Last year, a width of fifty yards was u.sed but because of the funny tricks which a breeze does to the new ball, ten more yards have been added. This form of competition is interesting and open to every golfer in Lincoln. Every once in awhile soma player who struggles to break 100 gets hold of a tee shot that zooms out into the atmosphere leaving the hitter tingling at every pore, if it is possible to tingle at a pore. At any rate those who get into this competition will have a lot of fun and the winners at the various clubs along with the grand champion will receive worthwhile prizes. CORNER MARKET.

SENIOR. There is a general misunderstanding about the senior and junior A. A. U. divisions.

The names, as Burks Harley insists, are misnomers. pressed for better ones he couldn think of any. however. The thing that throws most people off the track is that age has nothing to do with eligibility to compete In the either of the two divisions. It is all based on passed performances.

In the first place, an event winner of the I. C. 4A. the Na- tlonal Collegiates. the Big Ten or i the Pacific coast conferences is automatically a senior contestant in the A.

A. U. in the event which he won. The A. A.

U. championships are divided Into five classes: Running, jumping, hurdling, walking and throwing. An event winner is to compete in any of the classifications, other than one in which he won. This is the way it works out: Hugh Rhea of Nebraska won the junior A. A.

U. shot put title at Pittsburgh last year. Therefore he is ineligible to compete in any of the junior events, such as the shot, javelin, discus, etc. However, if he cared to, Hugh could enter the junior high hurdles or the 100-yard dash, because those events are listed in the classification. hold the breath, tho, until Hugh runs the junior or tries the high hurdles.

He finished second to the fleet Wykoff in the recent 100-yard sprint at lx)S Angeles and returned later in the evening to ccp the 220-yard event. Bob Kelly, another member of the team, was a hop, step and jumper on the 1928 Olympic team, while Kim Dyer, a former I. C.

4-A sprint champion, and Les Hables, Stanford runner who was second to Tolen in the 1931 1. C. 4-A meet are also on the Locey squad. Walter Marty, the leading high jumper on the coast roster, was the national junior title winner la.st year with a leap of better than six feet four inches, Harry Carter holds the national junior steeplechase title and record and is coming to Lincoln intent on beating Joe McCluskey for the senior honors. Junior Title.

George Martin, a broad jumper w'ith the Olympic club, won the 192Q junior title in his event, while Kas'Ler, a hurdler, was second in the senior highs last year. There is libetal sprinkling of college talent on the Fri.sco team. In addition to Churchill and Hables, there is DeGroot, w'ho scored in the pole vault at Philadelphia; Laboide, who placed in the shot and discus, and Bob Jones who won the I.

When of the world gather here next year to compete in the tenth Olvmpiad, they will participate in 135 distinct programs in fifteen branches of sport, it was learned when the official program for the international event was announced. The tenth Olympiad will extend from July 30 to Aug. 14.

Some 2,000 athletes of both repre-senting thirty-five nations, will gather in Olympic stadium on the opening afternoon. National flags will unfurl. The contingents will march pa.st the tribune of honor, and one athlete will step from the drawn-up ranks to take the Olympic oath of sportsmanship for all contestants. Thirty Miles Apart.

The size of the program was hard to comprehend until officials pointed out that many events would be held simultaneously thirty miles apart. The winter sports events will not be held in Southern California, being assigned to Lake Placid, New York. But Olympic stadium, which seats 125,000 persons, will be the scene of track and field athletics, gymnastics, field hockey, e.squestr- ian jumping and demonstrations of national and international sports. Olympic auditorium, seating 10,400 persons, will be the center of boxing, wrestling and weight lifting events, starting Aug. 9.

She finds that the average par round requires fourteen drives and thirty-six putts. That leaves thirty-two strokes with other clubs if par is to be secured by her sex.

However, those fourteen drives are extremely important. They must be placed not only on the fairway, but in position for the second shot, whether it be with wood or iron. Placing a drive, according to Collett, is a matter of considering the entrance to the hole. If the green is trapped severely on the right, drive down the left side of the fairway. Leona ideas about the drive.

are only four of said Loughran. other three are Jack Sharkey, Max Schmeling and Willie is the toughest of the is a matter of said Tommy. is, literally speaking, the toughest. He is a rugged fellow with a corking punch. But, on account of our styles of fighting.

I think he would be the easiest of the three for me to beat. By saying that. I do not mean to take anything away from Max. He is probably the smartest ring man of the three, but he hasn't had the experience of the other two. 1 believe that I could make him fight my style of fight.

the other hand, and again because of styles. I think Schmeling will beat Stribling. He is just the type of fighter to give Stribling trouble. Any crowding fighter, with a good, hard, short, straight punch, can bother i ling. Schmeling will be on top of him all the time and Schmeling is a fine body puncher.

A Long Puncher. is a straight puncher, too, except that he loops his right, but he is what I call a long puncher. I think Schnieling will him and beat him. JCtxy time you meet Schmeling in a fifteen-round bout, you have to fight the entire fifteen rounds. He will never stand off and give you a breathing space.

I think Schmeling would be the easiest of the lot for me, and in spite of the fact that I think he will win in Cleveland, Stribling would be the hardest man for me to beat. A question of styles again. Stribling is the type of fighter who gives me trouble. Sharkey might be tough for the first five or six rounds, but after that I think I could handle him fairly easily. He would not hit me again with one lucky said Loughran, a mighty good fighter and a dangerous fighter.

He hit me plenty with one right to the jaw. I could feel my knees give, but I managed to get in close. Then he chopped me on the back of the head and, queerly enough, that punch cleared my brain again. If Campolo had smart handling, he would be as formidable a fighter as any of them. He is strong and he can In spite of his size, none of these leading heavyweights appear to consider Campolo extremely dangerous.

At least, they all seem willing to fight but the Garden is not willing to let them. Here Is a funny situatiqn from a boxing standpoint. Camera will be considered the logical contender and matched with the winner of the Schmeling-Stribling bout; yet the Illinois Garden cor- Orv Mohler, star University of Southern California quarterback and shortstop, will pilot a boat at Santa Catalina island this summer.

All that he needs is the temperament to face one or twoo- bad mistakes, steady down, think things over, and forget about it. I recall one big stretch at the national links where he started 4-34-S-4-3.

He had two fine shots at the seventh hole. His third ran into hard luck. And then he finished 8-7-6. He let one had break kill his chance. Sarazen has everything needed to win an opea.

He has the game, the stamina and the heart. He merely needs a trifle more control over himself after a short putt or running into some rasping trouble. i He must learn to face misfortune with a greater show of fortitude. If he does this he will be one of the hardest men in the field to atop. He can hit the ball straight and i far, he is a fine iron player and he is willing to take his chance at any oioohino- time You won't find him steering and Inverness for he is a slashing, the ball in a pinch.
