KenwoOd Open a Big Show.

DUT by Saturday all of them will
n be in Philadelphia intent on
shaking down their golf games
for an even bigger show-the ma
tional women'S championship. This
will leave the local scene clear for
the pros. who will begin along about
a week from today to gather at Ken
wood for the show that should be Al
Houghton'S private little parade, but
probably won't be.
It's a big Show-thiS coming Ken
wood open-poSSibly bigger than the
women'S affair this week. But it
won't be such a gallery thrill as will
the wOmen's matches, for 80 per cant
of your gallery members never have
seen the big shots in women's golf
perform, while most of them have
seen the leading pros do their stuff.
The top attraction at KenWood next
week undoubtedly will be stalwart

part-Indian lad who is burning up
golf courses East and West, and whose
latest conquest is the Eastern open
championship. Laffoon never has ap-
peared here before. Most of the
others have. The Laffoon boy is
heralded as the latest thing in the
1884 golfing model, the lad who is due
TO top 'em all in a year or two. and
therefore he will be the big gallery
attraction at Kenwood.

FOxx'S Homers Hurt.

THE booming bat of James Emory
Foxx dealt two of the Griffs
rookie hurlers painful blows
literally and f1guratively yesterday.
In defeat. Reese Diggs, the l8-year-
old kid from Pimlico, Md, looked far
better yesterday than he did while
winning his major league debut a
week ago in Cleveland. Diggs ap-
peared to have fair chance of win
ming his second straight in the opener
of yesterdays double header. but Foxx
spoiled his hopes in the eighth inning
when he broke up A tie and blasted
the ball out of the park for his forty-
fourth home run of the campaign.
No matter how auspiciously Orville
ArmbruSt would have debutted in
the nlghtcap. it is hardly likely the
rotund Chattanooga rookie would have
won his first big-league start. Oppos-
ing him was Bill Dietrich on one of
his good days and as a result the
Nationals got only two well scattered
hits and no runs.
Batted Ball Hurts Armbrust.
4 RMBRUST was impressive in the
"A three innings he worked, but he
was prevented from lasting
longer because of Foxx. In the first
inning, with two down, Foxx wham-
med a liner at Armbrust, who half
lodged to escape the sizzler and
caught the ball in the back, near the
kidneys
Though the pain hampered him, he
continued to pitch the second and
third innings. but he wasn't able to
answer the bell for the fourth round.
Al Thomas relieved and pitched
hitleSs and runless ball until the
eighth. when Frank Hayes and
Dietrich beat out infield hits and
johnson hit his thirty fourth homer
of the season into the short left field
stands, giving the AS a 3-to-O tri-
umph.
While he was in there. though,
Armbrust gave an impressive perform
ance. He allowed only a hit in each
of the three innings, one a bunt. Six
of the II batsmen to face him either
fOuled or popped out. strong evidence
that Armbrust had something on the

Lewis Haney until short COW
ering in motors and steels. to-
gether with some buying Of
metals, brought the closing push.
The current move may be top
ping out, but a downward trend
is not in immediate prospect.
The general action Of the market
suggests that fair sized operators
are doing some work, and the re-
suit has been a series OF pushes"
in a very thin market, followed
by periods Of digestion.
How long this can continue is
any ones guess. One should
note, however, that the averages
are now just at the top Of what
has been the prevalent trading
range ever since June last year.
Barring fresh inflationary devel'
opments, or some really good
news, the going is therefore likely
to be more difficult from here on.
The "gap" made on Satur-
day came at just about the
level of the big gap on January
Is, and the market in some
ways resembles that Of last
January. There is not the
business background of that
time, however, nor the public
interest. I am inclined to say
that this market more nearly
resembles that of November,
1888.
My guess would be that stocks
will either ID be given final
push up, to carry the averages a
point or two higher-Say to where
they broke on April 30-or (2)
turn irregular and round off.
OF course, the market would
be all set for a nice rise if it
were not for several limitations
which must be considered as
fundamentals" These are as
follows:
i. The business and political
situation is not secure or clear.
2. Many leading stocks are high.
3. The stock exchange regula-
tion will hamper pool operations.
4. In any case, public participa-
tion is limited.
The chief hope of a bull mar
ket here lies in inflated, either
through opening the flood gates
of bank credit, or breaking down
the dam against fiat currency and
overvalued silver certificates.
I observe that, aside from some
short selling and covering in mo-
tors and some sentimental floor
trading in steels and coppers, the
most sustained strength has been
in Imitation stocks including sill
yer and gold shares.
Congress seems about to ad.
3Ourn, but that is no news.
Moreover, Congress has abrO-
gated so much power in favor
Of a radical executive that its
presence is rather q conserve
tive factor.
The rails Spurted at the close
of the week, but car loadings are
not favorable and the labor pen
sion scheme just enacted will hurt
earnings. The break in WeSting-
house Airbrake hardly suggests
optimism concerning the railway
business.
Steel production is up, but not
because of current or prospective
steel consumption.
Copper buying Spurted, but that
was because some sellers marked
prices up to 8 cents so that others
could sell for 812 cents. Now the
sales have been made.
The oil industry, concerning
which there is still much hope,
is wrestling with too much "hot
oil" and weakness in the whole.
sale gasoline market.
All in all, would stick to stocks
which have both an initiation ap-
peal and a backing in earnings
that justify current prices. I
would avoid taking any chances
on indiSCriminate speculation.
