Ho,v George Came to
Get His Face Slapped

The dumb blonde on a country
ramble had been paying a great
deal more attention to her shy
boy companion than to the fresh
spring scenery. Entwining her
arm with his, she gushed,
George, I think you're wonder
full"
"Thank you, Mary" answered
George slowly. "And I think
you're ditto"
The dumb blonde pondered over
this. Before long they came upon
old Jollop, the farmer, who was
tending his pigs. She took him
aside and said: "Tell me, Mr.. Jol-
lop, what does ditto mean?"
Jollop thought for a moment,
then said, "You see that pig over
there by the fence?"

well, then, that other pig next
to it. That one is ditto to the

Laughing Boy
Most COlOrful
Links Menace
By ROBERT McSHANE


released by Western Newspaper union.)
JIMMY DEMARET, Laughing
y Boy" of the links and champion
of the masters, is the hottest thing
in golf today.
His victory in the recent Masters
tournament at Augusta, Ca, made
him winner in Of the IL major
tournaments in which he played ON
the winter circuit. He was out Of
the money in only three. This in
credible streak is an achievement
comparable to q ball player pitch
ing two consecutive no-hit, no-run
games or a track star running the
100-yard dash in nine seconds.
The greatest victory Of these was
in the Masters. Jimmy won it the
hard way. He was sick golfer
when play started in his semi-final
round, and even considered with
drawing from the tournament.
After a half hours delay he went
out to win.
Demaret, the pride and Joy Of
Houston, Texas, is more than q
championship golfer. He's a shot

enters. He has ability, courage,

on Gehringer's condition, one Of the
great ball players Of all time.
Jimmy Dykes may swing his
White Sox into the first division, but
it will take a gallant thrust to &C.
complish this.
Mr.. Mack's Athletics are still an
uncertain quantity. He has some
good young talent, but it still needs
more seasoning. His team may
move up a notch, but / can't see
them much higher than the seventh
notch.
The Browns will be a better ball
club. But they still have long way
to 60.
The Older League
Conditions in the National are
much looser, much more tangled
and uncertain than they are in the
American.
The Cardinals and Reds are close
to tossup. Bill McKechnie needs
much more help for his two star
pitchers than he got last year. Der
ringer and Walters are two Of the
best in baseball, out Thompson,
Whitley Moore and Wander Nicer,
plus some rookie, must come to
their aid.
The Cardinals, young team last
year, came from IA games back
after a slow start to make a PEN
nant bid in late September. You
must admit they have been none too
hot this spring. But big league
race is something different.
If they all pile in and give the
best they have, the net result should
be enough to win. They have a
strong combination of youth and ex-
perience in their pitching staff-and
they have Mize and Medwick.
can't figure any other pennant
possibilities from the other six
clubs. Brooklyn, Chicago and Pitts
burgh should be well punched.
There is little to choose here.
Frisch will make the Pirates dan
gerous. I still like the rating sug-
gested above.
can't figure the Giant infield get
ting any too far. Nor the Giant out
field. The Giants may get away
nicely. They are quite apt to do
so. But / don't believe they can
hold any hot pace after June or
July. There are too many weak
spots on Terry's club-too many
fading veterans.
Anything can happen in this
league for the first few weeks.
After that expect to see the Reds
and Cardinals gradually pull away
mot too far, but far enough to carry
one Of these teams into another

Battle Royal Seen

Ben Hogan, another Texan who
headquarters at White Plains, N. Y,
will offer serious competition in the
Goodan meet. This tournament will
mark the opening of a battle be-
tween Demaret and Hogan for pro-
golf leadership. Hogan got soaring
hot and won the North and South
and the Greensboro and Ashville
opens in succession, with the excep-
tional score of "a under par for 2l6
holes.
The Flushing tourney will place
the two sensational Texans on a
man-to-man basis for the first time
this year. They will be compelled
to meet in a hand-to-hand encounter
for 10 holes.
Undisputed king Of the winter
tour, Jimmy won 81 ,652 to lead the
money winners. Back Of him, &C.
cording to p. G. A. figures, rank
Ben Hogan with $6,538; Byron Mel.
son, A,513; Craig Wood, $3,60s;
Lloyd Mangrum, $3.50; Sam Snead,
$2.9O6; Lawson Little, S2,817; Clay
ton Haefnef, $2,7o6; Harold Nc.
Spaden, <e,5e1; Ralph Guldahl,
$z,40o; and Paul Runyan, $500.
Demaret also leads in the Warden

is second with as, followed by Wood
with III, Nelson with 1873, and Snead
with lis points.

Coodall Test Next

His woods are played with q
swing as smooth as q lullaby. He
is one Of the best Of iron players,
and is especially good around the
green's. Because Of his always we'll
oiled performance, Jimmy has
been called the present days near
est approach to the "old masters
Jones, Hagan and Sarazen.
The 29-year-old Texas pro is ex-
pected to make strong bid for the
annual $4,000 Goodall round robin
tournament in May at Flushing,
Long Island. Fifteen top pros meet
for this event, which is generally
agreed to be one of the stiffest tests
of the entire year. Following that
will come the National Open, to be
held at Cleveland in June. Jimmy
is looked upon as the contender to
beat for the National Open title.
In other words, Laughing Boy"
is going to be very busy this sum-
mer. At present he is at his home
club in Houston, but starting in May
he'll be hitting the tournament trail
for all he's worth.

That Friendly Grin

AS colorful as painting by
Raphael, Jimmy has a smile Of
Grand canyon proportions, a tre-
mendous flair for making friends,
and the happy-go-lucky attitude Of
a niger crapshooter. He is en-
deared to every goling gallery that
follows him. When he cuts loose
with one of those ear-to-ear grins
after executing a good shot he
makes friend out of every fan
within viewing distance.
His golf isn't particularly spectac-
ular. He doesn't belt out terrific
drives, nor does he can every putt
with wizards touch. He is, how.
ever, amazingly accurate. He hits
every shot with the utmost in nat
Eal ease and grace. He combines
the knack of relaxing with the abil-
ity to concentrate through u holes
of the toughest kind of golf.
