'A NATIONAL open golf championship 1 an outdoor event held once every

Jnly good break the spectators set N tliat the open championships arc ludd

And they need It.
Out We. where the pick of the best colferx In this and othr countries
Are on exhibition, there is nothing private about the name. Thej 4nn't pull
anything not even their allot without ever body gettlii); lifp. From the
first tee to the eighteenth green the nob'.e athletes are provided with n volun
teer iscort, said escort mounting occasionally Into four riguies. Hrond and
Chestnut streets at hlch noon Is a (pilet spot compared to the links.
Spectators arc lined up on each side of the fairway, and all the golfer
. bas to do is shoot between the lines. If he doesn't, at lent one onlooker will
' lore Interest in the proceedings.
yESTERU.iY the final qualifying rounu irai put on. All thosn
,. ihooting 7S or under pot into the finals. The others got tired and
i turned in their badges. Many of the good players icere not so good
when ,'Ae real test came and had nothing to shoic for their tabors
except an explanation as to why Ihry flopped,
A Good Taxi Drive From Harding's House
THE tournament is being held out in the country, which is n good drive
from Mr. Hardlnu's residence. Not a driver or a brassle, but a taxi drive.
Mr. Hnrdlng was not present, but nobody mlcd him. He can't play as well
as Monies, O'Hara, 1'iinran or Mitchell.
Most of the uon-woiking population of Washington was, present when
the stars stepped out and crowd' followed the athletes over the course. We
saw a mob early In the morning and trailed along. It happened to be a good
guess, for dim Barnes and (leorge Duncan were paired. ah,! those guys played
tome real and regular golf. Barnes was in exceptionally good form, and after
he turned In a 00 there were many in Jhe crowd who boldly predicted he
would qualify.
Jim socked a beauty ofT the HrM tee and grabbed a four on the first hole.
Duncan was one more than that. They halved the second with three each,
and en the third th Englishman squared the match with a four, while
Barnes turned in a five.
Barnes had a narrow escape on the fourth. His second shot, a brassie,
wan just a couple of inches In bounds and In the rough. He had n diflieu't
lie, but caini- through with a perfect mahhie and laid the ball dead on the
pin. He sank his putt for a four. In the meantime, Duncan got on In two,
bnt foozled on his putts. He took three slaps before the pill dropped into
the cup.
Duncan made a great shot on the sixth, which Is 472 yards long. His
'aeeond shot landed to the right of the green and nestled on the wrong side of
a three-foot bank. Taking his niblick, (ieorgo lifted the ball over the barrier
and it rolled toward the cup. About five feet from the hole it swerved to the
left and rolled Into the opening for a three.
Barnes made up for this on the short hole which Is known as No. 8
Both pitched into the sand trap, with Duncan away. (Jeorge is considered
ne of the best in the business .u getting away with this shot, but he flivved
and had to shoot again. H- reached the green In three.
Barnes took a mighty swipe and the ball sailed on the green and stopped
about ten feet from the cup. He sank his putt for a three, while Duncan
took a four.
AT TUE turn Duncan icas the proud and happy possessor of a per-
feet 38, while Karnes kicked in trifi a snappy 38. Roth icert
fresh and apparently irere enjoying themselves.
-v. ' Duncan IF as Weak on the Greens
'AFTER tis Duncan played marvelous golf and In five of the last nine
A holes had a chance to putt out for threes. He was hitting them a mile
and his accuracy was uncanny. When on the greens he seemed to play too
fast and three of his putts rimmed the cup and jumped out. Barnes was the
steadier of the two and played par golf.
His best shot was on the sixteenth, a short hole of 13S yards In length.
He pitched his ball twelve feet from the cup and holed out in two. Duncan
got a three.
When they teed off for the last hole the gallery numbered more than
a thousand and there was mtn-h excitement. Barnes needed a four for n 70
and Duncnn could get 71 with the same number of strokes, dim's second
shot stopped about, six feet fiom the hole, but Duncan got into trouble. He
was short and reached the edge of the green In three. It took two putts to
ink the ball and he finished with a 72, which allowed him to play today.
