sparkling Barbara Romack. a per
fectionist who thrives on pressure.
appears to be the girl to beat
lor the 65th annual National wo
men's Amateur golf championship.
The 23-year-old blonde from Sac
ramento, Calii., says she's "thor
, oughly prepared" to meet the field
' of 112 of some ol the world's top
feminine golfers. The match-play
tournament gets underway Mon
day, with the 36-hole final set for
Saturday.
Mits Romack, as serious about
her practice as about tournament
nlay. practically has lived on the
Rolling Myers Park Country Club
course during the past week. She
admits to "a month of hard prac
tice" before that.
NARROW FAIRWAYS
'Being defending champion sort
of puts me in everybody's gun
sights," she said. "But I'm pre
pared 'to face them."
The 6413-yard course, with its
narrow fairways, seems suited for
Barbara's long straight game. Her
week-long practice also has fam
iliarized her with the carefully
trapped Bermuda greens which
could prove troublesome to con
testants used to the more common
bent grass greens.
A strong contender for Barbara s
crown, Dorothy Kirby of Atlanta,
thinks it may be hard to beat the
pretty champion on this course.
"Barbara has fine control and
is mighty accurate," she said.
"Prom what I saw of the course,
that kind of game may pay off
here."
HELD IS TOP-XOTCH
However, It could pay oft for
Miss Kirby also. She won the title
on a course similar to this at Bt.
Paul, Minn., in 1951.
The four-time U. S. Curtis team
member figures whoever wins will
deserve it.
"The field certainly is a fine
one." she said. "I think every
hndv in women's golf is here.
Heading the contestants from the
United, States, canaoa,
v.i,.n' onrt Hawaii are three for
mer titleholders in addition to Miss
Kirby; Mrs. Mark Porter of Phil-
adelphia, Grace i-enciy..
ington. Conn., and Mrs. Estellt
T.nwson Pace of Chapel Hill, N.C
However, the new tltleholder
could come from a host of young

tered is the current national collegi
ate women's champion, Jacqueline

Bullfights
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) The
sport of bull-fighting, the bloodless
Portuguese style, made a decided
bit in Its first U. S. presentation.
And in the opinion of impres
sarlo Jes Cortes of Manila, it has
reached this country to stay. ,
"It Is going to take some time
to make the fans Interested enough
to come back time and again,"
said Cortes. "It is obvious that
most of those present so far nev
er before have seen a bull fight.
"But there was a tremendous
amount of enthusiasm in the
crowd and I predict that this type
of sport will become a major
spectacle in this country."
The first couple of nights, the
show attracted about 8000 for each
program. However. Cortes ex
pects a sell-out of the 13.000 seats
in the Cow Palace for the week
end. "The time may come," he said.
. "when American youth may take
up the Eport of bull lighting Just
as today they try to become an
other Babe Ruth or Red Orange."
UNCERTAIN
It was evident here that most of
the fans didn't know exactly what
they were cheering for. Mostly,
the major excitement in the stands
came when the bull would get one
of the matadors down and attempt
to gore him.
There was only polite applause
for the fine performance of Ma
nolo Navarro, the Spanish mata
dor who is considered one of the
greatest artists in the worid. Na
varro got a big hand when his
simulated kill of the bull was com
pleted but very little before
that.
In fact, the man who stole the
show was the so-called clown.
named Indio Apache, a bouncing
athlete from Portugal. He fought
the bull iwithout a cape, jumping
over Its back when it attacked
him and then wrestling it to the
ground in bare-handed combat.
The crowd seemed to love this
more possibly because it had
seen something of this type of per
formance in U. S. rodeos.
The average fan was impressed
with the sport, but wasn't sure if
he could become an "aflcianado."
ENJOYED
"f certainly enjoyed the show."
one said, "but I'm not sure I'd
want to return to another one right
away. It would be like seeing the
same movie twice."
Actually, this statement Isn't
true no more than going to the
baseball game three nights in a
row would prove monotonous.
Some of the fans were bored
when the bulls failed to show an
inclination to fight. In tact, once
during a great silence when noth
ing was happening in the bull
ring, one customer shouted:
'Bring e Bobo Olson I"
But Cortes is very optimistic
about the future. After the show
leaves here it goes to Los Ange
les where the big Mexican popu
lation is expected to help swell
the attendance. After that he'll try
his luck in the East at Chicago.
Detroit and New York, where they
rot only don't have bull fighting,
but have very little In the way of
rodeos outside of Mtdison Square

