By SANDY McNIBLICK
Rays of the morning sun revealed a new
figure today on tho local fcmlnlno golf
throne. Her kingdom la broad and her
subjects number hundreds. The new ruler
won her sceptre by right of might
"Long 'live the Queen I"
A long putt on the "wlcltcd 12th" for a
par 3 won the women's championship
crown of Philadelphia for Miss Mildred
Caverly, the fair 23-ycar-old captain of tho
Cricket Club ti-am, yesterday nt White
marsh. Tho coronation of tho new con
queror saw the downfall of Mrs. Ronald
II. Barlow, champion for so long that sho
had almost como to bo considered In
vincible. Crushing Defeat
Miss Caverly absolutely swamped Mrs.
Georgo S. Munson In tho finals, only giving
her one hole In the match. This was tho
first, when Miss Caverly got In tho bunker
ana needed 7 to the other's c. Mrs.
Munson, who had beaten Mrs. Barlow the
day before, thus considerably smoothing
the way for tho youthful champion, was
badly off her game.
The large, fan-shaped gallery burst Into
prolonged and happy cheering when the
12-foot putt on tho 12th marked the
coronation of the new queen, and tho quick
congratulations of Mrs. Munson mado the
pleasure of tho fans unanimous. The de
feated finalist showed her good sports
manship by giving all credit to the deadly
shots of the new champion and saying
never a word about her own wavering
shots.
"Mrs. Munson can play much better golf
than she did, and I Just happened to catch
her when she was badly off her game,"
said Miss Caverly today. "If she had been
going at her usual speed I wouldn't have
had It so easy."
Long Struggle
The triumph ot Miss Caverly follows a
period of five years In the field of golf
endeavor. Her first tourney was In Wash
ington four years ago while she was stilt a
schoolgirl. Sho began playing regularly
Instead of once or twice a month, as she
had dono previously, and soon made tho
Cricket Club team. She has never won
a mjsdal for qualifying rounds, though she
has won many prizes. The only title she
has ever won until the glittering cognomen
she now possesses Is the championship of
the Cricket Club, which she annexed last
fall. This was really the beginning of her
rise to fame.
Last summer her game wnB In a terrible
state. She was capable of fine golf, but
could never get going consistently. Her
victory at her home club, even If Mrs. Clar
ence H. Vanderbeck, champion of America
and a member of the qjub, didn't play, was
jum wmu sue neeaea to encourage ner, ana
she has proved a "tartar" to tho opposition
ever since.
Has Battled Big Three
Miss Caverly was beaten by Mrs. Vander
beck last yenr at the Country Club, but only
after a most perverse match. Not a break
of the whole round favored Miss Caverly,
ller long drives found putts, while the shots
of Mrs. Vanderbeck all seemed to bring up
In the good lines. Ill fate was with her to
the 16th, where she was beaten. On the
west course at Merlon last year Miss Cav
erly took Mrs. Barlow to nhe I8th hole,
where she lost to a 6. She had led Mrs.
Barlow at the 15th by a margin of two
holes. She was physically weary at the last
hole, and could Tiot drive the long carry
over the quarry-like rough up the heights.
Getting out of the rough cost her two
strokes. Otherwise she would have beaten
Mrs. Barlow. Miss Caverly won from Mrs.
Caleb F. Fox at Huntingdon Valley this
year after a round of fast golf. She has
beaten most of the other players that have
any claim to the title.
When her game was wabbly last year at
the time of the Berthellyn Cup, Miss Cav.
erly Was an "easy mark" for Mrs. G. Henry
Stetson, who ousted her. but the new cham
pion showed her "comeback" this year by
beating Urs. Stetson at Whltemarsb this
week.
CORNELL LEADS IN QUALIFYING
MEN IN L C. A. A. A. A. EVENTS
The Cornell idea in the intercollcgintea is to qualify athletes in cVery
event. The system is a good one. It failed in only one event yesterday, the
Ithacans placing men in every event excepting the broad jump. Tho number

The Next Upset
In this mysterious season of swat no one
can tell what tho next upset will be. Hero
wo nave nt tno pink cure of June the
Washington Nationals and Cleveland In
dians setting the paco In a league where
tho Tigers and White Sox are down in the
mire. Wo also have had the astounding
caBe of tho Giants who dropped to the bot
tom with the speed of a steel girder dropped
from a Rkyscraper and then bounded up
again after tho mnnncr of a rubber ball.
It has been a queer, quaint campaign.
And now It Is about time to look for an
other upset cither for tho Browns to
bound on to the top or for tho Mackmen
to arrive In that vicinity. But the most In
teresting point ahead Is the date set, if
any, when Tigers, Red Box and Whlto Sox
do their parndlng. Or do they Intend to
parade this season?
