Who was Ouimet?” Ouimet Made Youngsters Golf Conscious The thundering herd swung back to the voung Bostonian who coolly and calmly holed a 6-foot putt on the final green, through a heavy rain, to tie the two invaders. And the next day the same Ouimet beat the best ball of both men with a 72. The unknown kid against two of the game's greatest It was Ouimet who took golf from the social to the sporting pages. Ouimet made the kids of America golf conscious. A great golfer, a great sportsman and a grand fel- low, Francis Ouimet that afternoon contributed more to golf in certain ways than any one else. Then Walter Hagen came along [ start one of the most spectacular careers any game has ever known. Golf to Hagen has meant a million dollars, but a million dollars to Hagen has been cigarette money Hagen has more than paid the million dollars back that golf has given him. Sarazen Proved Great Stretch Runner And th her e e was the time that an- 20-year-old Gene 88 at Skokie He proved then to be one reatest stretch runners in all golf history. He has lived to that same tradition for 20 years Then we turn back to 1923 at In- wood when a 21-vear-old Georgian by the name of Bobby Jones came to the final hole with a three-stroke lead over game and gallant Bobby Cruickshank. a four-year war vet- | eran from the Black Watch, as T recall it. Bobby needed a 6 on the last hole. Wee Bobby Cruickshank, another great competitor, tied it up with a birdie 3. And only a magnificent iron shot on the final hole next day won the crown for Jones and started him away on the great career of all golf—first or second in eight of nine vears. Since Jack McDermott, who broke the British and Scottish squares for the first time in 1911 and 1912, Ouimet, Hagen, Sarazen and Jones have been the high spots of Ameri- can and the world golf. New Championship Crop Fills Current Meet Since Bobby Jones dropped out and the years caught up with Hagen, there have been no outstanding win- ners beyond Sarazen'’s second victory at Fresh Meadow and Ralph Gul- dahl’s double triumph in 1937 and 1938 Now we come to a new champion- ship crop. meaning those who-never have won before. They include Jimmy Demaret and Ben Hogan, who have won 12 tournaments through the recent winter and E campaigns against the pick of the field—astonishing perform- ances by two of the best. Also Craig ‘Wood, long overdue, who peeled 16 strokes away from par in his last 72-hole start. Also Henry Picard, Sammy Snead, Horton Smith, Light Horse Harry Cooper. Dick Metz Lawson Little, Jimmy Thomson and Paul Runyan. The odds now are that a new ear later, at the age of 21, to| pros again are set to reveal that mere length, and a few traps, don't stop them from busting par. Canterbury happens to have a par of 72 to the round—or 288 for the | quadruple circuit. Yet the boys al- | ready are talking about a winning | score of 285 and possibly better. It | | will be better—in all probability. Interest in “Big Four.” Only one course in recent ,\'ears’ has balked them. That was the| Spring Mill course of the Philadel- | phia Country Club last year, with a par of 69 and a four-round par of 276. | which was eight over “perfect” fig- | ures. But any course with a par of 72 won't withstand the charge of | the shock troops of golf. Here they are talking about the big four of the championship, listed as Byron Nelson, the tall, blond de- | | fending champion, who has been singularly unsuccessful so far this year; Sam Snead, the author of golf’s most expensive and spectacu- lar blowup last year, when he took an 8 on the final hole of the cham- pionship at Philadelphia: Belting Benny Hogan, the Texas mite, who tops all the money winners. and grinning Jimmy Demaret, winner of five of the winter tournaments Yet it's quite possible some hun- gry gent who hasn't been thought of may come sneaking in under the wire. Sam Parks did it in 1935, Tony Manero did it in 1936. The Open championship, which hap- pens to be the toughest tournament in golf to win, is the one where the dope seldom clicks. If a fa- vorite wins, that in itself is news. Putting Will Decide. Among the trio of Washington entrants Lew Worsham, only five vears out of the caddie ranks and keen 22-year-old who has over- weening championship aspirations, looms as the strongest of the lot.| The local lads, overshadowed by the big names of golf, probably aren’t going anywhere. But again they may. You never know to what heights a youngster will rise with the chips down. Worsham rose to the heights in the sectional qualifying rounds at Manor. scoring a last-round 66 to lead the field. Another round like that at Canterbury and he can finish in the money. But he isn't likely to win—or come close. Over such a long course as Can- | terbury the sluggers should be on | top. But all the men who qualify | for the Open can hit the ball a |long way. Again the Open cham- pionship will be decided by the man with a hot putting blade. “If I don’t hole at least two putts of 20 feet and more. I'm not scoring,” | sald Ralph Guldahl. That's the |way it is in this championship. fThere are a hundred men who can | drive and play the irons. But the winner is the man who is knock- ing down those lengthy putts—and not missing the short ones. Charlotte Hall Loses Many Star Athletes Special Dispatch to The Star. CHARLOTTE HALL, Md.

