It was thought he would be off on his ap- proaches and that Evans would beat him at this, the department of play in which Chick is acknowledged the best in the world. But he did not. Instead, Sweetser was usually straight ahead, and it was Chick who was oftemest ln' the rough, who was trapped or bunk- ered trying to get to the greens and who, once on, fell short or overran in putting for the hole. In every match in which he advanced in this tournament—his defeat of H. E. | {Kenworthy of Providence, of Willie I. Hurter, former British amateur cham- pion; of Jesse P. Guilford, the champion whom he set back to succeed today; of Bobby Jones, who, youthful star though he is, is still Sweetser's elder by a month, and of “Chick” Evans, a veteran able to avoid such situations most of the time—Sweetser eet up stymies to impede his adversary. This is the first year of the stymie's restoration and, without having been the cause, it was still a factor in the making of the champion of this year. In his victory today he reversed the result of his previous meeting with Evans, when he was defeated 1 up in the third round of the national tour- nament at St. Louls last year. Ends on the 34th Hole. The closing scene today was on the sixteenth green, at the thirty-fourth hole of the match, where both Sweet- ser and Evans had driven to the green from the tee 130 yards away. Chick's ball rested eight feet away, Jess' was ten feet distant. The crowd swept down the fairways, the players were passed through, and Sweetser took his putter while all sound was stilled. Dormie 3, as almost gave his victory a touch of the sensational by boldly cking for a birdie 2 to win in a single stroke. He missed by inches. Chick, who had stalled defeat by win- ning the hole before, tried to stem it again, also shooting boldly for the cup. He, too, fell short, and the match ended, not with the dropping of a ball, but with Evans shaking the hand of his conqueror, conceding the hole and the match. The crowd then took the new champlon into its hands and lon its shoulders, and he was carried off_the course. Sweetser's victory was well and fairly earned. He both outplayed and outgamed his battle-scarred opponent. Three up at the close of the morning round, the Yale undergraduate never dropped but one below that leading margin, and at times was four up on the veteran, who was thus forced to fight from behind. Each hole won or halved by Jess saw another chance to overtake slip away from Chick, and after the twenty-seventh hole was passed, with Sweetser still three to | the good, the westerner realized that nothing but a marvelous break could bring him victory. Luck Is Against Evans. Aside from the several stymies which the metropolitan expert laid for the Chicago star, Evans saw at least two heart-breaking twists of luck in favor of his opponent, just when he appeared to be in a position to cut down Sweetser's lead. In the after- noon round, when but two down, Evans played a perfect second to the twenty-seventh green, only to see Jess drop his from a hard lay, using a rib- bed mashie four feet from the cup, and sink a birdie 3. On the next hole the easterner got away a bad drive and lay deep in the rough while Chick was on, fiffeen feet from the pin with a niblick second at the end of a 325- vyard hole. YA ooked like a sure advantage for Evans, but Sweetser's mashie second after landing in the rough above and to the left of the green trickled down onto the velvet turf and rolled up to 2 position as good as that of Evans. The break appeared to disturb Chick, and he was inches short with his putt. The best he could do then was to halve. These two breaks might be sald to mark the turning.point in the match. Neither player held entirely to the form he had shown in the earlier Toun: particularly -t sem! flnflt The First Thing to Do When You Return From Your Vacation Is to ORDER THE STAR Delivered to your home by regular carrier servico— “FROM PRESS TO HOME WITHIN THE HOUR;!

THE BIGGEST COMEDY HIT OF THE AFFA Birdie scores, frequent in the prelim- inary periods of the match play, were not conspicuous. Sweetser's 36 for the second nine holes of the fore- noon was the only par score of the day. “Funny, it always happens this way in the final,” Chick remarked at one time. Sweetser Is Given Cup. Immediately after the match J. Kirkwood Byers, president of the United States Golf Assoclation pre- sented the Havemeyer cup, emblem- atic of the national amateur cham- plonship, to the titleholder while the huge throngs who had trailed the {finalists applauded. Chick Evans stood beside his con- queror while President Byers spoke and the broad and care-free smile which he wore throughout the grill- ing days of tournament play never feltered for a_moment, as he saw the cup which he had received twice pass into the hands of & younger cham- pion. The president of the U: 8. G. A. paid high tribute to the sportsman- ship of the gallery and the players, and expressed his great pleasure in the international aspect of the tour- nament, He told his hearers that Cyril J. H. Tolley, former British champion, who was eliminated in the third round play, had asked him to tell the gallery that he had never played before fairer and more sports- manlike spectators in his years of IR. tournament play at home and abroad. The whirlwind campaign over golf courses this year for the twenty-year- old champion, brought to a splendid climax today, included the breaking, officially, of four amateur competitive course records, and the actual, but unofficial, competitive course record of the Coun- try Club here with a 69 in match play against Bobby Jones yesterday.