The Greatest College Player
"Sister," says Fielding Yost, "Is the best
college ball player I over saw, and I have
been watching thorn for 20 years."
8lsler Is one of tho best we ever sow. But
other college players not to bo overlooked
are Christy Mathowson, Dave Robertson,
Eddie Plank, Fred Tenney, Eddie Collins
and a dozen or so more.
Yost says thnt Slsler would have made a
wonderful end for tho Wolverine eleven, but
when tho crack ball player reported to the
squad Yost advised him to give up football.
"Ho was the only good man I .over advised
to pass up football," says the Michigan In
structor. "I hated to do It, for I needed
him badly, but It seemed a shame for a man
with such n baseball future to take any such
chance with his arm." "
The Winning Streak
The psychology of the eiact science of a
long winning streak anything beyond 10
or 12 games is hard- to explain.

BALANCE OF CORNELL TEAM AND PENN'S POOR SHOWING FEATURE OF I. C. A. A. A. A. TRIA
ELIMINATION OP PENNBEFORE
FINALS OF'INTERCOLLEGIATES
POINTS OUT NEED OF SYSTEM
. !..
Past Supremacy of Red and Blue Due to Mike
Murphy's Thoroughness, While Cornell Is'
Profiting" by Moakley's Coaching
A GLANCE! at the list of men qualified by the various colleges In the trials for
the Intercollegiate Championships must bring home in a forclblo manner to
all Pcnnflylvnnlans the noed of systematic coaching and training. The contrast
between the work of the wonderful Cornell team and Pcnn in the trials is so
great that there is nat comparison. Pennsylvania has tost sight of the fact that
mo inject or tnia competition is team wont ana system nnu ims necn specializing
too much in Individuals.
On the other hand, Cornell, with tho wonderful Moaktey handling Its squad,
ban built Up a system and year after year a team Is developed, and not a small
group of individual stars. When Ponnsylvanlans look back a few years to tho
days when a well-balanced team waa devotoped and picked up a few points here
and there, which, added to the points gathered by tho atars, gUve tho Red and
Blue several championships and mado it always a contender, they cannot help
but reallro that tho University Is rapidly retrograding in this branch of athletics.
Penn qualified only five men, two of whom earned the right to compete In
the semifinals of two events today, giving the Red and Blue only soven chances
for points in tho 11 events for which trials were held yesterday. Two men
qualified in tho 880-yard run and ' n In tho polo vault, which meant that there
wo only three other ovonts, barring tho one and two mllo runs, in which Pcnn
waa given a chanco to score points.
Tho blaster Hand of Moakley Apparent
THIS is quite different from tho prospects of Cornell after tho trial heats.
Ithacans qualified 18 men and wcro entitled to representation In the flnnl
f boats In 10 of tho 11 ovonta for which trials wcro held. Tho broad Jump was the
only event in which Cornell failed to qualify a man, and only the unusual calibre
ot tho men competing In this event shut out tho Ithacan entries. As tho ono
and two mllo events, for which no trials wore held, nre always monopolized by
Cornoll's great dlstanco runners, it Is not surprising that they wcro betting 3 to 1
on the Ithacans against the field in Boston last night.
Cornoll's track matorlal Is not any better than nt Pennsylvania, but It has
been developed in a more systematic manner, which, by tho way, la a feature
of Cornell athletic history In major sports In recent years. Tho work ot Cornell's
team yesterday proved beyond doubt that Moakley Is in a class by himself as a
track coach, and until Pennsylvania finds a man who can follow out tho work
started by the lato Mike Murphy tho Red and Blue will continue to trail Cornell.
Laweon Robertson Is reported to havo bcon selected to coach the Red and
Bluo next fall, and many bollcvo ho will put Pcnn back on the map, but thcro
aro others who bellovo that Nate Cartmell, the famous sprinter, Is better qualified
Tor the position. Cartmell was a great favorite of Mike Murphy, and If tho
greatest of all trainers had lived Nate probably would bo Ponn's coach now.
Murphy was grooming Cartmell for the position and favored his appointment
Penn will do well to consider him seriously before selecting Its next coach.
Pcnn Eliminated Before Trials
THE completo failure of ita team Is a bitter pill for Pennsylvanlans. It has
been years since a Pcnn track team was eliminated before tho finals had beon
run, but such is the case. If every Pcnnsylvanlan who qualified wero to finish as
high as possible Penn would have only 33 points, whereas Cornell Is reasonably cer-
tain to beat this mark.
