Betty Zimmermun
By Lewis r. Atchison

You lugs worrying about
whether the Mats can climb up
into the first division of the
American League, whether Joe
Baksi will try to lift Joe Louis
heavyweight crown, and such
trifies had better snap out of it
and pay more attention to junior
girls tennis here in the District.
Mercy sakes, it's just about ready
to collapse from malnutrition.
Betty Zimmerman was telling
us about it between rounds at
the City OF Washington net
tournament and the picture she
painted really was quite depress-
ing. Imagine the situation i've
years from now when the present
supply of lady tennis players has
reached the vanishing point and
the sports editor wants a picture
of pretty girl to dress up a
tennis story. You can see the
photographer coming back with
the unshaven mug of Joe Blow,
explaining he didn't see any
damsels lurking around the court.
It'll be dark day for the sports
department.
But Betty isn't joking about
this indifference toward junior
girls. Baltimore, for example. has
challenged Washington to a
match next month and Miss
Zimmerman doesn't know where
in the world, or where in WASH
ington she can find six players
to make up a team. Ellen Oberti,

AZ Colleges Entered
In 71st IC4A Meet;
N. Y. j. Is Favorite
By the Assoeioted Press

PHILADELPHIA, May 28.-Seven
hundred athletes from AZ colleges
will compete in the biggest IC4A
competition in history at Franklin
Field this week end, with New York
University the choice to break Navy's
three-year hold on the outdoor
championships.
The Violet track squad, which
scored regularly in indoor competi-
ton during the winter, counts
heavily on Reggie Pearman, the
fleet star who almost single-handed-
ly smashed Illinois hopes Of setting
a new Penn relay mark last month.
Pearman is entered in the 440
and $50 and will anchor N. Y. US
strong mile relay team. The Violets
are strong also in the shotput and
discus with Bernard Mayer and the
pole vault with Warren Halliburton
Since Illinois is not entered in the
IC4A's list competition, N. Y. U.
likely will find it's toughest opponents
in Harvard, winner of the nonagonal
meet; Michigan State and Penn
State.
Michigan State, conqueror of
Notre Dame for the Central Col
legiate Conference indoor track and
field championships, based its hopes
on miller Jack Dianetti, sprinter and
broad jumper Fred johnson and
sprinter Bob Schepers. All were
impressive in the Drake relays.

PGA 10 Enforce Ban
On Sharpened Clubs
AT Capital Open
By MerreII WhittIesey

The National PGA is getting
tough about this business of the
golf professionals becoming SO deft
with a file that the faces on their
short iron clubs are razor sharp.
Starting with the $4,000 National
Capital Open here next week at
Prince Georges, all entrants must
have either untampered or brand
new sticks.
The PGA originally intended to
invoke the ban on sharpened sticks
beginning with the Houston tour
nament several weeks ago, but at
that time so many pros were found
with scored short irons that they
were ordered to reduce the sharp
edges at that time and get new
clubs, made after 1941, before the
start Of the Capital Open.
Last week big sign greeted the
players on the first tee at Phila-
delphia, warning them to have legal
clubs in Washington or face dis
qualification here and be barred
from all future tournaments.
Clubs Far Out Of Bounds.
According to George Schneiter
chairman Of the PGA Tournament
Committee, many of the clubs were
far out of bounds that the game no
longer was a matter of skill. 1t is
no exaggeration to report that some
clubs were filed so severely in order
to put backspin on the ball that q
player was in danger of cutting his
hand If he rubbed his mitt across
the club from top to bottom.
The action was taken by the
Rules Committee of the PGA which
was formed at the Masters tourna-
ment. The touring pros were in
agreement that the action was
necessary, according to Schneiter
Just who will inspect the clubs on
the first tee at Prince Georges
starting a week from tomorrow has
not been decided.
The PGA is cracking down one
week before the National Open
championship in st. Louis, and that
will save the USGA a lot of trouble.
Last year in Cleveland the USGA
asked the contestants to submit
voluntarily to an inspection of their
clubs and only q few clubs were
turned down.
Visiting Pros Arrive.
The first two entrants in Wash
ington's Initial 10 grand golf show
put in an appearance at Prince
Georges yesterday - the Carolina
threats, Skip Alexander and un-
predictable Clayton Heafner. They
come here from Philadelphia and
predicted another dozen or SO name
players would stroll in during the
next two or three days.
Heafner, who won the Jacksonville
Open in q playof over Lew Wor-
sham, confined his afternoons ac-
tivities to the practice tee and said
he planned to stay here until the
tournament began.
Alexander, the eX-Duke golf team
captain and one of the rising young
sters on the tour, started with sc
in last weeks Inquirer tournament,
but scared to 81 the next day and
finally finished out of the money.
He will return to his home in
Lexington and be back next week for
the tournament. Alexander played
alone, and had some nice things to
say about the condition of the golf
course.
