Handicap Affair Lu Lu Temple to Hold
Annual Dinner Match This Afternoon
H "WILLIAM
mm: North Hills Country Club, which
L is the home of unique golf tourna
ments, will hold an unusual tourney this
afternoon In which the women will play
against the men in a dinner match.
The women will use the handicaps based
on their par of SI for the course, while
the men will play against 'their par
of 71. The women will be captained
by Mrs. Louis Block, while the men will
be captained by Preston Stuckey. Last
ear the HrRt match was played, and
the men very ungnllantly mado the
women pay the piper or tho steward.
Today the women are out for revenge
and hope to beat the men decisively.
Home of Unique Tournes
Among tlio other unique tournaments
held at North Hills is the left-handed
tournament, the c.nly one of its kind In
tho country: the husband and wife,
which was changed from the husband
and affinity, and a few weeks ago the
clergymen played in their first tourna
ment. Tho rourse is in fine playing condi
tjon, and the new greens, which ate
about two j ears old, are in veiy line
shape. There are a lot of very excel
lent holes at North HI1K and there
are a couple of quarries which arc used
to great effect as bazaids for the dilve
or approaches. The club Is a very hus
tling organization, and there is always
d, laige turnout for the various scheduled
Hatches, which begin early in the spring
and end late In tho fall.

Universal regret Is expressed over tho
untimely death of Harry H. Cornish.
There was no figure at the numerous
golf tournaments around Philadelphia
In the last decade more familiar than
his. He was a slender fellow, alvravs
well diesred and with a slight stoop to
his shoulders. Of late years he vvaa an
enthusiastic goiter and the last tourna
ment he played In Was the recent Shaw
nee vvhcie ho was the finalist In the
third sixteen. While ho dirt not rank
among the experts he got a lot of pleas
ure out of the game.
Passing of II. II. Cornish
He was a hard worker and he had
hundreds of friends among the local
golftrs. He never said or wrote an un
kind word about them, and if he could
not say something kind he wrote noth
ing at all.
He ran many of the women's tourna
ments, and at the various club tourna
ments bis experience hi handling
tourneys was of great help to those In
charge. Ke'foro he took jip golf ho was
a cricketer of no mean "calibre nnd he
plaved on the old Belmont eleven In
many matches.

'ROBBY' ENTERS ARMY H
WITH GREAT RECORD
Penn Men Regret Loss of
Track CSach. Commis
sioned First Lieutenant in
Army Air Service
WON 34 OF 42 TITLES
By EDWIN J. roLLOCK
WIIF..V Lawson' Itobertson "boards the
southern express for Mlnrola, Fla.,
Pennsylvania will lose the most valu
able .man ever to have had a hand In
the direction of Ited nnd Blue athletics.
Lawson Itobertson, coach, trainer,
adviser, comedian and friend, has so
warmed his way Into the hearts of
Penns Ivnnla men that there Is only
ono branch of work to which ho would
be permitted to go and leave his dtitles
At Franklin Field. And that work Is
helping to win the war.
Tho popular Quaker trainer lva hn
commissioned In the air service of the
army ns a first lieutenant. It will he
his duty lo see that the nvintors at
Mineola are In good nhvs'cal mnrfitlnn
and If his past records are? maintained
the men at the Florida training camp
will be in better shape than any In the
country.
Aa evidence of Robertson's ab'lltv
here aro a few statements by men con-
necieu wun mm at tne university:
Edward R. Bunhnell. s-raduntn man.
ager: "Lawson Robertson Is a man of
great value. He Is tho best all-around
man 1 know. As an athlete he has taken
part In' every branch of track nnd field
athletics and he has made a thorough
study of all of them. He has surpassed
the expectations of his most ardent ad
mirers. His loss Is a great blow to
Pennsylvania."
"W. H: Hollenback. football coach:
"Robertson Is a great trainer. I have
taken his advice In conditioning these
football men and 1 see where his meth
ods are the best."
Creed Hamond, track captain and In
tercollegiate 220-yard dash champion:
"Lawson Robertson Is the best coacn
In the world. 1 never would have won
any championships had it not been for
him."
Harvey Price, captain-elect of the
cross-country team: "No one can tell me
that a better coach than Lawson Rob
erts ever lived. We won tho cioss
country championship last year because
'Robby taught us how to run."
Billy Morris, ono of Robertson's as
s'stants: "I have been under many
coaches hero at Pennsylvania. Mike
Murphy, Doctor Shell nnd Doctor Orton
I have watched work, but Lawson Rob
ertson is better than any of them. Xo
dcTall Is too small. He overlooks noth
ing. Ho Is thorough, ellicient and a
gentleman."
Robertson came to Pennsylvania in
the spring of 1916, mainly through the
efforts of Tea Meredith, who received
valuable pointers fiom the .New Yorker
during his running career.. At that time
ho was assistant to Dr. George W.
Orton. The following fall he vv;as given
full charge.
A glance at the record of Penn teams
since Robertson has had charge proves
ills worth. The Quakers have been In
four championships, two cross-country,
one indcor and one outdoor. Two of the
four team titles have been won by the
Quakers. These were the cross-country
championship of 1917 and the A. A. U.
Indoor national championship.
Before coming to Pennsylvania Rob
ertson was coach of the Irish-American
Club of Xew York, and it was theie that
he established his reputation. He turned
