GOLF’S HALL OF FAME
' I 'HE P. G. A., meaning the Pro-
-*■ fessional Golfers’ association, is
concluding arrangements to estab- |
lish golf’s Hall of Fame for the Unit- |
ed States. We suggested this idea ,
some months back, and now Tom !
Walsh and Freddie Corcoran are i
completing a plan to carry the mat
ter through along correct lines.
The plan is to have a small, acting
committee composed of those who
have written golf for
over 30 years and so
have most of the
background needed
for the earlier days
of play. But the ac
tual voting will be
carried on by a far
larger group, repre
senting every section
of the country’s golf
ing press.
The plan also will
include the names
of only four or five
stars in the first selection, to be
made from the champions who have
paraded U. S. fairways in the last
40 or more years. After this first
selection is named, there will be
additions voted upon each year,
largely after the manner of base
ball’s similar hall of lasting lumi
naries.
The Long List
The list of our leading stars is
both long and brilliant. There will
be many arguments after the first
few are fixed in their higher places,
especially when the yearly additions
face the vote.
In this list the electors have the
following cast, in partial array, to
pick from—
Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Gene
Sarazen, Francis Ouimet, Jerry
Travers, Willie Anderson, Jack Mc
Dermott, Alex Smith, Chick Evans,
Mac Smith, Walter J. Travis, Jess
Sweetser, Lawson Little, Johnny
Goodman, Ralph Guldahl, Long Jim
Barnes, Denny Shnte, Tommy Arm
our, Freddie McLeod, Johnny Far
rell and many others.
For example, there are only five
men who have won both the U. S.
BOBBY JONES
and British Opens. They are Walter
Hagen, Bobby Jones, Gene Sarazen,
Jim Barnes and Tommy Armour.
There are only three players who
have won the U. S. and British ama
teur championships. They are Jess
Sweetser, Bobby Jones and Lawson
Little.
There are only six players who
have won both the U. S. amateur
and the U. S. Open—they are Fran
cis Ouimet, Jerry Travers, Chick
Evans, Bobby Jones, Johnny Good
man and Lawson Little.
There are only four entries who
have won the F. G. A., the British
and the U. S. Open. They are Ha
gen, Sarazen, Armour and Barnes.
Jones is the lone entry who has
won the U. S. Open, the British
Open, the U. S. Amateur and the
British Amateur. He was never eli
gible for the P. G. A.
Denny Shute has won the P. G.
A. and the British Open.
Four Divisions
There are really four divisions or
epochs in U. S. golf.
1. The domination of the Scotch
and English for so many of the
earlier years — Anderson, Smith,
Auchterlonie, and others.
2. The advent of John J. McDer
mott, ex-caddie, who first cracked
this monopoly in 1911 and 1912.
3. The Ouimet miracle at Brook
line in 1913 that sent the lure of the
game spinning to more than a mil
lion kids—that took golf from the
society to the sporting pages.
4. The arrival of Bobby Jones and
his 13 national titles acquired in
just eight years before he stepped
aside.
Two of the most amazing records
were written for golf history by Bob
by Jones and Walter Hagen.
Jones, by running 1-2 in the C. S.
Open through a matter of eight out
of nine years against brilliant com
petition.
Hagen, by winning something like
23 consecutive P. G. A. matches,
28 out of 29, in five successive P.
G. A. title tournaments against the
pick of professional golf.
To these one might add Lawson
Little’s feat in winning 31 consecu
tive battles in the U. S. and British
Amateur championships.

Bizarre, Gypsy-Like Prints
For Play Clothes for Summer
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
ivr&gy-■;••• •• {
XX/" E WANT color! We want col-
’ ’ or! That’s the idea when it
comes to the spectacular prints for
play clothes now making beaches,
tennis courts, golf grounds and all
places of outdoor sports a scene of
mad, riotous, eye-thrilling color this
summer. So when you buy play
clothes don’t stint on color whatever
you do. Especially in the matter of
gay cotton prints go as gypsy-like as
you please in choosing bizarre ef
fects.
