Pressure of Title Golf Make 1t Real Grind
Wood Co|opse Bad Shape Time After With Nelson

Big-time golf takes it out of
any competitor. You'd never
think, looking at a couple of
husky gents ambling casually
over closely cropped fairways,
without any apparent physical
effort involved, that it would cut
a well-conditioned athlete down.
But Bobby Jones used to lose
anywhere from 8 to Is pounds in
a week-long tournament, and
most golfers figure on losing a
lot of weight in any tourney.
Nor would you think that husky
Craig Wood, runner-up in the
recent open championship, would
collapse at the end of his grueling
36-hole playof against Byron
Nelson. But he did.
Craig collapsed at the Phila-
delphia Country Club at the end
of the elongated playof and was
in bad shape for a couple of
hours, with doctor working over
him to bring the blood back to
his limbs. It's just one of many
times that a great golfer has
worn himself down to the point
where he collapsed like football
player after a hard game.
Golf is a game without violent
physical eXertion. No athlete in
good condition should mind walk
ing 10 holes, which amounts to
around miles, swinging club
70 or u times. Or even of doing
twice that distance and twice
that number of strokes. The
physical part isn't what gets
them. But combination of heat
and pressure and raw, jagged
nerves does it. Golf is game
which takes intense concentra-
ton. You can't let down in

Gates good prospects down his way.
He sends list of catches made re-
Gently by local anglers running from
81 to 125 fish per trip. The majority
OF fish were hardhead, with about
in every 8 or 10 trout. Solomons
generally is a particularly good spot
because there are so many places to
fish within reasonable distance of
the dock. If they aren't biting in
the bay you can try the river, and
vice versa.
Rock also have been caught
there lately by trollers up
around Point Patience and
s.. Town Point.
Early in the week fishing was slow
in some parts of Chesapeake Bay
because of that storm Sunday. But
things have perked up again and
this week end should find fishing
back to normal. A note from Uncle
Billie's Pier at North Beach said
that the fish started biting right
off the pier on Wednesday. Catches
as high as 100 per boat have been
made there this week. Boats from
there also go across the bay to
Poplar Island to fish for rock.
Almost any spot on Chesapeake
Bay will have hardhead this week
end, so choose your favorite port
and take plenty of bait along.
Bluefish continue to strike at
Ocean City, although some of them
have been caught farther north off
Jersey and Delaware, which may
indicate that part of the schools
are migrating again. Catches still
are good, though. The first marlin
has been caught there and the sea-
son is expected to be in full swing
shortly. Also there are trout, porgies
and sea bass.
| on Wachapreague recent
catches have consisted of
channel bass, trout, kingfish
and few big sharks.

sibilities of big-game fishing off the

And now for the fishing prospects
for this week end. That same
Eastern Bay, where the boys are
fishing today for the Walton dinner,
is good spot. A note from Capt.
Robert E. Lee of Shadyside reads :
Fishing has been very good, both
still fishing and trolling. Plenty of
rock trolling and cumming, from
30 to 135 per boat and from 2 to Is
pounds. Plenty of hardhead late in
evening. Should be even better this
coming week end"

BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Marion Brown is getting to be a
philosopher about golf, the game in
which she has piled up quite rec
ord for a 20-year-old youngster
The slim miss from the Manor
Country Club, who was defending
her District championship today in
the final round at Columbia against
the challenge of Mrs. Leo Walper,
tucked her long legs under her in
a comfortable chair, and said:
Gosh, what a game this golf is"
1t sounded trite and a little funny.
The obvious answer was, $50 what?'
What gets me is the way it comes
and goes" said Maid Marion. Here
all spring I've been pumping the
ball all over the lot. I couldn't
seem to get going. I hit 'em where
no self-respecting golf ball should
be hit and I just couldn't seem to
get the hang of it. Say, do you
know I once went and looked at
those big cups won last year, and
said to myself, Can those be yours?'
I didn't have any confidence, and
nothing tried seemed right.
Then suddenly it seemed to come
back. Not all at once, but grad
ually the ball seemed to be going
straighter and farther. And my
confidence began to come back. Now
feel as I used to feel last year:
that I can make that ball do some
of the things I want it to do" And
Marion took a bandage from her
thumb.
Whats that?" I asked.
Practices Too Hard.
"Oh, I practiced a little too hard,
I guess" said brown-haired Marion.
She showed thumb which looked
as if it had intimate acquaintance
with a lawn mower. You must
have done lot of it," I said.
well, thought I had to. 1 was
pretty bad and I didn't want some
one to lick me about 6 and 81
Marion is so casual about those
things, you wouldn't think she takes
golf and championship golf par
ticularly, at all seriously. But she
does. She played Mrs. Walper today,
and was a favorite to win The
champ always is, but Mrs Walper
is no soft touch. She was runner up
in the Maryland State championship
and has beaten some good golfers
In this one.
Marion turned on the heat yester-
day to lick Mrs. Myron Davy by 5
and in the semi-fnal. At the start
she ran into a 2-hole deficit. She
was even at the turn. Then she
played the next six holes in one over
mems par to win. At the end she
needed three pars for a n. Mrs.
Walper led Mrs. Hume Peabody
almost from the start, and won 8
and 2. And next week the girls
haven't anything to do but to play
in two more tournaments.
They'll play in the buffers" at

July 8. But these two proved them
selves best of the local field at
Indian Spring yesterday in the Sec
tional qualifying tests, and along
with chunky little Rut Coffey from
Winchester, Va, will represent the
Middle Atlantic sector in the pro
match play tourney.
Mel Shorey is the real surprise,
and maybe he is surprised, too. But
we've always found Mel the kind
of fellow who can buckle down to
serious golf when he has it to do.
Mel took a flock of 10-to-4 bets
that he wouldn't qualify among the
three men to represent this sector.
His answer was 68-7l-139, or three
under par for two rounds of the
Indian Spring course, to top field
of % starters, and come close to
leading the Nation.
Spencer qualified with 71-72-
143, while Coffey won the third spot
after nine-hole playof with Andy
Gibson of Baltimore, the Maryland
open champ. They tied at 145 and
Rut scored 36 against Andy's 81 TO
win the place.

considerable effectiveness Shorey
bagged brides during his forenoon
gallop around the par-71 Indian
Spring course. He had for a

of the supposed wise boys predicting
he'd blow in the afternoon, he came
back with level par II, finishing
with a 5. In this round he only
got two brides, but they helped.
Spencer could have been lower, for
he finished 4, against the par of
3, a.
And many were the tragedies
Five men deadlocked for fourth
place, only one shot outside. Any
one of them could point to dozen
spots along the route where he could
have saved that stroke or two which
left him out. Bob Barnett, George
Diffenbaugh, Leo Walper, Willie
Schreiber and Ralph Beach all had
l46, just one shot too many.
Over at Baltimore today more
than a dozen Washington entrants,
topped by Middle Atlantic Champ
Roger Peacock, were qualifying for
the Maryland State amateur title
tourney at the Rolling Road Club
Pnoor Y,fc ytyiy, fhic -
far as the records show, no man

Governments OF FEDERAL,
States MAY SOON PLACE
TAX, EACH OTHERS BONDS
BY PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, April pa few
weeks ago there was only remote
prospect that legislation would be
passed permitting the State and
Federal governments to tax each
others bonds. 1t is different now
Recently the Supreme Court
held that the State and Federal gov
ernments could tax each others
salaries. A bill was pending in
Congress authorizing that very
thing although some doubted it
would be constitutional in light of
earlier court decisions. But when
the Supreme Court reversed it's
position on the principle, the bill
was grabbed up and shove d
through in a hurry.
BY then the mere authorization
was unimportant. The important
part of the bill was that which pro-
hibited Federal taxes on back SAL
aries and invited the states to re-
ciprocate by not taxing back SAL
aries of Federal employees. The idea
was that it would be unfair to nick
a State or Federal employee for
three years of back taxes. Salaries
for 1889 would be taxed.
