into the sand. 1t gets EN- all, but
it gets the duffer quicker, for he
hasn't learned that the club will do
the work and he tries to do it with
his hands, his hips, his shoulders

TAKE our second hole here at Co.
lunbia," Fred points out. IF
a man hits a good tee shot well down
the hill he has a delicate little pitch
over the ditch to a fairly big green.
But it is surprising how many golfers
want to see where that ball is going
before they even hit it. They lift the
head, swing too fast and dump that
ball in the ditch and before they
know it they have wrecked a score,
got away to a discouraging start and
ruined their disposition so thoroughly
that they want to quit.
And there isn't very much I can
do except to tell 'em to concentrate
on swinging smoothly and look at
the ball. After all, there isn't any
thing more humiliating than to miss
a little short pitch and dump the
ball into a ditch or a bunker. And
it could all be avoided by smooth
swinging and little concentration.
But what is the toughest shot for
the better golfer-the expert?" We
asked Freddie. "Oh, that's an easy
one" he replied.
ITS the putt. The way golf is

A ND. speaking of hard luck, Roland
Mackenzie had a bit of it Mon

Va, just below Alexandria. His car
slid into mudhole and while waiting
for a towing car, he tried to get out.
With the weight of heavy trailer be-

had to be towed all the way home,

VO|GT ONE OF trio
T0.BE BIG THREAT.
Held and Campbell Others
to Become Conspicuous
in National Play.
RY WALTER r. MacCALLUM.

BY WALTER r. MacCALLUM.
w YITH all the golf played on
AZ the public courses through
wv out the Nation, and the I'M
doubted high quality of golf
played by the boys who gather at the
national public links title chase, the
&ds who use the pay-as-you-play
courses haven't been able to get any,
where in the national amateur cham
pionship.
All of which must mean, if you
look closely at the record, that even
though they are good, they are not
good enough to get along in high-class
company among the club golfers.
Only three products of the public
links have travelled anywhere in the
select company Of the amateur cham
pionship and only one of these has
shown promise of winning the cham
pionship. That man is George Voigt,
who learned the game at East Po-
tomac Park, and George nowadays is
considered among the experts to be
but shadow of his old-time self and
hardly good enough to be major
threat in the big championship.
Capable Performers
THE others are Eddie Held, the st.
- Louis boy who won the public
links title in 1922-the first year it
was played, and Scotty Campbell from
the Pacific Northwest, who is a good
golfer, but hasn't been able to get
along in the big event.
George Voigt never won the ma
tional public links championship. He
did get along pretty well in the 1924
tournament, but he wasn't good
enough to win. Only after George had
had crack at club golf and invitation
tournament golf did he start on his
big winning streak. In the years of
1926, 1927 and 1928 George won
nearly 40 matches in tournaments be-
fore he dropped one. And in 1928 he
won the qualifying medal in the anna
teur championship.
In 1929 he went to the semi-final
and looked like winner before Jimmy
Johnston bounced pitch shot off a
tree at Pebble Beach and whipped
George on the thirty-ninth hole. In
1880 he was member of the Walker
Cup team and came within a putt of
licking Bob Jones at st. Andrews.
Not Quite Good Enough.
HELD, the other public links star,
who has gone we'll in big tourna-
ments, never has been able to get
along in the United States amateur
title tourney, even though he has
grabbed two Canadian championships.
Eddie is a good golfer, but he isn't
good enough. So was George Aulbach
and so is Frankie Strafaci, the Brook
lyn boy who holds the championship
today But on the record, the public
links boys, good as they are, cannot
seem TO bust through and grab the
big championship.
Rumor has it, for the 'steenth time,
that Indian Spring is to be cut up
into building lots with some 30
pretty little bungalows to adorn one
of the fairways =. but no one con-
nected with the club is talking . u.
Fred Mcleod agrees with Tommy
Armour that the pro tournament
racket is the toughest setup in pro-
fessional sport . Lawson Little prob
ably will spend few days here again
on his way North after the Jones
tourney early in April.

of the shining lights of the Berlin
pageant. When you figure Eastmans
time in the quarter and the half-at

doubt that any one could ever meet
him at these two distances. Eastman
has q rare combination of stamina
and speed. He can hold killing pace
at 800 meters and still finish with a
sprint. He should be one of our lead

Eastman will be one of the few left
overs from the 1882 Olympic games

who picked up the laurel four years

VI Gregory Mangin in tennis
Mangin, three times winner Of the
national indoor tennis championship
and seeker after his fourth title, is the
games most prolific racket consumer
and that's why the sheep raisers
profit.
The Newark, NJ j., champion uses
an average of 48 rackets a year and
usually has each restrung twice. 1t
takes 80 sheep to provide the gut for
one string and two strings are required
for each tennis bat. AS matter of
simple mathematics that means about
10000 sheep for one player.
Rackets Cost Him SI,176.
Delving further into statistical mat
tiers, Mangins rackets, frame and
stringing, cost him S11.50 each. That
amounts to 1852 year. With each
restringing at $3.50, the work of fix
ing up those 48 rackets costs 1924
more, for grand total of s1,176.
There's a reason for it," explained
Stephen J. Feron, jr., who has the
task of keeping Mangin supplied.
Greg requires that the gut be strung
tighter than any other player. be-
cause he says he needs a hard sur
face to bring off volleys at the net.
His rackets are strung within almost
80 per cent of the full strength of the
gut. So you can say when he uses
them they're at the breaking point.
He's easily the games biggest racket
consumer"
Regardless Of the effect his racket
consumption has on the mortality
rate for sheep, Mangin can stand the
financial strain. He's successful
stock broker.

We may need a faster 400-meter man
than the books show today, but We
look much stronger at 800 and $500
than we have looked for years.
Something to Remember.
WE WERE checking back again
w with that Carr-Eastman rivalry
of four years ago.
1T will be long time" one trainer
said, before any one will see two such
men as Carr and Eastman driving
down the stretch. When you have two
men beating Al seconds for the quarter
you have something to look at-and to
remember"
Carr comes close to being the perfect
runner when 1t comes to a matter of
almost fawless form. He was the ef-
fortress flyer. He could pick up speed
without showing the slightest sign of
any outside demand-any form of
struggle. No other runner. except pos
sibly Nurmi, has ever had this amazing
smoothness. They were both like the
wind blowing down the track.
But Carr had the harder test to
meet at the shorter route. Eastman
has never quite had Cars smooth
ness, but he remains one Of the great
est Of all middle distance runners, and
after four years he will be as hard as
any man at Berlin to stop.
