern Con- ference basket ball teams ap- proached next week’s tournament with North Carolina an odds-on favorite. Other teams in the loop, however, have exhibited strength which easily might be sufficient to cause an upset in the tournament which drops teams out by the “sudden death” route. Followers of the court game have not forgotten how 1&st year Wash- ington and Lee, barely squeezing into the list of eight tournament competi- tors, toppled the favorites and came out the winher. Duke and North Carolina State are teams especially likely to give the Tar- heels trouble. North Carolina’s completed schedule shows a record of 12 games won and 1 lost, but it was Duke that accounted for the lone defeat, and North Caro- lina State caused Tarheel supporters’ hearts to skip a beat in the course of a game that State finally lost by & 35-t0-37 score. BLUE RIDGE TO BE PRO Cumberland and Waynesboro Are Invited Into Loop. HAGERSTOWN, Md, February 23.—Bids were held out this week to Cumberland and Waynesboro, Pa., by the Blue Ridge League to form a pro- fessional loop with Hagerstown, Fred- erick, Chambersburg, Pa, and Mar- tinsburg, W. Va. Reversing their previous action of planning to remain an amateur outfit with games over the week ends and on holidays, the representatives of the four clubs decided to join organized base ball on a six-game week and invite two more teams into the cir- cuit. The invitations created considerable interest in Cumberland and Waynes- | boro, but no definite action has been taken in either place. A meeting of the league will be held here Sunday, March 3, for the purpose of posting forfeits and adopting a schedule. TITLE FOR WOLVERINES. ANN ARBOR, Mich., February 23 () —Michigan won the Western Con- ference hockey championship tonight by defeating Minnesota, 3-1. TAYNTON, which to absorb vitamin D and grow big and fat. It is also the easiest sea- son of the year for house training dogs, as even young puppies can be turned out for hours at a time with no ill effects. Puppies born at this time are just at the right age by vacation time to make good pals for the numerous restless children that are turned loose for the Summer and crave the con- stant companionship of another young animal. Apropos of this subject Dorothy Dix | recently published an answer to a 15- | year-old boy on the subject of the kinship between a boy and a dog that will probably take its place with other immortal tributes to the dog. Among other things she said: “Dogs are just as necessarily a part of a boy's educa- tion as reading and writing are, and teaching him to be kind to animals |and to have an understanding and sympathy with all dumb creatures is the lesson they drive home.

TLANTA, February 23.—A new “calamity jane” fashioned from the faithful old putter that carried Bobby Jones to his grand slam in golf, is working over- time as the former world cham- pion of the fairways prepares for the masters’ tournament in April. The chunky club swinger, still considered the emperor of golf, al- though he retired from cumpetitive ranks after triumphing in the open and amateur tournaments of Amer- ica and England in 1930, is taking seriously his plans for the “battle of the stars,” April 4 and 7, over the specially designed course of the Augusta, Ga., National Golf Club.

TRICK IS 70 KEEP CLUBHEADINLINE | Clings to Ball for Six or Eight Inches—Hunter Gives Explanation. BY W. R. McCALLUM. ET the club head moving fast straight along the line to the hole. That's all you have to do. That is all there is to long hitting and straight hitting.” The guy who did the talking ought to know all there is to know about distance lambasting from the tee, for while he was pro at the Indian Spring Country Club he did .more of it and did it more consistently than any man who ever has smacked a golf ball around Washington. He is J. Munro Hunter, the tall Edinburgh Scot, who came here from Milwaukee eight years ago and promptly set the natives on their ears with the potency of his mighty wallops from the tee. “There have been millions of words written and thousands of hours spent on one theory or another of the goif swing, but when you sift it all down it simply comes down to these two points—keeping the club head moving fast along the projected line of fiight,” said Hunter, who now is employed at the Capitol, and probably will 80 back to teaching golf when Spring comes along. “If you don't cut the ball in either direction and get a fair amount of power into the swing, it has to g0 straight and fairly far,” Hunter said. “But if you cut it in either direction t won't go very far and it won't go straight. After all, golf is a matter of angles, and if the club face meets the ball at right angles to the line of flight it simply has to go straight, provided it continues in that straight plane until the ball has gone away.” “And how long does that straight plane last?” we asked him. | I said. “But probably it lasts an 2 appreciable time, perhaps 6 inches or so, maybe 8 inches in the Length of Plane Uncertain.

It wouldn't do to stop the club at impact, for then you wouldn't be keeping that straight line. But. after all, the only things that count are the position of the club face at impact and the speed of the club head as it goes through the ball. It's all perfectly simple, but it is hard to do right.” Short Follow-Through Effective. AKE Abe Mitchell, 15 years ago one of the mightiest hitters of | the game.
