G W, T PLAYBASEBAL Nine Contests Closed, Two Othenl Pending and More Sought—Sea- son Will Open March 25. Georgg Washington has no playing fleld, but a trifle like that has not kept Manager Ed Hanson from sched- uling games for his base ball team. Nine contests have been listed for the Hatchetites, two others are pending and the management hopes to add a couple of local colleges. So far, Gal- laudet is the only District institution that will be encountered. Six of the games are to be played on the home grounds and the probiem of securing them now confronts the manager and the director of student activities. It was deemed wiise on ac- count of this handicap to arrange only a brief campaign. The schedule has not been ratified by the board of man- agers, but there is every indication that it will be formally adopted when the contracts are all in. The sched- ule follow: March 25, Cardinal Athletic Club at Alexandria, April 6, St. John's; 9, Gallaudet at Kendall Green; 14, William and Mary; 25, Trinity; 27, St. John’s at Annapolis; 28, Villanova (pending).

SHINGTON and the Columbia Country Club at Chevy Chase, W Md,, are to be hosts to the greatest aggregation of golfing talent that ever has been gathered together in one city next summer. The Columbia Country Club, whose membership is made up largely of Washington business men, is going to make the United States open cham- pionship, that will be played over its course, July 19-22, the biggest and best that ever has been held. The success of the event already is assured; first, by the attitude . taken by the men in charge of the tournament—one that will spare no effort or expense to bring success—and second, by the fact that it has been definitely announced that Great Britain's best professional players and all the best in the United Statees will compete. Add to these two fac- tors the proposition that the open will be played this year over what has been termed the “leading” course in America by two such authorities as Ted Ray and Harry Vardon, and it can be easily seen that the 1921 open will without doubt take first rank in the list of American open champion- FREDDIE McLEOD, CLUB PROFESSIONAL. Tennis Cup Challenge Round Is Awarded to Forest Hills N night as follows: EW YORK, February 5—Awards for the principal championship tournaments of the National Tennis Association were made to- Davis cup, challenge round, West Side Club, Forest Hills, N. Y., to begin September 2. Men’s national singles championship, Germantown Cricket Club, Philadelphia, September 10. Men’s doubles and mixed doubles, Longworth Cricket Club, Boston, na date set. National clay court men’s championship, Chicago, time and to be designated by the Western Tennis Association. piace ‘Women'’s national championship, West Side Club, Forest Hills, N. Y., no date set. ‘The Philadelphia Country Club was| a contender for the latter tourna- ships. Ray will be here, Duncan, the pre-l sent British open champion will be here and it has been announced (hul1 Abe Mitchell, claimed to be the long- est hitter in the world, will come as well as several of the lesser lights in British golf. Harry Vardon, who played with Ray in an exhibition match at Columbia last summer, will not come over this year. He has made his last American trip. To uphold the reputation of the United States in this matter of pro- fessional golf there will be the American “big three”, Hagen, Barnes and Hutchison. Leo Diegel, Jack Burke, Tommy Kerrigan. Tom Mec- Namara, Gil Nichols, Mike Brady. Emmett French and scores of others will be up there, battling with the leaders next July and it is not too much to predict that one of these American stars will mount the heights where Ted Ray now stands and bring back the championship to the United States. McLeod Will Be Factor. Freddie McLeod, the little pro at the Columbia Country Club, who won the open in 1908 over the difficult Myopia course, must be considered separately. McLeod is somewhat of an uncertain quantity. Critics every- where agree that Fred is easily among the first ten American pro- fessionals and also over His own course he will take a lot of beating. In the opinion of the writer, however, McLeod’s position in the coming championship depends in very large degree on the score made. in his first round of the championship proper. Given a good start the little Scot will take a terriffic lot of beating over his own course. As to the course, the links over which the leading professional golf- ers of the world will battle for the American open