A fighter is just another man
plying a trade and he's got to

You will say that doesn't help
the customer at the gate. No, It
doesn't, but by eliminating for

you'll hear Of so few fouls they'll
almost be antiques by the time
the next one occurs.
Start with the fighters. Give
them to understand that a foul
is no more q part of boxing
than is a vaulter's pole. His
mind and limbs must be trained
so as to keep his blows up and
his action must be quick
enough so that if his opponent
should move his body so that a
foul is imminent, he can divert
his blow or even pull it.
The fouls have got to go, and
the only way to eliminate them
is to make each one the last one,
so far as the individual boxer is
concerned.

In brief, InterIachen asks
for a series of golf shots and,
by the looks Of things, it will
get them from practically no
body.
Jones can do it. He has every
thing to lose in this tournament
except the thing he can never
lose, prestige, and all he can win
is worldwide recognition as the
man the world has recognized him
to be these several years-the
greatest of all golfers. The first
two-title man England has known
in 40 years, as a result OF his
recent victories at st. Andrews
and Hoylake. he can break all
records by repeating his 1929 per
formance in this Championship
so the burden of proof will be
upon him tomorrow.
But this won't stop him from
trying to hit the perfect golf shot
every time he steps UP to the
ball and so it may be that his

But this is only the day be-

most theatrical of all the ma
tional open golf championships,
and so Mr.. Robert T. Jones, the gen.
tleman barrister, Is Surmised to
>be the ultimate winner with Mr..
Walter Hagen, the gentleman
troubadour. highly esteemed Sec
ond choice. They are said to
hold Jones at odds of z to 5
which is not a short price. It
is downright abrupt.
Hagen, they say, is 4 to l after
doing 80 for the first nine holes
again yesterday. The winner,
therefore, ought to be either the
man who is great or the man
who only used to be great, sum-
mary that is intended to be
specific but merely succeeds in
being slightly evasive, to be alb
solutely frank about the thing.
The winner will be the
man who uses q tremendously
long tee shot to split inch
of the fairWay and q Win
chester rifle to the green.
This might be Jones, indeed,
the summation has a Singularly
suggestive sound, reminiscent OF
a description of Jones playing a
golf hole-almoSt any golf hole
and almost any time. 1t might
be Hagen, particularly the newer
and better Hagen imbued with
the spirit of uplift and altogether
q man of high purpose or some
thing; as to that, it might be al
most any one of the lat an.
nounced starters.
For it will be the man, who for
three days by the clock and 70
holes by the score card, can play
this Interlachen golf course as 1t
was designed to be played,
namely, with steel tape measure.
Those 1ashing, slashing wood
shots from the tee must be drop
ped on fairwayS that were ap-
parently laid out by a man with
q diabolical sense of economy.
They place heavy premium on
distance and an absolute burden
upon accuracy, SO that many a
golfer finds himself playing the
game as old Abner Doubleday
used to play baseball; i.e., the
first bounce is out.
BY this, I mean to suggest that
the bounce in question very often
is out in the rough, feature of
this golf course that deserves,
and, in fact, eminently earns a
powerful dissertation all by itself
To dispose of the matter sue
cinctly, they seem to have erred
on the side of liberality in this
connection. They seem to have
roughened this rough. It is high.
wide and horrific. 1t rises with,
out warning at the edge OF the
fairway and like a thief in the
flight. it turks there in ambush
and swiftly claims the unWary
for its own.
However, If the long wood shots
must be fool-proof, the second
shot demands a control no less
meticulous in it's nicely. The
velvety greens are minute and the
insidious menace of the spiders
web knows traps of no finer in
genuity.
