Stanford Golfer Stroke in Van
of Two Chicagoans in First
Half of Test.
BY PAUL NICHOLSON,


~ oCKFoRD, Ill, August ga
- stampede was on today for
qualifying berths in the West
ern Amateur Golf Champion
ship Tournament Finding the range
of the fairways and traps with almost
unerring accuracy yesterday, the field
was SO close that it appeared as if
pair Of 75s in the 36-hole test would
be the highest limit to clinch a place
among the 80 who will continue the
battle for the crown now worn by Don
Moe of Portland, Ore.
Moe was the only safe man in the
record field of 178 starters, automati-
cally qualifying as champion.
HARRY EICHELBERGER, Stanford
i L University senior, was out in front
of the closely punched field in the
medalist campaign. Banging magic
pitch shots, he toured the championship
Rockford Country Club stretch in So
$40. to clip par by shot.
Two Chicagoans of note, George Daw-
son and Johnny Lehman, pressed him
with Ills, while six others, including
shotmakers like Gus Morelsnd of Dal-
las, Tex, and Dick Martin, Chicago
district champion, trailed with TBS
There was flock of 74s and 75s just
to toss the entire struggle into a grab
bag affair.
Charles Seaver, another Stamford
University star of golf and foot ball
fame, was among the 73 shooters with
Charles "Chick" Evans, jr.. Chicago,
eight times holder CT the title along
with almost every crown in his heydey,
wasn't SO far away with rs.
A S the field lined up for the final
IA 18-hole qualifying test today,
fearful eye was cast toward the
twelfth hole, long uphill stretch bios
soming into long narrow and danger
GUS green.
Many found their nemesis on that
hole yesterday, notably Dawson, who
came to that spot three under par, got
tangled up with the traps and wound
up with Z. Rodney Bliss, Nebraska
State champion, took an on the
same hole.
The only semblance of an upset in
the first days round was the play of
Keefe Carter, Oklahoma City, former
champion of the event. Carter, playing
with Eichelberger, took an 80 and fol-
lowed through by taking a train for
home.

EEW men Of base ball have gene
L from the game with fortunes.
Ty Cobb is startling exception.
Few old ball players have found life
so kind to them as to vouchsafe
to them financial ease of the more
luxurious kind.
Harry Harper is an exception. OF
course, you know who he is. Harper
was q left-handod pitcher. He was
with the winning Yankees
in 1921. He was with Washington.
No wonder like Waddell or Plank.
But a pretty clever hurler was
Harper.
Came the day when pitching was
more than hard work. Harper look
ed around. He saw industry hum
ming. He started a contracting
business. He still has it, doing
mighty well, at Hackensack. N. j.
Contracting isn't Harry's entire
interest. He still likes to 60 out
and toss ball. But his hobby is
politics. He has run for office. Tried
to become State Senator. And he
says he isn't finished. Warren Bar
bour, former amateur heavyweight
champion, got to the United States
Senate from New Jersey, and Har-
per believes that what Barbour did
the star of the Harpers can accom-
plish.
Smiling Harry, he is-an occa-
sional visitor to the offices OF the
Yankees in New York. Need a
Young left-hander?" It's his stand
ing josh with Ed Barrow.
