UBLIC links golf around Wash
- ington Is due for a big boom
in playing skill this year, with
better than a possibility that
one or two of the toplinerS OF the
municipal courses may come close to
the record of George J. Voight when
the erstwhile star Of the pay-as-you-
play courses was romping over all
opposition back in the years between
1924 and 1927.
It's always true in golf that when
one performer comes to the top, a
flock of other lads, spurred on by
ambition, develop in his wake until
they may challenge the supremacy of
the top man. Claude Rippy is the best
man playing golf on the public courses
around Washington these days, even
though he doesn't sport the municipal
links championship and never has
worn the crown. But ask any Of the
men who know public links golf as
it is being played in the National
Capital and he will tell you that Rippy
is the finest golfer of the lot. On the
wings of Rippy's rise to the crest have
come along flock of other performers
who are very near him in ability and
who, If they were turned loose in
some Of the invitation tournaments,
might cut a wide swath among the
men from the private clubs. Such
lads as John Connolly, the present
public links title holder; Harlan Will,
the elongated former caddie from
Woodmont; Harry Saunders, Ted Bur-
rows, Andrew Oliveri, John Baer and
Buddy Sharkey.

BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

N IEw YORK, February ct
M was not easy for Walter
| Y Merrill Hall, president of the
United States Lawn Tennis
Association, to use his influence in
that body against Czechoslovakia's
proposal to abrogate the Interna.
tional Federation rule which prevents
amateur lawn tennis players from
capitalizing their athletic ability in
the making of tennis films. 1t is
going to cost him and American lawn
tennis some Stanch friends in
Europe-eSpecially in England.
None the less, the United States
Lawn Tennis Association at its an
nual meeting in Cincinnati tomorrow
will confirm the action of its officers
in refusing to join in the movement
to Hberalize the international anna
teur rules with respect to moving
picture enterprises, selling lawn
tennis paraphernaia, and other COM
commercial ventures.
1t is understood generally here that
while in this assault upon the approx
imately spotless purity of tennis
amateurism the voice is the voice Of
Jacob, the hand is that Of Esau. In
other words, England, fearful of losing
Fred Perry to professional tennis,
influenced Czechoslovakia to stand as
sponsor for the project. This, at
least, is strongly suspected.

ROESCH WILL SEEK

Washington Linksman May
Be a Tough Customer
When He Returns.

TOR many years one OF the finest
- amateur golfers around Wash
ington (many people think he
would be the best could he play
more, Frank K. Roesch, has been
ordered to Florida for the balance of
the Winter to get back on his feet
physically.
He will spend the rest of the Winter
playing golf there and if his game
picks up where he left of last Sep
tember, he is going to be rough,
tough customer in the Spring Journeys
hereabouts.
Frank left the Washington Golf and
Country Club when the club cham
pionship was right in the middle OF
its progress to the final. He had won
the title several times and was IA
vorite to win again. But his health
would not permit him to continue, and
he hasn't played a round of golf since
September. Never a robust lad,
Frank Roesch is one of the finest
swingers developed around Washing
ton. He won the District champion
ship back in 1880 and has won some
of the other tournaments, but Frank
lacked the physical strength of some

Would Invite Public Linksmen.

TT ALL begins to appear like the
years between 1921 and 1925, when
group of golfers were growing up
down at East Potomac Park who
could come close to playing rings
around the men from the private
clubs. In those days George Voigt
was tops on the public courses, but a
flock of the boys were not far behind
him. Such boys as Harry G. Pitt,
for many years the best golfer around
Washington; Page Hufty. North and
South champion of 1926: Al Houghton,
semi-finalist in the national public
links championship of 1926; John
Shorey, winner of several invitation
tournaments around Washington. and
Earl McAleer, probably the best SOUTH
paw golfer ever turned out in Wash
ington.
In those days it was the custom Of
The District Golf Association to invite
some of the public links boys to play
in the District amateur championship.
None of them ever won the tourna-
ment, under the banner of public
links golf but they constituted dis
tinct threat. And about the same
time several of them joined private
clubs. Voigt went to Bannockburn,
Hufty to Congressional, Shorey to
Bannockburn and Houghton and Pitt
and McAleer to Manor. But of late
years the District championship has
been barred to the public links lads
and now at last a new coterie of
public links performers who have con-
siderable golf class has arisen. topped
by the Straight-shooting Rippy. And
it might be just as we'll If the District
association, this year, took cognizance
of the fact that among those boys
who play the public courses are few
of them who can really play golf, and
invite the winner and runner-up in
the local municipal championship to
play in the District championship, no
matter what the constitution of the
organization says.
