FOR GOLF TOPICS at the moment one must look to America, whore Jim Ferrier, famous amateur from Australia, is at present on tour, and who, incidentally, is the first of the overseas players to conform with the new regulations governing the American championships.
and
and American Amateur
In former years the courtesy of the Americans allow- ed visiting players, if of sufficient renown, to enter the championships proper without their being obliged to play through the qualifying rounds. But, under recent legisla tion, no matter how excellent may be one credentials, it is necessary for all to play through the preliminary rounds.
Not that they mind! To the contrary, in fact. It has always been the case in Britain that evon with-such players as those comprising the visiting United States Walker and Ryder Cup teams they have lind to play through the qualifying rounds of tho British championships. "Quite right, too" is the general remark in Britain- referring to the new order.·
Consistently over the past decade and more, British gollers have failed to get anywhere in the American Open, despite their omission of the preliminary rounds. And is only since 1934 that they have been able to stave off the threats of the Amerl- ean Invaders at home. Twelve times during the 13 years perto 1921-33 did the Americans take the British Open-ten titles in a row, and on all the Americans to, Occasions had qualify.
Walter Hagan. Cene Sarozen and Bobby Jones all had to go through it, and even when the American cliam- pions had returned. The following year to defend their 11es they once again had to qualify.
But they did very well. Here Is the list of the champions over that period:
"lock" Hutchinson (1021). Walter Hogan (1922), Walter Hagan (1924). Jim Barnes (1928) Bobby Jonest (1020), Bobby Jotics (1927), Walter Hanen (1928/20), Bobby Jones (1930, and also winner of the four world's

THUS, though Jim Ferrier has
been acclaimed by many as the world's finest amateur (now that Bobby Locke has turned Professional), he had still lo play through the qualifying rounds of this year's American Open.
Oddly enough, though Ferrier has recognition in the achieved such United States, tile (very little) space is given in the American news- papers to his matches over there.
Perhaps, American opinion is based on Ferrier's records from Australia, Last year, on consecutive days, he clipped three strokes off the course record at Sydney while winning the "champion of chempions" tourno- ment, and then bettered the record score at Bowral by four strokes in a round of 01.
He was in England in 1936, and reached the Bnal of the British Amateur, losing to Hector Thomson by 2 down.
