Shute "GiveS Lessons"

CHUTE was giving lessons today.
~ He had no truck with the tall
grass. He placed his shots like a
good gunner, and whenever Tony
came close, Denny pulled out his
potato masher putter and rammed in
long one from wherever he hap
pened to be.
Shute took the lead at the fourth
this morning when Tony explored q
trap, and he held to it without a
break the rest Of the day. Tony
kicked him farther ahead at the fifth
by missing a 2-foot putt, but Denny
made up for 1t by missing a 4-footer
on the sixth.
A perfect brassie to within 10 feet
OF the twelfth cup gave Shute birdie
and a two-hole lead. Tony cut it
down with a par to Denny's bogey at
the thirteenth, and they halved the
last five holes of the round in pars.
With shouting gallery at his heels
and a one-hole advantage in his big
brown bag, dour Denny started out
in the afternoon by clipping mashie-
niblic shot inches from the twen-
tieth cup. He won the hole and was
two up. He held this advantage until
the twenty-sixth green, where he
flubbed an approach, and lost the hole.

BRITISH AMATEUR
TO YOUNG YANKEE
Bob Sweeney, rs, Expatri-

By the Associated Press,

q ANDWICH. England, May 29,-
Youth and stamina carried the
25-year-old American ex-
patriate, Bob Sweeny, to the
British amateur golf championship
today.
Lionel Mum, veteran Irish lawyer
who was playing golf before SWeeny
was born, gave the Anglo American
youngster terrific battle, but finally
Wllted in the sweltering heat and sur
rendered, 3 and 2, in the 36-hole final.
L confess I'm a trifle weary" the
1rishman, obviously exhausted said
with smile as SWeeny rammed down
the final 20-foot putt that ended the
match on the thirty-fourth green.

third time in four years Bob vas

Years has lived either in France or

lfornlan won the championship in
1884 and 1885, but then turned pro-
fesslonal. Hector Thomson, Scottish
star, who won last year, was pre-
vented by i'll health from defending
the crown.
SWeeny, a sensation on the green's
during the early rounds Of the tourna-
ment, had lost that fine golfng edge
by the time he squared off against
Mum. This was particularly true in
the afternoon round when he either
won or lost II of the last l3 holes
during which he had two skies and
three fves on his card. But he out

was what counted.

~ ZANE JUDD'S decision last
Christmas to start saving
strength for the tennis season
by not shaving. proved fruit
less yesterday as the sixth-seeded
player, with months beard, was
eliminated in the first days play of
The Stars City OF Washington tourna-
ment.
Judd's appearance. like one of the
House of David. fooled even some of
his most intimate acquaintance.
Laughing. on being recognized, Judd
explained, Il never used to shave
before my toughest matches last year
and found felt in better shape. This
year I determined to carry on the
non-shave movement a couple of steps
further-flve months further to be
exact"
For while the decision seemed to
be bearing fruit. That was in Judd's
first match in which he whipped Leon
ard Abrams, SO, 6-l. But Austin
Rice, clean shaven and smiling young
man from the Army Navy Club, up
set the whole theory In the. third
round by producing more opposition
than Judd's newly found CD strength
could overpower, with the result that
the smooth-faced contestant walked
of with the match, 60, Ga.
Judd Is Only Upset Victim.
TUDD'S removal from competition
was the only form reversal of Wash
ington's first big tennis day Of the
season, as The Star-sponsored event
sent more than six dozen contestants
together in 80 matches on the Reser-
voir and Edgemoor Club courts. -Four,
besides Rice, and including three
seeded players, reached the fourth
round They were second seeded Dooly
Mitchell, seventh-Seeded Hy RitZen-

Larry Phillips unexpected stubborn
ess resulting in the deadlocking of his
match with David johnson at q set
apiece. johnson took the first set
6-l, but Phillips, with his back to
the wall. squared the match with an
8-6 decision. They will resume their
match this morning and the winner
then will be bracketed with Harry
Hefner, ninth national ranking junior
OF the country, using The Star tourney

Grant JuStif1eS Choice.

