the Federal Reserve Board as chair
man of the board of the giant New

dent Of the American Radiator Com
pany. Small and large banks each

Importance Of McGarrah's position
was emphasized today in a state
ment by the Federal Reserve Board
here. There is no more important
position in the Federal reserve sys-
tenn, it was stated.
For bankers and business men,
this statement establishes McGar
rah on q plane level with Secretary

dis in baseball.
Exceptional qualifications are
required for the job" the board said,
including skilled banking judgment,
the highest repute for integrity,
character and public spirit, forty
years experience as a banker, con-
tact with and knowledge of every
section Of the United States, and an
intimate knowledge of economic and
financial conditions in Europe"
Contact With Europe
McGarrah fills the bill, according
TO the board.
His new duties of maintaining con-
tact and amity with the Old World
money kings will be met by him
with recent first-hand knowledge, as
he is now the American member
of the general council of the Ger
man Reichsbank operating under
the provisions of the Dawes plan
of 1924.
McGarrah will not take office until
May because his attendance is re-
quired at the spring meeting of the
bank council in Berlin.
McGarrah. who is 81 years old, is
a native of Monroe, N. Y. He has
served in executive positions in nu-
merous New York banks. He stated
his banking career as cashier of the
Leather Manufacturers National
Bank.

JOHNSON SETS PACE
IN ARMY NET EVENT

Col. Waite c. Johnson, representing
Fort Benning Infantry School, has
proved himself the outstanding tennis
star among the Army officers com.
peting for the Army Sheridan Cup
championships on Columbia Country
Club courts.
Yesterday he won the doubles title,
paired with Maj. Arthur Seeligson,
representing the 3rd Corps Area,
and is favored today to win the singles.
He disposed of Capt. c. w. Christen-
berry in three hard fought sets yes
terday and is expected to find easier
competition in Lieut.. j. w. Strahan,
End Corps Area, in the final.
Although many years the senior Of
Lieut.. Strahan, Col. Johnson has
flashed a brand of court play in the
tournament not rivaled by the more
youthful players.
Capt. Christenberry furnished the
gallery with bit of excitement when
he evened the count with Col. John
son. taking the second set by the
same score as the Fort Benning
veteran had won the first, Ga. The
senior officer resumed his slashing
work at the net to capture the third
set, 6-3.
1t was announced yesterday that
Mai. Seeligson, Lieut.. Strahan and
Maj. MacDuff, who have shown skill
in the tournament, will not be eligible
to play in the Leech service tourna-
ment on June IS, at Chevy Chase
Country Club, because they hold re-
serve officers status. The Army
promises to present a well balanced
team from the stars making the best
showing in the present tournament.

BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK, June lois there any
sport in which the line between high
class amateur and professional ability
is so nearly invisible as in golf?
Answer to this question will be found
in comparing the two teams Of pro-
fessional golfers which played for the
Ryder Cup in Worcester last week
can amateurs.
Suppose, for instance, that the
teams under which the famous inter
national trophy was offered admitted
of the entrance of a team of eight
amateurs in the match.
A Real Golf Team.
And suppose. further. that the fol-
lowing simon pures had gone to Wor-
cester to compete against Capt. Hagen
and his men and Capt. Ray and his
colleagues:
Bobby Jones, George Won Elm,
Francis Ouimet, Roland Mackenzie,
Jess Sweetser. Jess Guilford, Watts
Gum and Chick Evans, with Rudy
Knepper, Fred Wright, George Voigt,
Bonstein of Seattle and George and
Jim Dawson as substitutes or alter
mates, or perhaps as regulars in the
places of some of those first named.
Certainly, if a match among team
Of amateurs of this caliber and the
American homebred pros and the
British mercenaries had been ar
ranged, the amateurs would have gone
into play absolutely as an even bet.
This would be because in every re-
spect the best of the amateurs are on
a par with the best of the profession
ais. One reason for this, perhaps, is
that the amateurs play about as much
nIC oh
the year. This is not the case as be-
tween amateurs and pros in any other
sport.
Then again, the crack amateurs as
boys have been taught to play golf by
qualified professionals, whereas the
pros themselves have had to pick up
and develop their own game. This,
perhaps, is the real reason, at least the
chief reason.
And while teams are being picked, it
might be interesting, in view of the
fact that the American Ryder Cup
team was restricted to home breds, to
speculate as to the strength of a team |
made up of Scots and Englishmen who |
are now living and playing in the |
United States, having emigrated from |
their native land.
An Even Affair.
It may be said right at the outset |
that team of this sort would besal- |
together formidable and possibly |
might enter a tourney against home |
bred pros with chances of success in |
their favor.
How about this team: T. D. |
Armour; Bobby Cruickshank, Jock |
Hutchinson, who won the British open |
in 1921, Jim Barnes, winner of the |
British open in 1925; w. I. Hunter, |
British amateur champion Of 1921; |
Willie McFarlane, American open |
champion in 1925; Cyril Walker, and |
Macdonald Smith.

at 2 o'clock on the Baltimore Country
Club courts.
Washington's team, captained by

won last year. Baltimore players,
who won the title five successive
years before being defeated by Wash
ington last year, are expected to fur
the local stars path.
Should Washington and Baltimore
racketers clash in the first bracket to-
day, the winner would practically be
assured of the championship, as
neither of the Virginia cities is ex-
pected to send teams of as high
caliber as the two larger cities.

| W ~ nnenlD6r LIldC llNdIldUly Tie
real fault is mental-not
something that is done to
! the club. How often the player will
abandon a good putting blade because
he thinks it has gone bad, when the
truth is nothing is wrong with the
putter' at all!
One popularity of putting is that
nearly every golfer has his own ideas
of how to do it; so that in no depart
ment of the game is there so much
variation in form. Golfers hold 1t suf-
ficient for form if the ball drops, and,
therefore, why abandon a method that
sinks the ball for one that meets So
called form and leaves the ball still
in sight? The truth is, the golfer need
not adopt any fixed rule for putting.
yet there are some things he should
observe which can be observed for his
benefit, regardless of his putting form.
Thus, before he puts he certainly
should line up the putt. We see so
many players merely step up to the
ball and measure the putt Sideways"
that is, they never get in back of the
ball and look at the actual line from
the ball to the cup, yet the records
will show there has never been real
ly good putter who failed to do that.
Looking at the line from in back of
the ball gives a view that is so differ
ent from the lineup sideways" that
those who have never stopped to
line up the putt from back of the ball
could not possibly perceive the differ
ence in any way other than trying
the two.
Lining up the putt from in back Of
the ball does more than show the line
to the cup. 1t enables you to fix an
object directly in front of the ball
which will anchor the line for you
after you take your stance. Also the
player can fix another object in back
of the ball toward which--or over
which-he will carry his putter in the
back swing, while still another object
in front of the ball can be selected as
the point where the blade is to be at
the finish of the swing. The player
actually does not have to follow all
such details to the letter, like an
efficiency expert, but there is one Sc
cret to good putting-the player who
takes slight pains in schooling himself
