- OPEN QUALIFYING BEGUN

Hagen Among Ex-Champions | Seeking Posts

1194 Candidates Shooting For 141 Places Available For Denver Tourney.

NEW YORK, May 31 (U. Ye The third largest field in history | plays qualifying rounds today for | the 42d U. S. Open golf championship which will be contested over | the Cherry Hills course at Denver, | June 9, 10 and 11. { There were 1194 hopefuls shooting | for 141 available places in the field | of 170 which actually will play for the title won by Ralph Guldahl | last year. Twenty-nine exemp- | tions brought the total entry to | 1223, exceeded only by the record | of 1402 set last year, and the 1237 |

entered in 1936. Five former Open champions, including a two-time holder of the crown, Walter Hagen, shoot for

places in the 31 districts. The others |

are Tony Manero, Tommy Armour, Willie McFarlane and Olin Dutra.

Three other ex-titleholders are ex- |

empt along with Guldahl They are Gene Sarazen, Billy Sam Parks Jr., who finished among the 30 low-scorers last year. Hagen, who won the title in 1914 and again in 1919, seeks a place in the San Francisco district where 28 were shooting for five spots.

Armour Faces Battle

Manero, 1936 winner, was not expected to have much trouble making the grade at Longmeadow, Mass, where four berths were open. Armour, 1927 champion, had plenty of opposition in the Chicago district where 126 have their eyes on 16 places, more than awarded to any other district Among them were Horton Smith, Lawson Little, Dick Metz, Willie Goggin, Jock Hutchinson Sr. and amateur Wilfred Wehrle. McFarlane was one of 75 contesting for the 10 places open in the New York metropolitan district, which includes such aspirants as Mike Turnesa, Willie Klein, Craig Wood, Henry <Ciuci, Jess Sweetser and Amateur Tommy Suf-

who did not make the trip to England. Dutra, who nosed for the title by a stroke was among the Los Angeles hopefuls trying for 13 spots. Others in the Southern California district are Paul Mangrum, Roe Ezar, Charley Lacey, George Von Elm. Fay Coleman, Les Madison and Roger Kelly.

a “first 10” a putter that bag. “You know,” he said, “if there's enougn places open, maybe 1 can qualify for the U. S. Amateur. I'd sure like that!” Experts have been watching Vines and his golf for two years and many say his tournament career, luck, may be closer than he thinks.

perfect for a player so new to the game, Vines ended his second tour with Perry by dropping the final match at Glencoe, 11l., Memorial Day, 3-6. 10-8, 7-5. It was a costly defeat, for Vines had wagered at the start he would have a margin of 15 victories. He missed by one, with 48 victories in 82 matches. “Well, anyway, now I can concentrate on golf,” Vines smiled. “I've got a lot of work to do on my short game, “I've found that tennis and golf will mix to a certain extent but whacking a tennis ball around for six months is bound to throw off your short irons.” Perry Not Interested

Vines said he will forget all about tennis until October, when he will go East to witness national championships and Davis Cup play. “I want to get into as many golf tournaments as I can,” he said. “I've only been in five or six and need the experience. Strain? Sure, there's more in golf than tennis right now. I'm not so good at golf.” Perry, content to be what he calls a “week-end golfer,” showed a little interest in Vines’ plans but appeared more anxious to get back to New York and his wife, actress Helen Vinson, and “just tour around the country for a couple of months. “No, I'm not going back to England now,” he said. “And let's not talk any more about my becoming a U. S. citizen. Not just now.”

| expected to show a sharp shift in | national interest from the governorship, which dominated the primary campaign, to the Senatorial contest. In the primary the country was watching the Governorship race on the Democratic side, because the prestige of John L. Lewis in national politics was at stake. Because the Lewis-Guffey forces failed to nominate Thomas Kennedy for the Governorship, the figures of Mr. Lewis will bulk less large in November, although politicians will watch the returns closely to see whether the C. 1. O. vote goes to Charles Alvin Jones, the “regular” candidate who | Kennedy for the nomination.

Liberal vs. New Deal

National interest is expected to | concentrate on the Senatorial race | because that contest offers a choice | between an ultra-New Dealer, Gov- | ernor Earle, and a “conservative liberal,” Senator Davis. Re-election of Senator Davis would be proof that the second most populous state prefers his moderate

brand of liberalism to the more radical ideas of Governor Earle. An Earle victory would mean the opposite. The only way in which Governor Earle favors changing the New Deal is to provide more of it. Among champions of big Federal spending, he is ahead of President Roosevelt and the latter's Wash=ington advisers. He is a leading advocate of a third term for Mr. Roosevelt. Governor Earle has been abundantly publicized as a “New Deal Governor.” Accordingly his defeat in November would be damaging *o the Administration.

Backs Social Legislation

Senator Davis is probably regarded by the country at large simply as a Republican Senator, without much regard to the fact that he has been a consistent supporter of labor and social legislation. A victory for him, on that account, would be given more anti-New Deal significance outside Pennsylvania than the facts would warrant. In a statement the other day Senator Davis described himself as | “neither a radical nor a reactionary” and said: “I am as much opposed to the political and economic excesses of the New Deal as I have been to the social and economic blindness of the Old Deal.” He criticized both “reactionary

and sweatshop-operating employers who resort to espionage, and too zealous workers in the cause of labor who invoke sit-down strikes.”
