COMPANIES AGREE
| TO ERASE RACKET
National Champs Weren't
Averse to Picking Up
s!s Soft SimoIeons. #
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

~ NE Of golf's major rackets Is
III being quietly and effectively
~ snuffed out come the Spring
season of 1885, even though
not many people realize that it had
become a racket or that it had gotten
to be so widespread.
1t is being done with the co-opera-
tion of the big insurance companies
of the Nation, who realize that even
though crack golfers may bring them
in lot of business by selling policies
in the quiet and serenity of casual
golf game, 1t doesn't do their business
whole lot Of good to be sold by a
high-pressure salesman who Is in the
insurance business because he happens
to be adept at coaxing a little white
ball into little round hole. In an
altogether unostentatious manner the
big insurance organizations have cir
culated and signed an agreement
among themselves to cut out the busi-
ness Of signing up star golfers as in
Surance statesmen because they are
star golfers and thereby have the op-
portunity to meet insurance prospects
in manner and in situation that
disarms them completely and puts
them in receptive mood for the per-
suasive arguments of the gents who
sell insurance policies.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, April S R).-
Ora Mayer Of San Francisco, compet-
ing in the American Bowling Congress
for the first time, rolled into first
place In the all-events division with a
sensational 2,022 total.

doubles and 682 in singles, averaging
224.6 for his nine games.
Mayors score compared with the

Pace Terrific, Says Bobby.

" had long talk with Bobby
after his round
81 was hitting the ball better than
I have in many weeks" he said. Il
have played much worse golf and
have had a 68 or a SO. I don't know
just what happened. Horton Smith
said the same thing. The best puts
that I stroked didn't drop and those
I didn't hit so well fell into the cup.
That is golf.
But the pace is terrific. When you
have 10 men or more who can beat
par by 4 or 5 strokes, some of them
not SO well known, you get the angle
on golf as it is played today from the
competitive side. I got slow start
year ago and I am pretty well back
today. But I hope to do better.
Maybe I won't"
Here is queer angle. Ed Dudley
had a putt for a at the first hole.
He took three puts, missing a short
one. Then he played the next IT
holes in even par, three-putting every
long hole which he reached in two.
1t was the old story. He might have
had 81, but he finished with 73.
In the meantime, the State
of Georgia is looking for Bobby
Jones to put on a rally and
swing back into the middle of
the pace settlers.
But this is tough setting when so
many of them are eagle hunting.
Willie Goggin holed his tee shot on
the sixteenth for hole in one, to fin
ish with GO. There were more than
80 puts for eagles in this opening
round, puts not longer than IL feet:
Gold is a tough game for prophet
or soothsayer. Before the tourna-
ment opened picked Sarazen, Dutra
and Picard as the bets. Picard had a
81, Sarazen SO and Dutra a 10. Still
I stand by the nominations I offered
before a blow was struck against one
of the greatest fields that ever scat
tered divots all over the landscape.

~ body has said that this is the
~ age of speed. I can well be-
lieve it. There was time in
golf when a round in the low 7os was
considered to be what you might call
adequate. Now a round in the low
7os gets you nowhere. There were 10
golfers who broke par over the Au-
gusta National yesterday and five of
them broke 10.
First there was Henry Pickard, who
set q new competitive course record
with 81. That was under par. I
would like to say here that Picard is
one Of the finest players have ever
seen. He is destined to go long way
and win more than one big champion
ship. He has fine swing, a cool head
and the temperament needed to win.
And he also has power, which is big
asset, an important one. He has

