 New York, Nav t.Pl-GeorSe Non Elm Of Detroit has rIayed in two Walker Cup contests and has not yet appeared on the losing side in q match.
 He finished all square with Major '. Q. Hezlet at St. Andrews in 1926 but with Jess SWeetscr as a partner routed Major Hczlct and Robert Harris.
 Two years ago Won Elm took closely contested singles match from pr. William Tweddcll. former British amateur champion. and again join- ing forces with SNec;scr in the four homes he aided in subduing pr. Twcddell and Phil Perkins. the Brit ish amateur champion at the time, by tor-heavy score.
 Non Elm will miss SWcetsor more than any Of his colleagues for Cap tain Bobby Jones had already de- cided that this brilliant pair should again make up one Of the American fourSomes. He called George and Jess the most tormIdabIe fOurSOmC continuation l have ever seen"
 The Detroiter, playing then from California. won the 1926 amateur championship Of the United States. defeating Bobby Jones, two up and one 10 play, in one Of the most son. sation championship golf matches on record.
 Non Elm's name Is frequently found in the leading players ln open events at home and abroad, He tied for fourth in the United open in 1928 and 1922 and in l9@6 tied for third in the British open,
 Bobby Jones has made no an nouncoment Of the paIrings for the foursomcs, but Non Elm probably will draw George Voist as his part ncr to replace the absent svcetscr.
