Key West Tennis fans were treated to a second top match in as many months Sunday night at Bayview Park when Gardner Mulloy came from behind to beat his arch-rival, Art Larsen, in a close ‘three-set match 4-6, 6-4, 7-5. j The match featured not only the sharp clear cut!

Larsen, The majority of the three hundred fans seemed to feel that the caliber of tennis on the concrete courts was slightly better than that dis- played by the professional champions Jack Kramer and Frank Sedgman here last month, The colorful Larsen certainly made this the more exciting of the two matches. An appetizer. was given the crowd at 8 p.m. when Gardner Mulloy and Jack Sellers teamed to beat local Navy Lt. Bill Barnes and Art Larsen in a tough one-set ex- hibition which ended at 6-3. Mullov and Larsen follow- ed their singles match with another one set exhibition a- gainst Key West High School Champion Peter Knight and Leo Carey. Mulloy express- ed the expert opinion that Peter and Leo will have a better than fair chance to seriously doubt tney will ever see anything quite like it again, Asked if they aw ere willing to come out boldly and proclaim Hogan the vest of them all, super- jor to Bobby Jones, Walt Hagen, Gene Sarazen and the other greats of the past, they hedge only to the extent of saying the comparison is not entirely fair because of the improvement in equipment. Aside from the pure mechanics of the game, there is no question in their minds. “Ben is much smarter than any. of the old-timers was,” declared one expert who has seen them all for some 30 years. “I mean, of course, that he :s smarter in the way he studies a course and de- cides exactly now te play each hole before a tournament begins. Ben said, himself, after winning this one that he ploutidced hitting the ball right only 30 per cent of the game. “He didn't hit a bad shot in the four rounds, but that was only part of it.

NEW YORK -(#—Last year the Brooklyn Dodgers won only eight of their 22 games. against the New York Giants, and yet they were able to distance the Polo Ground- ers by a comfortable margin be- cause they slaughtered the tail-end Pirates, Braves and Reds, 54 to 11. | NEW YORK (#—There must be a couple of million thwarted golfers in this country, besides me, who have been wondering all these years why it is so tremendously important to follow through.

Why, we would ask our- selves, is it necessary for a player law of averages is against it, and for another the Dodger pilot is convinced that there is more sound strength in the National League's lower bracket than there was a year ago: So, Charlie. reasors that it be- hooves him to take a much firmer stand against’the Giants this time, and that has been uppermost in his mind from the first day he began putting his squad together down in Florida. Every move he has made was aimed primarily at gaining at Teast’ parity with his old pal Leo er. For example, he realized he had to do something drastic about Sal Maglie. The Giant right-hander slapped his lads down six out of eight last season, which might well have proved fatal if other clubs in the league had not curled up and died before the Fiatbushers. “Tell be different this time,’ Charlie promises. “‘If I feel like it T-can toss in six left-hand batters division patsies.

We had about despaired of ever finding the answer, and when the mailman dropped Tommy Ar- mour’s “How to Learn Your Best Golf” on our desk it was with some resignation that we prepared to absorb one more lesson how to follow through. We were not equip- ped for the emotional experience which followed. “You may find to your horror,” says the Grey Scot without warn- ing, “that I never mention or pic- ture the complete follow-through except in discussing bunker shots. That means I’ve ieft out some very graceful and eye-catching pictures I could have used in this book. “But I’m convinced that! any emphasis,on the folicw-through in golf instruction is just oné more thing for the pupil to remember, against that guy, something I couldn’t do last year.
