Subpar Demaret in
Los Angeles Open

Record in Round !
By the Associated Press,

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 7.-Striving
to overhaul smiling young Jimmy
Demaret, who jumped into the lead
with a first round subpar 66, nearly
$50 golfers today set out over two
courses at Griffith Park in the sec
ond round of the $4,000 Los Angeles
Open.
Demaret of Houston, Tex, cut six
strokes off par for the Harding
course yesterday, equaling the lay
outs record, and went into todays
round of 18 holes two shots to the
good over Harold McSpaden of
Winchester, Mass; dark-horse Mark
Fry of Oakland, Calf, and veteran
Abe Espinosa of Chicago.
Heavy hung the crown on the head
of defending champion Jimmy
Thomson, who took a 70 yesterday
and still has hopes of doing what
only one pro has done in the IA
years Of the l.. A. Open-win it
twice in row.
Mac Smith Lone Repeater.
Macdonald Smith, the old Car
noustie master, captured the trophy
in 1928 and 1929, as we'll as in 1882
and 1884, but such other links stars
as Harry Cooper, Denny Shute, Ed
Dudley, Bobby Cruickshank and
Jimmy Hines have tried and failed
to duplicate his feat.
Retired today from competitive
golf, Smith viewed the tournament
today as grand marshal.
Close on the heels of the leaders
were Horton Smith, perennial ia
vorite with Los Angeles galleries; Leo
Diegel and Lawson Little, who shot
69s yesterday; while Harry Cooper,
who won the event in 1926 and again
, in 1887 over this same course, was
one stroke behind with a 10.
Snead Nurses Cold.
Back in the herd at the start today
were such favorites as Sammy
Snead, nursing a bad cold: big Ed
Dudley, who removed a yard of tape
from an injured side yesterday and
shot a commendable "a; Olin Dutra,

Secretary-Treasurei Amateur Athletic Union
NEW YORK, Jan. THE year
just closed, which completed a half
century of progressive and ceaseless
endeavor on the part of the AM
ateur Athletic Union, furnished new
records in nearly all, il not all de-
partments of the organization as
well as in the several sports under
its jurisdiction.
The totals of athletics registered
during the year, sanctioned events
conducted and organizations admit
ted to membership in the union hit
an all-time high in 1898.
Dual Meet Makes History.
More American athletes than ever
before in a non-Olympic year COM
peted in foreign countries and for
the first time team of United
States athletes engaged the track
athletes Of foreign country in a
dual meet. Our team Of 40 men de-
feated Germany in Berlin last sum-
mer. Also for the first time our
basket ball and swimming teams in
vaded South America.
With the Olympic games in Fin
land only a little more than 18
months away, and the winter Olym-
pics in Switzerland just a year away,
1899 will be year of preparation.
Interest in all sports on the Olympic
program is sure to be stimulated by
the lure of the Olympics.
AS has been the case for the last
several years, the A. A. U. Foreign
Relations Committe has in hand
several invitations for our track and
field athletes to compete abroad
this year. Plans also are under way
for visits to this country by several
sports teams this year. Sweden has
agreed to send its wrestling team,
Denmark its remarkable girls SWIM
ming team, Ireland its boxing team
and England 10-man track and

1t may be that the perfect"

around Washington who have
come pretty close to it. Among
them is Billy Shea, the 1897 Dis

back from Miami Beach and A
little golf around that swankv
spot. Billy played at Bob Bar
nett's Indian Greek course and
shot an even 30, which isn't so
hot for a kid with so much golf
In his system. But two days later
he went over to La Gorce, rated
by some q harder course than
Indian Greek, and did 18 straight
pars, with never a hole over par
and never a birdie.

