Ormond Beach, Fla, February 26. - UP) Women golfers have about as little nerve as a picka- ninny caught in graveyard at midnight, and until they get more their scores always will be as water unto wine when compared to those of men.
 This isn't my opinion. and even if it were I wouldn't dare express it, what with this little town prac- tically overrunning with women golfers for the South Atlantic cham pionship. The opinion belongs to Dorothy Traung of San Francisco, and was given to me a few hours after she had trounced that Minne- apolis red-head, Patty Berg. in a quarter final round match.
 Miss Traung said I could quote her on, the subject because maybe when read it in print it will make me so mad that I'll try and have a little more nerve myself"
 The San Francisco girl said she was just as lacking in courage as the rest of her comrades, but hoped to add a little to her game before the nationals rolled around.
 "If I can get bolder, off will come strokes. And what's true of me is true of all the rest" she said. "If you don't think I'm right about women lacking nerve, just watch us putt for while. Do we try to knock the long ones in? .ot much! We are perfectly content to lay the long ones up dead, and take our pars 1 Because we know if we miss well have a tough one getting back Boiled down, here's the chief differ ence between Ire games of the good women players and the good men players: the men go out hunting for birdies. Nothing else satisfies them. The women are saitfied with pars. Let us get on the green in two, and all we htink of Is getting down in two more for our precious little par"
 Nervc is not all that Miss Traung wants to gain before the national, of which she was runner1up to Vir. ginia Van Vie in 1894.
 She wants to gain 25 or 30 pounds.
 I was a bit surprised when Miss Traung told me this. for most of the modern girls are inclined to think in terms of grapefruit and dry toast and a figure patterned after graceful fence rail. And was doubly surprised when learned she already weighs neat 163.
 That 163 seemed enough.
 But no she wants to tee off in national at Memphis 194 scaleSide.
 No more dieting for me-" she emphatically declared. "The full life. if you get what I mean, is the one for me. learned my lesson in 1885. I weighed 194 when I went to the national final in l034.' But imme- diately afterwards had girlish- yen to be willowy and 1.-the and graceful as butterfly. So started starva- tion rationS. Down, down, down, went my weight but - up, up, up. went my score.

Fred Perry Gets
 Over $1,OOO a Day For Net Work

New York, Feb. 26.-(UP) Fred erick J. Perry, the dashing Briton who traded his amateur lawn ten- his standing for American dollars, diLn't make any mistake. He has been on tour 52 days and collected approximately 61,00o. That's $1,173 a day and the tour still has 63 days to go.
 Francis T. Hunter. who with his partner, s. Howard Voshell, is con- ducting the Perry-Vines tennis tour, estimates that Perry will collect rearl' $l00,000 for his tennis serv- ices alone by April 30. And he has chance to pick up another $25, 1000 or $30000 with appearances in Eng land and France after the United Sta $ junket.
 The present Perry Vines series has grossed approximately $179,744 for 8 appearances, making 1t almost certain to top tn. previous record of $253,000 set by the Tilden-V Vines tour of 72 cities in 1884. The pro- motors have booked Tilden for five appearances against Perry, begin- ming at Madison Square Garden March 24. Four other appearances are scheduled for Chicago March 28, Detroit March 30, Pittsburgh March 31 and Boston April 5.
