In recent years no the usual thing. but his chances seem no better than qualities in match play competition, Paul Runyan, Harold McSpaden and staying power and ex»xrnugh good golf, Guldahl Has Stamina. RALPH GULDAHL is making his first P. G. A. bid. As he has not been tested in match play I find it difficult to form a line on him, but he can keep going with the ease of a marathon runner and that’s a big help in this event. Leo Diegel was the last pro to win puccessive P. G. A’'s—1928 in Balti- more and 1929 in Los Angles. The latter win was most remarkable, &s he was responsible for the tourna- ment being played on the West Coast and had as much to do with the man- ezement of the event as he did as a eompetitor. Since then the title has traveled ound like bad news Tommy Armour in 1930, Tom Creavy in 1931, Olin Dutra in 1932, Gene Sarazen in 1933, Paul Runyan in 1934, Johnny Revolta in 1935 d Shute last year. However, Sarazen has a double, as be also won back in 1923, I remember that more vividly than Gene does. He beat me on the thirty- eighth hole at Pelham. It was one of the most remarkable holes in my experience. Gene's drive on the thirty-eighth— actually the secand hole, of course— was at one time out of bounds, as it cut through the branches of a tree on the other side of the fence outside Pelham. Freak Shot Beats Him. NOMEHOW it carried through the tree and came back on the course, but in the heavy rough. My drive was Just short of the green, but with a bunker to pitch over. I put my second in the bunker, try- Ing to play it t00 neat. But I recov- ered and nearly holed out for a 3. My ball stopped on the edge of the cup. I felt sure of a half, for Gene was buried in the tall grass. But you never can tell about Gene. He played out to the green and holed his putt to beat me. I never forgot that disappointment. In fact, I recall that a lot more vividly than the five times I won the | t:tle—four times running (1924-5-6-7). 1 first won it in 1921, by an eyelash, finally beating out Joe Turnesa in the final, 1 up. Unfortunately, my South American tour prevents me from competing this time, but I'm watching it closely and T'll hear plenty of later laments from the boys. Sometimes the margin of victory or defeat is no wider than a blade of grass. (Copyright, 1937. Reproduction in whole o7 in Dart prohibited without permission.)

(#)—William Tell, the apple-splitting bow and arrow marksman of legendary fame, would have stiff competition from modern rifle team sharpshooters at the Uni- versity of Missouri. Tiger varsity marksmen won all but 6ix of their 78 contests. Co-eds were victorious in all 21 matches fired— Wwhich wasn't so difficult, as Blanche Boyd shot perfect scores in every match, College Gol. Richmond, 7: Virginta. SMALL group of midiron wielders at Columbia are look= ing forward to the coming week end when one of the tournaments that mean nothing to any other club but always get a laugh at Columbia is due to start. It's the 1937 inaugural of the event for the Cummings trophy, or the two-man team championship of the club. The kidding already has gotten under way and from the tone of the conversation that is going the rounds of that new and swanky grill room the boys are catching up with their joshing for a whole year. THE cup is named after Cy Cum- mings, the squire of Cummings Lane, who some years back made an idle threat which the boys took seri- ously; to wit: That the good squire @ g FEN would put up a cup to settle once and for all each year the best two-ball duo in the club. After Miller Stevinson and Donald Woodward won for a few years it got to be regarded as their exclusive property, until Albert Mac- Kenzie and Luther Steward, jr., whacked the title-holders. And now Craig McKee, the tall pine from Iowa, and Dana Belser, the silent man from Atlanta, hold the mug. Several of the club’s most ambitious pairs will gather Sunday to qualify for the right to challenge McKee and Belser. Among the potential chal~ lengers will be Stevinson and Wood- ward, all of which leads to the thought of how small are the deeds of man. Four years ago they were the high and mighty champs. Today they are just challengers. But challengers with a chance to win again, Manor Qualifying On.

By the Assoctated Press. TLANTA, May 19.—Sun-tan- .ned, freckled Mrs. Mark Mc- Garr; bidding her second successive Southern women's A golf championship, figures the essential ingredient of a winning game is nerve. Forced to the twenty-fourth hole yesterday in a match that tied the record for extra-hole play in the tour- nament, she pointed to that contest | with tenacious Mrs. R. E. Winger, | broad-shouldered Texan, to demon- strate the point. “I think it was just nerve that got me the birdie that won that hole,” she said with a grin. In the third round today Mrs. Mc- Garry was matched against Deane Van Landingham, Tall Charlotte, N. C., player, who eliminated Jane Coth- ran of Greenville, S. C.,, 2 up, in the only upset yesterday. Two Favorites Clash. THE match that drew the gallery today, however, was that between Kathryn Hemphill of Columbia, S. C,, and Marion Miley of Lexington, K: two favorites. Both are slim, dark- haired and hard hitters. Both were | semi-finalists in the national last year Only Minnesota, Michigan Will! and they're good pals on and off the course. Miss Hemphill, who eliminated Martha Daniel of Rome, Ga., 3 and 1, shot a 76 yesterday, which was a bet- ter medal score than Miss Miley scored in defeating Mrs. Elsie Haynes of ‘Washington, D. C, 5 and 3. Two high - school - age youngsters, Betty Jameson of San Antonio, Tex., and Dorothy Kirby of Atlanta, con- tinued to draw attention. Miss Jameson, who won the Southern in 1934, defeated Mrs. George Sherill of Atlanta, 6 and 5, to pair with Frances Owen of Jacksonville, Fla. Miss Kirby, 1935 sefi-finalist, clashed with Mrs. Sam Israel of New Orleans. Test for Helen Dettweiler. ANOTBER tough match impended between Mrs..

