THE VARDON-BRAID-TAYLOR TRIO
GETTING NERVOUS ON EVE OF PL A Y
FOR THE BRITISH OPEN GOLF TITLE
WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND
rhflE sands of time are slipping rapidly for the three
1 most famous, probably, golfers In the world. It seems
like a hysterical flight of the Imagination to figure for a
mliiuto that the three Urltish winners of sixteen open
championships nud a score or more of minor titles should
be 'ntf nil nervous about qualifying for the coming open
championship of (Jrcat Britain.,
Jt'does not seem possible that such an Idolized King of
the links as Harry Vnrdon, present Urltish open cham
pion and six times holder of the honor, or James Braid,
first to wiu tho great tlttc five times, or John Henry
ayfor, five times winner and twice tied for the honor,
will be affected by "nerves" when the pros of every great
soiling clime tec off next week. But on the eve of the
struggle for places such h actually the cae.
The press abroad N becoming bolder and bolder, where
a few years ago it would have been nothing hort of heresy
to breathe that the almost deified "triumvirate" would
fall to place.
Confidence plays an Important part in the game.
Vlthout It come the few slips, just enough to keep them
at of the going. Then there Is the reflection of the con
fidence of the gallery. Kven a star used to success par
ticularly senses in his Inmost mind while he I making
the phots the fact of a gallery doubting his ability to come
through. lie becomes Imbued with that desire to "show
them."
Comes a slip, nnd the star wonders whether the gal
lery is right. You can't play the gallery and your own
Ijame. , . ,
Then there's the attitude of the press and the critics
and the respect shown to one's game by the other pros.
AVIth all thee factors adverse, the play of the game be
comes a little less interesting, n little more bothersome,
n little more conducive to failure, than success.
TI7.17' effect m all this going to have on the play
fr of 1 ardun, Itrnitl and Taylor next treek,' They
Jtave failed nnre to 'tunlify in n big open thin year.
'-Thcy know tlm newcomers, Abe Mitchell, George
A Duncan nnd others, arc not only pushing them hard
in popular favor, hut actually outstripping them,
Vanlon, Itraiil and Taylor have already been laid
tenderly on the shelf in the minds of many of those
who used to worship so fervidly at their shrine.
Their Golf and Years Are, Reasons
THEUB aro two main reasons, physical reasons, why
the "triumvirate" has slipped in public favor. It is
true, that Vardon averuged just over 77 for the last jear
and that Braid and Taylor were just a fraction more per
But it 1 alo true that In the News of the 'World
tourney qualifying round this season, the biggest open
next to the championship, all three of these honor-laden
golfers failed to quallf . It was u failure that worked
both ways.
It lessened the confidence of the three in themselves.
U lessened the confidence of their followers. The "tri
umvirate" now stands with its back to the wall. They
Unpw their wartime lay-off from thrilling contests of the
links, as of old. has subtracted from their playing powers.
Can it be that the heavy hand of Time has been laid
upon them? Vardon, they nay. is "stabbing" his putts
in the throes of another "greens malady." The eyes of
Ilrald are becoming less strong aud more worrisome.
Taylor, the spokesman for the trio, who proclaims with
vigor that although they are oer the half -century murk
In years they all still possess the golfing power as of yore,
finds that he is a bit more self-conscious, that he is for
ever trying too hard, that it is as easy for the best of
them when a bit nervous to miss with frequency as for
those reckoned troke wnre, and that his game is under
the constant scrutiny of critics who, while sympathetic,
at the same time profess to see signs of weaknesses fun
damental. rllfnrOI! the length and breadth of Great Brit
ain tin a arc innig the piaise of Abe Mitchell,
the "tonaeit di r.t i in the world," he of the "per-
B1
jeet irons and putts." Harry Vardon, the king, ts
dead. Long live the king, Abe Mitchell! This is
the popular trend.
Is There a iciv "Triumvirate"?
SO, TOO, has the awakening of Oeorge Duncan swept
the links. No longer, we are told, Is there a dlutlnct
cleavage between the "triumvirate" and the next In order,
Hay, Duncan and Mitchell.
For Indeed i seems the "triumvirate" is no more.
Now we find these three fighting back like lions at bay,
wounded and surrounded, ou might say, by the pack
that would take their lives, It matters little to the
veteran "triumvirate" which otic of Its member wins.
But win one of them must.
Says the mighty Taylor : ,
"We have three chance- to the one of an aspirant to
the title. Never have we been pushed as appears likely
this coming championship by outsiders, and wo will glvo
an exhibition of battling against the oplulons of the press,
the beliefs of the pros and the sympathy which we do riot
need or crave. Hold back auy condolences until tho
seventy-two holes arc over. Many the time the young
players have shone lu preliminaries and lost Avhen it came
to the real rub, the nerve -racking putt, the tricky mashlc
pitch, the placing of the drive against a hard-blowing
wind, an iron shot with the needed fadeaway, n Braid
cleek shot from a cuppy He making the earth tremble."
This is brave talk and it's good to hear. Such as these
three do not boast. It Is heartening to their thousands
of followers. The solid throngs will go out again behind
"our Harry" to marvel at his inimitable style. They
will pack behind the deadly mashle work of Taylor as of
yore. Every Scot in fifty miles will be out there bolilnd
Jamie Braid; "aye, mou, lie hits them bonnle long V
sweet."
tT'T one fact persists. It it the stand of the
'triumvirate," the glory roup of yore. And
a fickle world of golf fans is dubious.
Eddie McNichol Valuable Coach
LON JOURDET has stepped down as coach of the
championship Penn basketball the, nnd thereby the
I'uiversity lost one of the most successful tutors in the
history of sports nt the institution. In the sh'brt time
he has been cqach, Jourdet brought more championships
to the Bed and Blue than any other instructor with the
possible exception of Douglas Stewart, the soccer mentor.
The University Athletic Council named Edward J.
McNichol as Jourdet's successor, and no better man could
be secured. The son of the late senator has been raised
with a basketball in his bands, aud what he doesn't know
about the game could be written on the point of a pin
or something like that. For three years he was selected
for the all-collegiate basketball team, and during two
seasons, l!U."i-lt( and 1010-17. he captained the Penn
live. It was in 101(1 that 'the Quakers landed the inter
collegiate title by defeating the Tigers in the pot-scason
play-off.
Eddie is a keen student of the game and. like Jourdet,
possessor one of those rare personalities that inspires
others to give their nil. , Last season he coached the fresh
man five, which lot only one game during the entire
season, and assisted Jourdet in the coaching of tho
varsity.
Jourdet suggested McNichol when he tendered his
resignation. At that time he stated that Eddie was one
of the most capable coaches in the country and that the
winning of the American collegiate title by Penn was due
in a large measure 'to the tutoring of the 1021 coach.
Eddie is a brother of Danny McNichol, the 1021 captain.
Between the two of them the McNichols should carry
IVnn to another basketball crown.
JOVRDF.T left hii coaching post to that he could
gi'-c more time to hii business. He hai held
the tutoring job since 7.1., mid during his reign
Van iron three intercollegiate titles, one American
championship and finished first in the league ichen
the crown was not at stake on account of the war.

