BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. ITH all this gloomy weather around and with golf courses softer than they have been since last Fall, it's hard to realize that the official opening of the big-time tournament season—when the top-liners will start | their Spring hunt for headlines—is | Just a month away. Yep, it is just a month to the ini- | tial golf affair of the 1935 amateur | season around Washington, when all | the Iads will be out there on the first | tee at Woodmont awaiting the start- | er's signal to smack a sizzling tee shot down toward that tricky first green. And right after that opening | event at Woodmont will come a flock | of big affairs, topped by the Middle | Atlantic champlonship at Virginia | Beach and the national intercollegiate title tourney at Congressional. The Southern Golf Association | championship at Richmond, an affair | which richly deserves the support of | all clubs, has caused so little splash | on the golf calendar that the Mary- land State Golf Association, acting | in the face of a protest from Rich- | mond, has set its championship tour- ney for the same week. [ Peacock Heads Field.

Harper pitched hitless ball during tpe six innings he was on the mound. Eddie Morgan, Washington second base- man, played brilliantly afield and made two hits. Eddie Foster, third baseman of the Natignals, also gathered a pair of bingles. Evers, Magee, Maranville and Gowdy were among the Braves' players. Pitcher Young of Williams Col- lege held Georgetown University's batters to four hits and won his game. Central High's nine again hit the ball hard, pounding out 12 hits to defeat Gonzaga.

Two Money Proposals. 'NDER plan No. 1 Baer would re- ceive $150,000 four weeks before | the fight and $150.000 more 10 days before he climbs into the ring | 2gainst Schmeling. Under plan No, |2, the champion would receive $15,000 ibetore he sails for Europe, $15,000 more when he arrives, and the re- maining $270,000 after the fight has | taken place. l Both contracts stipulated that Baer must be in Europe on or before July 17, and that he must not engage in | any bout between July 1 and August {17, The latter provision would allow the champion to fulfill his contract with Madison Square Garden for a June title defense, which probably will take him into the ring against Jimmy Braddock. Harvey, manager of Steve Hamas, was named by Rothenburg to carry on negotiations with the champion. Schmeling, Harvey said, already is | under contract to the Berlin promoter. “Here is the contract,” Harvey said on his arrival here. “I'll submit it to Ancil Hoffman, Baer's manager. I understand Hoffman wants the money put ‘on the line. This fellow Rothen- burg acts as well as talks, and he'll deposit the money in any bank Hoff- man names.” Rome Is Likely Choice. LTHOUGH the site for the pro- H posed battle has not been se- lected, Harvey said Rome, Vienna and London were under considera- tion, with Rome most likely. The chief drawback to holding it in Eng- land, Marvey said, was the fact that a tax of about 22 per cent of the re- ceipts would have to be paid. “My own hunch.” he added, “is that it will be held in Rome.
