►Missouri Hails
Sports Record
of Six Kellers
All But One in Family of
Seven Big Boys
Went to “Old
Mizzou.”
Kansas City, B'eb. 2.—Youth who
Iddlize their big brothers might pause
in their songs of praise a moment
and lake an earful about the Keller
boys,
Tliern are no littIn Kellers to (lo
any boasting, as six of (lie seven
boys who completed courses at fhe
l Diversity of Missouri are six feet
tall or taller, and each lipped the
scales at 20(1 pounds or more.
The six boys who attended the Mis
souri university have occupied promi
nent niches in the Rthletio hall of
fame, and the school's records In
football, baseball and basket ball and
campus activities would be far from
completed with out the name of
Keller.
All of the student Kellers worked
their way through college. Their an
-eeslry Is a mixture of English,
Hootch, Irish, Welsh and German.
They wore horn and roared on a farm
near Jonesboro, Ark.
The eldest brother, Daniel S., can
not tell any talcs of when he was
tjynrf,*r allilele at "Old Mlizon,” as
f"1 unfortunately Daniel did not at
tend the university. lie can. how
ever, boast of five children at 01
woll, Arlt., where he is postmaster.
As sidelines, lie runs a store and a
rich plantation.
Of the six students there Is Fred
Keller, B. A.. B. J.. Ph. M., Fh. D., at
present head of the department of
Education in the Northwest Missouri
State Teachers’ college at Maryville.
Mo. While at university he was yell
leader, center on the fnotbal squad
for two years, member of baseball and
basket ball squads and editor of the
college paper.
f’red also-attended Washington and
Kee university, Arkansas university
end New York university, and in each
was en outstanding orator. In the
last year he Iras delivered TO lec
tures outside of his teaching, gave 11
high school commencement addresses
and had 25 calls ha was forced to
refuse.
Clifton, another brother, ramn to
Missouri after he had been chosen
for ail-state position in football,
baseball and basket hall when he
played ’p these sports at the State
Agrictiniiral school at Jonesboro. He
suffered a broken leg while on the
freshman football team and was
kept out of Missouri athletics until
spring of his senior year when he
won his baseball letter.
E. Roy also had an athletic record
before ha entered Missouri. While at
Jonesboro he played left tackle on
the football team, outfield In baseball
and forward on the state champion
ship basket ball team.
Ralph, the youngest, was the real
51'js ron star. Hike his other broth
ers, he brought with him an athletic
record when he entered Missouri, hav
ing been a football star and captain
of the basket ball team at Jonesboro.
He has just finished his work at
Columbia and takes away with him
three "M’s” for football work to add
to the family collection.
Gordon Keller's name Is men
tioned more oflen among students
and devotees of art than it is by
followers of athletics. Gordon fiii
islies this year with an A. B.. de
gree. While attending university lie
lias been active in the Christian Stu
dent congregation and the Athen
ean Debating society, aside front
his school work.
The record of Paul reads (lie least
of all. Ho finished his high school
work at the State Agricultural
school at Jonesboro In 1919, entered
at Columbia the following fall and
was graduated from the College of
Agriculture in the spring of 19?;.
But they were Kellers all, and all
Missouri knows the name of Keller1
and all they have done In the name
of Missouri.

