Straight Off Tee

| HAT annual fixture to which a
group of Washington business
men look forward each year as
L the biggest golf event of the
season is to be played at the
Indian Spring Golf Club on october
49,. We refer to the tournament OF
the Brightwood caddies, the lads who
toted bags back in the days when the
Columbia Country Club was located
out on Georgia avenue, when half
dollar was the usual rate for carrying
40 pounds of golf clubs for Is holes,
and when Lee Harlan was the big
noise in golf hereabouts.
In those dim days slender little
black haired lad named George j. Voigt
was one of the boys who clamored for
the privilege of earning half dollar
by work that would have tired truck
driver. But Voigt wanted the half dol
lar and besides that he liked the game
of golf and between rounds of caddy1ng
he was allowed to swat a golf ball with
a makeShift stick. Today George j.
Voigt Is ranked as one OF the FIRST four
amateur golfers of the United States.
Some place him only below Bobby Jones,
George Won Elm and the present cham
pion. Harrison r. Johnston. And others
would have him just below the great
Jones.
Whatever the varying opinions may
be- there isn't any doubt that he is
one who deserves a rank near the top.
And that same George Voigt will return
to the scene of his earlier leanings on
October Is to play in the Brightwood
caddies' tournament at Indian Spring,
the course over which he won the
District amateur championship Of 1927
and had won the club invitation tour
nament twice. Not that Voigt Is a
certain winner of the caddies event:
he is not, for in the group who will
oppose him are Earl McAleer, the newly
crowned Indian Spring title holder;
M. A. Shipley, r. Cliff McKimmie, Leo
McFerhany and group of capable
golfers, any one Of whom may trounce
the "Dutchman," as they call Voigt.
Emmert Heitmuller Is president OF
the Brightwood Caddies' Association,
under whose auspices the tourney will
be held. to be followed by dinner at
the club in the evening" II 1t can be
arranged. Three club champions are
on the roll of the Brightwood caddies-
Harry Pitt of Manor, Shipley of Argyle
and McAleer of Indian Spring. Clih
McKimmie now Is assistant profess
sional at the Army, Navy and Marine
Corps Country Club, and McNerhany
is pro at the Kenwood Golf Club. The
other members of the Caddies' Associa-
ton now are respected business men
of the Capital and most OF them play
golf and are members OF private clubs.
But Voigt Is the luminary OF them all.
No matter where the "Dutchman" may
be playing, this group Of associates
always follow him. They hope that
some day he may become amateur
champion of the United States. II well
wishes will do 1t, Voigt already Is the
uncrowned champion.

AS OUTFIT GREAT,
MOR|ARTY THINKS
Reliable and ResourcefuI and
Powerful as Unit, Umpire
Asserts.
BY GEORGE MORIARTY,
Big League Umpire.

TIME Philadelphia Athletics, under
the direction of the patient and
crafty Connie Mack, are ready to
i face Chicago without makeup or
alibis.
As the team that humbled and tum-
bled the great Yankees they shape up
as one of the most compelling outfits
ever to represent the American League
In a world series.
Start with any position that suits
the fancy and one finds a team unit
that, II not powerful, is certainly re-
liable and resourceful. Mickey Cochrane
stands out as the gem Of catchers, of
this or possibly any other time. His
true greatness Is best reflected by the
fact that he has relegated Cy Perkins,
another wonder backstop. to bench duty.
The infleld, Dykes, Boley, Bishop and
Foxx, Is surpassed in Mackian history
only by the whirlwind inner rim that
claimed Eddie Collins and Jack Barry
as its keystone pivot men. Bishop and
Boley are paramount as defensive cogs,
and have played together long enough
to be twins in intuition and infield ma
nipulation.
Dykes is a finished performer at
third, while Foxx Is an ideal target for
inf1elders to throw at, and can come
up with grou IN IRIS OF .n All descriptions
opposing outfielders with their backs
against the fences.
The fiy-chasing department packs q
vicious punch defensiyely and offensive
". Simmons, Haas and Miller can
gather in liners with consumate skill
and in turn belt them between the
other fellows with reckless regularity.
Much Is expected Of Simmons In this
series. He truly occupies a place with
all the great batters since Arson and
OF the fleld and his courage may be
said to rank with his ability. Simmons
prefers to come to bat in pinch, with
men on the bases.
Bing Miller is q real Slugger who
plays ball easily and loves It, expect
him TO produce a big punch In the
series. Haas is go-getter hy-chaser
and a pitcher-pounder when he Is in
the mood.
Mack has Earnshaw, Grove. Walberg,
Quinn, Ehmke, Rommel and Shores for
the paramount task Of pitching. You
may safely class Earnshaw as one Of
the great right handlers Of the game, al
though he is in only his second big
league season. From the standpoint Of
arm and art he has everything, besides
being EXCEPTIONALLY keen and intelligent.
Grove Is a fireball king and unhittable
when right. And Walberg, plus an ex-
plosive curve ball, may be clasSed like
wise. Quinn knows all the spitballing
wiles, and Rommel says it with q
knuckle ball. Ehmke bends like a hinge
and wings baffling stuff from that angle.

