By GEORGE McMANUS HAVE TO -G DIEGEL HAS COMPETI § i Horton Smith The two Smiths—Horton and Mac—will be battling with Leo petroit Diegel, the champion, for possession of the Rivermead Cup, emblematic | Washington of the championship, in the Canadian open, July 25-27. By BRIAN BELL (A. P. Sports Writer) ! NEW YORK, July 23.—If Leo Diegel can successfully beat back the formidable opposition he will; encounter in defense of his Cana- dian open golf championship, the Rivermead cup, emblematic of the! title, will take the longest journey | of its 25 year old life. The title| will be decided at Montreal, July | 25-27. | Diegel, the only golfer to win the Canadian title three times, now | is playing from Agua Caliente, Mezico, and although the Canadian cup has been won by golfers from ! the United States for the last ten | years, it has never beiore been: threatened by such a sudden trans- | fer from north to south. The reigning monarch won the title for the third time at Toronto last year with a score of 282. He| scored 70 and 68 on the final day | to keep out in front. Walter Ha- | gen, Archie Compston and Mac- donald Smith tied for second place, two strokes behind. Smith finish-. ed with a round in 67. i The best pros in the United States and a sprinkling of crack amateurs will battle Leo's rights to repeat. Among the former cham- pions expected to seek the title! again are Tommy Armour, Mac- donald Smith and Al Watrous. This | is one of the few titles Hagen has| not been able to capture and he| will shoot at it again as will his partner, Horton Smith, the lean Missourian. Among the amateurs expected to make a determired bid will be George Von Elm, the De- troit star, who was a threat to the | last in the United States open at ‘Winged Foot. The late J. Douglas Edgar of At- lanta, won the Canadian title, when the classic was resumed after the war in 1919, with a record breaking score of 278. He repeated the next year, after a play-off with C.| R. Murray and Tommy Armour, the nan amateur. William Tro- | vinger won in 1921 and Al Wat- | rous in 1922. Clarence Hackney took the championship in 1923 and | Leo Diegel in 1924 and 1925. Mac Smith was the 1926 winner and Tom Armour won in 1927, beating out the champion. This year’'s championship will be played over a course of the Kana- waki golf club, Montreal. A qualify- ing round of 36 holes will be played Thursday, July 25, all players re- | maining within 20 strokes of the Jeacder continuing the competition through the 72 holes of medal play | Friday and Saturday.