By GRANTIANU RICK,
IN I/POKING back over a yenr of
great competitive golf, the great
est year we have ever followed,
there were two outstanding achieve
ments of continued brilliancy that
should lead the list.
In this connection one sprig of
the laurel belongs to .Max .'Marston,
the amateur champion.
The other goes to Gene Sarazen. the
professional champion, and in award
ing these two chaplets of renown we
believe we can prove our case.
THE first sensational achievement
fell to the lot of Max Marston
In his battle with Bobby Jones
over tlie 6,700-yard Klossmoor course,
a long, hard course softened by re
cent rains, where no great run fol
lowed any carry. In this match with
Eobby Jones Marston stood 4 down
on the seventeenth tee of the morning
round. Ho was 4 down largely be
cause Jones had gone out in 34 and
was 4 under par just at this spot.
Then, starting from the seventeenth
lee in the jnomlng to the seventeenth
green in the afternoon, a matter of
nineteen consecutive holes, Marston
had six birdies and thirteen pars—
one of the most remorseless, one of
the most relentless and one of the
most brilliant marches ever made in
any championship. Nineteen consecu
tive holes without going over par,
nineteen holes in which he stood 6
up on par, and by the same taken 6
up on Jones, who had seen his four
hole lead wiped away and impending
victory changed to certain defeat.
Here was one of the finest stretches
of golf, considering all conditions,
that we have ever seen. And on the
final hole Marston had to sink a
downhill 12-foot putt to get another
birdie and end the match. Jones, who
stood 4 up on the seventeenth tee,
had no thought that any such offen
sive was about to. bo launched against
him. He had played great golf to win
this advantage and there seemed to
he an air about him that he was now
due for a brief rest beforo lunch. He
get his par 5s on the next two holes—
470 and 495 yards—but they were not
enough. Still, he had turned 2 up for
the final test when Marston picked up
just where he had left off by hitting
almost every type of shot straight
for the pin, and then using his put
ter without a mistake.
THE laurel sprig must be awarded
to Gene Sarazen for his play at
the eighteenth hole at Pelham,
in the P. G. A. championship. Pel
ham, like Klossmoor, Is another
course that call* for the power and
control of wood. This eighteenth hole
at Pelham is 27'4 yards In length. The
tee is elevated, there is a narrow, bil
lowy valley on beyond, and then a
narrow turtle-hack, opening to the
green, which rests In a punch bowl
effect on beyond. In the first place,
it takes some hitting to reach a green
274 yards aw"ky. In the second place,
it takes abnormal control to maintain
direction where a slight hook or a
slight slice means a drift to the
right or left of a, narrow entrance.
There was only one way to come to
this green, and that was through a
long, fairly low flying ball, striking
almost the center of the narrow ap
proach. Sarazen in his different
matches came to the eighteenth tee
Just ten times. And just ten times in
succession he planted the ball on the
green, 274 yards away. Here are
power and accuracy ami consistency
almost beyond belief. The best of the
hitters were reaching this green oc
casionally. Almost no one was reach
ing it twice in succession. But Sara
zen planted the white missile there
ten times funning, and if this doesn’t
cult for a laurel sprig, we don’t know'
just what does. He had two 3s there
against Jim Barnes in a 36-hole test,
and then just beat "I/ong'’ Jim 1 up.
He reached the green both times
against Walter Hagen, and then had
to go to tho thirty-eighth hole to win.
in two matches he came to tho eight
eenth tee In the afternoon well worn
down. He was quite tired out against
Barnes and Hagen, both of whom had
launched brilliant finishes to cut
down his lead. Yet even linder these
conditions he persisted Jn • hammer
ing the ball home.
GOLF greatness is not a matter
of one or two great Rliots. It is
largely a matter of brilliancy
and consistency combined—of many
great shots linked together. There
were no spectacular strokes by either
to match the two hair raising Iron
shots of Cruickshank and Jones to
the eighteenth green at Inwood,
where one Bobby got his tie and the
other a day later got his victory.
Those remain as the single classics
of the year. But In the deeds of Mars
ton and Sarazen there was a continu
ity of greatness, and most of it under
dire stress. The march of one lasted
for nineteen holes. The record of the
other embraced ten trials strung out
through six days of play. The*e arc
the achievements that must take rank
over all others in the book that goes
to the dust of the records as a new
year rolls along.

