Two OF the top men in the Pro-
member at Prince Georges
yesterday-Walter Romans of
Baltimore Country Club and
and Charley Bassler of Rolling
Road-are regulars in the win
ner's circle. Thus today's ac-
coladeS go to a pair of hard
workers who infrequently make
the prize list, Carl Rasnic of the
Berwyn Golf Range, and Frank
Cronin, the University of Mary
land golf coach.
Rasnic. like Romans and BaS-
sler, played the immaculate lay
out in 10 strokes yesterday. his
low round of the season, and
Cronin. playing in his first pro
tournament in four years, had a
par ~. Cronin teaches at Ras-
MICS range. and lends a helping
hand to Rasnic.
Carl is robust fellow. one of
the sections big hitters. He
plays in most of the Monday
events although he averages ID
hours on the range job both
Saturday and Sunday.
Lack of Experience Hurts
His scoring average for the
past five years has come down
each year. In the big moment
last season he shot a So at Elk
ridge despite two balls out of
bounds, the equivalent of four
penalty strokes.
Cronin said Rasnic could be
and will be-one of the outStand-
ing playing pros in this section.
Carl loses stroke here and
there. several in some of his
rounds. because of a lack of
tournament experience.
Cronin deserves a hand be-
cause of his 70 in his first COM
petitive outing since he regained
playing privileges in the Monday
events. He teaches the intra-
mural boxers at Maryland,
coaches the golf team. is the
overseer of the new golf course,
and has time to play an occas-
ional round.
Romans Big Winner
Romans. the Baltimore Match
Play Open champion, but usually
a slow starter in the spring, was
the big winner yesterday.
The Baltimore pro and Maury
Fitzgerald. a guest contestant,
won the best-ball event with
g., including a great back nine
of 20. In that back nine Romans
had two brides. Fitzgerald three
natural brides. and the latter
used two of his four allotted
handicap strokes for net brides.
Fitzgerald was three under par
himself coming to the 18th but
took five there for a 42-34-76.
Bassler had 16 pars and brides

Cronin and Harold Oatman of
Norfolk had par TBS.
The Prince Georges members
produced a pair Of par shooters
who tore up the back nine for

sinking a chip shot for an eagle
on the 10th. and Eddie Bean was

on the 18th, where he had woods
trouble.
Course Draws Praise
Rasnic and Bean paired for a
best ball of 81 that was second,
and Oatman and Buzzer Ryan
were next with IS after turning
in 81. Both the Romans-Fitz-
gerald and RaSnic-Bean teams
would have been in the mid-60S

TENNIS TALK
BY JACK HARlNG

/ This is a year of anniversaries
for Jack Boucher. veteran tennis
pro at Kenwood Country Club.
1t marks his 30th year as a pro-
fessional in the sport. He also is
starting his 18th year in the
Kenwood job.
Jack has been instrumental
in helping tennis grow up at the
nearby Maryland club. When he
arrived there in 1912. Kenwood
had four courtS-two at the
present site and two across
River road where the old golf
course then was located.
/ This year, as Kenwood expects
its biggest season ever. the club
has II clay courts and two hard
surface. Jack also has one of
the finest tennis shops of any
area club. Due to the expand
ing program. the club this year
hired Claude Kilday to serve as
associate pro. a
! Boucher's influence in the
game accounts for the program
scheduled this week end at Ken
wood. Jack was able to secure
Doris Hart for her only sponsored
appearance this year in the
Washington area. Miss Hart will
be at Kenwood Saturday and
Sunday for a series of clinics
and exhibitions.
/ Boucher hasn't always been so
successful in a tennis career that
began in France and England,
then continued III the British
West Indies. Florida, Connec-
lticut and finally the Washington
area.
I Born in Gainesville, Ga, to a
family hailing from England,
Jack didn't play much tennis be-
fore going to Canada in 1914 to
enlist In the Royal Flying Corps
(now the RAF).
Jack got to play some tennis
while serving as a pilot during
World War I. And the game got
in his blood. He decided to stay
in France after the war to follow
the tournament trail.
Those were lean years." Jack
recalls now. Il never had enough
money and I didn't even have the
social connections to get into
the real big tournaments"
One of his 'jobs" during that
phase Of his amaeur career was
serving as workout boy for the
great French stars of that era,
Jean Borotra, Henri Cochet and
Rene Lacoste.
After drifting to England in
the mid-1920s. Boucher decided
to turn pro in 1926 when he was
able to land a tennis job at the
Montague Beach Hotel in Mas
sau, Bahamas. He stayed there
IA winters and built up quite a
reputation as a player by win
ming a number of tournaments.
Since then he has been fol-
lowing the sun. Besides his IS
seasons at Kenwood, JACK spent
five summers as Madison Beach
Club pro in Connecticut, four
seasons as coach at Florida
Southern College, five winters
at Delray Beach Fla.) Tennis
Club and the last four winters

