School Golf Battle Wide Open
As Match Play Starts Today;
Mrs. MeckIey Sets Mark

There's no outstanding figure
sitting astride his narrow world of
schoolboy golf out there at Manor
today as the cream of the crop of
the high school youngsters square
away for the grim business of de-
Gliding champion. Unless you figure
that Ralph Bogart or Earle Skinker
or Scotty Ross fits the pattern, there
isn't any Buddy Sharkey around
this year to NOV the boys down as
fast as they are set up before him.
Buddy, the chubby faced Gonzaga
High lad, was the colossus of school,
boy golf last year. He Waded through
the 1888 interscholastic tournament
like Bob Jones used to wade through
the amateur championship when he
finally got in the winning groove.
But there isn't any Sharkey around
this year. All of which is a good
thing, after all When there isn't
any real competition there's tend
ency for the field to let down. They
knew Sharkey was the best last year,
but it's all different this year. You
could call chunky little Earle Skinker
the marked man. Earle won the
medal yesterday at Kenwood through
the soggy going with a good score of
rs. But if you gave the palm to
Earle you'd certainly have to give
Ralph Bogart an assist. For Ralph,
even if he doesn't win the tourna-
ment which winds up tomorrow at

Fine Argentine Horses
Won't Hurt Americans

Two years ago a team from the
Argentine staged the greatest mas
sacre of American cavalry since
Sitting Bull cleaned up at Little
Big Horn. Astride great horses, the
Argentines raced up and down the
field for % goals. But the team
they beat merely was the twilight
league champion and not an inter-
national American side. Today. the
Americans have got those Argentine
horses-feW Argentines, from Luis
Angel Firpo down the line, have
gone home broke, the market UP
here being what it is-and the
American players are the pick of
the lot. A Hitchcock. an Iglehart

'Deadening' Of Golf
Ball Would Make
Duffer Squea|
Loss of Customers Seen
In Plan to Cut Down
Length Of Shots
By WALTER McCALLUM.

Just as every one thought we had
a pretty good golf ball, and one
that would be around for a long
time, comes word from headquarters
in the sWanky Offices of the United
States Golf Association that the
solons of the game are getting
worried about continued low scoring
and may perform another major
operation on the ball.
If they do. and return to any
thing like the old balloon" ball of
1881. they'll lose lot of customers,
for if there is one thing the buffers
who pay the rent-go for, it is
a ball that has power packed into
its rubbery hide.
Joseph c. Dey, executive secretary
of the U. S. G.. A.. says something
definite probably will be done next
winter about cutting down the
length of the ball.
Duffer Demands Distance.
But no matter how low the
Sneads. Guldahls and Sarazens NAV
score it doesn't, and won't, mean
anything to the guy who carries
the load-Mr. J. j. Duffer. ESQ.,
For him golf is a tough enough
game anyhow, and if the moguls
reduce the length of the pill, they'll
take away his big thrill.
Scoring in golf is a comparative
matter, anyhow. We haven't noticed
that the general average score has
dropped over the last 10 years. which
includes the last years of the
rabbit ball, the balloon" ball. and
the present satisfactory sphere.
The experts are carving out new
records in most golf tournaments.
but j. Duffer isn't any better simply
because the golf ball happens to be
capable of being hit long way.
Nor does it make much differ
ence to the experts what the par
of a course happens to be. Par
golf used to be fixed yardstick of
excellence. Today on any but the
Well-trapped championship courses,
par golf won't win. 1t takes bet
ter-than-par golf to finish in front.
A Delicate Problem.
But the U, S. G. A. has other
problems. Their main headache
shapes up something like this:
Should We" they think, permit
our courses to become obsolete and
force clubs to spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars lengthening
their layouts to keep up with the
length of the ball when we can
operate on the ball itself and keep
the courses as they are?" It's
delicate matter when they begin
monkeying with Johnny Dub's golf
game. If they reduce the length of
the ball he's likely to quit the game
in thousands, and in lot of dis
gust. That actually happened in
1881 when the balloon" ball
came in.
After all, does it make any differ
ence if the record for the open
championship has been knocked
down twice in the last three years?
Johnny Duffer doesn't care and he
pays the freight.
