STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE

One of the most interesting chap
ters in the annals of golf is the trans
formation of a pair of Scotland's for
mer amateur champions into duo of
golfers, who have contributed their
share to the spice and splendor of
the Winter campaign and have drawn
down the lions share of the prize
money offered in the major Journeys
from the Golden Gate to Florida.
Tommy Armour, professional at the
Congressional Country Club, and wee
Bob Cruickshank, now holding down
the berth at the Progress Country
Club of upper New York State, are
the twin sons of Caledonia, whose
deeds from the West coast to the
East over the past three months must
place them high in the list of poten.
tial national open winners. Cruick-
shank has been the shining light in
the professional trek which started at
San Francisco back in December and
now is at its peak at Atlanta. Just
all back of him is Armour, who has
packed away enough 'pelf this Win
ter to keep him in luxury for a, while.
Romance stalks the heels of this pair,
who only a few days ago won the in.
ternational best ball championship
over a fine field at Miami, and are
today competing in the Southern open
at Atlanta Both played a part in
the World War, a part in which Ar.
mour suffered serious injuries which
bother him even today-far more seri.
ously than he will ever discuss.
Crulckshank was German prisoner,
interneu Tor months, escaping through
Holland to carry on to the wars end.
Prior to the great conflict both had
won the championship of Scotland.
CruickShank held the record for tbo
historic Musselburgh course near
Edinburgh and Armour had crossed
the channel to annex the French
amateur crown.
Armour came to the United States
in 1919 to become secretary of John
McEntee Bowman's Westchester-
Biltmore extravaganza at Rye, n. Y.
Cruickshank had more modest start,
for he came to this country to secure
the professional berth at Shacka-
maxon, N. j. While Tommy was
struggling in the amateur ranks,
Bobby went ahead saving wood as a
professional until 1923, when he came

GUT UNLIKELY

LONDON, March 1.Great Brit.
aims reply to President Coolidge's
disarmament proposals has refer
ence only to the original proposal
for q five-power disarmament con-
ference. and has no relevance to
any subsequent suggestion for a.
tri.partite conference, the Interna-
tional News Service was informed
today In authoritative government.
circles.
The Government spokesman made
1t clear that Great Britain is not
at all likely TO accept any proposal
for disarmament conference be-
tween the United States. Great
Britain and Japan.
Emphasis was laid on that por.
ton OF the British reply which
stated that British trade routes
must be protected.
1t was pointed out that these
trade routes for the most part pass
through the Mediterranean and
therefore Great Britain can not
participate In any disarmament
conference where the principal
Mediterranean powers. France and
Italy, are absentees.
Should any proposals for a tri.
partite conference be made Great
Britain would consider them only
IL they were confined to the Pacific.
The British reply will be debated
in the House of Commons on
Thursday and 1t is expected that
Lloyd George, Liberal leader, and j.
Ramsay Macdonald, labor leader,
will take occasion to criticize the
government for its attitude towards
the proposals.
