The well-played pitch frequently is
reported as being stuck" close TO the
pin. but only once have / heard Of n
well-played putt being stuck. This
was at the recent national golf cham
pionship played by the ladies at Vir-
GINA Hot Springs. The putt was not
played there. 1t was at Hot Springs
that / heard about il. Mrs. David
Gaut Of Memphis was the putter.
She told me about il. Mrs. Gaut is
an eminent figure in feminine golf
in America. AS far back as 1920 |
saw her in a remarkable match with
Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd at
Mayfield, in the semi-final round Of
the national championship. Mrs. Gaut
went to the final green with Mrs.
Hurd and used only 81 puts in the
match. She has played consistently
in the major tournaments and has
won southern and western honors
rather frequently. She now is chair
man of the women's committee of the
United States Golf Association, and
! think | never saw anybody work rs
hard as Mrs. Gaut did at Virginia
Hot Springs, getting the 1928 cham
pionship properly started.
During a recess from toll she told
me about the putt she once stuck
close to the cup.
II seems she was playing in a four
ball match with three masculine golf
ers at the Memphis Country club, and
il was a close battle with a small
wager on each corner. Coming out
all square at the eighteenth green,
it was agreed to play one extra hole
in the effort TO reach a decision.
At No. /, Mrs. Gaut was inside on
reaching the green and after the 9TH
ers had putted, nobody holing. she
was left with q putt Of about six
yards for the hole and match.
One of the other balls lay in the
line of her putt, and Mrs. Gaut re-
quested the caddy at the flag TO lift
and mark it. The boy complied, put
ting down on the green n sI.all OBJ
ject to indicate the location of the
ball he had lifted.
Mrs. Gaut then putted the ball
and was running straight for the hole
when il suddenly stopped-suddenly
and unaccountably.
81 was sure the ball would have
gone in the hole" said Mrs. Gaut.
1T was so close the putt was con
ceded. The match was halved.

Aggies to Play
Owls Saturday;
Then For Texas

COLLEGE STATION. Tex, Nov. IS.
On the invasion of the Rice Owls
OF Coach Claude Rothgeb from Hous-
ton, Saturday, Nov. II, the Texas
Aggies Of Coach Dana Bible will play
their last game of the season on
Kyle Field. The subsequent and fin
al game for the Aggies will be
Thanksgiving Day tilt with the Long
horns at Austin.
The clash with Rice promises TO
afford an interesting battle since
both teams will be fighting to make
up as much as possible in the final
stages Of the conference race for re-
verses in the early part OF the sea
son. The game will start half an
hour earlier than usual, $3.50 having
been fixed as the starting time.
While a survey Of scores Of Aggie-
Owl games Of recent years shows the
Aggies leading in number OF victo-
ries, IL also shows comparatively
small scores for the Aggies in con-
trast with scores against other teams.
Last season, for instance, Rice was
the only team, with the exception Of
r. c. L., against which the powerful
championship Aggie team did not
score heavily. The score Of that
game was Il TO 0.
The Owls have won but one game
from the Aggies since 1917 though
on another occasion the two teams
battled to a III tie. The Owls put
over their win in 1928, z to 6.

BASKETBALL
SEASON NOW
LOOMING Up
Makes Itself Heard
Despite Popularity
OF Football; Dope
Means Little
BY r. g. vOsBURGH
Press Sports Writerl

tH@oohattu EtHh OpOEts NTiteTB
NEW YORK, Nov. l3.-(Py-The
football season is in full blast with
the Al-American frenzy and the
awarding OF the laurel wreaths still
ahead, but already the sounds Of
practice on many a college gymnas-
ium floor have announced that the
basketball season is right on its
heels.
From all indications its coming
will mean the introduction Of a diff
ferent set of colleges and universe
ties to athletic fame, as those which
are supreme in football rarely scale
the heights in basketball as well. A
good example is Carnegie Tech Of
Pittsburgh which at present is rid
ing high as one Of the two unbea-an
and united elevens in the East but
which set something Of a record on
the basketball court last winter BY
losing every game il played.
In the East-Pittsburgh, Pennsyl-
vania and Princeton stand out. In
the middle West--both Indiana and
Perdue, which wound up q tie for
the western conference champion
shin, had young teams and start the
new drive with most of their vet
Grams on hand. In the far West
Southern California has what advan-
tsge goes with being the defending
champion, but its margin over Cai-
fornia in the southern half was
pretty slim.
In the Missouri valley-this will be
the first year Of basketball compe-
tition in the new big Six" Okla
homa won the last championship OF
the old Missouri valley conference
in 1929 and must be made a heavy
favsrite although Kansas Is always
dangerous.
In the Southwest-Arkansas, an
other lofty team unbeaten in WIN
ming the championship last year, has
the makings Of a strong quintet.
In the Rocky mountain conference
1T will be the Montana State Bob
eats against the rest of the field.
In the South-This Is hardest sec
tion Of all about which to prophesy
rs was shown last season when the
University Of Mississippi iolted the
EXPERTS by winning the title. "Ole
Miss" beat out Auburn. another
combination which before the season
was looked upon as a decided dark
horse.

PORTS FORUM

Hats off TO the redheads.

Hats off to the redheads,
Story comes as one Of the incidents
Of the game in McAllen yesterday
between that city and Harlingen high
school e%levens, 70 the effect that
several fellows, with venomous
tongues, were "razzing" come Of the
players on one of the teams, and con-
tinued it until an auburn haired
young lady. turned on them.
The story goes that she quieted
the boisterous and unsportsmanlike
manner Of these fellows in a few
we'll chosen words. And it doesn't
make any difference to the writer
which side the obnoxious ones were
%riding-a few more setdowns, like
above, to this element and the game
of football will be more pleasant,
and at the same time draw more fans.
IL is a we'll known fact that many
fans stay away from games because
Of the actions Of the rough, uncouth
element, who expose their ignorance
of the game, and their common sense
of humor and ~unmanliness, at many
contests.
And again we bring 70 your
attention the evils resulting from
betting on high school football
games. Mistakes are going TO be
made by Brownsville and San
Benito players here Friday. They
are made by grown-up athletes.
We have no sympathy for the
person who bets his coin and
cusses out the team because IL
lost. That sort Of person II a
very sorry sport. 10 say the least.
Another evil resulting from big
sums of money wagered, is the fact
that in some cases officials Of the
game are accused, rightfully or
wrongly. Of ~favoring one side or an
other. When sums of money in suf-
ficient amounts are being exchanged
well. a contamination Of crooked
ness results lots OF times.
So If there are those who must bet
on the San Benito- game
il is none Of our business. But il
the losers Of the money start whining
about the losing team or pick out
some one player to vent their feel
ings on-then that's "a different
story. And another thing there is a
law that forbids betting on any kind
Of athletics. Would be a boost for
the game IL officers would enforce
this law on gamblers.