THE BASEBALL
BEA T
By BURTON HAWKINS

BALTIMORE, May Celery
Snyder never aims for the fences,
but in Boston Sunday with the
Senators trailing by two runs,
two out and two on in the ninth
inning of the second game. the
slender. slap-hitting shortstop
deliberately went for a homer. !.
He got 1.-THE first ball he ever
crashed out of a major league
park.
Il should have been shooting
for the fence all day." Snyder
said There was a strong wind
blowing out and even a hitter
like me had chance of getting
a homer. All / had to do was get
the ball up in the air and let the
wind do the rest"
In one full season and parts of
two others with the Senators
previously. Snyder batted in only
26 runs. He has thumped
across IA this season. Louis
vile, the Senator's representative
in Triple-A ranks, attracted only
$4,000 fans in its first IL games
despite hanging in the first divi-
sion.
Whitley Herzog's low batting
average at the moment doesn't
indicate it, but the youngster may
develop to be solid sort of per-
former. His luck has been
amazingly bad, what with blast
ing several liners directly at
f1elders. He's a rookie, but
umpires don't awe him. He

 There are such stars featured as Fred Clark, Lynn Bari and Maxie RoSenbloom, and also old timers Mack Sennett, Heinie Conklin, Hank Mann and Roscoe Ates to bring authenticity to this picture of early Hollywood.

Valley of the Sun," playing to- day only at the Orpheum Theatre, is frontier days epic and tells the story of a resourceful young Army scout who averts an Indian uprising during the dangerous days of the old Southwest. James Craig is the scout and in his ad- ventures finds romance with Lu. cille Ball.
 The story from the pen of Clar ence Buddington Kelland, is said to offer thrills and excitement, when the scout is forced to fight the conniving activities of an h. dian agent as we'll as the warlike superStitions of the redman. More than thousand Indians from the pueblos near Taos, New Mexico, where the picture was filmed, add thrills and realism to the battle scenes.
 Sunday and Monday
 The Robe, pronounced by cri- t1cs as a triumphant, historic and epochal attraction comes to the local screen for two days, starting Sunday. It is the first picture to be shown from the studios of Twenti- eth Century-Fox, and the first made by the company in the new medium of CinemaScope, with it's widened dimensions.
 The picture is said to follow faithfully the unforgettable story by author Lloyd c. Douglas. It de- picts in Technicolor, the Roman splendor of an early age, and the Biblical story of that era. There is the Roman slave market where Marcellus first acquires Demetrius; the glittering palace of the Emper- or at Rome and cliffside villa at Capri; the hill of Calvary where the Crucifixion takes place; The Catacombs of Rome; the city of Jerusalem as it appeared that first Palm Sunday and aboard the Ro- man galley ship that symbolizes the movement of the story from Rome to its most far-flung and restless province in its empire
 The cast for this $5,0oO, ,oOo pro- duction was handpicked. Besides the thousands in the supporting cast, historic characters such as MarcelluS Gallio, Diana, Demetri- us, Peter, Caligula, Justus, Pilate and many others are portrayed by Richard Burton Jean Simmons, Victor Mature, Michael Rennie.
