Dick Iunn Is Jntried,

n FARTIN MCCARTHY is manu-
lN factured golfer. The swarthy
Columbia star, improving stead
lily over the last three years. has come
to be known as one of the better
scrappers among the simon pures
around Washington. A man who has
the right mental slant on the game
and one who Is never licked until the
winning putt raps the bottom of the
tin Mccarthy lacks that dynamic
brilliance of Peacock or Maury Nee.
But he is in there Scrapping all the
time. A man with fine competitive
heart, and the nerve to try to bring
eff the winning shot, Mccarthy can
qualify at Cincinnati if he gets all his
shots working.
Dick Lunn, 18-year-old youngSter,
who came to Washington from Maine
and, after being hopelessly out of the
sectional qualification trials with first
round of 81, came back with brilliant
"a to qualify is an untried quality in
major championships. Dick Is one Of
those youngsters who is capable OF
heights of golfing greatness and depths
of mediocrity. Tall and strong, he can
wallop the ball a long distance, and
his chipping and putting, when he Is
right, are as good as that OF any man.
A streak of sustained brilliance back
in June brought to Dick the Chevy
Chase Club championship, in the course
of which he tied the amateur record Of
81. His game is more attuned to
lengthy courses than to the shorter
tricky affairs But he can come through
with the needed shot, as he proved at
Chevy Chase back in May when he
played a great spoon shot from the
rough to the green at the first extra
hole to whip Maury Nee. Furthermore,
he proved his courage again at Colum-
bia last week. for his final round Of "a,
when he knew he needed just that,
would have tried the heart of an iron
OK Time after time young Dick pulled
himself out Of situations that looked
impossible to overcome. His "a was
no miracle of steady. sustained golf.
1t was series of brilliant recoveries
from bad spots. in which failure any
where along the route might have
dumped him into the ''also rams"

Three Seasoned Campaigners.

DUT for Miller B. Stevinson. Co.
n lumbia's great veteran, and for
Roger Peacock, the youthful Dis
trict and Maryland champion. and for
black-thatched Martin F. Mccarthy,
the amateur championship will be no
new experience. StevinSon is a vet
eran of these title tilts. For him no
knocking of the knees when he steps
out on the first tee at KenWood He
has seen too many of them over the
eight or nine years in which he has
been trying for the amateur crown. and
he knows that the amateur champion
ship Is just like any other golf tourna-
ment. If YOU go out and do your stuff
you will go as far as the next man.
Roger Peacock and Martin Mccarthy
will be playing in the amateur cham
pionShip for the second consecutive
year. Both of them. along with Stew
inSon and six others from Washington,
played in the tournment last year at
Baltimore. Peacock finished only two
shots behind qualification with 4 So
hole total of 153, when it took Isl to
make the grade. This fine-playing
youngster from Indian Spring. one of
the finest shotmakers ever developed
around Washington, is ranked by mcst
folks as a coming prospect who may
60 far in the national. He has grabbed
two of the major titles to be won in
this sector over the past year. and has
proved himself in the fierce fire of hot
competition so completely that even an
amateur championship should not stir
the Peacock emotions up to the nervous
frenzy which will bar his qualification
Roger is possessed of great poise on the
golf course In past years little things
like missed puts annoyed him no little,
but this year he has taken unto him
self considerable poise Of the kind
which is badly needed in big tourna
ment

"A M. Bell, writes me that he used
to think that there was not
time enough in the swing to con-
sciously attend to the details Of the
pivot, such as the locking of the
right hip on the backswing, the
lateral hip shift for the forward
swing and the locking Of the left hip
for hitting against on the swing
down and through Che ball.
Then it came to him that these
movements are more deliberate than
the arm movements As far as speed
is concerned, hip action is related
to arm action as the action of the
hub of a wheel is related to the
rim. If you mark spot on the
