i:sAi> ..e1l x,seifor su,ha ,a,0rks for.

little gon WrlCer, VINO WOrkS Ior
the sedate old Boston Trans
- cript, bobs up today with an
idea for a golf match that would pack
'em in at the gate as few national
championships have done.
Glancing back over the list Of
former amateurs who have forsaken
the pats on the back Of simon pure
golf for the cold cash Of professional
ism, Linde asks, why not q match
between the star amateurs Of the
United States and Great Britain who
have gone the professional route?"
And what q match that would be.
Jock Mclean, runner-up to John
Fischer for the United States amateur
championship, would be on the British
side, says Linde, but what a glamor-
Gus bunch the American team would
be, all former amateur champions.
Jones Would Top List.
TOPPED by Robert Tyre Jones, jr..
= who incidentally never has played
as a professional golfer, the American
team would be composed of Lawson
Little, 1884 and 1885 American and
British amateur champion; George
Won Elm, 1926 national title-holder,
Jerome D. Travers, who won the
championship three times, the last
time in 1918. For the British side
Linde would name Abe Mitchell, Willie
l. Hunter, who now lives in California;
T. Phillip Perkins, 1928 British
champ, and Jock Mclean, the former
whisky salesman from Glasgow.
And then, to carry out the analogy
further Linde would toss in four OF
our better women stars to carry on
their little private feud, two Of them
on each side of the water. The Ameri-
can professional women would be
Helen Hicks and Babe Didrickson,
while the British women would be
Joyce Wethered, who played at Co.
lumbia in 1895, and Enid Wilson.
No Chance for Match.
THERE isn't Chinaman's chance
Of ever arranging such match Of
former amateur champions and wom-
ems stars, but if it could be fixed the
"take" at the gate would shame the
profits Of your biggest national cham
pionship. Can you imagine a four
some composed Of Jones and Travers
playing Mitchell and Hunter or Won
Elm and Little against Perkins and
Mclean? The Americans should win
the male side OF the argument, but on
the women's side they wouldn't be so
sure Of victory. Joyce Wethered and
Enid Wilson probably would be a lit
tie too tough for Helen Hicks and the
Didrickson gal.
There probably would be 5000 fans
out to see Bob Jones alone. And from
Atlanta comes the news that Bob is
not training any more for the coming
Augusta national tournament. the one
event Of the year in which he plays.
Bob hasn't done so well in his little
1ousts with the pros at Augusta, and
plans, so his friends say, to take the
tournament in stride this year, without
making any special effort to train
for 1t.
And he hopes the ballyhoo which has
surrounded his last two or three starts
at Augusta will be lacking this year.
To any one who knows golf its per-
fectly obvious that no man who hasn't
played In several big tournaments can't
string along with the tournament
hardened pros, no matter how good
he may be.

LAST SEASON

Production Of dry edible beans
In Montana this year Is expected
70 amount to 0,O00 bags, Jay G.
Diamond, statistician for the bu-
reau OF agricultural economics,
said recently. Last year the state
produced 16S, 900 bags and the five
year average Is $4,000 bags.
The acreage of dry beans being har-
vested this year is estimated at 10000,
compared with $4,000 in 1886.
The yield per acre, as reported at
harvest, averages 1,150 pounds. Last
years yield was ] 200 pounds, the high
est average for the state yet recorded.
Quality of the new crop is reported
much better than last year in Carbon
county and generally better than last
year elsewhere" the report said.
Rejecting the larger national bean
production in 1887, state bean prices
have declined sharply with the ap-
proach of harvest. The average price
received by growers for cleaned beans
last season was $4.15 per hundred
pounds In 1886 the average was $2.7O.
The Oct. IS Denver quotation for

during the heat of the day, eat
