Golfers Debate Cause Of Mems
Superiority in Driving Power

Chicago, April 1.-THE tremend-
Gus driving ability of Miss Glenna
Collett of Providence on the golf
links as compared to the average
woman golfer has started a discus
sion among golf experts as to why
women cannot drive as far as men.
The forum also mulled the reason
why the best female golfer could not
score as low as the male champions
Some of the rumwators held that the
difference was anatomical, others
that it was muscular, while still 9TH
ers declared the whole difference was
mental.
The anatora.sts contended that

muscularly as Harrison Johnston OF
St. Paul, who can average 500 yards,
or Robert Gardner of Chicago. who
outdrove Guilford in the finals last
summer of the championship. The
difference. they maintained, lay. in
the bone and joint structure. They
cited authorities to the effect that a

pelvis was similarly incapable OF the
strong pivoting, or body twist, that
helps propel the ball, and added that
the wiriness was not SO great in the
female ankle for the foot rock or the
wrist snap. They also pointed to
the straight hips of such experts as
James Barnes, national open cham
pion; Jock Hutchison, British open
champion. and Willie Hunter, British
amateur title holder, and others, as
proof that the straight lines of a man
were more fitted for long driving
than the modulated structure OF
women.
The psychologists based their ar.
guments more on the scores of the
two sexes, as long driving does not
necessarily spell victory in golf. They
held that women with ages Of

Wants More Champs.
After Kearns had managed Demp-
sey to the heights OF the knuckle
bruisers' world, he wasn't satisfied
with just one champion. He aspired
to be the boss of other divisional
kings. And his leisure moments
since then have been directed along
those lines.
Everywhere he's wandered, he has
looked around for 'comers." He has
combed the big towns and the
bushes. He has gone hundreds of
miles out of his way to look at fight
ers who were touted to him as Won
ders. Here and there he has picked
up a few men who looked to him
like certainties in the matter of belt
winning. And yet every last one OF
them have flivvered-and sadly, as
far as championship greatness is con-
cerned.
Marty Farrell a lightweight, was
regarded by Kearns as a certain
middlcweight champion: Marty got
a few fights-and showed up in fear
ful manner. Then came Joe Ben
jamin, hurrahed by Kearns as the
one man in all the world who could
whip Benny Leonard. He was Civ
en- several tryouts against ordinary
gladiators and showed up fairly we'll.
Then he was put to the real test
against Johnny Dundee and was
niftily beaten.
Five Flivvered.
Kearns scooted out to the coast
and picked up a youth named Hy-
mie Gold. known as Oakland Jimmy
Duffy. He carted him east and in-
formed the whole world that at last
he had lightweight wonder. He
gave to Gold all the knowledge that
he could; tutored, trained and con-
ditioned him. Gold, in three fights
since then, suffered two knockou.s
-and has gone back to the old home
town.
This same Kearns picked up Babe

that the kid would become a cham-
pion. He praised him 10 all the

the second rate bantams in the east.
Jim Darcy said Kearns, dis
discussing a middleweight which he
picked up, "is a greater at this time
in his career than Dempsey was at
the same time in his career"
Fighters Are Born.
How funny it sounds in the light
of the present-day events! Dempsey

punches from the day that he dom

other hand, hasn't a sock, is what
you might call uncouth in ring man.
ners and has nothing to recommend
him except ability to take punish
ment and willingness to slug.
If Kearns made Dempsey, why
hasn't he been able to make another
champion in five enthusiastic starts

was Dempsey, but men who were
