D. C. GOLFER’S 1925 PLAY OF INTERNATIONAL CLASS -Deserves to Be One of Ten Players Due to Invade England Next Summer if U. S. G. A. Adheres to Its Announced Selective Plan. t BY W. R. McCALLUM, when the powers in the United States Golf As- sociation get ready to name a team of 10 p'ayers to represent the IVE 'months hence, o United States in its defense o ington goliers will look with intcrest on the sclections to see whether Roland R. MacKenzie of Columbia of the city, is named as a member. The competition for the famou 1920, now is being held every two volved in sending teams abroad, e land. No competition was held th American team last year in matches prior to the national amateur championship at Merion. Last vear Roland MacKenzie was 0t an outstanding figure in the world of amateur golf as he is today, al- though even then, before his game “lmd reached the power it has at-| fained in the last 12 months, he was Xnown from .coast to coast for his spirited match agalnst George von Elm. This year Roland is recognized 18 one of the finest golfers in the land, the medalist in the national champlon- ship and a contestant worthy of any amateur golfer, 1925 Play to Govern. The United States Golf Assoclation has announced it will pick the Walker cup team on the basis of showings made in the big amateur events of the year preceding that of the cup competition. This contest in Ingland will be held early next June, preceding the British amateur cham- plonship. On the strength of this announce- ment it can hardly leave off any in- ternational team Roland MacKenzie, the medalist; Watts Gunn, the run- ner-up, and Richard A. Jones, the semi-finalist, who beat MacKenzie “nd performed sensationally through- out the toyrney. Previous” Walker cup teams have included several men whose records hardly entitled them to places on the international aggregation that rep- Tesented this country. Strahgely enough, Iyr. O. F. Willlug, & man un- known in the East, who was selected «n the representations of the Far Western group, saved the cup for the United States in 1923 f the Walker cup in Engiand, Wash- Country Club, the outstanding player s international golf trophy, begun in cars-on account of the expense in- her from the United States or Eng- vear. The cup was retained by the held at the National Golf Links just This year W. C. Fownes, scheduled to be the new president of the asso- clation, probably will captain the team, even though he may not play. A line- up based on the 1926 competition would jnclude MacKenzie, Robert T. Jones, jr., the champion, Watts, Gunn, Dick Jones. 5 Jess Sweetser, Francls Ouimet, George Von Elm, Jesse Gullford, Keefe Carter, the Western amateur cham- plon, and Eddie Held. Old Champions Out. ‘The group of former champions, rep- resented by Chick Evans, Bob Gard- ner, Max Marston and Davidson Her- ron, all of whom have played on prev- lous Walker Cup teams, could not be selected by the United States Golf As- sociation, If the assoctation proceeded | with Its selections on the basis of | 1925 competition, for not one of these men won an important large cham- plonship, even though they have all won national titles In the past and are recognized as golfers of the first rank. Al four failed to qualify at Oakmont. As far as Roland MacKenzle is con- cerned, every golfer in the city would be proud to have him selected as a member of the team. Doubtless his parents would not offer objection, al- though he probably would have to se- cure the consent of the Brown Uni- versity authorities to leave his studies at the Providence institution late in May. Roland will be 19 years old in March, and if selected, will be the same age as was Bob Jones when he | went to England with the Walker Cup | team four years ago. MOHAWK AND MERCURY ELEVENS IN BIG CLASH ERCURY foot ballers make their final bid to retain the city sand- lot championship which they won in 1924 this afternoon at American League Park when they play their annual game with M the Mohawks. The Indian eleven is undefeated and already has taken the measure of the Apache Club, the third organization considered in the running for the unlimited title. As the Mercurys were defeated by the Apaches carly in the season, a defeat or even a tie game today will put them among the also-rans. Although getting off to a bad start, the Mercury combination seemed to be hitting its stride last Sunday, when it trimmed the Waverlys, who had recently won from the reorganized Knickerbockers. The game today starts at 3 o'clock. Starting line-ups have been an- nounced as follows: Positions. Mercury. Lo . King Cronin. .

The clash was a replay of a tie contest played the week previous and gives Jeflerson a scason record of five victories and one deadlock game. Only one point was scored against the champions during the series ual junior high school soccer series Powell getting a single tally in the first meeting of the two teams. The winning squad, coached by G. J. Miller, includes the following play- ers: Capt. Alvin Gheens, Clifton Riley, Joseph DiNinna, Isador Abramovitz, Amelio Aguilino, Earl Yates. Guy leeoter, Herman Oscar, Benedict Lom- bardi, Fred D'Amrosia, Harry Schaef- James Burroughs, Benjamin Kutz- “rank Varron, William Mockabee and Melvin rause. Jefferson entered the seriés as a dark horse, but ran rough-shod over the flve other teams in the league. The Columbia team, which won the title last season, ended in a third-place tie with Hine, while Langley comes in for runnerup honors. The Jefferson booters scored a total of 12 points. Coaches of the six junior schools ire enthusiastic over the improvement made during the second series and are icud In their praise of Walter Rhine. hart, Columbia student, who helped engineer the series. The work of several players from each of the teams stood out as worthy of honorable mention. Jefferson's out- standing performers were Capt. CGheens, Aquilino, Lombardi, Banagan and Riley. Langley's lenders iwere I"lanagan, Topham, Washington and Finn. Capt. Gross, Jackson, Lewis, Smith and_Edelblut were the out- “tending players on the Columbla eleven, while Hine's leader was Finch- am.