The crowd was distributed all over the place when Barnes stooped and
measured the distance between his ball and the cup. There wns a fnlnt
murmur of conversation a sort of buzzing sound and then absolute silence.
Golf crowds are funny that way. Thejt refuse to talk even in a whisper.
This is a good Hunt, for the orators usunll. are spoken to harshly.
TflE silence teas thick as Homes prepared to putt, and when As
rolled the ball into the hole trild and irooty cheering broka out.
This teas because Jim kicked in icith a 69 and also because the match
teas over and there teas no further need of iralking.
" Bobby Jones Is Real Nice and Gende
BOBBT JONES had some hard luck at the start of his match, but pulled
himself together and finished with a 77. Bobby played with an lnde.
atrncto golf card, and that helped a lot. Not once did he try to bean any of
the spectators and he did not lose control of his clubs.
His first shot landed In the rough and his second bounced against a
tree, going further Into the wilderness. He was able to get out on his next
try and finished with a six. Bobby placed fairly consistent golf, having fifteen
fours on his card. Both be and Lou Diogle finished with 77.
One of the best-looking young golfer from a competitive standpoint
was A. F. Nntalc, the kid pro from Lansdowne. This youngster qualified
when he sank a fifteen-foot putt on tbo last green. He acted like a real
veteran, never became nerrous and was cool and steady throughout. He Is
likely to pull a surprise before the tournament Is over.
Chick Evans, the amateur champion and volunteer prohibition agent,
palled one of his usual stunts when he arrived just In time to tee off In tbo
qualifying round in the afternoon. Chick did not wear a badge, but had a
great alibi. He Insisted he never had played the course hefore and was all
set to explain why he didn't qualify, np arrived Tuesdnv night, but couldn't
possibly reach the golf course before 1 :30 1 M. yesterday.
Chick got off to a bad start and had a 40 at the turn anil It looked as If
the alibi would come In liHndy. However, he recovered, came hack with 34 and
lid under the wire by several lengths. The feature of Evans' play was his
putting. Usually weak In this department, Chick showed wonderful form arfd
got away with several long ones.
JfVAXR teas the eighth amateur to qualify, and judging from yes
terday's performance, he will play some interesting gnlf. He
fits in teell trith the crack field.
Everybody Is a Favorite to Win Tourney
''"ITIOnTT-FIVE athletes qualified yesterday, making a total of eighty-eight
J- to compete for the prizes. Several were lucky in the second day's play, ns
It was announced early that It would take a 77 to qualify. When It came lime
to figure up. the seventy -eight men just slid In. An CTen dozen were tied nt
that figure and they will stick around for two more days.
Ticking a winner In this open event is not n cinch. Tou can't come out
boldly and pick one man or six men to cop the first prize. It Is all a matter of
luek. The more one sees of golf the more one Is convinced that under certain
conditions any expert will turn in extremely low scores. Of the eighty -eight
qualifiers there are at least forty who have a chance to cop. Barnes with his
CO Is the favorite, but you never can tell. It' n safe bet that Jim wishes he
could have saved that good round for today or tomorrow, when it will count
niore.
Duncan. Barnes. Mitchell, Mike Brady. Walter Hngen. I'eter O'Hara,
Clarence Hackney, Wallie Nelson, A. F. Natale, of Lansdowne, and ninny
others hnve a chance.
T'R the guy trith the iron nerve who hot tht belt chance.. That
and the hrtaki of the game. From now on every stroke counts,
iferlal play is harder man match play because thrra it no chance to
make up or a bad hole. Thi tournament is getting quite exciting,

PIRATES GAIN ON GIANTS
Yankees Repeat in
Climbing to the Top
. 4
This Is not the first time this year
the Yankees have been in first place
in the American League. They -were
there in May, but stayed only three
days.
But curiously enough, they mnde
their way to the tnpnotrh then by
beating Cleveland, just as they illd
yesterday.
On May IS they toppled the In
dians' and repeated on May 10. In
creasing the lend. They lost the last
game of the series, then went to
Chicago and lost ngnln. nnd they
hnve been trailing Cleveland over
since.
The Indlnns nnd Yanks have met
nine time this year. The Yankees
have won six nnd the Indians
ihree.
