When fishing to-day he hooked a four-foot kingfish, and in attempting to land his prey _sprained his shoulder so seriously that he was compelled to consult a physician, who ordered him to cease golfing for a fortnight. This has resulted in the cancellation of several tournament dates. He and Hagen will sail for England on May 1 to participate in the British open championship at Gleneagles,, match play, and other open events. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
