Sarazen's Successor
Holes Tee Shot
at ESQ Yards

Even though he can't succeed
to the honors of Gene Sarazen,
the national open champion, Ben
Parola, professional at the
Sunnyfield Golf Club at Linden,
N. j., is wearing a smile that
won't come off these days as
the result Of his recent feat at
the ninth hole at Sunnyfield.
Parola, it will be recalled, sue
ceeded Sarazen at the Titusville,
Pa, course last year. Playing
the $50 yard ninth hole over
the Jersey links, Ben holed his
tee shot-and he is perfectly
content with the knowledge that
there is no one to live up to
the old Scotch custom so far
as he is concerned.

He based his opinion on the be-
lief that the Frenchman is inclined
to uncover his jaw in order to
make use of his now famous right
hand.
He can be hit" Kilbane de-
clared, tersely, land any boxer who
can be hit can be beaten"
At that, the former champion
could hardly do other than concede
that Criqui mustered surprisingly
strong defense. This was accom-
plished. Kilhane said, by humping
his left shoulder we'll over his jaw
and keeping it there, except at
more or less rare intervals. 1t is
these intervals that will afford any
smart boxer the opportunity he
needs, in the opinion of Kilbane.
That he himself did not take ad-
vantage Of these temporary ex-
pOsureS can be laid to the mat
ter Of bad hands, KiIbane ex-
planned.
"I hit him three times on the
jaw with my right i'm the fourth
round, but after the first punch
there was nothing behind the wal
lOp," he said. 1.-THE hand had
gone bad. My left went out Of
commission In the 11rSt rOIlnn.
These are facts not alibis. I want
everybody to know that think

Kilbane's immediate plans are
more or less indefinite. He would
neither deny nor affirm the COM
mon belief that he intends to re
tire, but intimated that he planned
to open a health farm on his es
tate at Vermillion, Ohio.
According to close friends, XII

had some business reverses five

They will--to a certain extent
AS one golfer put it: IF these
daily scores are to determine a
players class what is to stop a
player like Agnew, Voight, Posey,
Di Este, and other sharpshooters
from turning in scores that will
places them in Class B, and what
is to stop legitimate B player
from turning in Glass G scores and
being given G rating?"
As stated before in these columns
The Times tournament is to be run
strictly upon an honor basis.
Again we will limit the statement
by adding-to a certain extent.
There probably never was q
tournament held, and there prob
ably never will be one, but what
there was or will be an attempt
to use sharp practices upon the
part of one or two to secure an
= edge. Out Of a hundred or more
persons you will always find
some bird who Is looking for the
best of it.
But The Times is going to use
every means toward guarding
against any player putting one
over. The scores submitted each
day are for two purposes. The
first is to determine the ones whose,
names shall be posted upon The
Times Honor Roll each week and
the second is to enable the tourna-
nent committee to arrive at a fair
classification of those golfers who
perhaps are not as well known as
the Dyers, Watsons, McAleers, Mil
lers, Phelans, McGuires and others.
Let one of those fellows try Ia
get into anything other than Class
A. Yes, just let 'em try and do 1t!
The tournament committee NAV
not have the exact dots on each
and every public links player in the
District. but then there Is Henry
Miller and Tommy Ryan, the two
pros at Rock Creek Park and East
Potomac Park. Miller and Ryan
do not stand around all day blind
folded. They have a pretty cord
line on the players shooting over
their courses.
That is not all there viii be to
the classification. The Times pro.
poses to pick at random half
dozen or more players who frequent
the two public courses quite often
and have a wide acquaintance.
They will be asked to give the
tournament committees classified
lions the uncover. If in their
opinion a player has been classified
too low, his classification will be
raised
The Times today is printing q
complete list of those golfers who
have signified their intention of
eI1tP-'''e the tournament. The
scores they turned in are also
p. In many instances the
sc"''s" d" not really indicate the
caIiber of the players. AS the
progresses and the nallet-
wielderS hit their stride the scores
vi saw most decided down
ward trend.
A. L. Houghton with a round Of
81 turned in the lowest perform
ance over the East Potomac Park
course since the placing of The
Times score board in the club
house Earl McAleer came next

the District public links champion,
had two rounds, one of SO and the
other of 40.
The scores from Rock Creek Park
were not received in time for tab
ulation neither has the scoreboard
been placed in position. AS a re-
suit scores made by the players at
Rock Creek Park during the last
several days will be tabulated along
with those for the coming week and
