Newspaper Page Text, OS ANGELES.— Golf’s Hall of L Fame is now moving into an established setting. I suggested the f H ‘ a two years ago and found im ia mediate sponsor ship from the Pro -3 fessional Golf Asso ciation of America, more briefly known Pjl* WS* \ as the P.G.A. pL It was suggested B that I name a com f mittee of veteran P Mi golf writers who f had the back 6 round of more than 30 mWWi years of American . golf. Grantland Rice This committee includes Linde Fowler, Boston, ex perience 36 years; Kerr N. Petrie, New York, experience 34 years; O. B Keeler, Atlanta, experience 34 years along the paths of the “an cient game.” The committee will offer its sug gestions to more than 200 writers and column conductors who go in for golf— golf writers covering the bunkered landscape of the country —and their votes shall be decisive. It was the original idea of this committee to start things rolling by naming four men who certainly be long at the top—Walter Hagen, Bob by Jones, Francis Ouimet and Gene Sarazen, to put them alphabetically. They are, considering every angle, without any question, the four top men of American golf. Jones and Hagen alone won 19 national championships—U. S. Open and Amateur and British Open and Amateur. Francis Ouimet by beat ing Vardon and Ray in the U. S. Open back in 1913 made American youth golf conscious, removing golf from the social and financial pages to the sporting page. Gene Sarazen has won the British and U. S, Opens more than once, the P.G.A., and after 20 campaigns came back last June to tie Lawson Little for the U. S. Open at Cleveland. All four were great golfers, great sportsmen, great fellows, and packed with personal color. I be lieve the vast majority of the golf writers will support this selection or this nomination. The Long Parade The idea was to make eligible all golfers who had lived or held club positions in the United States. This, of course, would leave out such stars as Harry Vardon, Harold Hilton and Ted Ray. They were welcome in vaders, but not U. S. golfers. In addition to the homebreds and the homeborn it would leave such eligible entries as WjHie Anderson, Alec Smith, MacDonald Smith, Tom my Armour, Long Jim Barnes, Bob by Cruickshank and others who have given most of their golfing time to America. In addition to these others there are other big names left—Jack Mc- Dermott, who tied for the Open in 1910 and then won in 1911 and 1912, the first homebred to roll back for eign born domination; Jerry Trav ers, who won four U. S. Amateurs and one U. S. Open; Chick Evans, the first to win the U. S. Amateur and U. S. Open in one year—l9l6; Wal ter J. Travis, who, starting golf at 36, was the first American player to win the British Amateur—in 1904; Lawson Little, a strong entry, cur rent U. S. Open champion and win ner of both U. S. and British Ama teurs two years in a row. If Jones, Hagen, Sarazen and Ouimet are named as the first four —as I believe they will be—the scramble for the next place should he wide open—McDermott; Evans; Travers; Alec and Mac Smith; Willie Anderson, winner of four U. S. Opens, three in a row; Armour; Barnes; Travis; Little; Sweetser; Goodman; Robert A. Gardner; and then the new crop coming on—Nel son, Hogan, Snead, Guldahl and oth ers, There is more than enough tal ent in sight. The committee, with the aid of Freddy Corcoran, tournament direc tor of the P.G.A., will be ready to make the first nominations by April and so open the main door to the Hall of Fame. Ladies and Location The next two problems concern the ladies of golf and the location °f the Hall of Fame. There also will be a Hall of Fame for the women stars to be consid ered separately. Such golfers as Alexa Stirling, Genna Collett, Mari on Hollins, Helen Hicks, and Patty Berg should be near the top. There has been a keen rush to establish headquarters for this hall, ■’avannah, Ga., claiming the first golf club in 1811, is already in with ,ts , request. So is St. Andrews, claiming the first golf course and golf club combined. Atlanta wants it in behalf of Bob by Jones, Boston in behalf of Fran cis Ouimet, Rochester in behalf of Walter Hagen. Lowell Thomas, the well-known sports commentator, sponsored in a S, way by Gene Sarazen, would 1 e to build a special hall at his h'oee in New York and make this a golfing shrine, lorn Walsh, president of the 'rv/i ask s me to delay any such v ectl °n, which is welcome news to our committee. It might even be . er to shift the Hall from place to Place. Household Neuis GUARANTEED TO GET THE FAMILY UP IN THE MORNING (See Recipes Below.) BREAKFASTS TO GET THE FAMILY UP “The nice thing about breakfasts” said one newlywed, “is that you don’t have to plan them, you just serve them.” Although it is possible to get a breakfast with whatever there is at hand in the line of toast, coffee, and fruit juices, a little plan ning does yield big dividends. For it is planning that makes pos sible the breakfast specialties that get the laggards out of bed in the morning—and down to eat before they go. And that’s important, be cause they miss the Vitamin C in the orange or tomato juice when they skip breakfast, the Vitamin B in the whole grain cereal, the iron in the egg yolk, which aren’t always made up later in the day. A sketchy, hurried breakfast, or none at all, accounts, too, for some of that mid-morning fatigue. It’s a long time to go without food, from six o’clock of one night until noon of the next day. Here, then, are some breakfast menus, and some recipes for new breakfast special ties, that are n,<i'ny guaranteed to get <the family out of Pp bed in the morn ing.
