HAW WE riEvwwATCMrricAvori Walker Team Sweeps First Matches Briton's Title Hopes Crushed By STERLING SLAPPEY ST. ANDREWS, Scotland tf America's unquenchable young amateur golfers crushed Britain s hopes of winning the Walker Cup Friday when they swept all four of the opening day's foursomes matches in the 15th international team competition. This totally unexpected triumph sent the United States into Satur day's singles needing to win only three of eight matches in order to retain the trophy. It was a crushing setback for the British team, regarded as the strongest of the post-war era. Although the Americans had been slight favorites to win the Walker Cup for the 14th time, nothing like Friday's sweep was foreseen. The Britons, more ac customed to foursomes play and to the vagaries of St. Andrews weather, had been expected to show their best. Only Once Before Onlv twice before in Walker Cud history in 1928 at Wheaton, 111., and in 1932 at Brookline. Mass. had Britain failed to get even a half in the Walker Cup four somes. Friday only the top American team, Harvie Ward of San Fran cisco and Don Cherry of Wichita Falls, Tex., had to go the full 36 hole distance over the windswept 6,936-yard Old Course of St. An drews. They rallied at the finish to down Ireland's Joe Carr and England's Ronnie White the best of the British amateurs, one up. Billy Joe Patton, the happy-go-lucky clouter from Morganton, N. C, and young Dick Yost of Port land, Ore., and Seattle, ' Wash., turned back Gerald Micklem of England and John Llewellyn Mor gan of Wales, 2 and I.
