Iwgj'e Phillies Strong for Twilight Baseball
Washington club likes twilight baseball. They have proved it by
ylng more extra round games than any other two clubs in the major
$iaie this year. But the Senators haven't anything on our own Phils.

thirteen times and the Cubs hit safely nineteen times, but the clouts
well scattered and the pitchers so airtight In the pinches that only

and the tie will be broken when they clash

CLASS GOLF TOURNAMENT HAS BEEN
, CHANGED TO EIGHTEEN HOLE MATCH
F)LLOWIN'G a puggestlon made In
the Hvenino Public Ledoeh of
June 26, when it was dcliled to post
pone the amateur championship unlll
the fall and then substitute for It a
thlrty-slx-hole medal play competition,
the executive committee of the Golf As
sociation of Philadelphia as changed
the method of playing ihe class tourna
ment scheduled for the Merlon Cricket
Club next week. Instead of fcelng a
three-day affair at match play, It will
oe an eighteen-hole medal competition,
and will be held on Thursday, July 25.
Here Is, what was suggested on June.
.5'
"The next' tournament, which Is listed
for thiee days, will be the class tourna
ment, which is scheduled for July 24, 25
and 26 at tho Merlon Cricket Club.
While there Is no doubt that a fairly
large field will compete It might be well
right now to change the cendlt.ons and
make it a ihlrty-slx-hole affair on a
medal handicap basis. The same day the
ninth annual midsummer handicap com
petition will be played over the same
course.
Would Meet With Favor
"There could he the same number of
prizes with medals or whatever the as
sociation intends to give for eacl divi
sion. It will be remembered that Class
A Includes players with handicaps from
eleven to fourteen. Class B fifteen to
eighteen ,lnclusle and C,ss C alneteen
and ovtjr.
"This Is a tournament for the players
who are not good enough to play In the
amateur' event where It Is nec.sary to
have an association rating of ten strokes
or less, and It Is a tournament which
By WILLIAM H. EVANS
appeals more 40 the large class of play
ers who make golf the popular sport
that It is than any other tournament
held by the Golf Association with the
single exception of the dinner match,
wlilch will not be held this 5 ear.
Big Entry List Sure
"The men who are qualified to play
In the class tournament are just as busy
as those who are entitled to play In the
amateur affair. Many of these will
doubtless not be able to play In a three
day affair, biit if the affair is made a
one-day tourney, either as a handicap
affair with the classes kept separated or
a hcratch affair under the inie classifi
cation, there Is not the slightest doubt
that a large field ill turn out."
Tho executive committee believes
there will be a larger entryfllst for an
eighteen - hole tournament ' than for
thirty-six holes. The midsummer handi
cap and the class tournament will be
held the same day and for those who
wish to play in both it will mean only
eighteen holes In the midsummer
event there will be two prizes, one for
tho best gross and one for the low net.
Two Prizes in Each Class
The class tournament ill be held
according to the class qualifications. J
There will be two prizes In each class,
ono for the low gross and another for
the second low gross. In other words
tho midsummer .handicap will be an
eighteen hole medal play handicap and
the class tourney will be" an eighteen
hole scratch play event, the two events
being merged Into one.
Class A Includes all players having
an association nanaicap oi eleven
fifteen to eighteen strokes Inclusive and
Class C nineteen strokes and upward.
Any one can play In tho midsummer
handicap but no one will receive a "han
dicap In excess of eighteen strokes.
Those eligible to play In the amateur
championship, where" no one can play
unless he has a handicap of ten strokes
or less, can play In the midsummer
handicap; but on tho other hand these
players are barred from the class
tournament, which Is for players with
handicaps of eleven btrokes and up
ward. There will be an entrance fee of SI for
tho midsummer handicap and the same
fee for the class tournament. Players
must Indicate whether they will play
In one or both events. Naturally as both
tourneys are medal play affairs It will
not be possible for a player to play both
morning and afternoon. If he decides to
Play In both his card will count In both.
one as a 'medal handicap and the other
at scratch and In- the class In which
he properly belongs. Tho entrance fees
will all go to the war fund that the
local association Is collecting.
