Harvie Ward Is Man To Beat
In US. Amateur Golf Meet

: DETROIT " - Harvie Ward,
fresh from = triumph in the Cana
dian Amateur golf championship,
figures that no player who isn't
adept at every phase Of the game
offgOM can win the 1854 us. ANA
teur championship, opening today
ct the plush Country Club Of De-
troll.
Ward, automatically advancing
into, the role Of a favorite on the
strength Of Saturdays victory over
Bill Campbell in the Canadian
final, got his first look ct the fat
e,S7S yard course in suburban
Crosse Pointe Farms yesterday.
His verdict, after shooting an
approximate par 70, was: 81 never
saw . course that is such a test
Of every phase Of the game. It calls
for good drives, good long irons
and good putting"
Nevertheless, the experts rated
the personable, bright-eyed San
Francisco automobile salesman as
one Of the players 20 beat as the
field Of 100 sets out on today's u
first-round matches in the all
mateh-play tournament. And most
Of his rivals reflected Wards Opin-
ion that It's 4 wide open tourna-
ment that only q top-fight golfer
can win.
Former champion Charlie COe,
who expects an experience d
name" player to come through in
Saturdays 36-hole final, voiced the
opinion that whoever wins viii be
an outstanding golfer
Slugging Billy Joe Patton, ANA
teur sensation Of the 1854 Masters
and Open championships, put in
the word that the course, playing
''lOng" because of recent rains,
would require greater distance of
the tees than Ward can get.
Since Gene LittIer, last years
winner, now is q successful pro-
fessional, there's no one player who
can be listed as top favorite.
Wards Canadian triumph moved
him toward the top. He's 4 player
who has rated top consideration for
several years, but while he has
won the British Amateur title, he
never has reached the top in his
own country.
Patton, off his feats this season,
rated the other popular choice.
Both he and Ward ran into rugged
opposition in today's first round.
Patton's first opponent from
Amarillo, Tex, who won the USGA
and Hearst newspaper junior tour
naments last year and who was
low scorer in the sectional quail
flying rounds for this tournament.
Ward met Hord Hardin, a steady,
experienced player from St.Louis.

Native Dancer
ToBe Retired

SARATOGA SPRINGS, n. Y. n
Native Dancer, the great grey
champion known As ''the peoples
horse" although owned by q mill
liOnairs, is going home 70 Mary
land his racing days ended.
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt reluct-
antly decided yesterday to retire
the powerful l-year-Old colt " the
stud after the recurrence of an. in
jury to his right fOrefDot.
The idol Of millions, at the tracks
and over the televisiOn lanes, was
to have started in the mile and
three quarters Saratoga Cup FRI
day. Then q decision was to be
made concerning . trip 10 Paris
for I race at Longchamps Oct. ,.
Vanderbilt made his decision sud-
denly after conferring with Trainer
Bill Winfrey. The Dancer, winner
Of n Of his q races, worked mile
and three hlrlongs In 1:14 IS, Sun
day morning.
Said Vanderbilt:
-. Native Dancer showed Z n
currence Of his former injury.
There appears to be no other choice
but to retire him from racing. He
viii not race again and viii enter
the stud at the Sycamore Farm In
Maryland next spring."
It was only one week ago today
that the Dancer ran his last race,
passing the 2O-out-Of-2l record Of
the great Man O'War who was re-
tired after his 3-year-old season in
1920.
The Dancer, beaten only once in
his spectacular career when Dark
Star won by 1 head in the 19ss
Kentucky Derby, was indicated as.
q 2-year-ola In 1852. He won nine
races.
Like Man O'War's single defeat
in the 1919 Sanford Stakes, the
Dancers derby setback win be dis
cussed as long as there is racing.
The colt was the 7-1O favorite. He
was rOughed up on the first turn
and Just missed with his eharae-
teristic stretch rush.

