SPOKRTS. McLeod CROWN WON N BY COLUMBIA VET Tourney Play Begun in ’03 by Fred—Chance in Test Here Held Good. BY W. R. McCALLUM. HE little guy may not qualify. He hasn’t been up there among the hot golfing boys for a few years, but if Fred McLeod does make the grade in the coming sec- tional trials for the national open golf championship at Chevy Chase he'll be just about the oldest competitor in the tournament at Detroit starting dune 10, not only in years, but in championships in which he’s played. It will be Freddie's thirty-fourth national open, which is quite a stretch of vears for any guy in cham- pionship competition. ‘Wins Title in 1908. ACK in June, 1903, a fresh-faced, grim-jawed little Scotsman, new from North Berwick, stepped on the first tee at the Baltusrol Golf Club of Short Hills, N. J. It was Fred McLeod, fresh from his postman’'s duties in Scotland, just come to this country as a professional. That 1903 championship had 89 entries and Wil- lie Anderson, one of the stalwarts of those far-off days, won the title with 307. Contrast that tourney with the one this year, which has 1,300 entries, and last year's championship over that same Baltusrol course, where Tony Manero won with 282, just 25 shots below Anderson’s winning total. Fred didn't win that 1903 title, but five years later he did win, at swanky Myopia, near Boston, where he tied with Willie Smith in a half- gale and won in the play-off. In those days, as now, McLeod was at his best in a wind. He literally hit ’em “under the wind,” just as he does today. Fred hasn't figured much in the championship in recent years. He hasn't qualified for the cham- pionship proper recently, but he still has plenty of sting left in his game. If they have wind out there at Chevy Chase on June 1 he can make the grade again, for no man in the land knows more about playing in a breeze than the grizzled little Scot. Ties Hagen for Second. E HASN'T been close to winning the open since 1921, when the U. S. G. A. dumped the title tourney right in his lap at Columbia. That year, over a course where he knows every blade of grass, Fred finished with 298, nine shots behind Jim Barnes, the tall Cornishman, who spread-eagled the field with 289. Every one thought Fred had won second place until Walter Hagen, the “Old Duke,” came along. Haig lined up a 30-foot putt, rapped it, and the ball went in for a 3 to tie Mc- Leod. There won't be any more open ¢hampionships for Fred McLeod. The parade has gone past him, as it has gone past all those old-timers of 20 and 25 years ago. But when it comes to picturesqueness and ability to make golf shots of the right kind in the right place you won't find any one in the field like the old master from Columbia. He always had everything it takes but a big wallop from the| tee. Give him that today and he'd still be in there with the leaders. | Lots of folks would like to see Fred McLeod qualify for the open. and the U. S. G. A. could do a good thing by making all former open champions automatically eligible without qualify- | ing. But they haven't gotten around to that yet, REVISE JUDGES’ LIST FOR PUPPY EXHIBIT 0ld Dominion Kennel Club Will Stage Show Next Saturday at Arlington. Old Dominion Kennel Club | announces a revised list of judges for its first puppy match of the sea- son, which is scheduled to take place tomorrow at 2 o'clock at 956 North Glebe road, Arlington, Va. The best male and female puppies in the show will be judged by Carey Lindsay of Baltimore. Marie Louise ‘Welch. also of that city, will sort out | the gun dogs, while Bill Ring of Chester, Pa,, will judge all hounds and toy dogs. Working dogs will be Judged by Stewart Lindsay of Owings Mill, Md. H. M. Barclay of Wash- ington will judge the terriers, and Bertha Birney of Aspin Hill, Md, will judge the non-sporting breeds, Beveral prospective owners of pure bred dogs have signified their inten- tion of visiting this show, which has come to be a regular fixture in this district. Puppy matches provide a good opportunity for looking over the various breeds available in a given territory. They form an occasion for a good get-together with the fillip of competition but none of that bit- ter rivalry often engendered by li- censed shows. They provide an op- portunity for training puppies with &how prospects in ring manners. Silver cups will be given to the best male and best female puppy in each group and to the best male and best, female puppy in the show. Regular American Kennel Club ribbons for first, second and third place winners in the various breeds will be awarded to contenders. Entry fee is 50 cents for each puppy, and post entries will be accepted until 2 o'clock. i Griffs’ Records 2 o 2 R S e Y1 9 ) amBEeES00s e o 2 1909 = 1o b CECESRES e OODDG DI D DI S 1D DRI Eimmons.

EW YORK, May 21 (#)—Al- though pressed closely by five | other players in both leagues, Carl Hubbell was big league base ball's “star of the month” in the open= ing 30-day period of the season. The Giants’ great left-hander was named five times during the month in the daily Associated Press daily list of “yesterday’s stars,” one more than each of his nearest rivals—his teammate, Dick Bartell; Van Mungo of the Dodgers, the Cardinals’ Ducky Medwick and Dizzy Dean and the Detroit Tigers’ Gerry Walker. A total of -17 players from both leagues were mentioned three or more times. Mungo, the No. 1 “star” of 1936, started off well enough, but faded his last two times out.

A der, of the Gompers Lodge team, today is the owner of the Shah Trophy, by virtue of his victory last night at Convention Hall, where he shot a 370 gross score to top the effort of 38 other bowlers who had qualified to shoot in the eighth annual special event. Aided by a 33-pin handicap, Sny- | der finished three pins in front of the veteran Charley Phillips of King David Lodge, who shot 358-9 for a 367 total.