Collegiate Tank
Stars to Compete!
New York, Fell. 2.—Columbia, Yale,
or the naval academy will be the
scene of the first representative na
tionnl swimming championship meet
in the history of college aquatic
sport this spring. Recording to an
official statement made by Frank ,T.
Sullivan, coach of the Princeton
swimming team and member of
the advisory committee of the Na
tional Collegiate Swimming associa
tion.
The decision to hold a national
titlo meet was reached at the con
vention of the National Collegiate
Athletic association, held recently tn
Atlanta, (!». The date set for the
rtieet is about April 5.
“This is tlio first college swimming
meet,” said Coach Sullivan, "which
can decide individual championships
lieyond dispute. In the past there
haxe been sectional meets held and
titles awarded by the Intercollegiate
Swimming association in the east,
the western conference, in the middle
west and by tlie Pacific Coast Swim
ming association, but none of these
have been truly national titles.
“With the assurance that Iceland
Stanford will send a team to com
pete from the Pacific coast, and wl'h
tiie tentative date of the meet im
mediately following the intercolleg
iate championships, there is every
reason to believe that the galaxy of
swimming stars who participate In
the first notional championship will
eclipse every field In the history of
collegiate competition and excep
tional performance should rule.”
Curley to Stage
Wrestling Bouts
New York, Feb. 2.—The license
rrmimittpo of the Mate athletic com
mission has granted a permit to Jack
Ourlpy to conduct wrestling bouts In
the 71st Regiment armory, as was
once his wont.
Curley was formerly the czar of
the grappling habit and his bouts
were the talk of the country when
the state athletic commission, tinder
William Muldoon, barred most of the
spectacular holds that really had been
the magnpt that drew great crowds
to the Curley shows.
They were holds that were used
for punishing purposes exclusively,
which included the scissors, toe and
headloclc holds. The commission
ruled that flying and rolling falls
were to count and this caused s great
deal of confusion and dissatisfaction
when those close up to the ring did
not see or understand the ruling of
referees who judged falls along those
lines.
Then Curley was denied a license
to hold wrestling shows and has been
practically out of the grappling game
until he recth ed hia license about 10
days ago. It Is believed that the
ruling of the commission against
headlocks, etc., will still remain in
force and that Curley has agreed to
obey It. However, Curley Is a live
wire and he will doubtless get up
some lively matches.
Tech Leads Links
When Lights Go Out
Lincoln. Feb. 2.—Perhaps It was s
lucky break for Lincoln High that
the city power plant experienced
trouble last night, aaid trouble caus
ing the lights in the Wbltter gym
nasium to go out and remain out
for a considerable length of time.
Two minutes before the close of the
first half of the Tech Lincoln basket
ball game the Techsfers were leading,
10 to s. The Omahans were showing
up well and causing the Links plenty
of trouble In ail departments of the
game.
When the lights went out the
Fame, of course, stopped, but when
minutes had elapsed Referee Rus
sell decid' d no contest and everybody
went home.
The score follows:

It Is understood that Barrow plans

that the trio of Yankees In question

Navv Crew Not to
Compete in I. R. A.
Nrxv York, !■>!;. 2. The new
schedule of Hie Navy crew at An
napolis has met somewhat with dis
appointment, but that could not be
avoided. It seems that the Annapolis
Midshipmen crew will not be entered
in the annual Intercollegiate regatta
at Poughkeepsie this year.
Thus is broken a highly interesting
series of rowing contests, in which
Navy crews have won great credit
and fame. l,ast year tlie Navy crow
was defeated by the speedy boat from
Washington, and that Is one of ttie
reasons why Navy oarsmen would
have liked to have participated in an
other tnatch race.
An unavoidable conflict in dates
made it impossible for the Navy new
to race tn the Olympic tryouts at
Philadelphia on .tune 13, and in the
intercollegiate regatta at Pough
kcepsie a few days later, 'it had to
he one or I lie other, and the officials
chose the Olympic tests in the hope
that a Navy crew might repeat the
great triumph won by the American
Navy eight at Brussels four years
ago.
Whether the announcement that
the Navy varsity crew Is to row in
the Olympic tryouts moans that the
plan is to get together a crew of
Navy graduates for that competition
under tlie tutelage of their old coach,
the elder Oieudon, lias not yet hec n
definitely decided, as far as known
the pirn has not been abandoned and
is being pressed with vigor by old
time Annapolis oarsmen who think
there never »a« a crew like the com
bination of 1920.
On tile whole, the Navy schedule
is a fascinating one. The first race
comes April 2fi, against Massachusetts
Institute of Technology crews. Then
comes a race with Princeton May 3.
and tile usual meeting with Syracuse
May 24. The American Henley is to
be entered May 31 and the last rare
is th" Olympic lest. June 13.