The Ithacans' rise to supremacy In track athletics has been gradual. It
began when Jack Moakley was appointed coach, and has been due almost entirely
to tho systematic manner In which ho has done his work. Once upon a time
Yale and Harvard monopolized the points in the Intercolleglatcs, but when Mlko
Murphy got Ills system working at Penn tho Red and Blue catno to tho front in
tho latter 90's and was supremo until Murphy returned to Yale.
Murphy' second switch back to Penn again brought her to tho front, but
the steady advance of Cornell, under Moakley, made the Ithacans dangerous
at all times. Then came the death of Murphy, with tho gradual decline of Penn
sylvania, which leaves Cornell supreme. Yale's wonderful material and tho
consistent coaching by Johnny Mack, another first-class trainer, havo enabled tho
nils to remain in tho front rank, but Penn has gone tho other way. Tho right
man may put Penn on top again within two years, as tho material is excellent.
Let us hope ho Is selected to succeed Boctor Orton, who has resigned.
Phils and Giants in Grand Shape
THE PbIIHe3 and Giants got off to a good start in the most Important East vs.
East series, and apparently are In better shaptt for this duel, which will havo an
important bearing on tho National League pennant race, than the Dodgors and
tlcularly true of the Braves, as even Rudolph has been batted hard In his recent
tlcularly true of tho Braves as even Rudolph has been batted hard In his recent
games. Ruelbach has shown the most consistent form of the Boston pitchers, but
he cannot win a game, as he Invariably Is hooked up against the star of the oppos
ing 'teum.
Moran's team played tho same last, clean cut ball which was tesponslble for
tho winning of the pennant bast season, and also showed a powerful "punch"
though only one run was scored. Four times a Phllly player came within Inches of
a home run, when drives crashed tgdtnst the right field fence or to the bleacher
wall in left. This was done against tho best pltchor on the Brooklyn staff at tho
present tune and better resulta racy be expected against mediocre pitching.
The Giants in outclassing the Braves won their fourteenth straight victory, '
all of which have been won aw.iv from home. McGraw's team displayed an at
tack which amazed the Boston fans and the Braves never had a chanco. It is a
pity that the New York fans will not have an opportunity to see the Giants until
the end 'of next week, as tho winning streak probably will be broken before
McGraw's men go home.
While the Phils were gladdening tho hearts of the local fans with a brilliant
Victory the Athletics lost a tough game to Washington. Elmor Myers, who had
won six straight games, went down to defeat, although ho allowed the Senators
only five hits, two of which were scratchy. He would have won had it not been
for a slow grounder bounding over Mclnnls' head with two men out. Both Wash
ington runs scored on this fluke hit.
Cleveland Scribes Boost Athletics
HENRY P. EDWARDS, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, who was hero with tho
Indians, Is of the opinion that Manager Mack surely will come bock next sea
son. Ernest Lanlgan, the world's champion baseball statistician, who now is with
the Cleveland Leader, also thinks well of the Mackmen, and says that Connie's team
looks as good aa any in the league at tho present time, barring the Indians and
Washington. In the Plain, Dealer of Friday, Edwards says:
"In Bush Mack has a hurler who will rank right up with Johnson. Leonard,
Morton and Caldwell. In Myers he has a phenomenal youngster, whose ability
should not be Judged by the facility with which the tribe swatted him. Mclnnla
la Just as good aa ever; Strunk Is better. Lajole and Walsh are playing great ball,
while Pick, the veteran minor leaguer. Is not bo bad at third. Wally Schang
ranks among the best catchers of the league, while in Meyer Connie has picked
up another real backstop. Witt, the 18-year-old shortstop, ia a phenom. There is
no discounting that fact.
"Mack, however, does not intend to stand pat with those men. Just as soon
lis tho high schools, seminaries and colleges turn loose their students In June,
Connie will try out a host of fjiture Barrys, Coombses, Planks, Collinses and
Benders."
- Collins Has Little Chance to Manage White Sox
IT HAS been said that Eddie Collins is in line for Clarence Rowland's position as
manager of the White Box, but we get it from an excellent source that Mr.
Comisjcey, owner of the expensive cast, Js very much disappointed with Collins
and that there" is not a chance for the former Mackman to land the position.
One Chicago scribe, who is pretty close to Comlskey, declared jvhen the White
Sox were here that "Commy" willingly would part with Collins fjll his expensive
contract if he could make a tradp.
It also is said that Collins gladly would como back to the Athletics and work
under the terms of Ms old contract, which was really tho cause of the breaking
up of the famous machine, but Mr. Mack says that ho is perfectly satisfied to let
Ihlnes rest as they stand. One of the things Mack Is determined to do ja to
develop a second baseman the equal of the famous Collins, and he will work
harder with his next second baseman than he ever did with a recruit.

