I've seen a long horned

Col. Ike Pryor paused
and cast a meditative eye
upon the pair of broad
horns above a steers face

desk, seemed to dominate
the office. Tt is in what

AS president of the big

nothing of activities of
other kinds, the colonel
has been a good deal Gin

ably received more letters
from youngsters wanting

still, there's one thing

Col. Ike paused a good

there on the wall in placid

BRITISH REFUSE
 AMERICAN PLANE

London. = (UP) The fastest
 plane in Britain. except for the Schneider Trophy machines. is for
 sale, but nobody wants it because 1t is American.
 The machine, Lockheed. is the i one in which the late and famous
 Captain Glen Kidston beat all ex-
 isting records from London to
 Captown when, starting on March I31. 1881, he flew 7,500 miles to Capetown in six days. eleven hours, lat an average speed of 131 miles an hour. Previously Con February 21 of the same year) Kidston beat the record for a London to Paris flight by flying 210 miles in 72 minutes--an average of 175 miles an hour.
 Kidston's machine can fly faster than any other machine in Britain
 (except Schneider Trophy ma- chines) at les sthan 5000 feet up. Not far from the ground, it can
 do 205 miles an hour. Air Force
 machines have to climb to heights above 5000 feet before they can attain such speed.
 Lieutenant owen Cathcart- Jones, whc pilots the white and red record breaker for the Kidston es- tate executors, told the United
 Press that he had flown all over
 England in an attempt to sell the
 plane. Because 1t Is American,
 however. 1t cannot be granted q commercial license enabling 1t to carry passengers or freight for profit. Because 1t is a five-seater. no private individual in these hard times wants to take the machine because of the cost of upkeep.

 GREENWICH PLAY


 Greenwich, Conn. June 30-An all-metropolitan semi-final was as- sured for the Eastern Interscholas- tic golf championship at the Green wich Country Club yesterday when Charles H. Mayo Jr, of Flushing, and St Paufs School, Garden City; Keenan Morrow of Malba, L. l., and Choate school; Bill Dear, of Great Neck, l.. l.. and Hun school; and George Van Nostrand. of Great Neck and Lawrenceville, came through victorious in the first and second rounds of the championship flight.
 A casual observer would have thought this, and not the tourney at Hackensack, N. J., was the met one of the most promising of the districts youngsters, eliminated Frank McClintock, of Choate in the morning. uS, and produced an almost unbeatable brand of play in the afternoon to defeat Jack Mallow, of Andover, 4 and 2. Mayo needed only two pars on the un- played seventeenth and eighteenth for 72 on this 6, 521-yard lay out.
 Brilliant as he was Mayo did not completely overshadow the other three semi-finalists. A dangerous ri- val for the three time medalist looms in Dear, New Jersey State scholastic champion. In the morn ing Dear hooked up with Howard B. Marvin, of Brazil and Lawrence vile, and trounced the South Amer ican, 6 and 4. while in the after noon he experienced little difficult ty in putting out Arthur Rogers, Scituate, Mass, and Andover, 3 and 2. He lost few strokes to par dur ing the days rounds.

 Farrell will be fighting to pro- tect the slim lead he gained in the first round yesterday when he shot a par breaking round of 35- 34-69. His lashy 69, which is q new competitive record for the course. gave him a one stroke lead over Francis Ouimet of Woodland whose 36-34-70, also broke par 72.

