Britain Mustering Walker Cup Team of Golfers, Not Socialites
- ❖-—---—___________
LINKS SQUAD BLOW
TO CASTE SYSTEM
Irish Bartender, Scottish
Clerk, Welsh Soldier
Get Recognition.
By FRANCIS J. POWERS.
CHICAGO, April 20.—Great Britain
Anally has caught on that the way
to win golf matches is to have fel
lows who can “ 'it the bloomin' ball"—
as Ted Ray would say—in the line-up.
Great Britain never has defeated the
TTmted States in the Walker Cup
matches, but may do so at St. An
drews this summer, because its best
golfers will be shooting against the
Yankees.
This year's British team will be
selected for ability rather than social
standing. The fact that an Irish bar
tender. a Scottish clerk and a Welsh
soldier arc among the candidates who
will try out for the team is evidence
that the caste system which has domi
nated British golf these many years
finally is being broken down.
Rritain's early Walker Cup teams
were seleeted largelv from Oxford and
Cambridge University players. The
Oxonians and Cantabs were nice
soriRl ornaments, but not. murh in
competition when ehueked against our
boys, most of whom tame up through
the cadriv pens and were well seasoned
by bristling battles with professionals.
Our boys may have been a bit shy on
etiquette, but they knew all the
answers with a mashie and putter.
Too Swanky for Perkin*.
Occasionally some artisan golfer,
the likes of Phillip Perkins, would
make a British team for the reason
that a champion could not very well
b° excluded. But when Perkins played
with the British team in 1928 he was
virtually ostracized by his teammates.
That was one reason why Perkins was
so happy to grab off a professional's
job here in America. When Perkins
plaved Bob Jones in the finals of the
1928 national amateur championship,
only two of his teammates remained
fit Brae Bum to see the match, the
others being off for week-end enter- j
tamment.
It long has been said that there ■
were enough artisans playing St. I
Andrews to make a better team than
Great Britain ever sent against the
United States. That may have be°n
an exaggeration, but at any rate the
British now are giving the darks
find crofters a chance to place on the
Walker Cup squad. The trials at St.
Andrews will produce the best amateur
talent in the British Isles, and if
Britain loses it will be because the
United States has the better men.
Team to Talk Our Language.
Our boys probably will appreciate
competing against an Irish bartender,
a Scottish clerk or a Welsh soldier.
Such fellows probably will comp nearer
talking our boys' language than those
w-ho come from Oxford and Cambridge
and are weighted down with their
social standing.
It is doubted that Great Britain will
muster a team rapable of beating
Capt.. Francis Ouimet's squad, but it
Is on the right, track. If membership
on the British team is open to compe
tition. It will draw the better talent
of the United Kingdom, for the arti
sans and such no longer will be so
fearful of being considered interlopers.
The United States team will be
sailing before long, and it's a well
balanced squad Francis Ouimet is
taking over. It's a hunch that Johnny ,
Goodman will win the British amateur
championship this time. After his
victory in the 1937 United States
amateur, Johnny no longer is beset 1
by a match play complex and his
greatest hazard is some United States
player knocking him out of the field.
If Johnny had only to match shots ;
with British players, I'm certain he
would join Sweetser, Jones and Little
as an American-born British champion, i
By PALL J. MILLER.
The great American sport of base
ball has pushed national chess
matches into the news background,
according to reports that emanate
from New York, where Samuel Re
shevsky tenaciously is clinging to the
United States title in the 16-round
fracas now in progress.
Nightly some 300-odd attend the
Titian struggles and V. Colonpa.
Washingtonian, was a ringside spec
tator at saov* the important
matches. Ha says:
"Over the week end I saw I. S. Tu
rover of Washington at the New York
festivity. From time to time the in
ternational expert would click his
camera and another candid shot be
came a part of the Turover collec
tion.
"Norman Whittaker, the chess
player who got in such a mell of a
hess, was present, and I observed that
the legal-minded occasionally stopped
to observe his analyses.
"The crowd was large; the admis
sion was 75 cents per. and the bursar
or attendant at the gate said he did
not care whether any money was
taken in as the accommodations were
paid for amply.
"Now and then I saw Dr. Emanuel
Lasker take out a pocket set and he
would re-enact the drama or. an ad
jacent table, saying, 'This is the move
for a winning combination.’
"I w-as impressed with the number
of Jews present. It seems that chess
Is their game for the topnotchers in
the racket today at the national tour
nament are Jews—Reshevsky, Fine,
Kashdan. Horowitz, etc.
"Equipment? Satisfactory, but not
so good as that used by local club3.
The chessmen were about 4 inches—
junior club size, and the chessboards
had about 2-inch squares. Nothing
was expensive. Time clocks were
either push button or lever type in
mahogany cases.
"Yes, I had a swell time. Seeing
. the big shots in action wras a real
thrill. For the way those boys plan
their traps and go gunning for the
other fellow' is a fight that brings out
all kinds of characteristics.”

