King : New York Monopolizes National Golf REVOLTA' IRONS VANQUISH ARMOUR Veteran Is Beaten, 5 and 4, by Boy Three-Putting Once in 172 Holes. BY TOM YARBROUGH, Associated Press Staff Writer. KLAHOMA CITY, October 24. —Johnny Revolta, who play- ed his first golf with clubs made of broomsticks. ruled @s king of the Professional Golfers' Association today. His sceptre, a magic-touched put- ter that needed three strokes on but one green of the 172 he covered, the curly-haired Milwaukee youth drove the graying Tommy Armour from the final yecterday, 5 and 4, with a relent- less bombardment of par. Armour, flying the colors of the old guard of golf, was not surprised that he fell before the remarkable short game of his 24.year-old antag- onist. Long before the final match ended, the veteran Tommy said, with a hopeless gesture, “what can any man do against a short game like that boy has?” Because Armour’s hair, once coal | black, is becoming silver streaked, and because he has won the big prizes of golf from A to Z :n 15 years of cam- paigning, his contest with the spry Revolta was billed as a struggle of age versus youth. And Tommy got around to that point in the 19th hole amenities. “It Just goes to show that you can depend on youth to take care of you,” he smiled—one way or another.” "DEFEATING Walter Hagen in the first round gave me the confi- dence that carried me through.” Re- volta said. “This is an anniversary present for my wife, and jncidentally I'm rather pleased with it.” “The Silver Scot” was ahead with his tee shots consistently in the final match, but when Revclta got within | 100 yards of the green he was in- | vincible, and on the carpet itself, deadly. Revolta had a brilliant 33, two | under par, on the morning out nine, while Armour carded a 37. This put Revolta three up, and he incerased the lead as the day wore on. He ended the first 18 with even par“‘ four up, and widened the margin to six up by the end of the 27th, parring the third nine while Armour required another 37. Although Revolta’s chip- ping and putting were outstanding, ! the match brought no single sensa- | tional shot, nothing like a 40-foot | putt nor a hole-out from off the green. Armour, six down and six to go, kindled a brief hope for himself by | taking the 31st when Revolta wasted | one in trees and momentarily lost his | putting touch. But Revolta promptly laid his next tee shot within 12 feet of the pin on a par three, and took his par safely for the half and the match.

There is far more luck in the game than there used to be—luck from passes that are barely caught tip. “Luck in modern foot ball plays a far bigger part than it played years ago. Just one or two lucky breaks in a foot ball game can make a big differ- ence—maybe 14 or 20 points.” . The Brief Interval. I RECALL, some 25 years or more ago, when the Army called on Joe Beacham of Cornell and West Point, then an Army coach, to beat Yale in October and Navy in November. “We can beat Yale in October or Navy in November,” he said. “We can't co both. Which is your main objective?” Col. Beacham had the answer. Few teams can have several ob- Jectives and reach them all. Not unless they have super material or easy schedules. For cvample, this season Ohio State has a brilliant coach, exceptional ma- terial, but no schedule that even compares with that of Notre Dame, Army, Navy, Rice, S. M. U, Santa Clara, California, Texas Christian, Louisiana State, or several other leading teams. Ohio State doesn’t meet rurdue, Minnesota or Iowa, three of the four stronger Western Conference teams. 5 Outside of Notre Dame, Ohio State’s main opponent will be Illinois, outclassed in man- power, despite Zuppke’s surpris- ing victory a year ago. It's the pressure week after week that wears most of them down. And this continued pressure can make a killing difference to any foot ball team. Schedules write one of the main storles of any foot ball season.

NNAPOLIS, Md, October 24.— ‘With the Notre Dame game, in Baltimore, but two days away, Navy's coaching staff concentrated today on perfecting a “shock troop” system, which will throw two com- plete teams against the Ramblers alternately. Head Coach Tom Hamilton de- cided his two varsity aggregations were so nearly equal in ability that he would follow this plan, which heretofore has been in the experi- mental stage. The Middies were on the field until after dark last night, battling the plebe team, which ran off vari- ous Notre Dame plays. The ends and backs were put through a stiff tackling drill. Arrangement Held Likely to Draw Squawks From Other Sections. BY W. R. McCALLUM. OR the first time in two decades, one sector of the land is going to have a monopoly on all the major golf championships in 1936. And the squawks that will arise from the West and Middle West will be loud and long next year as the folks out in the open spaces see all the national golf spectacles center- ing around New York City. The United States Golf Association already has announced the venues of the national open and the national amateur, and soon will make public the spot where the women’s title tourney will be played. All the major championships will be decided next year within a few minutes’ automo- bile drive of downtown Manhattan, a little matter that will be swell for the divot lifters who make their home in or near the metropolis, but won't sit so well with the girls and boys who have to travel far and long to get bumped off. Baltusrol Gets Open. 'HE open championship will be played at Baltusrol, at Short Hills, N. J, pot a long drive for Newark, which is 40 minutes by the tube from Manhattan. This tournament, as usual, will be played in June. Then,| ! along in early September, the amateur title tourney for Lawson Little's crown dition-bound Garden City Golf Club, one of America's older golf courses, with its short eighteenth hole played over an immense water hazard. Both these tournaments already have been announced. But in addition, it looks as if the women’s championship will | be played at Cherry Valley, just a couple of good brassie shots from the | Garden City course down on Long Island, which will be something never | done before in the way of holding two major championships at the same town in the same year. The women's title tourney ordinarily is played before the men's amateur, but next year it may be played later, about the third Coast Stages Amateur in '37. | TTHIS vear, if you can call Pitts- burgh in the West, all the cham- plonships were west of the moun- tains.
