Walter Hagen Broke Down English Class Distinction,
Gaining Brother Professionals Golf Equality

the fourteenth, a drive and a
brassie, boring into the wind,
never carried the bum, 325 yards
from the tee. A third, a topped
brassie, jumped over the burn,
ran along the hard seaside fair
way onto the green, 40 feet away;
and thereupon Sir Walter, with
destiny dogging his trail, holed
the putt for par-and a British
crown was his.
A perfect 36 was the challenge
when he stood on the tenth tee
at Hoylake in 1924. The leaders
were in. But Hagen was off to
the races with perfect shot
there from that tee, and his 36
to win was one of the great
scores o. all time. Once more
the celestial fire blazed forth;
the elements and nature stood by
on his final march that day;
and he was handed the historic
old cup for the second time.
Thrashed by CompstOn
The giant Compston tore him
apart in :. 72-hole match by Is
End IT in 1923, ten days before
the British open. Little cared
Hagen; it simply goaded him on
to one of the greatest triumphs.
Brains won that title.
"Keep away from 6's," he
warned.
He did just that. Four times
on the long fifteenth he tore into
a full spoon shot and wound up
in a shallow cross bunker guard
ing the green. To play a brassie
and go over meant disaster and
a 6 or 7. Sarazen tried it-and
finished second But Hagen?
Each time he Clipped dead, for
6-footer was dead to him in
1928.
Hagen's victory at Muirfield in
1929, with the final round in a
gale, saw him rise to his greatest
heights. He took his first six in
IA holes of British champion
ship golf, and the third hole in
the morning at the dog-leg eighth.
But leading the pack in the after
noon, he scored a birdie 3, taking
chances when mistake might
cost him the title. He barked a
command at the marshals; and
the 10000 spectators moved back
in amaZement.
Three Daring Shots
The stage was set, and across
the trampled grass-groWn tree
dotted moor, agen's ball
wheeled it's flight. Here was golf
daring beyond imagination.
Treacherous rough, sea grassland
Johnny Farrell on his heels. But
the fates walked hand in hand
with a champion that round, and
the master Snowman played out
the greatest three shots ever seen
in a tournament.
A drive, 300 yards; mashie,
IS feet from the cup; a putt that
dropped-and walter Hagen,
sometime holder of all the i'm
portant championships in this
golf-made world, had won. his
fourth British crown.

son Of American golf strobe across
the fairwayS of that tight little
isle and threw his lance full and
fair against that monstrous old

go down in history. He walked
through front doors.
First British Test Flop
And why not? His conduct was
that of a gentleman; his game
matched that of the greatest
masters of all times. The locker
rooms of Great Britain, after
Hagen came across, became the
rendezvous of pro, amateur and
gentlemen alike. He taught them
that professionals had first names
as well as surnames; and he did
it without pomp or ceremony, and
made them like it.

new hockey rules are on the
books of the National Hockey
League today. At a meeting of
the board of governors of the
league last night the following
changes were made:
I'm future the crease in front
of the goal where an opposing
player cannot stand will be
eight feet wide and five feet
deep.
Hereafter a player may stop
flying puck with his hand
but he will suffer the usual
twO-minute penalty should be
hold the puck more than three
seconds.
"A 1O-minute or a match
penalty may be imposed on any
player who hereafter touches
or holds a referee with his
hands or his stick"
The first change, of course,
is a great break for the goalie
inasmuch as it gives him a bet
ter view. The second should also
help the defense but it may also
speed up the attack. The third
is obviously an attempt to ban
rowdyism.

GULL, PAC|N|
MARK NEAR
OBLIVION
BY DANNY GILL

When Mrs. Evelyn Ream and
Hokie Smith resume their duckpin
match with Baltimore's Anna and
Walter Miller, at Lucky Strike,
Saturday night, more than mere
victory will be at stake.
Unless the Washington team
collapses entirely, or the visitors
roll super scores, the Ream-Smith
duo appears sure winners. All
Evelyn and Hokie have to worry
about is whether or not they can
maintain their pace for the next
five games.
Will Break Record
If they can, they'll break the
new world record for 10-game
mixed doubles, established in Oc-
tober by Lorraine GULL and Ollie
Pacini, which in turn broke a
mark of a years duration set by
Violet Holmes and Hap Franz.
At the end of the first block
OF the record set rolled by Miss
GULL and Pacini, they had 1927.
This included a 637 set for her
and $50 for Ollie. The second
half saw them drop S pins for
1922, in which Miss GULL rolled
q 598 and her partner a 624, CIV
ing them a 10-game total of 2,449.
Smith and Mrs. Ream have a
1926 for their first block which is
one less than the Gulli-Pacini first
block but four more than the lat
ter pairs second block. In getting
the 1926, Mrs. Ream rolled a $40
set which included a 81, SO and
101 game along with her 1875 and
118.
NOT INDICATIVE
While this score is not at all
bad for a woman, it is not indica-
tive of Mrs. Ream's true skill
since she has surpassed 400"
twice this season for three games
and barely missed the charmed
circle on another occasion.
"Hokie" on the other hand had
686, a pace which is plenty hard
to maintain. He shot lat, 125,
IA, $50 and 120. Even should he
drop off a slight bit, it is reason
able to assume that Mrs. Ream
will better her score in Saturdays
second block.
So if you want to be able to say
you have really seen a record be-
ing broken, just HE yourself to
Lucky Strike and it's a pretty
safe bet your trip will not have
been in vain.