Two former Athletic players, Bob
Shnwkey nud Frnnk Baker, nlded nnd
alvetted by seven other members of the
New York Yankees, turned the tide that
sent thc Cloveland Indlnns out of tbo
highest perch In the league to second
place for the first time since Inst Mny.
A four-point ndvantnge accrues to the
Yanks this morning.
Shnwkey twirling n brllllnnt game,
held the slugging Spokemen to six him
and had It not been for Earl Smith V
home run in the slUh Inning would hnve
scored a shutout. Baker playing thc
kind of a game that gains him fame on
thc famous Athletic $100,000 infield
was one of Hob's best assets In the vic
tory. Baker personally doubled on one
occnslon. scored Ruth and worked the
squeeze play successfully on another thnt
alno( scored the Hustln Bambino.
While the Yankees were moving into
the lend the (Jlants were moving further'
away from it by losing to the Beds.
Eppa .Tepthn Rixey. who hurled n bril
liant game here on Saturday, wns thc
victor. The tall Virginian had much
the better of a hurling duel with Toney.
Thc defeat of the Beds was nil the
more costly to the (Jlants, for tho
Pirates, with Wilbur Cooper twirling
a mnsterful game, shut out the bnttling
Braves. 2 to 0, up In Benntown, In the
first game of the National League's
second crucial series of the week.
.oe Oeschger, "the former Phil who
has been one of the mainstays of
.Mitchell s stall all senson, twirled good
ball, but not good enough. lie was
touched up for nine snfetic. while onlv
eight were made by the Braves. As the
stnndings rend this morning the Pirates
have a three and n half game lend over
the Giants nnd a six and a half mnrglu
over the Bcanenters.
Phils Win One
While there are doings In other parts
of the country that merit consideration
It must not be lost sight of thnt the
Phillies won a game yesterday, thoir
first since the second game Saturday
when Peters drove n home run Into the
bleachers in the ninth inning. Wilbur
Ililbbel . the uinllitiir hi? Imr nt tli
Phils' staff, wns the victor then, but he
mil not twirl anything like the game he
did yesterday.
After Alexander the great had swung
the whitewash brush in the first fracas
In which the Cubs hung up a near Na
tional League record by making twentv
three hits off Ocorge Smith and Dela
ware Betts, Ilubbell was sent out to
try his luck in the second.
How well he succeeded can be ascer
tained from the box score. He yielded
but seven hits, scattered in all but two
Innings when the Cubs hunched two.
Outside of that Wilbur twirled in better
fashion than at any other time this
year.
A's Iwe Sixth Straight
The Athletics lost another tough oua
yesterday. After tlelng the score at
two all In the eighth and surviving the
ninth after the first White Sox hitter
doubled, thoy crumbled in the tenth and
lost, 3 to 2. Keefe started on the hill
for the Mackmon, but was withdrawn in
the ninth, with one on and none out,
nnd Eddie Romraell was sent to the
hill.
He stopped the rally, but went under
in the tenth when Johuston doubled,
went to third on Rommell's fall fieldlntr
Mulligan's attempted sacrifice, and
scored when Amos Strttnk dropped a
single into the field. It was the sixth
straight reverse for the Mackmen.
Walter Johnson lost n tight pitcher's
battle to Leonard, of the Tigers, out
In Detroit yesterday, thc final figures
reading 2 to 3.
Jeff Pfefler Mnrted the Cards on the
winning side of the ledger over In

SEVEN PHIL A. GOLFERS
QUALIFY FOR THE OPEN
Hackney, Leach and Natale Added to Quaker City District of
Medal-Round Players for Championship
By SANDY
-oitimbl Country Ohib, Cliovy Chaso,
Md., .Inly 21.
fpHE trial heats avo over, and the
puckered brow ruplnceH the face
wreathed in smiles, nstmore than four
score fortunate llnksmcmteed off on the
niednr rounds proper for1 the onen golf
chumpionship of thc UnAtpu States on
the verdant links here tnitiv.
