TERP LINE HOPES
APPEAR BRIGHTER
Much Progress Is Made in
Two WeekS-TW0 Teams
in ScoreIess Test.

TINE Yellows and Whites battled
about half hour to scoreless
draw at College Park yesterday
afternoon to bring the Uni
versity of Maryland's second week OF
foot ball practice to a close.
Neither team closely approached the
goal and not more than five first downs
were made. Ellinger did some fine
running and pass catching and Weld
inger some clever hurting and kicking
for the Whites, while Headley and
DAILY did most of the Yellows' advanc-
ing. Both groups served to utilize all
the fit men on the squad.
Star Backs on Shelf.
THREE ace backs were not In the
tussle. Guckeyson, Wheeler and
Meade were out most all week with
minor hurts, but all are expected To
be in action soon, probably tomorrow.
However, as has been pointed out
before. it is not the backfield that
is occupying the thoughts of Coach
Frank Dobson and the members Of
his staff. 1t is the line. and a bright
ray of sunshine is peeking through
the clouds.

Armey, center. Walton, reserve last
Fall. is capable understudy at the
snapper-back position, and Forester,
a green aspirant, has made remarkable
strides at the position.
Dobson, though, has stated that he
will not pick tentative flrst-string
lineup until Monday, September 81,
the week of the opening game with
st. Johns.
There is plenty Of pep and spirit
at College Park and there is no pes
simism.

12.-Shades of 1885 began to
appear on the training field
of George Washington Uni
versity's current foot ball team late
last week when Head Coach Jim
Pixlee again instituted the spread
offense, which finds the Colonial line
men extended from one sideline to
the other when in possession of the
ball.
Remembering the success with
which his team used it against Rice,
when it outgained by nearly 100 yards
the team which won by a 41-0 score.
Pixlee apparently intends to give
Washington fans an extended view Of
the unique formation.

This drill, which usually lasts for a

The second team probably will line
up with a sophomore at a halfback
position. He is Burke Vidnovic, the

Five strokes ahead of the start Of
the last nine, Little dropped a
stroke to par and to Thompson when
he took four on the short eleventh.
Then, with his drives and irons func-
tioning as well as ever, he began a
putting streak that was too much for
his long hitting rival. He canned a
nine-footer for birdie on the
eighteenth, dropped a six-foot putt
for another on the fourteenth and
ran down still another on the fif-
teenth.
Thompson sank an explosion shot
for birdie deuce on the short six

birdie on the seventeenth and counted
a final sub-par figure on the long

EOUR of these are definitely con-

through. They are Somerville, Oui-

Somerville, playing the game of his
life right now, and Hector Thomson,
the shy, stammering Scotch boy who
holds the British amateur cham
pionship, are outstanding among the
10 foreign players in the field. Two
other Scotch boys. Jack Mclean and
Gordon Peters, also are given q
chance to come through, especially
Mclean, who is in the fourth and
apparently the easiest quarter in the
draw.
Three youngsters, Freddy Haas,
New Orleans, the Canadian amateur
champion: Johnny Fischer, Cincin-
natl, and Reynolds Smith, Dallas. both
members of the American Walker Cup
Team, are being favored by some
critics.
Francis Ouimet also has collected
quite a following by his play this
week. He has been putting the slick
Garden City greens especially well
ever since arriving here and today he
toured the course in II, two under
par, for the best score of the day.
Two Big Early Matches.
There are two outstanding matches
in the first round. Paul Leslie, New
Orleans, the Western amateur cham
pion, meets Joe Lynch, Canton, Mass,
semi-f1Halist at Cleveland last year,
and Haas faces Charlie Mayo, jr.,
Long Beach, Long Island, N. Y, the
Long Island champion.
Two outstanding players withdrew
from the championship this week, Ed
White, Bonham. Tex, American
Walker Cup player, and Maurice Nc
Carthy, Cleveland. Mccarthy was
drawn against Johnny Fischer in the
first round and White against Levi
Yoder of Bethesda, Md.

soaked the championship course and
slowed it down considerably. All week

LITTLE IS MASTER
| |NCANAD|AN OPEN
Sets Tourney Mark as He
Stages Stirring Finish
for Easy Victory.
By the Associated Press.


TORONTO, September 12.-Law-
son Little, the subject of much
doleful head-shaking because of
- his performances since he gave
up his amateur status last Spring
after two years of sweeping the
United States and British amateur
championships, came into his own as
a professional golfer today.
Winning his first tournament as a
pro, Little staged a stirring finish TO
capture the Canadian Open title from
a brilliant field with a 72-hole total
of 271 strokes.
Four times in succession the husky
San Franciscan bettered the par of
10 for the st. Andrews public course
to smash the scoring record for the
tourney and record one of the lowest
aggregates ever scored over q full
length course.
Despite his remarkable rounds of 67,
66, SO and SO, Little had a fight on
his hands to stay in front of the field
through the last SO holes today as
Jimmy Thomson, the Shawnee-on-
Delaware, Pa, clouter, ratified of a
$3.50 for the last two rounds. Start
ing 10 strokes behind, Thomson st
one time cut his deficit to three
strokes. He was five behind as the
last nine began, then saw his hopes
vanish as the preside FOUNDER shot
five brides on the last six holes.
Victory Gets Little $1,000.
7 TITLES victory brought him
- $1,000 in prize money, while
Thomson. finishing with 279. earned
$500. The s400 third money went to
Craig Wood, blonde New York shot
maker, who also carded pair of 69's
today for a total of 282. Leo Diegel
of Philmont, Pa, who set the old
scoring record of 274 for the 1929
tournament at Montreal. had a 2S3 to
tie with Vic Ghezzi of. Deal, N. j,
for fourth. Each received $3.50.

blustery weather without a
~ single dominating figure in
the field was the prospect for the
national amateur golf championship
today, as the 2l0 entrants prepared
for their last practice rounds before

The historic course was shaved and
trimmed today and. as the wind
mounted, the veterans in the field
were receiving more attention than
ever before.
With Lawson Little, the present
champion, now in the professional
ranks, Albert (Scotty) Campbell,
Seattle, and Johnny Goodman are
generally favored, though betting has
been light because of the unusually
large number of capable players.
There are eight former champions
in the field-George Dunlap, New
