AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP OPENS WITH A BIG FIELD merican Players Will Have Splendid Chance to Win at Deal if They Can Survive the First And Second Match Rounds. BY WALTER HAGE! British Open Champlon. MERICAN and English golfers are battling for the British amateur A championship at Deal. If I were writing about our own amateur championship I would tell about the big field, the qualifying round and the possibilities of this and that one being left behind by poor medal | play on the opening day. | In the “Tight Little Isle” the Royal and Ancient Club never has found it necessary to have a qualifying round, no matter how many enter the tournament. We in America figure that the combination of medal and match play makes a stiffer test of the game. We figure also that thirty- six-hole matches are the means of determining the better golfer, because the element of luck is more likely to even itself up than in cighteen.

The French sporting papers are unsparing in their criticisms of the Toulouse-Biarritz match recently played as the semi-finals in the | French championships. The match was termed as an “ex- ample of street fighting” for Toulouse finished with twelve players of its fifteen men on the disabled list. The Biarritz casualties were eleven. No substitutes are allowed in French rugby. Rough work is not due to the rules govering the game, which is much more oFen than American college foot ball, but to the keen rivalries between the teams representing the different parts of the country.