By the Associated Press.
A UGUSTA, Ga, April Stall,
~ handsome Henry Picard, the
n Hershey. Pa. professional who
rose from the caddy ranks to
the heights of stardom, led great
field of par-cracking veterans into the
second 1s holes of the $4,000 Augusta
National Invitation golf tournament
today.
The iron-nerved youngSter, leading
money-winner among the Winter
campaigners, gave old man par ter.
rife shellacking in the initial round Of
the 72-hole grind, breaking the COM
petitive course record of 50 with 81,
five under par for the ideal" layout.
Hot in pursuit of Picard were such
renowned marksmen as Gene Sarazen,
former American and British cham
pion; Willie Goggin, San Francisco
professional who crowned a great
round with a hole lone on the 145-
yard 18th and ray Mangrum, dark
horse" entry from Los Angeles. Each
shot 68 10 lead the procession until
the Hershey Hammerer walked in with
his remarkable total.
Jones Gets a "a.
I'm THE wake came Robert Tyre
Jones, jr., making his second
comeback attempt in formal COM
petition. He finished the opening
round far back in the field with "a,
two over par. So did his playing
partner, Horton Smith, 1884 winner.
Jones, showing streaks of tenseness
and lack of putting touch, apparently
was out of the running, but still was
q choice to finish higher than the
thirteenth place he took in the inau-
gural. He showed flashes of the old
time form that carried him to his
grand slam" achievement in 1880,
the year he retired from competition.
AS the sharpshooting brigade moved
into the second 18 holes, the score
board showed 10 marksmen with sub
par rounds and four registered in the
regulation 70 column.
Sarazen Still Choice.
- ULING as favorites were Sarazen,
K whose odds dropped to mere
3 to /, in view of his sepectacu-
lar 68; Olin Dutra, national open king,
who fired in a 10 along with Paul
Runyan, National P. G.. A. cham
pion; Johnny Revolta, the young Mil
waukee pro, and Jimmy Hines OF New
York.
Craig Wood, runner-up to Smith
here last Spring, blazed his way to a
neat SO to remain a contender. Hines,
another clark horse" was among the
tophighters with TO.
In the entire 70 holes year ago
only three-Wood, Ed Dudley, Augusta
national pro, and Harold McSpaden-
were able to reach the mark of SO,
while in the first 18 holes this year
five equaled or bettered that figure,
the competitive record before yester-
days combined assault.
Goggin Gets an Ace.
rHE high light of opening play was
Goggin's ace, the second in as
many years in the Augusta Ma
tional. Ross Somerville, Canadian
amateur champion, cupped tee shot
last year. Goggin's shot was made
with a spade, the ball bouncing twice
and dropping into the cup on the
145-yard hole.
The treacherous thirteenth, dog
leg, 48o-yard hole, proved disastrous
to many, including Jones and Smith
each of whom took SKIES there, but
Picard, playing brilliantly through
out, managed to card one of his six
brides on this particular hole.

In the old days, along with bond
statesmen who went places because
they were good golfers. and others
who made the grade because they
swung club like a pro But the in
surance companies have taken the
lead in eradicating this sector Of the
border line between pro and amateur
golf simply by removing by agreement
the temptation to good golfers to pick
up bit Of change because Of their
skill at the game. Even our national
champions were not averse to going
in for this form of salesmanship, and

Ethiopian Insulted Ii
Called AbySSinian

NEW YORK. - DR.. Richard
Gottheil, professor of Semitic
languages at Columbia University
and the only teacher Of Ethioptc
languages in the United States,
points out that the African coun-
try which the Italians are invad.
ing is, historically speaking, Abys-
sinia rather than Ethiopia.
"The plateau region, which is
the heart Of modern Ethiopia and
the stronghold Of the rulers Of the
present kingdom, has been known
to historians for a long time as
Abyssinia, DR.. Gottheil said.
"The name comes from the
Arabic 'Habash' or 'Habish.
Among the tribes Of Semites from
the Yemen, in South Arabia, who
settled in this plateau region
many centuries before Christ were
the 'Habishats,' and their country
was called 'HabiSh.' TheS
Semitic immigrants are held to
have founded the civilization from
which that Of modern Ethiopia
derives"
The Gallas, Somalis, Danakils
and other subject peoples Of the
lowlands and outlying provinces
DR.. Gottheil said, are to be dis
tinguished from the "Abyssinians'
of the plateau region because these
subject tribes are racially Hamitic
rather than Semitic and thus do
not have the same culture.

note, Senator Borah proposes to
be in there in the trenches. If
not, then it is reasonably certain
that he will "go fishing" during
the campaign, as he virtually did
in the campaign Of 1882, much
to the chagrin Of Mr.. Hoover.
The politicians do not under

influence in the States west Of
