SPORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON D. C, JULY 4, 1937—PART ON SPORTS. Holidays Crowd District Links : Opportunity Again Beckoning Tow | EVERY GOLF CLUB STAGING TOURNEY Muny Title Play Due Next Week—Few Here to Play in Amateur Trials. BY W. R. McCALLUM. OHN Q. GOLFER and his missus will step out today and tomor- row over the second big golfing week end of the year and com- pete in a flock of links affairs at all the private clubs. The more demo- cratic golfing brethren will throng the public courses, but they don't put tournaments on at these midiron meadows on holidays. They don't have room for tournament golfers. Here is the schedule of club af- fairs listed over the holiday week end: Columbia Country Club—Best ball, two-ball tourney. Chevy Chase Club—Competition for the Hungarian Cup, 18-hole medal play, seven-eighths handicap to apply. ‘Washington Golf and Country Club —Eighteen-hole medal play sweep- stakes tourney. Congressional Country Club—Today, flag tourney; tomorrow, blind-bogey tournament and 36-hole-medal-play effair. Argyle Country Club—Flag tourna- ment. Beaver Dam Country Club—Presi- dent's Cup, handicap medal play, driv- ing, approaching and putting tourneys for men and women. Indian Spring Country Club—Match play against par. driving, approaching and putting events for men and women. Kenwood Golf and Country Club- BY E. S. TWARDY. Associated Press ports Writer. HEN America’s millions of divot diggers take to the fairways—and to the rough—they are unofficially commemorating the golden anniversary of modern golf in the United States and about the 2300th anniversary of the royal and ancient game's birth, It was not a Scotsman but an inspired, toga-garbed Roman who created the “bug” which was to nip millions after evolution in at least four Old World countries. The Roman—his name is not recorded in history—invented and first played golf about 360 B.C. Seventeen hundred years later Scotsmen went to jail for love of the game which was called paganica in Rome, jeu de mail in France and het kolven and kolf in Holland. Paganica was played on the grassy slopes behind the coliseum Tour-ball, best ball sweepstakes. Manor Country Club—Men's events, match play against par and driving contest; women's events, flag tourney and pitching tourney. Capital Golf and Country Club— Target and driving contest. Army-Navy Country Club—Team match, Army versus Navy, the losers to buy the lunches. Reserve officers are eligible and Professional Dan Bur- ton already has received more than 100 entries, Rippy Publinks Choice. ‘LAUDE RIPPY, public links champ, is set against flying to Ban Francisco in case he qualifies for the national tourney next month, but he’ll be the top liner and strictly the guY to lick in the District municipal links championship a few days hence. The 72-hole tourney to decide the local championship and the team of four men who will represent the Capital in the national title joust at 8an Francisco late in August will be decided at East Potomac Park on July 12 and 13. More than 50 hopeful divot lifters who want to make the team of four will be dead-headed through to San Francisco through the joint efforts of 8. G. Leoffler, grandpappy of public links golf in Washington, radio station WOL and United Air Lines. The United States Golf Asociation permits payment of transportation expenses of contestants in the public links cham- pionship and $6 a day while at the acene of the title tourney. Rippy won the municipal title last |3 year with a record score and moved into the final of the national, where Pat Abbott, the Hollywood redhead, Hcked him. Those who qualified for the cham- pionship last year were: Rippy, Bob , Pat Axtell and Ted Burrows. Entries will close July 9 and are being raceived at Fast Potomac and Rock Creek Parks. D. C. Amateurs Not Interested. NOT %0 fortunate will be the poten- tial contestants from Washing- #on for the national amateur title tourney, to be played at Portland, Oreg., starting August 23. The Simon- pures who qualify won't, if the U. 8. G. A. knows about it, have any part of their expenses paid to the tournament. But it isn't likely that the sectional qualifying rounds to be played at the Pive Farms course of Baltimore Coun- #y Club on July 27 will be over- orowded with entrants from the Capi- %al. It costs a lot of dough to go so far for a licking, which is exactly what the Capital entrants have been getting n the national tournament in recent years. There probably won't be more than four or five entries from Washington in the sectional rounds slated for July 27. And they won't include Roger Peacock, one of the aces of the local amateur brigade, who went to the third round at Cieveland in 1935. Roger is busy making a living and hasn't any time and money for cham- pionship golf these days. With no qualification spot listed in Virginia, most of the entrants from the Do- minion will come up to Baltimore. Tribal Bowl Tourney Starts. MATCH play was to get under way today at Indian Spring in the competition for the Tribal Bowl, one of the major tourneys of the season for Indian Spring members. Pairings follow: J. F. Phelan vs. Perry B. Hoover, D. A. Marquardt vs. E. B. Wagner, Alex Baumgartner vs. J. D. Barn- hardt, John E. Holzberg vs. S. Farrelly, Buddy Sharkey vs. Russell Jewell, N. Y. Pattison vs. Louis Semia, Turner Bmith vs. L. D. Ritter, Jack Robinson vs. Dan Freshman. Eighteen-year-old Billy Shea of Congressional, who won the Middle Atlantic amateur championship a few days ago over his home course, will defend his junior Mid-Atlantic crown at Hillendale this afternoon in a play- off for the title against John Farrell, & Baltimore lad. The pair tied at 153 for the title in the 36-hole tourney at Hillendale last Wednesday. If Billy wins again the title he won at Con- gressional last year, he will be the first 1ad to win both championships in the same year. Tom Ryan stayed away from mar- risge for & good many years, but Dan Cupid finally has stymied the Belle Haven Country Club pro. Tom was married a few days ago to Miss Qrigsby Peck of Norfolk. Mrs, W. R. Bush and Mrs. R. L. Rose paired to win the four-ball match at Congressional, after a tie with Mrs. O. G. Elble and Mrs. Arnold McNitt. Both pairs had a net ,of 845 and the Bush-Rose combine ‘won in the draw. Mrs. C. A. Stewart won the putting tourney with 32 putts.

