PARENT AND CHILD GOLP TEAMS
HAPPILY AWAITING TOURNAMENT
AT SPRINGHAVEN C. C. TOMORROW
Event Suggests Many
Other Similar Ones to
Clubs "Those Hose."
Clarey a Comer
By SANDY McNIBLICK
MOTIIEna and daughters, fathers and
daughters, as well as soma of onch and
sons, will gather at gripB tomorrow over
the links of the Bprlnghaven Country Club
In tho renoyated frater et Flllus ovent, now
entitled the .Parent and Child Tournament
Entries of all possible combinations have
' been received by Francis E.Warner, sec
retary of tho Golf Association of Phila
delphia, and for a Blmon'pur frolic the
event promises to be livelier than ever.
Mahy regret tho exit of tho one classical
name on tho regular schedule, but the
committees pf the past got tired of trans
latlng the Latin words and decided to put
tho new tltlo In unadorned English.
This will bo tho sixth time the event has
beeh edntosted. Last year Pattr J. P. Mac
Boan ct Flllus J. P.. Jr., won the title at
Whltortarsh. Tho family Is i expected to
enter a teatn ngatn, though It Is probable
that youthful Norman MaoBean will be
tailed upon to tako hla brother's place, the
latter being In the throes of winding up his
first year at Cornell.
! Similar Events Discussed
t The new cent haB brought up much dls
' eusston, of having other tourneys of a simi
le lar Mature at various clubs The annual
I husband and wife tourney, which Mr. and
Mrs F, a. Doylo won last year at North
-'. r Hills, la Immensely popular and many qulto-
expert teams could bo got together In the
' city for Blioh an avent on tho rcgulnr eched-
U16 of tho i3ol Association.
. Another tournamont that would be a fine
thing for Philadelphia golf, which depends
on tho youth of tho section, Is an event In
Which tho "child" part of tho team would be
limited to a tendor age, children up to 11
j years, for Instance. North Hills and other
i clubs have regular classes for children, and
many of tho youngsters show fine class. At
tho present time there Is really no tourna
. 'ment for them, because the going In the
, Junior championships Is slightly too rapid
for them. Chlldron llkoly would bo a bit
shy about entering a tournament all by
w their tiny solves, but with a stern and fond
J parent to Bteady them and promise them a
licking If they did not help bring homo tho
k prlie, there might bo some Interesting golf.

Feminine Cigarettes nnd Golf
Just as milady's cigarettes havo crept Into
tho best hotols and restaurants, to be not
only tolerated, but encouraged, so are they
taking possession of tho country clubs.
Tho latest Is tho nocd of tho woman golf
er for puffs bctweon shots on tho golf
links to steady her nervcB, just as tho
masculine golfer needs them. Though .e
etiquette of scheduled matches seems tu
frown on femlnlno smoking, tho fad Is seen
In action many times In private contests,
In a discussion on economy during tho
rccont women's championships at White
marsh one of tho fair contestants decided
that cigarette bills were getting too high.
"Think I'll Just cut out cigarettes," she
said. "Just think of nil tho golf lessons
I could tako for the money I would save
every week."
Classy Clarey Stops Fighting
Edward Clarey, Woodbury's shining light,
who has made his bow with a bang to Phil
adelphia golf this season for tho flrst time,
has jumped Into local respect In only two
tournoys.
Ills great play nt Atlantic City was tho
feature of the classic spring tourney there,
and ho went a long "way toward winning
tho Silver Cross next month when ho got
167 for tho first 38 holes at tho Cricket Club
this week.
His game will develop rapidly In tho
next month. Ho admits now that his for
mer fault lay In his great desire to fight
tho ball Instead of treating it with due
respect. He formerly tried to knock the
cover off nnythlng. Ho now Is on the
right track and his rounds In tho recent
tourney proved It when he broko 80 both
times.

Tho world's greatest quarter-mllers are seen in action in the above photographs. In the upper picture Mnxcy
Long, of tho Now York A. C, was snapped when ho finished the fastest quarter mile ever run, covering the
distance over a straightaway course in 47 seconds nt Guttenburg Race Track in 1000. Meredith was caught
ty tho camera man as he finished his remarkable quarter in the intercollegiate championships, sprinting tho
.10 on a circulnr track in 47 2-fi seconds, lowering Long's circular track mark by two-fifths of a Bocond.
Ihero is a great similarity in the style of the two romnrkablo runners. Even though Long had retired long
oeforo Meredith over was heard of, tho form and notion of the duo almost is tho same, both keeping arms high
in sprinting, with head well forward nnd always apparently running with plenty in reserve. In both races
snapped abovo the winners outclassed their competitors, as shown by tho pictures.

