Walsh Says P. G. A. Enjoyed
Its Greatest Year In 1910
BY TOM WALSH
president, Professional Golfers

Association of America)
CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-R-The
Professional Golfers Association of
America enjoyed one of the nest
years in its history in 1910, a year
marked by an increase in associ-
alton membership, successful &C.
complishment of it's Red Cross war
relief aims and another fine COM
petitive program.
Forty-four new members were
added, with 10 of our 20 sections
showing gains in members over
1889.
Especially gratifying to every
member of our association was the
success of its drive for Red Cross
funds. More than $50, 900 was
raised for wal relief through the
year. with members from every
section of the country assisting
splendidly in the program.
The highlight event of this move
ment was the Ryder cup team
match with the challenge team
headed by Gene Sarazen. This
event, arranged by Ed Dudley,
chairman of the tournament COM
mittee, and Fred Corcoran, man
ager of our tournament bureau,
was a hi gh spot of the sports year
and realized more than $12, 900 for
the Red Cross.
The tournament program was
one of the best ever sponsored by
the P. G. A. Some 26 tournaments
were held, with professionals split
ting approximately $3.50, 900. Evil
ence of the success of this pro-
gram, directed by Mr.. Dudley and
Mr.. Corcoran, is the fact that the
tournament bureau has been able
to re-schedule every tournament on
the 1910 list for next year.
The recently completed Miami
Open drew the largest crowds in
its history, a fact which augers
well for 1941. The .windup of this
tourney, won by Byron Nelson, also
winner of the highl successful P.
G.. A. championship last summer,
saw Ben Hogan of White Plains,
N. Y, win both the years money
winning title and the Vardon tro-
ply.
Members of the association are
meeting the problem of the draft
in the same splendid manner in
which they aided. in the war relief
fund drive. Our professionals re-
port that clubs from all parts OF
the nation r guaranteeing reten-
ton of their positions to our pros
who r drafted for army service
or enlist. The association itself
will carry the dues of any member
drafted or volunteering for service.
With athletics playing an even
bigger part in our national pre-
paredness program, we of the P.
G. A. believe golf is heading for a
boom not only in 1911 but for Jew
eral years to come. The game,
with more players than ever,

physical condition of both young
and old.
Our caddie educational program
will be carried on. Numerous bene-
fit matches for P. G. A. war relief
will be promoted. And with sew
eral excellent tournaments coming
up early this year, the Professional
Golfers association is confident of
another fine competitive playing
schedule. /

John, Elliott and James Roose-
welt. Their mother, Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt, was present, too, of
course, and so were other men,
bers of the family, and people
from the estate.
Some of the latter had spent
most of their lives on the Roose-
welt acres, and the death of Mrs.
Roosevelt was personal loss
for them, too.
There was William Plog, SUI
perintendent of the estate, who
has been around for As years.
There was his assistant, Charles
Van Keuran, with Al years OF
service. For % years Louis De-
pew was Mrs. Roosevelt's chauf-
feur; for 19 years Robert Nc
Gaughey her butler.
Moses Smith, the tenant farm
err, has titled Roosevelt acreage
for % years.
From among these and others
the pallbearers were selected,
just as they were chosen from
workmen on the place when
James Roosevelt, the Presidents
father, died in 1900.
BURIED BESIDE HUSBAND
In a brick-lined underground
vault, sealed by chiseled stone,
Sara Delano Roosevelt was to
be buried beside her husband.
Throughout the night, service
men and state troopers had stood
guard in the churchyard. AS the
hour drew near for the funeral
procession to approach, the Post
Road was closed, traffice de-
Elected and curious spectators
barred from the immediate vi
cinity of the church.
Only those same persons who
had been so closely associated
with the Presidents mother in
life, and who had been invited
to the services at the house, were
permitted to come also to the
final rites beside the grave.
The chief executive was deep
ly devoted to his mother and her
death could not be less than a
blow to him. But he was describ-
ed as bearing up we'll under the
strain"
That was what Mrs. Moses
Smith said the First Lady told
her yesterday. Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt also related that her
husband had not planned orig
inally to come to Hyde Park this
weekend, but she had had "a
feeling" he should.
He followed her advice and
so was able to visit with his
mother several times on Satur-
day.
In the midst of his bereave-
mcnt, Mr.. Roosevelt was unable
wholly to escape the tasks which
confront the man i'm the White
House. Papers of one sort or an
other had to be signed and hur-
ried back to Washington at reg
ular intervals.
