Tie
Brings P|dyoff
In Open Golf
Harrison, Dodson and
Hogan Shoot to Split
81, 500 Prize Money
BY RUSS NEWLAND,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


OAKLAND, Calf, Jan. 13.-Oak-
lands fifth annual $4,000 open golf
tournament was finished for most of
the boys today, but three mus
keteers still were shooting for what
amounted to half the original purse.
Tied with 72-hole totals of 276
and prepared to battle it out at Is
holes. E. j. Dutch" Harrison, Ben
Hogan and Leonard Dodson had an
early afternoon date Il pm, P. S.
t. to settle ownership of $1,000 first
prize. $3.50 second money and $3.50
consolation.
A couple of broken arm" missed
puts changed the tournament from
a regulation finish into a play-of.
Harrison, the Little Rock (ArkD
traveller of the winter divot digging
circuit, was guilty of one. Hogan,
the little Texan, who switched golf
ing headquarters to White Plains,
N. Y, and became the leading
money winner of 1910, was charged
with the other.
Misses Four -FOoter.
Harrison, leader for the second
and third rounds, had top money
virtually in his pocket when he
stepped up to 4-foot putt on the
18th green. Sure, he missed it. Dub
players in the gallery whispered,
Hes one of US" It cost him a
275. He carded a final 3-over-par
73 for the Sequoyah course, after
three preceding sub-par rounds.
In the same threesome was Dod-
son. now pro at Kansas City, but
a true son of the Ozarks-Spring-
field. Mo. Dodson knocked in his
last putt for par 10 and a tie with
Harrison.
The gallery of 5000 transferred
affections to half-pint Hogan, the
ex-Dallas caddy, last to finish and
with a birdie on the 18 necessary
to win. The 453-yard hole offers the
easiest birdie on the course.
Hogan had a bit of luck on his
second shot. The ball hit a woman
spectator back of the 18th green
and bounced back into a swale off
the carpet. He Clipped up to with
in 3 feet of the cup, sized up the
putt carefully-and missed. What
a climax! Sixteen spectators on
the clubhouse roof nearly tumbled
of.
Amazed at the obstinacy of his
ball. Hogan glared at it. tapped it
in, and accepted tie with Harrison
and Dodson.
Fourth place money of $3.50 went
to Harry Cooper of Chicopee, Mass,
with 279.
How Others Finished.
Other cash was distributed as
follows:

F. {. {. 10 Consider
Revised Regulation
OF Chains Tomorrow
Proposed Rules Reported
Now to Permit Networks
To Option Station Time
BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY.

The Federal Communications
Commission tomorrow will determine
whether it will vote on proposed new
rules regulating chain broadcasting,
which were formally presented to the
full membership yesterday The
proposals as offered, it was said by
those have had an opportunity to
read them, appear to be a modifica-
ton of the original program pro-
posed when the commission made
public its report on its investigation
of alleged monopoly in broadcasting.
The proposed rules now make pro-
visions for "option time" by the sta
tions to the networks-time held by
the stations for the network. Under
the original rules the chains were
precluded from contracting for
prior claims for time in order that
they might sell their advertising
programs. The new rules also are
said to postpone indefinitely the
time when the National Broadcast
ing Co. must dispose of its Blue net
work to an independent owner.
Under the plan as now worked out,
it was asserted, the chains are al
lowed to option" time for period
of 5S days in advance. 1t is proposed
to divide the broadcast day into four
5-day segments, and in each OF these
segments a network may option
three hours. But, it was added, II
at the end of the So days the net
work has not bought the time, then
it becomes open to any other net
work. The two other hours in each
segment are open time and are
available to any network.
Can Refuse to Sell.
But those who have read the new
rules say that the station Is not
required to sell this time to net
work other than the one with which
it regularly deals. In other words,
it was explained, that if a station
has sold all of its option time IN
each segment to one network, 1t
can refuse to sell time to COM
peting network which might want
an outlet on that particular station.
The network with which 1t usually
deals, or which has all of its op-
toned time, can buy the extra two
hours in each segment, but the
station licensee is precluded from
contracting to hold it for a network.
nor can he have any agreement OF
any kind to hold 1t, it was explained.
The option time provision, how
ever, is said to be very strict one.
When a chain options three hours
in each segment and then buys the
time for each period, it cannot op-
ton the two other hours in each
segment, although it is free to buy
the time in competition with other
networks, the discretion being left
entirely with the licensee.
Result of Compromise.
The original rules were strongly
opposed by National and Columbia,
but were largely favored by the
Mutual System. But subsequent to
their promulgation, Senator White.
Republican, of Maine offered a
resolution for an investigation by
the Senate of the commission and
the industry. The hearings were
adjourned, following q suggestion
that the commission and representa-
tives of the industry sit around the
table and attempt to adjust the diff
ferences. Chairman James Lawrence
