crivener points out that in four practice rounds, Ralph Guldahl, the two-time title holder who bagged the Western Open

there in 1937, failed to crack 73. . - The result is that the long-legged Norwegian is more than ever

convinced par still is tough to beat on a good course.

“The Canterbury club allowed its fairways to bulge to the right :

to take care of the members who slice,” says Guldahl, “but perhaps they won't look so wide if the wind starts howling. The course, which measures 7000 yards, plays so long it wears you out.

| “Players like Paul Runyan, Johnny Revolta and Harry Cooper, who are not noted for distance, are going to have a tough time.”

. | It is because Sam Snead is a belter and back on his game that Guldahl fears the Virginian most, Grayson believes. | Snead finished only four points behind Ben Hogan in the Goodall Round Robin, and knows Canterbury, where he was runner-up to Guldahl and Horton Smith in the Western Open of three years ago.

Hogan Has Manero’s Case as Precedent

TENSE AND CRAMPED putting cost Ben Hogan a qualifying place in the New York district, and Frank Strafdci, Brooklyn amateur, had to graciously step out to let Texas’ mighty mite get in as an «Rliernate « + « Hogan has Tony Manero’s case as a good precedent. Manero failed to qualify in 1936, but went to Baltusnol as an alterhate and came roaring down the stretch with a record score to overtake Harry Cooper. : . Hogan belongs in the championship—for his amazing scoring average on the winter golf circuit, his triumph in the Goodall Round Robin and his record-crackin runner-up total in the Metropolitan Open, among many other achievements . , . Craig Wood won the Metropolitan. |

| STRAFACI SAYS the thought of Hogan sitting on the sidelines Would have pestered him had he played in the Open. “It just didn’t seem right for an erratic amateur like me to Squeeze a high-class professional like Hogan out of a qualifying place,” Erihes Strafaci, who was éapable enough to finish ninth in the 1937 en. : . : It wouldn't have been right, and it took a high-class little sportsman like Frank Strafaci to right the wrong. -

Wood Has Strong Support in Title Chase.

MANY GOLF EXPERTS figure the 1940 Open champion will come out of this group of 10: Craig Wood, Byron Nelson, Ralph Guldahl, Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Jimmy Demaret, Paul Runyan, Henry Picard, Dick Metz and Harry Cooper. Sg Nelson is the ional Open defending champion. . . . Wood was nosed out of the Open championship in the playoffs last year. “ew The Lone Star State ‘thinks it has the title in the bag. . . . Nelson, Guldahl, Hogan and Demaret hail from Texas and form a powerful array. : As the clans gather in Warrensville, O., the long shot boys ‘are picking over the field for a good bet. +++ And it is said Lawson Little probably will be installed as the No. 1 dark horse. i

FOREIGNERS in the Open field are Jim Ferrier, Sydney, Australia, and Martin Pose and Aurelio Castanon, Buenos, Aires, Argentina. . . . Pose is well liked by some links observers and rates dark horse . consideration. ; | Indianapolis interest in golf's World Series centers in John David, the Hillcrest amateur. . . .

IND By HENRY M’LEMORE 2s ; United Press Staff Correspondent EAR | NEW YORK, June 3.—My wife, who has proved hérself a second columnist on more than one occasion, yesterday parachuted down. on Yankee Stadium and managed to land in the special section of seats reserved

for the wives of the Yankee players. | She had been fully equipped by me with the proper pencils and notebooks, and by nature with the necessary nose for newsy gossip. During the double-header with the St; Louis Browns she dutifully collected information on the be} avior of Yankee wives during the games and brought it back to what I like to consider is general headquarters. After the necessary deletion of notes concerning such matters as hats, dresses, shoes, recipes and babies, here is what I found that might interest you: There are five Yankee wives who never miss a game, be it hot or cold, the , Browns or the Red Sox... .. They are Dorothy Gordon, Dorothy DiMaggio, Frances Chandler.Josephine Dahlgren and Jessie Hadley. . . . All of those who miss games do not do so voluntarily. .. . For instance Martha Keller stays at home with the baby while Charley is playing, and listens to the game on the radio. . . . Violet Digkey, on the other hand, lives in an apartment which overlooks the Stadium and she can take her daughter

