TINE Winter golf season comes

played at Augusta. The masters

Tournament. The event was con-
ceived by the former emperor Of the
fairways and will continue to be some
thing more than an ordinary tourna-
ment only so long as the Georgian
is a competitor.
There are many wise golfers who
believe Jones will win in this third
renewal Of the Augusta event. For
the last two years Bob has been too
busy as host to the. field to corfcen-
trate fully upon his own game. but
now the tournament is so well esrap-
lished 1t can travel under its own
momentum and give Jones time to
play real golf.
Jones has played some grand golf
in Florida this Winter and there are
those who contend he is hitting every
shot from tee to cup with all the
accuracy of his grand-slam season.
It is reported that Jones is particu-
larly keen around and on the greens,
and if his short game holds he again
may rout the professional field.
Horton First Winner.
TT ALWAYS is a scramble In the
= masters field. Horton Smith won
the first playing Of the championship
in 1884, although he was rather wild
and inclined to be all over the course.
Last Spring Gene Sarazen was the
victor as the result of sensational
spoon shot from a poor lie that
travelled some 230 yards into the cup
for double eagle. Another scramble
is anticipated next month, with john
ny Revolta, the P. G. A. champion,
and Lawson Little. the double-bar-
relied amateur champion, listed as
favorites with Jones.
The Augusta course Is not particu-
larly long and that favors Revolta.
Johnny gets only average length from
the tees and through the fairways,
but he is unusually straight and dead
ly in approaching and putting. II
the mophaired kid is close to the
top of his game he'll be bad medi.
