Washington Golf Ace!
May Take Crack al
Easter, Crown
Shea, BrowneII Likely
To PIoy; Armour Firm
Byron Nelson Fan

There aren't any local tourna-
ments for the crack amateur golf
ers around town until late August,
when the qualifying rounds for the
amateur championship come up at
Baltimore, but meanwhile a few of
the better simon pures are getting
excited about new tournament
and one that looks to be good
one
It's the Eastern amateur cham
pionship to be played at the Syra-
cuse Yacht and Country Club of
Syracuse, N. Y, starting August
6. Only once before has it been
played-in 1938-when Don Schu-
macher, another of those hot Texas
lads, won from frankie Strafaci.
But the field this year will seem
like an amateur championship pre-
view, with Schumacher, Strafaci,
Ray Billows, John Burke of George
town, Dick Chapman, Chick Har-
bert and Bill Holt already entered.
Shea and Brownell Available.
Billy Shea and Bobby Brownell,
two of Washington's inveterate golf
travellers, probably will make the
tourney. They are among the very
few eligible around Washington for
the entrance requirements are stiff.
If you have club handicap of more
than one stroke, or a District rating
of more than two, you can't play.
It's purely tournament for the
amateurs Of the upper crust.
Tommy Armour, the sapient Silver
Scot, has new phrase describing
Byron Nelson, the man of the year
in professional golf.
Hes a greens hitter; not a dyna-
inter-" says Tommy of the tall
blond from Texas who now holds
the national and Western open
championships. OF course, Tommy
means that Nelson hits the greens
with his second shots, and does not
depend on an accurate blast from
a sand trap or an accurate chip
shot for his pars and brides.
Big Hitter and Accurate.
Nelson not only is a tremendous
hitter, ranking with Jimmy Thom-
son and Sam Snead,' says Tommy.
But he's deadly straight. He's
one of the truly great iron play
ers and one of the few today who
accurately can play left to right
and right to left shots into the
greens" Tommy became sweet on
Nelson three or four years ago when
the champion began playing the
tournament trail.
They call Byron Lord Nelson" ="
but Jim Kearns, Chicago golf writ
er, has better one. He calls Mel
son "Huckleberry Finn with a nib
lick"

Avalanche Of Trouble Hitting
Gionts TypieoI Of Come

The Giants were in the race. They
were the club that had the best
chance to knock the Reds down and
60 on to grab the flag.
Then came the crash Everything
went wrong. Slumps-injuries-the
suspension of Bill Jurges. Now they
are wounded so badly and have
fallen back so far there is scant
hope for them to recover The out
look now is that they will finish
much closer to sixth place than to
the top of the league.
Misfortunes of this nature are as
much part of baseball as the base
hit or home run and, as another
manifestation of the law of averages,
overtake ball clubs every once in
while.
The Giant team that had won four
pennantS in row. from 1921 through
1924, thus setting record that still
stands, was picked to run the string
to five but fell as badly shattered in
1925 as these Giants are today. One
Western trip knocked them out of
the flag that year 1t seemed that
every day they took the field some
body was hurt and before they could
recover the Pirates were in COM
mand of the race and couldn't be
headed off

In Southeastern Polo After
Cavalry Champions Bow

Stripped of the championship
they won four years straight, mem
bers of the Sd Calvary polo team
today entertain the hope that an
other Fort Myer team will carry on

played at Philadelphia today.
Although Sd Calvary suffered a
1873 loss to the Philadelphia Coun-

by the setback. Offering no albi
for his teams defeat, Capt. T. @.
Donaldson, 2-goal star, said that the

day and things broke wrong.
Three Myer Men Injured.
Three injuries, however, con-
tributed somewhat to the loss. In
the fourth quarter Capt. Donald
sons mount ran up too close to an
other pony just as its rider took a
hard swing and smashed him on the
hand. While not forced to leave
the game, the mishap did cause the
captain trouble in handling his
mallet.
Another injury that proved costly
was suffered by 1t. B. S. Cooke when

player and went down hard. 1t.
Cooke was shaken up severely. but
did not retire from the game Capt.
James Quill also received slight
injury when his pony slipped and
fell with him in the third period.
Artillery, Marylands Meet.
Capt. Donaldson blamed none of
these mishaps for his clubs defeat.
However, he stated that the winners
played hard-driving. accurate and
cooperative game. He says that
they appeared to be the team to beat
in the tourney, the winner of which
will be sent to Chicago for the ma
tional finals against the winners of
IL other circuits
Sixteenth Field Artillery was to
try to carry on today against the
Maryland Polo Club of Pikesville.
The two teams are rated about even

