SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 6.-Two
prospective outstanding golf duels
in this country this year will bring
together Sam Snead and Byron Mel
son in the East and Mrs. George
(Babe Didrikson) zaharias and
Betty Jameson in the West.
The matches will be played for
war relief charities. The Snead-

two outstanding professional play
ers in New York in the spring or
early summer.
Full details have not been worked
out. They may meet over So holes
or u, possibly the second half to
be played on the West Coast.
Miss Jameson and Mrs. Zaharias
are without question the two finest
golf amateurs of their sex in the
United States, Miss Jameson being
two times national champion and
Mrs. Zaharias the uncrowned
champion in many an experts
book.
Recently Miss Jameson, or friends
acting in her behalf, challenged
Mrs. Zaharias to a home and home
golf test, one in the formers home
town of San Antonio and the other
in the Zaharias bailiwick, Los An
geles. Mrs. Zaharias jumped at the
chance to meet her outstanding
rival, but a stalemate has devel-
'oped.
The United States Golf Associa-
ton must approve the expenses of
the two prospective opponents.
