BY W. R. McCALLUM. WENTY-EIGHT additional entries have been received by the United States Golf Association for the national open championship to be held at the Columbia Country Club next week. This brings the total number of entries up to 260, exceeding the list at Toledo last year by about ten, and forming the largest field that ever competed in an open championship. Rogers of the Dayton, Ohio, Country For the first time in history the club holding the event this year will not put up prizes for low scores made by the players in any of the rounds. All the prizes for the open championship will be given by the United States Golf As- sociation. The winner will receive a cash pri: of $500, a gold medal and his club will have possession of the open champion- ship trophy for a year. The trophy is now in the United States, having been sent here by Ted Ray of , the present champion. Cash prizes will be given to the first ten professionals and those who tie for the first ten places. In case an amateur finishes in the first ten he will receive the equivalent of a cash prize in plate or silver. Ted Ray, the American open cham- pion, did not come to the United States to defend his title because his club would not put up the money necessary for the trip, according to information. Ray took away quite a buach of meney from the United States ufter his trip with Harry Vardon last year. Treated Well Abread.

Tomorrow night & meeting will be held at the Columbia Country Club, at which all matters pertaining to the on of the clubhouse and golf will be discussed. All volun- teers from other clubs for the gallery committee and the scoring committee are invited to be present. A buffet supper will be served at 8 o'clock.

The Scotch caddies at the golfing mecca found a new name for the blonde Hutchison. They called him “tow-hel and this sobriquet be- came general. B A rather ourious part of Hutchison's victory was the spectacular manner in which he played the seventeenth and eighteenth holes on his second round, the holes being played in a man never before parelleled in championship golf.

The executive committee for the tournament has announced that no one . will be allowed in the downstairs part of the clubhouse except the players and | members of the press. The lower locker room and grill room have been reserved for the players and newspapermen. Luncheons will be served in a tent on the east lawn of the clubhouse.

Most of the professionals will leave the Buck- wood Inn at Shawnee on the 5:50 train for Philadelphia Friday even- ing and will arrive in Washington early Saturday morning.

The circuit chamhion Dodgers lost a chance to crash into the select class by dronping their game to the Reds.

SLUGGERS BUSY IN A. L. Indians’ Long Hits Down Red Sox Twice—Yanks Beat Browns. Tigers Win in 16th. Sluggers were active yesterday In the American Leagu Extra-base clouts ‘were numerous, and in all but one game each of the teams hit in double figures. The world champion Indians got twenty- four safeties jn winning two games from the Red Sox. Eighteen walloj ‘were registered by the losers. The YIHE: won by outbatting the Browns, eleven hits to ten. The Tigers made fourteen smashes to the Athletics’ twelve and triumphed in the sixteenth inning. Coveleskle kept the Red Sox blows scattered, while the Tribe battered Bush and Carr for a 7-to-1 win in the first game. Eight doubles were knocked by the victors, Coveleskie getting two. In the 6-to-4 second encounter, Myers was driven from the slab in the first inning and the Tribe continued the attack against Thormahlen. Caldwell was the winning hurler. The Yanks thrashed the Browns, 6 to 4. Shawkey was nicked for a pair of runs in the first inning, but the Yanks got four in the third and another in the fourth off Davis. Ruth's two homers hits each, did most of the losers’ batting. ‘The Tigers nosed out the Macks, 2 to 1, when Sargent tripled and scored on Middleton's fly to right in the sixteenth inning. Welch cost the Macks a run in the eighth, when he left third base before Bhorten had caught Johnny Walker's long drive. Naylor went the route for the losers.

HELPS CLUB HE HATES Comiskey's White Sox Beat Yanks Often, Thus Aiding Indians to Stay Ahead. CHICAGO, July 13.—Anent the feat of the White Sox in taking three of four games from the Yankees, Harry Neily gives voide to some sage ob- rvations is strange,” says he, “that the Sox hurlers toil so well against the Yanks and so poorly against other clubs, omitting Faber, who is in a class by himself. Likewise base ball, as a general thin honest so far as the participan e concerned, in spite of the fact that some alleged crooks now are on trial for casting a blot on the face of the national pastime. “Comiskey does not like Dunn, who owns the Cleveland club. He does esteem Ruppert and Huston, who o the Yankees, yet Comiskey's club ha won nine games off the New Yorkers this season, while losing three. The Yanks are pursuing the Indians, owned by Comiskey's enemy, and would have them tied at least, If Comiskey's club had lost its normal percentage of games to the Yanks. “‘Queer pastime is base ball. It ha gone wrong twice in forty-five years. That's why It is so popular, why 75,000 fans will turn out to see four games t the Southside Park less than on year after the biggest scandal the sport ever knew broke.” SPORTS NEITHER OF CHICAGO’S STARS TO PITCH TODAY Kerr and .Faber Will Work Two Final Games.

July 13—McBride’s erratic athletes may follow up their 8-to-7 defeat of the White Sox in the opening contest of the series with another victory today, as neither Faber nor Kerr is due to draw the pitching assignment from Pilot William Gleason, his hurling aces being reserved for the final two battles of the set here. 1fa win should be their lot, however, it probably will be due to the fact that they are not quite so bad as the other fellows, which is the why and wherefore of the success they attained yesterday.