It is a foregone conclusion that
you will be wearing slacks during
the active hours of a summer day.
The latest thing is to top your well-
tailored slacks with a blouse made
of cotton or linen print that fairly
dazzles the eye with the daring of
its coloring and patterning. Just
such is the blouse that dramatizes
the slacks costume to the left in the
illustration. It is of a vividly color
ful cotton print that typically ex
presses the mood that prints for play
clothes are in this summer.
A new vogue has sprung up this
season, one that is taking the young
set by storm. It’s the skirt that
is made of print just as gypsylike
in color and motif as you can find.
And be assured you will have no
difficulty in getting these prints bold
in color and daring in patterning.
The prints mostly talked about and
featured for sportswear and casual
dress take their cue from the gay
cottons of native South Sea Islanders,
and from the garish picturesque cot
tons that make a gypsy camp look
like one vast kaleidoscope.
However, do not for a moment
think that these fascinating cotton
prints keep within the confines of
beaches and playgrounds, country
highways and byways. Fact is
for a party frock you will be doing
the fashion-wise thing if you dine
and dance in a gypsy print skirt
full at the waistline and swirling
a many-yard-round floor-length hem
line. Wear with this the daintiest,
most appealingly feminine lace-
trimmed, finely tucked sheer white
batiste blouse you can find in the
shops and behold—your most be
loved party frock!
Note how the fashion-wise maid
en centered in the picture carries
out the idea of a gay print skirt
topped with a contrast blouse. If
you feel the urge for a two-piece that
enters into the spirit of a joyous
summer afternoon, here is the an
swer. In this instance a soft-
throated blouse of dull-surfaced
black silk crepe tops off a flared
short skirt of pink and black print.
The natural waistline is finished with
a sash of the print which ties at
the front, while a touch of the
same fabric relieves the neckline.
Her gay chapeau of pink straw
braid has a rose and a veiling trim.
Informality in dress is the key
note sounded throughout vacation
plots, more so than ever this sum
mer. However, it is a formality
that is utterly sophisticated with a
view to achieving the picturesque.
Famous as a winter resort but
equally as popular with summer va
cationists Sun Valley is becoming a
mecca for fun-loving fashionables.
Here one sees outing apparel that
is the “last word” in chic and
charm. A noteworthy example of
the style that flourishes out in this
rugged Idaho country is the perfect
ly charming costume to the right in
the group pictured. An exception
ally handsome rayon print in steel-
head gray (takes its name from the
steel-head trout that abound in the
area) and challenger white fash
ions the graceful trousers. The
blouse is in chartreuse. It has an
attached hood lined with the gray
and white print which again empha
sizes the outstanding importance of
hoods throughout the entire program
of fashion this summer.

Use Beading
You will need a bodkin this sea
son for the reason that beading,
regular old-fashioned beading like
our grandmothers bought by the
yards and yards is in style again
and only a bodkin can lend first
aid in threading wee baby ribbon
in and out of lengths and lengths of
beading. But it’s worth it, this
tedious task of running ribbons in
and out as shown in the picture.
The dress pictured is of exquisitely
eyelet embroidered sheer.
Long Silk Coats
In Navy or Black
You will find one of the new fash
ionable long softly tailored silk coats
either navy or black a most happy
possession. They are ever so stylish
this summer worn with lingerie
collars and cuffs.
Neat White Prints
With Single Color
You can tell they are new the
moment you see them. It’s this sea
son’s prints that have a white
ground with a colored, rather de
mure little figure, also vice versa
the prints that have backgrounds
in lovely colors with the conven
tional modest patterning either in
white or a contrasting color.
Prints with gray grounds are es
pecially good this season, most often
with white figures or polka dots but
even more effective when motifs in
soft green or yellow are printed on
the gray. Mint green for a back
ground with neat designs ip white
or light beige tells the new print
message and as browns with white
or ivory or henna tones there is no
limit to this color trend in prints.
