 This is his sixth appearance in the British open.
 T went over in 1920 and made . mess of it," he said. "I qualified fourth and finished so far down that you can't find my name in the rec ords. The next year I went to St. Andrews and tied for sixth. Then l won at Sandwich in 1922.
 And now the championship is be- ing played at Sandwich again" Hagen, down to weight, has been a hard golf nut to crack in British competition. There's no telling what he will do with a double chin.

 T ought to be just right when we get to Sandwich for the champion ship" the old Hagen said, as his natural confidence in his ability un- der all conditions drove thoughts of distance and rusty clubs from his mind.
 "rhis match with Archie Comp ston will help q lot and win, lose or draw, 1t will tune me up for the shot at tho title"
 Of late Hagen has turned his back on golf. He ycnturcd into baseball long enough to put S27,50o as part of the purchase price of the Rochester, (N. Y.) International league club. and was not able 10 complete the transaction. He still the St. Louis Nationals took over the Rochester franchise and the golfer expects to get his baseball money back.
 Went Into Movies
 From baseball Hagen went into motion pictures and completed his Hollywood appearances before the camera just in time to sail for Eng land last week.
 They tell me I screen pretty wcll." he said. Some of my friends tell me I am better actor than golfer. To keep the average up there are others who say that as an actor, | look like g. good golfer"
 There is no doubt that Hagen thinks he can win the British open. If he comes 10 the home hole need ing a birdie, or even an eagle. to win or tie, he will have the caddie take the pin out and leave him plenty of room to gctthc ball down, no mat ter how far away from the cup he 1 may happen 10 pc.
 There were murmurs last year that the dashing Haig was through. His feet were giving him trouble in the spring and the cocky Hagen walk was reduced to q limp during the southern open in March.
 Fire of Criticism,
 At Worcester in May when Hagen arrived to captain the American pro fcssionals in the international match es for the Ryder cup there were whispers that the best move he could make as captain would be 10 bench himself and let Al Espinosa. sub stitute on the team, take his place. Hagen answered this criticism of his play by stepping Out to win, two up and one to play, from Arthur Havers, former British open cham pion, who won the title when Ha- gen was a runncr-up. q stroke back at HoyIakc in 1893.

.HALIByT CATCH THIS
 SEASON IS BELOW 1927

Although the catch of halibut thus far this season, as reported at the Seward plant of tho San Juan Fishing & Packing Go. Is considerably below the record of last year, there is still a chance of bringing up the total be- fore the season closes November Is.
 Last year the plant froze, and ship ped out nearly 2,5OOOOO pounds of halibut but the record this year thus far is only about 100000 of which 35O,OOO pounds are, on hand in the re- frigeration rooms, the rest having already been transported to the Out side market.
 It has not been a good halibut year either as to catch or prices the fish ermen say but there is still chance that the catch will improve before closing lime in November. The closed season has heretofore beep placed by the fish commission be- tween November 15 to February IS. but it is possible that the embargo will be extended until the first of March.
