E. of Flatbush O'Doul Hit Harder Than Anybody After First Seven Weeks By THOMAS HOLMES One of the saddest sounding citizens you ever heard was Trank O'Doul at the close of the late, lamented ball season. In one breath the rangy Irishman from south of San Francisco's slot cursed the game of baseball. ham Lincoln Junior High quintet. 18 to 12, in a fast Division 1 game at Public School 214.

Lincoln was held to a lone field goal in th first period, but came back strong to out-score McKelway, 10 points to 8, In the second half. The lineups: Macf arlane's Extremes 1 i 4t Of Golf Scoring Arc Despair of Admirers A- By RALPH TROST With the football season rapidly reaching a climax and finale the Winter season of competitive golf in the Far West and South begins. The first of these, and a new one, that in Washington, has been played. Willie Macfarlane won it, with Tommy Armour and Sol Dt Buono languishing in second place six strokes behind, and WlfTy Cox tied for fourth, seven strokes in the rear.

And in the third breath O'Doul's lament would begin Scots Seen as Golf Starters In America Had 4-Hole Links in Florida Than Half a Century Ago The semi-classic discussion of where golf was first played in America has popped up again. You'd never guess who started It this time. It was John Ringling, showman and art patron none other. I was Interviewing Mr, Ringling in Atlanta the other day, trying to learn about his 126,000.000 art museum at Sarasota, Fla writes O. B.

Keeler of the Associated Prew. Mr. Ringling Is one celebrity who does not like to talk about himself, which is refreshing and nearly unique, but not conspicuously helpful In finding out about a vast art collection. He was smoking a fine, strong, black cigar, and some way It reminded me of golf, perhaps because Walter-J. Travis always used to smoke a cigar when playing.

Plays 'at' Uolf So I asked Mr. Ringling, apropos will think I'm a bum.

Coming over here with everything to work for and I slump all over the place. And I suppose all around the place they'll be saying that I couldn't hit away lrom that trick fence in Phllly." O'DOUL FEELS HIMSELF DISGRACED Almost the last words O'Doul said to me were: "Let me know if you hear anything about, trading me." A queer duck is Lefty Frank O'Doul.

He feels disgraced with a .336 batting average, a mark most ball players would give their ears to attain, rabbit ball or no rabbit ball. 11 season long O'Doul writhed under the raised seams and thickened cover of the National League ball, moaning piteously as though those aids to a pitcher were adopted for the express purpose of stunting the growth of his batting. "The worst outrage since the invasion of Belgium," O'Doul raved, and the things he called the National League magnates were anything but complimentary. Well, the only thing one can 'do is to hope that O'Doul doesn't take it too much to heart this winter. To be sure, O'Doul's average of doesn't look Imposing beside the .383 he hit last year and the .398 he hit the year before.

But 1931 wasn't a batters' year, what with, the old rabbit amputated from the ball to a large degree. In 1930, for example, Bill Terry led the league with a .401 average. In 1931 he hit .348 and finished only one-fifth of a percentage point out of the championship. Nothing like that will satisfy O'Doul's conscience or ease his scared soul, for Lefty Frank is afflicted with a base-hit fixation that is practically incurable. FRANK FINISHED FIFTH AFTER TOOR START Actuttlly, as you may have gucssrd, O'Doul didn't do so badly.

As a matter of fact, he finished in fifth placa In the league standing. Ths leading ten batters in the league were as AB. .430 1157 .5111 .613 .3811 H. 157 313 200 172 118 178 202 12 ll! Pel. .3488 .3.81 .337 .3.12 .331 .330 .324 Chick Hafey Bill Terry Jim Bottomley Chuck Klein Frank O'Doul Rogers Horrmby Charley Grimm Hazeu Cuvler Virgil Davit Joe Blripp Those are the ten leaders among players In 100 -games or more.

When you consider O'Doul's rotten start, everybody but O'Doul must admit that he did right well to finish so well up in such fast and polite company. As nn illustration, the batting aveirs primed in The Eagle on 8tmdzy, June 7, showed the ten who finished at the top of the league, clubbing the ball In the following fashion: AB. .125 .143 .145 .120 .160 ,12 .166 65 .140 .140 H. 46 30 49 40 52 41 52 20 34 39 Pet. .369 .34: .3:8 .330 .320 .320 .313 .308 .201 .240 Grimm Hornsby Cuyler Davis Tcrrv Bottomley Klein Hafev fitripp Ui ul Mr.

