HAGEN SETS RECORD
IN EASTERN GOLF WIN
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DELAWARE WATER GAP, Pa.
July 21.--Walter Hagen today wore
another golf crown--the Eastern open
championship. In winning yesterday,
the first competition for the new title,
Hagen played sensational golf. After
setting a new world record of 1872
strokes for the first 36 holes, he failed
by one stroke of equaling the world
mark of PA for 70 holes, made by
Emmett French at Youngstown, Ohio,
in 1929. His worst round, a "a, was
played on a wet course. His other
rounds were 81, SIS and 69. The
former course record was 20, while ~
is par.
On the eighteenth green Of the final
round Hagen had 12-foot putt to tie
French's record. The putt was true
but the ball hung on the lip Of the
cup.
Hagen's card of 275 was nine strokes
ahead of his nearest competitor
Johnny Farrell Of New York.
Hagen won three Of the four special
prizes of 500 for each low round and
$500 first money. He also was
awarded gold VOLTS head with dia-
monds for eyes.

II st. Louis had shown the same
punch against the metropolitan dis.
trict that has been shown by the
Pirates and the Reds. the Cardinals
might have been leading the race.
Chicago, up TO the present, has been
the weakest of the four in gaining
ground at the expense Of the East.

In the American League the situa.
ton Is quite different. The Eastern
clubs have the better combined per-,
centage. Their total is about $50 as
against AIS for the West. in approx
mate figures. There is little satisfac-
ton in them for the East, although
1t seems probable that an Eastern team
will win. The figures show there is
strength enough scattered around in
the Western section to win a pennant,
but that none of the teams can con
centrate on an objective.
The National League race, which
has about 100 points between it's first
and last clubs, seems to be closer
than the race in the American League.
but that is due to the fact that the
Yankees are big leaders and the Bos-
con Red Sox big losers as compared
With the other six teams. l
The Red Sox have won nearly as
many games from the West as the
Nationals, although they have lost
so many more that they are low
