REAK-UP of the California Winter golf schedule for the professionals is going to focus attention on the Eastern and Southern tournaments this Fall and Winter, according to Robert E. Har- low. tournament manager for the Professional Golfers' Association. The California schedule, heretofore an elaborate one, is up in the air today, for the P. G. A. has refused its sanction of the Pacific Coast tour- neys after demands made by the Cal- {fornia sponsors were turned down. This refusal, according to the present view of the situation, may keep many of the prominent professionals in the East and South next Winter and may leave the California tourneys to get along as best they can. About $35,000 hangs in the balance, for this is the smount which was to have been put wup for the golf jousts in California.

Tiny Lily Harper, the demure 19-year-old miss who is the crown princess of cham- pionship golf in this sector and may be crowned queen tomorrow if she gets to the final in the current mid-Atlantic tourney at Congressional, is a living refutation of the theory that it takes heft and muscle to play winning golf. Lily Harper is a growing girl, but even today, nearing the end of three years of big-time competition, during which she has become nationally fa- mous, she weighs only a little more than 100 pounds and even that pound- age, as one spectator remarked today, is mostly height.