Leaders Feel Time Not Ripe to Push Cut in Armies, Due to World Unrest. By the Associated Press. GENEVA, September 9.—The league of natlons, it is generally conceded, will not interfere in Asia Minor af- fairs unless for the protection of minorities after the governments have fixed peace terms between the Greeks and Turks. The first phase of the third as- sembly of the league ended today with the close of the general debate on the council's work without giving any indication as to what the as- sembly may do. The tone of the speeches. including those of the lead- ers, such as Lord Robert Cecil, the Earl of Balfour and M. Hanotaux, tended to show they were con- vinced that the league at the present was unable to make much progrese in any direction other than toward what is called “moral disarmament.” Would Prepare World's Mt This will consist of the preparation of the minds of the people throughout the world for abandonment of force as & means of settlement in interna- disputes. Lord Robert Cecll, one of the most active of league en- thusiasts who have contended that the league must go ahead and act on all questions within the scope of the covenant, says frankly that under present circumstances the league can- not do much but content itself with what it can do, pending the time when the political situation will al- low the government to look at dis- armament from a different angle than today. Leon Bourgeois and the Earl of Balfour, who have been in constant consultation, argue that the world is not ready for the important work the league was set up to do, and that the present assembly must be steered clear of knotty world problems. The Earl of Balfour in the assembly de- clared that the league cannot now replace the government in interna- tional affatr: Balfour Warns Delegates. Lord Balfour warned the delegates against too great expectations. A few enthusiastic members, however, such as M. Motta and,Dr. Nansen, held that the league ought to act with greater boldness. The general opin- jon of the delegates is that Lord Roberts’ plan of continentul agree- ments for the protection of frontlers will be adopted and that plans will be laid for other international con- ferences and restriction of arms traffic and the extension of the Wash- ington naval accord to members of the league who were not represented at Washington. Beyond this little will be done ex- cept for the protection of minorities in the territories that changed their sovereignty and promotion of the RAIL WRIT HEARING MAY UNCOVER PLOT (Continued. from First Page.) dsnt Willard, who returned home last night, may return early in the week.

Neo Intereat to Some. “The ‘recalcitrant’ roads did not in any way object to the rest of us set- tling the strike separately with the unfons, because their attitude is that the strike is no longer of any interest ta them.” B. M. Jewell, head of the shop crafts, and other union officials re~ fused to commemt in any way on the progress of the strike. A statement was lssued by the Association of Rallway Executives, rting there had been a steady increase in the number of men em- ployed in the shops and that a large volume of business was being moved. “The number of men employed in the shops of the western rallways had increased to 65 per cent of the num- ber before the strike began,” the statement said. “The volume of freight now being moved by the rail- ways of the United States is ap- proximately as large as in the same part of the wear 1920, when it was the largest in the history of the country. The total carloads moved in the week ended August 26 was 390,838, which was 62,000 carloads larger than in the same week of 1921, and 38438 more than in the first week of August.” Will Try to Prove Plot. In connecffon with the arrival of evidence to be used at the injunction hearing Monday, federal agents said that an effort would be made to prove the existence of a nation-wide railroad sabotage plot and it was in- dicated that wholesale indictments would ze sought against those held responsible by the government. The evidence brought to Chicago was eaid to contain thousands of telegrams, letters, photographs, blue prints and books, together with tran- scripts of statements of 17,000 per- sons who have been interrogated by federal authorities. The data was sald by government officials to reveal plots for the wreck- ing of railway equipment, the dis- abling of locomotives, the causing of wrecks, the burning of bridges and the obstruction of the mail. It also was intimated that the gov- ernment would ask for subpoenas for all defendants in the injunction pro- ceedings. This would require the presence of some 250 individuals in court. = M’CORMICK GIRL MISSING.
