might stiffen up bit for what was to
follow. Leaving there with the inten-
ton of running for the Panama Canal
they were forced to put into ATuba for
repairs, the sun having dried out the
decks and topsides during the long
lay-up, causing her to leak badly when
sailing. From here they intended to
run again for the canal after repairs
are completed, and after passing
through, decide on either California or

While.a gallery of nearly two thou

champion, yesterday Smith amazed a
small crowd by equaling the course
record with a 66. He collected nine
brides and an eagle on the round. His
second-round score, coupled with an
other par-breaking round of II Thurs
day, gave him the leadership.

proach shots were of championship
caliber, but his putting, generally the

missed nearly dozen puts of Is feet

one over par. After turning in a dis

Atlanta barrtSter tlghtened on the IN

Of New York for fifth place with 142.
A hitherto unheralded golfer from
Savannah, Farley Clark, continued his
sub-par game yesterday to equal the SO
made Thursday, and complete the sec

hind the leader with 1873.
Deadlocked for third place, four
strokes behind Smith, were Ed Dudley

N golfers are at Virginia Beach

They left the Capital last night on a
golf tour arranged by steamship COM
pany and will return Monday morning.
Included in the party are many promi-

clubs.
Farley Clark. the young Southern
professional, who finished a shot be-
hind Horton Smith yesterday in the
first two rounds of the Savannah open
championship, is brother of Archie
Clark, assistant pro at the Congressional
Country Club, and according to Archie,
is an unusually fine player. The young
Congressional pro, who is a sterling
golfer himself. modestly remarked to-
day that his brother usually plays the
Savannah course pretty we'll" mas

Clark's 36-hole score is 1885, we wonder
what he would do If he played the lay
out very" well.
This warm weather of the past four
days may be bit of premature Spring,
but the golfers of Washington believe
it is the real article, judged by the way
they have been flocking to the courses.
The first tee at any of the local clubs
these days looks like it does on a fine
May day, and most of the courses have
been thronged all day long during the
warm weather. Perhaps the weather
man has relented and has decided to
give the divot diggers a respite from
the unusually bad weather he has
| dished up during most of the Winter.

proudly called the Army and the Navy

just how far you are kidding yourself
with talk about rigid admission rules

are just about as effective in the pro-

"MIND you, Mr.. Mcclellan Cor Mr..

My views on this whole subject and

humor in the entire situation to con-
troll me-eXcept when wonder why
Army hypocrisy is distinguished from
Navy hypocrisy and all the other
brands of athletic hypocrisy by being
alone exempt from exposure by your
sardonic pen.
Il only wish the true story could be
published of the effort to get Red
Owen of Princeton to become Red
Owen of West Point; or of how Harry
Wilson of Penn State was inspired by a
yearn1ng for military glory-for that
matter how Steve Barchet of Johns
Hopkins was similarly inspired to seek
naval glory-just who first suggested
the idea, and when and where; what
was said to the Congressman who had
the necessary appointment to bestow;
just how the idea was gently waited
into the mind of the (oid grad) ex-
aiming officer that here was a good
man for the backfield if only
For that, Mr.. Mcclellan, as you
ordinarily know as well as anybody else,
is human nature when it wants some
thing badly enough, no matter what
admission rules may stand in the way.

though we did have a romantic belief
otherwise in the days when Richard

TOlley's Style
Is UnOrthOdOx
BY SOL METZGER.

Great golfers differ in certain de-
tails. But fundamentally all play
alike. Take Cyril Tolley, ranking
British amateur. At the top his po-
sition differs radically from that of
Jones. Tolly really pivots. That is,
his body rotateS at the hips, the
right turning back, the left forward.
This accounts for his unorthodoX
position at the top. To maintain
balance, to prevent himself fitting
a bit backward, Cyril uses both legs
for bracing. AS he starts back his
right leg braces. But his right hip
does not lock. So Tolley is forced
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-02-22

to balance himself in an odd way.
In short. he lets his weight go to-
ward the ball and catches 1t by
bracing with his bent left leg.
AS result most of his weight is
on his left leg at the top. It Is not
an orthodox position. His style of
pivoting is not to be recommended.
He overcomes 1t by quick straight
ening Of the left leg at the start of
his down swing. But he strokes his
ball in an orthodox manner, with
the hands.
Golf is a form game. Correct
your pivot and you viii add yardage