Swaps
Winner
In Derby
" CHICAGO If! - 8ensational
Swaps, leading all the way but
never by more than 2't lengths,
Saturday spurted to a one length
victory over the fast-closing Traf
flo Judge to win the 1149,425 Amer
ican Derby.
Rex. C. Ellsworth's chestnut colt
making his debut on the grass
course, covered the mile and three
sixteenths in a record-matching
time of 1:54 9. It equalled the
American turf mark recently set
by Platan in the Arlington Handi
cap. But possibly such a time would
not have been accomplished bad
not jockey Willie Shoemaker, com
ing nonchalantly up to the one
sixteenth pole, glanced over his
shoulder and seen Traffic Judge
bearing down upon him.
Shoemaker then went to the whip
and Swaps responded to score his
eighth successive triumph as a 3-year-old.
,
Traffic Judge, owned by Clifford
Mooers and ridden by a substitute
jockey, Peter Anderson, ran the
same race as he did against Nash
ua in the Arlington Classic.
In that race last month, Traffic
Judge, In a great stretch drive,
nearly caught Nashua and failed
by only one-half a length.
Swaps' triumph set up his $100,
000 winner-take-all match race at
Washington Park on Aug. 31
against Nashua, whose only defeat
was by the Khaled-Iron Reward
colt in the Kentucky Derby.
Swaps paid $2.40 and $2.20 to
those who backed him in a crowd
of 25.178 as a l-to-5 choice on the
board. Traffic Judge returned
$3.20 to place. There was no show
betting and there was a minus
place pool of $1,033.
The victory swelled Swaps' win
nings by $80,600, giving him a total
of $418,550 as a sophomore and
$439,500 in two years of campaign
ing. His two-year record now
stands at 11 victories and two

UCLA Picked As Tops
For Coming Grid Year
Bv GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK 'jfl Almost anyone,
we always say, can pick an All
America football team after the
season ends. The point has been
reached, in fact, when almost ev
eryone who owns or can borrow a
typewriter and who possesses an
old raccoon coat does take a stab
at this popular fall pastime.
But the man we admire is the
one who can haul off when the
weather still is in the high 90s and
tell us in advance, before a single
pigskin has been booted into the
ozone just who will be the 11 best
college player3 In the land the
coming season. Not only that, but
the 20 best teams, too, in the pre
cise order of their excellence.
Such a man Is Stanley Wood
ward, known to his intimates as
"Coach," whose annual publica
tion "Football" just has reached
this do.sk. If there is anyone who
would like to get away from base
ball for a few minutes we will be
glad tc fill him in on next autumn.
Let us start with something of a
surprise. Know where Notre Dame
wiil rank among the nation's be
hemoths when the last whistle has
been tooted? The "Coach" says
the Irish will stand 7th, -which
would be strange territory, indeed,
for them. We knew that Terry

olf the Women's Western Amateur
crown and Jo Anne Ounderson, 16,
is Women's Western Junior queen
and the tourney season is far
from over.
Patty is the oldest and Jo Anne
the youngest of the Northwest's
Fearsome Feminine Fivesome.
Another Seattle girl, Ruth Jessen,
is 18 and Ann Quast of Marysvllle
lust turned 18 Thursday Carole
Jo Kabler of Roseburg, Ore., Is 17,
Another Oregon youngster, 18-year
old Sue Devoe ot Medford, Is not
far oft the pace set by the other
rive.
POLISHED
If you tried to rate them you'd
have to put Patty at the too.
Tourney experience has polished
her game and no woman amateur
In the country can match her Iron
play. The others are about equal
:n sonny.
Jo Anne and Ruthie are the
heavy hitters, slamming their tee
shots consistently for 240 yards.
Jo Anne may outhlt the blonde
Miss Jessen by a yard or so, Annie
Quast her father Is a former
university of Washington oar
man, Tom Quast is perhaps the
finest putter. Carole Jo's chief as
set is a supreme confidence that
tits snugly with her well rounded
game
Ruthie. Jessen probably has the
greatest potential a natural
game that .needs only steady play
10 snarpen ana periect it. And
Ruthie probably Is the only one
who may eventually turn profes
sional. Ruthie will join Patty this
fall as a student at Seattle Univer
sity. Anne Quast is transferring
from Stanford to her father's alma
mater.
And the gals are good ambassa
dors from the home country when
they're on the tourney trail. "Pat
ty Lesser is the most popular girl
golfer In the nation," says Mrs.
E, F. Rlsllne of Seattle, who has
been closely associated with the
youngsters' careers.
"All of them have excellent per
sonalities. All are modest and so
well behaved It's hard for people
to believe they are so young."
Up to date there have been no
Instances of "putt peeking" amonp
the five. This Is the first symptom
of the feminine golfer's most dead
ly affliction love. When a gal
starts peeking over her putts to
see how many boys are watching,
her golfing days are numbered.
Tnere are boy friends in the
nlcture, naturally, but so far Cuoid
hasn't been able to get off the
first tee.
SNORKEL TYPE
The speedboat Miss Thrlftway
has a big air scoop mounted in
front of Its engine and you'd ex
pect the thing to drown when it
got In the foostertail of another
boat. Ted Jones equipped the scoop
with a snorkel-type device and It
shifts automatically when doused
with water. . .
Hunters regard the coot as the
poorest flyer among the water
birds, but this despised mudhen
is quite a tourist. One banded at
Summer Lake in Oregon was killed
south of Mexico City. It had flap
ped nearly 2,500 miles to find
somebodv hungry enough to shoot
a coot. The Oregon Game Corn
mission also reports it caught a
black duck in a banding trap this
year near Hermlston. The blacklc
had been banded 11 years ago at
Orland Park, 111. . .
Jo Anne Gundcrson almost
passed up the Women's Western
Junior tourney. Her entry was
wired in at the last minute and
she arrived Just In lime to play

Meanwhile Bernard . F. Oimbe!.
president and chairman of the .
Board of the New York Convention
and Visitors Bureau, urged Wag
ner to consider building a city
owned stadium.
"Great events are bresently by
passing New York City for lack of

New York lost the Army-Navy

facilities."

Board of Estimates to appropriate
