~ ROOKLINE, Mass, September
x 11.-One hundred and twen-
ty-eight pieces of light and
heavy artillery wheeled into
action today at Brookline.
They are being fired for the glory
of the amateur golf championship by
kids of 16 and IT and by veterans of
so, with large majority of the lead
ing stars still moving onward and up
ward in their heavily loaded brackets.
A young cloudburst yesterday after
noon left the course full of puddles
and pools. rivulets ana running
streams, favoring the mightier of the
hitters where there will be little run
on the ball today.
AS the second days series of
GA matches got under way, one
favorite and familiar figure was
missing.
The name, as you know by now, Is
Francis Ouimet, whose rise and fall
at Brookline tells big part of the
story of American golf.
1t is the story of a gallant sports
man and great competitor who, over
the same course, beat back the best
ball of Harry Vardon and Ted Ray
81 years ago to give golf its national
impulse.
This story carried a new chapter in
the first round when Ouimet fell be-
fore young golfer born three years
after the Bostonian's first bid for
fame-another Bobby Jones. aged ID,
from Detroit, who is typical of young
America in this ancient game.
For young Bobby Jones, aged
Is, faced Ouimet with a fine
swing, powerful hands, a cool
head, a stout heart and a put
ting blade dipped in poison.
Ouimet over this course had been
picked to outlaSt all the veterans and
yet he was the first to fall, as Chand-
Ter Egan, 1904 champion; Chick Evans.
Jesse Guilford and other old-timers
cut their way through. But they
were not facing Michigan Bobby
Jones, who halved Is cut of the 18
holes against Ouimets fine golf and
who had two puts for a II on the
final green.
Evening star., 1934-09-11

I'D the match on the fifteenth green.
He didn't have to play much golf to
win, for Round was all over the lot.
Warner, whom Mccarthy meets to-
day. is a good garden variety golfer
whom the Columbia IriShman can
beat. But he will have to play bet
ter than he did yesterday. Ford, the
lad who meets Dettweiler, is from
Charleston, S. c., and is only fair
golfer.
Billy also may win, but Drain and
Vinson look hopeless against the two
tough gents they meet. You cannot
lick form. even in golf, and Eaton
and Bliss are pretty tough for the
local boys.

TN MANY respects this battle be-

make golf what it is today and
the Michigan kid was one of the most
remarkable ever played in any cham
pionship.
They were all square at the third
hole. Ouimet had won the first and
Jones the third. From this point on

,lV veteran from Columbia, who
holds the Beaver Dam title
and who insists that golf matches
are won simply by hitting the ball
toward the hole, matches shots today
with Milton P. Warner of New Haven,
Conn, and if he can continue to push
'em up the way he did yesterday to
whip Charles B. Round of Providence
he may slip through into the third
round. Mccarthy did a thorough
job of subduing Round, whom he
closed out on the fifteenth green by
and 3.
Only Dunlap, the champion: Chick
Evans of Chicago and Jesse Guilford,
the old Boston seige gun, remained
in the tournament today to represent
the present and former golf dynasties.
Dunlap didn't play yesterday and
Guilford and Evans won in the first
round by comfortable margins with
out being pressed too hard. But that
first round was severe shock to Staid
old Boston and the gate receipts.
How the receipts suffered when
Bobby Jones, l8-year-old Detroit kid,
tapped in Pinch putt to whip the
popular Francis Ouimet will not be
known until the final tabulation.

HlCAGO, September ll.-As
reward for spirit and fight,
" little Johnny Kerr, whose
playing days in the big leagues
were adjudged over, was made a coach
last Spring and right now it is doubt
full if Clark Griffith has hired many
coaches" who have paid larger divi-
dends.
Never a great infielder in his prime
and we'll past that stage now, Kerr
nevertheless Is proving he is more
than a mere coach these days as the
Nationals, riddled with injuries and
hard luck, race neck and neck with
the Browns for the leadership OF the
second division.
Acting Manager Al Schacht took
Kerr off of third base yesterday as
the Nationals registered their second
consecutive win over the White Sox,
but Al knew when. 1t was in the
seventh inning with the score tied.

first pitch at the plate and then swung
on the second, the ball landed well
into the right-field stands and thus
did our side win the ball game, Z
to 4.
Jack Russell went the route for the
Nationals and did a pretty slick job of

was a homer by Al Simmons in the
first inning. giving the Chisox tenn

CATCHER FOOLED

~ HICAGO. September la
4 year ago." unused Acting
Y Manager AL Schacht today,
donning his diamond garb
and temporarily forsaking religion in
a wholehearted attempt to present the
injured Joe Cronin with a fifth place
ball club in Detroit. I'D have bet a
million dollars Cliff Bolton never
would make a catcher"
"Y' know" continued AL, II didn't
think Cliff was even a great hitter
last year. Yeah, I know he led the
leagues pinch hitters. But what I
mean is that pitchers were getting
on to Bolton. He was a left field
hitter and for a southpaw batter to
hit to left field you gotta have fast
ball on the outside.
We'll, they've been throwing Clif
balls low and inside this season.
They think that's his weakness. Well,
who threw 'em low and inside to Cliff
made him-made him, y understand.
He's no left field hitter any more.
He hits anywhere. And he's a great
hitter. " see what Klaerner threw
him yesterday? No? Well, it was
low and inside. You saw where 1t
went-in the right field stands and
with it went the ball game.
Not only that but I'm glad I didn't
bet any million dollars he wouldn't
make a catcher. BY the time next
season rolls around there won't be q
better catcher in base ball."

mortgage The fact that service
charges are permitted only in the
case Of two types Of mortgage in
debtedness, loans to purchasers for
new home construction, and ref1nanc-
ing loans on existing property where
there is a change in lender, means
that for all other types of insured
loan, actual return to the mortgage
will in practice be definitely under
S per cent in the case of financing
sales of existing property, probably
about Az per cent. 1t will be less
than the So per cent which is
permitted as interest on refunding
existing property without change of
borrower or lender. Servicing of
mortgages inevitably costs money.
g. Mortgage insurance premiums
will be charged on the original face
value of the mortgage. These will
be collected at the same rate until
the mortgage is fully paid off. Mean
while. however. the premiums will
accumulate at compound interest and

4. Junior liens or other obligations
are absolutely ruled out for real estate
upon which mortgage insurance is
asked This provision, if not liberal
lied. will. to the extent that the in

around an actual minimum 20 per
cent equity of the home owner. and.
likewise. penalize all selling plans or
development plans involving less than
this 20 per cent equity. This, under
present economic conditions. may
considerably narrow the movement of
home buying and home building. 1t
will, however, greatly stabilize home
ownership.

Dollars and cents valuation of build

week, figures issued at the ofice OF
District building inspector reveal.
The total for the past week, including
new building. additions and improve
ments was $l28,50l, large part OF
which was for repairs. That moderniza-
ton work dropped very little from
the past several weeks was evidenced
by the fact that the number of permits

the past month.
The largest permit Of the week was
issued to Vinton Chaplin for the erec-
