and though we had intended al!

As he says, big league umpires

They are good companions off
the ball field, and when one of
{them decides you are on the

average player. If they were not
bound by the nature of their
jobs to keep quiet in company
they would be better understood
by the fans.

SEATTLE  — Vancouver’s Bill
Mawhinney shouldered his way
Thursday into the semi-finals of

the US. Amateur Golf champ-

ionship.

Bull - shouldered Mawhinney,
who won the Canadian amateur
title in 1950, will clash today
with Jack Westland of Everett.
Wash., in one of the 36-hole
semi-final matches.

The Canadian earned his semi-
final match the hard way by de-
feating big Jim McHale of Mam-
aroneck, N.Y., one up, in one of
the closest quarter-final matches"
McHale was ihe last surviving
US. Walker Cup player in the
tournament,

While Mawhinney was making
his match, Walt McElroy, who
aiso advanced into the semi-
finals, was defeated 5 and 4 by
Mengert after surviving the first
five rounds of the tournament.

a measured mile at 368.85 MPH
in His 2,600-horsepower alumin-
um automobile, faster than man
had ever travelled.on wheels be-
fore, at Bonneville, Utah, 15
years ago today. He failed to set
an official world’s speed record,
motor trouble preventing the re-
turn run demanded by racing
rules. But he established an
official record of 394 MPH a few
__ weeks later.