HOYAS, TERRAPINS INVADING MIDDIES Base Ball With Georgetown, Track With Maryland Feature Tomorrow. NNAPOLIS, Md, May 21.— Base ball with Georgetown and track with Maryland hold the high places on Navy’s sport bill for Saturday, the last big offering in that line for the present season. The base ball series between George- town and the Navy began well over a half century ago, and only a few times has the Navy team been able to score & win. Though the Navy has won five of the six last games, it appears hardly equal to the task of stopping the fast Hilltoppers. Frank McKay and Jerome Bruckel, the Navy’s two best moundsmen, likely are to divide the game. Central Is Lacrosse Foe. JEPWIN Miller, high jumper; Frank Cronin, in the quarter mile and pole vault, and Bill Guckeyson in the prelim and weight events look to be winners for Maryland. The Navy, wiih Jack Dalton, should take both of the sprints and probably has a somewhat better balanced team. The District also will furnish the opposition in the plebes’ closing lacrosse game, with Central High sending its team to Annapolis.

C., matched with Mrs. Frank Goldthwaite of Fort Worth, who won the Southern in 1933 as Aneila Gor= czyca. Mrs. Chandler, in explaining why she likes medal play, said: “I've heard medal play all my life.” “If I'm playing medal golf, I'm able to concentrate much better. In match play each hole seems to be a closed chapter, and you lose the continuity— or at least I do. I believe a few medal- play tournaments would improve wom- en’s golf generally.” Her father is Frank Lewis, an or- ganizer of golf in Texas and the Lone Star State's first champion.

Particularly in medal play, so the gents who write about nerve strain and the psychology of golf have it, the tension in the playing of the game keys a guy up until he can't relax. Well, listen to this one about the guy they call the “Iron Man.” Maybe it's because of stunts like this that they've pinned that monicker on Martin F. McCarthy, golf chairman at Beaver Dam, and one of the better clubswingers around the Capital. Martin is in the ofl business, which has nothing to do with his golf, but does have a part in this yarn. Now Marty, tough hombre that he is in a golf way, had played the first nine in | the Manor Club tournament in 40 | whacks, putting him in a bad spot if he was to qualify for the first flight, and the first flight is where he belongs. He's that kind of golfer. He set forth on a grim chase after par on that second nine, knowing that only the shrewdest kind of shetmaking would en- able him to make the top flight, and for four holes of the in nine he clung right along with Old Man Par. The pair ahead were slow and Martin sat down to wait at the thir- | teenth tee. Suddenly he recalled that | Jack Daily had said his oil-burner | wasn't functioning just right and that | he (Jack) had asked Martin if he wouldn't send a service man out to look at it. JACK'S home i5 located not more than a chip shot away from the thirteenth tee, and there was the match ahead slowing up, and Martin had to wait. “Why not fix up Jack's oil burner?” thought Martin. | “I have to wait anyway and I might as well kill two birds with one rock.” So the “Iron Man" dove into the basement of the Daily mansion, turned & couple of screws, set a couple of gadgets, told Mrs. Daily her oil burner was 0. k. and proceeded to play the next five holes in better than par to win second place in the medal round. | “Yep, it certainly proves how tense this game of golf gets a guy like Martin when the pressure is really on him.” cracked Pop Steward. “Did you notice how frazzled his nerves were that he could fix up a furnace and | then go out and play better-than-par golf?” | But He Was Licked. IT WOULD be a better yarn if Martin could be in there scratching away at the J. Webster Manning trophy today, | but he isn't. He got himself licked by | blond Everett Johnson yesterday by & 2-and-1 score, and today Johnson clashed with long, lean Bill Harvey, the 1937 edition of Jim Barnes, who can putt almost as well as Jim could | when the Cornishman was in his | prime. The other semi-final found Claude Rippy, the slender clothing | salesman, matching shots with Russ Hollebaugh, who peddles golf equip- | ment for the same outfit Rippy left a few days ago. But before McCarthy was knocked | out of the tournament he put on a little more of that “iron man" stuff. | He licked Harry Pitt by 7 and 5, which is something that hasn't been done by any man in 15 years or so. He only played the first nine (par 35) in 32| shots, which made a total of 66 for two | C-3 Is Planning to Make Thirty-Fourth Bid in Open Golf Play consecutive nines, his last qualifying nine and his first match-play nine. I guess that'’s why they named him “Iron Man” years ago, and it has nothing to do with furnaces either. Russ Hollebaugh, even if he doesn’t win the tourney, did a notable piece of work in licking Bobby Brownell, the District champ, on his own play- ground. They don't do that every day in the week. Nor do they lick Volney Burnett as Claude Rippy licked him yesterday. More Weird Stuff. BUT for weird stuff you won't find 80 much of it watching the first flighters. They stick to orthodox stuft and don't often play their shots by way of Rockville and Alexandria, There was the case of Bobby (Hot) Marks, for example, in his second flight match against J. S. McBryde of Manor. They named Bobby “Hot” some years back on the public links because he did so many uncanny stunts. And he got right back in the old groove at Manor. On the eleventh < | —a water hole—he hit a high iron shot which carried smack into the drink, and with some weird twist hopped out on the bank. Bobby said the ball had no right to get out of the frog-pond at all. McBryde put his tee shot on the green. And then Bobby stepped up and smacked his approach shot into the cup to win the hole. Bobby hit another one something 1ike it on the seventh, but you wouldn's believe it, so I'll lay off. It also won the hole. OVER at Chevy Chase the women of the club were playing today in the semi-final round of the tourney for the French High Commission Cup, with Mrs. Bishop Hill opposing Mrs. Y. E.
