As the Windy City entry prepared to smash a drive from the first tee, the hopper lit on his ball. Ruddy hesitated with club poised. His powerful club descended and the grasshopper took a joy ride, but it was a hook to the rough. Truly, the ball had wings, or at least there the ball. But Ruddy this new sort of required $ after hazard appeared. Herron, former amateur champion, the man who conquered Jones on’ this same course in 1913 and ought to know it well, as he played here for vears, met his Waterloo as he pitched to the thirteenth green. His drive was in a trap. Dave pitched out. only to find a trap on the opposite eide. Still once again he crossed the green before going down in 5. 2 over par. Dave Sand, sand, furrowed sand, and everywhére! The amateurs, after long sojourns in many pits, decided that about 99 per cent of the sand sup of the universe had been collected a Oakmont. Viewed from the e¢lub. house, if was easy to see that the traps were well populated at all stages. Bobby Jones found a num ber of the plis, but seemed to have the sand to make his recoveries beau tiful Chick Evans, after a full dayv's work with shovel and pick on his first nine, said a golfer's prayer as his drive at the tenth, carried along by an adverse wind, threatened to bury itself in a bank. “Easy ball, easy. Straighten out. Den't do that iood. That's a fine ball,” remarked Chick as the trap shoved forth and pushed his ball out into the middle of the fairway Ei Loeffler, the man who built Oakmont, strolled up to the taily board. After looking over the 80s and 90s, Emil remarked. “Looks as if 154 might qualify, but I doubt it If we have rain these feilows will find that the lightning greens have turned on them, for a coaking sure slowed them up.” il was not surprised at the high scores, for he said be- fore the tournament started that few of the players would shoot par, PADDLING_REGATTA ON POTOMAC SUNDAY The annual regatta of the Dela- ware-Chesapeake division of the Amer- ican Canoe Racing Assoclation wili be staged here next Sunday under the auspices of Washington Canoe Club instead of on Labor day as previously announced While crews from at least half a dozen of the leading clubs of this sec tion will attend the annual affatr, the big feature of the water carnival will be the first meeting on local waters of Potomac Boat Club and Washing- ton Canoe Club paddlers. Teams of the two organizations have met in & finieh fight in practl- cally every regatta they have attended during the Summer, the Washington men winning out on several occasions, but the Potomacs evening the score on others. As the Potomac Club cap- tured eight of the national half-mile championships at Burlington, N. J.. last Saturday, while the Washingtons took only four, the latter will be out for_blood on Sunday. Crews are expected from the Mary- land Swimming Club of Baitimore, the Lakanoo Boat Club of Burlington, N. J.. the Red Dragon Canoe Club of Edgewater Park, N. J., and the Old Dominion Boat Club of Alexandria. The Young Men's Assoclation of Bristol, N. J., and the Tuscarora Club of Newark, N. J.. may possibly be represented as well. Senior events on the program be- ginning at 2 o'clock are for single and double blade singles and the Red Dragon trophy race. Junior numbers are identical with the exception of the latter event. at | | | | up a (Copyright. | 1925, by North American Newspaper There's an “Alice in Wonderland” tale for you! how it comes about: Don't think for a minute that a rich man’s son, who may happen to be spindle-legged and flat-chested, is in any way understocked in the prevailing ambition to make a noise in college which will echo out in the world. The old days of vague ‘cultural” ambitions are passing: undergraduates now have a degree of sophistication which would astonish their elders, and they all know that the best means of making the world look their way is to shove into the spotlight of college athletics—one way or another. Before showing just where the am- bitious but perhaps anemlc rich boys “head in” it will be necessary to go back a few years. Possibly the read- er will recall that in his college days foot ball heroes affected an ostenta- tions untidiness; moleskins, shoes and helmets were incrusted mud; on and exactly a studied affectation, but a calm assumption of immunity from common standards. You will recall Bull McSwatt, who got a red sweater with a letter on it in his first year— they could do it then—and who was reputed never to have taken it off during the rest of his college course. Well Groomed Players. Gradually there came a change, With increased competition and with the tightening up of the business or- ganization of foot ball success stand- ards began to be bullt up. Coaches and graduate managers began to take the slack here, and one of the first things