New Sensation in Women's Golf Is Catherine Fox By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN CHICAGO, June 29 () The newest sensation in women's golf is 18-year-old Catherine Fox, who, as just a tot, built sand castles in the bunkers of. the Kidderminister Golf club in England.

She was only two years old when she came to this coun try with her parents, and was only 10 when she played in her first golf tournament. Catherine's father, Jack Fox, who was pro at Leven, Scotland, before going to England, chewed up several cigars during anxious moments yesterday when she fired a 78 over the Glen Oaks links to tie with 21-year-old Ann Casey of Mason City, Iowa, for runner-up medalist honors in the women's western open.

This is because tomorrow is the first of two "war relief" days designated by Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis with all clubs turning over their en tire receipts to the National War Fund. Last year each club played a pair of games for the army and navy. Relief societies and some of them were given haphazard promotion by the clubs con cerned. Nevertheless, the 18 games, played on various dates and under conditions, netted $506,830.30. This year baseball has profited from the experience in 1942 and has mobilized for two big re lief days, June 30 and July 28, instead of scattering their dates and the whole show is being gilded with gaudy side-features. All the shows will be either doubleheaders or twilight for night games. These games will set off a busy two-week program for both leagues with a heavy holiday schedule awaiting all clubs this weekend and the annual all star game coming up at Philadel phia two weeks from tonight. As is customary this year, most clubs had a two-day inter mission before embarking on the East-West series. The only ac tivity in the majors yesterday was a night game at Pittsburgh jwlth the Pirates pummcling the Cincinnati Reds 7-1.
