By PAT WARD-THOMAS S. Jnoes tnford AO, ec. Herriott overtakes Texereau at the last water jump and goes on steeplechase at the White City Although the woinsii golfers of the United States gained their expected victory in tho Curtis Cup match at Porthcawl, by 9-6, with three matches halved, the British gave an admirable account of themselves in one of the most entertaining, colourful and exciting day's golf there has ever been in contests with Americans. The reasons for defeat were not hard to determine. In any prolonged examination technique, temperament and stamina the best equipped side invariably prevail.

These assets did not finally manifest themselves until late in the glorious September afternoon, when Britain still nad every hope of victory. Then the strong American tail. Miss "White, Miss Sorenson and Miss Conley took command, and the evidence of greater strength in depth were there for all to see, as well as the soundness of method that sustains the golfer in moments of crisis. Faulty tactics The British did not make the most of their resources. That Miss Vaughan and Miss Armitage did not play in the singles was wrong.

Miss Vaughan together with Miss Porter, played heroically in both foursomes, and putted as well as anyone in the match. She and Miss Porter kept Britain on even terms at lunch with a perfect saving four on the last hole of the final foursomes. There may have been a reason for Miss Vaughan resting thereafter, but the omission of Miss Armitage can hardly be justified! As on Friday, Miss Armitage was the stronger link in her foursomes, and played some splendid shots towards the end of an unavailing attempt to save the game. Moreover, she had the strength, lacking in other members of the team by comparison with the Americans, and also great potential. Mrs Bonallnck should not have played high in the singles on Friday.

This probably cost Britain dearly. Otherwise Miss Corlett did a splendid job in bringing her side to the fray in the best possible heart. The abiding skill and sustained courage of Mrs Spearman will live as the supreme memory of the match. Few British players in vulnerable Miss Preuss, and gave the British cause tremendous encouragement. Mrs Spearman was then called upon to meet the American champion on Friday, and on the last afternoon to oppose unquestionably the finest amateur player in the world.

She halved with both, and her name must shine in the scrolls of women's golf for evermore. Her match with Miss Gunderson was unforgettable. The strict par for the first 11 holes was 42 their best ball was 37, at which point Miss Gunderson was one up. Thereafter, four holes were exchanged, Mrs Spearman having holed from five yards to halve the fourteenth. Miss Gunderson was a little fortunate to win the sixteenth, and became dormy one.

Her last enormous drive was some 50 yards past that of Mrs Spearman, who played a perfect long pitch and run down to within nine feet from the hole. Miss Gunderson followed to eight feet, then Mrs Spearman holed, and bless them, they laughed at each other. Such was the spirit of the match. The American's putt for victory licked the hole, and a magnificent contest was halved as by every possible right it deserved to be. Meanwhile the British cause was being bravely sustained elsewhere, although not at such a supreme pitch.

Miss Greenhalgh has uncommon determination, and a rare touch in the short game, that were reveal. whenever' she was in any trouble against Miss Preuss. Gradually, calmly she took control, and that was the first of the three points Britain needed. Where to seek the others Very weary Miss Lawrence, for all her spirit, was never likely to beat Miss Mclntire, and Mrs Bonallack, now rightly lower in the order, was unfortunate in having to face the strength and resolution of Miss White when she was very weary. And so the last hopes rested upon Miss Jackson, one up and three to play, and Miss Porter, who had turned one up.

Miss Jackson should not have lost Detail can be spared, but she erred on the last three holes. However, little Miss Conley played the sixteenth and seventeenth with remarkable poise in perfect figures, although the weight of the world was on her shoulders. She is surely a great player in the making. Meanwhile, Miss Sorenson had come swiftly from the turn in 3, 2, 5 Miss Porter, who had done all tat could be expected of her hitherto, suddenly was struggling, and, as certainly victory for Britain was a dream once more. 1 uu luc iuu meti at ueu is included in the 4 400 metres relay, and Miss Packer in the 800 metres.

