Billy Picard, Aged 6, Seems
To Haze Right Dope on His
Daddy to Lift PIG. n. Cro,un

Byron Nelson, where four holes back
he had blown . 3-footer. That 10.
footer won the match. for Byron,
from the 35th tee, slanted . bie
shot deep into the rough and wound
up with losing 8 to drop the match
2 and 1. A lot Of folks, glancing ut
Nelson's 81 Of Wednesday, thought
the blond guy was q cinch TO win,
but Jimmy holes 'em in the right
spots. That's what counts.
Gene Loses In firing.
So did Picard against the firing
Gene Sarazen. Nearing the end Of an
ilustrious and brilliant career, Gene
pushed a four under par SO at Picard
and was l up at lunch. But Gene
tired fast in the afternoon, dropped
fourA holes Of the third nine and
reached the 9th 4 down. After that It
was just q question of holding on for
Picard. years Genes Junior. He
held on long enough to win by 3 and 2.
Snead had his nose out in front
all the way against young Jim Foulis
OF Chicago, winning as he pleased
by 8 and 7, but chunky little Runyan
had to shove some hot chipping and
putting at Horton Smith before the tall
man from Chicago shook hands on the
33rd green. Paul and Horton were
even at the luncheon interval, but
Paul played the Is holes In the
afternoon in 3 under par to whack
Horton by 4 and g. Maybe Runyan
has enough on the ball to lick Picard
today, but I don't think 30. They
don't often win this tournament In
modern years with putt and q prayer.
and Picard has more than that. So has
Snead, but Jimmy Hines Is . tough
hombre.
With Ryder Cup matches coming up
next year. you can be sure the four
semiflnalists will be on the team.
Hines is the only one who didn't play
IN the 1887 contests, but he will be in
there next year. Getting to the semi
final in the P. G. A. championship is
a rugged test for any golfer.

sHAwNEE-o oN-DELAWARE, Pa.
July 15.-Four established stars o1
the professional golfing brigade today
squared OF in the semi-1inal round o1
the national p. q. A. championship
at the Shawnee Country Club.
All four Of them-Jimmy Hines and
Sam Snead, and Paul Runyan and
Henry Picard-have been among the
top 10 in the national open within the
last two years. Rlnyan won the
p. q. A. in 1884; Hines and Picard
have gone as far as the fourth round
and even snead, In his P. q. A. debut,
went to the third round last year
before bowing out to beaten finalist
Jug Mcspaden.
Picard Walks Alone.
Each man has his peculiar ability
Hines with his long irons and ap-
proaches; Picard with his long irons
and putting; Runyan with his ham,
mer-throw" swing, his spoon shots and
puts, and Snead with his terrific and
well-controlled power OF the tee.
But only one has what might be
called . mental popularity. Where
Snead and Runyan are easy to ap-
proach, and Hines is as amiable as q
sailor on short leave, Picard Is cold
aloof and q man who walks alone.
It seems his own responsibility that
Henry does so. The man who has
been tabled as a coming national
champion ever since he first Joined
the tournament troupe simply makes
no extra effort to be pleasant.
Lay it to Concentration.
Some attribute it to the fact that
Henry concentrates 80 deeply on his
game that he will brook no interrupt
ton, no matter how slight and nc
matter at what cost to his popularity
Whatever the reason. 'Pic" doesn't
Join in locker-room chinning. In 36-
hole rounds he eats alone and, due tc
an easily upset stomach, frequently
eats lightly. II he's asked to describe
his round, he gives the facts and only
the facts.
Picard, in other words, remains Z
man Of mystery despite well estab-
lished reputation which includes the
fact he's been among the top money
winners for years.

Once Were Throuehbreds
And Went Lono Distances.

