jpIXEIIURST, y C.. April I.—More than 50,000 shots all told were h .and in the North and South Open prolf championship. Son e were titanic drives that went 280 yards. Others lonjf whizzing irons that traveled 250 yards. Not to mention countless in-between shots to the screen. But the one thin ment of drama the champi inship produced hinged on a mee*: inoffensive two-foot putt. Whether this simple two-footer dropped or skidded past the hole decided whether Paul Runyan, the frying-sizer from the Metropolitan district, set anew record for the championship. He needed the putt for a five, a round of 68 and a finishing total for 72 holes of 276. and, golf being what it is, a gallery of 3000 stood in funereal silence while he made it. Th* old record. 277. wss set a couple of years ago by Joe Kirkwood, tnrk shot artist. ->n e couice that was not as long or difficult as the one over which Runjan became the winner of the 33rd annual renewal of the mo t distinguished of all winter golf tournaments. It was not hu> fault that there vas so little drama in the tournament. There was nobody in the field who could give him a workout. mmm m m m THE frail ex-caddie from the Ozarks. who looks no bigger than Earl Sande did when he was booting 'em home at the race track, made a one-man show of the championship. He went into a three-stroke lead with a rr> .id-breaking 65 in the first round, maintained it by exactly the same martin in tlie second, increased it by two strokes in the third, and walked le. . . .v home rinht strokes to the good in the fourth and final round. In ' if wa. a championship of Runyan, by Runyan and for Runyan , int i ,t rrveri notice that the "runt.' - as he is called by rivals in the r rr-f m w!l be hard to beat in the Masters’ Tournament at Augusta , , . . . i , , r the four rounds here he scored 65-71-72-68. and was eight, Mirok under the course par. In 72 holes he had 20 threes one duece and a solitary six .mm m m m RUNYAN introduced a new note in golfing armor in the tournament, which may or may not have played an important part in his scoring. He appeared in shoe> bristling with spikes; the spikes were not only in the cu omary position on the soles of the shoes but on the sides as well. The ocular effect was that of twin porcupines denoting extreme militancy. Os course there was a pointed purpose to the spikes as there is to even thing this little giant of the links docs. He has a tendency to throw h feet nut of po. ition in hitting the ball, thus losing balance and poise; the spikes dig into the ground, form an anchorgae, and enable him to press for greater distances without topping. am. mm. XTOBODY ha* ever called Runvan a stylist of the Vardon-Jones type. IM indeed, judged by the pure art standards of golf, he is more of a laberrr Some of the fellows refer to him as the A1 Simmons of the gam*', meaning that he hits the ball with one foot in the water bucket. But such criticism L - .. or should be. all praiseworthy. Lacking power. Runyan was forced to develop his own formula to get Hi tance and it was inevitable that this formula would at times outrage the accepted canons of smooth flowing rhythm. Naturally, control under the e ctrrumstanres is more difficult, a problem that now seems to be simplified by the expedient of spikes that fasten him more securely to the turf. mm. a . a THERE are three spikes on the inside rim of the sole, two on the outside and one on the toe. The shoes were made to order at Runyan’s suggestion. Runyan tells me the spikes are most helpful on the downswu ■. at the moment of impact where con f< *'l obviously is all important. During the first round, a 65, he was not off the line once, and in scoring a 68 to finish he missed the fairway only twice. Up to now there has been no formal protest against the use of expend sptkes in golf shoes, but it does not require much imagination to vision further adventures in the field The spiked golf ball would certainly stick on the slipperiest of greens; it would also serve as an effective 1 silencer of the gabby spectator.

BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor MAYFIELD. Ky.. April I.—The only way Red Killefer's Indians can bt fooled on April Fool's Day this year is for the sun to break through the morning clouds and cast a little sunshine over their Mayfield spring training park.

Two or three youngsters may be inserted into the lineup as the game goes along. Phil Gallivan. the right-handed : pitcher obtained from the Chicago White Sox, joined the Hoosier party yesterday. He spent the day resting up from the long motor trip from Minnesota. He doesn’t want to cut loose with his throwing until there is warmth in the air. Six Released Six rookies were notified of their release over the week-end. They are Wyss, Condon, Storey and Fouts, all Hoosier lads, and Muse and Wilmeth, Kentucky youngsters. Storey and Fouts left camp with Bill Burw’ell yesterday morning and Wyss and Condon will depart for Indianapolis tonight or tomorrow. Muse and Wilmeth have been paying their own expenses. All other rookies in camp may be retained until the Indians play in Terre Haute on April 14. when Manager Burwell of the Three-I League team there will select several to try cut with his club. Moreover, a few of the most promising candidates will be kept on the Tribe roster for further observation and trial during the early weeks of the regular season. Jim Sharp, left-handed rookie pitcher of San Bernardino. Cal., has all the actions of Ferdie Schupp, old-time Indianapolis southpaw. Sharp is a lean lad of 18.

Tribe president, and Dale Miller. -.oad secretary, are due in Mayfield from Indianapolis j tonight. The Indianapolis Times sports j editor and Dick Miller, carrying the casebnll camera, are covering the spring training activities of the Indians and rolling along the Kentucky highways in a Studebaker Dictator supplied by the LitzelmanMorrison Automobile Cos. of Indianapolis. Stewart Bolen, veteran southpaw', : has had two workouts since reporting at Mayfield. He was in the hospital several days, but is ready now to settle down to regular drill. Unless Bolen is in form at the outset of the regular season. Manager Killefcr is going to be hard put for a mainstay, an experienced mainstay left-hander. The Indians have not been on the field enough to give an observer the proper slant on their strength, but just at present it looks as though plenty of help is needed, such as better catching strength, a strong l rookie outfielder to serve as reserve and a couple of experienced lefthanded hurlers.

At Big League Spring Camps

'Bv United Press) ORLANDO, Fla., April 1. —Dazzy Vance, for seven years strikeout i king of the National League while I he was with Brooklyn, today was back in a Dodger uniform. Released recently as a relief pitcher by the St. Louis Cardinals, the old Dazzler answered a special invitation from Manager Casey Stengel for a tryout. “If the Dazzler shows anything at all we’ll hang on to him for relief work,” Stengel said. “His fast, one hasn't got the zip any more maybe, but he’s plenty smart.” Vance joined the Dodgers in 1922 and remained with them for II seasons, during which he was the ace of the pitching staff. His biggest year was in 1924 when he fanned 262 and won 28 games. The Dodgers dropped an exhibition game to the Phillies at Winter Haven yesterday, 5-1, and met the Cincinnati Reds today. The Reds lost to the St. Louis Cardinals yesterday. 8-3. M’COMB.