These three are already in other events. The division of opinion over the relay team is understandable. for the women already have six going or the sprints and relay. With D. H.

Jones injured, pre- sumably Radford, Jones, and Meakin would have gone to join Davies and Campbell, but none of the first three'have achieved the OlvmDic standard for the individual events. The selectors are not prepared to take the risk of sending a team that might go out in the first round. A suggestion that Miss Hyman should be withdrawn because of her form at the weekend was blocked by Miss M. Hartman's counter that she would resign as team manager if the selectors made such a decision. Lead maintained Britain held the lead of eight points gained on Friday night in beating France 110-102, but the victory did not come altogether in the way one had anticipated.

Out of character, the old war horse became boxed in on the last bend of the 1,500 metres tut still got through to third place while McKim ran on to Olympic selection.

B.

S. Tulloh's defeat at the White City on Saturday was a twofold tragedy. It ended his hopes of Olympic selection, and it was the final condemnation of the British Amateur Athletic Board's ill-conceived ideas of how an athlete should prove his fitness, writes John Rodda. Tulloh's bare feet padded not the red shale of the track surface, but the fakir's spiked bed which the Board awarded him when he was omitted from the original Olympic selections on August 16. Since then he nas undergone and failed to survive mental tension and torture that might have been designed to test resources for espionage, but hardly link with proving athletic talent.

Saturday's lonely run was the final perversion. Outwardly It looked like a complete failure of a runner in fact it was the evidence of an administration unable to cope with something outside the rigid policy that all athletes must be absolutely fit when they leave for Toklo. Over four years Tulloh has moulded himself as a potential Olvmplc medal winner: European o.uuu metres cnampiuu, twice iw three miles champion, United Kingdom record holder at the distance, winner of an international 5,000 metres in Toklo a year ago. Attack of measles In the middle of this season came a set-back, an attack of measles, which often is a serious illness in an adult He mustered his strength and was the first Englishman home in the. AAA championship; but the yawning gap in his training programme was clearly to have repercussions.

Had there been a doctor with knowledge of athletics and athletes on the selection committee he could have examined Tulloh and advised a long rest from competition. No such system exists in British athletics. Tulloh, having drooned out of one three-miles race, was advised by the team manager, who has a voice but no vote In selection, to miss the next three-mile run, but Tulloh doubted how the selection committee would interpret such passive action, and decided to run. Again he dropped out The clouds, which had been slowly turning grey, went black when the Olympic selections were announced with Tulloh's name missing, only one place left 'n the 5,000 metres, and M. E.

Wiggs as a contender. The torment was on, and Tulloh's frail frame, which has stood the heat and pain of so many track struggles, buckled as he trailed home last on Saturday. The bed of torture has been passed to three other British athletes. Milter. Llndsav.

nod T. Graham. They have been asked to prove their fitness by competing this weekend. Does this mean that Miller has to high jump 6ft 8in. or 6ft What time over 400 metres is require 1 from Graham? And how far must the right arm of Lindsay thrust the shot? The tension in the Tulloh home at Wargrave thankfully bas gone.

He intends to carry on running. Perhaps, when finally he tires, he will develop his ability as an administrator reach high office, and see that the fakir's bed is locked away as a museum piece, tt eruesome reminder of a misguided era in British athletics, Poland have fastest relay team Poland's national team set a world record for the women's 4 100 metres relay with a time of 44.2sec. when running against West Germany in Lodz yesterday.

I watched the North End players go into their dressing-room at the end of the game and from the expression on their faces it was obvious that even then they could hardly believe they had been beaten by such an emphatic margin as four goals. But they had been, and there was no fluke about Bolton's success.