In those days most racing trotters
were thoroughbreds. slighter in out
line and stamina than the modern
harness horse. They trotted 4. 8 and
80 miles over English roads to win
side bets for their titled owners, but
their speed and power would not have
been enough to win today.
Messenger produced q large family
over here, including a strapping son
named Hambletonian. Thoroughbreds
were rare in this country then. Own
ers often bred them to the strong
native horses of more democratic an
cestry, Canadian and American.
Hambletonian was mated with a ma
tive belle. This was the start of the
standardized line which today in
cludes all the harness horses in the
United States.
Messenger. father of Hambletonian,
who brought the line from England,
was a gray horse. And though the
color Is rare the modern champion
the greatest troing horse foaled on this
continent. Is a gray. That's the full
cycle.
Like Palm, the experts at the track
were unmoved by Greyhound's failure
to smash a record in his latest bout
with time. They still call him a
better horse than Dan Patch or
Peter Manning or any you can name.
Coming out for the test, with his
trainer in the sulky, behind the high
bicycle wheels, the Hound warmed
up sOlemnly for some time. A chest
nut horse stepped beside him to pace
the first half mile.s The little brown
mare was over on the other side of
the track, ready to pick up the Sec
ond half.
The start was good and the first
quarter was easy trotting. just under
81 seconds. The second was the
fastest, 29A. And then, while the
critics announced freely that he had
. record in his pocket, Greyhound
ran a slower second half, just slow
enough to miss the goal.
That's one days trotting. He'll be
back, and the record will 20 down,

maybe the greatest on . one-year'a

You know one Of the reasons Bobby
Jones quit golf? He told me that he
did not think 1t was worth while to
take the mental and nerve beating he
had taken from 1914 to 1880 mat
ter OF 16 years. And don't forget he
took plenty-more than Baer o,
Schmeling.
"1ll tell you why Jones made such q
brilliant showing" Armour said, from
1922 through 1890, where he finished
one-two for nine years. He was will.

most Of us would take. He worked
harder and suffered more. He had in.

he had to concentrate on every shot
Did it ever occur to you that few
human beings can concentrate on an,
one thing for even . minute at q
time? Well, I'll tell you they can't.
It's Constant Concentration.
But to win at golf you have tc

all day long-not just . few minutes
And I'll tell you this is mental and
nerve beating, not an intellectual test
in any sense Of the word. Just a grir
on yourself from morning until just
about dark.
ANY one with even what you might
call an inkling Of so-called CUTS, can
take a beating. A Zulu savage can
take that. It was Fuzzy-Wuzzy who

If you think that Just being able
to take it on the chin is courage and
that there is no other courage except
the physical, then I'll move you back
to the cavemen and the age of the
anthropoid intelligenc>to the day
when minds were mindless, when
brains were brainless, and when there
were no nerves except those involved
in the despair Of hunger and the
desperation of defeat that meant

CoIIed Greatest Trotter
And Sure to Clip Record.

Hes the best trotter that ever
lived" he said. with brisk shake
of his sparsely- -thatched head. We'll
clip that record another afternoon"
And It's true that Greyhound still
has his head and shoulders hunched
high above the rest Of the world of
trotting. He's the Joe Louis Of his
game. You could tell that from the
crowd that thronged the little track
in the valley outside this green farm
ing town to watch horse compete
with a clock. They didn't come to
see the clock.
Greyhound has taken more falls
out of that clock that any trotter
before him. His work this time, though
short of his best, was as good as any
thing the great Dan Patch ever ac-
complished. And his time on a mile
track last year-1.56 flat-broke a
world record that had stood since the
days Of Peter Manning.
The experts mentioned significant
fact about Greyhound as they stood in
q little circle near the finish line, after
the trial. These fellows have the look
and manner of farmers, but they rattle
of the statistics of their trade as
glibly as city bookmaker calling over
the early line.
Hes a gray horse" said one of
them. ''and so was Messenger. That's
Q full cycle"
Messenger was the lineal forbear of
every trotter and PAGER now doing
business on this continent. He was
an English thoroughbred, gray in color
as the winter sky, and was bought by
an American and brought over here
around the turn Of the 18th century
to stand in stud

From The

Greyhound's Failure to Set
Record Laid to Slow Track.
BY JOHN LARDNER,


GOSHEN. N. Y, July 15.-World
records do not fall always as adver-
tised. and Greyhound, the greatest
trotting horse of his generation, was
one-and-a-half seconds short of a
new mile standard for a half-mile
track up here on Goshen's historic
speedway when he trotted the distance
In 2 minutes and l second.
The record (his OWN is 1.59%
As he rounded the track for the first
time, passed the starting line again,
and lit out on the second half-mile
behind the pace of pert brown mare,
he seemed to have the situation at
his mercy. He reached the halfway
point in minute flat-and. during
the last few weeks, the Hound has
been trotting his second half con-
sistently faster than his first.
But the footing was sluggish, and
1t tired him.
1T wasn't his track" said Sep
Palm. his trainer, who raised the big
gray glider from a colt and drove
him against the clock yesterday. "He
likes it fresher There was nothing
wrong with Greyhound. He'll get the
best out of any kind of track, and
he got the best there was to be
had out of this one"
Palm watched them unhitch the
gray horse from the sulky.

