Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Aug. 28. IT ail seems like a dream. I can •carcely believe it even now. Twenty-four hours ago I was a nobody in golf, unheralded and unsung. Today I am a champion. Honored and feted. Ah, the drama cf this life! Over the very same course on which Robert Jones won the national open championship a year ago I became the champion golfer of the Baseball Writers' Guild. At least, it was the same course until I finished. nan To be mire. I was emitted by a handicap allowance, thourh it one of only 33 atrokeo. My peraonal opinion it that the handicap waa meager enough. But there hare been aneerin* comment* to the •ontrary. , nun Fortunately. I am a real champion at heart. I can take these things or leave ■them. It is the fate of the successful to he leered at and mocked. Even Lindbergh tai accused of having swum part of the way to Paris. nun Naturally I intend to be a fighting ehampion. No worthy challenger will be ignored. Let him prove his rights and I will meet him in anv sand trap he designates. nun I HAVE found in writing about other champions that the customers are interested in the intimate details of his game. Well, I suppose I’m what you would call a self-made golfer. By that, I mean I have never taken a lesson in my life, and I am told that my game will bear this out. nan My theory is that the less fuss you make over golf the worse your score is going to be. so I Just walk up to the ball and smack it. asking no quarter and giving none. I will admit that this is not conducive to consistent accuracy but I am adventurous by nature and if the golf architect puts traps and bunkers on the course I feel that somebody ought to go Into them and see what they are all about. ana T have tried to model niv game after Leon Errol's self-folding knee. and Rumania political situation with slight variations.

Two Vets Given Chance
/w\ 4 ~
George Kelly
TF the Chicago Cubs win their second consecutive National League pennant this season, perhaps come of the credit will be due to a pair of veterans whom Manager Joe McCarthy has brought back to the big show for comeback attempts. Charley Grimm, Bruins’ first sacker, was forced out of the game Aug. 16 with a spike wound, and McCarthy immediately secured Long George Kelly, formerly of the Giants and Reds, from Minneapolis, to fill the foie until Charley is able. Reports from Chicago today stated the stitches had been taken from the wound and Grimm will be back in ten days. As an aid to his pitching staff that will see plenty of work during the final month of the season, McCarthy has acquired the southpaw services of Jesse Petty; who was waived out of the National League only this year. Petty came from Newark and formerly was with the Indianapolis A. A. Indians. t
