Clark Called Greatest athlete Eer Dereped District Playground
LEFTY. CLOSE LOST
TO VIRGINIA TEAMS

BY the Associated Press.
UNIVERSITY, Va, April 1i.-Oscar
T. Lefty" Close. for the last two years
an outstanding athlete in base ball and
track at the University Of Virginia, has
reached the end of his athletic career
with the Cavaliers
Although he expects to continue
studies at the university, Close. who is
from Shamrock, Tex, will not be able
to wear the Orange and Blue upon
either gridiron or diamond because he
has completed the five-year period OF
athletic participation that Is permit
ted under the rules OF the Southern
Conference.
Close registered as freshman at the
University Of Texas during the Spring
Of 1924. He remained at that school
only short time and played on no
team. He attended Davis and Elkins
College later and won athletic promi-
hence, but as that school had not come
under the Southern Conference CLASH
fcatien as of collegiate rank he was
eligible to play on teams at Virginia
until the end of the fifth year from
the time he first matriculated in
Texas.
Last year he was president Of the
department of education. in which he
was a student, and this year he is
serving on the executive board of the
Athletic Association and Is a student
representative on the Athletic Council.
He received the B. S. degree in edu-
cation last June.
Close has been regular first baseman
on the nine through two seasons. Bill
Rryd. shortstop last sea-ca, probably
will play this position for the rest of
the season.

Ryder Cup Golfers Confident /
As They Set Sail for Britain

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, April M.-After days
of preparation and farewell
featS In New York, the Ameri-
4 can Ryder cup golf team final
ly has left the glare of flash
lights behind and is ON its way to Eng
land for what its members predict will
be hard battle to retain the interna-
tional professional trophy.
Plenty of confidence was in evidence
as the 10 home-bred pros boarded the
Mauretania, but none was expecting an
easy victory. Capt. Waller Hagen re-
ported that his players were feeling
'f1t and fine" and had high hopes of
success in the various events which fol-
low the Ryder cup matches on their
schedule as well as in the team play.
The team consists of Hagen, Johnny
Farrell, Leo Diegel. Gene Sarazen, Hor-
ton Smith, Al Watrous, AL Espinosa,
Ed Dudley, Joe Turnesa and John Col
den.
A careful program OF preparation
has been laid out by Capt. Hagen be-
fore and after the team reaches Ply
mouth Monday. Most of the time be-
fore they get to England will be spent
in resting from the strain of the fare
well and in enjoying freedom from pho
tographers. After a luncheon given
by their British rivals at Plymouth, the
players will go at once to Leeds to
make the most of the 10 days they have
before the matches April 20 and 81.
Hagen plans to vary the program by
visits to several other courses, includ-
ing Deal, Sandwich, Walton Heath and
Mid-Sgrrey. asd ct the same time to
give his men a taste of every kind Of
golfng condition to be found in Eng
land.
Following the Ryder Cup matches at
Leeds, the members Of the team will
take part in the British open champion
ship, the Yorkshire Evening News tour
nament, the French open and a team
match against France Hagen also is
planning several individual matches
after the team invasion is over.

Stars Do Not Keep
Left Arm Straight

Keep the left arm straight" That
Is the slogan of nearly every golf
lesson. Yet the Hagens, Mitchells,
Farrells and other cracks will be no
ticed at the top of their swings for
tee shots with an apparent bend of
the left arm at the elbow. One so
constantly encounters such conflicts
between what the stars do and what
they advocate for others that golf
becomes most perplexing problem
for the average player.
Not SO long ago I read where
Johnny Farrell wrote that the mex
perienced golfer should keep his left
arm straight. as that would prevent
him from overswinging at the top.
He admitted that most of the best
players had bend in theirs at this
point.
This slight bending of the left ell
bow at the top, a fault that Harry
Vardon had, If it is fault, is al
most certain to occur with older
and stouter and well muscled play
ers. Only the young. thin and lean
golfers seem to be able to keep the
left straight.
