MASSINGILL BREAKS
COURSE RECORD IN
DEFEATING COCHRAN
Fort Worth Champion Plays
81 in Riuer Crest
Tournament.

Fort Worth. Tex. Sept. 20
Magnificent golf with the winner max
ing course record six under par
and the loser only two strokes worse
than the winner, characterized the
finals of the River Crest invitation
tournament Saturday won. by NJ. Il.
(Hap) Massingill of River Crest. city
golf champion, from Tommy Cochran
of Wichita Falls, 3 and 1.
Massingill established a new
course record of 67 strokes but 1t is
doubtful that his great play eclipsed,
from a golfing standpoint, the counter
| drive that Tommy began after being
| five down through the twenty-sixtp
| hole.
Twice Cochran cut down Massin-
gill's lead to two up on the last
nine holes, and on the thirty-fourth
hole he trimmed the cup for heart
breaking half after his. ball was APP
parently down for birdie three. The
| match ended rather dramatically or
the thirty fifth hole when Massingill,
| dormie two, sunk a 40-yard approach
| for an eagle two. Both played OUT
! the last hole to enable Massingill TO
establish the new course record.
Massingills putting was excellent
and his recoveries from trouble marvel
Gus. Cochran was not up to his
standard on the green, but the breaks,
however slight. went against him
around the cup.
They quit all square at the end
of the mornin. round after Cochran
had shot a 70, one bunder par, and
Massingill 73, par. On the out nine
in the afternoon. MassiIgill began
setting terrific pace of threes and
fours, and was only 81 strokes through
the twenty-sixth hole. Cochran was
one over par at that point but was
five down.
Cochran took the twenty-seventi
with a par five, and was only foul
down. The next two were halved
and Cochran won 80 and 81 with 9
birdie three and n par four, cutting
Massingill's lead to two up. On the
thirty-second, Cochran mussed his
second shot. going out of bounds or
| bad foozle with an iron, and that
shot was apparently the turning point
of the match. Massingill proceeded
to come through with a birdie four
4 Cochran getting a par five. On the
thirty-third. Massingill pitched wei
on, within fifteen feet of the pin, ant
the match was apparently over. Blu
Cochran drove to three feet of the
cup and was down in birdie two
after Massingill had missed his lont
putt.
The thirty-fourth was halved in pal
four. after Cochran had trimmed thu
cup for a birdie three. Massingill wa.

BILLY EVANS SAYS

1t may sound funny but it's true,
Ed Walsh, in his day one of the great
est pitchers that ever stepped Oh the
rubber, would like to do a come
back. Walsh, now acting as an as
sistant TO Kid Gleason ut Chicago,
feels that he could be of considerable
use to Gleason, particularly as a re-
lief pitcher.
So persistent has been Walsh that
Gleason has had him do considerable
pitching to the batters. While Ed
arm isn't like it was back in 10O6
he still has more stuff than lot OF
recruits who are breaking in as pitch
ers with promise.
Gleason was so impressed with
Walsh's desire for another chance
likewise with the stuff he showed
while in action, that he took the
matter up with the powers that be
Walsh won his fame. as a spitball
pitcher. When that delivery was
made taboo, it was agreed that pitch
crs using that style would be permit
ted to remain in the league and use
the spitball until they became passe
Walsh was really through as spit
ball pitcher before the edict barring
the delivery went into effect. II
Walsh was to do comeback it was
necessary that he be allowed to USE
the moist delivery. 1t was held that
since he had passed out of the ma
jors, regarded as through, it would
be unfair to allow him to return as
spitball pitcher. That, of course, end
ed Walsh's dream to do a comeback
as relief pitcher for the White
Sox.
"Pitching of today is far inferior
to the brand Of ten to fifteen years
ago." says Walsh. I'm those day;
every club had four or five good pitch
ers, capable of giving the opposite,
battle any time they stepped on thu
rubber. It's different now. Man
ayers of most clubs have only one ace
a pitcher in whom. the manager feels
he has an edge. The lively ball i
| the trouble maker. Perhaps the old
time pitchers would have been as in
effective had they been forced to pitcl
the rabbit BALI now used" There
is much logic in what Walsh say
about the lively ball.

Is there any case in which it is pos
sible to re-tee a ball after a stroke
has been played!
After q stroke has been played,
even though the club did not come
into contact with the ball, winch
rolls from a tee, it is not possible to
re-tee the ball because it is i'm play
and must be played from its lie.
Only when a ball falls or is knocked
from the tee while a player is i'm the
act OF addressing it, has the player
the right to re-tee it.
Is it permissible for a player to
remove a loose impediment that is
lying in front of his ball, regardless
of the distance that it may be from
same! Does it make difference
whether the ball is through the green
or on the green as to the removal of
loose impeachment?
Through the green a player has a
right TO remove loose impediments
that do not lie farther than club
length from the ball. IL il is a great
er distance than club length he can.
not remove same, unless il is on the

within his rights i'm removing any

On the putting green, any player can
have any other ball lifted or played,
at the option Of its owner.
When a ball is lifted from ground

cedure?
The ball must be dropped as near as
possible to where it lay, but not near

Ulayer drives from the tee. The
course taken by his ball makes it
seem that he has gone out of bounds.
Upon reaching his ball he discovers
that it is lying just within bounds.
The position of the ball, however, is
such that the player in order to prop

IL players ball is within bounds,