Straight Off the Tee
By WALTER R. McCALLUM.
Benny Loving, assistant professional at Congressional, today was notified
that his requested transfer to the Middle Atlantic section of the Professional
Golfers' Association has been O. K.'d and Benny will compete in the .sectional
P. G. A. championship down in Tidewater, Va.. over the coming week end.
Ordinarily this wouldn't mean anything, for assistant professionals generally
aren't in the habit of winning sectional championships. But Benny Loving
happens to be more than another run-of-the-mine assistant. Properly speak
ing he isn’t an assistant. He is a full-fledged pro in his own right, and as such
will take over the pro berth at Sat-*
anac Lake on June 1. But for about
eight months of the year he will serve
as Wiffy Cox\s aide at Congressional.
The big point is that Benny is quite
a golfer. Wiffy pirks him as strictly
the guy to lick in that coming tour
nament, which isn't by way of ballv
hooing his own man, either. Wiffy
has sampled the Loving golf game
and knows how much Benny has on
the ball. And even though Cox rim
self won't play he will be sending
down a pretty capable substitute In
Benny Loving. Ben plans ,o leave
Washington with several other local
pros tomorrow night. They'll use the 1
amateur-pro tourney Friday as a
practice round for the big show Sat- j
urday and Sunday. Bob Barnett 1
won t get away until Friday. I !
know the Chamberlain course pretty |
well, and I won t be so apt to start
steering 'em if I know where the haz
ards are," he says.
Feminine Matches Start.
Army-Navy Country Club's feminine
golf team is off to a fast start in their
quest for the second women's team
title. The teams from the service
rlub took all 9 points from Woodmont
in second team contests at Manor
yesterday. Third team matches at
Army-Navy found Kenwood jumping
into the lead in points won by a 6’2
:o-212 victory over Manor. Other re
mits: Second teams—Columbia de

defeated Chevy Chase, T, to l'i:
Congressional defeated Washington, 7
to 2. Third teams—Indian Spring de
feated Congressional, 5'2 to 3 '•>; Co
lumbia defeated Chevy Chase, 6 to 3;
Army-Navy drew a bye.
Kenwood probably will make an
announcement today on the new golf
professional to succeed Wiffy Cox.
The Greens Committee and the Board
of Governors met last night end went
over a lengthy list of applicants, but
derided to hold up announcement of
the choice until later, probably today.
The announcement will be made by
Don Chamberlain.
And a good guess—and pure
lv a guess—would be that
George Diffenbaugh will be the
appointee.
George would like the job and Ken
wood likes him.
Western High School links warriors,
several times winners of the Dawes
Cup. today had a strong bid in for
the championship of the Metropolitan
Schoolboy League, following their sur
prise win over Wilson at Manor yes
terday by a score of 5'2 to 3'_. George
O. Vass. jr.. playing No, 1 for Western,
clinched the victory with a final-hole
win over Ralph Bogart, the District
junior champion. Vass shot a 75.
Buddy Sharkey shot a 72 to lead his
Gonzaga team to a 5-to-4 wrin over
St. John's at Columbia, while Roose
velt. 1937 winners of the Dawes Cup,
had little opposition to hand Tech a
row of goose eggs for a 9-to-0 win at
Kenwood.
The schoolboys are looking forward
to their individual championship, to
be played over three courses May 27,
28 and 29. The courses will be an
nounced later.
Bergman Wins Again.
A. .1. (Dutch) Bergman, the old
smoothie from Catholic University by
way of Notre Dame, hasn't spent all
those hours on the golf course learn
ing shot-making from his pal, Dutch
Eberts, for nothing. Bergman slipped
a chip shot stone dead on Congres
sional's eighteen green yesterday to
grab first prize in the first annual
tournament of the Touchdown Club,
Washington's famed gridiron outfit.
Lest it be said that Bergman
can't be quoted, the score was
91—18—73.
Burk O'Neill, the demon baseball
reporter, cracked out a 92—17—75 to
win the second prize, an engraved pair
of ear muffs, to be worn at the next
Touchdown banquet when members
of Congress start talking about a mu
nicipal stadium. Buck wants more
action and less talk. Dutch Eberts
won third prize with 85—9—76. which
entitled him to the doubtful honor of
setting up the beers for all 27 members
of the club who attended f’e dinner
and the boxing bouts at C * essional
afterward.

Smokers’ Test showed Vi'ntageTobacco
was easier on your breath
WHITE OWLS are definitely easier on your breath
scientific tests proved it. And there’s a good rea
son why, too. Every W’hite Owl always has a Vintage
tobacco filler. Nature—not artificial factory processing
—made this tobacco exceptionally mild, mellow.
We maintain a vast crop-inspection system—the only
known organization of its kind—to locate Vintage
tobacco. In Vintage years, we classify all filler tobacco
Into seven grades—and buy only tobacco of the quality
of the top three for use in White Owls.
Switch to mellow White Owls today. Taste the fine
flavor of Vintage tobacco. Enjoy real smoking pleas
ure—and applause from the ladies.
THI MIT A LUC NOSI KNOWS
Scientists use • sensitise osmoseope to
measure odor ... to record Its Intensity
and lasting power. Ten popular brands of
Se cigars were tested by this machine.
White Owl was easier on the breath than
all the others. After 1* minutes. aU trace
of tobacco odor disappeared from the
breath of White Owl smokers.