WAGE 'COLLUS|0N'
WARNING ISSUED
Andrews Hints Buyers of
Hot Goods Might Be
in for TorubIe.

Elmer F. Andrews, wage-hour law
administrator, hinted yesterday that
buyers might be in for trouble if they
knowingly purchased hot" goods.
BY hot goods, he meant those pro-
duced at standards lower than the law
provides and circulated in interstate
commerce
At a press conference, a reporter
asked him questions about "collusion"
between buyers and sellers. Saying he
did not want to work any hardships
on persons who made honest mistakes,
the administrator added:
But where there is evidence of COL
lusion, where a person buys with the
full knowledge that the goods are
manufactured contrary to law, GER
tainly this section (section l5) ought
to be taken into account"
Fine Up to $4,000.
Section Is of the act makes it un-
lawful to offer for interstate transport
tation and sale goods produced by
workers employed in violation of the
minimum wage and maximum hour
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards
Act. The following section prescribes
a fine up to $4,000 or six months
Imprisonment.

said, IF gentleman like Mr.. Perkins

manufacturer) who says he is not 60

into interstate commerce. Will he be
able to sell them in interstate COM
merce"
Mr.. Perkins announced last Sunday
that he could not afford to abide by
the law and would defy it. In 1888 he
was convicted in Federal Court of vio-
,ating the N. R. A., but before his ap-
peal could be decided the Supreme
Court outlawed the Blue Eagle statute
Clarification of the question of which
retail establishments should come un-
der the law has been given in ruling
Of the Wage-Hour Administration s
general counsel, Calvert Magruder, to
the effect that all except those selling
more than so per cent outside their
own State shall be exempt
1t had been said unofficially previ-
ously that the coverage would extend
to all such establishments sending 20
per cent Of their merchandise over
State borders, but Mr. Magruder held
that the law plainly intended the divi-
sion to be SO per cent.
Under the ruling, it was said that
retail store employees of chain organi-
cations would have the same status as
those OF independent stores, but that
the wholesale units of the chains would
oe under different classification.
Certification Question.
Some of Mr.. Andrews aides said
purchasing agents have inquired
whether the wage-hour act required
manufacturers to certify, as was done
in N. R. A. days, that the goods Of
fered for sale were made in compliance
with the Wage-hour regulations. The
I law does not require such certification.
The administrator said he had re-
ceNed requests for rulings which would
exempt from the wage and hour pro-
visions of the act employees of the Ma
tional Association of Band Instrument
Manufacturers, Elkhart, Ind; the Ma
tional Paper Box Manufacturers Asso-
citation, the United States Beet Sugar
Association and dried fruit packers of
the Pacific Coast.
The American Stock Yards Associa-
tion also applied for an exemption
ruling, but was turned down by Mr..

Found very effective ia
treating head-co|ds
Now Americans develop new,
better Ephedrine prescription

With the discovery of the Chinese
drug Ephedrine, science took a great
step forward in its fight against head
colds! When you have a head-cold,
the membranes of your nose become
swollen, thus interfering with normal
breathing. Ephedrine has the remark
able power TO shrink almost instantly
these swollen, irritated membranes
thus tending to clear the nasal passa-
ges, make normal breathing easier.
Now comes new and important
development in the use of this mar
velous drug! The makers of REM for
Coughs have perfected a remarkable
Ephedrine prescription for use in re-
lieving head-colds. 1t is called REL.
REL combines a special form of
Ephedrine with another valuable in
gredient. In step with advanced med
ical opinion, REL is water soluble"
-. not an oil. SO it mixes instantly
with the watery secretions of the nose.
That's why REL is absorbed so quick
