American expert from the Smoky
City will have to travel there.
Layton Steady Player.
Lay ton on hit past performances
rates as one of the greatest angle
players in the history of the game.
He is steadier than the brilliant Mr
Court, and this quality is a big factor
in the three nights' play, the goal be
ing 180 points.
McCourt and Layton are both
graduates 1 of the pocket billiard
ia.k, and, before taking seriously to
the three-cushion game the Solatia
expert had won the national cham
pionship. Competing against the line
field which assembled at Chicago in
1916 to compete for the pocket cham
pionship, Layton finished second to
William E. Blankenship, and in the
first challenge match defeated the
latter, 450 to 341. Then Layton lost
to Frank Taherski, in a memorable
match at Srdalia, in which Frank
scorrd 267 halls the final night to 137
by" John. They had flower ready to
present to Layton, but Taberski got

: History of the Title.
''In 'this same year McCourt won
the three-cushion title from Charley
Ellis, 130 to 149.v but lost to Hugh
Heal in September. In January.
1917, McCourt again became cham
pion by defeating George Moore, but
later lost to Bob Cannefaft. -
'Layton in the meantime was gain
m'tr skill at three cushions, and in
1920, at Chicago, he defeated Cannc- j
tax, Jackson and Kieckheter in the
final for the title, which under the
rules he held for a year. Last Oc
tober at Pittsburgh. Kieckhefer of
Chicago won the tournament, Lay
tan and Alfredo de Oro tying for
second place. Layton had the right
tq challenge first and defeated
Kieckhefer, 180 to 171. at Chicago.
Lftst February he defeated De Oro.'
180 to 135, at Milwaukee, and a
Pierre Maupome did not exercise his
right to challenge,- McCourt is next
in line. -
. Layton a Real Chamo.
Layton has all the qualifications
which go to make a champion, and
blessed with a rugged constitu
tion. He was a fine ball player and
at one time managed the Sedalia
team. . He loves the outdoors and
spends one or two weeks each year
hunting or motor boating.
In billiards he was a "solid" stroke,
and is peculiarly adapted to three
cushions. With him the ganieis to
large extent a mechanical science.
j nearly every shot is '"figured,"
and after he has made hi calculation
iiito where to hit the first cushion
if is. largely a matter of accuracy in
hitting the desired spot.' As soon as
tlvs is accomplished John knows he
W.ill come, close to making the shot.
j McCourt, too. plays by system, but
he is an impetuous player, who fig
ures ouickly and shoots without de
lay. He has'not as good a billiard
head as Layton and his great chance
to'defeat Layton will be to dovetop a
brilliant streak, but this he will have
to produce himself," as Layton has
a defense which " is hard to break
through. ' - - T - -

I ; Etiquette.
I I would like to ay a few words
cn the courtesy side of golf and
hich I think will add to the enjoy
ment of players this season.
When you make an exceptionally
good shot it is a good plan to stop
and study how you did it rather than
give way to your pleasure at the re
sult. vlf more players would analyze
a successful shot they could execute
it with greater frequency.
' A good sportsman shows elation
When his opponent in a tight match
gets into trouble or makes a poor
shot. Golf etiquet rules against this.
It goes without saying that the less
one worries about the outcome of a
match the more likely he is to play
op to his best form. Worry, and you
inevitably lose the relaxed style
tiecessary to good golf. When you
Worry your muscles tighten and your
strokes are made in a stiff awkward
fashion. ' .

Track and Field
By Frank Loomis, Jr.
World's Champion Hurdler
For many years America has led
the world in field events. The rea
son for this is because of the atten
tion the American" boys give to form.
Form perfection , of form is the
quality one must work for to be suc
cessful in any field event. -'
The importance of style in the
high jump cannot be overestimated.
One might have plenty of spring: and
agility for the high jump, but if he
hasn't any form or style in his jump
he will not be able to do his best. In
other words, he can spring the
height, but does not know how to
get his body, arms and legs out of
the way its he reaches the height of
the bar.
Most jumpers start with the scis
sors jump. This is a side jump, the
athlete running at an oblique angle
toward the bar, kicks over one leg
and follows it with the other.
Way to Jump.
The modern way to jump is as fol
lows: Run almost straight at the
bar. "Within a short distance front
the standards swerve slightly parallel
to the cross bar, and smashing the
heel of right foot into the ground,
spring upward, making a big. high
kick with the left leg. At the same
tune swing the right lez uo and. in
doing this make a mighty swing up
ward with the left arm and a thrust
up with the chest. This first big,
high kick and the other movements
will give the athlete his height and
get his left leg over the cross bar.
As the athlete reaches his height he
turns his body so that he "arches"
the cross bar with his body and is
facing the cross bar and is directly
over it. This turning is done by
cutting or "swinging the neht
leg under the body, cutting it from
the right side of the cross bar over
to the lecft, and at the same time
swinging the arms upward and over
across the bar. The jumper will land
lacing the bar.
Gish of Nebraska Wins Third
in 120 Hurdles at Drake Relays
Dcs Moines, la., April 29.-r-(By A. P.) With a capacity crowd of 15,000
persons packed into the stands, the finals in the Drake relays were contested
in the Drake stadium this afternoon.; A bright sun blazing down from a
clear sky made weather conditions perfect for the games. A record-breaking
list of 859 athletes from 138 institutions were in the competition.
Two-mile high school relay, Class
A, won by Cedar Rapids (Cook,
Crawford, Yeisley, Irwin); ' Mason
City second. North Des . Moines