The second goal would also have been scored in open play but for the award of a penalty corner against the Germans as Cadman was on the point of shooting. He did shoot, and the shot went home. It could be argued that the whistle caused the German goalkeeper, Winkler, to lower his guard but it was the sort of shot that one expects to bore its way under any guard. Justice was done, Corby scoring from the penalty corner after some moments of extreme tension caused by premature breaking by the German defenders across the goal line. The British defence conceded more penalty corners than was good for the nerves of their supporters, but they refused to be drawn by the elaborate short passing of the Gorman forwards, and mostly succeeded In isolating the man with the ball before committing themselves to a tackle.

Quickness of foot NeiU's reach and strength of wrist, and Wilman's quckness of foot and resolution kept the German inside forwards, Schuler and F. Krauss. on a short rein, so that Keller in the centre bad few chances. Cahill again kept goal bravely and well for Britain. The two shots that beat him were both from, or following, corners.

The first, a volley by Schuler. came from a reverse-stick centre by End. There was no saving that one. The second was scored by Keller direct from a penalty corner. The strength of the Germans la.v in their mastery of the basic skills, stopping, hitting, and close control, in the subtle manoeuvres of players when not themselves in possession of the ball, and.

in the speed of their two lull bicks, G. Krauss and Aichlnger. In a chase, none of the British forwards could make any impression on them. GREAT BBTTATK. CaiTH; 1.

Wttiinff ton 3 Weekend Association Footbolt MANCHESTER UNITED START WELL By Brian Crowther Manchester United, having established their right to victory before the interval, played no better than they needed to in the second half at Old Trafford on Saturday when they defeated Nottingham Forest 34) and so ended, at least for the present, talk of championship honours for their visitors. In the first half. United demonstrated the great variety that is possible in setting up a goal. They swept the ball upfield with long passes, employing the least necessary effort, or they passed it squarely and ran vigorously to meet it in the open spaces.

They turned in circles tight or wide, took headers, snap shots, and hard drives and yet scored only three goals. Their falling away In the second half, a slide that was never allowed to become precipitous, seemed to spring more from an unwillingness to do the work of goalscorlng than from any sapping of energy. Whether this was contrived or not, it made for halves of a widely differing type and the spectators made it clear which they preferred. Early error United soon forced Forest's defence into error. Mochan, attempUng to clear the ball, put it to Connelly who lobbed it upfield to Stiles, Law's deputy.

Stiles, cutting in from the right, shot on the run and Grummitt, falling, could only help the ball on its way across the face of the goal. Herd bounded forward and drove it into the roof of the net. Only two minutes had passed and United were not only a goal ahead but they had discovered that the Forest defence was prone to panic under pressure. No one was able to exploit this better than Connelly, who remains of England class. Best who gets rather more appreciation than he earns, was little behind Connelly in skill though he is as yet too frail consistently to get the better of First Division hacks.

Charlton nt inside right, passed the ball well in mis nan and put in some testing shots; Herd's mobility was a welcome revelation; Stiles seemed to be enjoying himself and to this happy attack Crerand was supplying graceful passes. Forest had little comparable to offer in reply. United added to their lead in the seventeenth minute through Connelly. Setters sent the ball downficld and as it passed over McKinlay's head Forest's centre half, evidently anticipating trouble, apparently tried to stop the bal! with a hand. He failed and Herd collected it, putting out a good pass to Connelly.

The outside right half turned away from goal as if about to pass and then turned suddenly back, driving the ball out of Grummitt's reach with his left foot Herd made it 3-0 in the twenty-third minute when he ran on to Stiles's through pass and raced down the centre of the field just keeping ahead of McKinlay. With neither room nor time to make a proper backswing Herd still managed to get sufficient force behind his shot to beat Grummitt Five minutes before the interval Herd hit Forest's crossbar after good work by Best Only the best will do United's supporters know well that sluggishness that can come over a game after a lively first half. Not that it is unfamiliar on other grounds but at Old Trafford, where the best is so often seen and always demanded, the feeling is the more keen. But Forest were unable to take advantage, not least because Addison injured his right leg the fifty-eighth minute alter a neavy tacKie oy setters. Although he could not always keep up with forwards Addison did manage a couple of stood shots which was more than could be said for most of the others.

