DENVER, June 13
The prize ring and the golf course have little |
in common, vet whistling Ralph Guldahl, the transplanted Texas heavy-
weight, argues eloquently to the contrary.
The big fellow who has just wi
pionship twice in a row, coming fro spread-eagle a brilliant field a sub par 69, told me today he won mainly because he had trained and prepared himself for the test as if he were going into a prize fight. “From the start I naturally trained hard to be in physical condition,” he said “A!l golfers do that. Next I decided to come out here in advance and work out against my opponent—in this instance, the treacherous Cherry Hills course. “This Is a break the golfer has the fiehter doesn't. A Schmeling or a Louis can’t work out against his actual opponent. The he can do is work out against some one who affects the general
stvle and tactics of the opponent. | | But, | opponent
to repeat. the golfer has his in front of him for as many workouts as he cares to make.” The champion continued to talk in fight terms. “What I had to find out about my opponent was whether it would be wise to box him or fight him and I soon reached the conclusion the best
| thing to do was go in for finesse in
the Tunney manner.” This was beginning to get a little vague until Guldahl explained that
| the course placed a premium on the |
controlled tee shot. “After I

An Effective Formula
thought, the chamthis wasn’t altogether so. , . . “I did use the driver off the tee at the 10th and 11th holes because there was less chance of danger at those two points. But | off all the other tees, except the extremely short ones, of course, I

They cheered the German thioughout the workout. In the entire session Max showed | {only one flash of viciousness.

POMPTON LAKES, N. J. June, 13 (U.

Louis’ left got in some damaging work on the three helpmates, but rabid fans did not like the manner in which they found the boss’ jaw with long rights. After the milling Louis. weighed 202'5, about three pounds over what he plans to scale for the championship fight June 22 in Yankee Stadium.
