Archie Compston Likely to Defeat Walter Hagen

Gene Sarazen Believes Lack of Practice Will Handicap American. 1,500 TO SEE CONTEST U. S. Star Takes Precautions Against Oversleeping. Editor's Note: Following is the first of a series written so rthe United Press by Gene Sarazen. former national ooen golf champion of the United States, who will cover the British Open championship and incidental matches exclusively for the United Press. BY GENE SARAZEN Former Open Golf Champion (Copyright, 1928. by the United Press) LONDON, April 26—1 am afraid that Walter Hagen, although he is the outstanding professional golfer of the United States, is likely to be defeated by Archie Compston, the hard-hitting British pro, in their match at Moor Park, Friday. It is asking too much of Hagen that he should be at his best for the match, since he is practicing today for the first time since Walter made a regular “Lindbergh ’ hop lrom California to New York and thence to London, without getting in a day’s practice. He had hoped, as we all did, to get in some practice aboard the Aquitania, on which we crossed, but the weather proved too rough. Admission for the Hagen-Comp-ston match has been fixed at fifteen shillings, approximately $3.75, the highest amount ever charged for exhibition golf in England. Attendance at the match will be limited strictly to 1,500 persons, and it is apparent that many more than that would like to see the contestants in action. Walter is taking no chances of arriving late for Friday's match as he did for one with Abe Mitchell once. Our P. G. A. champion was severely criticised on the previous occasion. Here is what he has done this time: Hagen hired a private detective, a strapping six-footer, to accompany him to the theater tonight, return with him to the Savoy Hotel and call him early in the morning. Thus he obtains protection against the curious crowds which follow him everywhere, and he is assured of not over-sleeping.

Wednesday’s hero—Red Lucas, Cincinnati pitcher, who pitched against the St. Louis Cardinals for seventeen innings, finally vanquishing them 5 to 4. The Cards used three pitchers. Acting as a pinch hitter, in his first appearance of the year, Walter Henline tripled to center in the ninth inning, sending Statz and Dave Bancroft home to give the Robins a 3-to-2 victory over the Phillies. Cleveland made it two-all in their four-game series with the St. Louis Browns by winning, 7 to 3. Garland Buckeye, who left-handed the Browns into submission for more than seven innings, was forced to retire after he had been hit by a batted ball. Earl Whitehill, Tiger's southpaw, held the White Sox scoreless fc the first six innings to win 3 to 2, giving the Detroit team an even break in the series of four games. Clever fielding and hard-hitting behind Pipgras’ good pitching carried the Yankees to a 12 to 4 win over the Senators. Five errors, two each by Wilson and English, and Charley Root’s wildness were the outstanding factors in the 10 to 0 shutout of the Cubs by the Pirates. A sacrifice fly by Cochrane brought Ty Cobb in with the winning run in the Athletic’s 3 to 2 victory over the Red Sox. It was the fourth consecutive Athletic victory.

Dempsey Victor Over Kearns in Contract Suit Bn United Press NEW YORK, April 26. Jack Dempsey doesn’t owe Jack Kearns his former pal and manager, anything, a jury in Federal Court has ruled. Thus the breach of contract suit which Kearns instituted against Dempsey in Chancery Court at Atlantic City, Sept. 18, 1926, and which developed into the most famous legal battle in boxing history was terminated with Dempsey the winner. The sum Kearns sought was at varying times $333,333.33, $701,026.00, $534,360.00 and finally $83,333.33. After four and a half hours of deliberation the jury returned a verdict answering two questions put to it by Judge John C. Knox, 10:45 p. m. Wednesday. The decision was that the contract signed between Dempsey and Kearns at Saratoga Springs in August, 1923, was a valid contract, but that the life of the contract was terminated in July, 1925, by mutual consent.

SUNSHINE made it possible for’ many who find it possible to play golf during the week, to get out on the courses. They found the links, both city and private, in excellent condition. More hot sun is needed to bring the new grass through, but as they were everyone could be heard remarking how they were able to stick ’em on the green or get distance on the fairways. While we do not relish making predictions about the weather next week-end, we feel that it is about time to get the breaks and a couple of nice days should roll around. Should that happen the courses will be fairly deluged with humanity. a a a IT might be well for thoe women who think trodding up and down the fairways of a golf course is working too hard and who prefer instead to sit inside and play bridge in the summer, to peruse the record of Mrs. A. A. McClamrock, Indiana’s veteran woman golfer. Mrs. McClamrock, who resides in Frankfort, Ind., admits sha is 60 and is proud of it. If when we are sixty and

can bang the guttapercha about a golf course and qualify in the championship bracket at a State tournament, j we, too, will notl hesitate to tell our age and that wo are proud of it. No one ever ac-' cused Mrs. Me- j Clamrock of slowing up play. She moves along the fairways at a pace that makes her younger opponents hustle, particularly

It is not unusual to hear Mary shout, “Not so fast, Auntie, we’re not going to a fire!” tt t tt Woman suffrage doesn't count at the University of Wisconsin. The athletic counsel of the school decided that Miss Dorothy Page, former champion of Women’s Western Golf Association, was ineligible to play on the school golf team. Perhaps some of the boys objected to bowing to feminine supremacy, for Dorothy can shoot in the low seventies over any course. a a a A card from the Indianapolis Country Club states that owing to bad weather the opening of the golf season and the beefsteak dinner was postponed last Saturday until this wek-end. A double event will be staged Saturday. Members will play for the Welborn trophy, which

and promptly settled. Cliff Waggoner, known to hundreds of golfers over the city and State and secretary of the association was named to the post again. His annual report read at the dinner gave the membership an inkling of the hard work Cliff lias been doing for the organization.

They did not fail to ('lift Waggoner realize that fact when the matter of a secretary was mentioned someone nominated Waggoner for re-election. It was seconded and the vote of acclimation given so vigorously Cliff surely did not fail to realize he is held high in the esteem of the gang. It was a popular selection. tt tt st The Western Golf Association junior golf championship, open to youths under 21 years of age, has been awarded the Glen View Club of Chicago, Aug. 7-10, it was announced in Chicago today.