O'Doul was fit for a padded cell along about that time. He swung and he swung until his hands were blistered and his back ached but he couldn't make that old average climb for weeks and weeks. WAS NO WEAKLING AFTER HE STARTED Just wlwe the, turning point ramp. I don't know, but from June 7 down to the end of the season, the ten leading batters of the league hit like this: AB. .371 H.

Note that Bottomley, Hafey, Terry and Klein are right on his tail in this Inst set of figures. They're good hitters too. Some of the others had trouble getting started against the new Na tional League ball, too.

but no good hitter In the league had such a Boshawful time trying to collect biiw'ilts ss O'Doul In those Hist seven weeks of the season. But in tne face of that early slump, O'Doul, moaning away at the top of his lungs and with a club that was falling apart around him kept on coming in those records. He fpll oft a bit in September or he might have led the league, after all. The Irish left fielder of your Brooklyn team ought to be) the best indue of how good a hitter he is and perhaps he's right when he de Clares his season batting average a shame and a caution. But a fellow who can hit better than any one in tlm league for the last three-quarters of the season after looking ns though he couldn't paste a birthday cake with a ten nis racquet ought to be fulrly sure of his job.

HUSKIES FIND GRASS GOOD Excellent rare has made the University of Washington turf gridiron one of the best in the country This is the second year the Hus kits have played on grass at home, spectacled, scholarly looking Oalc Ridge pro; no even path the can tread. There was a time when the mere thought of conducting a championship on a short course like Fair-view, which has plenty of holes permitting pitch shot approaches, was to make Macfarlane favorite. Macfarlane with his short but straight drives, keen pitches and uncanny ability to hole UO-footers, was Just about unbeatable as was Illustrated at Pairvlew when this favorite won the Met open crown. But those days have passed Macfarlane now treats all courses alike, whether It be the drive and pitch Fair view or the back-breaking Salisbury they're all the same and Macfarlane blythely along, scoring low or high but never along any even plane. His friends thought the woefully wide range of Maciarlane's scoring to be attributed to falling eyesight.

They Implored him to change his glashes, but after each plea Willie would gather unto himself a nice, snappy low round and adhere to the' conclusion that ailments, if any, were in another quarter; THEN BLAMED HIS HANDS TlioHe same loyal friends would then conclude the trouble rested In Willie's hands which gave him con siderable trouble In the South last Winter. "Mao" would be urged to have a specialist look 'em over. But the idea never appealed to Willie. He would look down on the mitts which In their youth knew the scars bf a ship caulker's hammer and the smell of pitchy oakum and decide that they'd been toughened so thoroughly that nothing could soften them and Willie would illustrate that they were still formidable club-swinging weapons by hacking out a nne low score, A rare chap, this Willie Macfarlane. He's a bit of a Bolshevik, something of a a philosopher, staunchly conservative In many ways, an extreme democrat In others, a a shrewd merchant, a Die oi a pnuantnroplst and a golfer who can go from the zenith of brilliance as In the play-off with Wiffy Cox as a partner In the Miami international four-ball matches to tiie professional depths as In ills orry failure to come anywhere hear qualifying for the national open championship in the trials at the Westchester C.

C. a while later and then come rght buck and beat dlf a flue field In a money tournament. One notes from the Wa.shlnsion dispatches that WifTy Cox was ttgwin In the prize money and for a good share. An indication, perhaps, of a real successful Winter sen son. Cox is a notoriously poor starter.

He must work himself into stride. It look him most of last Winter's campaign to get goln. When he did he finished up grandly. Layoffs may be good for Walter Hagen, for Bob Jones and some of those others. Not (or Cox.

Like the man with whom he was supposed to have split In the national open, Billy Burke, Cox thrives on wo: It. DUCCESSOR TO JACK DOWI.INU The beginning of the "big money open" season I ecu Us the tact that the death of popular little Jack Dowllng, who was pro at the En-glneers' Club for about ten years, leaves an opening there for which there have been numerous applications, including one from Joe Turners. But there will be no appoint, ment made by the Engineers' boar-j until Spring and then the chances are that the Job will go not to one of the outstanding playing professionals but to one who. iike Dowllng. will be Interested In sticking close to the Engineers Country Club.

boo Harlow, who used to manage si-tt nascii ibiiu get neaaacnes), letjIiPfl. In his llttl onlf nrur fn an article written for a Pacific Coast gou magasine in wnicti distinct sur- prise wbb noted over Arthur "Ducky" Yates' defeat of the Coasts hero, Charlie Seaver, In the national amateur championship. Harlow knew Hagen well, Hagen knew Yates. Through both sources Harlow picked up a varied list of amusing notes. Here they are: THE LOW-DOWN ON YATES On the night after he loist to Arthur Yates, Everett Seaver, father oi the Stanford athlete Haviea writer that he had never heard of Ducky Yates until that very dav.

and he was, therefore, greatly surprised when Yates beat Charley. In case there are others on the Coast who do not know about Yates we give the following biographical notes: Name, Arthur Ducky) Yates. Born In Rochester, N. Y. Weight between 2Jo to 275.