It is the neat patterned prints of
this character that designers are
making up into redingote and bolero
suits as well as the jacket suits that
have pleated skirts and long torso
lines.
Fishnet Ensemble
Popular on Beach
Fish-net, the good old-fashioned
kind, is a favorite fabric for many
of this season’s beach and play
time accessories. One smart set
shown by a Hollywood designer con
sists of a knotted turban of net and
an enormous net handbag shaped
like a reticule and lined with oiled
silk. The bag is especially good
for the beach, for its oiled silk lining
makes it possible to carry even a
wet bathing suit, towel or cap in it.
There’s a buttoned pocket on one
side for makeup, money and other
incidentals.
SELF-EXAMINATION FOR
MODERN AMERICANS
1— Have you been self-indulgent,
cynical and pleasure-loving for so
many years that you are not sure
whether the national anthem is “The
Star Spangled Banner” or “Roll Out
the Barrel”?
2— Have you yet reached the point
where you can scrap the idea that
your country is a grab bag, a raffle
or a punchboard?
3— Can you examine your con
science critically and deny that you
have regarded life as a merry gam
ble for so long that when anybody
mentions 1776 you instinctively yell
“Bingo!”?
4— Have you permitted yourself to
grow into a mood which made it
easy to define a “minute man” as
somebody who was too slow to put
over a fast one in 45 seconds?
5— Do you ever think of Lexing
ton, Lincoln and Liberty as merely
the names of automobiles?
II
1— Does it shame you to discover
that while you don’t know the words
of “The Star Spangled Banner” you
can repeat the chorus of the latest
suggestive comedy song hit?
2— Have you subscribed to the
idea that a man who works hard
is a sucker and that anybody who
is so interested in his job that he
comes in at 7 and sometimes works
after 6 p. m. should be reported to
the NLRB?
3— Have you ever stopped to ques
tion whether Molly Pitcher or Betsy
Ross would have gotten much fame
today if they had never been known
around the night clubs?
4— Have you ever made any seri
ous protest at the polls against lar
cenous political machines, crooked
politicians, fence straddlers, mud
dle-headed congressmen, cockeyed
demagogues and professional gravy
hunters?
UI
1— Has your general attitude
toward corrupt politicians been,
“Well, they all do it, don’t they?
He’s a swell fellow personally.”
2— Are you as well informed about
the lives of John Davenport, Nathan
Hale, Captain Prescott and the
Green Mountain Boys as you are
about the lives of A1 Capone, Dutch
Schultz, Tommy Manville and the
Reno girls?
3— Can you love “thy rocks and
rills, thy woods and templed hills”
unless you’re in a pleasure car with
somebody footing the bills?
4— Is it your idea that you are
doing your bit for your country
when you pay the cigarette taxes,
take off your hat to the flag and
pay 60 cents to have the radio fixed
so you can hear one-third of a pa
triotic appeal and two-thirds of Fib
ber McGee?
IV
1— Can you read the careers of
Washington, Jefferson, Jackson,
John Paul Jones, Farragut, Perry
and Ethan Allen without ever think
ing, “Who took care of the business
’when they were away?”
2— Have you ever read the Consti
tution with one-fiftieth as much in
terest as you always read a list of
sweepstakes results?
3— Do you still thrill to a Sousa
march or does it take something by
Cole Porter to give you a real lift?
4— Could you ever be a minute
man without first wanting to know
what the pay was per hour?

FIRE-HATING MAYOR
“I hate fires. In spite of what
you have heard, I really hate to go
to them.”—Mayor Fiorello LaGuar-
dia of New York in the magazine
(“Look.”)
Oh, keep my helmet near my desk,
And keep one near my bed—
A fire may break out and it’s
The sort of thing I dread.
My boots, oh, see that they are neaj
Wherever I may be;
I hate to go to every blaze—
How it depresses me!
That siren on my private car—
Please see that it’s in shape,
For I must speed to fires though
I wish I could escape.
Whenever something’s burning let
Me know without delay.
For I must rush straight to it though
I’d rather stay away.
