HARRY COOPER LEADS GOLFERS Leads Invitational Tourney; Bobby Jones Falls Well Back Augusta. Ga., Apr. 4 Riding high on a cold gale that all but ruined this year’n comeback hbpes of the great Hob Jones and otherwise buffeted an all-star golf field unmercifully. Light Horse Harry Cooper gallop'd out in front in the first round of the $5,00 OAugusta national invitation tournament. The Chicago professional, who hist a play-oil to Tommy Armour nine years ago for the American open championship. outshot old man par and his nearest rival by two strokes with a, 70 that was sensational under the treacherous scoring circumstances. Cooper, with a pair of 35'0, took the lead from the veteran Al Espinosa. professional at the .Mexico City Country Club, who motored 2,300 miles just to play here and signalized his start with a pajequalling 72. clinching second place. Espinosa was the only other player to come within tw-o shots of perfect golf as the frigid blast scattered favorites all over the Georgia country side. Propping quickly from the optimistic spot of betting favorite, Jones -started so badly that he had a hard struggle to finish this first round in 78. six shots over par. eight strokes behind the leader and tied for twenty-sixth place in the field of 53 starters. Jones was just another long shot, after being backed down to 6-to-l in the pre-tournament wagering. but he had lots of company. Nearly a score of players failed to break 8b and Craig Wood of New- York, runnerup for the past two years, took an 88. o Film Depicts Hit And Run Driver - » Endorsed by traffic directors and automobile associations throughout the country, 'Hit and Run Driver," a featurette coming to the Adams theatre.

Maybe Sweepstake Losers Win! iilfflMWW SSSSK' J»?Vi l •* = ■ SLwJhI w * p a ** dra w ‘" --M 8088 —a I i — J HM' — *Oi Now that all the fanfare and ballyhoo showered on winners of Irish sweepstake tickets has died way, and the few winners have started spending their money, it seems appropriate to call attention to the other side of the picture. More than 2,000,000 tickets are usually sold in United States alone on the Irish sweepstakes. This year there were only about 700 winners in this vast number. In addition to the terrific odds stacked up against the ticket holder, the country is flooded with false tickets on which the holder hasn’t even a slight chance of winning. Only the winners are in the spotlight, which fails to bring to light the disappointment and disillusion of the hundreds of thousands of losers. But experience is something, and maybe the losers really win when it comes to playing the sweepstakes!,

Modern Trend in Garden Design

Thare is a modern movement in landscape design which doos not stop merely with making triangular flower beds. It rejects most of the formulas Land dogmas which have been too generally applied regardless ot whether they produced the best solution for a given problem. Typical dogmas are: That every house should have a foundation planting, to "tie the house to the ground.” and that the grounds should be bounded by a shrubbery' border. But a house may look better without a foundation planting and the grounds without a shrubbery border. The designer -should not be expected to comply with formulas at the expense of a i good effect. He should be allowed free p.ay to devis.' . nting which will enhance the beauty of the house and the owner's enjoyment of the grounds. Rather than being guided by formulas. he will follow only the funI damental principles of design.

,Th it? is the theory and it seems i sound, but, like some other "modem” ideas in art. not so new. ■ *De«ignera several hundred years . ago who were unhampered by gar- > dening dogmas, and well acquaintt ed with the fundajnental principles : of design, nevertheless found that they had to deal with materials ' which nature had provided and i which did not always comply with - ■ their notions of what trees, shrubs i and flowers should be. to fit their ' ■ favored designs. The result was : that they deformed trees and • shrubs e.’id suppressed the natural i grace of flowers in order to produce creation which turned out to rI be really architectural concep--11 tions, built of plants instead of I i stones. ; i Ther n will undoubtedly be great f temptation ’for landscape design- - ers seeking the ‘ modem" note to | follow this ancient example. But - such a style is likely to be short- - lived. Gardens which depart from J nature are so unsatisfying that a
