YEARS RECORD CHEERS
WESTINGHOUSE CHIEF

During 1885 industry has employed
more men, paid more wages, more
dividends and more taxes than for
many years previously. 1t is a good
record, A. w. Robertson, chairman
of the Westinghouse Electric and
Manufacturing Co., declared in his
annual review.
ut is q great tribute to American
business. Regardless of the many
obstacles encountered, through ever
lasting effort, fresh foothold has
been gained and we have reason to
believe that improvement will con-
tinue.
The electrical industry has shared
in this improvement to the extent that
practically all companies in the in
dustry are once more operating in
the black after several years Of un-
satisfactory earnings"

the picture of betting booths around the first tee isn't likely to help the game of golf.
 While it is highly improbable that any leading golfer would deliber- ately miss putt to change the re- suit of the pari-mutuels, such a possibility will always exist if crooked gamblers are allowed to "chisel in"
 The Professional Golfers associa- ticn took definite stand on the question of pari-mutuel betting on an open golf tournament when it voted unanimous opposition to such g practice last November at the meeting in Chicago and urged its members not to encourage such tournaments by participating in them.
 The P. G. A might well have gone step further and passed leg islation necessary to bar its mem bers from taking part in tourna- ments featuring pari-mutuel bet ting.
 Sarazen, He No Likee!
 Gene Sarazen walked out of the Agua Caliente tournament when the scene at the first tee in the Mexican resort was too much like that at a race track to suit his simple tastes.
 My name isn't going up on a big betting board like race horse or a jockey Sarazen insisted.
 The cocky little Italian swears he never has bet a cent on his chances in a tournament and never will. Nor does he intend to risk his life or limb in any tournament where there exists even the slight est possibility that a disgruntled bettor might seek a measure of satisfaction" ecause Sarazan mis s-ci an easy looking putt.
 If few more leading golfers fol- low Sarazen's move the threat will very likely blow oyer.
 No game offers quite the copor- tunity for crooked play that golf 6oes. Give the gamblers the chance they have been seeking for years and that will be the beginning Of the end of fine sport.

7-7 { |EZ4NT'

The sixth annual Agua Caliente open golf championship, won by Henry Picard of Hersey, Pa, with a total of 286 strokes, attracted un- usual attention because of the pari- mutuel betting innovation.
 The public was permitted to buy tickets on it's favorites to win, place or show, with 90 percent of the total take" returned to the bet tors. The other ten per cent went to the three leading golfers each day. The betting was on the days play only-no tickets were sold on the full 72 holes. ss
 Take them as wholes.syou prob ably will not find a more inveterate group of bettors than the profes- sional golfers. Seldom do they play match, even of the friendly sort, without making some sort of a side bet. Often as not the bets run into more than fair-sized amounts.
 That's part of their game and you can hardly condemn them for it so long as it stays within req sonable bounds. For that matter, most of us duffers like to have a little bet on the side even though we do score on the wrong side of 100 It adds zest to the competition.
 But Pari-Mutuels? Huh-Uh
 Gambling isn't unknown to big golf tournaments. Pools are quite the ordinary thing, but generally they are small affairs among friends and serve to stimulate in tereSt.
 Pari-mutuels or books on golf tournaments, however, are some thing entirely different. Somehow.
