Perkins Climbs Golf Ladder
After Bad Start in America
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.
CHICAGO, June 28.—The rise of
Thomas Phillip Perkins as an
outstanding challenger for 1
major open golf championships ;
Is rather parallel to that of Tommy !
Armour and Bobby Cruickshank. Prior '
to their emigration to the United States
and subsequent entrance into the pro- !
iesslonal ranks, Armour and Cruick- j
shank were among the amateur stars
of Scotland—a rather Indifferent term
at the best.
Under American environment and as
professionals. Armour and Cruickshank
quickly advanced among the leading
players of the world. Armour has held
both the United States and British open
championships and practically every
title of importance in America for
which a professional is eligible. Cruick
shank tied for the 1923 open; tied for
second place at Fresh Meadows last
week and has been a winner in many
sectional events.
y
PERKINS is undergoing the same
metamorphosis. His first appear- I
ance in the United States was at
the Chicago Golf Club in 1928. where,
as British amateur champion, he was
pitted against Bob Jones In the Walker
Cup matches Jones beat the young
Englishman, 13 and 12. and Phil won
only one hole on the first nine, and
that only when Sobbv drove into the
water. À few weeks later Perkins met
Jones In the finals of the national ama
teur at Brae Burn and once more was
annihilated. Opinion of his game at
the best was very poor.
Upon his emigration to the United
States, Perkins' golf began to improve.
Perhaps it was the opportunity for
more and keener competition than was
afforded in England, or perhaps the
more democratic spirit of the American
fairways that spurred his play, but soon
after his taking residence In New York
Phil was found winning sectional ama
teur events and playing quite well.
His first bold challenge for open hon
ors was made a year ago at Inverness,
when he scored a 70—71 on the final
36 holes of the national championship
to lead the amateurs in the field and
top all of the British professionals in
the competition. His 70—71 was the
fastest piece of scoring on the final
rounds of the championship and it was
predicted then that he was fast advanc
ing on the title.
PERKINS played at Fresh Meadow as
a business man golfer, having re
signed his amateur status only a
few weeks ago. With a game that is
built on steadiness and a sound pat
tern, he played some of the best golf ;
fired over the twisting fairways and
biting bunkers of the Meadows. That
he did not win or tie for the champion
ship is no fault of Perkins. His 288 :
was bettered only by Sarazen and
equalled only by Cruickshank.
It is safe to predict that the tall,
bespectacled Perkins with his thinning
red hair and long stride will be pound
ing at the door of the championship
again next year. His is a game that
*111 improve rather than rétrogradé,
and if he is successful in finding em
ployment that will solve some of his
problems. Perkins should become one
of our best—although never one of our
most colorful—golfers.
LEAGUE GAME ENDS. 13-12.
Treasury came fajt in the late innings
but was not quite able to overcome an
parly lead gained by Public Buildings
and Public Parks nine as the litter
squeezed out a 13-12 win in the Col
sred Departmental Base Ball League.

OVERSWINGING with the mashie
is a common fault. On cer
tain shots, a crack player will
use a full swing with this club, but
the general rule is to keep it well
under control, and so a three-quarter
swing is employed. The problem is,
how shall that three-quarter swing
b? obtained.
Francis Ouimet in his early days
regularly overswung with his mashie.
When he went to England he had
the opportunity of seeing Harold H.
Hilton, greatest of English amateurs,
play, and noted his remarkable con

him so much trouble. He concluded
that Hilton's right thumb was re
sponsible, and inquiry proved this to
be the case. The Britisher put the
thumb on the shaft of his mashie.
In that position it blocked more
than a three-quarter swing.
Ouimet imitated Hilton and soon
had his mashie under fine control.

championships and Olympic semi-finals
were to get under way today either lu
the Madison Square Garden outdoor
bowl in Long Island City or in the Gar
den's indoor sports palace on Eighth