title next July will be the longest Columbia course that has ever been played. From the back tees the course will measure up some 6,600 yards long. And like- wise it will be, aside from the point of distance, the most difficult Colum- bia course that any one has ever seen. Changes now in progress and one con- templated, but not yet started, not all of which lengthen it, will greatly stiffen the course and make it one on which a score of 70 will be a real score indeed—even with the world's best shooting at this mark. Course Is 6,387 Yards Long. The Columbia cqurse, by the card. is 6,387 yards long. Since printing of the score card, however, the fourth hole has been shortened and the fifth hole made much longer. A new tee has been buflt at the eleventh hole and a new tee is under construction at the fourteenth, making this a true dog leg hole. A little distance will be lost by shifting the eleventh green, making the hole a total distance of about 425 yards. But yardige does not mean as much at Columbia as at some other cham- plonship courses. .In fact, yardage will mean very little compared with shot placing during the coming cham- pionship. The Jong hitter who can- not place his ball abeut where he wants it will be playing under a dis- advantage, while the accurate player of average length should find some of the gdifficulties of the course ironed out to a large degree. The greens. particularly the new one, have been 80 constructed that they can be ap- proached from only one angle. Any attempt to play to several of them, Real Championship Course, Says M’Leod, Columbia Pro ary 5—Due to the wonderfu | play of Pat O'Hnra, the Irinh champion, Freddie Mcleod, Co- lumbia star, and Tom Moore of Washington were beaten in a beat ball match here today, 5 and 4. Donald Clark, last week’s tournament, O'Hara’s partner. O'Hara was around in 70, three strokes bet- ter than par. notably the seventh, ninth, fifteenth |and perhaps the new eleventh. will be apt to cost more than one stroke. | As yet plans are only in the making for the details of the championship. The course is there and will be vastly | better than that at present by the {time mid-summer arrives, but tour- | nament commitees. exclusive of. the | greens committee. have not yet been {appointed. The latter committee will have plenty of work to do with up- keep of the course. No Best Ball Match. The amateur-professional best ball match, which usually precedes the ‘open championship of the United |States, will be dispensed with this Iyear, it is understood, because several iof the authorities at Columbia do not ibelieve it adds to the attraction of the tournament. The belief is that the amateur-pro event. while it pro- ‘vides good competition, has no bhear- ing on the tournament proper and. takes time that might be put in for practice by the professionals. i" This does not mean. of course. that America’s best amateurs will not be ihere. It is practically assured that {Bobby Jones of Atlanta, Charles Evans, jr. of Chicago, the amateur ! champion, S. D. Herron of Pittsburgh; Ithe 1919 champion, Woody Platt of | Philadelphia and several other first- i class amateurs, will be on hand. Rob- | ert A. Gardner of Chicago, twice ama- | teur champion, will be at Columbla in his capacity as a committeeman of the United States Golf Association land will probably play in_the cham- | ptonship. Most of the prominent professionals of this country have played over the ! Columbia course. A great many of them competed in the open tourna- ment given by the club in April. 1917 and many others have played as guests of McLeod. As for the British entrants, they will have at least a | week of practice before the tourna ment, if they leave for the United States soon after the British open, and do not stay too long in New York. All Members Alding. President John H. Hanna of the Columbia Country Club has enlisted the aid of every member of the club to make the event of open champion- ships. G. H. Chasmar, chairman of the greens committee, has called into consultation the leading course ex- perts of the country, including Wal- ter J. Travis, who has had a great deal to do with the building of Co- lumbia, and Profs. C. V. Piper and R. A. Oakley of the Department of Agri- culture, grass experts, who also are members of the greens committee of the United States Golf Association. ‘Washington may look forward to the open championship with every as- surance that the tourney to be held at Columbia, will be a credit to the city and’ the club. | ! l ST.

