Nichols was being beaten by Mccoy

Cunningham, both of Yale, were ar

Payne, Southern California's star en-

The half-mile, on the basis Of the

while Edwards was taking it easy at

shows why track. as we'll as foot

Although nothing official has been an
nounced, it is almost certain Big Bill"
will compete in the semi-final match1
against the European interzone winner

Middle atlantic Golf Tourney
Changed TO Roland Park Links

It isn't often that a hole Of the diff
ficulty Of the fourteenth at Washington
Is halved in birdie Is. But that is
what Bob Barnett OF Chevy Chase and
Monro Hunter of Indian Spring did in
a match at the Virginia club yesterday.
Barnett played a mashie iron from the
tee to within 3 yards Of the hole. Take
that he said, land try to get a half"
IN get the half all right" Hunter
said. But you may miss that putt II
lose the hole" So he took a No. 3 iron
and knocked the ball well inside that of
Barnett to within 4 feet of the cup
They both holed their puts.
Hunter made one of the finest tee
shots on that round we ever have seen.
1t YVES a soaring. hard-hit ball from
the seventeenth tee. which carried high
over the trees onto the green and rolled
over the putting surface in line with
the pin. His ball actually was Is yards
past the flag and in line with it. He
pitched back on the green and holed
the putt for a birdie 3.
Some long hitters doubt whether the
long carry is the proper way to play
that hole. But any man who can
knock a ball as far. or nearly as far as
Hunter. never should play the safe shot
TO the angle of the ditch and then play
across to the green. The chances are
his tee shot Will cave him little more
than a chip shot or a short pitch to the
hole, even II he finds the trap at the
left Of the green, while the man who
plays the safe shot may have trouble
getting a putt for his 3 and is not too
certain OF a 4. Another real tee shot
hit by Hunter was at the third, where
his ball was only 20 yards short of the
pump house in the rough at the right
OF the fairway.
Harold N. Graves. who is PLAYING on
the Central High School golf team. is
only Is years old. but is able to knock
the ball around Indian Spring with the
best of them. He has had several scores
under IS and only yesterday scored an
30 over that long and hard layout.
James G. Corcoran has brought up
from the South a new putting game
which is being enjoyed and decried by
members of the Washington Golf and
Country Club. 1t is a fourSome best
ball game. played on the practice putt
ing green. but stymies are played, and
a player may aid his partner by knock
ing his ball near the hole. The game
becomes one of jockeying for position
and of trying to stymie the other fell
lows ball.

F0UR-YEAR RULE FlSH'S
PLAN FOR WEST POM

The suggestions that West Point
athletic authorities adopt a four
year rule permitting athletes who
have played three years at other
colleges to play only one year on
Army teams has been advanced BY
Representative Fish. Republican.
New York. as a means of bringing
the Army and Navy Academies to-
gether on the gridiron again.
In a letter to Secretary Good of
the War Department, Mr.. Fish
pointed out that by using players for
three years after they had already
participated in varsity sport for a
similar period at other institutions,
the Army not only placed a handi-
cap on its opponents. but left slight
opportunity for inexperienced men
at West Point TO make the teams.

TINE championship tournament Of
the Middle Atlantic Golf ASso-
citation, originally listed for the
Il famed Five Farms course Of the
Baltimore Country Club, will be
contested next week over the Roland
Park layout. it was announced today.
The golf committee of the Baltimore
Country Club, believing that Five Farms
Is too far from downtown Baltimore,
recommended that the tourney be
played on the Roland Park course,
which is only 20 minutes by automobile
from the center of the city. This
recommendation was %concurred in by
the association. Roland Park has been
the scene of many historic golf battles.
Harry G.. Pitt of Manor, holder OF the
title, Intends to practice tomorrow over
the Roland Park course and many
Washington entrants plan to go to
Baltimore on Monday to try to solve
the tricks Of the layout before the
championship starts on Wednesday
morning. Pairings will be made Mon
day night, and it is probable that the
qualifying round, originally scheduled
to be played at Sc holes, will be cut to
l8, with the field to be split into two
parts. Six flights will qualify for the
match play rounds on Wednesday and
Thursday, with the final round sched-
uleQ Tor SATURDAY. ENTRIES Tor the
championship, which Is the largest sec
tional tourney held about Washington
and Baltimore during the year, will
close at 2 pm. Monday.
Gene Larkin, assistant pro at Chevy
Chase, who set "A new course record for
the Chevy Chase layout recently, has
been added TO the list of professionals
who will go to Oakmont to try to quail
fly on June 10 for the national open
championship. Larkin will leave Wash
ington next Friday night with J. Mum
70 Hunter, Fred Mcleod, A. B. Thorn
and Alex Armour to practice over the
Oakmont course. All the Washington
entrants are hopeful of qualifying. al
though they admit the task is a difficult
n 1t is virtually conceded that two
scores of 80 for a total of 100 will quail
~ over Oakmont, from which IL quail
ferS will go to the open, which will be
played at Mamaroneck, N. Y, later in
The month.
Leo Diegel. national professional golf
champion, who led the field in the
British open for two rounds, may be in
Washington next week. He talked
with Alex Douglas of Washington on the
telephone the other day and said II
time permitted he would like to come
to Washington to play Columbia and

Relies on Right
Weight Balance

In recent articles about the driving
methods Of Abe Mitchell, readers
wrote me that Mitchell could not
possibly take his driving stance with
his weight on the balls Of his feet
and hit the ball correctly. They YER
said he would fall forward. But
Mitchell does take that stance. So
does Bobby Jones. 1 doubt If any,
one has ever seen Jones fall forward
when he drove.
There is a bit Of give to Jones'
knees, too, when addressing the ball.
But watch his weight as he plays the
drive, as a group of us did at Brae

One of the best track coaches in

jump and throw the weights at the
University Of Illinois.
When the Orange and Blue won
their eleventh outdoor conference

western University stadium, it must
have been very discouraging to the
other track mentors Of the Big Ten.

At top his weight is back OF his
