Jones -Camnot Match Consistency . By The Aeociated Press, New York, Ieb, 28~In a branci of competition where champions rise and fall with the consistent fre- quency of the tides, Walter Hagen occupies a niche apart in the sphere of golf. Undoubtedly the greatest of America's homebred professionals, this debonair, styllsh and carelessly cpnfident star of the links looms as formidable as ever on the 1925 hori- zon as he tunes his mashie niblick to championship pitch on Florida fairways. Hagen's name is coupled with that of the youthful southerner, Bobby Jones, at the top of the golfing bracket now, but.even the brilllant Georgla stylish cannot match the consistency of his professional rival's record, Ygar in and out, here and abroad, during the past decade, Hagen's achieyements have no par- allel in the annals of the royal and ancient game, Hagen has been fitted for every important open crown of golf in the course of his spectacular march. Twice holder of the American open title, in 1914 and 1919, the dashing product of Rochester, N. Y. links invaded the game's hative strong- holds to lift the British.open crown in 1922 and 1924, while being only a stroke away from the winner in the intervening season, He also captyred the national professional chumplonship last season and re- cently administered a crushing de- feat to Cyril Walker, American open titicholder in a T72-hole battle for the unofficial world’s crown. Hagen finished this match 17 up and 15 to g0, a margin unprecedented for an counter between two high-ranking stars, Tagen's success has heen due more to lis fine competitive tem- perament than to any consistently surpassing brilliancy in shot-making, although he has often shown an un- canny wizardry with his clubs. Mozt of his victories have been bagged through an ability to reach his greatest heights When under fire, to perform coolly at his best when the odds were heaviest, Hagen's finishes in golf have become as famous as Garrison's on the turf years ago. A scason or so ago, little Gene arazen, who sprang to fame and {he open champlonship at Skokie in 1022, scemed about to displace the mighty Hagen. Gene humbfed Wal- ter several times at the latter's fa orite match game but his reign soon was ended by typical Hagen come-back, 3 Collins Takes Up Duty As White Sox Manager Chicago, Feb, 25-—Eddie Collins {embarked today o his duties as manager of the Chigago White Sox when he headed a dbtachment ot players southward to Shreveport, and the team’s spring training cam: Only three players “boarded the train, Catcher Clyde Crouse, First Baseman,Clancy and Collins.
