MEXICO TO CONTROL
AMATEUR ATHLETICS
Department for Development of
Sports Created by National
Government.

MEXICO CITY, January 9 P.-
w Amateur athletics in Mexico,
which have developed without
supervision to a somewhat surprising
degree of efficiency, was brought under
central direction and guidance January
i, the National Council of Physical
Education taking over development of
all amateur sports.
Creation of this department for the
athletic development of Mexico is
traced directly to President Abelardo L.
Rodriguez and his great love for and
interest in all kinds of sports. Shortly
after becoming provisional president
this Fall the President initiated the
move to provide federal direction and
encouragement for all kinds of sports.
Congress has been asked to appropri-
ate 100000 pesos to organize the ma
tional council, and establish branch Of
fees in every State capital.

Harvard, Princeton Reconciled
But for Two Years at Time
no other official statement was forth

MO other official statement was forth
IN coming from the athletic au-
thorities of either university, but
it was believed that the ever-grow-
ing sentiment on the part OF graduates
and undergraduates Of both, coupled
with financial considerations, resulted
in the restoration of the big three"
in Eastern collegiate foot ball.
With the advent of Dartmouth on the
schedule of all three, athletic observers
were pointing out today that with the
reconciliation between Harvard and
Princeton a new big four" had been
formed Princeton and Dartmouth an
nounced foot ball games with each
other last week.
However. the agreement for only two
early Nc .ember games indicates that
Harvard has not withdrawn from its
stand which was an official factor in
the break-that of refusing to accept
Princeton on the same basis as yale
by rotating final games, and to enter
into more than two-year agreements At
time. ~

PHILADELPHIA, January 9.-The

game being in 1893, when both were

eral days ago, Bozie missed his game
with the French Eagles and both were
dropped. Usage Pros conquered the
Eagles on the occasion Of Berger's first
absence, but in a return game the fol-

up, the Frenchies routed the Usage
quint. Yesterdays loss, sans Berger,
was to the Passen Pros by 81 to %.
Justine Nicholson, which dropped its
first game and then won four straight,
has not been without Berger's services
yet, but his value to a team never was
more effectively demonstrated than yes

comment, I could see he intended to
give everything he had to the job of

Bobby Jones after his four-crown

Anyway" he said in reply to a
query, "I'll be out there hustling to the
last putt. At least I'll give the old
game all I've got"
There is one angle Of Sarazen's play
that is worth recounting. His ability to
recover from sand traps with the heavy
soled niblick he uses is SO marked that
in his match with Ouimet he pulled off
one of the most unusual plays ever
known to golf
Facing certain green, which sloped
to heavy underbrush just beyond, and
not knowing the exact distance of the
shot, Sarazen deliberately played to a
bunker to the left of the green, calling
the shot in advance.
And from that bunker" Ouimet said
later, "he almost holed his recovery"

1888 Test.


COLF is the hardest of all games to
" figure in advance; form and touch,
timing and mental attitude can
change so quickly from day to day.
Luck can play a leading role A vital
putt drops in-or quivers on the np-or
hops in and then out.
Good lies and bad lies-good breaks
and bad breaks-can make or wreck.
Sarazen will train for the campaign
of 1888 just as he did for the season
of 1932-the championship season.
He has built himself 22-ounce driv-
er. which is fine training for hand and
wrist development-and for the swing
ing idea.
He is smart enough to know that
hand and wrist strength play a big
part in any golf swing.
Gene also expects to have his stocky
legs ready for the long hike; freshness
can play big part down the stretch.
He worked for weeks, running up and
down outdoor steps. to have his legs
ready for the grind last Spring, and in
each case he felt just as fresh in the
fourth round as he did in the first.
The double open champion has a
game which knows no weak spot. He is
long and straight off the tee with an
apparent minimum of effort. He Is a
fine iron player and one of the greatest
bunker players have ever seen.
For example, in his match with Fran
els Ouimet, Gene was in nine traps, vet
down in one putt nine times and on
several occasions he almost holed his
recovery shots. He is also much i'm
proved putter, with smooth, even
touch.
AS he keeps In condition throughout
the year, he seems to be as completely
equipped as one can be for the new
road.
Above all, he will have more conf
dence in 1888 than he ever had before.
He has thrown aside the changing
moods Of overdepression and over
optimism he knew too often from 1922
to 1882.
The Big Gamble.
CARZEN expects to take his shot at
~ the British Open once more and he
will be the leading favorite, with a
good, sound chance to win.
He will have rougher going at Chi
cago in the United States Open. where
he will find such stars as DIN and
Mortie Dutra, Walter Hagen, Craig
Wood, Bill Burke, Fred Morrison, Denny
Shute, Harry Cooper and a flock of
younger talent coming on.
| The American test is now much
harder than the British test. The days
of Vardon, Taylor and Braid have pass
ed-and no younger stars have come
along to fill the gap.
The field, in these big championships,
is now beginning to look in Sarazen's
direction as 1t once worried about Bobby
| Jones.
Any factor which helps to scatter
concentration on the milan job can be
important. Walter Hagen and Bobby
Jones have won more than one big
championship for this reason, as the
| leading contenders began to play them
instead of playing golf.
This stocky, broad-shouldered, deep
| chested, strong-legged and strong
armed Italian with the quick smile, the
cool head and the stout heart will be
something to beat any time he moves
| out in defense Of his two crowns.
