Pinehurst, N. C., March 14 Pe-- Nineteen year old Helen Hicks, the siege gun of womens golf from Hewlett, L. l.. has acquired snappy follow through in a new field.
 Between record breaking perform ances on Carolina links this winter she has blossomed out as a hard working real estate saleswoman. She has done well for a youngster and will accompany team of American women stars to England this spring on money she has earned.
 A self-reliant young person, bent on achieving future golf successes as a corollary to progress in business. Miss Hicks embarked on a commer cial career of her own choice.
 My parents were not unwilling V she says, yet they did not think it necessary for me to take a position. But I have so many golf ambitions that it will take plenty of money 10 attempt them. That money l want to earn, and then I will be ever so much more satisfied if I do get somewhere in golf"
 But Helen already is Somewhere and figures to go lot further in d hurry. Last year. she fairly dazzled in Florida winter tournaments, got in some good licks in major summer affairs and won the Canadian won- ems title.
 This winter Miss Hicks won the mid-south tournament with ease, taking medal honors with 79 over the Pine Needles course. one of the longest and snaggiest in the south, Any women who can break so over it is playing top notch golf. In match play Helen was not taken beyond the fourteenth green.
 In the St. Valentines tournament at Pinehurst she again was medal ist and won the meet in a big field never going above so and whacking out the course record of 73 in. one round.
 Helen will be the baby of the women's team that will play in Eng land in May. but she should prove a lusty infant. Six consecutive rounds at Pinehurst for which she averaged v testify to that.
 One of the rounds, on which the Long Island girl had a 70, was over the No. ? championship course, a cruel layout for women players.

Y GYM NOTES

The town or NlnSted mas long been famous for colorful stories about climbing fish, eight legged calves and many strange incidents, but it has nothing on the local "" gym for queer happenings that would seem quite tragic, if it were not for their ludicrous cndings.
 For example, a talented musician steps up to the locker attendant at the "Y", purchases a towel and bar of soap, trips blissfully downstairs to the bathroom, steps under the shower head and turns on the juice. discovers d few minutes later he has forgotten to remove his clothes.
 And again another member comes apparel. puts on his gym suit. goes upstairs to the gymnasium and eX- ercises for about an hour, comes down, takes q shower. dons his clothes, leaves the building. Returns in an hour. remarks to the locker attendant Good morning. About time for my morning exercise, bet ter let me have towel and soap"
 Then we have one of the oldest members of one of our city depart ments who attends the volley ball talkfests on Tuesday and Friday mornings. officially appointed score keeper and during the excitement of q prolonged volley swallows his false teeth. and to this day mem- bers of either team have yet 10 learn what the score was and who won the game.
 Recently Frank Schade, "Y' gen. oral utility secretary, while working at the main desk in the lobby heard what he thought was furious click ing of worries coming from the direc- ton of the billiard room as if some- ono was doing their best to smash the balls. Rushing down he found no one playing pool. and still the sounds were very audible. and final gymnasium he discovered Howard Stearns going through his weekly daily dozen.
 And again Jack Wrinkle playing volley ball could not understand what was holding him down until he discovered he is standing on his own foot.
 The most amusing incident Of all happened the other morning during d yolley ball game. Some one on the opposite side of the net hit the ball over in Harry Blew's general direction, the latter connected with the inflated pill so hard that it hit the ceiling with a terrific report and Harry in frantic effort to hit the down-rushing ball, missed. and It knocked him for q goal. Willing hands removed what was left of Blews to the locker-room and under the gentle administ rations Of his close friend and adviser H. Stearns, vas able to 20 home.
 Some time ago some unholy and malicious rascal sprinkled itching powder into II. Stearns gym clothes and it was noticed on the gym floor that day. Howard put in very busy morning, trying to play volley ball with one hand while the other han ) vas busllY engaged elsewhere.

 The Maple Ends have been going in good form when the Endee stars have been in the lineup.
