GOLF FEMPERORS
FELL HEAVILY
TH|SYEAR

In no golf season Of memory
have so many royal heads fallen
into the basket reserved for de-
capitated kings and queens. The
game has become so big, has
grown so worldwide in aspect
that player apparently must
possess the skill and calibre of a
Bobby Jones to escape the de-
scending axe nowadays.
Except in the isolated case Of
Enid Wilson. the big muscle girl
who has taken Joyce Wethered's
place in the affections of British
golfers, no other reigning mon
arch was able to continue her or
his regime through another year.
But even the formidable Enid was
not immune from a spanking, al
belt she got it on this side the
Atlantic while competing in our
national championship at Salem
Had she been chastised by
Helen Hicks or Mrs. Glenna Col
lett Ware or some other of our
recognized stars of the links Enid
perhaps wouldn't have minded
much, but she had to bear up
under the humiliation of being
expelled by a girl whose name of
Charlotte Glutting is probably
totally unknown in the Island
Kingdom.
Armour First to Fall
In every other instance the
wearer of the jeweled coronet had
it knocked cleanly off her or his
brow. The first to fall was
Tommy Armour, who lost his
British open championship to
the adventuring Gene Sarazen.
Not satisfied with his remark
able exploit at Sandwich, Sarazen
came home and lifted the Ameri-
can open crown off the head of
Billy Burke, the silent man of
Greenwich.
For the moment Gene became
a king killer all the other Wearers
of the purple had hard time of
it.. Tom Creavy had his profeS-
sional championship sceptre taken
from his grasp by the noun
famous Olin Dutra, who, without
doubt, is COLTS latest sensation.
Van VIE Is Successor
Beside dethroning Creavy the
Spanish heavyweight succeeded |
Smith as Metropolitan !
open champion and he came very |
close to winning the Western
open title. Mac Smith also lost
his Long Island open crown to
Walter Kozak and others who
were deprieved of their regal
robes were:
Helen Hicks who was succeeded |
as national Women's champion by |
Miss Virginia Van VIE.
Walter Hagen who was sue
ceeded by Harry Cooper as Can
adian open champion.
Ed Dudley who was succeeded
by Walter Hagen as Western open !
champion.
Francis Ouimet who was sue
ceeded by Ross Somerville as ma
tional amateur champion.

Smoke and Fire

Although all four National
League baseball clubs whose
names were connected with the
recent rumor of a big trade
impending in the older circuit
have denied anything is in the
making, there must be some
truth to the reported manipu-
lationS.
President John Heydler, one
of the oldest heads of the
league, knows that in order to
keep up interest in his cir
cult, the teams must be better
balanced, and the sooner the
American League comes to the
same conclusion, the sooner the
number of losing clubs will
diminish.
Ban Johnson, organizer and
first president of the American
League. was a great hand to
see to it that strength was
we'll distributed. This was essen
tial in the early Gays OF the
younger organization in order
to keep it from sagging in the
middle Or at either end. 1t
seems to us it is equally as
essential in the perilous times
through which we are pass
ing-financial times to be eX-
plicit-as the number of los
ing clubs this past season
atteStS.
Where there is so much
smoke, there must be some
fire, and despite the wholesale
denials, you may expect some
thing to come of that four
club trade rumor in the Ma
tional.
