Football Two Weeks Off
Jt'ST as n gentle reminder, the football season will he
with us In n couple of weeks. Seems strange to men
tion the fact nt this time, but advance notice will soften
the shock.
Two weeks from Wednesdav, which is another way of
sHylng September 1, the gridiron candidates at State
College will hold their first practice with Hugo Rezdek iu
harge. On September II West Virginia will go to Moun
tain I.nke Park, Mil., for two weeks, and Center College
gets into nction on the 7th.
State has a big game with Dartmouth at State College
on October !. nnd Rer.dek Is anxious to win that game.
Therefore he Is starting early. Six of his varsity men
have departed Rob Higgins, Conover, Robb, Cubbnge
and Henry graduating and Osborne ipiitting college. These
places must be filled fiom last year's freshmen und the
scrubs. Hugo's line is nil shot, nnd he must find n center,
two guards nud n tuckle. Riown ond McCollum, ends,
are back, and so nre Reck, tackle, nnd Ranch, guard.
The Intter probably will be shifted to center.
Captain Harold Hess, fullback; Haines, Snell. Way
and Kinneger, halfbacks, and Williams, quarterback, are
available, and from the freshmen Redinger, Hess, HufTord,
backfleld men, nnd Schuster, Reilenk, Coffield and Ash
feltcr, line men. will be on the job.
At Center College, Chnrley Monin shjs he will have
a lovely season. Flfty-tlve candidates will report at Camp
Daniel Iloone. Ky . situated on the (Sreen river, which
means nothing these days. Only three of last j ear's team
are missing, and their places will be filled easily.
noOKHS tnVI he lost to Went 'inima. hut they

TWO PHILADELPHIA GOLFERS
IN P. G. A.'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Hoffner and Sayers Meet Tough Opposition in Chicago Match
Play They'd Only Let Dicgcl Alone in National
Ify SANDY McNIBLICK
rpHIRTY-TWO fortunate golf pro
fessionuls from nil sections of
America begin the competition this week
for their match play title.
This is the only championship they
have in this roam try which the pros
decide by hole and net stroke.
There nre two l'hitndelphinns in the
play. Chnrlle Hoffner, I'hilmont, nnd
(ieorge Sayres, Merion. Roth are ex
pected to give a good aceouut of them
selves. Hoffner meets Larry A.vton, the top
notcher from the other side who has
been in this country but a few months
and has demonstrated golf of 11 very
superior quality so far.
Hayres plays (ieorge McLean, fireut
Neck, a very difficult proposition in
match play.
Due to the seleit, almost hand
picked, class of the field which quali
fied, the play will be fast and furious
each day, and it will take the keenest
I kind of golf to win the match against a;
brother nro every day to the finnls.
Sayres antl Hoffner both left Toledo
after the national open, rather dis
couraged over their failure to qualify, 1
in thnt classic. Rut the following play, I
which both followed eagerly, 'was an'
inspiration to them, and it's n safe bet I
thnt both will play sound golf lu the
mntch pla.v this week at Chicago, for
getting the past.
There probably never was an open-
golf .'uimpionship of the 1'nited Stntcs
which America so much wanted n
nephew of jnnr I'ncle Sam to win or!
i rally thought Mich a one would win.
Tod Ray. one of Rriton's best, de- '
serves, theiefore, all the more credit1
, that he was able to win the title from
the eager pack That it was won only ,
I by the margin of a sttoke makes nn I
difference Two had nlreudy finished
with lifld. Hairy Vnrdon ami Jack i
i Rurke. the stocky little Philadelphia
product. Ray. knowing this, hnd the
golf to finish in -O.'i
It was enough.
Winning Shot
The winning shot in golf, as in every
thing else, will ever bo the right shot
nt the right time. What a golfer can
do nnd has dmie rounts for little if not
produced at the right time. I
Rny .produced, and American loveis'
of the game. In the physical form of '
U. S. (;, A tilhcials. were the first i
to extend the congratulatory hand.
The only possible regret to be gotten
out of the tournament from America's
standpoint was that Leo Diegel, the I
home-bred, game to the core, but high
strung, battling his way In two pnirs
behind Itav. with n real chance, was
not let ii'oih to play Ills own v' ''.
given t h-i i "
He hntl plnu'd rn game to inier I
mittent galleries Td y hau etltdi'd his1
game from the .ititrt and t mini in him
n hope should Hagen and the others fall
by the wayside
Tho day l.efoie the iiuilu'v ivi r,i"inl
Diegel had gone nut with ISobbv Jones
'and others iu a four-bull round ami '
had given a brilliant exhibition of shots. .
He led the. first din's uualifyiug round
anil came in with a huge following. His
was u showing that took out possihlv a
hundred fans from the firs- l.iv . hr
brought them In b.v the thousand.
Antl when In- caught Ka.v ut the
sixty-fifth Hag not n man. woman or I
child nble to toddle out there was not,
present to see him win the (hampinn
shlp. Vod could sense in the nir what
they expected of li'tn as they nickel
fifteen deep in stent aisles along his1
triumphant iciu'i,
Tho Volunteers
'hick Hvniis hid nniliei his wmnd
nnd probably thought to steady Diegtl
over the few remaining holes by canv
ing the keen young home-bred's bag
Diegel couldn't refuse. Hy that time lie
vvus probably tun much keyed up to
think anything nf it.
Hut Kvnns.in the opinion nf everv nne
who saw it. overtlid the ,iob. Meant
In all kindness, hopefulness and the
sincere desire to see Dieger win. Kvnns
brought down tlie Ire of the pros ami I
veterans at the game, scattered profuse
ly in that gallery, by the manner in '
which lie hung over Diesel's every
move, lined up his putts for him and
counseled him continuously.
Others patted Diegel on the back as
he went to the tees, told him he "had
it cinched " what they'd give him to
win nntl eo forth All very sympa
thetic all very loyal, and all very fine -at
a football gume, or a light or some
Rut how about the last few holes of
an international medal open golf chum
nlonsbip, for n mere youngster, mind
and muscle nt the straining point after
all that nerve-racking tussle he'd had (
to get where he was?

