Bit Crond Present
Btfore telling what happened in the
trot doubles match It Is wol to re
mark parenthetically that never before
in the history of Philadelphia has n
tournament been run with the smooth
ness as thnt at Manheim yestcrdnyv
In the first place there were plenty of
Kits. Everybody who wonted to see
the match, ond there were about 4000

the umpiring. The gallery doesn't, care
who officiates at a mntch. They are

want to know thc score and they want

something about the tennis. Naturally

Neither played the twelfth or thir
teenth well, Evans being down the bank
at the twelfth whilo Allls was in the
rough, neither was able to get the
thirteenth with an iron. Allls was
hopelessly out of the fourteenth when
he pitched over the short green nnd
was back over the trap on the opposite
side with his out. But he sank another
forty-foot putt on the fifteenth which
Bquarcd the match once more.
Allls wiir too strong at the sixteenth,
losing that and was off the eighteenth

Ouimet curved round through the grassy

to the lost two holes. In so doing he
had two birdie threes, one ot which was
due to a sensational fifty-yard putt on
thc fifteenth green. He failed, however,
to halve the seventeenth hole by missing
a three-foot putt, and at the home
green, an ovcrapproach Into a trap
helped give "Chick" the hole.
There has never been a tournament
like this and tho winner can claim tho
world's championship thouch there is
no tournament for such a title. The
British champion did not qualify. The
Canadian champion was eliminated as
was tho champion of Scotland and
France.
And It remained for J. W, Piatt.
champion, of Philadelphia, to have the
way for the rest by battling 8. D. Her
ron, champion of America, to n farelheo
well. Piatt lndeec furnished more uian
bis share of the thrills In this tourna
ment, and will have to be ranked in
the first ten golferB ot tho year after
his season's showing. The first duy be
led thc field, who played North Shore
with his 77 to qualify there till almost
the last when Chick Evans succeeded In
equalling that mark.
The first day of match ploy Tlott
was three down in the morning and,
not only squnrcd tho match on the
afternoon, but won on the last green,
though he had a medal for the day of
153 strokes. The next day he faced
Herron who had UBed him for a stepping
stone in the national last year In tho
semifinals. He was three down at the
ninth In the morning, but held on with
bulldog tenacity which has made him
famous hero and storteo mo niieruoon

Yesterday, Piatt suffered from the in-
evItAble reaction of a match like that
and in the morning plnycd the worst
golf of his play In the tournnment. He
tofik Blxtecn strokes on the three short
boles. He had none ot that uncanny
control of his putter which had ousti-d
Herron, nor was ho able to recover from
traps an he had done the day before.
But In the afternoon he gave them a
treat.

English Cricketers Face Best
Bowling of Series Hero
Against All-Philadelphia
The Incognlti cricket team, of Eng
land, faced thc best bowling of their
visit hero today when they met thc all
Philadelphia eleven on tho Merlon
Cricket Club crease at Hnvcrford.
With five wickets down thc tourists
bad scored only 54 runs In their first
Innings. Incidentally they were up
ugalnst n wet, sticky wicket which
fayorcd the local bowlers.
K, M. Mann's bowling was a fea
ture of thc early play. Ho bowled
seven maidens In twelve overs nnd al
iowctl but ten runs for tho twelve overs.
O'Neill nnd Keltows also succeeded In
foiling thc attack of the Invaders.
Morrison scored eleven runs before
he was caught by Ncwbold on one of
Mann's fast ones that sure had a hop
to it. Burrowcs also tallied eleven runs.
He wos cnught by Crosman and bowled
by Fellows.
D. 11. .mrdlne couldn't do nnythlng
with Mann's twlrstcrs. Ho hit n hard
nno tn forward fthnrt leer, of which E.
Evans made a sensatlonnl ono-bnnd
citWi. which drew rounds of well-merited
applause.
Captain J. h. Evans, of the Merlon
Club, led out onto the green grass n
side that was hopeful and fairly confi
dent of spoiling thc Incognttl'A cricket
ttmr of this part of thc U. S. A. Thc
All-Phllodelphlnns think they will halt
thc Invasion. They fed that they will
win. Tho flnnl score will bo announced
later.
One of the reasons for thc confi
dence of Captain Evnns Is that he has
behind him thc best nssortment of bats
and bowlers In thc homo of Amcricnn
cricket. The best men from the line
ups of tho two Philadelphia teams,
which the Incogultl already have faced,
will be on the field working with five
stars from the Ocrmantown Cricket
Club, winner of this year's Halifax cup
championship.
. .C. M. Graham heads the Monhclm
contribution to the cnusc. He brings as
his cricket licence and further creden

E. M. Mann and W. P. O'Nell, come
from the same club. Mann Is a lost
right-hand bowler, while O'Nell uses o
aliiw left- thnt la most annoying. These
two had tho best bowling averages of
the city for thc year. Anotner uer
mantown member of the contingent Is
W. P. Newhall, a good batter, bowler
nnd fielder, who comes from a iaous
family of cricketers. . a. xiurncu wm

the autl-Brltlsh compaign.
In additldn to Captain J. L. Lvans,
Merlon sends C. C. Morris, the most
experienced and versatile batter in the
city, and E. N. Crosmon, a wicket
keeper ond good batter.
The Philadelphia Cricket Club lends
for the occasion Ed Hopklnson,
Jr., nnd Bill Fellows, Its best beta In
thc bowling line. W. S. Evnns, Frank -ford's
star bat, will round out the line

Captain Evans, "though not quite. so
strong at the bat. We field about alike
Taking everything into the argument, I
feci confident that we will give tne
visitors their first trimming of their
trip."
Only one- thing need bo snld for thc
Incognlti. If the All-Phtladelphla side
wins the first of the two three-day
matches, lt must play brilliant cricket
the best cricket that has been Splayed
over hero for years.
In the opinion of English nnd Ameri
can experts who have followed the
matches of this month, the Incognlti at
bat arc representative of the best
British amateur cricket. Several of
their bowlers, mostly noticeably It. St.
L. Fowler, are of crack caliber, while
the rest of them aro exceedingly go6d.
The Incognlti aro vicious ond don
slstant' bats, straight (Kiwil and up thc

or any way you look at them. Each one
of them is liable to break out In n
bitting spree that will not stop shdrt of