Mageh Case Brings Plea for Stronger Backing Of Diamonds Abes
Interiors League Lead Upheld
BY Murphy, Manager, HurIer
Trained in Major Ranks

Interior Departments hustling
ball team moved a step closer to the
Departmental League championship
yesterday when it hung q Al de-
cision on Maritime Commission,
aided greatly by Manager Jim Muir
phys brilliant hurting in the
pinches.
Easy winner of the first half of the
schedule, the smooth playing nine
has lost only two games this season,
one of which was chalked up by the
outfit 1t trounced yesterday. Thanks
to its latest triumph, three full
games now separate Interior from
its nearest rival, j. C. Flood, which
holds an early win over the leader.
After five Scoreless innings, In
terror finally sewed up yesterdays
seven-inning tilt when Lefty"
Jewett, versatile pitcher -outfielder
crashed long homer to right field
which scored Don Fones ahead.
After Maritime had tailed on a
wild pitch and an error, Interior
came right back with two more runs
when Sam Koenig doubled Johnny
Bozek and Jewett home. Just to
make 1t exciting, Murphy filled the
bases with two out in the final half
and then struck out the last batter,
something of an old trick for him,
Murphy Canny Manager.
Backed by several years expert
ence in the big leagues, Murphy has
helped his team tWofold since TAX
ing over the reins last spring. Be-
SIDES being an inspiration to his
men, he has hurled them into three
important victories. Should his
team win the flag this year, and
right now that seems most probable,
1t will be the second Murphy-man-
aged championship club. He was
the boss of the w. P. A. nine that
won the 1886 Departmental title. as
well as the city championship.
Many Of the players of that aggre-
CATION now are members of the
present Interior team.
Murphy has had his ups and

Aging kyer and West
Still Displaying Glass
As Nat Regulars
Vets Refuse to Yield
To Younger RivoIs;
Tigers Open Here
BY BURTON HAWKINS.

OF rather ancient vintage, the
Mats Outf1elder Sammy West and
Second Baseman Buddy Myer by
this time were supposed to be choice
specimens for baseball's museum at
Cooperstown. Cobwebby articles in
q diamond sense, those scrappy vet
Grams nevertheless aren't ready to
be regarded as relics.
They have demonstrated as much

at IS, and West, precariously close
to 1t, are swatting at respectable
1903 and 1902 averages.
There may be tendency to dismiss
that with a sneer or shrug in view
OF the Mats present plight, but to
Buddy and Sammy those figures
represent proof they aren't quite
ready to be shelved.
Neither figured prominently in
the Washington scheme as the club
moved South for spring training
this year due, of course, to their
age. Taft Wright, George Case
and Bobby Estalella were to COM
prise the Mats outfield and youthful
Jimmy Bloodworth was a gilt-edged
threat to supplant Myer at second.
Benched Bloodworth Gloomy.
Now, though, West still owns the
dubious distinction of being WASH
ingtons best outfielder and Myer
has all but beaten back the chal-
lenge of Bloodworth. Jimmy ad-
mitted as much few days ago in
Detroit.
The Mats were lolling on the
bench prior to batting practice when
Bloodworth sulked, II hope Spencer
Abbott gets a new three-year con-
tract to manage Springfield, because
1t looks like that's where I'm going
to spend the next three years"
Myer merely muttered, That's a
great attitude to take" but it was
enough to make Mr.. Bloodworth
wish he hadn't made that speech.
Buddy always has been at his
best when the chips were down and
he harbors no respect for fellows
who are too willing to toss in the
towel. That same afternoon at
Detroit he illustrated to Bloodworth
one reason why he still is around.
Myer was perched on second with
two out in the eighth inning. He
represented the winning run and
when Angelo Giuliani singled to
right Buddy scooted for the plate.
The mountainous Rudy York, De-
troit catcher, was waiting for him,
blocking the plate. Buddy didn't
detour. He whipped a block into
Mr.. York and Rudy went down,
dropping the ball Myer was across
with the tying run.
Washington went on from there
to win. The team hasn't been
going on from anywhere to capture
many games, but despite the clubs
lowly station Buddy still is battling.
Not many guys in baseball have been
equipped with as much moxie as
Myer.
West Mats Best Outfielder.
It was Vests misfortune to spend
a generous slice of his salad days
with the Browns, but at an age
when most players have retired,
Sammy is showing Washington's
outflelders how to play their posi-
tions. Sammy, in brief, still can
field and throw better than any
other outfielder on the club.
Sammy's versatility has been valu-
able to the lowly Mats this year
He has performed at every outfeld
post in addition to playing first base
HE always gives you everything he
has" praises Manager Bucky Harris