AT KENWOOD TODAY Eight Scheduled to Play in Two Matches—Virginia Pope Wins Flag Tournament. ‘WO exhibition matches starring eight of our better-known pros will brighten today for members of Ken- wood Golf and Country Club. Wiffy Cox, Kenwood pro, will pair with Roland MacKenzie of Congres- sional in a match against Bob Barnett of Chevy Chase and CIiff Spencer of Beaver Dam. The first-named pair won a similar match at Beaver Dam last Sunday, 1 up. Another match will find District open champion George Diffenbaugh pairing with Al Treder of Manor against Mel Shorey of East Potomac Park and Leo Walper. Virginia Pope won a flag tourney at | 5rey Kenwood, playing her final shot to the eighteenth fairway. She scored 86 with a 9 handicap. Mrs. R. P. Huff was second, hitting her final shot into the cup on the seventeenth green, while Mrs. J. C. Dale was third, play- ing her last stroke to & spot 1 foot from the cup on the seventeenth.

It achieved wide popu- larity and soon spread over the Alps into France. The French used the same kind of ball but daintier “sticks.” The Dutchmen were infected by the French. In the Summer it was kolf. In the Winter it was played on ice and called het kolven. In the fifteenth century Parlia- ment took action against a new game which was sweeping Scotland. A law was passed in 1457 which provided that any Scotsman caught digging a divot would be forced to replace the divot under police sue pervision and then would be jailed. The Scots voiced strenuous objec- tion, and in 1491 the ban was lifted and “gof,” “gouff” or “gowfl” flourished. The Paganica method was dropped; instead of using up- right sticks for “goals,” the Scots dug holes. Soon after the repeal of golf pro- hibition the now famous St. An- drews golf course was born. But it ‘was 263 years later that it expanded to allow club privileges. Meahwhile the “goff,” ‘“goufr” or “gowfl” nomenclature was dropped and the game became known simply as “golf.” The balls — “featheries” — orig- inated by the Romans, were sup- planted by new gutta-percha pills, designed to stand up longer under early Scotch hooking and slicing. One century later golf made its first appearance in the New World. It was in 1659 that the authorities at Fort Orange—now Albany, N. Y.—prohibited the playing of golf in the town streets. This was a move to protect the windows of shopkeepers and the shins of pe- destrians. About the same time several Southern aristocrats whiled away Sunday afternoons by putting “IN 1888 YONKERS SPORTED THE FIRST GOLF COURSE. IN THE UNITED STATES, - 6 HOLES~ around specially built greens. The first modern golf in the United States dates from around 1887. America's first real golf course, however, was built in 1888—a 6-hole affair behind the home of John Reid in Yonkers, N. Y. It was called the St. Andrews Golf Club of Yon- kers. Reid and five other men of Scotch descent fostered the enter= prise. Two years later the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club, Long Island, started as a 9-hole course with 40 members. It developed to 12 holes and then to 18—a new high. Within a few years courses sprang up at Chicago, Brookline, Mass., and at Newport, R. 1. The first national tournament was held in 1894 at Yonkers. William G. Lawrence won with a snappy 188 for 36 holes. A few months later another national tournament was held at Newport. L. B. Stoddard Links Game, 2,300 Years Old, Was Invented by Roman, Not Scotsman W ~ano NOwW LOOK AT ‘EM /! nosed out Charles B. MacDonald to win the championghip, this one at match play. The resultant controversy—be- tween Lawrence and medal play and Stoddard and match play— ended with the formation of the Amateur Golf Association. Nothing more was ever heard of William G. Lawrence when the asso- ciation decided it would follow in the footsteps of Scotland’s St. An- drews and not Yonkers’ St. Andrews, naming match play for champion- ship tournaments. Six years later the gutta-percha ball was replaced by a new rubber- cored affair that went farther, lasted longer and cost less; manufacturers placed as many as six different kinds of clubs on the market; women," long-skirted and dainty, trod the fairways: the A. G. A. ruled supreme —and no one remembered it was a long-dead Roman who started it all.

