NETEVENT |FIXING n to Face Test QUALIFIERS AT 16 - SURE TO HIT SOME STARS With So Many Scintillating Lights in Competition, It Will Be No Disgrace to Fail to Make Place in Medal Play Rounds. BY W. R. McCALLUM., HREE weeks from+emorrow, on August 31, the first startling change in the method of playing the national amateur golf championship will have its test—a test that finds many pessimistic as to its results while others herald the change as extremely beneficial to the game When the competition for the championship opens, out of the field of 170-0dd players who will struggle against the maze of traps and burkers at Oakmont, near Pittsburh, only 16 of them can qualify. The others must wait another year. ’ The qualifying round is at 36 holes, with the entire field playing 18 holes-on Monday and going over the same route on Wednes: Qualifi cation of only 16 players is designed by the United States Golf Associa tion to effect a reduction in the time consumed in playing the tourney.

Hushion will more than likely be trained as a running back, and will be used as relief quarterback. Luke, who tips the scales at 200, seems the logical successor for the place left vacant by Hayman, but Symington, who filled the other first year tackle position last fall, is a fast and heavy man who is counted on making a strong bid.
