CHIP SHOTS
By JIGGER


 If Bobby Jones wins the national amateur it ought to clinch the claim that the Atlanta Wizard is the su- preme grand potentate of golf. At Winged Foot III June he beat the best that America could produce, professional or amateur. In the play-off there with Espinosa, Jones exhibited class which marked him as the greatest golfer of the age.
 Now he appears to have carried over the form he displayed at Mamaroncck. It is a long jump from New York to California where golfing conditions are different, and anything in the way of form re- vcrSal can happen in two months. But q first qualifying round of 70 at Pebble Beach. afer a practice round of 67 indicates that the golfing king can knock them off under par just as easily on the Pacific slope as has been his habit for the past several years on the Atlantic seaboard.

After the experience of this past season and the workings of the managers of the teams in the series we say to them and to all others, Cut out the kidding and leave the championships to the major leagues

Theoretically the plan to have all the teams play in a serles was d good one. Practically, it was a dua, None of the teams made any money and this, it appears seemed to be the important thing from the stand point of the managers. Rules were violated right and left and agree ments meant as much as the treat ies did when the World War start ed. Nobody paid any attention to the promises made and even when one team violated a rule outright with the knowledge that a bond of $50 might be forfeited, none of the managers, with the exception of Cabay of the Holy Cross, had the courage to move that the bond of that team be forfeited.

If we figure rightly, Manager John Cahay and Manager John Tobin will probably hook up their is the better crew. Both of these managers last night made attempts 10 save the situation but neither could make an impression on the others.

Spe a in g of Sports

Manager David Beloin of the Fafnir Bearing baseball team does mt know anything about the pro- posed meeting between his team and the Holy Cross nine, champion of the City baseball league. When queried on the telephone this morn- ing, he stated that he had not been approached by anyone relative to the game or series of games.
 He stated that his team was not anxious to play a series of games because of the fact that the Drag ons are entered in the play for the state industrial title. The team plays Hartford a week from today in Hartford in the first game of the playoff.

Now that the city championship series has been postponed sine die" Us they say in Rome, that is, until some time in the future, proba bly, in 1886, the question is "Who cares? 9"
 The managers at the meeting last night got just as far as pleni- potentiares of the Hebrews and Moslems might get in the present crisis in Palestine They Were go- ing at full speed but arrived at no destination last night.
 Certainly, if there is to be a playoff for the championship, even now, We feel that there are just two teams that qualify. They arc the Corbin Red SOx and the Holy Cross teams. They were undefeat- ed in the series as far as 1t was played. Both defeated the Falcons while the Holy Cross team downed kensington.
New Britain herald., 1929-09-04

No action on the violation was taken and therefore the possibility of making the other teams live up to the agreements made, was nulli- fed.

 it Indianapolis

Indianapolis, May e4 NNThirty- three young men. riding spidery ''toy" automobiles, will dare the rough brick rim of the Indianapolis motor speedway May 30 to win . portion of the $100.0o0 purse to be awarded for the 50O-milie grind. Forty-six have entered. but only g may qualify.
 Seventeen years ago the first mos tor race was held at the speedway. Once a year since then the fame and fortune that goes to the winner have lured the racers.
 This race is the last for the single seated machines. Next year the cars will be two-seaters, and the motors will be larger. Since 1926 the machines have been pow cred with tiny engines of 9lh cubic inch displacement.
 The front wheel driven machine will make its greatest bid for rac- ing fame on Memorial Day. Eff. teen of the 4s cars entered are of that type.
 Proponents of the front drive car declare it is the ideal type for the rough. sharp turns of the speed way. eliminating or holding to a minimum. the skidding and loss oi speed. Then a driver may safely pile into the turns without shutting off his gas. In fact he must do it to stay in the race.
 Those who favor the rear-drive point out that all the winners have been of that type The new type ma chine, they claim, is too delicate to stand the gruelling 500 miles.
 Only few of the old-timers~ ol the game are on the track this year. Leon Duray is one Of the vet erans among youngsters. So is Clifl Durant the millionaire driver.
 or the younger school will be Louis Meyer, 1928 winner: Tony Gullotta. who had the race in the sack last year until his gas tank cracked: Lou Moore. and Peter De- Paolo. the 1925 winner.

 Only . few of the Civil war vet erans will take m actual part in the program. Following the assem- bly, call by bugier Of the marine band, Hosea B. Moulton, ss. past commander of the c. A.

 The advent of rare book trading to the realm of high finance came about through Mir. Webber's in- terest in first editions and the colorful artistry of medieval book binders He saw that a vast "in- dustry," whose securities were listed on no exchange, owed their valuation to unorganized, oser-the- counter bargaining.
 Mir. Webber sells no books and buys none except for his own grow ing collection. He is planning to leave next month for another tour of Londonsl cob~ebby corners in search of records and facts with which he is able to establish the authenticity of crumbling, stained volumes.
 He says his purpose is to provide an Tunbiased sOurce from which book collectors. librarians. rare book dealers. administrators of estates and associations can obtain reliable data and advice relative to the value and. marketability of bockc they own or intend to buy.
