GULDAHL REACHES
FOR SACK OF GOLD
Aims to Make Open Crown
Worth $25, ,OOO-Booked
in Many Journeys.
BY RUSS NEWLAND,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

DENVER. June l3.-0olf's rugged
individualist," this year as last, is big,
stoop-shouldered Ralph Guldahl, who
learned the game in Texas Is a caddy,
once gave 1t up Ia disgust and came
back to spread-eagle the United States
Open championship feld In two sue
cessive years.
First two-year title holder since
Bobby Jones' reign in 1929-30, Guldahl
finished with q brilliant stretch run
that saw him post SO, 2 under par
for the tough Cherry Hills course, on
the final round. His 284, not COM
parable to his record-breaking 28l
last year. was good enough, neverthe-
less, to set the pace by six strokes.
Champ viii Keep Busy.
BY his victory. Guldahl, the 26-
year-old Dallas boy, born of Nor
wegian parents, took his place among
the notables Of golf. Only three other
players have repeated in the country's
biggest tournament.
He pocketed $1,000 and retained
possession Of the trophy emblematic
or golfing supremacy of the United
States.
Guldahl, unlike many another
champion, will not rest on his laurels.
He win risk his prestige in the Western
Open, starting tomorrow at st. Louis,
and in which he is the defending title
holder.
When he won the National Open
last year at Oakland Hills, Detroit.
Guldahl realized only sparse financial
returns. This year the outlook is
considerably better. He figures to
reap harvest of close to $4,000.
He's the most important figure in
golf now since Gene Sarazen walked
of with the British and United States
Opens in . single year.
Would Like Film Offer.
If the motion picture moguls look
his way, he'll be in a receptive mood.
Exhibitions will help swell the Gull
dahl exchequer. Besides, he will
travel the tournament golfng trail.
Tournaments in which he has de-
cided to compete include the Cincin-
natl Open, June 1926; National
P. G. A. championship at Shawnee
on Delaware, July 10 to Is. and the
$4,000 Cleveland Open. August IL
to IA.
Guldahl's feat Of winning the Open
in successive years duplicated Bobby
Jones' l929-30 performance and j. j.
McDermott's 19l1-l2 victories. but
Willie Anderson's record of taking
three consecutive opens-l9o3, 1904
and l905-still stands.

The way hardhead are biting now
this looks like one Of the best seasons
down In Chesapeake Bay for many q
year, and such boatloads of fish are
coming in to all ports that it seems
almost q shame to take that many
When you 60 down there and take
more flsh than you can use yourself,
as likely will be the case should you
tackle the Chesapeake Bay croaker
any time soon, be sure that the excess
fish are put to some useful purpose.
Several charitable institutions
around town are glad to receive them.
If you plan to give them to your
neighbor be sure and sneak up on
him or her unseen, as we have it on
good authority that some of the folks
are hiding behind the curtain when-
ever they see an angler friend coming
down the street.
Rock also have started on their
summer stand here and there,
and good catches have been made
In the lower Potomac and around
Shadyside.
Capt. Robert E. Lee of that latter
spot connected several times recently,
bringing in catches Of from rs to 90.
Even larger boatloads have been noted
down the river on Piney Point and
st. Georges Island.

