Youth and Speed Keynote
Huskies' 1949 Grid Team
By HARRY CARLSON
(United Prut Sporu Wrlttr)
Seattle, Wash., U. C o a e h
Howie Odell probably will field
the youngest team in the Pa
cific Coast Conference this fall
but he Is quite certain that
is will give a good account of
itself.
The Huskies, winners of only
two games last year when Odell
was hospitalized for most of the
season, have shown a lot of co
ordination in spring and early
fall practice and they should do
well. If the team breaks even
this fall, Odell will be satisfied.
He's sure these boys will be
winners when they get to be
juniors.
Right now at least four
sophomores will make the
starting lineup. Quarterback
Don Heinrich; Fullback Hugh
McElhenny and Guard Char
lie Gasson, all up from the
1948 Frosh team, have been
consistently lined up with the
first team in drills, Fritz Ap
king, a six-foot, five-Inch
sophomore end, has alternated
with Chuch Olson at left end.
Another sophomore, Loran
Perry of Great Falls, Mont., has
a 50-50 chance of nailing down
one of the tackle positions; and
Sophomore Darold Talley will
see a lot of action at end.
That makes a flock of inexpe
rience for a club that plays one
of the nation's toughest sched
ules. The Huskies start in with
University of Utah, Rocky
Mountain King-pin; then play
Minnesota and Notre Dame be
fore embarking on a seven-game
PCC schedule.
Teaming with the young
sters in the backfield will be
Roland Kirkby and Jack Seth,
a pair of junior halfbacks.
That backfield probably will
rate with any on the West
Coast.
The line, however, isn't any
thing to rave about. Along with
the boys coming up from the
Frosh, Odell has 16 lettermen
on the club, including backs.
Among the better athletes
available for forward wall duty
are George Bayer, a three-year
veteran tackle; Joe Cloldt, vet
eran end; Bill Burnett at left
guard, and Mike Michael, a cen
ter. The chances are that the
Huskies will field an excep
tionally fast club, with proba
bly the trickiest offensive ever
put on display by a Washing
ton football team. It may not
win too consistently this year,
but with a year's experience,
it should be a tough cookie
in 1950.
The Husky schedule:
Sept. 17 Utah at Seattle.
Sept. 24 Minnesota at Min
neapolis.
Oct. 1 Notre Dame at Seat
tie.
Oct. 8 Oregon State at Seattle.

Ferrier Nabs KC Open
Over Bumpy Fairways
Kansas City, Sept. 12 W) Jim
Ferrier is champion of the reviv
ed Kansas City open golf tour
nament mainly because he was
the best man in the rough and
on the bumpy fairways.
The heavyweight San Fran
cisco golfer won $1,000 first
prize yesterday in completing
the 72 holes on the hilly Swope
park public course with 277
strokes, 11 under par.
Dick Metz of Arkansas City,
Kas., needing three strokes to
catch Ferrier at the start Wed
nesday, managed a 71 for a 281
total. He earned $700.
National Open Champion
Cary Middlecoff, who said he
was quitting the tournament
after carding a 76 Monday
and then changed his mind,
also shot a 71. It gave the
Memphis dentist a 285 total.
British PGA to Battle on
Ban of Locke by Americans
By OSCAR FRALET
(Unltd Preaj Sporu Writer)
New York, 0J.R) British Open
Champion Bobby Locke dis
closed today that the British
P.G.A. had slated discussions
with United States P.G.A. offi
cials now enroute to England
for the Ryder Cup matches con
cerning his disbarment from
American tournaments,
Locke, facing two operations
on his return to South Africa
next week, was barred by the
P.G.A. after winning the Brit
ish Open and then failing to re
turn in time for the Inverness
four-ball in which he was sched
uled to compete.
Locke refused any other com
ment as he arrived in New York
to attend to his Dunlop Sport
ing goods connections, other
than to say:
"I was named captain of
the British P.G.A. after win
ning the British Open. As
a member of the British
P.G.A., the matter now Is in
the hands of Commander R.
C. T. Coe, its secretary, and he
will conduct discussions with
the U.S. P.G.A."
That statement.however, por
tended trouble for the U.S. Ry
der Cup team when it lands in
England for the international
matches Sept. 16-17.
