SPORTS. Thrills With Long Tee Shots : National Tennis Draws Rec Hurdle for Barney Welsh Thomson MASTER OF DRIVE HERE NEXT MONTH Jimmy Apt to Find Indian| Spring Ideal Spot for His Great Wallop. BY W. R. McCALLUM. F LONG and accurate driving is fully 50 per cent of low scoring in golf, Jimmy Thompson, the tow-headed Scottish lad who will eppear at Indian Spring on Septem- ber 2, should have the populace pop- eyed with astonishment at the figures he turns in over that lengthy course. And if there ever has been a layout which is better adapted to low scoring via the route of the big wallop than Indian Spring it hasn't yet been laid out on a course architect’s map. Bob Barnett, knowing little Chevy Chase pro, claims that long and accur- ate hitting with wooden clubs counts fully 50 per cent in the sector of iow scoring. “In good golf the man who can hit a long and accurate tee shot has a 50 per cent edge on the other boys,” Bob claims. “It isn't so pro- nounced in the upper strata of scor- ing, but when the boys begin banging the ball around in par or better the long hitters have the edge.” That being the fact, Jinmy Thom- son should do some scoring at Indian Spring to cause a lot of chin-dropping and eyebrow lifting. But will he? Not All Long Hitting. 'HE golf course hasn't vet been built that gives all to the gent who | parks the ball out in the great open spaces without considerable ability to | chip and putt. At Oakmont, where he finished second to Sam Parks after three-putting the final green in a gal- lant bid for a birdie and a tie, Jimmy walloped the apple so far he con- verted those lengthy drives and iron holes into drive and short pitch af- fairs. His long driving helped him, un- doubtedly, but it wasn’t good enough to win. They" still pay off on the knack of getting the ball into the cup, as Sam Parks demonstrated, and as 50 many winners—among them Paul Runyan—have so often proven. Nevertheless, Jjnmy will go on giving Johnny Duffer a flock of kicks as he parks the ball far out there past the efforts of ordinary men. Learned at Burning Tree. ENRY PICARD, the tall pine from Plymouth, Mass.,, who will ap- pear with Jimmy, is no ordinary hit- ter. With a very upright swing and a considerable punch at the ball,| Picard gets good distance, about on the average with the leading pros of the Nation. Jimmy’s lengthy wallops, coming from a sturdy body, 180 pounds of muscular young man and a pair of the finest wrists in golf, were developed right here at Burning Tree. For it | served three years as assistant pro, | that he learned the swing and pivot | that gets him remarkable distance. | ‘We have a mental picture of many afternoon hours spent watching the big blond boy, brassie in hand, step | out behind the ninth green at Burn- ing Tree to burn the ball down that tree-bordered ninth fairway.

ROOKLINE, Mgss., August 24.— Although it's the same story, there is a chance that it will have a new ending when the United States Wightman Cup team’s four aces meet at Longwood today to divide the women’s national doubles tennis trophies. As was the case at Forest Hills last year, Helen Jacobs and Mrs. Saran Palfrey Fabyan, the country's top- ranking players, must turn back Mrs. Dorothy Andrus of Stamford, Conn., and Carolin Babcock of Los Angeles before they can put in a repeat order for the larger pair of the championship trophies, Miss Jacobs and Mrs, Fabyan won the titles last year after dropping the first set to their old rivals, who appear strong enough not only to force them into overtime again but extend them to the limit. 3 Defeat British Girls.

By the Associated Press, EW ORLEANS, August 24— Barney Welsh, defending champion in the National Public Parks tennis tourna- ment, was to shoot for the 1935 title here today, facing Willlam Schom- mer, University of Minnesota's Big Ten champion, who was expected to rely on court strategy and change of pace in his effort to overcome the Washington, D. C., star. Neither finalist was forced past three sets in winning his way to the championship round. Schommer re- ceived his stiffest battle of the tour- nament yesterday in the first set against Arnold Simons, last year's runner-up, who forced Schommer to 7—b before bowing in three sets. The fellowing scores were 6—2, 6—2. No other rival had taken more than four games from Schommer in any one set. ‘Welsh’s Path Smooth. WELSH'B path toward the defense of his title today was just as se. rene. When he defeated his semi- final foe, William Lurie of New York, 6—3, 6—1, 6—4, yesterday, that third encounter marked only the second time Welsh had been forced to sur- render as many as four games a set. ‘Tomorrow, with his partner, Ralph McElvenny, Welsh will seek the dou- bles championship for the second suc- cessive year.
