Low Scorers
Sub-Par Performances May Shatter National Mark of 286.
BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent
SPRINGFIELD, N. J., June 6—
What promised to be one of the! =
maddest scrambles in the history of golf began today when a red-hot field of 76 shgrpshooters teed off in the final 36 holes of the fortieth National Open championship.
Never has the Open field been so bunched. The leading group was separated by only four strokes, 18 by five, 22 by six, 32 by seven, 44 by eight and 47 by nine. When it is remembered that Opens of the past have proved that any man who starts the last two rounds no more than 10 strokes behind the leader
has a sound chance, the possibility |
of a war-whoop finish is grand. Two of the most formidable chal-
lengers for the title won last year
by Sam Parks, who didn’t even quality for the last half of play, were among the early . starters. Shortly after breakfast time Johnny Revolta, who had a 70 and 71 for his first two rounds for an aggregate of 141, left the first tee with a fair gallery tagging his heels. - Revolta was barely out of sight when big Vie Ghezzi of Deal, N. J., who shared the half-way lead with Ray Mangrum of Pittsburgh, with a two-round aggregate of 140, blasted one down the middle of the fairway ‘and was off on the big chase, = Record Crowd Expected
The weather again was perfect. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky, and the wind was cool and gentle. The Baltusrol course figured to play just as easy -as in the first two rounds, despite a further setting back of the tee markers by the committee. Club officials, accompanied
by the groundkeeper, toured the
course shortly after dawn, to move the markers 10 years farther to the rear. y Today’s crowd was expected to establish a new high in gate receipts for a National Open final. With
more paying customers. It was an early crowd. Before the
was jammed.
The big crowd was proof that golf
followers were keen for the sub-par shooting which has featured the tournament. It was almost certain
that the winner would break the
open record of 286, established by Chick Evans in 1916, and tied by
Gene Sarazen four years ago ab
Fresh Meadows. There were six players who qualified for the last day's play with sub-par scores of petter than 142, and one who equalled it. 2
Farrell Cracks Par
willie Hunter, who had a 148 for the first two rounds, and Huske, who was three strokes worse off, the first
twosome off. didn’t help their chances by reaching the turn in 38 and 36, respectively. Johnny Farrell, the home pro, starting 10 strokes off the pace, began like a house afire and was three under par at the end of four holes. Farrell was out in 33, three under par. Revolta was one under after four holes and his playing partner, Frank Moore of Cleveland, was the same. Revolta birdied the easy first hole in four, and parred the next three. Moore picked up his birdie on the short third when he canned a

Granville and Brevity Rule Favorites in Belmont Stakes Today.
BY HENRY SUPER United Press Staff Correspondent
BELMONT PARK, N. Y,, June 6.
A two-horse race was forecast between Granville and Brevity, both of whom still hope to salvage at least a little gold from a campaign Sominated up to now by Bold Ven-
With the Bold one out with a bowed tendon, any one of 10 expected starters can challenge Morton L. Schwartz's big chestnut colt for 1936 3-year-olds supremacy by taking today's classic,
Mile and a Half
But the men who lay the odds, jockeys and plain stable boys figure that Granville and Brevity, both of whom tasted Bold Venture’s dust in the Preakness and Kentucky respectively, are going to battle it out down the stretch of the mile and a half course. A crowd of 35,000 is expected to fill’ the stands here for the closing classic of one of the most successe ful Belmont meetings in history. Granville, William Woodward's son of Gallant Fox, the 1930 winner, will run coupled with Teufel, Wheatley Stable’s Wood Memorial ‘winner and Woodward's Isolation, all of whom are trained by Jim Fitzsimmons. The entry: was quoted early today at 8-5. Brevity, Joseph
511 3|E. Widener's coit, ruled the favor-
ite at 6-5. Bold Venture has earned approximately $65,800 this year and still can be displaced as leading money