By the Assoctated Press 'HICAGO, May 19.—Sid Richardson and Northwestern had everything in the way of Big Ten golf honors to- day, with swell prospects of hanging onto them for a few years. The Wildcats, who caught up with both individual and team trophies yes- terday for the first time, may not set up any such spectacular run of tri- umphs as Michigan’s five-year parade in both divisions, but they look good for one or both crowns as long as Richardson remains in action. Richardson, a sophomore, brought his first year of intercollegiate com- petition to a rousing climax yesterday by giving Northwestern its first in- dividual championship with a 72-hole soore of 301 strokes. With a back- ground of having been good enough to win the Western junior title last year, and qualify for a Chick Evans caddy scholarship at Northwestern, he will be difficult to dislodge during the next two years. Richardson shot T4—T4—18—15. Bill Kostelecky, Northwestern’s cap- tain, placed second, with 304, while John David, husky Purdue sophomore, was third, with 307, and Bill Ploetz, Wisconsin, fourth, with 308. Northwestern gained its first team title since 1925, with a four-man ag- gregate of 1,244 strokes. Michigan was second, with 1,253. HAIG CONSPICUOUS BYP.G.A ABSENCE Only Big Gun Missing From Tournament Starting at Pittsburgh Monday. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, May 19.—All of the “big names” of professional golf except Walter Hagen will be on hand next Monday for the annual P. G. A. champion- ship at the Pittsburgh Field Club. “The Hal named non-playing captain of this year's American Ry- der Cup team, will miss both the pro tourney, which he has won five times, and the United States open next month at Birmingham, Mich. He has been playing in Australia and will join his team in England for the matches with the British June 29 and 30. The two national champions of 1936 top the 116-man field. One is Denny Shute, modest, quiet-spoken veteran from Massachusetts, who won the P. G. A. at Pinehurst last No- vember. The other is Tony Manero, the crisp-hitting New York-born campaigner who, since he took the open title at Baltusrol last June, also has moved his bag of clubs to Mas- sachusetts. Shute Seeks Trophy. ‘HOUGH the 64 low scorers in the two-day, 36-hole qualifying round will be eligible for the match play starting on Wednesday, actually only 63 positions will be available. Shute is competing in the preliminary test merely because he has a chance at the Alex Smith Memorial Trophy, which goes to the low man and, as defending champion, is automatically eligible for the man-to-man combat. Besides Shute, the of the eight previous P. G. A. tour- neys will be on hand. Tops on the list is Gene Sarazen, who won in 1922, 1923 and 1933; Johnny Revolta, winner in 1935; Paul Runyan, 1934; Olin Dutra, 1932; Tommy Armour, 1930, and Leo Diegel, 1928 and 1929. The only winner since 1928 who will not compete is Tom Creavy, who beat Shute for the title in 1931 at Provi- dence, R. I. Of the former champions, only Armour, who is ineligible, as he was born in Scotland, and Diegel do not figure in this year's American Ryder Cup picture. Shute, Sarazen and Re- volta already have been chosen for the team, together with Henry Picard, Tony Manero and Horton Smith, also P, G. A. contenders. Battle for Cup Team. UNYAN and Dutra have to fight for 4 vacancies with 11 of the best home-bred pros in the country. Only one of this latter group, Ray Mangrum, did not quality to compete at Pittsburgh. The others are Jimmy | Hines, Ed Dudley, Ky Laffoon, Dick Metz, Ralph Guldahl, Byron Nelson, Sam Snead, Craig Wood, Vic Ghezzi | and Harold (Jug) McSpaden. The 36-hole P. G. A. qualifying play l is the first part of the Ryder Cup elimination. The four to go abroad will be chosen on the basis of low | average scores in this and the 72 holes of the United States open at Birmingham, Mich., June 10 to 12.

By the Associated Press. HEN a team favored to win the pennant loses its first 10 games and continues in last place with only 4 victories in 22 starts, something or some one is bound to give. In the celebrated case of the Balti- more Orioles the giver was General Manager Jack Ogden. He gave Guy Sturdy, the Orioles’ manager, his un- conditional release, last night as his first step toward bringing the Orioles out of the International League cellar. Ogden claims he has selected Stur- dy’s successor. He will withhold an- nouncement of his identity until later this week, however. Baltimore finished fourth last year and defeated Rochester in the first half of the play-off series. Sturdy, manager of the Orioles since mid- season in 1934, was charged with mismanagement of the club by Max Bishop, former Oriole, last Winter. Judge Kenesaw M. Landis investigated the affair this Spring, but gave no ruling. The Orioles lost their eighteenth Wednesday Thursday and Friday TWO OPTICAL SPECIALS Save 259, to 509 game yesterday to the Buffalo Bisons, 8-3. Failure of the Orioles hurlers to cash in on the hitting done by the outfielders—Puccinelli, Abernathy and Wright—has been one of the biggest reasons for their startling drop. R MRS. MOODY RETARDED Back Hurt Again, but She Thinks It Is Just Stiff Muscle. BERKELEY, Calif, May 19 (#).— Recurrence of a back injury, which forced her to default a national sin- gles final match to Helen Jacobs in 1933, kept Mrs. Helen Wills Moody from returning to competitive terhis today. The former tennis queen withdrew from the California State tennis championships, where she was en- tered in mixed doubles. “I think it's just a stiff muscle and shouldn’t cause any trouble if I take care of it,” said Mrs. Moody. “It did not result from playing tennis but apparently from lifting something heavy. “It will be only a matter of a few days before the injury clears up, but of course it would have to happen now.” .
