Gasoline Rationing Here
Will Affect Golfers Most
Other Activities
Face Cur+aiImen+;
Football Hit Hard
BY EDGAR HAYES

Sport authorities today awaited
m ore detailed explanation and
information on the nationwide
gasoline rationing before making
final plans for the season.
All are agreed that considerable
curtailment is in the offing, but
all steps possible will be taken
within the new regulations to con-
|tinue the present program.
Golf will be the first sport hit
in this area. Many of the courses
are outside the limits served by
bus and street car. This means
many weekly tournaments like
the women's district and the pro-
amateur may be Cancelled. The
ldoubling-up plan will be failure
if nobody has gasoline.
The Michigan PGA is hoping to
hold its two biggest tournaments.
the Michigan open at Meadow
brook and the PGA at Red Run.
AL Watrous, veteran Detroit pro,
pointed out that golf tournaments
antedated the automobile.
SINGLE GOLFERS HIT
The individual play will be hard
est hit. No longer will the single
golfer be able to sneak out to the
country club several afternoons a
week hoping to pick up a game.
The Detroit street car system may
run buses TO some of the courses
not too far out.
The municipal courses are served
by street car or bus and should
enjoy boom. and friends of De-
troit Golf Club members will be
more affable than ever before.
The Tigers won't be hit by the
ruling. Many thousands of fans
live within walking distance of
Briggs Stadium and there are
excellent transportation from all
directions. The out-of-town busi-
ness which was brisk in other
years, has disappeared already this
spring when the car owners did
much voluntary rationing.
College football will suffer too.
Ann Arbor. East Lansing. South
Bend and dozens of other football
towns are many precious gallons
of gasoline away from the centers
of population. If the same allot-
ment is allowed here as has been
given in the East, you will have
TO start saving Immediately to

There's a French. war refugee
out at the Detroit race track
who is going TO be awfully hard
to catch in stake races here this
season.
Grasshopper III is his name, one
that he's living up 10 these morn
ings in his workouts for the
Inaugural Handicap at the Fair
Grounds Saturday. His speed is no
surprise TO any one because he
holds the world record for mile
and 40 yards. Grasshopper III can
really go.
GrasShopper III was bred in
France. the son Of Banstar. And if
Herr Hitler hadn't got ideas about
the world. Grasshopper III
would probably be running today
on the Autcil or Longchamps
courses in his native France. He
was brought over here by his
American owner. Joseph f. Wide

The Ripper's friends maintained
that their chum couldn't hit unless
he played regularly. Maybe it is
regular work that he needs.
Anyway, the homer made the
Ripper and more than 10000 fans
at the game very, very happy.
Half of the crowd were women

And the homer was a fine birth