The championships, due to open last

brrause of a he3vy rainstorm. Tourna
ment officials immediately acted to
prevent further dflay. They announced
that in the event of adverse weather
conditions todsy they would hold the

to the bowl when the weather per
mitted.
STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE
BY WALTER R. McCALLUM
NE of the unusual features of
the recent open golf cham
pionship was the absence of
any new golfers coming up to
shoot spectacular rounds and win the
limelight for a day or two. Most
championships have their early "blocm
ers," who lead for a round or two and
then fade away under pressure, but the
Fresh Meadow title chase was "regu
lar" In every sense Of the word.
Of course. Olin Dutra is not widely
known In the East, but to men who
follow the tournament circuit Dutra Is
known as a man who can win any golf
tournament he enters. His is not a
new face among the topliners, and
when he led the tournament for the
first round not a great many of the
real golf fans were surprised.
If there was one dark horse In the
outfit it was Phil Perkins, the former
British amateur title holder. Perkins,
so the pros say. has as much golf as
any man. and the pros concede that
he can step along as fast as any of
them. Just as Tommy Armour changed
from a good amateur Into a first-class
pro in a few months, so Perkins has
changed from a good amateur to a
man who can move along at the head
of the procession within two weeks of
the time he turned professional. He
put on a truly great effort, good enough
to win had not Sarazen broken all rec
ords in his dash to the wire.
But outside of Perkins and Dutra,
who cannot be called flashes or sensa
tions, there were no new faces in the
winning line at Fresh Meadow. It was
an unusual championship In many
ways. Probably never again will there
be another like it, and we doubt if any
golf gallery in the future will see scor
ing such as Sarazen did over the last 27
holes of the championship.
JOHN H. COWLES won the weekly
tourney for senior golfers of the
Chevy Chase Club last week, regis
tering a net 81. Rear Admiral C. B.
McVay won second place with a net 83,
and Gen. R. U. Patterson won third
place with net 84. As a reward for
their efforts the handicaps of these

FISHING
By Ed Decker· I
Catching; Bull Frogs.
WHEN on a camping trip don't
deny yourself that greatest of
all outdoor delicacies — "Irog
legs."
Most every lake with a weedy
shore or quiet backwater or bay will
have its share of bull frogs.
Just about dusk, you will hear
them bellowing their booming chal
lenges across the lake.
At night it is an easy matter to
"shine" them with a flashlight. The
glare of the light seems to daze them
and you can approach close enough
to club or spear them with ease.
During the day a lot of sport
may be had by simply tying a piece
of red flannel rag to your hook.
Dangle this in front of the bull
frog's eyes and watch the sport.
He'll lunge for it, mouth agape and
if he misses come right back for
more.
Not only are his antics comical
to watch, but his legs are "darn
good eatin'" after he's caught.

