And along with a growing sick list conference coaches had a few new | discoveries to pride themselves on. There was, for instance, Bill Brad- shaw of Virginia Tech, a newcomer to the punters’ ranks, but hailed as | the stuff by Coach Henry Redd. ‘Washington and Lee felt the weight of injuries as, with six men on the bench from early season hurts, the | Generals went on with the tuning-up process.

He | has been asked by President George | Jacobus of the Professional Golfers Association to go to Ridgewood, N.

Other former | national open champions also have ! been asked to referee the matches. | Fred had a field day yesterday at Congressional, putting like Hagen at | his best, to score a 71, even though his game through the green wasn't| so hot. He finished the first nine with a brace of birdies, chipping stone | dead for his 4 at the eighth, and holing a 15-footer for a 2 at the ainth. He also birdied the twelfth and thirteenth in a row. Over at Kenwood, Wiffy Cox and | Russ Hollebaugh, both scored 69s, | playing the ball without teeing it up. | Both these scores set unofficial course | records for the layout.

The tourney will wind up with a dinner at the club Saturday night, October 5. ONE of the hot kids in that coming Columbia tourney may be Harvey Johnson, the boy with the big feet and hands who has the habit of knock- ing over flocks of birdies. all in a row. S. C. Watkins, jr., came to the fif- teenth hole 2 up and 4 to go on Harvey a few days ago and Harvey won the match on the eighteenth, bagging | three birds in four holes, winding up the round with & 25-foot putt for a 3 | on the eighteenth. In that round Watkins holed an iron shot for an eagle deuce on the fourteenth, one of the rare times this hole has been made in two strokes.

Frank tayes, William White and his brother, Will, were with Reynolds when he landed the 17-pound terp. Branch Rickey, manager ot the St. Louis Browns, left to his play- ers’ decision the policy of keeping as strong a team as possible in the game each day, or inserting young- sters who might gain experience for the future. The players voted unanimously for the latter propo- sition. John O'Reilly, physical director at the Hilltop, this Fall will coach the Georgetown Prep foot ball squad, which will start its practice today. R.

HIS tennis tournament down on the Potomac Park Courts begins to get serious today. For the first time since the Department of Playgrounds’ event started, seeded stars are due to clash and the outcome doesn't look so bright for one Edward (“Red") Mather, ranked No. 8 in the tournay. The flashy red-head has come | through three matches, but at 4 o'clock today he is due to meet Ber- nard Welsh, and that's where most of the boys stop.

Lynch and Boyle met yesterday, by the way, in doubles. Making his first start with Latona as a running mate, Lynch was returned the victor over his today’s foe, who was doubled up with Bob Smith. It was the start of the doubles tournament, in which Don Bent and Jack Latimer also won the only other match played. BURKE PIGEON AHEAD | | No amateur 'G0LF BODY URGED 10 “GANG" CHANP |But Solons May Balk at Kill- ing Goose That’s Laying U.S. G. A’s Golden Eggs. BY W. R. McCALLUM. ERE'S an idea the United H States Golf Association might use to increase the gate at the amateur championship of 1936 at Garden City and possibly to bring about the defeat of Lawson Little for the first time in national competition in this country in three years. This suggestion is offered gratis and if it isn't heeded by the solons of the game, I warn them that the | only way they are going to stop Little is to break his leg or steal his putter hanging around this country is going to beat the Cali- | fonian for a long time It is unfair to any single opponent | to throw Little at him for Lawson i | too devastating, has too much pow. with wood and iron and has too fin | & putting touch for any single mai, s0 here's the scheme: I suggest first that next year the qualify 31 guys for the championshi; |and let Lawson in automatical which he would be anyway. And, Htrtn the Scheme. IN the first round I would take couple of par-slappers like J Goodman and George Voigt and se Lawson out to play their best ball Little probably would win, so the: T would have him meet the wext team, possibly Walter Emery and Eddie Held or Willie Turnesa. If he won his way through this one they then might coax Bob Jones back into the game, give him a good part- ner like Tommy Armour and toss the two of them at Little seems to me that’s the only can strike him out. Against amateur playing golf to- day the man is too good. Here in Washington some year back a lefthander named MHarry Courtney, used to do what the boys laughingly called “pitch” for the Nats. Harry would load the bases and with a lot of husky hitters coming up and Clark Griffith would call for loose- limber Walter Johnson or some other mound ace to get the team out of the hole. Can you imagine Harry Courtrey ! retiring a string of sluggers like T Cobb, Veach? The analogy is the same with Law- son Little. A lot of gu armed with peashooters stepped out out there at Cleveland to fight a fellow armed with a field gun, capable of shooting miles where they were shooting inches. I repeat, the only way they can get Lawson Little out of the title picture is to toss in a couple of men at him at one and the same time, and have them shoot two shots to his one. The U. S. G. A. might cultivate that thought. Sam Crawford and Bobby But How About This? PERH.APS however, the U. 8. G. A. doesn't want Lawson licked! Back in the dear old golden days. when a lot of lads and lassies read the name of Bobby Jones in the gazettes, thev used to tromp out to Inwood or Merice or wherever the championship was being played, to see this man-eater chew ‘'em up. The U. §. G. A. was rolling in gold and they treated Jones as a chorus girl handles a callow millionaire. When Bob left the game the reve- nues dropped off so you could put ‘em in a thimble and hear 'em rattle. Now a new pay streak has been hit. His name is Lawson Little, and the way the dough rolled in at Cleveland one would think a lot of folks knéw somethng about golf.

This was one of two important de- cisions reached last night when direc- tors of the league also voted to re- scind their action of two weeks ago which would have Jimited teams to two ranking stars. George Mullinix of the C. A. Wood Insurance team, rolled the high game last night at the Silver Spring Alleys when the American League of 12 teams opened its season. Mullinix’ team was one of four to win all three games. Others to sweep their sets were National Beer, Lord Baltimore Filling Stations and Bean Home Im- provements.
