Leo might try for q thousand years

The difference came on few puts

How do you figure that Bob Jones,
who probably planted the ball over
some 25 years as close to the pin
as any man who ever lived, had to
wait until two years ago for his first

And several lucky guys have
made aces in their initial ven-

When you cut loose at your golf ball

RICH SEASON SEEN
FOR GOLFER SNEAD
Young Pro, With $4,000 in
Sock This Year, Looms
as Midas in '38.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

Dy W. H. VCOhAAUMs
TINE young man did pretty well
through the winter tour OF
1936-37, and he didn't do so
badly through the summer OF
this year, but Sammy Snead, the White
sulphur Springs sensation, Is Just get
ting started In golf He has banked
somewhere near $4,000 in his first
full year OF bigtime golf, and he's
barely on his way, If you can Judge
by the way he has opened up the fall
season.
Sam now Is At Pinehurst growing
his shots for the pro links jamboree
next week. He will pair with John
Bulla of Chicago in the pro-pro tour
ney, which makes this pair strictly the
team to lick. Just to give you an idea
OF how the 26-year-old Snead man is
hitting the ball he played IA consecu-
tive rounds at his home course at
White Sulphur and never went over SO.
His low round was 81.
You can bring on John Montague
against Snead for our dough any
time. Sam Snead, according to some
observers competent enough to know
what it's all about. has before him the
most brilliant career Of any American
pro-perhaps even greater than Hagen
and Sarazen, who won everything there
was to be won over 4 20-year stretch.
He has all the equipment on both the
mental and physical side to be tops for
Is years or more, and he has the in
estimable valuable ability to stay re-
Taxed and not worry over the last shot.
He is billed definitely as the winner of
the open championship within three or
four years, which is quite heavy as
slgnment for a young man to carry,
having in mind the way the open has
evaded Horton Smith, the marvel OF
10 years back. Horton won everything
but the open and the P. G. A.
A MOTHER youngster who is billed as
winner along the winter trail is
Dick Metz. Stymied by injuries this
year Dick turned down an offer to tour
the Orient this winter to 20 on the
tournament tour and prove that he is
around the top Of American pros. He
won tournaments from good fields at
Thomasville, Ga, an d Hollywood. Fla,
last winter. He sat by = radio In 4
hospital and listened to returns from
the open and the P. G. A. last May
and June, recovering from a leg in
lection received in an automobile ac-
cident.
Ralph Guldahl, Henry Picard, Denny
shute and Byron Nelson won't be at
Pinehurst. Neither will Witty Cox.
But all the rest Of Americas star par
busters will be there for the preview of
the 1875 winter season.
