Juniors in Last 1889
Test in Maryland
Open tuesday
Mount Pleasant Links
Tough. Muny Golfers
Find in Practice

Junior golf championships in this
sector are over for the year with one
exception. The youngsters wound
up their biggest Junior affair of the
year in the Middle Atlantic at Ken
wood yesterday, but they face an
other major event next Tuesday at
the Baltimore Country Club, when
they'll play for the Maryland junior
open" title.
Just why it's called the "open'
isn't quite clear, unless it is because
public links golfers can play in it.
But the same f1eld-substantially-
which played in the Maryland junior
two weeks ago at Woodmont will
compete in the tourney next week.
Sharkey Not Sure to Play.
Buddy Sharkey of Indian Spring,
If he can get away from his new job
will be one of the favorites to win

Of the Old Line State.
From the ranks of the boys who
play In the junior tournaments will
come the future champions of golf
and all the sectional associations in
this territory promote junior affairs
But the juniors have gone outside
their own field and are winning
senior tournaments.
Boys like SharkeY Bobby Brownell
Otto Greiner and Billy Shea can
hold their own in any company.
Rough Is Real Problem.
Public links golfers who have
played the Mount Pleasant course
where the national tournament will
start July "a, are coming back to
Washington with tales Of how tough
the rough is at the championship
layout. Gus Hook, in charge of the
course, Is determined the boys who
wander from the fairway will not
play wooden clubs from the rough
He has let the rough grow up until
it presents real problem.
With the length of this Baltimore
course-it's $3.50 yards in length
you won't see many 68s if Hook keeps
the rough rough Mount Pleasant
happens to be 500 yards longer than
Pomonok, where the pros are scrap

this week.
Social Affairs Arranged.
A committee headed by c. K. Oak
ley has arranged schedule of af-
fairs for the public links contest
ants. These events will include a
dance. consolation tourney at
Hillsdale for those who fail to qualify
for the championship, a sightseeing
trip to Washington and Annapolis
and tour of Baltimore harbor, to
be followed by a crab feast and

The Middle Atlantic P. G. A..
championship tournament, which
won't have any cases like the Denny
Shute matter now convulsing the
master minds of the national pro
golf body, will come to Washington
this year.
1t will be sold" to some club in
the area near the Capital by that
master salesman of golf-Al Hough-
ton-the gent who sold" the Ma
tional Capital open championship
to, Washington and the Kenwood
Club. AL has been named tourna-
ment representative by the Middle
Atlantic P. G. A., to attempt to get
a worthwhile guarantee for the big
sectional affair, to try to coax big
names in golf, like Bobby Cruick-
shank and few others in this ter
ritory, to play, and in general to
put over the p. G. A. tourney in a
big way. AL always was cut out to
be salesman. AS a golf pro he is
very good, but his talents reach
their peak when he starts talking
about some pet idea that has
selling" appeal.
During 1887 and 1888 AL sold
Sidney Banks on the idea that the
Middle Atlantic P. G. A. tourney
was worth money to his hotel, and
Sid put up $500 in 1887 and $1,000
in 1888. He didn't bid for the
tourney this year, and the sectional
championship is like a stepchild,
looking around for some one to
adopt the, little founding. It's on
the market. and will go to the
highest bidder. /
Might Be Good Buy"
At that it might not be bad
buy. If some community or some
organization got behind it In a big
way, went out to solicit advertising
for program, got the big names of
golf on the dotted line to insure
their appearance. and made it a
major tourney. 1t might goover if
such a program were gotten under
way, for the tournament is a good
one. But first they the sectional
pro body would have to guarantee
the appearance of the top stars of
this sector, even if they didn't open
it up to the world.
1t will definitely come to Wash
ington this year, and now it's up
to Houghton and the Executive
Committee of the P. G. A. to "sell'' it.
Greiner Wins Mid Atlantic Junior.
Back in the winning groove again

dent who stood all the amateurs in
this section on their collective ears

trophy case goes the Mid-Atlantic

some of the finest golf shown by a
simon-pure in this neck of the golf
thickets this year.
Otto shot twin rounds of 70 and
60 in the wind at Kenwood yester-
day to spread-eagle his field and
win by five strokes. His score was
exactly par for two circuits of the

RunyanA Against Hogan
One Of Five Great
Battles Today
GuIdohI Among Bunch
Of Ex-Open Champs
To Go Out EARLY
BY BILL WHITE,
Associated Press Sports Writer,


NEW YORK, July 12.-Just to give
you rough idea of the kind of tour
nament is this 22d edition of the
P. G. A. meet, consider this:
Enough former American open
p. G. A. and British open champions
to stock any major tournament fell
by the wayside in the opening match
play rounds yesterday, yet there are
five matches today at the Pomonok
c. c. that are good enough to lure
tourists away from the nearby
Worlds Fair.
United States Open Champion
Byron Nelson and lantern-jawed
Johnny Revolta of Evanston, ILL.,,
will head a parade of twosomes that
include: Defending Champion Paul
Runyan against Ben Hogan, the up
and-coming Texan; Billy Burke, the
former open champion, against
handsome Dick Metz of Chicago;
Henry Picard, the non-melting choc-
olate soldier, against AL Watrous
veteran Birmingham (Mich.) per-
former, and Denny Shute, the mar
tyr, against husky limerick Kocsis
co-medalist.
Great Golf Stills Trouble.
That ought to be just about
enough to satisfy the most rabid
golfer. And it's something of a
tribute to the kind of play they all
put on that the extracurricular ex-
citement caused by Denny Shute's
status died natural death.
Early Tuesday morning everybody
was busy muttering What will yes
terday's fonus bolonus do to the P
G. A.?" There didn't seem to be any
answer, and later if anybody had
bothered to ask the question, it would
have gone begging. because the brand
of golf that flowed from woods and
irons during the day relegated such
talk to the add silly questions" cate

Washington, March 23.-(AP)-
Congress learned today that the

in the South is reaching "sizeable'
proportions.
DR.. Henry G.. Knight, chief of the
Agriculture Departments Bureau of
Chemistry and Engineering, told the

culture appropriations bill that GU
cumber pickles from North Caro-
lira were now available all year.
+, He said it had been found that by
proper control of the brine, pickles
could be produced satisfactorily in
the South as far down as North
Carolina, whereas, five or six years
ago it was thoroughly impossible to
make pickles in the southern states.
"The temperature is much high
er in the southern states, and that
was a problem that apparently could
not be solved for WHILE" Dr.
Knight testified, "but now they are
producing fine grade of fermented
pickle from that area"
