From his pocket Raul takes a

with a look which says "thank

Girl Who May Win Golf Fame
17-Year-Old Star Isn’t Musical Comedy Type of Redskin

A can sock the cover off of a golf ball, but she isn’t one of those
musical comedy Indian maidens, the plaintive sort with jet-black
tresses, a buckskin trousseau and some feathers and beads.
Tills little Miss- Eleanor Jones, 17—is a grinning, red-headed,
freckle-faced babe.
Eleanor, what with the carrot-top, the set of
freckles and the general aptitude for driver and
mashie, has much in common with Patty Berg,
the 17-year-old Minneapolis kid who has become
golfdom’s young sensation largely because her
folks didn't want her playing football with boys
in the neighborhood. ’

O are right proud of her and they tell me she was

And this town was smitten much to its sorrow, no doubt—by

to Los Angeles for the $100,000 Santa Anita Handicap.

Raul drops a bite of food to a

and looks at him wistfully. Yes,
wistfully.
"It doesn’t take me long to
teach them. They’re very bright.
Mitch brighter than children. Give
me any kind of fish from the
reefs, grown or baby, and I'll have
him eating out of my hand in a
week. In only a few days a fish,
even the vicious barracuda, learns
that I want to help him lead an
| easy life, and will not hurt him
nor allow others to hurt him. Soon
as he learns this he gets just as
friendly as a dog. They all seem
to like to have their backs and
sides rubbed. They don’t like it
at first, but once they get used
to it, they come back for more.
Those that don't behave I don't
feed. This soon teaches them
they must be gentlemanly."

yes, sometimes. And you wonder
if he ever gets them to liking
that, too.

“As a natural result,” he said.
"1 expect 10 times as much ma-

ably will be held in Japan."
Kirby said the American per-
the fact that Great Britain used

Hopes of retrieving some color
from an otherwise hopeless sea-
son by knocking the Longhorns
off in a clinch were blasted last
night when Marty Karow’s boys
proved to be better polar bears
than the desert-loving Horned
Frogs and won, 35-27.
However, the Frogs haven't
given up yet. They still have a
chance to blaze a hot spot in a
dismal year. Friday and Satur-
day they take on the Razorbacks
in Fayetteville and if, by any
chance, they could knock off the
tall Ozarkians in either of the
games—well, ft wouldn't be so
bad.
‘Backs Almost In.
Barring such an upset, which is
not likely because of the far su-
perior height of the redshirts of
the hills, the Razorbacks are
practically over the hump. They
have only four games left on
their schedule. Two of these are
with the Frogs and the other two ’
with the Longhorns, their closest
rivals.
Of course, now, if the Frogs
should get a hot spell—hot like
firecrackers and seven hundred
dollars—and knock the 'Backs
off, that’d be sumpin’. But no-
body looks for such. The best the
Steers ‘can hope for—is an even
break and as they are a full game
back now, the split would avail
them naught.
Anyhow, the Frogs, will put in
a couple of days of hard effort in
preparation for the Razorback
games—and, well, funny things
happen even in basketball.
Frigid Environment,
‘Only a few witnesses were pres-
ent when the Longhorns beat the
Frogs last night. The old field
house showed no evidence of ever
having been introduced to any
kind of a fire and players obvious-
ly shrank from removing their
sweat shirts when the time came.
It was a pretty fair game, es-
pecially down near the finish.
The Steers busted out in front and
stayed there pretty well until half-
way through the second half when
the Frogs pulled up to within two
points of their opponents at 25 to
23, but that ended the rally and
the Steers soon moved out in
front again.
Ability to cash In on free
throws kept the Frogs in the
race, Willie Walls making seven
gift shots by himself.