Maxwell in a Quandary ,
Norman H. Maxwell, who recently' at
tained his majority and is listed In
Class Al In the draft, lias been invited
to take Bobby Jones's place In the sc
ries of matches that the Atlanta young
ster, with Miss Alexa Stirling, the national-champion,
Is playing against Miss
IClalne Rosenthal and Perry Adair for
the Red Cross. These four arosched
uled to'play in a match at Brae Burn,
near Boston, on July 27 and at the
Wanamolsett Club at Providence the
next dav. Jones' Is also scheduled td
TH the next 'tennis tournament of-
any Importance for the' players liv
ing In this section not scheduled until
the 27th of the month, .these are what
one bright young man calls the "dog
dayB" of, the lawn-tennis circles. The
next tournament In "this vicinity Is the
play for the championship 'of eastern
Pennsylvania, which Is scheduled to
take place on the courts of the Cynwyd
Club July 27, 1
This annual event always Is a magnet
for, the best net players and the com
mittee hopes to make this season's
tourney a big success. Two days after
the opening of the play for the title of
eastern Pennsylvania the Atlantic City
Yncht Club will begin play for the
championship of Atlantic City.
Starting with the classic Seabright
tourney on the6th, August gives prom
ise of furnishing some thrills for the
tennis players. Following this comes
the play for the championship of south
ern Pennsylvania, which Will hn held
1 nh 4t.A HaaltlPl aMI.Ib r9 tt,A inAtnvA
Springs Tennis Club, Bedford Springs.
Play for the doubles championship, of
the United States will begin on August
12 on the courts of the Longwood Cricket
Club, while the South Jersey champion
ship tourney will get going five das
later -at the Ocean City Yacht , Club.
Following the seashore tourney bomes
the Delaware County titular play on
the turf of the Mllford Field Club, Mil
ford, Pike County, Pa.
On the 2Gth the blue-ribbon event of
the American court season will begin at
the West Side Tennis Club, Forest
Hills. The, titles to be decided are the
national singles, natlopal boys' and
junior, championship and (more than
likely the senior championship.
May Arrive Tomorrow
It Is the latter tournament that Is
causing he most comment In tennis
circles For the first time la many sea-''
sons it appears as though a foreigner
will walkjpff with the American classic.
The recent announcement that Ichlya
Kumagae, the greatest ,net player who
ever came out of the Far East, Is headed
for this country, has caused those on
this nido of tho Atlantic Ocean to go
over the record books and to see who
there Is left to successfully compete
with the Invader.
The last foreigner to win the national
singles championship was H. L. Doherty,
of England?" In 1903. Doherty had In
vaded this country wlfli his brother, R.
F. Doherty', In 1902, but he was unsuc
cessful In his attempt to lift the singles
crown, bowing to William A. Lamed In
the final match. But Awhile unable to
win the singles title ,the two- brother
cleaned up In the doubles.
They came here with a great reputa
tion acquired In England. R. F, Doherty
was the JSngllsh singles champion 1897-98-99
and .1900, while his brother held
the title from 1902 .to 1906, Following
their Invasion In 1902 they returned the
next ycar.-nod this time they cleaned
up In the singles, all-comers and In the
doubles. Since that time, however, tha
championship has remained In this
country.
Was Here inll?16
Ichlya kumagae Invaded this (country
for the first time In 1916. He came hers
virtually unheralded, but the manner In
which' he literally swept through thi
leading tournaments, such as the New
Yprk? State championship and the New
port Casino Invitation play, soon stamped
him bb one of the foremost contenders
for the national title.
I) The fact that Kumagae conquered
great players like William M. Johnston,
former national champion; "PccW"
Griffin, E. P. Lamed, Nathaniel OV.
Nlles and a host of others of lesser
skill during his whirlwind tour, will
lend additional Interest this year to
the Seabright and Southampton tour
neys,vfor It Is presumed the Mikado's
little, champion will take pari In thesa
fixtures.
