any major alterations In the gridiron

Bill Cowell, permanent secretary

didn't foresee any important changes
unless the pass-tnterference contro-

Perennial Bugaboo Is Back.
THE National Collegiate Athletic

with the ccaches-and three other
organizations governing college sports
opened last night with q closed
council meeting.
Subsidization Of athletics, a peren-
NAL bugaboo In q return engagement,
will get its chance on the convention
floor tomorrow. College presidents are
to give their viewpoints on the topic,
"Are Our intercollegiate Athletics to
Remain Amateur"
A comparatively new organization,
the Association Of College Track
Coaches Of America, plans expansion
throughout the country. According to
meeting room gossip, the cinderpath
pilots intend to include Just about
every major coach in the country.
The foot ball coaches will give over
one entire session to the pass-interfer-
ence penalty. On Tuesday coaches,
officials and sports writer's will be
asked for their viewpoints in an open
meeting. With the material thus
gathered, the associations Rules Com
mittee will decided whether to suggest
q change to the national group.
Tackle Injury Problem.
THE coaches also are going after the
injury problem in q new manner.
They've invited . well-known college
squad trainer to answer questions on
methods Of treatment Of injuries and
other factors concerned.
As is the custom, Harry Kipke,
Michigan coach, will be elevated from
the associations first vice presidency
to the presidency, now held by Tuss
McLaughry Of Brown. For this reason,
the coaches generally don't believe
Kipke will be ousted at Michigan. as
has been rumored.
Two other organizations, in addition
to the foot ball and track coaches and
the N. G. A. A., round out the weeks
meetings. Both the College Physical
Education Association and the Sports
manship Brotherhood, also allied with
college sports, open conventions today.

idea that has in 1t some sound sense
for improving the spectators view Of

Bob would have built near the

of the paying customers could get q

without getting their chilblains

the District open golf championship,
didn't play In the early Florida tour
naments, but George Is planning .
whack with Q fairly good amateur
partner at the amateur-pro tourney at
st. Augustine starting March II.
Georges amateur partner, II things
work out as the District champ hopes,
will be Roger Peacock, the uncrowned
king Of all the amateurs in this sector.
Roger and George make a rather
rough combination-rough for the
other guys-as q lot Of local amateurs
and pros admitted after the 1885 cam.
paign, when the two Of them won prac.
tically all the amateur-pro tourna-
ments IN this neighborhood.
I'm trying to get Roger to 60 along
with me and he's nibbling," says
George IF we get down there we
might have q chance to get in the
money"
Prize money in that tourna-
ment totals around four grand,
with . handsome slab Of silver
for the amateur on the winning
combination.
Since his repeat victory in the Dis
trict open at Bannockburn, George
hasn't played lot Of golf. That was
five weeks ago, but the Indian Spring
pro doesn't need much practice to
keep his hand in. He played nine
holes the other day-the par SO last
nine-and managed to scramble
around in "a wallops. which is fairly
good in any language, including the
Caledonian.
-Four brides he bumped of, and
went over par on both short holes,
which isn't in the usual Difienbaugh
book, for If there's one department
Of the game George can play it's the
iron work.
Short of stature he's as long from
the tee as any pro playing regularly
around Washington. George has
plenty on the ball any time he totes
his kit out to the first tee and II he
and Roger get to Ray McCarthy's
well-ballyhooed tournament at St.
Augustine they may very well have
the Sarazens and the Picards asking
questions about 'em before long.
One thing is certain: There won't
be q better amateur in the field than
Roger Peacock, provided the young
man has a few rounds under his belt
before he starts.
Roger can 90 for my money
against any amateur in the
country when he's In the hitting
groove.
Gene Sarazen and Mally Reynolds,
Jacksonville amateur, won the ANA
teur-pro at st. Augustine last year.
Thomson in Scoring Mood.
DAVE THOMSON, Washington Coll
and Country Club pro, may not
be the longest hitter in the world
but little Dave certainly knows how
to score. He played IL holes of his
home course in level par and hit only
five greens in regulation figures.
You can't lick a guy like that when
his putter Is clicking.
In those IL holes, Dave knocked In
four puts Of more than Is feet, two
Of 'em for brides. Day in and day
out he's the best clipper and putter
around the Washington club.

Harlow points out that at the st.
Paul open tournament and at the
national open Of 1926 grandstands
were erected at strategic spots where
people could sit and see part Of the
play without wearing out shoe leather.
Combined with the grandstand
idea, Bob would have the starting
field on the last day reduced from
60 and ties to 40 and ties, which would
have the effect of leaving in only
those who have a real chance to win
and avoid cluttering up the field with
a lot of guys who are only out for

The history of golf championships
shows that any golfer behind fifteenth
place at the end of the first 80 holes
in a 72-hole affair has little chance
Of winning.
TOO many golfers are permitted Il

"The crowd is interested only

Putter Is White Hot.

A LWAYS a hard worker at the
game, Tony managed to win the
Santa Catalina and Glens Falls tour
naments, but in so far as the major
money events were concerned, Tony
had been consistently stymied. No
guy tried harder than Tony, but he
couldn't win the big ones.
Then, just as Sam Parks did in 1885,
another horse of ebony hue won the
national open championship, Tony
Manero, with white-hot putter. the
fire of ambition driving his Latin blood
to winning heat, paced by the greatest
italian American golfer of them all
(Gene Sarazen), bla1ed down the final
day of the open with rounds of 73-67,
to set world record of 282 for the
championship.
He won by shots, smashing the
old record by strokes. The old mark
had stood for 20 years.
AS a burst of inspirational golf,
Tony Manero's final round was the
links masterpiece Of masterpieces.
There's only one parallel-SarazenS
SO in the closing round of the 1922
open at Skokie. These Latins seem
to have a way with 'em of turning
on the steam in the pinches. Tony's
putter did it for him-that and Harry
Cooper's collapse.
Sarazen Is Inspiration.
RUT I'll always think that the big
gest factor in the inspirational
squirt Of Manero was the lucky draw
with Sarazen as his playing partner.
I didn't hear Gene say, Come on,
Tony, hole this one for II Duce," or
rattle of, "Give this one the Halle
Selassie twist" but that Roman beak
of Tony Manero means more than a
mere facial adornment when there's
q Sarazen around to goad him.
Tony has character-golf character.
He showed it in that final dash to
the wire after fretting Harry Cooper
tossed the championship away with a
punk finish.
I wonder if you ever heard the
story Of that final hole up there at
Baltusrol played by Manero when he
had the championship in his lap and
wanted to play safe on that terrifying
465-yard par stretch? He needed a
s to win by shot, and he and his
caddy knew it.
Caddy Steeled Manero.
TONY had to wait little on the
eighteenth tee. He took a No.
iron out of his bag to keep the ball
straight. Gimme that" the boy said,
land take this" handing Tony his
driver. And don't steer it. Hit it,
the caddy cracked, and vanished into
the woods where Tony couldn't
change.
Plenty of room for trouble. Good
men had taken 6 on that hole before
But Tony split the middle with his
drive, banged long iron to the front
edge Of the green and rammed home

The 100-to-1 shot had come through.
