Tournament Circuit
Makes Difference,
Points Out Pro
Pays Tribute to Jones,
Without Opportunity
To Erase Pressure
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Witty Cox. the only golf pro
around Washington who played the
big time tournament circuit over
any considerable stretch OF years,
has no illusions about that old
chestnut question as to whether
the present crop Of pros could lick
Bobby Jones and the men Of his
era.
"It would be a cinch for the top
men Of today" said Witty. I'm
those days Bobby was the best, with
out any doubt. But in those days
you didn't have the tournament cir
cult and the year-long tourney play
that has developed men like Nelson,
Hogan, Snead, Wood and many
others.
Constant play on the tourna-
ment circuit, with the chips down
on every shot is the best way to
develop really good competitors. In
fact it's the only way. How many
golfers do you know who can play
for q buck Nassau and don't show
anything in tournaments? The
tournament circuit has developed
scoring in golf to the point where
the men Of the Jones era would be
trailing away back against the top
men Of today"
"Jones Was Great"
Cox himself didn't start playing
the big-time circuit until the latter
stages Of Jones career, shortly be-
fore Bob quit competitive golf in
1880. He was great" said Witty.
"fIe was the best of his time, great
chipper and putter. But don't for
get that Bob played in only three
or four tournaments a year, and
that he didn't toss his hat in the
ring 20 or Is times or more a year.
He was the top man, all right,
in that stretch from 1923 to 1890,
but I wonder what would have hap
pened then II they had the tour
nament circuit of today, stretching
from January to January with
hardly a let-up. And II Bob had
played In all of them"
Why has lot of ideas about the
game and the way 1t is played nova
days. 1.-THE swing is pretty well
standardized. You don't see so
much individualistic stuff and the
boys all try to hit the ball the same
way with all clubs. They are more
upright, and they are chipping and
putting better.
Steel Shaft Brings Change.
1.-THE steel shaft, of course, has
had lot to do with Standardization
Of the swing and the way they lit
the ball. But the big advance has
come because the top men are in
competition all the time. There's
nothing like competition to keep a
man bearing down constantly"
We asked Why who, in his opin-
ion, is the best Of the present crop
Of pro linksmen. "I1l take that
Nelson" said Cox. "He has the
STUFF to stay in there in the tight
spots. and when the dough is heavy
he's at his best. Nelson, on a putt
ing streak, is unbeatable" A lot
Of other peaple have the same idea.
OF course there are couple o. other
fellows around who can hit that
ball. Their names are Hogan and
Snead. But give me that Nelson
In the rough spots" said Cox. Hes
got what 1t takes for my dough-"
The record backs up Cox's judge
ment. Nelson has won both the
open and the PGA, In addition to
the luscious Miami open. Hogan
has won neither Of the big ones,
and Snead took long time to win
his PGA title.

Senator Tydings took a hand In
the problem confronting dairymen
In this area ordered to comply with
Baltimore City Health Department
regulations and reported he had
received information from the War
Production Board that such COM
pliance might be impossible.
Last Saturday number OF dairy
farmers stated that the whole dairy
community had been ordered to put
in iron and steel to replace wood
and other substances in their dairy
farms" Senator Tydings said. They
were perplexed to understand why
such an order was now issued when
the Government was making q tre-
mendous drive to obtain and con-
serve iron and steel"
From William H. Tracy, chief Of
the WPB's farm machine and equip
ment division, Senator Tydings said
he had learned that it was "the
clear intention" Of the WPB that
iron and steel are to be used only
for necessary requirements due to
dairy barn fires or other acts Of
God,' plus an expansion program.

Evangelist Shocked

The conscience Of American
Christians was shocked at the
Armistice Day utterances Of one OF
our highest ranking Army men who
declared that we must learn to hate
If we are to win the war;" Evange-
list Dale Crowley charged yesterday
in an address from WWDC Capital
Pulpit.
Mr.. Crowley evidently was refer
ring to q speech OH the National
Radio Forum last Wednesday by 1t.
Gen. Lesley ]. McNair, commanding
general Of the ground forces. Gen.
NcNair declared that "our soldiers
must have the fighting spirit" and
remarked: II you call that hating
our enemies then we must hate
them with every fiber Of our being"
He expressed the opinion that
those Of you who do not hate now
are going to do so later"
IT the, counsel of our esteemed
Army general is to be followed" !"
said the evangelist, then we might
as well lock up our churches and
discontinue all Army chaplaincies.
"Why should we encourage our
boys in the service to develop
murderous hatred and thus invoke
the curse Of Almighty God on our
Nation?"
Evangelist Crowley contended
there Is such q thing as righteous
indignation without hate"
As other stimuli which have
proved to be more. powerful than
hate IS incentives in warfare" he
listed devotion to the cause Of free
dom, the love Of all that we hold
dear, the nag q = symbol Of our
country's glorious liberty, love Of
family, love Of American institu-
tions and zeal for religious free
dom.
''Love is always = moro powerful