THE SPORTLIGHT
BY GRANTLAND RICE
The Miracle.
WHEN Gene Sarazen came off
the eighth green at the
Fresh Meadow Country
Club on the last day of the
battle for the United States open
championship he looked to be a doom
ed contender.
Gene needed a 3 for a 39 and he was
strokes away from the lead. He was in
s fine spot to buckle up and slide out
of the picture—and he knew it. Turn
ing to Robert Cutting, the U. S. G. A.
official in charge of the match, he said.
"I'm going to rap one in for a 2 at
this ninth hole and then I'm going to
shoot a 32 on that last nine."
That is exactly whit happened.
Sarazen is a great believer in hunches.
When his putt for a 2 curried out the
first part of his threat, there was noth
ing that could stop him.
"I knew then." he told me later,
"that I had a chance."
That first 32 was thi begining of
the most remarkable finish that golf
ever has seen. Sarazen for years has
stood out as one of the greatest stretch
runners of the game, but no one be
lieved that any human could ever
careen at such a headlong, dizzy pace
icr 27 holes—32—32—34.
Facing disaster and defeat as he left
f"-2 eighth green in the forenoon, his
-??t of using up only 100 strokes for
the next 28 holes—12 under even 4s—
wa< an extraordinary pn;formance. the
greatest single achievement any cham
pionship has ever known.
The Next Bairier.
BUT this is only pari of the story.
Phil Perkins, leading the field by
a stroke, posted a 70. Wee Bobby
Crulckshank tied this up. Both had
played golf worthy of any golfing crown.
They left Sarazen a tirget to shoot
at as easy to hit as a thin jack-rabbit
200 yards away.
Gene had caught the field in one
great counter charge with that first 32.
No one could expect him to hold this
pace. One might as well ask an Olym
pic sprinter to open up a 9.5 pace and
hold It for a mile. It couldn't be done.
It beyond all reason
But With the Perkins-Cruickshank
target before him. knowing what he had
to do. working his way through a wild,
excited, stampeding crowd, Sarazen's
flawless stroking continued with every
club in the bag.
"I was less tired that last round
than I was the first two days," he
told ην. "I wanted to hit every drive
as far as I could—to use my favorite
club—No. 7—and this plan worked out
although I had to pass the 300-yard
mark on many holes before I could
reach in the bag for the club that could
get me near the pin."
A No. 7 is two clubs weaker than a
mashie, so far as range goes. Sarazer
hit at least nine drives 300 yards oi
longer in that last assault on par anc
the field. The remarkable feature was
that he could unleash such power anc
still keep the ball straight down the
course without any sign of wavering.
Cool to the Finish.
STANDING on the seventeenth tee oi
the last round with a 4-4 left foi
a 66 and a flock of records. Sarazer
eave one of the greatest exhibitions of
eoolnes and nerve control I ever have
Zbii aeveateenUi bole ie full of trouble
off the narrow fairway to either side,
ι The crowd had milled far out cn the
course, leaving only a green ribbon of
turf to shoot at on the dangerous side.
Officials were trying desperately to get
J the gallery back.
Sarazen Teed Up His Ball.
"XTEVER MIND." he said to the
1\ marshal In charge, "don't bother
about It. I'll hit one over them."
And his tee shot traveled like a rifle
bullet slightly to the right, just where
he wanted it, clearing the heads of
those in front by 8 or 10 feet—and the
last human fringe was over 200 yards
! away.
j All through this last march there
i was nothing cocky or grim in his man
j ner. He looked cool, unworried and
' completely at ease, with an unbroken
grip upon his concentration—and his
determination to win. He knew the
brilliant golf Cruickshank and Perkins
had played.
Cruickshank's 69—68 on the final day
will always remain a golfing classic.
Only a great golfer and a stout heart
could have turned in such a job. Per
kins' final 70 was another masterpiece—
a great performance. But they were
masterpieces in the path of the hurrl
| cane, waiting to be wrecked.
The Κ pen Edge.
ι TTTHEN Sarazen fired that score of
11\ 70—6&—70 over the English turf
* of Sandwich he accomplished at
! least a near miracle.
I A razor edge can't last too long. Just
I how he ever added a 32—34 to his first
I 32 at Fresh Meadow is beyond under
standing. And at the finish it looked
as if he could keep on playing or beat
ing par into etermnity.
Gene had to hole a 5 or 6 foot putt
on the last green to get his 66. The
crcd was milling ell around. His ball
looked to be stymied by more than one
pair of feet. But he was still serene
ί and cool as he stepped up and tapped
the putt into the waiting cup.
His complete grip upon his concen
trative power through the last 28 holes
was unbelievable. He was facing what
locked to be a hopeless pursuit, but
neither wood nor iron ever lost the
i perfect groove or the perfect timing
! needed to keep par a captive to his
i skill. Figuring the last nine in the
I forenoon and the first nine in the after
noon, he had played cne of the hardest
courses to be found in just 64 strokes
at the crucial point of the champion
ship. Nothing like that ever happened
before in a game that goes back 500
years.
And this score came to him without
any appearance of a struggle. He was
like a great artist at work upon a
1 green canvas 6,800 yards in length, with
ι a stroke that held both power and light
ness, length and delicacy where each
was needed.
Records have a brief day. But those
last 28 holes in 100 strokes have set up
! one mark that may never be reached
j again—certainly not in this generation—
when you consider all the conditions
involved in a desperate charge down the
stretch.
To be winner of both the British and
the United States Opens in one month is
no light achievement. But to win them
both as Sarazen did leaves Oene the out
standing figure In sport—take any game
you care to name. No crown ever found
a more deserved resting place.
