SPORTS. » B-13 rWashingion Professional Golfers See No Champlonsth for Didrikson NEVER WILL EQUAL MALES, THEY AVER * McLeod, Houghton Disagree | With Cruickshank, Who Sees Her as Champ. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. OBBY CRUICKSHANK, dimin- utive Richmond pro and hoid- er of the National Capital open championship, . thinks Babe Didrikson is going to be a great | golfer some day soon, but you ca convince the rest of the local daid players that the Babe is going any- where in golf against good male com- petition. A few days ago Bobby de- clared that Didrikson will win the national open championship “witni | three years” if she keeps on imoroving as she has been improving. Bobby was quoted in the news- papers, and it caused a lot ot arched eyebrows and polite nods. Among other little matters concerning the muscular girl from Texas, Crutky mentioned her undoubted power, her mighty tee shots and her tremendous wallops with the irons. He played a couple of rounds w:tn her at Hot Springs, and was so im- pressed that he declared the Babe will outstrip any of her sex in golf in future years and will become a factor ‘Walter Dick is “flying” Final flgules were 60 (o 0. in tournaments against the men. But Al Houghton and Fred McLeoa think differently. “THERES a woman named Joyce | Wethered who has all the sh 'i any man ever had.” Fred says. is a mark for any girl to shoot at, wd if Miss Didrikson becomes as ood as | ARKING the first time women she is she will have gone a long way But Joyce never entered an oven tournament and probably she couldn’t The have gone far had she done so. men have too much advantage strength and accuracy, stamina over the long route for a woman.” in Al Houghton likewise was as amazed | at the distance the re- | as Cruicky doubtable Babe gets with her wooden clubs and long irons, but ne doesr't see eye to eye with the Edinbureh Scot about the business of winning a big tournament against the male stars. “I saw her play the seventeenth at Hot Springs with a drive and a No. 4 iron.” he said. “The hole measures 490 yards, and she was on the green with those two shots, where T played two full wooden shots. And I saw her play the eighteenth, 208 yards, with a No. 4 iron and bag a deuce, where I played the hole with a spoon. But even with that power she was play- ing the wrong clubs. “I think if she cut down that pow=s and swung well within herself and her capabilities she would be more ac- curate and more consistent. Further- more, she has a lot to learn ahou® the play around the greens. Where the real scoring is done.” “DO YOU like golf? Are you real interested in going places m this game?” we asked Miss Didrikscr: M I,” and her face glowed. “Im crazy about it. My one ambi- tion is to become a really good golfer. And I think I am getting the experi- ence I need. I am going to play in a1l these tournaments and get experien even if I don’t win any money.” You could tell from the enthusiasm | she showed that she was as much in | earnest as she was the day she stepped out at Los Angeles in 1932, shook off her robe and tossed the javein yards (not feet) beyond the then world's women's mark. But that is all behind her. She is in the golf racket now working for a Louisville firm, in com- petition with one of the great woman golfers of all time—Helen Hicks. If you can go by enthusiasm ard will to win the Babe will go places in the links game. She has undoubted power and strength, but lots of preg have had those and missed winning.

The match was a com- plete replay of one staged a week ago in which three hours of competition left the teams deadlocked in the Afth set. Reasons for yesterday's results were twofold — the national public parks champions were “right”; the losers “couldn't get going.” Little more than an hour was required for the three sets. It all ended when Welsh drove a burning placement past his old rival, Mitchell. S HARNESS RACES OFF. LEXINGTON, Ky.

CHAPEL HILL, N. £, September 28.—North Carolina opened de- fense of its State foot ball champion- ship today with a 14-to-0 victory over | Wake Forest's demon Deacons before | 8,000 fans. Wake Forest never threatened. The first drive was started as Mont- | gomery grabbed a Deacon pass on the 27-yard line. A series of ad- vances, including a 20-yard sprint off right tackle by Don Jackson, put the ball on the half-yard line and Hutch- ins slipped through left guard for the | marker. Babe Daniel made the extra point from placement. | A steady drive down the field, to-| gether with a forward-lateral pass from Jackson to Buck to Snyder that accounted for 20 yards finally put the ball on the 1l-yard line and | !

Capital racing enthusiasts really came into their own later, however, in the all-Washington sweepstakes, { for locally owned and driven boats. with the George D. Horning trophy at stake. The 10-mile test was taken | by the Ednandy III, the pride of | Andy Crawford. The final event on the card was known as the cruiser chance race— | and a lot of the participants took & lot of chances. The event brought out about a score of gaily decorated cruisers, each carrying as many pas- sengers as they could hold, and gen- | erally threatening to ram every neigh- bor as they wallowed in the heavy wash. This kept up for five miles and out of it comes a winner—eventually. A number drawn from a hat decides this. The power boat races were fol- lowed by the opening half of a series of canoe races, for which one of the trophies is the award of Sir Thomas Lipton. The canoe mces also epd today and with them will be rowing races. Annual Dinner Held. The annual dinner and reception of the Regatta Association was held last pight at the National Press Club. Inaugurating today's program will be the midget outboard race at 12:30 o'clock, in which the tiny craft will vie for the Commodore John A. Remon trophy. Children of officlals of the American Outboard Association will pilot the little egg-beaters. Starting at 1 o'clock, races will be run off every 20 minutes until the final event, the American speedboat championship, gets under way at 5 9 o'clock. Heats and final races in lmmur and professional class C outboard competition will be run off first, fol- lowed by the E class inboards. Im- mediately after this will follow one of the most interesting and prob- ably one of the most hotly contested races on the entire schedule, the free-for-all outboard handicap. Featuring the day, of course, will be the second heat and final race for the President's Cup. Record at Stake. In keen competition throughout the Summer, Crawford, Dr. Cecil Bagley of Baltimore, and Auerbach, the Jerseyite, again will battle it out in the 225-cubic-inch hydroplane race.

HEVY CHASE won the second annual playground archery tournement held on the range south of the Lincoln Memorial pool yesterday, but the boys of Virginia Avenue proved superior to boys of all other playgrounds in strictly masculine events. Chevy Chase’s total of 2,076 gave it a sub- stantial lead over the second-place Hamilton archers, who compiled 1,783 points. Virginia Avenue's senior boys fin- ished 50 points ahead of Hamilton with 814 points while the junior male archers beat out the Chevy Chase shooters by 43 points.

More than 34,000 fans turned out hoping to see another Kostka, a Lund or a Larson at Memorial Stadium, but saw instead a team that lacked the flaming spirit that marked the 1934 aggregation.
