4 meager living only half q dozen
years ago Is taking over the spot

bellwether of the playing pros

When YOU consider what Eagle
Beak" has done you must concede
that the youngster with the stylish
swing has gone q long way along the
road OF becoming the pro golfer Of
the year around the humming
beehive that is Washington. He
hasn't won everything. You don't
do that in golf's top circles because
there are too many good men
around. But Worsham has won
enough and has demonstrated that
he Is good enough to be rated right
now as the top money winning pro
of the year around the Capital. even
If he doesn't win anything more.

Keswick Show Beqins
Round Of Autumn
Horse Events
Orange and Worrenton
Follow; Black Coddy,
Roeksie Meet Again
By LARRY LAWRENCE.

Next Saturday, August %, at Kes-
wick, Va, there will start series
of horse shows that has been termed
the Virginia fall circuit. After the
KesWick outing the vans move to
nearby Orange. Va. for the 42d an
nual Orange Horsemens Association
exhibition on Monday and Tuesday,
August 25 and 26. The following
Saturday. August 80, and continuing
Labor Day, September /, the War
renton Horse Show, known as the
hunter show of America will be
staged at Warrenton
1t is regrettable that there has
been a hesitancy on the part of Dis
trict and Maryland exhibitors to
enter the Keswick and Orange
shows, but it is due to the long
vanning distance to those localities.
Both of these exhibitions have ex-
cellent programs and, combined
with the Warrenton show outing,
offer 5000 in cash prizes.
Open Jumpers Get Chance.
Though most of the local horse
men have passed up the Down
Country Virginia shows, they will ali
be at Warrenton on opening day,
and not only local horsemen bat
hundreds of local horse fans will
spend Labor Day week end in the
heart of the great Piedmont fox
hunting country.
Each year this top-notch show
with its Al classes gets bigger and
better. While known as a great
hunter show, the management has
not overlooked the open jumpers
and the events for the fencers are
among the most attractive on the
card. Six open events and a jumper
championship are among the classes
to excite those who love to see the
stratosphere horses in action. The
5000 jumper stake and the $100 sky
scraper head the jumping program
and are attracting the best of the
crack open jumpers of this locality
and the East.
Old Rivals to Clash.
Heading the celebrities among the
great fencers who will be shown al
Warrenton are those two great
jumpers and rivals, Black Caddy
and Rocksie. The former, with a
record of 6 feet 6la inches, and the
latter, with record but one-hali
inch less. will continue their battle
for local height records.
The determination of the 3-year-
old championship of Virginia is one
OF the featured events of the show
and each year eagerly is anticipated
by the horse loving fraternity OF
Virginia. Horses to be eligible fol
this classic must have won or placed
second in a conformation jumping
class at any recognized Virgins
horse show, including winner in thu
Warrenton show. thus bringing tc
Warrenton the pick of the 3-year-
olds of the State show circuit. The
handsome trophy awarded for thi.
championship must be won three
times by the same exhibitor to be

Blunt Sees Himself
As Fighter TO Take
Title From Louis
RivoI Of Poland in Show
Here Says Neither Nova
Nor Conn Can Beut Joe

Bill Poland, Jack Kearns' hope as
a successor to former Champion
Jack Dempsey, is getting most of the
play as serious work begins for next
Wednesdays 25-round feature box
ing match at Grifith Stadium, but
his opponent. Eddie Blunt, also is
coming in for some consideration
since starting his drills yesterday
at Turner's Arena.
Blunt, seventh ranking heavy
weight contender who has upset
Buddy Baer and Abe Simon and
knocked out Tony Music within the
last eight months, appears veteran
campaigner at 25.S He is thick-set
chap who stands feet and weights
217 and who has confidence and
-poise
Both Poland and Blunt, naturally,
are hoping for a shot at Joe Louis,
but the lattersat least has no fears
that Lou Nova will win the title
before he gets chance at the cham
pion. I'm picking Louis to knock
out Nova inside of three rounds in
September" he declared Nova is
too wide open and Joe is getting
ready for one of his really good
fights. Then I doubt if Billy Conn
ever will make a better stand than
he did last June. That leaves the
field wide open and, frankly. I be-
lieve I'm the boy who can beat Louis
if l get the chance
Blunt admits Poland is good
puncher. but I generally have good
luck with punchers, he said. Il
keep them so busy they never get
around to clipping me. may have
trouble with Poland, but I can stand
up under his best punches and come
back and beat him"
Poland also was on hand for a
light drill at Turner's yesterday. A
shade over feet and weighing 1876,
his main weapon is a powerful right
hand, although under Kearns' teach
ing his left is improving.
"Eddie's a smart boxer and a
dangerous boy. and we're not making
any more plans until we get past
him next week" Kearns said.

HERSHEY, Pa. Aug. 20.-Ben
Hogan, COLTS little but mighty man,
comes home next week for a crack
at the $1,000 Hershey Open. scene of
his first major triumph on the
travelling pro circuit.
The 72-hole medal play battle
August 1881 is Hogan's playing
deput as professional here. He
switched from White Plains. N. Y,
last winter, succeeding Henry Picard.
In the money in more than half
hundred tournaments and now the
leading winner for the 1941 season,
Hogan returns to Hershey as one of
the prime favorites in this next stop
for the touring niblick brigade. He
finished second to Sam Snead in the
Rochester, N. Y, tournament which
wound up Sunday.
Hogan got his start on the money
winning trail in 1888 at Hershey
when he teamed with Vic Ghezzi.
1941 P. G. A. champion, to win the
round robin best ball title.
Hogan and Ghezzi ran away from
the field with a plus-17 score with
Paul Runyan and Snead Is points
behind in second place.
Ever since, Hogan has played the
7,000-yard Hershey layout well. It's
4-par holes lend themselves to his
style-Bens l35 pounds belle his
tremendous length off the tee. He
was q quarter -finalist in the P. G. A.

He came here from West Virginia

Nelson, who fired two successive

golfer. Mason is a member of Burn
ing Tree with q comparatively low
handicap and is a regular competitor

A former president of the Middle

Other GolfinK Commissioners.
A golfing commissioner in the seat
of authority at the District Build
ing follows q familiar pattern in
Washington. although Mason will
rot have much time now for his IA
vorite sport. Since the days of Henry
Litchfield West. in the opening dec
ade of the Goth century, many
District Commissioners have been
ardent linksmen. Sidney F. Talia-
ferro, J. Thilman Hendrick and
George E. Allen all looked upon golf
as their favorite recreation.
Allen probably was the best
golfer. He played Burning Tree
more or less regularly in the middle
80s, occasionally dipping down into
the high 70s. His links feuds with
Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi
became famous.
For years. Guy Mason served on
the Board of Governors of Con-
gressional Country Club and was one
of the clubs indefatigable golfers.
Several years back he moved over to
Burning Tree.
Club Tourney Winner.
Guy has no ambitions to be q
tournament winner. although he has
won club events. He hasn't the most
stylish swing around Washington,
and he'll never cut a figure in ma
tional championship, but no man
gets more kick out of the game than
the new Commissioner.
II the time ever comes when con-
troll of the municipal courses comes
under the District Commissioners as
some members Of Congress believe it
should do, Mason will bring to that
job a thorough knowledge of the
game and its problems Meanwhile
Guys golf nowadays is limited to
week end games. He fuds 1t difficult

Witty didn't have a single bogey, as

But the Worsham boy stole the
