MIAMI, March 18. (UP)-Give
Walter Hagen two hours of your
time and I'll guarantee that he'll
convince you that the modern golf
erS, with their sensational scores
in the middle COS and thereabouts,
aren't one bit better than were
the champions of the days when he
was in his prime.
The Haig started making his
point to me as the clipper rose from
Biscayne Bay and moved out over
the sea toward Nassau. and he
had me on his side two hours later
when the big ship settled down on
the pastel waters of the harbor of
the lovely little island playground
Hagen, whose II British and Am
erican titles give him the author
ity to speak as an authority on golf,
doesn't believe, as most critics do
that the fantastic scores of the
Sneads, the Hogans, the Nelson's,
the Littles and the like is largely
due TO the improvement in golfing
equipment. He admits that steel
Shafted clubs, a liyelier ball, and
the sand wedge have helped in al
most complete destruction of par,
but considers such things of sec
ondary importance.
The big reason for the low scores
Of today" Hagen said as Bimini
dropped behind US, "lies in the diff
ferent objective that golfers of
today have when they step TO The
tee. In my day Vardon and mis-
accuracy was our pattern. He
wanted TO hit the ball straight, and
we're content to get down in par,
because par has always been good
enough to win. Then, just as IN
baseball, finesse was supplanted by
slugging and the boys went in for
the spectacular And if you have
enough guys trying TO be spectacu-
lar-that is trying to make the
longest carries and hitting every
shot right for the flag-two or three
or four of them are bound to make
it come off, and get sensational
scores.
"Soon all the golfers knew they
had TO do this or run the risk of
having the gamblers pull down
the money and the titles. So they

Browns
Loom os

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY

SAN ANTONIO, T eX :,
March Is. (UP) : The st.
Louis Browns are no longer
a Humpty Dumpty ball club.
] They were the most improved team
in the American league last season,
climbing "a games above their 1889
record. If they could improve that
much in l94l, they'd challenge for
the pennant.
But considering their present
pitching plight, the Browns do not
figure to make any gestures at the
pennant this season. The main goal
of Manager Fred Haney is to climb
out of second division and deal a
k.o. blow to old Kid Gloom who has
bullied the Browns since they plung-
ed into the lower regions in 1880.
Coming up from last to sixth place
and increasing their percentage by
156 points was quite a feat for
the Browns last year. They beat
the first division clubs in 40 games,
dealing a crushing blow TO the
Yanks and breaking even in %
games with the second place In
dians.
The Browns pitching ranks are
thick with castoffs and veterans
trying comebacks. Haney was so
successful with Eldon Auker, who
was cut adrift by the Red Sox and
won 16 games for the Browns last
season, that he plucked off four
more veterans last Witner.
Johnny Allen was bought from
the Indians. George Caster from
the Athletics and Fritz Ostermueller
and Denny Galehouse from the
Red SoX. Other veteran cast offs
already with the Browns include
Vernon Kennedy and Roxie Lawson.
If five of these veterans could
duplicate their best pitching years
in the majors, the Browns would
be five alarm fire.
Other pitching possibilities are
Emil Bildilli. the tricky little left
handler; Bob Harris. who won II
games last season; John Niggeling,
a very tough hombre when his but
terfly ball is under control; Bill
Trotter, John Whitehead and Jack
Kramer, all trying to find their
groove.
The Browns infield is set with
George McQu mn at first, Don Heff-
ner at second, Johnny Berardino at
short and Harland Cliff at third.
Johnny Lucadello. just turned q
and one of the years finest look
ing rockies, and Alan Strange will
do utility infield chorse. Rip Rad
cliff, who was the American leagues
fourth leading hitter with an aver
age OF .342 will play left, and Wal
ter Judnich, a rookie star of last
center. Roy Cullenbine. Myr-
Il Hoag, Chet Laabs and Roberto
Estalella, who hit .341 for Min
neapolis, are competing for the
berth.
Bob Swift, who caught 100 games
for the Browns as a rookie, will
again be the No. backstop. ONLY
other receiver is Joe Grace. the
converted outfielder who came to
camp underweight.

Sport Notes


Remember the days when they
turned two amateur boxers lose If
four round bouts out at the ole
city limits arena?. And fight
crowds went away satisfied they
had received their moneys worth
because every battle was a glove
Singing event between a couple of
lads who asked no quarter. and

forever because Imperial Valleys
fight promoters who have put on
three good professional shows at
CaleXico are toying with the idea
Of sponsoring amateur fights in e.

There is. according to the same
promoters, a good crop of amateur
fighters in the valley, and amateur
singers from San Diego are avail
able to furnish opposition. E..
Speaking of fighters, the boys
who follow the fight game here in