It was won by Leo Diegel of Great Neck, Long Island, with Joe Turnesa of the Fairview Club of New York second. It is sald by its sponsors to be a going organization, with a member- ship of nearly two score professionals in the -States covered by the other golf body. Construction of a pair of deep traps on the north and south sides of the second putting green at the Wash- ington Golf and Country Club has had the effect of speeding up play ot busy days to a remarkable degree, ac- cording to club officlals. Before the traps were put in, players frequently drove balls down the steep banks of the hill on which the green is located and then played across and back down the hlll, resulting in a general tie-up of all following matches on the sec- ond tee. This situation now has been largely done away with, as & ball off the line finds a trap and does not go down to the base of the hill. Dr. J. T. McClenahan, chairman of. the greens committee at the Wash. | ington Club, is considering construc- tion of a bridge across a valley from a point near the elghth green to the ninth tee, avoiding a hill that is slippery in muddy weather and hard to climb in any weather. Fred McLeod, Columbia’s profes. sional and greenkeeper, is not to go South this Winter. McLeod was with Jim Barnes at mple Terrace last Winter, returning to Washington late in March. Only recently named green- Xkeeper at Columbia, McLeod mapped out a schedule of extensive improvements on the golf course which will keep him busy most of the Winter.

More than a dozen members of the Washington Golf and Country Club are at the Princess Anne Country Club at Virginia Beach, Va., spending a few days playing goif on the mod- ern layout of the course by the ocean near Norfolk. Roland R. MacKenzie, Middle At- lantic champion and medalist in the 1825 amateur championship, will be home about December 18 to remain over the holidays for the first extend- ed vacation he has had since he left ‘Washington for Brown University late in_September.

Haas, who has had four years' ex- perience, back in 1917, as tutor of basket ball at the Kendall Green School, at which time he had two players, Rockwell and Wenger, select- ed for the first All-South-Atlantic quint, received quite an ovation when he addressed the students last night at dinner. . Haas is one of the most prominent basket ball officials, for both men and women, in the District, and is taking charge with the understanding that his job will in now way interfere with his officiating. He still retains his eye for the basket, as the other night he shot 52 tries from the 15-foot mark, then turning his back to the basket, shot 7 out of 10, heeling the same mark, back over his head.

The total scorings were: Central, 488; Maryland freshmen, 487. These scores, while not unusual in themselves, are very good considering the fact that not one girl on Central team had ever shot'in a match before and only two of the Marylanders had h:d previous experience. C Elizabeth Corkins of Maryland was the - high point scorer. She was shooting in her first match. The match was fired in prone posi- tion entirely. Regulation decimal tar- gets were used. J. W. Crockett " |coached the Centralites. Sergt. Hen- drick coached the Old Liners. Both expressed themselves as being much impressed by the initial performance of their markswomen and by the gen- eral spirit of good sportsmanship which prevaliled. Arrangements were considered for a return encounter, to be staged at the Central. Central's ffve high scores which won the contest were: Betty Rice, 99; Frances Ehlers, 99; Elizabeth Pile, 87; Katherine Todd, 97, and Roberta Wright, 96. A “Goo,” the high school lassies’ bull terrier mascot, was unable to be pres- ent as his extreme vouth made the trip inadvisable. The interhigh school series does hot begin until March. Central plans sev- eral more preliminary matches in Jan- uary and February. Tn'addition to the sécond Maryland-affdir, the squad will shoot two postal matches with out-of- town high schools and one members’ match in January, under the auspices of the National Rifle Association. Two medals are offered in this latter match. One will be presented the veteran markswoman making the highest score and the other will be awarded the girl shooting for the first time this year who scores the highest. - The- boys' rifle squad at the Uni- versity of Maryland earned sweet re- venge for their defeat last year at the hands of the co-ed varsity squad. They beat their fair rivals by 1 point in a shoulder-to-shoulder contest on the school range. They collected a total of 496 points to the girls’ 495. Betty Amos and Thomas Lyons each turned in perfect scores. The girls were allowed the best five Julia Behring and Alma Essex were tied with 98 for fifth place.
