LINCOLN EVENING JOUKNAL. SATUIJDAY. SEPTEMBER 18, 1937. FIVE SPORTLlGtlT EW The $12,000 golf tournament over the Belmont course at Boston next is one of the few chances offered a star pro to play for fairly important money. As a rule, you'll sec wheic the leading tournament win'ieis of the year- such as Harry Cooper, Ralph Guldahl.

Henry Pirard and a few others-- are collecting from J5.000 to from the prize money in the long list of tournt- men's wheie the winner must beat at least 20 or 30 starts and a large number who are possible stars at a given spot. Against Fred Perry and Ellsworth Vines can make around $75,000 or more a year playing tennis. The mam answer is that only three or four tennis players are ever drawing cards, while the field is packed with crack golfers. Golf is also a hard game to follow, with a five mile cross country jaunt for the 18 holes There are too many different winners in golf thru too many tournaments to hulld enough dramatic moments. So whrn a S12.000 show comes along, with at least $3,000 for the winner, you have worth while.

Three thousand dollars doesn't compare with the cash JOB Louis or Tommy Fan- or Fred Perry gets, but it is a full step above the normal cash to be taken in from golf for any single joust. The time isn't far away when you'll see tournaments played for $15,000, or even S25.000, where the winner will get a much better financial break than he has known before. THE DIFFERENCE. OBBY in 1830, after his grand slam, could have rnacle $100.000 or more from a country wide tour. The answer is that, in 1930, there was only one Bobby Jones golf.

Today, you have Cooper. Guldahl, Horton "smith. Jimmy Thomson, Gene Sarazen, Homy Picard, Walter Hagen, Bel Dudley and a great many more who can play fine golf. 'These will all he at Belmont next week. In the lecent amateur tennis championship, you knew in advance that Donald Budge and Baron Von Cramm would move along tc the final bracket.

But try to name the winner at Belmont --or the first five--or the first ten. Why are golf and tennis form so diffeicnt? Here is one answer. At 72 holes, the winner will take around 285 shots. In a tennis test, Budge may use up 5,000 strokes. Tennis is played in a small, restricted area where every square foot is about the same.

It takes 140 or 150 acres of terrain to handle golf, where the element of luck is terrific--especially around the greens. OF GAMENESS. COMEONE brought up the ques- tion at Forest Hills a few days ago as to whether such games as tennis and golf really call for any courage or gameness--as compared with boxing or football wheio the element of physical punishment enters. There is also such a niRttet nerve ni mental punishment I Fred Thomsen 's Arkansas U. Team Favored Southwest Conference DANA BIBLE'S TEAM AT TEXAS U.

North of this boundary, the stalwart gridmen of the southwest will take on U. C. Manhattan, Ohio State, Fordham, Detroit, Duquesne and Creighton.

Y. Fordharn, Boston college, Manhattan, Princeton, Navy, Temple, Army, Harvard and Catholic U. The individual circuit championships? On paper they loom as the wildest scrambles in their history, brimful of headaches for the coaches and dopesters. In the three major conferences of the south- land, the competition is so keen and the teams so well balanced that almost any member could lead the parade home in each division. There is not at this time, in my opinion, any part of the country in which football strength is aa evenly distributed as in the Southwest and Southeastern conferences.

Meet All Members. Here In the Southwest conference, composed of seven schools, we have an ideal arar.gement, with each team meeting all other six members and the schedules evenly divided as to home and road games. Unquestionably, the defending champion University of Arkansas Razorbacks and the Texas Aggies rate the call on paper. Both had fine teams last year and suffered few losses. The Porkers still have their 1936 offense, with Jack Robbins, one of the finest passers and field generals in the country, Sloan and Rawlins in the backfield and those sensational pass snatching Hamilton and Benton.

Coach Thomsen has some good material corning up to fill the few slots that need plugging. Arkansas Biff Husker Grid Team Facing Slate Drawn With Box Office Cravou Believe Usual Letdown Not to Follow Nebraska's Coaching Change. BY I MARTIN. Associated Press Writer.

John Richartison at the other end is a comparative Lilliput at 179 pounds. The guards aren't so big, but they have necessary speed. Bob Mehring weighs only 167, and Lowell English 188.

The problem is the backfield, where three regulars are missing. Johnny Ho well, a good quarterback, is the only man returning: from that yard eating quartet of 1936. The backs will be fast, but lack the sheer power, as well as the experience, of last years' ball toters The present first string backs are Howell, Jack Dodd, Harris Andrews and Eldon Mcllravy, a 178 pound sophomore who must hop into Sam Francis' shoes. Backs Hard Workers. "They are fine boys and hard workers, but I don't know what they will do under fire," Jones says.

"Mcllravy, I think, will be a fine defensive player. Dodd and Andrews both are fast. Andrews can kick and pass, and Dodd, a southpaw, also can pass a little. "They aren't big men, like Cardwell and Francis, but their quick reactions may make up for lack of height on pass defense." The Biffer sees no soft spots on the schedule and in the Big; Six has more than usual respect for Missouri and Oklahoma, the school he coached last year. "Don't sell Oklahoma short," he warns.

"They have a spraddle legged sophomore named Red McCarthy who is a whizz." As for Minnesota, Pittsburgh, Indiana and the rest, Jones just shrugs, which may mean anything, but he will admit one thing. His Husker may lose, but they'll be in there pitching. It's that kind of a school. lleds' Pilot Runs: J. Moore.