Among the gigantic hardhead
catches was one Of over 800, made by

Why Cox, Congressional pro, doesn't
string along with the gents who think
golf courses should be made into ter
rorizing layouts for major champion
ships. He doesn't think there should
be any major change made in the
course which the members play every
day when national championship
comes up, barring the fact that few
tees might be stretched out to give the
course added length. And as for add
ing . flock Of new bunkers and intro
ducing a bunch Of new hazards, Witty
Is all against it.
"Baltusrol in 1885 was the fairest
golf course the open championship
has been played over since I've been
playing in the tournament" says
Witty, with q backward glance at the
alleged terrors of Cherry Hills, where
the pros have Just wound UP the 1898
edition Of the Open. They didn't do
anything to Baltusrol for that tourna-
ment except stick us on the back tees,
and 1t was plenty tough enough. Sure
they broke the record there, but the
boys are so good nowadays they're
going to keep on breaking the record.
What I mean is that the tendency
is to make the championship course
q trick affair, where the best golfer
doesn't necessarily win. Mere length
won't do 1t. The big hitters maui that
ball so far that distance alone doesn't
mean much any more. But they stick
in bunkers where they shouldn't be
and they put the pins back in corners
where you need to be a Houdini to
get there. Suppose they do bust the
record for the championship? That
Is inevitable. The whole game has
improved and the scoring is . whole
lot better than it used to be. You
probably never again will see cham
pionship won again with 295 or so, as
they used to do. The game IS fast
and it won't be helped by making
trick golf courses out Of the cham
pionship layouts.
Il admit that no club where the
championship Is held wants to see its
golf course torn to pieces by bunch
Of pros. But they forget that the
pro has something to say, too. When
they let the rough grow UP knee
deep and stick funny bunkers in right
up against the pin it makes it
little tricky, doesn't it7 Personally
I think they should play the same
course the members played before the
championship, and If they add q little
length 1t won't hurt the scoring.
"And say, wasn't that funny hear

In the doubles final yesterday 1t was

too well. As result they took a sound
drubbing. 3-6, 6-3, 81, 81, from
the young French team of Bernard
Destremeau and Yvon Petra.
After recovering from an attack Of

RALPH DEFENDING

Open Golf Champion, After
Second Triumph in 8 Days,
Is 6-1 Choice.

ST. LOUIS, June l3.-The top layer
of the country's golfers, both profess
sional and amateur, made test flights
around the rolling Westwood Country
Club course today in preparation for
the 72-hole Western open champion
ship starting tomorrow.
Leading the brilliant field of $50
stars was Ralph Guldahl who is grow
ing stoop-shouldered under the weight
Of all his titles. He is aiming at an
iron-man feat. the winning. within
eight days, of two Of the country s
major golfing championships.
Guldahl 6-l Favorite.
After moving them down at the
finish line for his second straight
United States open crown at Denver
Saturday. the big son of Texas Is a
6-to-1 favorite to wind up on top here
Thursday. II he does he will be the
first to win the Western three times in
succession.
Between handshakes and autographs
Ralph managed to squeeze in a prac-
tice round on the course he helped
initiate few years ago. He formerly
was pro at the st. Louis Country Club
and it was from here that he received
a financial shove along the comeback
trail.
Fans Fond Of Snead.
Falling into the favorite class close
behind Guldahl are half dozen top
notchers, including Sammy Snead,
Johnny Revolta, Hard Luck" Harry
Cooper, Lawson Little. Tony Fenna
and Tommy Armour. Snead, the Joe
Di Maggie" of golf, is a pre-tourney
favorite with many of the local fans.
They like his walloping, even though
he fizzled at Denver.

Almost without exception all the DO
tential champions in this area have
entered the tournament. Bobby Brown
ell, the 1886 District champion, back
on his golf game after playing very
little at Duke University, is an en-
trant. So are Harry G. Pitt of Manor,
1928 champion; Levi Yoder of Ken

Parker Nolan, medalist in the Chevy
Chase tourney; DR.. Howard L. Smith,
Congressional champ. and Spencer

who ranks around the top of any anna

Toss men like these In against

and you have the setting for one
Of the finest Middle Atlantic
tournaments that ever has been

Only Roger Peacock, runner-up in
1884. and Volney Burnett, Maryland

cock will be unable to get away for
business reasons, and Burnett has an

Women's Meet Needs Marshals.
You never can tell in a close golf
match where the break will come, but
maybe the District Women's Coli
Association would do we'll in future
tournaments to work out a gallery
marshal system for the final round
Maybe the gallery, closing in on the
10th green, had nothing to do with
Helen Dettweiler's miss of her third
shot on that hole. Maybe if the
gallery had been held back and Helen
had the entire green to shoot for, in
stead of only part of it, she might
have hit the ball to the green.
You never know how these things
| will go, and second guessing still is
one Of Americas all-time sports.
But that's where the real
break came in the final match
Of the District women's cham
pionship.
Marion Brown finished as a cham
pion should finish, knocking three
shots of women's par on the last
three holes. But had the Dettweiler
girl flung a pitch shot alongside the
pin at the 18th, what would have
happened? That's one of those things
