GOLFERS FEAR WEST COURSE
AT MERTON MORE THAN EAST
IN REHEARSING FOR NATIONAL.
BY SANDY McNIBLICK

| TTHHE galaxy OF stars now scurrying about
j. on the enormous golf arena Of the Mer~
ion Golf Club in rehearsal for the national
next week is decidedly more worried over
the west course than IL is over the east.
only 80 golfers from the huge field of the
country's best talent will qualify on Monday
for the match play. and It will thus take
two very fast rounds 60 squeeze inside the
ropes.
The 'ticklish" shots on the west course
are the main cause of worriment to the Wis
itors
"rd rather play the west course for my
practice rounds than the east" said Sher-
rill sherman, semifinalist last year "A
fellow has got to know the shots over there.
and ! thinl, there will be an awful lot OF
IS and 9s I'm going to put in most of my
time before Monday on the west course"
And the gray-bearded Utica star looked
through his glasses somewhat ruefully at
the last score he had made there.
More Too
j. X. Bole champion of Ohio, was of the
same opinion.
There are an awful lot Of blind shots
over there, and watch them drop strokes on
the creek shots" said Boie.
"The main reason. though. that l think
course is that good golf on the east course
means a good score but good golf on the
west course does not always mean that, in
my opinion"
Another star thought the going would be
about $3.50 the two courses For this
reason he said that he thought the players
would tighten up more on the west course
and take more care for the simple reason
that they cannot see every shot and are
afraid of being deceived by the distances.
"On the east course. though" he said
"a fellow can mostly see what's doing and
has plenty Of space to shoot He will let
himself go and take more chances"
Detroit Course Harder
Most of the players approached on the
subject thought that the Detroit course
where the championship was held last year,
was harder than The Merton course, one rea-
son being that the player had TO bing them
all the time to make the green. The rough
at Detroit was acclaimed to be thick as
to cost shots many times, while at Merton
the rough did not seem to bother the play
ers in the least. Sometimes they walked
right up to n ball and laced 1t with a
wooden club just as far as off the fair.