Yates is the scion of au old and affluent Rochester family which resides In East Ave, (this Is the proper street to live on, In He went to Yale and several other Institutions of learning, and has been credited in the newspapers durlnn 12 years of having been everything from a scrub on the Yale freshmen, to an Ail-America selection oil the Ell varsity, As a boy Yates enjoyed a Junior membership In the Rochester Country Club. Walter Hagen was associated with this club in th rapacity of a.lant to the professional. HOW YATES COT HIS SOBRIQUET Yates spends his Winters in Flor Ida, with Palm Beach as headqusj" ters. He has likewise frequented Pinehttrst, Augusta, Camden and kli the classy Winter golf spots of the) East. He has made a practice of making "Duck Soup" of amateur competition in these places for" a number of Winters.

Yates Is the undisputed champion of the table d'hote meal. He absolutely ruins this form 'of food. After serving Yates for oh teaaon at the Carolina Hotel In Plne-hnrst, a bus boy graduated Into, Job of work as strong man In t)iB side show of a circus. Yates' favorite on the table d'hnte menu la) "roast duckling, oyster dressing and apple sauce." It was his mastery over this popular American plan dish that won Yates the sobriquet of "Ducky." 'CLEAN Vr, HERE COMES GATES' After Ducky had completed holes of golf over the Ptnchursl links and started for the dining room of the Carolina Hotel, Jlmmj Marr, the head waiter, seeing him coming, would send In to the head chef this general order: "Clean up the kitchen, her comes Yates." At any event, even if Mr. Seave senior had never heard of Yates, a lot of Florida amateurs and hotel chefs know all about him and re spect him.

As for Johnny Ooodman third Choice of the pacific Coast magazine he beat Jones at Del Monte, cnn eludes Harlow, but that was In 1929.

of nothing, whether he played golf. He grinned." "I go through the motions," he said. "It's fine exercise. And say-did you know that golf was first played in America right down there at Sarasota? Fact I A colony of Scots settled there more than 60 years ago, and a Colonel Gillespie laid out course of four holes, later nine, and they had a regular club, "That was before the Apple Tree Gang started their American St. Andrews Club at Yonkers." I remembered the latter, It is quite historical.

Robert Lockhart, a Musselburgh Scot, and John Reld started that one in 1888. But there are many other claims. Golf Club in ma There are newspaper records In my own state of Georgia -a notice appearing In the Georgia Gazette of Savannah of an anniversary meeting of the Savannah Golf Club for Saturday, Oct. 1, 1798, If this was an anniversary meeting tor the election of officers tes warf. so stated), the Savannah Golf Club must have been In existence before that, and long before the somewhat uncertain reference elsewhere to the organlration of an Oakhurst Golf Club at White Sul phur Springs, W.

Va In 1884, There Is a newspaper notice also In the Charleston Oazetle of October 13, 179S. that the anniversary meeting of the golf club would be held the following Saturday at the clubhouse on Harleston'a Green. But I have searched In vain for any definite record that golf actually was played at the famous old Savannah Golf Club, or at Charleston, in those days. Arrest Started li All The general' impression among American golf historians ls (hat the first organized golf, at any rate, was played by Robert Lockhart and John Reld and the Apple Tree Gang, at Yonkers, In 1888. It also is believed that the real Inspiration of the founding of this club was the arrest of Mr.

Lockhart for hitting a golf ball across the sheep meadow In Central Park, lacking other terrain. Mr. Rlngllng'a suggestion a to Sarasota, however, may lead to something of record farther back, Eighteen Games on Richmond's Schedule Manager Adam Rotundo announced yesterday the Richmond Hill High School basketball schedule tor the coming season.

They loan over too far In addressing the ball and thus cannot pivot as their center of gravity is too fur forward.

Here Is Burke at, ths top of the swing. Notice his position, it Is almost erect. Just a slight tilt forward, from the waist. This near-erect position Is necessary because without It one cannot pivot. Without pivoting, distance Is absolutely Impossible, So look to your stance to correct lacg of distance and failure to keep balanced.
