BRADY RECEIVED BAD
NEWS AFTER TITLE WIN

DETROIT. Aug. 26.-Mike Brady,
professional at the Oakland Hills
Club, yesterday captured the West.
ern open golf championship. He
had a total for the seventy.two
holes Of 2s1, ten strokes better than
his closest competitors, Jock
Hutchison and Laurie Ayton, the
Chicago professionals, who tied for
second place at sol.
The Joy which success brought
to Brady was accompanied by
sorrow, however. After escaping
the admiring host about the eight
eenth green. Brady, on entering
the clubhouse, was handed a mes
sage from his wife informing him
of the death Of her sister In Bos-
ton, one week after Mrs. Brady's
father had passed away.

Such conduct Is golf heresy where
Jock came from, but II shows the
difference in the way we do things,
and reflects, psrhaps, why II is that
the Britisher Is a better match man.
Because we have captured the
British open championship two years
In q row does not indicate that the
American amateurs can take things
easily In the Forthcoming interna-
uonal match since assume that
most OF the playing viii be by match
rounds. the customary method of
disposing of amateur tiles.
As I understand at the time this is
written, there are to be various
methods of determining golf Su.
periority, and certainly this will
prove to be satisfactory.
As to golf disposition, when the
American amateur fails on a shot or
executes a particularly glaring foozle
he wraps his clubs around the near
est tree. figuratively IL not actually,
and speculates upon the fascinations
OF crsquet as a sport.
The English player, in similar cir.
cumstances, wraps his fists around
his determination, and keeps right
on as II nothing had happened. Some
of the most valuable golf experience
ever obtained I got from studying
the mental attitude Of Britishers in
match play.
There is no question in my mind
that the player who can make a
bad shot or two in a tournament.
and Immediately forget il and keep
right on as II II had never hap
pensd. is the fellow who will cap
ture the championship sooner or
later, because even the best Ct US
will make foozles now and then.
Take Jesse Guilford. for instance.
Jesse won the national amateur
title at st, Louis last year despite
the fact that at one stage Of the
game his driver got so bad on him
that he had to fall back on an iron
and sacrifice distance that was of
great consequence to him.
Guilford. very long driver, has
always been bothered by erratic fits
of his driver. developing slices and
pulls at critical times, but he has
always possessed a rather British
ike disposition, and that has saved
him. Such a disposition serves it's
owner doubly. II buoys him up
when things are breaking badly,
and II keeps his feet squarely on
the ground when the play Is break
ing about even and every move
counts for or against.
The British golfers quiet, silent,
businessllke manner Of playing Ia
to his game what balance Is to the
building construction steelworker;
It may keep him from falling too
for when the English players meet
us-and II may keep us from doing
a whole lot in the winning scores.

In the opening games Of the rather

at the Polo Grounds. the Yanks sp.
peared. to be on the defensive even
when leading. They got away to a
running start IN the second game OF
the double-header. thanks to the
careworn pitching of Dixie Davis,
who was as wild as weeks growth
and had nothing; and then proceeded
to fiat wheel into the wire.
So close was the decision. in fact,
that the Browns had the tying and
winning runs on base In the ninth
when Marty McManus flied to Witt
for the final out. An extra base hit
at this juncture would have won the
pennant. That is the conviction OF
| this writer.
Consider the circumstances. The
Yanlks were sailing along behind q
| fiye-run lead going into the fifth
inning. They seemed to have the
situation well I'm hand, even though
the Browns had culled tallies from
Bush's delivery I'm the fifth and
seventh. II was just n ball game
at that time,
Then the eighth. Here the Browns
filled the bases with Hank SEVERED
coming up, One Of Hanks frequent
hits at this moment would have
won the game, The morale OF the
Yanks, none too good at best, never
would have survived the shock OF
losing that game. Hank, however
! didn't deliver. ~
Then the ninth. Shorten, batting
| for Bayne, singled. He scored on
Tobin's triple. Enter Jones; exit
Bush. Tobin finally scored on an
| infield out. Jones then made every:
| thing look sweet by getting two
strikes on Ken Williams on the first
two balls pitched.
But the count finally went to
three and two, and Williams star
tied the crowd by shooting one
into the upper stands. IL curved
foul by six feet.
Minus the curve that drive would
have tied the score. A tie at this
1uncture would have meant the game
for tha Browns and the game quite
probably would have meant the pen
nant.
Jones liked the situation less when
Williams singled and jacobson
walked. That put the tying run OF,
second base and the winning run on
first. A single. would have tied u
and an extra base hit would have
won the game, The Browns didn't
make II look any closer than that,

very pretty play in the, Normal

flower girls gave the play the

Carpenter as Queen of the Fair
les, Josephine Cosby as the Spir-

the Queens Herald, were es-
pecially good and carried out
their parts with the grace Of eN-

dren are to be thanked for a very
lovely entertainment and Miss
Wingo, their teacher, should be
praised for her successful work
in training them.
