SPORTS. DECIOE UPON NEW TYPE OF AFFAIRS To. Pair With Amateurs and Woman Players in Next Two Tourneys. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. OLF professionals about Balti- more and Washington are get- ting tired of this throat-cut- ting business. Dissatisfied with competition among them- selves for sweepstakes prizes which sel- dom go outside of a small group of men, they have decided to bring in the ama- teur golfers of the various clubs. In fact, they have gone even a step fur- ther along the road toward abolishment of sweepstakes play among themselves by announcing & competition in which the pros will &k with woman partners. For some time there has been a quiet muttering among some of the contest: ants in the sweepstakes tournaments of the Middle Atlantic Professional Golf- ers’ Association against the continuity of the events held every two weeks| g, during the season. “Why should I subscribe $5 or more,” some of the professionals say, “to help along the other gent. I know I can't win, and, .in fact, those who do win come from a group of three or four. It's a fine thing to be altruistic about these matters, but a fellow has to look gfl s out for himself.” With some inkling of this attitude among the younger men before it, the professional association decided to reach out among other classes of play- | ers, remove the wraps from the bank roll and give the younger lads a chance. So they have listed for next Monday | an amateur-professional event to be played over the course of the Suburban Country Club of Baltimore, where Ralph Beach, erstwhile caddle at the Wi Golf and Country Club, holds down the professional berth. And they have gone even further by billing 2 mixed foursome competition at the Columbia Country Club on May 6. Now in_that tournament at the Suburban Club it may happen that one of the pros who plays exceptionally well may also draw an amateur who | plays well, but that is unlikely. It may also happen that one of the younger professionals, who has not been in the money, may draw an amateur who will pull him through. It may happen, also, in the mixed foursome event at Colum- bis that one of the pros, who has not been able to get in the money in the sweepstakes event, may draw a woman partner who will llghnld her end of the show, and that tl been getting away with the dough in the sweepstakes will not have such/ gy skillful partners. 1f either or both of these things hap- good thing for the assoclation and the younger profes-| sionals, for they claim the sweepstakes | events are in more or less of a stalemate. ‘That event at Col 1 on June 3, for which Sandy Armour offered to put upnuxhprmoflloo.hubeenwrned into & IW&NL‘FB“ ug:‘_k and Armour withdrawn offer. huun J. M. Haynes of Columbia, one of the outstanding golfers of the mid- other cities and hopes that e match with women from an mumza S tidewater sec ;:.held Within s month. This match | was scheduled to have been played llsl; Fall, but was postponed to the present | season at the request of the woman golfers of the Norfolk sector. ‘The N(Ir-l folk women will be led by Mrs. Connie | Sullivan. s e imated ‘women's Dorothy ite golf affairs about Washington for the past three years, is now s young ma- iron. A few days ago she was married | to H. T. Nicholson and is now on her honeymoon. Mrs. Nicholson will prob- ably continue her active part in the | Jocal women's golf events and surely | will defend her woman's District cham- | plonship in June. The Bannockburn tourney tomorrow will open with a six- Thole qualifying round, to be followed by nine-hole match play rounds. Nearly half the Georgetown golfers who are to play today in the tryouts for the Hoya golf team practioed yesterday in the severe wind, which swept the Con, course. All the prospec- tive members of the team are to play 36 holes, from which the six members and two substitutes will be chosen. Maurice J. McCarthy heads the Hilltop golfers, as captain and holder of the national intercollegiate cham- pionship. Others almost certain to T e e oamgun. Norsert Beger and Marl " Weisler, another youthful star, has been playing well, as have Robert Manning and John Foley. In addition to these, 10 more lads are out for the team. Dr. J. R. De Farges of Columbia won the first event of the season held by the Washington Dental Golf Assocla- tion at Congressionsl, turning in a card of 92—15—177. Second’ place went to Dr. H. P. Cobey, who had 96—17—79. Dr. W. R. McLister won third place with 90—9—81. REWARD FOR BOWLERS. Harry M. Stull, president of the National Circle Athletic Association, will, on May 6, present gold bowling balls to the following members of the organization for their good work on the drives during the past season: Lambath, Mangum, L.

By the Associated Press. in 80! links and tennis courts of this year is under way. & Helen Wills and Glenna Collett are th> lcading figures in the athletic con- tingent which sailed on the Aquitania last night, with the mere males, such as “Wild Bill” Mehlhorn, Tommy Armour lflld George von Elm, playing the minor roles. To Miss Wills it seems more impor- fant that a youhg American artist is on her way to London for an exhibit of her works in a Bond street gallery than that the queen of the world’s tennis courts is in quest of fresh triumphs at Wim- bledon and in Holland, France and Ger- many. She found considerable cause for apprehension in the coming display, although favorable comments by New York critics have lightened the burden. On the tennis courts she is sure of a good reception, particularly with two ‘Wimbledon victories behind her. ‘The rumors that a presentation at the Court of St. James also will be on the program of Miss Wills visit to Eu- rope was a forbidden subject before she C | sailed, while the all-important ques- tion was “when" in regard to the hand- some diamond engagement ring she is wearing. She refused to ss the first, while her answer to all fiuuthm about the wedding date was “I estly haven't decided.” ‘With no such exciting problems in the background. Miss Collett was concerned only with the one object of her voyage, the result of the British women's cham- plonship on the famous links at St. An- rews. ‘The girl who holds the position in American golf equiyalent to that of Miss Wills in tenniy has not met with the same success in Great Britain and is making this fourth attempt to win the title in a do-or-die manner. In three previous attempts she met with two defeats and once was unable to reach the on account of the labor strike. ‘This time she intends to. concentrate on the one tournament and to it by her pnfvlmuh:;u'uru. Miss tt is booked for the return voyage soon after the championship. i PN CHASTIAN, TRACEY MATCHED.