Witty has had several perfect"
rounds Of the 18-straight-par
type, but he hasn't, 20 far as he
recalls, had the round in which
he hit all the greens in the re-
quired number Of shots and used
only two puts on each green.
But Fred Mcleod has had that
kind of round several times at
Columbia, which he has played
in 10 strokes with SO puts. That
means he hit all the greens in

u. S. Bowling Crown

Lured here by the richest OF all

that carries with 1t q top prize Of
81 900, q record field Of tho East's
foremost maple spillers loomed for
the ninth annual United States
sweepstakes that got underway at
Convention Hall at noon today.s
The second block of the $500
attraction was scheduled at $3.50
this afternoon, and the final five
games OF the 15-game event are list
ed for 7:30 tonight.
Bowling prophets figure out that
ii Defending Champion Astor
Clarke OF Washington can maintain
the pace he set in defeating Jack
White of New Haven, Conn, at
Chevy Chase last night he will re-
tain his laurels.
Clarke Wins by Two Pins.
The No. l duckpinner OF the Ma
tion, in trimming the bowler who all
but lifted his crown last season,
rolled for an average of 100, chalk
ing up a 3-game score of 39l to
win by a 2-pin margin. This 100
pace, or a score of 1850 for the is
games. is the count the dopesters be-
lieve will win the classic.
An overflowing gallery watched
the Chevy Chase battle. White
gained a 9-pin lead In the first
game, rolling 1875 to Clarke's 127.
Clarke retaliated with $50 In the
second to take a 22-pin lead when
White rolled l19. At the fifth frame
OF the last game White squared the
match when Clarke ran into a
split. With spares in the sixth and
seventh frames and q strike In the
eighth, Clarke again forged to the
front. But New England's most

spares in the eighth and ninth
frames to stay in the running. He
made pins Nos. 2, S, 6 and for one
mark and 2, S, 7, 8 and 10 for the
other. Both split in the last box
and Clarke prevailed in the clean
up.
Wally Pipp of Hartford, Conn,
swamped Jack Talbert, Marlboro
Hotel star, 403 to 1868. White and
Pipp combined to trim Talbert and
Ed Blakeney, 724 to 692. Blakeney
topped this battle with 1888.
In his bid for a third consecutive
United States Sweepstakes title,
Clarke will use set of new bowling
balls. Instead Of the black and gray
striped balls which carried him to
both his amazing triumphs at Wa
terbury the last two seasons, the No.
l shooter will use red and black COL
ored balls. He clicked with them last
night.
Record Field Likely.
Conspicuous in the grueling strug-
gle today will be former Champions
Ray Barnes, who won at Baltimore
in 1882, and Nick Tronsky, Connecti-
cuts greatest bowler, who captured
the title in 1888. The other cham
pions are White and Pipp. The only
one missing will be Jack Whalen of
Washington, winner of the inaugu-
raj in 1881.
From Washington, Connecticut
Maryland and Virginia have come
most of the sharpshooters, who

Right there you have the KEY to
me new rule changes, Heartbroken,
and l hope they are clear to you
now, because am going to drop the
matter like hot coal. P. S.-Your
secret is safe with me. This de-
partment does not sell names and
addresses of correspondents, except
Tor a fair price.
Here is another rather touching
little appeal, which has just come
10 hand, with 2 cents postage
swing:
What do you make of the Cub
Giant deal, Jurges, Demaree and
ODea for Bartell, Leiber and
Mancuso?-Only Child.
Answer-This deal was one of the
daff1est ever perpetrated. Gabby
Hartnett certainly made a sucker
cf Bill Terry, Or vice versa. A lot
depends on whether Leiber will hit.
II he does his average will 90 up
and Hartnett will look pretty good.
Hartnett would look even better if
he had his shoes shined once in a
while. This matter of a neat per-
sonal appearance is all-important
when you apply for a job, and you
will do we'll, Only Child, to remember
hat. Would you give a responsible
position to your Office to a man
who wore five days growth of beard
belonging to somebody else? Think
1t over
On the other hand, if Demaree
fails to master the center field posi-
ton where will Bill Terry be? I
don't know myself. but you might
try general delivery, Memphis, Tenn.
Finally, we have a note which
makes me kind of sore:
Please settle this betting snarl.
A bets on Seabiscuit, B or War
Admiral. Seabiscuit wins. Who COL
lects bet?"-Elsie Dinsmore.
There is a flippancy about that
question. Elsie, that shocks me. Who
are you trying to kid? All right.
then, whom are you trying to kid?
II there are no further questions
we will adjourn this meeting to the