HAVBUFOBD, Pa, June 1. By winning-
two matches tn less than an hour. Miss
Molld. DJurstedt, holder of the women's
national turf, clay and tennis tltlo, today
advanced to the final round of the Wo
men's Pennsylvania and eastern States
Championship In progress on the turf
courts at the Merlon Cricket Club, Haver
ford. In the round before the semifinal
Mlsa BJurstedt defeated Miss Florence Bal
lin, West Bide, -2, 6-0, and In the semifinal
she Won over Mrs. Robert Leltoy, also of
West Bide,, at 6-0, 6-1.
In her five singles rnatches to date Miss
DJurstedt has not dropped more than two
games in any one set and has lost only
elg-ht Barnes in ten sets. In both of today's
matches Mies DJurstedt played almost en
tirely at tha base line and sometimes a
few feet outside. From this point she
drove beautifully with both forehand and
backhand, on very rare occasions sno o
vanced to a position at mtdcourt, where
aha usually killed off any sustained rally
with a well-executed volley or half volley.
Miss BJurstedt'a drives had lots of pace
and were kept uncomfortably close to her
opponent's base line. In her first match
today, Miss DJurstedt scored 28 points In
tha first set and 20 In the second, against
16 hr Miss Balim 'fn the flrst and 19 in
the second, ft grand total of 84 to 25. In the
pther matches points Were 64 for Miss
BJurstedt. 28 In one set and 38 In the other,
to 89 for Mrs. IeRoy, 11 In he .first and 28
In the second. Mrs. fcelloy's one game In
tha second was a prolonged affair, In which
there were a doien deuce points.
Miss Agnes Kennedy, Merlon, advanced
to the serol-flnal In consolation singles by
defeating Miss Marje Coates. also of
Merlon, at 6-4, 6-4, and in consolation dou
bles Mies Elsa Heath and Miss Emelie
Kennedy reached tho final, winning In tha
semlnjia.lB over Mrs. V. N, Bleg and Miss

FOR tho first time In 10 years, Maxey
Long's world's record for tho 440-yard
straightway is In danger. The marlc has
stood Blnce October 4, 1000, when the Co
lumbia flyer covered tho distance In 47
seconds flat on tho old
.. Guttenberg race track
"A over In Jersey, and was
thought good cnougn to
stand for nil time, until
Ted Meredith began
smashing records this
year. Ted's 47 2-5 for
tho quarter around a
curvo In tho Intorcol
lcglatcs startled tho
wise persons, and now
it Is predicted on nil
sides that tho great
Pennsylvania runner
will tako a terrible fall
out of tho straightway
mark tho first time ho
II. vr. MAXWELL, tries It.
Whether or not these persons nre right
will be learned next Sunday when Mere
dith and several other fast men will appear1
on the Sheepshead Bay Speedway, New
York, In the gameB held under the auspices
of the American Liberty Day Celebration.
TnvHntlnnn have been sent to Blnga, Dis
mond, the colored marvel from tho Uni
versity of Chicago; Westmoro Wlllcox. of
Harvard; BUI Moore, of Princeton; Tom
Hatpin, of tho Boston A. A and holder
Of the world's Indoor record for the quarter
mile and Frank Sloman, of tho Olympic
Club', of San Francisco, who made sensa
tional time for tho two furlong oyent last
summer.
Final examinations and the Western In
tercollegiate meet next Saturday night pre
ent some of the Western nthletes from
competing, but the Easterners will be good
enough to furnish keen competition. This
competition Is necessary for record break
ing, for the runners must extend themselves
from Btart to finish If extraordinary time
ia mnrtn TjiHt Saturday In the Intercolleg-
iates. Meredith was pushed hard by Wlllcox
In the first 300 yards and tho time was so
fast that he was able to slip 2-5 of a second
from the old mark.
Meredith Is now running better than at
any time In his wonderful career and there
Is no doubt In the minds of experts but
ii.ni hn win he able to do the 440 In less
than 47 seconds, providing conditions are,
ideal.
On Auto Track
The race will ho run on the automobile,
race track, which Is two miles In circum
ference with a straightaway of a half mile.
Tho track Is of boards built on Bteel gir
ders, which makes It springy, and it Is
said to be remarkably fast. A few days
ago Homer Baker, the International half
mile champion, tried It out, and after
running through a half mile without pace
or competition In 1:57 1-5 he said he
considered it the fastest board track he
had ever run on. This being the case, and
with Ted -Meredith running In his best
form, the chances of a new reoord nre
bright. Of course, a great deal depends
on the competition he will have. If It Is
impossible to .bring all the best quarter
mllers of the East together for this record
trial, the race will be changed Into a.
-handicap affair and several of the best
quarter-mllers around New York will be
given liberal handicaps on Meredith so as
to make him extend himself.
The committee In charge has arranged to(
have at least three timers at the 300-ard
mark and three more at the 400 metres
mark so that In case the records nre bet
tered at these intermediate distances the
winner will receive proper credit In the
official record books. There is little likeli
hood of the 300-yard record of 30 3-5 sec
onds, made by Bernle J. Wefers, of the
New York Alhletlo Club, at Travera Island,
N Y on. September 28, 18S6, being dis
placed in a, record trial of this kind, but
the best record for 400 meters made at
the Stockholm Olympics by C, D.. Reld
path, namely. 48 1-5 seconds, will no doubt
be broken.
Precautions Taken.
Every precaution Is being taken by the
committee In charge to avoid tho possi
bility of the race being marred as was the
record trial at the Pana.'ma.T'aclflc Inter
national Exposition last summer, when Ted
Meredith and the other contestants were
called back after having Vuu 220 yards of
their quarter mile, owing to the fact that
the timers were unable, to catch tha flash
of the gun a' quarter of a. mile away from
the- start.
On this occasion an automobile will be
furnished for the. tuners. This car wltt
tiring tha watehjhajders to tha aUrtlnf
poit ana as bsjob as wet starter nre nn
vldcd so that thcro will bo no chance of
the men Bllpplng at the start.
Of nil tho standard distances tho quar-ter-mllo
raco Is considered by athletes as
the most difficult. It has been classed as
a mlddlc-dlstanco event by many. Years
ago, perhaps, It did belong to tho list of
middle-distance events, but wo don't think
It should be considered as such today. It
should be considered as a long-dlstanco
Bprlnt because of tho records that have
been made by our quarter-mllers. Today
an athleto who hopes to win nn American
championship nt this distance must bo a
sprinter and a real good sprinter at that.
Maxby Long's Record " n
For instanco, take the record of Maxey
Long. To run a quarter of a mllo In 47
seconds as ho did means that he must havo
been able to run a hundred yards In close
to 10 Seconds. Long was capable of such
a performance, as the records show that he
covered tho "century" on several occasions
In 10 seconds flat. "Ted" Meredith nlso
has negotiated 100 ynrds In 10 seconds.
Only recently he won the 100, 220 and 440
yards events in a dual meet in tlmeB that
stamp him as a great sprinter as well as
a wondorful middle-distance runner.
Meredith has all of tho requirements of
a good quarter-mller. In all of tho quarter
mile championship races of recent years, the
man who has been a good sprinter has
generally come thrSugh. To succeed as a
quarter-mller, a man not only nas to do
a Bprlnter, but he must be as game as a
pebble and well able to go the distance.
Meredith has shown that he has 'all of
these requirements and he has a good
chance to break the world's record for that
distance Sunday.
FINAL POLO GAME FOR

