EWS AND COMMENT ON GOLF AND TENNIS OTHER LIVE ITEMS OF THE WORLD OF SPO
ftATES FOE THE LOCAL OPEN
GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP ARE SET
OVER TO FOLLOWING WEEK
Time Changed From Oc
tober 11 as Announced.
"Great" Scoring at
Sunnybrook
By SANDV McNIDLICK
THE3 vicissitudes of the Philadelphia
open Roll championship have Anally been
spiked.
After the setting; of many temporary
dates, postponed from the original sched.
.led date In August, the event has now
been set for the week of October IE. It
will be held cither Tuesday and Wednesday,
or Wednesday and Thursday, probably the
latter, at Phllmont
The date an decided upon and announced
yesterday was reconsidered when 1 was
found to conflict with the match play at
JJW York for the championship of the
Professional Golfers Association of the
United States, and with the I'ennsyhanla
open championship.
The local ought now to attract one of the
best fields of Its history, since there Is no
reason why It will not pull a comfortable
margin of the golfers gathered at Now
York.
Date to Stand
Those In charge of the local have gotten
weary of sidetracking It to mako way for
other professional tourneys, and It Is defi
nitely stated that tho date, as above, will
stand, no matter how many other tourneys
i crop In the same week.
More than sixty pros gothered yesterday
at Inwood Country Club, New York, In nn
effort to qualify for tho United States pro
fessional championship from the metropol
itan district
Twelve qualified and Incidentally rolled
up parts of J 800 for lilp pocket padding,
said stuffing being offered as prlxe money.
Walter Hagen, Bob MacDonald, Oil
Nlcholls, Tom McKamara, MacDonald
Smith and other famous pros wero among
those present.
Speaking of those coming under the
head of professional golfers, it might not
be at all amiss to mention the fact that
Francis Oulmet, former amateur and open
champion. Is still shooting a 111 golf, de
spite the fact that he Is commonly pictured
by his friends as being so weighed down
by the sorrows of being barred from ama
teur competition that ho never -wants to see
a golf club again.
Oulmet was sniffing- the piny breezes
nt Bretton Woods, N. H yesterday, and In
cidentally swinging a golf club or two. He
shot a 66 over the course, very neat, whilst
piCKWK posies uion&T ine course.

time and man. Oulmet was tinning the
long putts, bo the story goes. The young
golf hero Is evidently still right on his
game.

up there.
Two local golfers hung up tho grand
record between them of 195 strdkes for nine
holes. A gallery of prominent citizens
hurahed at the tljrllllng points of the play,
laid bets on the totals likely to be amassed
FA at each hole, proclaimed the victor, hooted
the loser and otherwise thoroughly enjoyed
the bout this week at what Is known as
the "Millionaires' Club."
Murdock Kendrlck, well-known lawyer,
drew the "roundest" rounds it applause and
made the gallery ejaculate the most, for he
went the nine holes In the lovely total of
It 106 wallops.
"I couldnt putt." said the barrister
Imply at the end of the round.
Kendrlck was tacked against Cornelius
Haggerty, a Democrat of local political
fathe. who hpnt thn fnrmAr tn n frnvyl
2 when he "only" ran up eighty-seven strokes
lor the nine holes. Haggerty gave Kon
drlck a handicap of eighteen strokes, so
that he won handily by three strokes.
But he wasn't satisfied.
"If I only could have got my driver work
ing," said Haggerty wistfully at the end of
the nine holes.
Grudge Match
The match was evolved from a lunch
hour wranglo between the grouping at tho
festive board. Not a few toasts and threats
Wero registered.
William Flndlay Brown, Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, opined that there was
nothing to It, end laid his hopes on Ken
drlck, provided his choice was given a bonus
of two strokes per hole.
David Smyth, a former Director of Pub
lic Safety, felt the other way about It, so
there was plenty of opposition.
Judge "Joe" Patterson consented to act
as referee, and the match was on. Other
golf at the club was suspended for the day
and all the gathering feasted on shots such
as were never made before and many which
will probably never be seen again.

COACH TOBIN SAYS
HIS TEAM WILL
WIN FROM PENN
West Virginia Tutor Visits
Franklin Field and
Watches Practice
BEST ELEVEN IN HISTORY
By NEIL MATHEWS
If the University of West Vlmlnla foot
ball team Is as confident as Tobln, Its
coach, wo will have a hard time tomorrow
afternoon. Tobln visited Franklin Field
yesterday nfternoon and watched us run
through signals. We went through the
entire list of plays, all of -which wilt be
usea Giturdav. and the visitor had a chance
to see what wo had.
After the practice Dob Polwell went over
to Tobln and said: '
"Well, what do you think of our team
and what are you going to do to us Satur
day? I heard you are pretty good this
yoar."
"We havo the best team that ever rep
resented tho school," replied Tobln, "and
wo nre coming here not to give you some
prnctfco, but to give you a licking. Every
ono connected with the team Is confident
wo will win and I believe It myself.
Has a Great Team
'Tho team is composed of local talent,
that is, students from that section ot tho
country, with one exception Lungren, who
was at Swarthmoro Trcp last year. We
ha-ve been practicing for somo time and
the players are in great shape. We ex
pect to have a successful season and hope
to get off to a good start on Saturday.
"I am sorry we have not a game with
Pitt thin year, because we would beat them.
Washington and Jefferson nlso should be
defeated. It might sound funny for me
to be so optimistic, but I have be.en work
ing with the West Virginia team and be
lieve me, we havo the goods. Just watch
us on Saturday."
This shows what we are going up against
tomorrow, nnd we are prepared for It. We
nre not making any claims to greatness,
but Bob Folwell has taught us quite a little
football In the last week and every man on
tho Penn team knows that he Is playing on
a winning eleven this year. We will stop
Weit Virginia, and don't forget it. It will
be a hard game, but that's -what we want
Tho harder the better at this time of the
year, and we will be ready for the big
games which start1 the latter part of next
month. .
Tobin Sees Plays
I was surprised yesterday when Folwell
called us together at the start of the prac
tice and told us to run through all of our
plays, regardless of the visit of tho West
Virginia coach It Is Just another charac
teristic of Folwell, and we are learning
moro about him every day. lie does not

The rlrnl attraction of the Horse Show
at Bryn Mawr deprived many tennis en
thusiasts of the privilege of witnessing
one of the best contested women's tennis
matches staged here this fall yesterday,
when Miss JMwlna Ilensel, of Merlon, de
feated Mrs. W. P. Newhall. of Clerman
town. In tho final round of the second an
nual tournament for the Individual cham
pionship of the Women's Interclub Tennis
League, at tho Merlon Cricket Club. HaVer
ford. The scores wero 8-8 and (-4.
By her victory Miss Ilensel qualified to
meet the holder of the challenge cup, Mrs.
Gilbert Harvey, of the Philadelphia Coun
try Club, In the challenge round this after
noon. Mrs. Harvey has played In ex
cellent form this season, and only last
week she captured the women's Phlladel-
JL
phla and District singles championship at
St Martin's, she will need to be at her
best this afternoon If she hopes to win a
second leg on the challenge cup, which must
be won three times before It becomes the
absolute property of, any one player.
Miss Hensel'a playing yesterday was a
revelation to the gallery, composed of Miss
Marlon Toulmln, Miss Gertrude Holds and
three mere men. She drove remarkably
well on both forehand and backhand, with
good length. Iota of pace and rare ac
curacy. Her cross-court shots hugged the
sideline or shaed the corners for many
well-earned points, and she employed an
overhead straight service with telling effect.

This style is shown in both