Seven golfers from they Philadelphia
district qualified where hot one suc
''ecded Inst year. Kour outlof eight got
In .Tuesday and three out of) ten yester
day. They follow: Clareneu Hnckney,
Atlantic City; William Ltttch. Mer
chnntville. 70; Toney Natale, Lans
downo, 77; John Howe, 8titon. 78;
Ocnrge Sajers, Merlon. 7n; Robert
Bnrnett. Trcdvffrin. 77. utw! Frank
Coltart. Country Club, 78.
Of the eighty -eight players to qualify,
eight were amateurs and six wero for
eigners. It Is difficult to polnf, to nny i
great nnd notable upsets as tbo nisult or
this year's experiment of an ehihteen
hole qualifying round. Therv were
sevoral who would doubtless have KOltcn
in hnd there been another round, nnd
some who would have been ottstVl, so
that's that. Pine golf wns plnysvl by
many of those who failed to get in. One
or two holes ruined these,. But tass
will tell, and It's n fact that nearly nil
of the tohnotch favorites went out baVlly
and had to show renl caliber and their
best eolf to come home nnd L'ct in. TlVy
did It bo everything worked out pretty
well. There wns liltle enninlnlnlni? in
! those who fulled blamed it mostly on
themselves.
Hard Lliei' ,
As for the Philndelphlnns who Quali
fied more will be said about them ns the
four rough rounds for the tltlo pro
grebes. On behalf of thc visiting links
men from the Quaker City who wore
present but not voting, it can be said
that most of them had mote than a share
of hard luck.
Thcro was Charlie JJoffner. If ever
nny one made a game try it was the
young Phllmont pro, who got on the
rocks going out and all but sank his
ship right there with a 44. Then began
as game a battle agalust the odds as
you will sco, and Hoffner ascended the
slopcA to the seventeenth green with
two fours for a S4 back and a 78. But
at this pplnt n "kind friend" stepped
into the picture with the Information
that a 77 wna qoeded to qualify. That
was a blow out of a blue sky for
Hoffner, who rcalUcd ho had to get a
bird right there to get in. He faced
a long putt and stabbed at it for the
threo he needed. Ue mlssod and figured
it was all over. If he'd played safe
he'd have been In, but what was the
use, ho thought.
Jack Hawyer s four putts on a short
hole nnd a six on the eighteenth when,
even then, ho had a four for a 77, cost
1.1m blu chance.
Morrle Talman, 'Whttemarsh, had
the worst luck of all. lie started just
In front of Chlok Evans in the aftor
noon, a match that drew thousands to
Itt wake, and Talman suffered accord
ingly. On one hole a fair fan suddenly ex
claimed, "Oh, see the nice, new coif
ball." and packed it up. It was Till
man's drive. When she found it out
she dropped it carefully in a wagon rut
where no one else would find It or
disturb it. Even 'Talman couldn't. He
had to play it backwards to get it out
finally.
Another time some one itenned on his
ball und almost buried It. To cup the
climax, tho Evans match drove right
into Talman and partner and walked
right over them ns though thoy were
not on tho course. Thev just had to
nt there nud wait for a couple of thou
sand people, straggling along, to get
out of shot distance and I lion played
into them the rest of the way. Tal
man finlhbed with nn 80 at that, not
good, but not bad.

holes that he lost count he began taking
It out on the ball, so that by the time
he came to the eighteenth he was almost
driving tho greens at nny old distance.
His drive there was one of the longest
of thc day. After that Bill modestly
blended with the landscape. He'd had
cnougti.
When Jack Campbell. Old York Itoad.
came In with SO he had no comment to
make for publication. For what ho said
in an undertone you can't blame him.
As for John Edtnundson, LJanerch, it
alieady has been explained how he had
par for a 70 and took 0-5-5 just plain
couldn't get the putts.
That's the way the game of golf goes.
It's why thev follow each shot breath
lessly over hill and dale, for you never
can tell whore the blrdlos and f)s break
in.
There's Willie Ogg, for instance.
Here's the boy who played them all
dizxy nt Shawnee Mitchell, Duncan,
Klrkwood, llagen and the rest, led thera
by several healthy strokes. You'd
think he'd have been right up there in
this tourney and some figured he'd more
than finish in the money.