Tl'Nn 4. 1010, fistic dope wob
en n knockout blow when Lew
Tendler surprised a big crowd at Shlbe
Park by stowing away Oeorge Chancy,
the Haltlmore southpaw and knocker
out. While Tendler'a hitting powers
had been a well known fact nt that
time, there were few fans who be
lieved Lew could sock Chancy Into un
consciousness for the necessary ten sec
onds for a k. o.
Ten days later Chancy again was
locked in the arms of Morpheus, or
somebody like thnt. and this time the
dope was knocked higher than ever in
Philadelphia's fistic history, because
.Toe Tiplitr. was the young gent who
administered the haymaker. Tendler
scored his kayo in the first round, while
"Tip" uncorked his knockout wallop
in the third.
That even the "know-boys" were
knocked dizzier than Chancy when
Tiplitr. ooniteo'teil with his crusher was
proved by the fact that a lot of bets
had been placed before the bout even
bv a number of sportsmeu who were
ciose friends of Joe's that the Balti
more battler would do the knocking
out, if the contest was to finish that
way. The big feature of dinner's two
knockouts within ten davs was that his
oonquorers were and, for that matter,
still aro stable mates.
Now. Tiplitz is to get another op
portunity to follow in the footsteps of
the more illustrious Tendler. Several
weeks ago. about a week after (ieorges
Papin. lightweight champion of Frnnec.
arrived in America. Tendler was selected
for the foreigner's first opponent in
tliis country. Tendler knocked down
Papin five times and finally (icorges
was counted out in the sixth round.

Lyon won eight of his nine matches
and is virtually sure of making the
I nlted States team which will couimte

at Travers Island later this month.

the front rank of American fencers nt
a rapid clip, carried off second honors,

badly, being defeated a number of
times. Another former champion who

Breed, who was n member of the Ameri
can team which went to Stockholm in
1012. II, M. Itaynor, another former
champion, was also defeated several
times during the afternoon matches.
B. II. Breed, however, redeemed him
self by his brilliant foils work when he
tied for first honors, having four vic
tories and only one defeat. II. M. Ray
nor nlso found himself in thh event,
hnving the snmf score thnt Breed

with three victories nnd two defeats.

der that the matches would not tuke

decision to the mnn gaining three
touches Instead of five, .which is usuallv
the custom. Kach man had nine foil