Returned to Texas Loop, Dizzy Still Fans Hope of Winning Way Back to Greatness By the Associated Press. DALLAS, June 5—Ol' Diz Dean's light grew fainter today—sadly, down here in Texas where its glare was blinding just a decade ago. The plodding farm boy who quit the rear ranks of an infantry unit at Fort Sam Houston (San Antonio) 11 vears ago to lend professional baseball his brilliance and eccen- tricities, still fans the flicker re- maining from a stunning career. Diz Dean is back in the Texas League, optioned to Tulsa by the Chicago Cubs. The comeback he “talked” three months ago has died in the muscles of a tired pitching |arm. Not Concerned Over Pay. Diz doesn't have to take the hu- miliating return to the minors. The great right-hander and Mrs have been careful with their money. It isn’t the money—it's the gabby one's heart and pride that will be pitching for Tulsa. Sunday. when the crowd is large, Diz will throw against Fort Worth at Tulsa. Not a man in 10 years has touched his mark of 303 strikeouts in 1931— | the memorable year that saw him win 26 games, lose 10; post an earned-run average of only 153; Dean | pitch 304 innings; work the full nine innings in 28 of his 41 games: finally g0 up to the St. Louis Cards and glory. Only one man, an old-timer named Harry Ables, who struck out 325 batters vears before Dean, has more whiffs to his credit Remember when Diz, in ‘31, wanted to marry Patricia Nash, the present Mrs. Dean, on second base in Hous- ton one night? Well, President Fred Ankenman wouldn't let him. Diz Would Have His Joke. Remember when Ankenman ad- vertised widely that Diz Dean would (hurl on a ladies’ night, almost had a stroke when a “doctor” called at |noon and said Diz would be out 30 days with.e sore arm? Well, Diz bounced into the park 30 min- utes before game time and said the “doctor” was a practical joking friend. Still chuckling, the great ane went out before the biggest crowd of the season and shut out Shreve- port. That's the Dean Fred Ankenman nursed to fame. Says Fred: ‘ “Glad he's back, but I'm glad | some one else has the headache. | He's got too much of & sense of | humor for me!” Maryland Title Golf Listed June 21-23 At Congressional | Plans for the 20th annual Mary. land State amateur golf champio;\-‘ ship. one of the outstanding fixtures on the local links calendar, to be held June 21-23 at Congressjonal, have been announced by Dr. Robert A.

Cub officials also arranged for | Walter (Dutch) Ruether, their West Coast scout, to go to Tulsa to super- 1 vise Dean’s drills and help him work out a sidearm delivery. Ruether was a star sidearm hurler in the | majors for many years. The Cubs also disposed of their other sore-arm pitcher yesterday when they indefinitely suspended Clay Bryant, who has been ailing ever since the 1938 season, when he won 19 games in the Cubs’ march to a pennant. Bryant is going to| Dr. Eugene O'Meara, a Los Angeles muscle expert, for a series of treat- ments. If his arm fails to respond he now plans to return to Chicago and undergo an operation on his el- | bow. 7 Club’s Chances Not Hurt. Owner Phil Wrigley said Bryant | was free to return to the Cubs any- time he desired since his pay was | ordered suspended during his West Coast trip. The departure of Dean and | Bryant figures to have little if any effect on the Cubs’ chances this sea- son. Bryant had pitched no games this season and Dean had won one and had been knocked out four times.

Hogan remained grouped with Snead and Jimmy Demaret at the shortest prevailing odds of 6 to 1, | and after collecting his 70, two un- der regulation figures, put in sev- eral hours of hard work on the prac- tice fairway. Snead and Demaret were among many who did not at- tempt to keep an accurate count of strokes while tuning up. Nelson appeared headed for the 60s yesterday until striking the for- | midable 16th hole—615 yards in length. His third shot went far over the green and he scrambled back for a seven. Two members of his foursome also collected sub-par| | scores—Harold (Jug) McSpaden and Lawson Little, each with 7ls. Guldahl, confident in knowledge j{of the 6933-yard course born of several weeks' consistent practice, turned in a 71 too. but those who had watched him closely during the last week told of other rounds better by several strokes.