Ilinton contrived to be very active without being dangerous, and three minutes from time Barnwell made his only memorable contribution, a first-time shot which was well taken on the chest by P. Dunne. Almost on time J. Wilson in attempting to put the ball over the dead-bail line when harrassed by Best hit the woodwork of his own goal. MANCHESTER UNITED.

The League will not accept the registration of these men for any other league club unless their own clubs consent to a transfer, and this means that if the players decline to accept the terms offered to them or are not normally transferred they cannot continue to play in League football. They can.

of course, go on ploying for their present clubs on monthly contracts. H. M. England, of Blackburn Rovers, one of the players involved, still insists on moving and says that he will carry on his fight even if it means taking the case to independent arbitration of a civil court The Professional Footballers' Association to discuss the latest development but Mr C. Lloyd, the secretary, says nothing can be done until the end of the month.

The management committee has ruled against the player in more than half of the appeals considered. The League yesterday informed the following players and their clubs that, after taking into consideration all the facts the managment committee had decided that, while it could not compel a player lo sign a contract for any club, the waccs offered were fair and reasonable and, therefore, it could not accept a registration for any other League club without the consent of the player's present club Ft.

It is possible tnat some oi tne auierences between club and player will be settled by then. If not, it would be up to the player to approach us.

I cannot say at the moment what action we would take. There Is no question of a further appeal by the player to any other body. It would be at least two years before a dispute could go to the independent tribunal after a player has signed a one-year contract and the period of another year for the option has expired."

Their splendid, assured par golf outplayed Miss Mclntire and the Bousfield and Caygill win by, two strokes By a Special Correspondent Two rounds of 70 and 75 on the final day enabled K. Bousfield (Coombe Hill) and G. A. Caygill (Pannal), the Yorkshire professional champion, to win Sir Stuart Goodwin's Ryder Cup Reunion foursomes tournament at Hallamshire. Their total of 292 for the 72 holes gave them victory by two strokes over three other couples, among them the third round leaders, B.

J. Hunt (Hartsborne) and D. Snell (Worksop). In contrast to Friday, when a stiff, chill wind swept the Hallamshire course, the weather was warm and calm on Saturday. Bousfield and Caygill.

who formed an admirable partnership, played excellent golf all day and might have won more readily but for lapses over the final hole. In the morning they reached the turn in a brilliant 32, but dropped strokes to par at four of the last six holes. In the afternoon they gave their challengers a final chance to catch them by taking a seven at the last hole, where Caygill put a shot into the car park ana out of bounds Hunt and Snell, who were leading by one stroke after a third round of 70, lost their previously deadly putting touch and ran up 78 in the afternoon. D. J.

E. Wesley and J. L. Youdale, winners in 1959, took the final in their stride at Wilmslow yesterday, beating T. P.

D. Taylor and N. C. McLean (Prestbury) 3 and 2 without being pressed. They had, however, survived under strain in the morning when they were taken to the twentieth winning their semifinal against A.

J. Clifle and D. McLeod (Prenton) this after the Upton players had been one down going to the eighteenth where they got a four to square and Prenton just missed the half they needed to win. The final was uneventful with Wesley and Youdale playing just as weil as the occasion demanded. They were infinitely better from the tee but gave their opponents hope with one or two wayward shots to the greens, notably at the first and eighth.

They were allowed to win the first after a splendid bunker shot by Youdale, Prestbury taking three putts, and Taylor missed a holeable putt on the eighth which left him two down. Wesley played Upton's bunker shot at this hole six feet from the Dag. and Youdale holed the putt Taylor also erred at the short ninth where he only just cleared the brook, and the Prestbury pair could not get their half because McLean overshot the Bag. So Upton turned three up and a series of halves neither could do better than a four at the fourteenth (par three) saw Wesley and Youdale home comfortable winners, a happier climax to thtiir UTovts than a year ago when they were beaten in the final on their home course.