I.v that Ray had just taken a 1" at
seventeen, thnt was well-nigh the finish
of Diegel. His overwrought nerves
gave way. his temper crashed.
It was then that he hurled his brassie
to the ground und demanded of them
all to leave him alone, let him play
his own game. It was then thnt he got
his six which put him in the rear, never
to catch up again. Ills nerves were
gone, but IiIr stout heart was not. Try
though he did, they would not drop for
him after that.
With n bird on either the seventeenth
or eighteenth to win, when lie dropped
one eight feet from seventeen pin, to
putt for a bird, the great inob packed
on the high banlis descending to the
green roared with joy as only Yankee
lovers of n game man can.
Rut the Diegel who came to make the
putt wns only the shell of the Diegel
who hnd made the fight. He threw him
self face down on the green and burled
liis face in his arms, while his partner
putted.
Again lie seemed ti slump at the
eighteenth, nnd shook hia heud ns he
turned from u longer putt with the
same ehnnee. Hut the courage in his
soul made him tight it out, and he only
missed that last chance by a fraction.
There wns n ghastly silence as the putt
stayed out. but ns they thought of his
game tight all the way. they clapped
i gee how they clapped, for minutes, so
long that Diegel had to lift his cap nntl
bow, the first time most hnd ever seeu
that on a golf course,

Making Bid for First Place
By GKANTLAND RICK
One of (he World's Greatest Sports
I refer lo solitude,
A day off every now and then
Apart from all the human brood,
In the heart of some deep glen
llVicre only grinds and shades intrude,
Itcyond the thought of worldly gain
Or streets where pallid faces haunt,
lieyond Ihc reach of greed and pain,
Of trickery and fear and want
Where one can sit and dream a bit
I'nravcling some mental twist,
Where no white flame of fame is lit
That lurcs'ta disappointment's tryst,
Close to the Mother of Ihc Clan,
The earth, that madmen still defile
With blood and tears through life's
brief span,
Where each one has so short a while
To dream of something better lhan
The endless strife of man and man.
TIIR smnller man is supposed to
have ns much chance in, many
branches of sport as the larger entry,

The Jazz Finish
TUB red-eyed scrap in the two major
leagues for a shot nt the world
series knlc thnt nwnits the winning
teams may be almost as dizzy ns' the
jnzz finish in 1008.
That year still holds the record for
all such performances with no rival in
sight. In the National League the
Oiants nnd Cubs hnd to take over nn
extra day beyond the schedule to settle
their nrgument, which Tinker's triple
won. And Pittsburgh was only a game
behind,
. In the American League Detroit,
Chicago, Cleveland and St. Louis nil
hnd a chance with ten days to go.
Cleveland was still in tho running with
four games to play and the issue finnlly
went to n decisive conflict between De
troit nnd Chicago.