Those who havent and who will attend the National open championship this season will learn then of its merits and how satisfactory it will be for championship play. Insofar as the course is concerned, the championship for* 1921, which undoubtedly will be the greatest ever held, is assured of success. Ted Ray, the present National champion, after he had played the Columbia course last summer, pronounced it as one of the best he had report in June. 4 0F 5 EVENTS TO NAY Sinclair Breaks Collegiate Record in 220-Yard Swim; Relay Ties World Mark. ANNAPOLIS, Md., February 5.—In a five-event program of athletic competi- tions at the Naval Academy this after- noon, the Midshipmen cleaned up in the four big attractions, losing only in the fencing bouts. This single defeat was 85. | administered by Army officers, former rival cadets at West Point. The Navy wrestling team completely outclagsed Tufts College, taking all the bouts; the basket ball team was success- ful in’a stifiy contested game with Vir- ginia, 30 to 18; the gymnasts downed Pennsylvania in a good meet, 36 to 18, and the swimmers overwhelmed the mermen of Pittsburgh, 52 to 10. Sinclair, a Washington boy, clipped 1 1-5 seconds off the intercollegiate rec- ord for the 220-yard swim, and the Navy relay team equaled the world record for 160 yards, 1 minute 16 4-5 seconds. Army defeated Navy, 14 to §, in the fencing bouts. There were bouts with foils, sabers and dueling swords. ENTERS OCEAN RACE. Undaunted to Sail for Cup Offered by Belgian King. NEW YORK, February 5.—The Un- daunted, a three-masted _schooner yacht owned by Francis R. Mayer, commodore of the Atlantic Yacht Club, has been entered in the inter- national yacht race for the ‘“cham- plonship of the seas” cup offered by King Albert of Belgium. The race is to start July 4 at Sandy Hook, N. J, and will end at Ostend, Belgium. ‘The Undaunted, formerly the Karina, is one of the largest sailing yachts of America, wving an over-all length of 198 feet 7 inches, a waterline of 160 feet, beam 33 feet 9 inches and draw- faet of waton at_the March meeting. n'l‘he best preliminary match for the avis Ccup tournament was suggested for Newport, R. I, and othe‘r'epre- liminary matches for Pittsburgh, Chi- cago, Cleveland, New York, Boston, Philadelphia and the Northwestern Tennis Association; the city to be chosen by that body. The dates and final locations were.left to the Davis cup committee. Bars Names From Raekets. At tonight's session the association voted to change the rule governing amateur players to read that any tennis player becomes a professional when he allows his name to be print- ed upon a tennis racquet or other tennis paraphernalia, whether or not he receives money for the use of his name. Another important step taken Was the decision to confine future annual renkings to twenty names each in men’s, women’s and junior singles, and to ten teams in the men's dou- bles. The association further decided that in the future mixed doubles cham- pionships would be held in connection with the men's doubles tournament instead of at the women's tourna- ent. Myrick Chosen President. Officers elected were: President, J. 8. Myrick, New York; vice president, E. F. Torrey, Clinton, N. tary, G. Garland, Pittsburg! urer, J. N. Jennings, Philadelphia. The annual report showed that the association had assets of $22,000. The committee in charge of the amal- gamation of the United States National Tennis Association with the Interna- tional Lawn Association reported that it was considered advisable to take this Step at the présent time. The com- mittee said it was not able to approve joining the International association because of the rule which the latter body had made granting the world's grass court tournaments to England each year. The International was established several years ago abroad and comprises most of the national federations of other countgies. The committes, however, felt that the tournaments should be held in various countries, decided-that until this rule was withdrawn the United States tion should not becomse & Inewm~ £ v ever played on or had seen in his tour. Many other stars who have played over these links have stated.it is an ideal course for a championshippm:et. Freddie McLeod, the diminutive Scot j right of the tee, about 100 yards dis- wizard who won the national title back in 1908 over the Myopia Hunt Club course and who is at present lo- cated here as the professional of the St. Augustine links, is very enthu- siastic about the course. He declares it will surprise everybody who at- tends the national open this year. McLeod. is the pro at Columbia, s0 that it would be only natural if he were inclined to sing the praises of these links. MeLeod Should Know. But McLeod has played practically every course in the country, has par- ticipated in no less than eighteen na- tional open championship tourna- ments, and never has been outside the money.