Vles of" golf will find himself making
better progress tr his opponents are bet

tne nest man in me maicn ana mis
brings out good golf.
it ts not a gooa nami 10 asx ror a
half on a putting green though you think
you are lying dead, but have one atroke
left lor a ball. It is only natural tnat
your opponent should (eel that if it Is so
easy to sink the ball why don't you do
It and not ask ror It. on tne other nana,
if your opponent volunteers the half, ac
cept it without further discussion. 1
have seen players under these circum
stances start to hole the ball with one
hand and miss. That opened the way
for an argument, which could Just as
well have been avoided had the played
picked up the ball when the bole was
offered him.
Before taking your atance to play a
shot decide definitely In your own mind
exactly what foil Intend to do. There la
quits a little advantage la being able to
execute your play without any hesitation
hll sddressing the ball. This is one
of the little tbinga that counts big in
a-olf.
Too much golf I ss bad for a player
as too little. Too much playing means
a loss of enthusiasm for the game, mua
cle soreness, which easily results In estab
li!hing bad golf habits. Two rounds every

age man can pisy up to his best form

Jack Britton, champion welter
weight boxer of the world, will
meet slugger in the person of
"Cowboy' Padgett here Friday
night in the main event of the
Knighti of Columbui fistic car
nival The champion ii cheduled to ar
rive in Omaha May 2. He will be
accompanied by his manager and
two sparring partners.
There are many styles used In
high jumping, but all the best jump
ers of modem times use the above
style, or something similar In fae',
every jumper has a style or his own.
His form of turning, etc., may be his
own because of his build, etc.. but
his styles will probably be alorg the
same line as many others.
Many jumpers "sheol" over the
bar, going over it almost in a lying
down position.
High school boys 'earning to high
jump shoul-.i r.ct confine ihc: '.selves
to a certain style. Try the "style
that is described above and then
work in your own modification to
the style to suit your own peculiar
capabilities.
Training is very necessary for
jumpers. Three limes a week is
plenty of practice for the high jump.
Do not practice at very high heights.
Get used to your form, your take
off, and get all the little points
down before you try for height.. In
experienced boys always jump too
often. Take plenty of time between
jumps (three and four minutes be
tween each jump.)
During a competition psycholofiy
plays a big part. Always try o
clear the bar in your first attempt.
Nothing' will so dishearten your
rivals as to see you clear each height
easily on your first attempt.

Babe Ruth Boils
as Yanks Lose
Bambino Doesn't Like Idea of
Having to Sit and Watch
Mates Beaten.
' Babe Ruth, home-run hitter extraor
dinary of the Yankees, was out of the
game opening day because of his sus
pension, but not out of the pictures.
The bis fellow sat in a box with
Ban Johnson, president of the Ameri
can league, and Colonel Huston, part
owner of the Yanks, and boiled over
when.he saw his team beaten while
he sat in idleness.
Brigades of movie cameras whirled
and other cameras clicked while the
Bambino registered disgust.
Babe marched in the procession
when the Auerican flag was hoisted,
and later was introduced to President
Harding. After the game he re
marked: :
"Only 36 more days like this."

Anson Slated for
Ball Job at Death
'Top" Anson's early labors for the
good of professional baseball would
have brought their reward this sea
son had he lived. Too late, Judge K.
M. Landis decided to give Anson
an important job in the higher ad
ministration of the game, and the
judge was just about to announce
the appointment when Anson died,
according to John J. McGraw, man
ager of the Giants.
Although Anson was comparative

several proffers of benefit games in
the last few'seasons. . . ' '

National Open Will Lat Five
Days and Field Will Be
Divided for Qualifying
Competition.
Xew York, April 29. The un
wieldy fields iu the national open
of past years which have caused
more or less confusion will be absent
this summer at Skokie, near Chi
cago. There will be five days of
play instead of three, and the divis
ion of the field into three equal
parts for qualifying competition.
The three qualifying rounds at 36
holes and a Tiiiai of 72 should
simplify matters considerably. One
section will play 36 holes on July
10, a second section on July 11, and
the third on July 12.
The 24 lowest players in each
division, together with those who tie
for late places, will play 36 holes
on Thursday and the same on Fri
day for the title. Lengthening the
duration of the tournament will not
hurry the players, and better golf
will be the result. ' v
With several British golfers among
the entries and with the hombreds
displaying wonderful improvement
in the spring competition in. the
south, the chase for the trophy now
held by Jim Barnes is going to. be
a thriller. '
Official announcement has been
made that the Pacific northwest
open golf championship will be
played on the links of the Colwood
Golf club in Victoria "June 2 and 3.
This event has not been held since
1920, so a record turnout is expected.
The meeting will be under the aus
pices of the Facific Northwest Pro
fessional Golfers' association and
will be- open to all who wish to
compete. Thirty-six holes will be
