week at Baltusrol. N j., where four
men from Washington clubs are
warming up their war clubs today in
preparation for the test which starts
over the 72-hole medal play route
Thursday morning.
Over the past half dozen wears the
headlines from the national open have
consistently carried the name of Will

liners, always with good chance to
win. AS a matter Of fact it's one of
those tragedies of the open-always
a show crammed with drama-that
Witty hasn't won At Merton two
years back the gabby Cox man had
the championship packed away in
moth balls up TO the final nine.
There he slipped and lost by two
shots, finishing in third place with
295. A bird on the eighteenth hole
would have placed him in a tie with
Olin Dutra, the winner
WHY'S record over he past few
years has been consistently good. In
1882 he finished fifth at Fresh Mea-
dow, with 295, the year Gene Sarazen
won with a record-equalirg score Of
236. And the year before at Toledo,
Witty was fourth with 296 That
was the wear George Won Elm and
Billy Burke put on their marathon
72-hole play-off.
The record OF the Cox man over
the years is impressive, and it may
n
well be that Cox o. the tanned coun-
tenance, the take it easy" wisecrack
and the upright swing will find his
putting stroke clicking and romp
home with rhe championship dangling

~ vEW YORK, June l.-Scarcely

" itself is the task of trying to
1 dope" the American open
golf championship, to be played next
Thursday Friday and Saturday over
the upper course of the BaltuSrol Golf
Club, Short Hills, N. j.
Under normal playing conditions,
anything can happen in an open
tournament. When the elements take
a hand. as they did at Oakmont last
year, all bets are off. The combina-
ton of the pace and the pressure
will be felt by some ITO players, ANA
teur and professional, who qualified
for the 72-hole finals this week by
reason of being among the top 80 last
year, passing sectional tests or getting
special dispensation. Two Japanese
professionals, Torchy Toda and Chick
Chin, and the home club pro, Johnny
Farrell. are the beneficiaries of special
favor, but they are on their own from
now on.
For the battle of Baltusrol, the
nearest to sure things" are Cd that
a new champion will be crowned to
replace Samuel Mclaughlin Parks,
jr., ~ that the scoring pace will be
the fastest in years, and (3) that no
shots will be hit out of bounds.