 Chicago, June 30.-(UP)-- Some 209 hand picked eastern in- tercollegiate track and field per- formers are now on the coast training arduously, vigorously And even assidiously for their annual run-in with the mighty men of the coast in the l. c. A. A. A. A.. games.
 The 209 are fully aware they'll be kicked. In fact. the 209 are all prepared for a new all-ttme high kicking; a kicking which will sur pass even those rugged bootings given their predecessors by Cali ing the past decade. They know the coast boys may be expected to show no mercy this year and will be out for all the points and frac- tions thereof, obtainable.
 This or several reasons. In the first place it's an Olympic year and all the boys are shooting for a berth on the American team. In the second place, this is the first time in the history of the games that the east has travelled west, and the westerners will be out to score a major slaughter before the home folks.
 And there's no reason why they shouldn't. The long trip across the country and the new surroundings are not calculated to make the customers more potent.
 No one comedies the east an out. side chance at the team trophy. Any satisfactoin 1t gains must be in the little matetr of individual championships. And have they any men who are certian winners? We'll, let's see.
 They've got Pen Hallowell. He's a Harvard, And a miller. Pen has a 4:12 2-5 mile to his credit, but that was indoors. He can get along out in the open, however. At Boston recently when, running over a track an inch deep in water, he spun 800 meters in 1858 1-5.
 Joe McCluskey of Fordham, the pretty good bet. McCluskey is something of an iron man. In a dual meet this spring he won the half mile, mile and two mile runs in the space of an hour.
 Then there's Charlie Scarlet. the ''most likely to succeed" the "most handsome" "most best dressed,"s "most popular" and "most every thing else" boy from Princeton. Charlie has yet to lose a low hurdles go this year.
 If confidence and a stout heart count for anything, Karl Warner; the brash young Yale sophomore, should be worth modest wager in the 44O. Karl, who has turned 400 meters in AT 3-5, is the same sort of runner as U. s. c. Vic williams. kIe doesn't look 80 pretty in motion, but how he fights when he hits that stretch for home!
 Harvard's captain, Red Record, is another easterner likely to be up there. This flame-thatched murder is blessed with a great pair of legs and a competitive spirit that burns 24 hours a day.
 Sinceath don't throw hammers on the coast, the eastern hammer tossers, headed by Grant Mac- Dougel of Penn. can't help but win.
 Yale, with a quartet of 13 feet four vaulters. Is likely to give trouble in that speciality.

Danny MacFayden was traded from the tail-end Red Sox to the Yankees, a team that seems destin- ed to win the American league pen- nant this year. After all the years of toiling for a second division ball club, Danny MacFayden must find life lovely now, with the prospect of sharing in the world series cut.
 But how about young { Henry Johnson and Paul Andrews. the Yankee pitchers who were sent to the Red Sox in the exchange for MacFayden?
 Andrews, a recruit, took his medicine like @ major. He has turned in couple of fine perfor- mances since joining the Fenway Fusileers.
 IT'S A CRUEL WORLD.
 Johnson, however, feels that the world has been unkind to him. His faith in justice has been rudely jolted. Henry has gone to his home at Bradenton, Fla, ostensibly to recover from an appendicitis operation he underwent during the spring training season, but really to brood and wonder.
 'I'm on the voluntarily retired list," Henry told friends in Bra- denton. ''and I may be here the rest of the year under medical treatment"
 Henry needs not only physical treatment. but mental. And you would. too, if you were traded a. way from what looks to be a cer- tain pennant winner this year. GAVE GREAT PROMISE.
 Johnson has been knocking at the door of greatnesses for seven years. He first appeared in the training camp of the Yankees in 1925. He was then only IS years old.
 Huggins liked his work. He told the youngster that he had the stuff to become one of the best pitchers in the major leagues. Year after year, Johnson has re- peated the promise of his first ap- pearance. He pitched some re- markable games, but at other times his work was only fair. Certain teams bothered him. Certain hit ters did, too.
 With lots of courage, a good curve ball and Q fast ball that had the hop that players call "take- off," Henry still could not win con- sistently. What the Yankees need ed this year was consistent pitch CT, and Mccarthy thinks he has the man in MacFayden, an experience ed campaigner.
 Returning from the 1928 world series, the Yankees were celebrat- ing their fourt straight victory over the Cardinals. Johnson sat with Huggins. Herb Pennock was in the group.
 T wish I had been given a chance to pitch in the world se- ries," said Johnson.
 To which Huggins made reply:
 Boy, I'd give plenty to have your pitching arm and youth. You've got many years of base ball ahead of you and one of the best arms lever saw"

After the beginner has become familiar with the proper grip, the next important step is the left arm.
 The left arm should be kept fair ly straight throughout the back swing and 1t is absolutely necessary that it be straight at impact. Any bend will result in heeling, topping, missing and other faults, the result of the clubhead travelling beyond or inside the intended line of flight.
 The left arm connects the hub of the swing, the left shoulder. to the club. This lengthens the swinging arc, permitting a long sweep at the ball. Any bend at the top of the backswing will result in choppy downward blow, cutting down the arc and thereby losing distance.
