L It came during the second round and Fownes and I were opponents. Reaching the turn he was leading me 7 up, but then I began to pick up on him and soon had strong hopes of | galning the lead. These hopes were | augmented when, on reaching the 16th hole, he hooked his drive into rough and behind some tall trees, | while I put my ball straight ahead. | I was in easy position to regeh green in 2, so that I appeared {o ha a fine chance to take the hole. This would leave me only 1 down with my opponent off his gam but two holes to go. a squ was not hard to envision. Fownes had a very hard shot be- fore him if he tricd for the green In the first place he was a full 180 vards from the flag. condly, his | lle was in deep grass. Third, the trees | behind which he was placed were so high that it was not possible to shoot over them and obtain distance. Fourth, he was compelled to carry over a very bad hazard, in the shape of a gully, to reach the green, with | an excellent chance that he might | drop in a brook that ran through the hazard. Fifth, this selfsame brook gurgled around three sides of the green, which was set in the side of a hill. Lastly, the, green was a bit slippery and sloped downward away him. ZPhere was only one way for my jpponent to get past the trees and &@dh the green, and that was by Your Old Hat Made New Again Somoiting "y Hiperie Vienna Hat Co. 409 11th Street SERVICE A. A, A.

To base ball writers in the ofice of William J Fallon, his attorney, Dolan re-enacted the incidents before and during his three hearings before Commissioner Kenesaw M. Landis and recited again what he claims was his testimony at the examinations in the Waldorf-As- toria. At no time in the interview was there any sensational revelations. Do- lan denied the truth of Judge Landis' version of what happened at the hearings, denled that he had only said, “I don’t remember,” in answer to direct questions, and asserted with emphasts that he had told the com- missioner he was innocent of the ges and knew nothing of an al- lexed attempt to bribe Sand to throw a game to the Giants drove the ball among in the stands. Kamm also played a fine ga ertson was the best 219 3—11 m in his protestations of cence that he had a violent scene with Commissioner Landis, in which the former jurist, according to Dolan, shouted, “I'm an old man, but I think I can still take care of myself if you have come down here to start fight.” Dolan a included the name of John McGraw in his narration when he said that he had told McGraw and Charles A. Stoneham, president of the Giants, in the presence of the com- missioner, that he didn't “know thing about this." Dolan’s version varied sharply from that of Judge Landis. The commis- sioner declared that when he asked Cozy whether he had talked with O'Connell and suggested the bribe of- fer, Dolan had answered three times, “I don’t re mber.” On the other hand, Dolan asserts that his answer was “I don’t remember such an inci- dent, I don’t remember such a conversation.” Between the two an- swers, of course, there is a difference and it is on this rock that the two versions split Dolan denied heatedly that at any time he had replied: “I don’t remem- ber.” He said that his answers had always been either a direct denial of the charge or the equivalent of such « denial Step by step he led his listeners through all the incidents of the case, beginning with his original summons to Landis’ suite in the Waldorf, pass- ing through the first hearing and the incidents that night, then re-enacting the developments at the second hear- ing and his suspension that night. As a climax he set forth his version of the third hearing, during the world series, when the commissioner and coach are sald to have waxed stormy. After Dolan had been questioned for an hour, Fallon declared he would press his efforts to clear Dolan, re- in base ball and obtain for him his share ot the world series money. He said he expected to file papers within three or four days. - The speed of modern racing boats is 38 knots an hour, or 60 feet per second PLTLIIIT LTI I LI LT L L L LTI L2 Take the Wheel of a “Gardner” You'll Love the Sensation It Gives You LLILIILLIIL 111111 LLL L PP L 1L A ‘Without Extra Cost on CREDIT Try our easy payment plan— there is no red tape or unnec- essary delay—you get the tires when you come in.

NEW YORK, October 24.—The State of Pennsylvania, always a develcper of remarkable £oot ball teams, Is go- ing to have more than its usual num- ber of star aggregations this year. Penn, Penn State, Lafayette and W. and J. all have strong teams, and Pittsburgh, despite the loss of Glenn Warner, promises to do well under Sutherland. Pennsylvania has made up her mind that this is the year to turn the tables on Cornell and, incidentally, take some revenge on other friends. Lou Young has one or two stars about whom not much is generally known, but who are the real thing and promise to bolster up Penn's at- tack. Couch Bezdek has not been entirely satisfied with his Penn State team for a year or two and has started a few innovations {n tife line of attack which are likely to prove deceptive. Two years ago Lafayette and W. and J. showed the most advanced foot ball of any teams in the country when they met for that memorable game on the Polo Grounds, in which Lafayette scored 13 points in the first balf and W. and J. came back with 14 in the second half. §Neither was quite up to the standard last year, but both look good this Fall.

BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK, October 24—Out in San Francisco, where Jimmy O'Con- N nell, the center of the Giant bribery scandal, has gone to nurse his broken heart, there are a lot of people who be ieve O'Connell's story that he believed he was acting under “club orders” when he ap- proached Sand of the Philadelphia Nationals with an ofier of $500 to throw a game to the hard-pressed Giants. This, despite the fact that all the players involved by O'Connell, with the exception of “Cozy” Dolan, have successfully gotten from under, and that Dolan has convinced some of the base ball writers here in the East that he had nothing to do with the affair and was given a raw deal by Commissioner Landis when he was ousted from the game along with O’Connell. O'Connell’s friends can readily un- derstand why he might have acted under what he thought were “club orders,” fo' he had just been given a chance to get back into t ilant line-up after having been benched twice for failure to obey playing in- structions O'Connell, his coast friends say, is more an Instinctive ball player than anything else. They regard him as a “square shooter” and refuse to believe he originated the plan to bribe Sand. Here’s the story O'Connell is telling on the coast, where, from all reports, he is near a nervous and physical breakdown over the affair. “I was sitting in the locker room with Dolan and he turned to me and said: ‘You're pretty strong with Heinle Sand. Go and offer him $500 if the Phillies won't bear down on us too hard.’ “I felt that Dolan.in a way repre- sented the club.