That Providence Record
Tho long giant winning streak has
brought back Into prominence that Provl
denco record mado In 1884, a record of 20
straight. Tho most remarkable featuro ot
this victorious span Is that Charley Bad
bourno pitched in 18 of tho 20 'games. "
Radbourno Btartcd the BpUrt on August
7 by beating New York, 4 to 2. Ho rested
tho next day while Provldenco upset Phila
delphia, C t9 0. Then, on August 0, Rad
bourno resumed again, beating Boston- 1
to 0, 3 to 1, 4 to 0 and 1 to 0. Radbourno
then beat Cleveland, 3 to 2, nnd Dotrolt, 4
to 2, resting for tho last tlmo on August
20, when Provldenco. again beat Detroit, 6
to 2. From August 21 to September 7 Rad
bourno won every game.
Horo Is tho complete record the- most
romarkable pitching achievement of all

able achievement was holding Boston to oft

Tho Providenco club Chat season num
bered, in addition to tha mighty Had
bourne, such players ai Bancroft. Lovett,
Farrell, Start. Dally. Irwin, Crane, Radford,
Murray, Carrbll, Denny, Bassett and Oll
Hgan. Tho Chicago club that was Overthrown
four times in the Provldenco sweep had
such stars as Anson, Pfcffer, Williamson,
Burns, Dalrympl. Kelly, Gore, '"Billy" Sun

sation. So there was no question about tho

The 1916 Feature
If we.had to pick ono outstanding feature
of tho new season, It would be this, beyond
any argument, viz , the brilliant return at
Christy Mathewson, starting his 10th year.'
Mathowson, back In April, officially was?

ROOSEVELT
As Mary Roberts Rinefaaft .
Sees Him
"There is something of the eternal boy in Theodore Roosevelt,
He loves his friends and hates his ehemls", detests subter
fuge and is quick to discover it, hates,' hypocrisy and likes
praise. If you think that this quality of boyishness is .not
what is wanted in a President, remember the eternal boyish
ness of Lincoln."
MA'RY ROBERTS RINEHART knows Teddy. She
writes of him freely,; with frankness concerning his,
faults, with restraint as to his sincerity, ability, pluck and '
independence. To her he is "a great American," what
ever betide his political ambitions. Read her article an
