spite the fact that Martin is only a

was impressive because he showed

MARSTON'S PLAYING HAS
ALWAYS BEEN BRILLIANT
Member of American Team Is Excep-
tionally Good When 1t Comes
to Long Games
BY The Associated Press.

BY The Associated Press.
New York, May Maxwell r..
Marston, one of the members of the
American Walker cup golf team now
in Great Britain, holds a string of
minor titles won on eastern links.
Marston won the Pennsylvania
amateur title in 1921 and 1922 and
captured first honors in the New Jer-
sey amateur title tournament In 1915
and 1919. He reached the semi-final
round of national amateur champion
ships on several occasions his nearest
approach to the final being in 1915
when he missed six inch putt on the
final green, losing to Robert A. Gard
ner of Chicago, who has been his
stumbling block nearly every time he
sought national honors.
AS a member of the 1922 Walker
cup team Marston lost his singles
match to w. w. Mackenzie but won
from Mackenzie and John Cavan in
the doubles with w. G. Fownes OF
Pittsburgh for a partner.
Marston plays a remarkable long
game. He Is weakest with his mashie
with which he takes full swing on
any length approach, but has never
theless unusual control of his pitches.

resignation of Tommers and Johnny
Mack, coach of the track team. have
been made in certain quarters, but
the board Of control of the Athletic

has no intention Of resignng. 1t is
said unless his continued i'll health

absorbing topic OF conversation in this
burg.
With Jess Willard at Yonkers get
ting in shape for Floyd Johnson. and
Luis Firpo making ready 10 annihilate
Jack McAuliffe. the pot is boiling
among the big fellows.
Willard certainly looks in great
shape. If he was a younger man by
five or more years, I certainly would
be willing to concede him a fine
chance against Dempsey. There isn't
a bit of superhuous weight on Willard.
He looks to be in the best condition
Of his career.
Some years ago ! saw Willard box
the late Luther Mccarthy at Madison
Square Garden. Willard was in the
novice class then. The Willard ] saw