THIRTEEN" IS UNLUCKY,
DESPITE GOLFERS' CLAIMS
By GRANTLAND RICE
THERE are some people who say that 13 three are very fine putters and that In
. . ni I. I mnnv ln.tnni.OU I unr a..nArUAAl ... I. nn
J. Isn't an unlucky number. Perhaps It
isn't. Yet Francis Oulmet was the thir
teenth nmateur to win' the amateur cham
pionship of the United States, and today
Oulmet Is out of tho fold In the unlucklest
position that ever befell a leading amateur
In any land.
With Oulmct's present retirement It will
be Interesting to see how many of the 13
champions will be able to compete at Merlon
In September. Those who will not competo
In the big event are Charles B. MacDonald,
Henry J. Whlgam. Plndlay Douglas. Her
bert Harrlman. II. Chandler Egan, Harold
Hilton, Louis James, Walter J. Travis and
Francis Oulmet. This leaves only four title
holders of tho past to start again Robert
Gardner, Jerome Travers. William C.
Fownes, Jr., and Eben M. Byers. Nine of
the 13 champions, or ex-champions, will not
compete for various reasons, but Oulmet's
Is the only enforced retirement of, the lot.
The Big Three of the Lot
Leaving out Harold Hilton, tho only out
sider to win on American turf In an ama
tour championship, It would be hard to
pick tho greatest player of the remalnlt-r
12. But It Is at least safe enough to Bay
that Travers, Travis and Oulmet have
achieved greater renown and have turned
more sensational performances than all the
others combined.
Here are their leading records:
Travers Four times amateur champion;
open champion.
TravIs-Three times amateur champion;
British amateur champion.
Oulmet Amateur champion: ppen cham
pion. Travers and Travis, of course, have a
big advantage oyer Oulmet, who has only
been In active competition for four years.
Of the three, while Walter J. was never
able to win an open championship, he Is
the only one able to make a first-clans
showing In the British amateur melee.
Travis won In 1004 and thereby put Amer
ica on the golfing map of the world for the
first time. Neither Travers nor Oulmet were
able to make any showing In England, but
Oulmet struck the second great blow for
American golf when he rolled back Harry
Vardon and Ted Ray at Brookllne In 1913,
unquestionably the greatest Individual per
formance In all the history of amateur golf,
wro match these two great rivals Travers
has four U. 8. O. A. championships and
the open title, certainly the leading home
achievement bereft of any foreign compli
cations or competition.
Some Characteristics
These three among them have won eight
American championships, two open cham
pionships and a British amateur, "a com
blnatlon of records something more than
notable. The similarities In many of their
characteristics form Interesting studies. As,
for example, all three are;
First. Exceptionally fine putters.
Second. Determined match players, capa
ble of unusual concentration
Third. Fine iron players and especially
good at the short approach game.
But the main point to notice Is that all
many Instances It was supcrherolc wqik on
me puiung green that brought many ot
these triumphs.
. When Walter J. Travis won tho British
amateur, nlthough playing well In other
ways, ho gave an exhibition of putting that
has never been surpassed. Old Benny Bay
ers,, told us last fall he was betting oven
money on Travis to sink putts of 10 and 12
and 15 feet In Walter J.'s final match, and
that toward tho finish ho could find no
takers, whatever tho distance. It was
uncanny putting more than anything else,
or as much as anything else, that gavo Oull
met a tie with Vardon and Ray. The rec
ords will show that these three have accom
plished more with the putter than any oth'er
three amateurs In the history of golf.
The Four Left -
With nine ex-champlons missing, the four
left who have won the title beforo will all
be on hand at Merlon. But Travers and
Gnrdner will play little tournament golf be
yond this one championship, ns both are
pretty well tied up at work. It Is also
worthy of note that these four champion
ship survivors are all first-class putters, but
In other respects their games differ
widely. It lias been 10 years slnco Kb
Byors won and six year since Bill Fownes
finished in front. Fownes had his best
chance to repeat the semi-final nt Ekwanok
when he and Oulmet had one down and
two to play Jn the semi-final round . While
Byers has never been able to go the dis
tance since his victory at Englewood, ho has
played much fine golf. In 113 at Garden
City, after being five down at the end of the
first round, lib carried, Evans to the thlrty
nlhth hole. And the nexj year he beat
Chick In the first -round at Ekwanok In
one of the most exciting contests ever seen.
But while Fownea and Byers will carry
respect, no matter what golfers they meet
at Merlon, Travers and Gardner among
the title holders will bear closest watching.
It has ben three yeais now since Jerry won
his last amateur title, and the Open Cham
pion Is a bit more than keen to regain his
old place and make it five times.
