NATIONAL OPEN GOLF GROWN IS
 MONTAGUE AIM
Mystery Golfer Also an Auto Racer-Many En.
 agreements Ahead
BY HARRY FERGUSON

United Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 New York, Nov. 1-(UP)-John Montague is ready to sho6t for the biggest prize in golf-The National Open championship-if he can practice enough to get back on the par-busting game he played before he was brought east and acquitted on a robbery charge.
 ITO play in the national open is every golfers ambition" Montague said today after visit to Broadway
 He and his manager, Marty For kins, were standing in the lobby oi a night club at 48th Street and Broadway. People pushed and showed at him, seeking his auto- graph and trying to shake his hand
 Forkins got away from the crowd long enough to say that Montague's future was beginning to take shape although there still were many un- certainties.
 Monty is primarily interested in a plan to manufacture golf equip ment," Forkins said. "There is a deal being discussed now involving George Won Elm. We've got some vaudeville offers but I don't think Monty wants any of them"
 Auto Aacer, Too
 Forkins revealed that there was another line of athletic endeavor, heretofor unmentioned in the mans legendary accomplishments, in which Montague was interested automobile racing.
 "He is in the automobile business out on the coast with Ralph De Palma" Forkins said, "and one time he was thinking about enter ing the Indianapolis Memorial day race. That's another possibility. ] never saw him drive on 8 track, but they say he's steady. cool and has plenty of nerve. That's what 1t takes, and I know he can handle a car"
 Whether Montague will play in the national open and drive at 1n- dianapolis apparently depends on how his business engagements line up from now on. He was played golf only five times since last Feb- ruary.
 The national open championship would pit Montague against the best in the world and give him the opportunity to make the legends come true in competition. He would be going in against such sharpshooters as Horton Smith, Gene Sarazen, Harry Cooper, Olin Dutra and Sam Snead-men who trim strokes off par themselves.

Lincoln, Neb. Nov. 1--Lawrence McCeney Jones, who is known to the football trade as "Biff," is about to establish @ new record for military promotion.
 When he came here two months ago to become head coach of Me- braska he was addressed by the towns people as Major Jones, which was his rank before resigning from the army. Then Minnesota s nights Gophers came here to open the Nebraska season. They were anywhere from 1 to 1 to 10 to l favorites. But the Cornhuskers, playing their first game under Ma jor Jones, and using a new system, won IA to 9.
 The next day when Biff walked down the streets the citizenry said Good morning Colonel Jones'" And "How do you do Colonel?" And Colonel, Is there anything we can do for your"
 Last Saturday, with 36,000 of the local militia looking on, Bins team went out and knocked of Indiana, a squad which was supposed to win. And yesterday when Biff ap. peared in public everyone addressed him as General Jones'"
 If Nebraska should go on through the season undefeated, licking Kan- sas, Pittsburg, Iowa, and Kansas State, Biff would advance to three or four epaulettes past the rank ot field marshal. The citizens would create for him title that would make the one given Foch in the World war sound as humble as file closer of lance corporal.
 The Biffer has done a tremendous job. He succeeded Dana Bible,-and the people out here believed ih the Bible. When Dana left for Texas there were many who believed the alumni would accept no substitutes for the football gospel as laid down by Bible. But Biff has showed then, the old army game and made them like 1t.
 Against Indiana, the Cornhuskers showed this observer the best line he has seen all year, and one ot the best he has seen in many years Indiana packs tremendous offen. sive wallop. one of the strongest in the country, but the Hoosiers could do nothing against the Me- braska forward wall once they reached the scoring zone. The Me- braskans didn't seem to care how much Indiana frolicked in mid field or thereabouts, but once the in. vaders threatened the last line Il was Q different story.
 Half Q dozen times the Hoosiers appeared ready to strike pay dirt and on each occasion the big and veteran Cornhusker linesmen dug iii and hurled them back. In Fred Shirey the Nebraskans showed g tackle worthy to play on any mar,'s

 Confidentially. the Nebraskans are woefully weak on effense. They haven't a really first class back. The backs are earnest young men, and willing to give their all for the Scarlet and Cream, but their best isn't enough. It's shame that Sam Francis and Lloyd Cardwell had to graduate last year. With those two powerhouses in the backfleld this year, working behind the present line. Nebraska could go for money against any team in the country. Copyright 1887 by United Press)

The ice is down at the New Ha- ven arena; but 1t wasn't as simple job as 1t sounds. It took fifty men four days to rid the floor of 500 tons of loam put down for the horse show last spring. Then 7,500 gallons of brine were circulated through more than nine miles of pipe. Work men sprayed water for fifteen hours before a quarter of an inch of ice covered the entire floor.
 Matchmaker Al Caroly is nego- tiating with Harry Jeffra, worlds bantamweight champion, for bout with Johnny Compo as the star ate traction in November.
 Al Gamers failure to mix with
 Eddie Blunt may cost him at Least $l0,000-the guarantee he
 would have received for two New York bouts. And his hopes for .
 title bout with John Henry Lewis
 are just that and nothing more.
 John Moffit, arena cop, collared a couple of rioteers after the Gainer- Blunt battle and stored them in the pressroom under the watchful eye of two rockies. Don't let that guy out" John ordered, pointing to one of the arrested men. Then he return out to keep order. When he return ed his prize culprit had flown the coop. He had taken of his hat and coat, walked to the door and said: t: "Open up." The two rockies bowed and let him out. They thought he was the referee!
