Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK. July I.—Nobody in sports dominates his sphere so rcmpletelv as does young Bobby Jones, the Atlanta barrister. For the past several years or so he has been presenting fresh evidence that he is the greatest golfer in the hiss tory of the game. Sunday at Winged Foot in another of those familiar play-offs Jones crushed a hard-working professional from the Chicago district. A1 Espinosa, to win ’he American open championship for the third time. Baa Over a test of seventy-two holes Espinosa had established himself as the best professional of the week. Against the chubby, lighthared. honey-toned southerner he furnished no more spirited opposition than the big bags in a fistic e orkout. aaa IN MOST FORMS OF SPORT THR PROFESSIONAL REPRESENTS THE HIGHEST NOTE OF SKILL AND THE ULTIMATE IN ARTISTRY. IN GOLF IT IS DIFFERENT. JONES MAKES IT SO. • A DAT IN AND DAT OUT PROPOSITION HE IS PROBABLY TWO OR THREE STROKES BETTER THAN ANY PROFESSIONAL IN THE WORLD. aaa HE won the open for the first time in 1923, and every year since, with one exception, has won ?ga.n or finished a bang-up second. Charles Winninger, the Thespian, says the event is no longer an open championship, “it is an invitation tournament," insists Mr. Winninger. ‘ The pros are invited to come to the tournament and take a licking from i Jones." B B B Something may have to be done about the situation. It may readily he seen that Jones is a menace to the continued progress of the professionals’ business. Theoretic? !!v, th- professional is the high priest of the cult. For a stipulated sum he reveals to the gog-gle-eyed duffer all the mysteries of the back-spin, the fade and the rut shot. Bn. there is something wrong with the picture. B B B AFTER ALL THE PROFESSIONAL TS ■JUST A SECOND RATE ARTIST THESE /days. THERE IS AN AMATEUR WHO lIS INFINITELY BETTER. THERE IS AL- | WAYS DANGER OF THE PUPIL TURNING I TO THE MASTER AFTER A HIGH PRICED | LESSON AND SAYING. NOW SHOW ME ? low THAT BOY. JONES. HOLDS HIS W UTTER." b b a STONES was complete master of the ft playoff Sunday. There was no j gyridence of the nerve pressure | !%iich caused him unaccountably to f -Sack and take a 79 for his fourth I Sund the day before when he i rmed to have the championship I " finitely won. It was Espinosa who ! iild not control his shots or his frves. aaa .Some of the pros find it difficult j conceal a burning resentment j | Vr the determined fight Jones j 1 ikes for their championship Ih season. The resentment is j of unabashed selfishness, j Jp‘‘s can’t capitalize the cham- | i.iship, at least not in an import way, and each time he wins keeps a professional from addfrom 525.000 to 575.000. „ tt e BF SURE NOT ALL THE PROS THIS WAY ABOUT JONES BUT IH E A FEW OF THEM DO AND FP.ACLLY ALL OF THEM WOULD JUST jpg OON SEE HIM SOME PLACE ELSE Hlff WEEK OF THE TOURNAMENT. BBS %'IES doesn't enter the open Smith the precise idea of keepjiny professional from whining stake. He enters because it is the pffltimate test of golf superiority or |lither side of the Atlantic, and because every golf follower in the wants to seem him in there. B B B g|| Nothing could be more meanl&igless or purposeless than an championship with Jones on f sidelines. Winning it would gmas hollow as heating Joe for the heavyweight -r-tTifpionship of the universe. B S B STILL. BARKING JONES FROM THE OPEN WOULD BE ONE WAY OF PREVENTING HIM FROM WINNING THE TASK OF SUBDUING HIM WITH THE WOODS AND THE IRONS APPEARS TO BE UTTERLY HOPELESS. SO FAR AS THE PRESENT SCHOOL OF PROFESSIONAL IS CONCERNED. TAKE SOCCER CUP Bv UvO t 1 NEW YORK.

Rogers Hornsby finally has hit his real stride, and the knovdedge that he is again the Rajah of swat has sent pennant hopes in Chicago to their highest pitch of the season. After a slow start, both at bat and in the field. Hornsby’s game became brilliant ten days ago and apparently the whole Chicago team was inspired by his leadership, for the Cubs have won eight straight games, taking the league lead. In the last six games, Rogers obtained fourteen hits out of twenty times at bat, for an average of .700. Four of the hits were home runs, three were doubles and two were triples, making a total of thirty-four bases with fifteen hits. Hack Wilson and Kiki Cuyler.

In his last twenty-three times at bat, Wilson has obtained 9 hits, for an average of .391 and Cuyler has gotten 10 out of 26, averaging, 384. With practically the whole team hitting better and leading the league in team fielding, and Hartnett about ready to get back into the game the Cubs look better than at any time this season.
