'This question often comes up in locker room discussions. It is raised because Jimmy is popular with thousands of golf fans and they expect to find Demaret's name in the headlines more often. It's a question that is sure to be asked by the golf student who walks around the course' with Jimmy when he plays in an open tourna- ment.

By MARGERY MILLER New York--When a lady fills out a bathing suit it is one thing. But when she appears in running shorts and a sweat jacket, it is something else again. She hears catcalls, she hears arguments as to whether she is a lady, and, sometimes, she is accused of not even being a woman. Girls have taken jibes directed at them by both sexes and still con- tinued track careers. Herein les BABE DIDRIKSON mucl of their appeal to the sport- ing public. One can't very well boo athletes who are that much in love with their sport. The first girl who gained great fame by choosing to run was Stella Walsh. In 1930, when she was just 19, Stella was voted the Rodman in | Wanamaker international trophy for turning in the finest perform- ance at the Millrose A.A. track meet, in which she set a world's record for women in the 50-yard People became curious, and some of them were agitated. They de- manded to know what made Stella run. Interviewers discovered that the girl, who had been brought to this country as an infant, was a Polish citizen. That fact distressed the patriots who already were counting on her to win the next '| Olympics for the United States. In- terviewers also learned that Stella became a sprinter simply by visiting the playgrounds of Cleveland, where she lived, and begging to . be taught. She trained and worked hard from childhood. Over a num- ber of years she developed the high knee and closing rush of the top male stars. Sprinting was fun for her, and advisers found it difficult to keep her from training too much. By the end of 1931 Stella held 14 American, Polish and Canadian track records. ' She received the Silver Cross of Merit from the Po- lish government in recognition of 'established a mew A.A.U. record by her running performances. She had competed for Poland in the Wom- en's World Olympics at Prague. As her career unfolded, Stella proved her versatility. In 1932 she throwing the discus 127 feet, four inches. By 1935 she held national records for all distances from 40 yards to 1,000 metres. Last year she had enough left to take the 220- yard run and the broad jump at FELEN STEPHENS the national women's track and field championships in Buffalo. She still holds world's records for 60 metres, 200 metres and 220 yards. In the 1932 Olympics, held at Los Angeles, a new star rose to rival Stella. She was Mildred Babe Did- rikson, who took the javelin throw and 80-metre hurdles with world's record performances and finished second in the high jump to Phila- delphia's Jean Shiley, who set an Olympic record which still stands in winning, The same year Babe, a drawling girl from Dallas, won or tied for first place in six events at the na- tional women's track and field championships. Sportswriters, goggle-eyed, voted her the outstanding girl athlete of ing the facts. Of the 12 events for 1932 and felt they were understat- ing the facts. Of the 12 events for women in the national Babe had proved outstanding in seven--broad jump, shot put, javelin 'throw, 80- metre hurdles, baseball throw, dis cus throw, and high jump. Her low= est rating was in the discus event, in which she placed fourth, It readily became apparent, how- ever, that Babe's athletic accom- plishments were not confined to track. She was good at golf, bas- ketball, baseball, billiards, and vir- tually every other sport which has been heard of. Shortly after her participation in the Olympics an automobile concern used her picture in an advertisement, and although school senior from Fulton, Mo. they did so without Babe's consent, the act automatically relieved her of her amateur status in track. She turned to other sports. In recent years her concentration has been largely upon golf. The third in the trio of outstand- ing --omen track stars resembled Stella Walsh more than the Babe in that she was primarily a sprinter. An unknown 17-year-old high STELLA WALSH I startled the sports world in March of 1935 when she beat Stella Walsh at 50 metres. The girl, Helen Ste= phens, tied the record of 6.6 sec- onds to perform the feat at St. Louis in the women's national in- door championships. This farmer's daughter who never had seen a track meet before she competed in one asked, after the race was over, "Who's Stella Walsh?" That was her idea of humor. At the same meet Helen took the. shot put and the standing broad jump. In all of the events her form was highly unorthodox because she never had received proper coaching. But she just couldn't help being good. Six months later she set a new world's record for the 100 metres. Helen, who was nearly six feet tall and weighed 150 pounds; scored her greatest triumph in the 1936 Olympics at Berlin. She was one of the most popular members of the US. squad, having entertained sis- ter athletes with harmonica playing during the trip across the Atlantic, and her victory in the 100-metre dash was popular everywhere but in Poland. She had again defeated Stella Walsh, Poland's pride, and this time set a world's: record of 11.4 seconds in doing so. A Polish news- paper charged she actually was a man. Olympic officials promptly termed the story ridiculous; and Helen went back to Fulton a con- quering heroine. When Company. Drops In! ..