they discovered was that untidiness impairs efficiency. Details of laundry, the care of uniforms and equipment and minutiae of grooming and fitness of the plavers came to be more and more important. This came at about the beginning of the “phrophylactic era” in Amer- ica, and no doubt it paralleled the gen- eral outside drift in this direction. At any rate, foot ball players sud- denly developed a fastidjous insistence upon the utmost cleanliness of sweat- ers, uniforms and equipment. They no longer had to be belabored by coaches and managers. Laundry bil went kyrocketing. The laundry charges for a big college team today would almost run a small outfit of the old days. It meant endless work and expense to keep the prima donnas spick-and- span. Managers and coaches devel- oped the crub”’ manager system Here's where the rich boys come in. Training quarters alway 1 been frequented by ea but physically dublous young men of means, Who until then had been little more than nuisance. The graduate manager of a big Eastern college was, so far as I know, the first to put them to work. First he set them to cleaning mud off the cleats of the shoes after the men returned from other details of uniforms and equip- ment Recompensed by a Title. Other colleges began to develap the scrub manager system, the boys being amply recompensed by the title “as sistant manager.” The real effective- ness of the system was achieved when it became the custom to choose the undergraduate manager from these assistants, and to bestow upon him the much-coveted but otherwise un- attainable “letter.” Presently it became customary to have on hand at each big college from 20 to 25 such “assistant managers.” This meant a valet for each of the men on the first and second teams. The scrub managers, many of them no doubt boys who at home had their own valets, wait on the side lines. Each Sancho Panza receives his own Don Quixote, and helps him undress and get under the shower, which the serub adjusts to just the right tem- perature. Then he carefully scrapes all the mud off the cleats of the shoes and, if they require it, plunges them into a pail of tar oil and massages them to kid-glove softness. . This is just the beginning. There is endless detail of cleaning and polish ing helmets and getting jerseys and breeks ready for the next day. As a result of all this foot ball squads have become as fussy as West Point cadets. A smear of dirt is anathema. Bull McSwatt, who looked as if he needed a brisk application of a curry comb, is as obsolete as the three-toed hor The far, shining goal of all this, for the busy scrub managers, is the under- graduate managership. That means a lot more than you might think—for reasons to be later disclosed—and even the title “assistant manager,” looming up on the boys' private sta- tionery, or blazoned in the junior an. nual, ‘is not so insignificant as it might seem. They Fetch and Carry. 1 have seen slender, manicured, be- spectacled lads wallowing in tar oil and mud and resin, and meekly ac- cepting curt orders to fetch and carry from big, raw-boned country boy Standard Cigar & Tobaceo Co.

CAPE GRIS NEZ, France. Sep- tember 1 Gertrude Ederle during the past two days seemingly has lost that superb confidence which was hers when she made her first attempt, August 18, to swim the English Channel from France to England. Since her failure to cross the turbu- lent stretch of sea she has been brooding; she has more respect for the old waterway than before she essayed to master it. | Miss Ederle had expected to get away from Gris Nez at 6 o'clock this morning, but the channel last night was kicking up such seas that it would have been hard work for small vessels to cross it. Previously the water had been very calm, and when the change suddeniy came late vesterday the American girl called of her Tuesday morning trial and set it for Wednesday morning at 7 o'clock. Meanwhile the season against her. The water, mild temperature several daily is working of z fairly days ago, is growing colder, and in addi- tion, as September advances, fogs join’ with the tempestuous seas to make the channel a place of discom fort even for the regular channel boats. Therefore Miss Ederle must make her effort quickly or give up the project for this year. The correspondent or ciated Press yesterday showed the American mermalid pictures of her father and mother at their New Jer- sey Summer home printed in a New York newspaper and let her read the story accompanying them. In it the parents expressed themselves as not being discouraged over ‘“Trudy failure.

The important thing to the purchaser is the total cost of a car. The time payment charge is a part of such total cost when the car is bought on time. These reductions therefore mean, in such instances, a sub- stantially lowered total cost.