the phlegmatic title holder entered the

cheerful prospect of a straight romp

Miss Collett signalized her threat In

.INS|NCERE PRAISE
inks SIR WALTER
Admires Frankness of Folk
Who Cheered Vikings
Unfortunate Strokes.
BY WALTER HAGEN,

British Open Golf Champion.
Y WISH to register myself in favor Of
honest and noisy roofing at golf
matches. I hereby give every one
4 who wishes to do so my permis-
sion to cheer whenever I miss a
shot in a bunker, short putt, or en-
counter any other misfortune which
gives them pleasure.
That's the only way we will ever ma
out who our friends are and who are in
the enenly's camp. In all my expert
ence, and in trying to size up my gall
lerieS, have never known which per-
sons were for me and which against
me, although do know a lot Of hard
things have been said, as well as lot OF
nice things. .r
They seem to have set the style in the
amateur championship at Pebble Beach.
While my first thought was that 1t was
unthinkable for people to have cheered
the misfortune of DR.. Oscar F. Willing,
have changed my mind.
Were Honest Anyway.
What we are striving for in this life
Is reality, the sitting of the unreal from
the real, and when those spectators
cheered at Pebble Beach they were at
least giving vent to an honest express
sion.
they all might have said under their
breath, when the doctor missed that
shot:
II hope he never gets out OF the
bunker"
Roofing is a well established feature
Of nearly all competition. In most
American sports, such as boxing, base
ball, foot ball, horse racing and ice
hockey, roofing helps to make the spec
tacle. But for some reason 1t Is con-
sidered bad form" to do more than
clap or cheer at golf match.
Whenever there is an error it must
be greeted in silence, or by such express
sion as Bad luck" or Sorry"
AS a matter of fact, there are just as
many people at a golf match who are
glad when the man playing their favor
lite makes an error as there are at a
foot ball game when the opposing quar-
terback fumbles the punt and the home
town boy falls on the ball. II they have
any red blood they want to see their
man win.
Praise Is Hypocrisy.
People have come into the clubhouse
and congratulated me with sweet-sound-
ing words, when I realized that what
was in their hearts was something such
as this:
you lucky stiff, you got away with
murder"
Golf is an honorable game. Among
the good players. amateurs and profess
SIGNALS, do not think there are one
half of per cent who would take any
advantage on the playing field; who
would do anything the least bit dishon-
est. So If they have decided to make
roofing honest, let's have more of it.
The next time miss one In bunker
I'll listen for the cheers from the side
lines.

preme court today in a case ap-
pealed by the Bekins Van Lines,
Inc, of San Francisco and other
similar interested parties.
The Bekins company appealed for
an injunction restraining the state
officials from collecting the tax.
They argued the tax was discrimi-
natory in that other vehicles op-
Grated on the highways for hire
were not similarly taxed. The tax
applied only to vehicles operated
between fixed terminals. Lower
courts upheld the tax.
The motor vehicle operators at
tackled the state gas tax laws as
illegal because the oil companies
were allowed to keep the money for
45 days; because the tax was n
"toll" which is forbidden under the
federal highway aid laws, and be-
cause the money was used exclusive
~ on building up rural roads where
as the operators used their buses ex-
clusively in the city.

operators an injunction restraining