“Toots” and see the game from a living room window at the same time. There is a tremendous feeling of camaraderie among the wives while their husbands are fighting to retain their world’s championship. , , » When Marius Russo, who pitched the first game, got into temporary difficulty, the, wives all turned to Mrs.| Russo and offered encouragement and assured her that her left-handed husband would weather the storm. . ., When DiMaggio hit a home run into the left field stands|the girls all stood ‘up, shook Dorothy DiMaggio’s hand vigorously, and gave her the feminine equivalent of an assist. | Handshaking is limited to extra base hits. . . . A single by a husband draws only a nod of approval or a girlish poke in the back. : ; The spirit of camaraderie between the wives extends -even to dinner and supper menus. . 4 a Yankee player has an exceptionally good day it bat, say three for four or four for five—the other wives call his home and find out what he had for dinner the night before. . Whatever it was, the other husbands are served the same dish the following night. . . There are other superstitions, too. . . .

[To F eller And Walters

Whenever They Pitch, They're Favorites

By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Siaff Correspondent

NEW YORK, June 3.—The baseball sharpshooters’ standing motto this season is: “Don’t bet' against Feller or Walters.” Feller is favored to win every time he toes the rubber, sometimes as high as 3-1 against the second division clubs. = There are only three or four pitchers in the league who can get the odds on Feller down as low as 7-5. Ruffing, Yanks, is one, and Newsom, Tigers, another. ’ Walters isn't quite the betting favorite that Feller is, but he’s been as high as 6-5 this season. There's no pitcher in the league an even choice to beat the Cincinnati ace.

Walters Wins 9th Straight

Between them this season Feller and Walters have won 17 games for their respective clubs while losing only two, both: of them by the Cleveland fireballer. off his ninth straight. triumph yesterday, beating the Bees, 11-1. He didn’t allow a hit until after one wag out in the sixth—a single by Bill Wietelmann, a .235 hitter in the minors last season. Bucky allowed only five hits and would have had & shutout but for an error by Johnny Rizzo wh) more than made up for his miscue by hitting two homers, each with a man on. Feller pitched the Vittmen to a 7-2 victory over the Athletics for his sixth straight triumph. His record is now eight wins and two losses, both to Detroit. Feller fanned seven, walked five and allowed eight hits. After the Reds and Vittmen won their openers, they went down to defeat in the nightcaps. Jim Turrer held the Bees hitless until the seventh but they got to him for three hits combined with an error and a long fly for a 2-0 victory over the league-leaders. Dick Errickson Leld the Reds to eight hits.

Brooklyn Wins Twice

Staging a seven-run rally in the seventh the Athletics hammered their way to a 12-6 victory to gain an even break with Cleveland. After facing Feller’s fast ball, Naymick, Humphries, Zuber and Doxson were duck soup for the A's. Brooklyn came out of its threegame nosedive by taking a double-

Blues Better Not Coast

By UNITED PRESS The Kansas City Blues split a Sabbath double-header with Milwaukee and today were down to a game and a half lead in the American Association—hardly a margin to rest on with the Minneapolis Millers riding a winning streak. Pounding Jimmy DeShong and Joe Dickinson, who relieved him in the seventh, the Blues collected 14 hits in the first game, while Milwaukee got 11.

And the weather has done’ so many things to the course that trying to put your finger on one man and saying “there is the fellow to beat this year” is tougher than filling an inside straight. For almost a month the weather has been very damp and today around the locker room they were saying that unless ‘the sun, which finally came out good and hot yes--terday, stays out all week, the%winner might take the title with the highest 72-hole sre nfs years. Fairways A 2Ly The course is 6921 yards long and it has a par of 72 which under good conditions is hard to beat. But, despite yesterday’s sun, the fairways: are soggy and the rough resembles - nothing better than a chunk of the Everglades. : . The early arrivals in the field of 170 had their first good look at the course yesterday and were very miserable when they came in. Tee
