qualify for the U. S. Amateur Golf
tournament this year. But don't
get nostalgia for a re-match with
Johnny Goodman, the man who
gave his famous daddy his only
setback in - amateur champion
ships back in 1929. .
Even if he should qualify, young
Jones won't play for the crown at
Del Monte, Calf, next September
8-13. That's the word from Rob
ert Tyre Jones, Jr., the grand
slam winner, who says his son
will be busy hitting the books as a

Bobby will play in the qualify
today, "but even if he should quar-
ify-which I think extremely un'
likely-he will not >mpete IN the
U. S. Amateur. He can't leave
college to 60 out to California, n
we have an amicable understand
ing about that"

In closed session the group
agreed to call representatives Of the
Veterans Administration and the

ments to testify. About 80 bills on
the issue are before the committee.
Fourteen House members who in
troduced bills to permit cashing the

committee. Comments of subcom-
mittee members showed they needed
little convincing.
Subcommittee Chairman Black
ney, Republican, of Michigan said
veterans now hold $3.50, ,000, 900 in
terminal leave bonds. He said the
amount might go to S2,500, 900, 900.
John Thomas Taylor, legislative
chief of the American Legion, told
the committee veterans would be
| forced to drop education and train
ing programs under the CT Bill of
Rights unless they can get cash
quickly for the f1ve-year non-nego-
table bonds.
Robert Mclaughlin of the Ameri-
can Veterans of World War II de-
clared cash payment now would
save the Government $4,000, 900 in
interest which it would have to pay
/ if the bonds were held the full five
years.
More than 100000 former en-
listed men have applied for the
bonds, according to Army and Navy
reports.
Meanwhile, Senate Armed Serv-
