GUARANTEED COIN
ALONELURESK KING
Likely to Be Among Bigger
Money Makers Out of
National Open Win.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

"ONY MANERO, the guy VINO
was behind the 8-ball in golf
until q couple months ago, is
- cashing in on his national
open links championship as few cham
pions have done in recent years. Less
than eight weeks back Tony had Just
been dropped from the pay roll of a
golf ball manufacturing outfit. and
on June 6 he won the national open
at Baltusrol. Today Tony is in the
big money, and unlike most open
champions, is getting a guarantee for
appearing in open tournaments.
It's the old gesture suggested by
Walter Hagen many years ago, but
few champions have been able to get
away with the appearance money
stunt. Tony is doing it, which prob
ably is tribute to his persuasive pow
ers as well as to his personality and
and his golf ability.
The Italian-American boy out of
Rye. N. Y, picked up s70O in tour
nament at Vancouver last week, $500
in prize money and 5000 in guarantee
dough. He has been given a years
leave OF absence from his club at
Greensboro. N. c., and Tony, on what
he already has done, is destined to be
one Of the bigger coiners of money
out OF the national.
Exhibition Racket Overd0ne.
IF ISN'T so easy for a champion in
golf nowadays to pick up the easy
dough. For one thing the exhibition
racket has been overdone ana the easy
pickings that used to fall to the pros
OF decade ago aren't there any more.
Time was. and not so long ago,
either, when any club was willing to
pay 5000 or S400 to a pair of good
pros to put on an 18-hole exhibition
match. 1t didn't mean anything, and
the boys only had to play l8 holes.
try TO break a course record for an
extra $50 or So look nice, and say
few nice things about the course,
pocket the dough. and go on to the
next stand.
But that phase of golf has been
oVer-worxed SO thoroughly that the
exhibition game, as such, is deader
than Charlemagne. Today the price
OF pair Of good pros for an exhibit
ton match is around $3.50, and if the
club does a little wheedling they can
get em for 500 and expenses.
But while It lasted it was a good
and a lucrative racket. The modern
trend is toward guarantee money for
the top-notch pros in the big open
tournaments, which probably is better
after all, for your professional golfer
puts on a better show in competition
than when he Is merely exhibiting.
Manero will do the entire tourna-
ment circuit this year, and good as
he is he should pick up several
thousand dollars in prize money. aside
from the guarantees he gets for ap-
pearing.

TO TILT FOR TITLE
Mitchell, Markey Will Face
McEIvenny, Hunt Today
in Crown Match.
BY BILL DISMER, JR.

A NOTE OF melancholy was
~ struck in the semi-final
~ matches of the Middle Allan
a tic doubles tournament at
Army-Navy Country Club yesterday
as Dooly Mitchell and Tom Markey
and Ralph McElvenny and Gilbert
Hunt became opponents in the cham
pionship encounter which will start
at o'clock this afternoon.
Rendered next to helpless by a
stomach disorder after showing sheer
courage in even attempting to play,
Hugh Lynch, one-half of the No.
seeded team with Ed Mather, necessi-
tated a default of that combination
after battling Mitchell and Markey
on even terms for two sets.
Hardly able to stand on his feet
after his service had given him and
Mather the second set, 6-1. squaring
the match after dropping the first.
6-3. Lynch gave up the fight at that
juncture. 1t was q game stand that
the former Princeton net captain had
made. but his condition was all too
apparent as he failed to run after any
balls hit within 8 feet of his side.

which it is next to impossible to in
sert more than the last name. Then,
as the rounds progress, the spaces get
larger and larger, when it is no longer
necessary to give the full name.

Wage Fine Fight.

MATHER almost single -handedly
opposed the seeded No. 1 team
throughout the first set, showing a
great ability to cover the whole court,
and. for while, it looked as If he
were to overcome the handicap. Grad
ually, however, balls began to whiz
past Lynch as II he were a statue,
and after 3-3 deadlock, Markey and
Mitchell ran off three straight games.
Singularly enough, while not show
ing any improvement in condition,
Lynch held up his end so we'll in the
second set that he and his partner
astounded by taking the first four
games. Then, after Mather double
faulted at service to give the opposi-
ton their lone game. he and Lynch
cracked Mitchells service and Lynch
won on his.
That was the end of one of the
pluckiest bits seen on a local court in
many a day, though, but so compara-
lively well had Lynch played, despite
his condition, that those ignorant Of
his plight were completely bewildered
until the reason for the cessation Of
hostilities became known.

again, true issues are obscured by un-
supported generalizations. Whenever
there has been an increase In certain
governmental activities, discrimination
should be exercised to determine
whether the new or temporary activ-
ity is really competitive with private
business and supplants functions
which private business has been sat-
isfactorily carrying. There have been
claims Of the deterrent effects OF
Government competition in certain in
dustries, but there bust be an incon-
sistency In such claims when such in
dustries register remarkable gains and
improvements. Certainly this would
not be possible If so-called Govern
ment competition were exerting a de-
structive influence.
Wild Criticism Harmful.
While free discussion and construct
i've criticism are essential to demo-
cratic procedures, this freedom to dis
cuss and criticize imposes a corollary
obligation and responsibility. Peo-
pies confidence is weakened when
such criticism is unfounded and un-
truthful. If there is disagreement
as to specific policies and procedures,
the criticism should be fortnight and
specific. 1t is destructive to mas
querade such objections behind the
cloak of generalized attacks which
charge that un-American or undemo-
cratic principles and objectives in any
way motivate procedures in the oper-
ations of the National Government.
Whenever endeavors are made to
such methods, business men, ire
spective of personal political affilia-
tions, should be the first to object to
such endeavors. If business men do
countenance efforts of this nature,
their leadership will suffer a severe
loss Of prestige before the jury of
informed public opinion.
In the less complex and less inter-
related economic system Of the past,
business organizations were known to
the public chiefly through the out
standing accomplishments recorded
during the eras of geographical and
industrial expansion or through the
trade name or products sold.
Today these factors are only a part
Of the picture. Business organiza-
tions today are also judged, and
judged vigilantly, upon their various
economic policies with respect to en-
ployer-employe relationships. trade
practices and competitive methods.
The influence of these factors in the
aggregate upon national welfare has
served to focus public attention upon
them. Much of the criticism that
has arisen against business since 1929
has resulted from the failure of busi-
ness properly to interpret itself to the
public. In the past this was not