By Cory MiIIholIond Parker
as told to Betty Miles

You can't afford to think of
landscaping as something to
get around to one Of these
days, along with finishing the
attic and putting recreation
room in the basement.
Landscaping affects both
the design and INABILITY of
the house. It really is a kind
of magic.
Trees can make the lot
seem larger, and the house set
farther back from the street,
than it really is. A wall or
fence around a property in
creases its appearance of size.
It's all a matter of perspec-
tive.
To these optical illusions
you can add the magic of
doubled living space which
well-planned terraces and
other outdoor areas give, and

president Of the sponsoring
Home Builders Association and
Festival director, made the an
nouncement. The three key men
form the Representative Home
Committee for the 1854 Festival,
charged primarily with supply
ing a list of the representative
homes of the type and size. and
in the price ranges now being
constructed in the five main
Metropolitan Areas of Washing
ton by members of the associa-
ton. These include all the prin-
cipal home builders.
Widespread interest has been
evinced in the forthcoming fes-
tival. Initial announcement last
week opened a hood-gate of in
quiries, resulting already in the
submission of numerous houses
for possible selection. Without
obligation to the Home Builders
Association or individual build
ers, The Star will provide
weekly information on the loca-
ton and characteristics Of the
homes as a public service.
The newly named Representa-
tive Homes Committee consists
of the following: Thomas l..
Phillips, president of the Wash
ington Real Estate Board; Leon
ard Haeger, technical director
National Association of Home
Builders and member also of the
American Institute of Architects,
and Clyde j. Verkerke. president
of the Home Builders Associa-
ton Of Metropolitan Washing
ton.
The standing of these men in
the Washington community. their
recognized abilities and leader
ship in their respective fields. as
sure public confidence in the i'm
partially and thoroughness Of
the cOmmlCGee.
Mr.. Phillips, a graduate of
Georgetown University Law
School and real estate broker
here for over 80 years, main
tains his Office at 1920 Connecti-
cut avenue NV. He was elected
president of the Real Estate
Board at its annual meeting last
September. A specialist in resi-
dental construction for years,
his interest in the festival OBJ
servance comes naturally, as he
is one of the founders OF the
Home Builders Association. Mr..
Phillips concern in salesman
ship practices, with a view to
serving the interests and needs
of the homeowner and buyer,
has found an additional outlet
in his lectures on real estate
subjects at American University
for some years.
MIR. Haeger, a graduate In
architectural engineering at
Washington University in St
Louis. joined the National Home
Builders Association in 1851. Al
present he is director of NAHB's

live garden.
Points to Consider.
/ think there are three very
important things for the pros
pective home owner to con-
slider from a land planning
point Of view:
First, the site. A pleasant
site with trees obviously gives
you a head start. as does one
with possibilities for outdoor
living. Some sites are almost
impossible to beautify and
utilize.
Second, there are the per-
rnanent land planning fea-
lures. including grading and
drainage, the walks leading to
the front and back door, the
approach to the garage, and
the lawn. Once these are put
in, they are there to stay.
Grading actually provides
the platform on which the
house stands, both physically
and esthetically. AS to drain
age, make sure the water runs
away from the building and
the outdoor living areas.
After these things have been
taken care of, the third step
is trees.
Before I would buy any other
plants, ! would invest in trees,
both large, and small.
Trees really work for you in
any number of ways. They
give you the best value for your
money Of any part of land
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-07-24

scaping. They give you shade,
necessary in our hot climate.
, They provide a setting for the
house. They enhance its
beauty. for sun shining through
the leaves makes q handsome
pattern Of light and shadow
on the house.
Trees increase the value Of
your property more than any
thing else you can do in land
planning. The minute you
plant q tree. your investment
begins to increase in value.
# you put of planting for
four or five years. those years
when the trees would be grow
ing are lost. Trees serve as cur
tains and shades. Naturally,
they will not replace draperies.
But trees can do q large part Of
the screening and shading on
the south and west exposures.
How Much to Spend.
Depending on the original
condition of the lot. the size
of the lawn, and how much
elaboration you want, I think
from 5 to Is per cent Of the
cost Of the house should be
planned on for landscaping
at the time the house is built
or purchased.
After the basic things dis
cussed above have been set
tied, add your other plants.
But no matter what you plant,
give it a lot of good soil.
