That he Is well capable of looking after his Interests In such a contest, how

The beautiful turfing and greens, with
the Improvement In the trapping In many of

old-time pro's best shots to the front, and he
will have plenty of opportunity to let loose'
his sparklets Gil finds for his partner in
the action one Wilfred Reld, the little

HofJfner to Represent America
America will be lepresented by Charlie
Iloffnei. of tender years and lemarkable
skill Phlladelphlans remember how Hoff
ner broke Into a tie for the fast Metio
pnlitan open last year and of the remark
able golf he has played In some of the
best open fields of the last two or three
seasons Hoffner holds the record of the
Phllniont course, being the pio there, and
he expects to eat up the corners of his own
backard Tom McNamara, a runner-up
foi the national open and a holder of the
Massachusetts open, also holds a whole

Mrs. B. "Strangely Enpugh"
Mrs. Ronald ,11. Barlow, Merlon's doughty
team captain, did not surprise any one, nor
did she accomplish the unexpected, when
she took the deist Cup, the new deist Cud.
for her own Initials as the result of yester
day's elghteen-hole medal play at Over
brook. Mrs. Barlow's 87 over the nine-
hole course foe two rounds was much too
low for the rest of the field, though Miss
Mildred Caverly, the Philadelphia cham
pion, shot an 89, Both these scores come
under the head of lovely, considering the
racing wind which blew hats and skirts
askew, not to mention the high-flying shots.
It was Mrs. Barlow's yearly salute to the
new season. She UkM to win the Initial
event and then ttla down for hr usual
brilliant grind through the season.
