World’s Record Golf
Expected This Winter
The world m&.y look forward toward
January ninth as the day on which
the greatest thirty-six holes of golf
ever played will be turned in. The
golf will be played by the winner of
the Los Angeles SIO,OOO open cham
pionship and will be to the credit of
George Von Elm or of the man who
beats him.
Von Elm is only in his middle twen
ties. And although he has never had
the distinction of being a boy wonder
he is within a few months of the age
of Bobby Jones of Atlanta who has
always had that title.
In winning the national amateur
championship at Baltusrol Von Elm
was one under even fours for thirty
five holes. He has a record of 63, that
is nine under even fours, for eighteen
holes at the Rancho Club in Los
Angeles. And the Rancho Club course
may be selected for the finals of the
L. A. Open championship.
If it is the champion, who is still a
youngster and whose game is getting
better, will be playing in his first big
tournament since winning the cham
pionship. He will be playing at home

before his thousands of friends who
have presented him with a magnificent
sedan and who have otherwise
crowned him king.
He will be pressed by one of the
greatest fields of golfers ever put to
gether. He will be driving with the
narrow stance, and the full pivot—
this is the altered style that helped
him to the championship. He will be
playing in perfect golfing weather for
the records reveal January days in
Los Angeles to be bright and sun
shiny, with comparatively little wind
and neither too hot nor too cold.
With the driving he did to win the
amateur championship at Baltusrol his
sixty-three at Rancho would have
been more than likely a sixty-one.
The man who beats Von Elm the
day of the finals is likely to have in
his record the greatest round ever
turned In. Hundreds will be in the
play. The prize is the richest in golf
and it Is played at a time when most
of the golf courses of the United
States are closed. This will permit
scores of professionals to be in the
Southland who have to remain at their
home clubs at other seasons.
