some of the boys Stebbins said,
because he's had plenty of expert

Cherry Hills Course
Made 10 Order for
Spot Playing Trio
Position Shooting Skill
Gets Sheppard, Ransom,
Fry Consideration
BY RUSS NEWLAND,
Axsnriatad Dress Gports uritar

DENVER, July 5-While the
countrys topfiight professionals
continued to sharpen their games
today for their private golfing party,
the P. G. A. championship opening
Monday, the sideline experts
searched the entry list for a dark
horse capable of wedging into the
winners circle.
Three outsiders were turned I'D in
the pre-tournament size-up whose
talents were judged sufficiently high
to give the big boys a fair run for
the money when the field of more
than a hundred gets off in the first
qualifying round at Cherry Hills.
They were Charley Sheppard, who
shifted from Philadelphia to Omaha
a few months ago; Lean Mark Fry,
California opeu champion, and
Henry Ransom, straight-hitting
Texan not so we'll known to the gen.
eral golfing public because such.
notables as the Ben HoganS, Byron
Nelson's. Jim Demarets and Ralph
Guldahls have claimed the head
lines.
Sheppard, Fry spot" Players.
Sheppard, blessed with a brilliant
short game, and Fry. from Oakland,
are noted as unusually fine position
players. Ransom enjoys a similar
reputation in his area. Their games
are made to order for a course like
Cherry Hills, scene of the 1888 ma
tional open, where almost every shot
must be played to a spot.
The trio, however, were among
the majority of entrants on hand
whose chances were held so slightly
they were classed as 50-to-1 shots.
Top favorites role belonged to
little Ben Hogan, the eX-Texas
caddy who has gone on to bigger
jobs in the New York sector.
Hogan was the country's leading
money winner last year. Tomorrow
at Cherry Hills he will be presented
with the Harry Vardon Trophy,
emblematic of the Nations low
scoring golfer for 1910. The trophy
weighs 140 pounds and incidentally
is TWO pounds, heavier than little
Ben.
Injury Apt to Curb Nelson.
AS 6-to-1 choice, with l over par
for seven practice rounds to date,
Hogan's chances were liked better
than those of the defending cham
pion, Byron Nelson, and Craig
Wood, winner last month of the
l941 National Open crown. They
were placed at II, pending arrival
and whirl at the course. The two
were due in today.
Nelson jammed his finger in an
auto door last week, losing a nail
and there was no doubt but what
the injury would handicap his play
Ralph Guldahl, two-time former
National Open king who won his
last one on this same course in
1893, has been on his stick since
arrival, so much so he confidently
predicted he would be in the thick
of the fight.
The course will be open to prac-
tice tomorrow, when such elders
as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen
are expected to get in a practice
lick.

CULPEPER, Va, July 5.-An i'm
proved brand of sport is assured
today in the closing program of
Culpeper's two-day horse show, be-
cause the weather hardly could be
worse than that prevailing for the
Independence Day events. Torren-
tial downpours punctuated an all
day drizzle. rendering conditions
almost intolerable for spectators
and animals alike, yet some $500
hardy, down-country Virginians
braved the elements to see a record
entry of more than 300 top show
horses of the Old Dominion and
nearby States battle for honors in
the heaviest going any horse show
on the Virginia circuit has en-
countered this year.
Cornish Hills, an imposing 7-year-
old chestnut gelding owned by Mr..
and Mrs. w. Haggin Perry, went
into comfortable lead for the
conformation hunter champion
ship by surprising big fields to
take three blues and a third rib
bon. The smooth-performing son
of John P. Grier- -Marvella was
given grand rides by Mrs. Perry,
who took her mount over the fences
in the heaviest going TO outscore
Mrs. M. E. Whitney's Spring Hope,
battling hard for second honors.
Cornish Hills accounted for the
ladies hunters, the lightweight
hunters and the hunter hacks.
Mrs. Whitney Near Sweep.
Like other days when the cele-
brated Llangollen Stables dominated
hunting classes in the Eastern
shows, Mrs. Whitney's ace per-
formers came near a clean sweep
in the important working hunter
class, with its 80 entries. The
Llangollen's old reliable Spring
Hope, fresh from her last week S
championship laurels at Front
Royal, took the blue over her BILE
mates, the gray stallion Bon Mutt
in second place and Strong Tea in
fourth position. Cornish Hills, with
Mrs. Perry up, broke into the COM
bination TO take the third position.
Cornish Hills outperformed the
Whitney horses and all other en-
tries in the ladies hunt class. Mrs.
Perry came right back to win the
third ribbon with Ragnarock, an
other Perry horse. Mrs. Cary Jack
