OMAHA, Nebr., Aug. 22.-Amateur
Champion Dick Chapman would like
| to have Uncle Sans soldiers swing
ing golf clubs as well as carrying
rifles.
The sturdy Army athletic officer,
cunning for his second straight Ma
tional amateur golf title, suggests
golf could play an important part in
boosting the morale of the soldier
boys.
The New York socialite, here on
a 15-day furlough from Maxwell

all challengers in the amateur tour
nament starting Monday, would like
to see:
/. A series of Red Cross golf ex-

attract tremendous interest and be

Chapman said the Red Cross

Strafaci, Charley Yates and others

Cross exhibitions.
Yates, former British amateur
champion and an Army private from

here, thinks Chapman's ideas are
great stuff
Chapman, discussing his own golf
game, declared:

you are champion. You're trying TO

Rx WALTER McCALLUM.

Which golf course around Wash
ington has the toughest short holes?
The answer won't get you a box of
cigars. or a package OF breakfast
food, but for sheer toughness we'll
take the one-shot holes at Congress
sional.
Witty Cox, the club pro, who has
seen all the famous golf courses in
this country and in Britain. rates
the one-shotters at Congressional
among the toughest he has seen.
They're tough not only because of
their length" says Witty. But also
because of the way they are built
and trapped"
Witty, by the way, keeps himself
in cigarette money offering two 10
one to any member of the club
against par on any given short
hole at his club. He'll also oct the
tee shot isn't on the green, and he
doesn't limit the wager to the duff
fers. Any golfer in the club from
Champion Parker Nolan down can
have that bet Witty doesn't exact
ly class 1t as stealing money, but he
admits he does better than break
even on the bet.
Those short holes at Congress
sional aren't short. They range as
follows: No. 3-195 yards, No. s.
100 yards; No. l2-200 yards, No.
14-225 yards. That makes all of
them either lengthy pokes with the
long irons, or wooden CLUB shots,
depending on the wind and other
factors. There isn't on that course,
for example, q hole such as the 18th
at Columbia or the l1th at Wash-
ingtOn, which are played with
pitching clubs and obviously, be-
cause of the club. rate easier than
those played with the long irons.

20 yards north of the present green
and will increase the length OF the

used as an alternate to the present

Use of alternating greens is grow

SAN DIEGO. Calf, Aug. 22.-
Fear that Halfback Bob Hoff-

received from the big blocking
back, who was called to Los An

ond year with the Skins. was ex-
pected to assume Ernv Pinckert's
role as the Redskins No. l
blocker. He is single and. ap-
parently, in the pink Of health.
A new tension also was evident
among the Redskins today as
they awaited the first scrimmage
of the season tomorrow after
noon. 1t will, naturally, afford
the first opportunity of seeing
how the players, especially the
rockies, react under fire.
