SHORT AND ACCURATE
GOLF GAME FEATURES
TRIUMPHS OF MRS. FOX
Woman of 81 Beats Ma
tional Champion and 9th
err Women Golf Stars.

New York, Feb. 5.-Among all TIE
women golfers playing in the South
and there is veritable army-Mrs. Ca
LED Fox of Huntington Valley is the
heroine. This is partly because Of her
victory over Gienna COllett over the
short course at Bellair Height. Fla. her
card reading 20 to Miss Collects so.
but chiefly because OF the triumph Of
age over youth which marked the down
fall in successive days of Mrs. Dorothy
Campbell Hurd and the woman's ma
tional champion. Besides. there is vast
speculation how much farther this vom-
an of e. years will go in her southern
career.
Reports from Florida show that Mrs.
Eek is adhering to her policy of
short and accurate game, wherein she
exemplificd Harry Nardon's theory of
the advantages Of short and uner.ing
play over a smashing game character
lied by errors. The veterans drives.
with the run. are averaging about 160
yards. which is a good average for any
woman. At the same time no wear and
tear are involved. That is the beauty
of golf it can be played easy or hard
with excellent results in either case.
This. of course, adds to the life OF an
expert performer. whereas in lawn scn-
mis- woman. or man either, il pretty
nearly through from so on.
With Mrs. Hurd. Miss COliett and
Mrs. Fox at Bcllair are Edith Cum
mings of Chicago and several other crack
woman golfers who in the monthly tour
neys will do lot to keep this course on
the man. Other women who have
achieved fame this early in the year are
Dorothy Klotz, who has established a
new wOman'S record for the Palm Beach
course. 20. and Miss Miriam Burns. the
sensational young golfer Of Kansas City.
who is hailed at Miami rs the most
promising girl golfer who has ever
played on the country club links. Mrs.
Ernest Bifipld. formerly Miss Elaine
Roscnthall. has again taken up golf and
gives promise. il is said, Of attaining
great heights this season. She is now
playing at Palm Beach.
Some close observers Of golfing form
believe that Gene Sarazen is due for
reaction this year following his extra
ordinary successes in 1922. Walter
Hagen's tcn-ypar advantage OF expert
cncp. they believe. will stand him in
good stead in his meetings with the open
champion. while at the same time he
will have everything To win and not 20
much to lose as the Brier Cliff PRO.
There is a lot in out-nerving younger
opponent. Some friends OF Sarazen
hone. for reasons set forth above, that
he will not attempt England this year.