Ed Dudley, power behind the
throne of the current inadequate
U.S. P.G.A. setup, went along
with the American team as an
honorary captain. And it is
certain that he and Coe will go
to the mat for a real show
down. For Locke, who flies back
to South Africa next Thurs
day and there will undergo an
appendectomy and an opera
tion for removal of a cyst
from his right eye, received
a raw deal here. Particularly
if the only reason for bounc
ing him was his failure to
"keep commitments."
There isn't a pro golfer in the
P.G.A. who hasn't, at one time
another, failed to keep a
tournament date. The instances
are too numerous to mention.
Locke notified the P.G.A. in
the United States as soon as pos
sible after winning the British
Open that he would not appear
at Inverness. The fact was made
that sporting goods business con
nections in England made it im
possible for him to leave.
And there is no doubt that
the sporting goods manufac
turers run the top American pro
golfers with iron-clad contracts
telling them where to go and
how to get there. It is a very
important part of making a liv
ing on the fairways and greens.
Locke doesn t mention this,
probably because he is afraid to
give the impression that he is
crawling to the P.G.A. in the
United States or that he is a fel
low who fancies himself," as
the British say.
He Is keeping a tightly but
toned lip and waiting for the
British P.G.A. to carry the
ball. It will, too.
Meanwhile, there Is no dodg
ing the real reasons why Locke
was barred. He simply had his
hand too deep in the prize
pocket.
The accurate Afrikaneer came
over here in 1947 to win the
Carolina Open, Houston Open,
Philadelphia Inquirer, Goodall
Round Robin, Canadian Open,
Tam O'Shanter and the Colum
bus, O., Open. He won $26,000.
In 1948 he copped the Caro
lina Open, the Chicago Vic
tory Open and the Phoenix
Open, being high up enough
to bank $20,000. This year he
took top honors at Virginia
Beaoh and in the Goodall
was barred from the P.G.A.
because he "was no longer a
visitor" and then took the
British Open "for the greatest
win of my life."

merican Frontier
is right on iour own
Main
Street !
YES, for every man and woman there are
still opportunities freely open for the taking!
To know that thiss Is so, look about you . . .
At the young shipping clerk who took two years
of night school in mechanics, and now is a tune
up specialist down at the garage . . .
At the drug clerk who turned the Idea of home
permanents into a nation-wide Industry . . .
At the woman whose health-building recipe for
bread put her into a successful business and
made jobs for many of her neighbors . . .
At the fellow down at the mill who took the trouble
to learn more than his job required, and last
week was made a foreman!
These folks and many millions more whatever
their politics and backgrounds simply don't
believe American frontiers are closed. They've
found their opportunities right on Main Street!
And they don't believe the "do-it-yourself"
spirit is out of date. Not now ... or ever!
Not if we recognize one plain fact:
America is what it is because it sees more in
the "do-it-yourself" spirit than in a spoon-fed
security!
In other countries people are coming to wait
for things to be done for them. But in America
we HAVE much more because we DO much more
for ourselves! In no other place is there so much
that is worth working for. . .
Seeing the evidence of this all around us, we
keep on developing new skills, new occupations,
new ideas. We make new inventions, develop
'Thera ar plenty of chances
to ho your own row . . . now
mora thitn aver before," says
Donald M. Clark, 25, owner
of an aerial crop-spraying
buflinma in Delaware. "That's
the Kreat thing about this
country you can make your
own opportunities, and make
'm pay offl"
new materials, organize new services. This means
that our opportunities are constantly expanding!
These are today' "frontiers." They art open to
all of us. But for some there is need to re-affirm
that the ceiling in America is still unlimited . . .
to prove it by the stories of those who have the
stuff to grasp their chances.
Hence this new series of advertisements...
For life insurance itself is a natural expression
of the do-it-yourself spirit. It is itself an aggres
sively competitive Main Street institution. Life
insurance has grown big because the need is big,
because 73 million American policyholders
depend on it. Some 584 life insurance com
panies actively compete to meet this need.
Each year mor Americans of their own choice
turn to life insurance for the security that helps
free our minds from worry . . . that releases us
to make the most of our opportunities. In this,
the country's more than 150,000 life insurance
agents themselves contribute significant service.
It is their specialized knowledge which helps make
life insurance do the most for the individual.
Yes, the growth of life insurance Is in itself
outstanding evidence of the continued vigor of
the do-it-yourself spirit that still if America.
People believe in life insurance, because they've
seen it help so many people, so many ways!