But Willie is now among tho late de
puted. He stole away from there in
thc creeping dusk, a bag of clubs ovor
his shouuder, hli belongings in his
satchel. He'd shot his bolt at Shaw
nee and picked up here, as predicted by
the author, a 78 qualified. A lot of
other numbers were also picked, but
thoy don't matter now. It was a 78.
Dopeaters Guessing
Now they lire guessing on what will
win the tournament. After looking
over the works nnd thc form displayed
In the qualifying rounds, it in pretty
jnfe to figure that each of the playcra
is going to have n round somewhere
iin
wear 77 with his good ones.
It is, therefore, difficult to figure how
aajy one will better 200 unlos? some
stArling rounds arc injected llko tha 69
byi Jim Barnes yesterday, which led the
Head then to qualify and which is said
to .be the competitive course record
here.
'IViere were many low scoron yester
day, dmt the day before oniy two play
ers were able to dip as low us 73, so
therolyou are.
Crowds are expected to break all
records! as the rounds move toward the
finish. Several thousand already have
viewed tthe elimination test. With tbo
fair sexMn their brightest aummer rai
ment, dqttln and cluttering up tha
wooded hillsides everywhere, the great
white, raftibling clubhouse plumped in
the park ilike lawns all around, tho
committee,! starter, scoring and re
freshment Uonta hither and yon, flags
waving., uniformed Scouta, thc mili
tary and all sorts of oillclals weaving
in and out, tho country club arena
presents an animated and fitting set
ting for what is expected to be tha
greatest national golf championship
ever played.
Now and then comes the roar of a
hundred tbroatfc, us when Barnes sank
his b rdlo 3 on eighteen, or Evans did
likewise. You can't blnme even the
peaceful native of Chevy Chase for
wondering what (it's all about.

Local Hurlina Sensation
ftvirjs Bridesburg to 10-7
Triumph Over Hilldale at
Camden Grounds
HOME RUNS FEATURE
VIOTOn KHJBNR, the local pitching
'sensation, made it twcnty-flvo vic
tories for Ms season's work thus far
when he defeated Hilldale team at Third
and Erie avenue, Camden yesterday,
by the score of 10 to 7. According to
Jess Francis, veteran third baseman
of the Darby team, the largest crowd
that ever witnessed n ball game in Cam
den saw the contest.
The feature of thc clash was the
fact thnt the extra base-hits which were
In nbundance played no part in piling
up runs. For instance, Hrldcsburg
naa one nomcr and Hilldale three, and
yet onlv four runs crossed the nlntter
on tnese wauons, as not n base-runner
wns on the paths when nny was hit.
Keene failed to pitch in his usual
brilliant form and his strikeout record
did not mount to its usual large pro
portions, only one of the colored bats
men falling a victim to his slants. Ho
was stingy with hits, however, and held
Hllldalo to seven.
Hiitts and Cochroll Star
Warry Bults and 1'hll Cockrell were
the stars. Thc former plnycd won
derful ball for Bridesburg in center
field and was also credited with three
hits, two of which were for extra bases.
Kramer was another Dridesburg player
in tho limelight.
Phil Cockrell proved the Hilldale
hero. The pitcher-slugger was Inserted
In the box score to bat for Fonnan In
the ninth and he obliged with n home
run. Johnson nnd Snndtop also poled
out four baggers, as did Kramer for
Dridesburg.
Tonight nt Richmond nnd Orthodox
streets Bridesburg will play tho South
Philadelphia Hebrew Association nnd
Manager Caskey announces that Charlie
Giock will take his turn on tho hill,
with Tommy Vols ready for emergency
duty.
.Smith at North Phils
Marshall IS. Smith has been idle for
a week, but games are now pouring in
on Manager Frank Carroll nnd a dozen
are booked for the next two weeks.
Tonight the store boys journey to Fourth
and Wingonocking streets ana meet
Perry Rclfsnydor's North Phils. The
last visit of Frank Houghkirk & Co.
to the Phlla' field resulted in a last
lmfrtriumph for thc store boys. Roy
Stelnader, who defeated Dobson on
Monday, will work for tbo home team
and "Lefty" Wilson will bo the choice
for Smith.
The Cuban Stars are tho attraction
afforded KcnBington fans by Mannger
