COOPER WINS FOURTH ANNUAL PASADENA TOURNEY
COX, VETERAN
BPKLYN PRO.,
PLACES SECOND
Pasadena, Wr Those who favor
the new heavier golf ball had
Harry Cooper's victory In the fourth
annual Pasadena $4,000 open tour
nament Monday as proof of their
prejudices. The confident Chicago
pro took unto himself first prize
money of a thousand dollars Bun
day by leading a field of 180 play
ers by several strokes after the
three-day, 72-ho!e contest which
marked the first tourney test of
the weightier missile.
Light Horse Harry, who rode out
of Texas five years ago as an un
known youth with a strong belief
tn his own game to annex the Los
Angeles open, set a burning pace of
three strokes under par for the
Brooksldc layout, shooting a 281 to
outclass the field.
After trailing three strokes on the
opening round with a 72, one over
par, the professional from the Glen
Oaks country club startled the gal
lery and his opponents Saturday
with a sizzling 67 to take the lead
he never relinquished during Sun
day's 30 holes.
White exponents of the heavy ball
may have their Inning with Cooper
as proof, his closest competitors.
Whiffy Cox, veteran Brooklyn cam
paigner who placed second and Fred
Morrison, powerful driving Culver
City, Calif., pro, who placed third,
saved the "balloon" pellet of 1931
origin from disgrace.
Cox ran up a 288 total for the 72
holes, worth $(i00 to him In prize
money, while Morrison wound up
with a 289, good for $400 In the coin
of the realm. New ball advocates
took the next four places.
Ralph Guldahl and Walter Hagen,
a couple of Detroit pros, tied for
fourth with 290 strokes and collected
$325 while Ray Mangrum of Los An
geles and Eddie Loos, Chicago, tied
for sixth to receive $225 each. All
played the ponderous pellet.

WOODBURN LADIES'
AID ENTERTAINED
Woodburn The Ladies' Aid soci

social afternoon Thursday at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Stewart near
Broadacres. An Interesting program
was put on by the committee in
charge. Among the special numbers
was a talk by Miss Stewart on North
Carolina, detailing the habits and
customs of the early Moravians who
settled In those parts about Revolu

worth iVnes, 19 year old national
tennis king, ran a close race for
second place. Oulmet finally won
by the narrow margin of 11 votes
to 10 for the California sensation.
Here are the results of the As
sociated Press poll:
Pepper Martin, St. Louis Cardin
als 68.
Francis Oulmet, national ama
teur golf champion 11.
Ellsworth Vines, national ama
teur tennis champion 10.

Howard H. Jones, Southern Calif
ornia football coach 1.
John Orel, Colgate football cap

Jules Ladoumegue (France) world
mile record holder 1.
The recognition for what one
sports editor described as "Martin's
unprecedented, spectacular and record-breaking
play in the world
series'' furnished striking proof of
how the youngster's performance
stirred the enthusiasm of the na
tion's sporting experts. The Card
inal star's personal batting and
base running exploits, which had
the world champion Athletics com
pletely up In the air for five games,
possessed every element of sport
ing drama.
By the half dozen who selected
Lefty Grove for the No. 1 Individual
performance of the year, Instead
of Martin, It was pointed out that
the southpaw star's ability was
tested over a full season. Similarly
those who rated Vines at the top
of the list emphasized the bril
liance It required to capture 14
tennis tournaments at the age of
19.
"By capturing every one of the
16 free style ofiicial women's swim
ming records, Helene Madison was
fully entitled to be conceded the
outstanding Individual performer of
the year," wrote another sports ob
server. "No other woman swimmer