In two years William Neville Reynolds, youthful high school player, progressed from the embryonic stages of a mere tyro to become, in 1937, the out- standing school player in the District of Columbia. Born at Omaha, Nebr., October 11, 1919, William Reynolds attended | graded schools in Chicago and Qmaha. | His early high school vears were spent | ] at Central High in Omaha and in February, 1935, William acquired a knowledge of the rules of chess at | the Omaha Y. M. C. A. In the Omaha interhigh matches during early 1936, William was sched- uled to play No. 1 board for his school, but he left Nebraska and came to Washington, in April, 1936, to enroll as a student at the local Central High School. WILLIAM N. REYNOLDS, His ability as a chess player merited him No. 2 position on the strong Cen- tral Chess Club team in the Winter tourney of 1936, and in the 1937 Spring interhigh tournament he was Central's star player, captaining the quintet that won the I. 8. Turover Chess Trophy for the third consecu- tive time in official tournament play. “Bill” triumphed over his team- mates to win the championship of Central High. He was elected presi- dent of the Central Chess Club and president of the Washington Inter- high Chess Association, which em- braces the six leading schools in the | 5 Nation's Capital. Competing in individual match play against the more mature champions of the Omar Khay- yam Chess Club of George Washington University, Mon- trose Chess Club and Procure- ment Division Chess Club of the Treasury, “Bill” defeated them all.

HETHER Bob Tow's ring career finally is slated to flicker or again follow the pattern of past perform- ances and sputter after apparently making some headway in this busi- ness of rearranging the features may be determined Tuesday night at Griffith Stadium when the Alexandria heavyweight bumps into Jorge Brescia, swarthy South American, in a 10« round feature bout. Tow, who was considered a promis- ing “white hope” after capturing a Chicago elimination tourney many months ago, faded like a gardenia in a Turkish bath shortly thereafter, but recently he revived the hopes of his followers with knockout victories over Eddie Mader and Sandy McDonald. Brescia Tough Pickings. JOW Mader and McDonald, re- cently at least, haven't been a cused of possessing too much abilit but nevertheless they are considered worthy foes for guys who are hitting the comeback trail. Brescia, how- ever, is talented enough to give any heavyweight in the business some anxious moments He demonstrated that effectively against Joe Louis before the Brown Bomber won the world heavyweight championship. Jorge was kayoed in the third round, but not until he had clipped Joseph with & very authori= tative right which threatened to drop Louis. Brescia was knocked out technically by Harry Thomas in a preliminary to the Louis-Braddock battle for his sece ond loss since irvading this country, That strictly was a fluke, however, since both bo; continued fighting after the bell in the third round, with the result that Brescia wound up on the floor. Jorge kept swinging after the bell and Thomas planked a haymaker on his jaw in Lh(‘ unscheduled melee. Louis Soresi, la’s manager, then demanded mp referee award the bout to Jorge, but the arbiter refused. Soresi would not allow Brescia to come out of his corner for the fourth round, so the referee presented the bout to Thom: s 0 other loss Louis and amo the has whipped are Hans Frankie Connelly, Abe Feldman and Marty Gallagher. The year-old Argentine is regarded as one of the most promising young heavyweights in the business round semi-final Vitto- rio Venturi, brother of a currer lightweight sensation, Enrico, will stack up against Sammy Meadows, rugged New York welterweight A trio of six-rounders list Buddy Scott, local light heavyweight, facing Larry Shuck of New York; RA“ Baile; Florida light-heavy, meeting Mickey Flannagan of iPttsburgh, and Mur- rary Kanner, local heavyweight, trad- ing blows with Van Meer of Cumber- land, Md In a four-round opener, slated to get under way at 8:30 o'clock, George Abrams, highly-regarded local middle- Flannagan of Pittsburgh, and Mur- of Baltimore, was fighter d Detroit Entries for Tomorrow.
