AMERICA'S STRONGEST TEAM EVER?

London, July 10.

WA

ALTER Hagen, former holder of the British and American open championships, has been appointed captain of the United States team to meet Great Britain in the Ryder Cup match, which will be played at Ridgewood, New Jersey, on Sept. 28 and 29."

The team as selected is as follows:-Waiter Hagen (capt-). Paul Runyan, Sam Parks. jun. Olin Dutra, Ky Laffoon, Johnny Revolta. Henry Picard, Horton Smith, Gene Sarazen, and Craig Wood. Hagen will play in the contest, and not merely act in a non-playing capacity.

There is nothing honorary about Hagen's appointment.” said Mr. Jacobus. president of the American Professional Golfers Association. "He thoroughly deserves the captaincy if for no other reason than his grand finish in the United States Open this year. In addition to his record in the past two years, he shapes up well with the other members of the Leara."

Six of the side. Hagen, Run, yan, Dutra, Horton Smith, Sara- zen and Craig Wood were in the side that lost at Southport two years ago.

are

Sam The newcomers" Parks, who sprang into promin- ence by winning the US Open recently: Henry Picard, who did well in the British Open; Ky Laffoon and Johnny Revolta

· Hagen thinks highly of Picard and Laffoon, who are two of the most improved players among the younger professionals.

Hagen's Playing Ability Hagen's appointment as captain is not from any feelings of senti- ment (writes George Greenwood) but because his playing ability shows no signs of deterioration as the years roll by

Helen Jacobs receives Women's Championship cup wos' by default.

A promoter's dream came true. The crowd was limited to the capacity of the stands at Wimble- don, as Helen Jacobs and her rival of old, Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, battled in the final for what is recognised as the women's world tennis title. It marked the first meeting of the two Helens from California since 1933 when Mr. Moody defaulted to Miss Jacobs in the national mais at Forest- Hills, Long Island, when in arrears. The former Helen Willis, then complained of illness and retired from competition for two years. Bat she came back, to beat her court rival after the latter had held match point

EASTERBROOK FOR

REMAINING

THE

PLACE

(By George Greenwood)

London, July 10. following eight players were chosen yes- terday for the British Ryder Cup team to meet the United States at the Ridgewood Coun- try Club, New Jersey, on Sept. 28 and 29: Percy Alliss (Beaconsfield), R. Burton (Hooton), J. J. Busson (Pannal), W. J. Cox (Addington) (Asst.), E. W. Jarman (Prenton), A. H. Padg- ham (Sundridge Park),Alfred Perry (Leather- head), C. A. Whitcombe (Crews Hill) (capt.). The two remaining places will be allocated later.

The qualities of enterprise and vision, often lacking in those charged with the choosing of international teams. have been shown in the selection of the British players.

The nomination of W. J. Cox is a 'striking illustration of gone about the spirit in which the selection committee have their task. Tradition in these matters has been swept aside, to play in the Ryder Cup for he is the first assistant ever matches. His appointment may give cause for a good deal of surprise in some quarters, but to those who, like myself, know the man and his golf, the surprise would have been if he had been overlooked.
