Along The
Sports Trail

NEW YORK, May Fl (INS)-
It's something more than mere SUI
perstition that has made many
famous athletes swear by a fav-
orite jersey number or a favorlte
bat or helmet or pair of shoes. In
the case of Bobby oJnes, who COM
piled the greatest golf record OF all
time, his talisman was a worn
goose-necked putter called Calam-
ity jaime.
Bobby won the National Open
four times and the National Anna,
teur five times. He won the British
Open on three occasions and the
British Amateur once. In 1880, he
scored the only "Grand Slam" in
history taking all four titles the
same year. Then ones retired. But
that great record might never have
come about but for Calamity aJne.
Back in 1923, Jones already was
a veteran campaigner. He played
in his first U. S. Amateur at the
age of IA in 1916. Jones thereafter
often came close but couldn't quite
win a championship. He had made
up his mind that, unless he wor
the 1923 National Open, he woult
give up competitive golf.
Just before the Open, a mai
named Joe Merkle, assistant pro a
Glen Cove, Long Island, was walk
ing past a cemetery one day an
noticed a broken and discarde'
putter. Merkle recalls:
"Its shaft was broken at tn
spot where the hickory enters tn
club face. Ny fondness for an
kind of golf clup prompted me t
pick it up"
While Merkle was in the pr

NEW YORK LR-Getting to work
and home again becomes a bigger
headache increasingly for most
people. The traffic showdown hits
both classes. those who drive their
own cars and the multitude that
relies on mass transportation.
Cities and suburban areas con-
stantly grapple with the problem
in what often looks like a hope
less fight--beeause each trick they
try, In routings or superhighways,
is quickly trumPed by the flood
of new vehicles.
Transit companies have a seIu-
ton: Fewer cars and more buses
in eangested areas, and oriorities
for buses on expressways. Car
drivers, naturally, have the oppo-
site idea: It's the buses that snarl
up traffic and slow down progress,
In many big cities, during the
busy hours of the day. motor traf-
tic moves through the streets at a
slower pace than horse-drawn
streetcars did. Horse-and- buggy
traffic averaged nine miles an
hour in rush periods in the cities,
traffic experts say. Motor traffic
now averages five miles an hour,
and less in some places.
Take one well known street.
42nd street In New York City.
Transit officials say their vehicles
crossed the island from East River
to the Hudson in nine minutes on
the average, before World var III.
Now the best time Is IS minutes,
and at peak rush hours IL takes
20 to "a minutes. On your way TO
work, or home, that loss OF IL to
ID minutes each way can count
up during the week.