GRANT justified the confidence
placed in his selection for regular
duty, but, in the final analysis, Brom-
wich beat himself by wild and erratic
shotmaking. The Georgia midget
reeled of five straight games before
the young Anzac got his feet on the
ground or his ambidextrous shots

All Bitsy had to do was keep the ball
In play long enough for Bromwich
to knock 1t out or into the net.
Grants strategy, as we'll as his
acrobatic ability to recover anything
within reach and keep the ball In
play, quickly discouraged Bromwich.
The Australian carried more power
In his two-fsted ground strokes, but
ne was repeatedly caught fiat-footed
or out of position by the Americans
craftily placed returns.
Grant exasperated Bromwich with
his "slow-ball' tactics, which pune
tuated prolonged rallies, and rarely
failed to seize an opening. Bitsy's
only lapse came in the second set,
which Bromwich carried to deuce on 4
service break in the tenth game. The
tiny Georgian came back to score two
love games, for the set, and then took

Hard Hit by QuiSt'S LOSS.

THE visitors admittedly were hard
hit by Quist's loss, but Crawford,
as well as the youthful Bromwich,
played as though they were completely
discouraged by developments, off as
we'll as on the court
Bulge justified the high hopes
placed in him by the dynamic fashion
in which he polished off the one-time
world champion, Crawford. The CAL
ifornla redhead took command when
he broke Crawford's service in the
third game to start five-game WIN
ming streak. Crawford rallied to take
a 81 lead in the second set, breaking
the Americans service afterWard un-
der Budge's forcing Shots There
was no real argument thereafter as to
the outcome.
Bulge, while losing his own service
only once, broke Crawfords seven
times. The Australian committed no
less than 10 double faults. He was
slow afoot, rarely able to leave his
baseline and unable to capitalize his
steadiness under Budge's fiery attack
Don's backhand aside from his serv-
ice, was his most effective weapon.
Most of his q placements were
scored with it.

U. S. Needs Only One More Win.
THE home team thus built up a 20
lead, without 50 much as the loss
Of a set. The Americans now need
only one more victory to clinch the
series, with the doubles scheduled to-
morrow and the final two singles CON-
tests booked for Monday. They seem
assured OF decisive triumph, thereby
qualifying to play the European zone
winner for the right to challenge Eng
land, and making the trip abroad
with United States hopes of interna-
tional conquest higher than they have
been in most years since the famous
trophy was lost in 1927
The Australians, who beat America
by 30 last year, played today with
two OF their stars, Adrian K. Quist
and Vivian McGrath, on the side
lines. Quist, erstwhile singles ace,
who had been named to play the sec
ond singles match today was with
drawn upon the team doctors advice.
Quist was taken Ill just a week ago
with intestinal "flu," failed to recover
satisfactorily and was finally declared

 Deep regret the mishap to the Russian polar plane enroute from Moscow to Fairbanks will be wide spread.
 Fairbanks has particular for regret. As the scheduled American terminal of the Arctic flight, Fair banks was brought into world emnence and had every hope for the of the daring undertak ing The chief pilot and the navigator had been here be- fore and had many friends here
 Success of the flight would have speeded the destiny of this place on the undtheword and inter-hemis phere aerial traffic of the future
 But there is to be discouraged even in the face of such diversity attending great and dramatic exploit such as this.
 Pioneers in other great adventures have met with reverses but the forward march has not been stayed Where mishap one another steps in to carry
 Doubtless the great dream back of this flight will vanish The determination Arctic regions and up communications of the old world and the will prevail.
 The Russians have gone about their Arctic explor aons in no casual way Advisedly. and with elaborate preparation they have laid the foundation The several preliminary Arctic flights of the last few years and the establishment of a polar exploration camp together with the trans-Arctic flights this year but part of their comprehensive program.
 America is especially concerned in these undertak ings by great and friendly Northand neighbor This revealed the courtesies and cooperation extended by the United States government.
 The search for the missing planes, has started by the Russians anoher evidence of their alertness and aggressiyeness
 Doubtless they will push the search with all vigor and will have full cooperation of Alaskans and the American government and all who lend their aid, and the sincere hope that the missing be found safe.
