can hit that ball so successfully. Their
muscles react automatically to the prop
er growing of the club and they are not
bothered by all the numerous details
thrown in They stand up and swing
naturally and the club takes natural
groove"
Inasmuch as DR.. Taylor has reduced
his handicap from 10 to 5 within the
short space Of couple OF years, MS
theory of the game is interesting. He is
convinced that growing of the swing is
necessary, that intelligence, in the usual
sense, is not an aid to fine golf, but that
golf brains are an asset. BY "gon brains"
he means the faculty of saving strokes
in situations where the man lacking in
golf brains might toss away couple Of
strokes.
With 200 entries already in hand and
with a flood of entries sure to come in
today and tomorrow, Chairman Paxton
of the golf committee of the Washington
Golf and Country Club thinks the entry
list for the tournament next week may
go to the 800 mark before the dead line
at 6 o'clock tomorrow evening. Posi-
lively no entries will be accepted after
o'clock tomorrow, and pairings will be
made Immediately so they may be an
nounced in the newspapers Of Sunday
morning. The, tourney starts Tuesday
with the first half of the qualifying
play. The field is to be split into two
sections, with half qualifying Tuesday
and the balance scheduled to play
Wednesday.
Among the prominent players already
entered in the event are Albert r. Mac
Kenzie and Donald woodward of Co.
lumbia former winners of the tourney;
Frank K. Roesch of Washington, winner
last year; Maurice j. Mccarthy, jr., win
ner three years ago; Miller B. Stevin-
son, the District amateur champion;
Dick Wilson, last years runner-up, and
Henry D. Nicholson, the club champion.
Albert Mackenzie played the course
yesterday in IA strokes in game with
DrS. McGovern and Bradley and Lester
c. Pate. Chairman Paxton is making
every effort to balance the fields on the
two qualifying days so the scores turned
in one day will not be appreciably lower
than those turned in on the other quail
flying day. To date, however, many of
the better players have asked that they
be permitted to qualify on the last quail
flying day.

holder of the junior club title, tied for

~ HILADELPHIA, April 25.-
- The setting for brilliant,
and possibly, record-break-
\ ing achievements by two Of
Americas foremost young ath-
leteS, Barney Berlinger of Penn
Sylvania and Leo Lermond of the
Boston A. A., shared the spotlight
with team ambitions today in the
opening program of the thirty
sixth annual Pennsylvania relay
carnival.
Berlnger, strapping young all-around
star, with no particular opposition in
sight unless it was forthcoming from
Bob Todd of Indiana, figured to take
substantial crack at his own carnival
record of 1928 points in the decathlon
II not the American record of 7,784.69
points, set by Ken Doherty of Detroit.
The Pennsylvania ace was on an all-day
shift, starting at 10 am. and winding
up at Sal pm.
Lermond, just back from an Aus
tralian tour, had his eye on Tommy
Connects 35-year-old world record of
minutes 245 seconds for the three-quar-
ter-mile run. The hard-running Boston
A. A. star faced minor opposition for his
record attempt, but an impressive per-
Torrance today would boost his prospects
of victory tomorrow in another special
race at one mile with Ray Conger, the
slim 1owan as rival
Lermond and Conger both were pro-
nounced ready for an attack tomorrow
upon the worlds mile mark of 4:102s,
set by Paavo Nurmi in Sweden seven
years ago.
Ohio States entry in the fastest
human" contest, George Simpson, was
the outstanding individual star in the
fine galaxy Of relay talent.

''battle of the century" and wholesale
record breaking was promised today as

track and field stars invaded Des
Moines for the twenty-flrst renewal of
the Drake relay games.
Opening the meet at 10 o'clock, the
high school entrants were to start the
qualification process for the finals. This
afternoon the college and university stars
faced preliminaries in the various track
and field events.
Interest here has conferred around the
dash OF the century" which will bring
together Cy Leland and Claude Bracey,
the Texans whose rivalry in the 100
yard dash has created sensational races
in the Southwest's early Spring meets.
They will find formidable opposition
from Eddie Tolan, Michigan Negro ace,
and Meier of Iowa State.
Preliminaries in the field events
were to bring Tom Warne of Northwest
ern against a strong field of competitors
who hoped to end his dominance in the
