NATION’S GOLFERS
WATCH CAREER OF
MAUREEN ORCUTT
NEW YORK, Apr. 16.—For wom
en’s national gold champion in the
near future New Jersey presents a
seventeen-year-old high school girl
who. for lack of competition in her
own sex, often plays with men and
defeats them.
The first thing ti*e gallary at a
turnament notices when Miss Mau
reen Orcutt is on the first tee is her
bobbed blonde locks, tied with a rib
bon of flaming red or other hue.
Then the distance that ball goes
overshadows all other considerations.
Her hitting is amazing, and has been
so since she started to play the game
as a little girl.
At the woman’s national tourna
ment at the Hollywood Golf Club,
Deal, N. J., four years ago, a mite of
an entrant who wore half-hose and
skirts the shortness of which was
trimmed by her size and age, and
not by fashion, stepped up to the first
ree in the qualifying round and caus
ed a chorus of surprised “ahs” when
she smashed the ball 225 yards, a
good drive for any golfer with regard
to sex or age. That was Maureen.
A storm came up shortly after that
drive and helped to run her score
up to 119, which failed *to qualify.
Miss Odcutt has had much experi
ence and her share of victories since
Then, having won the woman’s stat^
championship last year. When there
is no woman’s tournament for her to
enter, however, usually the only wor
thy opponents she can find are male
members of the White Beeches club
at Haworth, N. J. The men wel
come her as a competitor in all the
club fixtures, and in the club cham
pionship last fall she was runner up,
forcing the male victor to do a 74
while she took 79 on the difficult
course, which measures 6,496 yards.
Many good woman golfers have dif
ficulty with their irons, not having
the firmness of wrist essential for
a crisp and successful shot. Not
so Maureen. The length she gets
with irons would not be at all bad
for a professional. The mashie iron
is her favorite. Often she has reach
ed a green more than 400 yards
from the tee with a drive and an
iron. When her short game becomes
as good as her long game, experts
say, she should be unbeatable.
Mother Orcutt is a golfer, or rath
er was before she helped teach the
art to Maureen. Mrs. Orcutt just
had been runner up in the club wo
man’s championship of her sex when
she and Maureen played an honest
to-goodness match. Maureen won.
Then mother gave up the game, ex
cept for chaperoning Maureen to
tournaments, supervising her practice
and reminding her, if she is beaten,
that she is young and another year
is coming.
Miss Orcutt, in her short tourna
ment career, has won the junior title
of the New York Metropolitan dis
trict twice, and she has qualified
twice in the women’s national tour
nament.
When the snow covers the fair
ways at White Beeches Miss Orcutt
helps develop he nv lists by throw
ing a basketball as a member of the
high school girl’s team at Engle
wood.

BOTH MAJOR LEAGUES

cornea to winning baseball pennants, |
the eastern major league cities have

York has won twelve. Chicago has
taken eleven, Brooklyn five, Pitts
burgh four, Philadelphia two and Cin
cinnati one. St,. Louis has yet to
score in the pennant column. The
