Boerner, a right handed pitcher

weighs 182 when in fettle. He was
the Sally Leagues most effective
singer a year ago and for several
seasons has pitched consistently
brilliant minor league ball.
It is reported that the Birm-
ingham Barons were hot on
Larry's trail before the Chatta'
nooga Club announced his pur
chase. Manager Zeb Milan was
thoroughly impressed by his form
last season and had intended put

The Washington times., 1930-08-02

Take the case of Arthur B.
Thorn, popular Woodmont pro,
for instance. For years Thorn has
been playing herabouts in all the
Journeys for which pros are eli
gible without more than ordinary
success. However, in the last
year he has leaped to the fore
as one of the most consistent
scorers among the men who fol-
low the profession actively.
Counted among Thorn's
most recent successes this
year were two outstanding
achievements. The first Of
these was qualification for
the U. s. Open at InterIachen
and the second was a SINH
lar performance for the Ma
tional p. G. A. tournament,
which is to be held next
month at the Fresh Meadow
Club, Long Island.
A bad first round in the open
at Interlachen kept Arthur from
making the grade of eligibility
for the final SO holes Of play.
The terrific heat and an errant
putter contributed greatly to his
50 on his first trip around the
Minneapolis layout, but on the
second day he got q neat ~.
Two rounds such as this would
have got him in nicely.
On Tuesday of this week Thorn
convincingly demonstrated the
golfing stuff of which he is made
in the mid-Atlantic qualifying
test for the P. G. A. at Indian
Spring, After requiring q 73 for
his morning round, due to sour
finish on the last four holes, Ar
thur found himself tied with Ro-
land Hancock for fifth place, a
stroke behind George Diffenbaugh
and Bob Barnett and four strokes
behind Ralph Beach and Warner
Mather. And he was only a
stroke ahead Of the long-hitting
Glenn Spencer.
Instead of being discour-
aged at his position, Thorn
immediately set out 30 burn
NJ the course. He reached
the turn in 80, two strokes
below par, and negotiated the
incoming half Of the trip i'm
exactly par figures, Offsetting
two holes in which he was
one over par with brides.
This gave him a SO and q
142 total, exactly par for SO
holes.
Meanwhile Diffenbaugh. Bar.
nett and Mather were having
trouble, as was Spencer. Han.