Kumagae will find few to oppose his
triumphal march to more champion
ships and trophies for there is not a
man among the "first ten" of 1916 who
is not now In servltc with the army or
navy, except Kumagae himself, who
was ranked at Nd. E, and Robert Llnd
ley Murray, the spectacular jon of Cali
fornia. It Is doubtful whether Murray
will be able to get sufficient time off to
enter at Seabright, Southampton or
Forest Hills. He Is engaged In most
important work In a war manufacturing
plant and has not been seen upon the
courts this season.
Under these circumstances, there
does not appear any one capable of
saving the national title from taking a
trip to the Far East this year Pos
sibly William T. Tllden. 2d, of this city,
who won the national clay court title
at Chicago hist week, and who has been
playing the greatest game of 'his bril
liant career this season, may appear In
the breach to do battle with the flttle
man from overseas; but It is doubtful,
first, whether Tllden. now In the signal
corps, will be-nvallable at the national
champlorfshlp tournament ; and, second,
If he were to play, whether he would be
equal to the task of defeating Kumagae.
Athe
d the
strokes to fourteen Inclusive, Class B.play at Indianapolis with Chic Evans
against the winner and runner of t,he In
diana State championship on July 27.
Maxwell has been asked to play In ono
or the other as It Is, of course, Impos
sible for Bobby to be In two widely sep
arated places at the same time.
Maxwell s In a quandary, as
youngsters who have just reached the
age of twenty-one will probably be In
camp by August 1. Ho Is anxious to
help the Red Cross cause and he will
do so If his draft board will let him
take the trip. He Is very uncertain
about the big Red Cross match which
will be staged either nt the Cricket
Club or Whltemarsh on August 10 with
Miss Mildred Caverly, the local cham
pion, as his partner against Miss Stir
ling and Bobby Jones, while at the same
time Miss Rosenthal and Perry Adair
will play against Mis. Ronald H. Bar
low and Max Marston, If ho Is not In
camp he will, of course, play, but he
cannot say just now where he will be
on that date.

By CHARLES (CHICK) EVANS, Jr.
-When I whs at tho Mayfleld Count
try Club not lonar. ago3 met young
Ellsworth Augustus npd saw him play.
He is a towering young giant in fact,
I think he is at least six feet one
weighs probably 170 pounds, well dis
tributed. He Is starting out under fine
conditions for he has the advice of
that clever and experienced player, Joe
Bole. Every golfer who has come up ,
the long way knowH what It means to',
have the distance shortened i by the
Ikl.idly knowledge of one who knows.
Warren Wood and I played with
young Augustus one morning and saw '
him hit several balls that were simply
uncanny, and In addition w-o discovered -that
tfe js a fine putter, "Woody'
thought his Iron work was poor and. he
was probably right, but with time 'and
his present enthusiasm, all that will be
changed. He Is w-ell-td-do, and tliat
means that the expense of the same t
so hard upon most youngsters In the,
early stages wlll be easily mst by him.
When we were at Mayfleld Ellsworth
was planning to enter the jphlo State ,
championship, and I feel, that If he
played many holes as he did the eight
eenth at theMayfleld Country Club his
opponents would have 'a' tough time. This
hole Is 490 yards and Augustus made It
wltha drive, a mldlron and a putt, for
a three.
Another young chap who, gives promise
is 3(oung Ward, of the,Biue Hills Club, "
of Kansas City, They paired him pur
pbsely In a practice round with Bobby
Jones and he played the Georgia won
der all even. Unlike 'Augustus, yourta"""
Ward Is very slight,, much as I remem
ber myself to have been at hU. age. He
Is thin buwlry with symmetrical mus
cles. Maybe he could keep dry by "get
ting In betweenttte raindrops," as our
sporting writers wrote in those early
days. .. ,
I liked the way he went about the
game, Perhaps he swung a bit too fu,
but maybe that was,. caused by his de-' ,
sire to play well against Bobby Jones.
I saw him make one ery pretty ap
proach to the -eleventh, which showed
me (that he could use the mashi,.
