TEST CRICKETERS IN VON ELM HAS NO
TROUBLE.
Woodfull and Ponsford Do Not Play.
DELEGATES ANNOYED.
All sorts of rumours, writes Southerner from Melbourne in the Sydney Referce, are rife as to what is to happen at the next meet- ing of the Victoria Cricket Associn- Hon. A considerable number of de- ! legates are annoyed at the refusal of W. M. Woodfull and W. H. Ponsford to play in the important N.S.W. v. Victoria match in Syd-
ney.
Various motions are
be to brought forward, and there are rumours of probable suspensions It seems that the annoyed Rec tion
of the V.C.A. evidently re- gards players as being the pro- perty of the association. This sce- tion fondly imagines that players who take part in big cricket re- quire no rest. Winning the Shield is all important,
Since the chances of Victorla again winning the Shield are rosy. these delegates should be mollifled, especially as Woodfull and Pone- ford have played in only Shield game so far. It is easy to make trouble, but unt so easy to put things right.
one
N.S. Wales did not protest to the V.CA. that Woodfull and Ponsford did not come to Sydney to play in the Shield match. Domestic ar angements are the explanation from Victoria. Looks as though
·N.S. Wates is hard to please. The must associations of Australia realise that they are asking slar players to give far too much time How many to first-class cricket. members of the associations them- selves could afford to take so much time off from their private affairs as they expeet the cricketers to take, comments "Not Out."
COMPLAINT.
"Nothing Playing Golf for Glory."
ONE BIG WEAKNESS,
New York, March 1. George Vou Elm, the Salt Lake City golfer, is one business man who has no complaint.
And if Von Elm, that curious. hybrid known as neither a profes- sional nor an amateur golfer, can get a firm grip on his putting touch and avoid a tendency for one bad round in large tournament play. he's not apt to view with alarm" the near future.

some On $8,000 richer since he decided that playing golf for glory was all right | On for those who could, afford it, but that as a business man he needed whatever prize money his golf skill would bring him.
Von Elm's biggest reward for his exceedingly realistic conception of in the $25,000 Agua golf came
he tied for Callente open when first place with John Golden, Con- necticut professional.
Von Elm los: in an 18-hole play- off, but that east him nothing- ex- cept the honour of first place. Ho already had entered "business" ar- rangements with Golden to cut the middle, meaning prize down the $6,750 apiece.

- This added to the prize money that Von Elm picked up in the winter tournaments at Salt Lake San Francisco brought bis and earnings up to somewhere in the neighbourhood of $8,000.--
In the Agua Caliento event Von Elm refused to nod to his old jinx of one bad round. In 1928 and again in 1929 a single bad round defeated him in the national open championship, but at the Mexican
