- GREAT GALLERIES TOSEE HMPLAY Yanks’ Invasion of England Discussed by Celebrated Golf Writer-Player. (The Star and the North American Newspaver Alliance have engaged Bernard Darwin, celebrated golf writer and him- aelf @ former international plaver for Great Britain, to report the Walker Cup pionships in May and J une. Mr. Darwin has written in advance atory- of the battle.) BY BERNARD DARWIN. ONDON, May 3.—In a short time now the annual inva- sion of Britain by American golfers will have begun. Bobby Jones and his merry men will have landed, bearing the Walker Cup with them, and al-| ready with prophetic ears I hear the hooting of their sirens. In point of interest this should be fully as exciti and interesting a season as any that has gone before. What we in Britain lose on the swings we shall gain on the roundabouts. Last year we had the American Ryder Cup team of professionals and the Ryder Cup match, which incidentally and ntger surprisingly we won. This year ‘we shall not have them, though doubt- less we shall have some very - tinguished professionals, but, by way of oome_nutlun, we have the Walker Cup instead. - : Last year we had Hagen, and Hagen for the fourth time had our open l:hlmpl(IDIthRA ‘This year there is, ac- cording to the cables, to be no Hagen, but there is to be Bobby Jones, and Bobby is the greatest magnet of them all. ‘What will happen at St. Andrews when_the entire crowd—and there are crowds at St. Andrews—wants to see him play his first match in the ama- teur championship, I shudder to think. Everybody is agog already to see him, and people come to me with ‘unutterable pathos in their voices and ask me whether I could not persuade him to go and {)lay on their particular course. Never, I think, has the tremen- dous tide of his popularity surged and roared here as it is going to do this time. Walker Match Is First. The order of events and courses is : Pirst, on May 15 and 16, Walker Cup match on the links of the Royal St. George's Club Next, in the week be- , the amateur cham- plonship will be played at St. Andrews, and last, in the week of June 16, the open championship on the Royal Liver- pool Club's course at Hoylake. There could not be & better choice of courses, both for their actual merits iMusf emmlom.m St. Andrew’s, of’ , needs no intro- duction, and the two English ' links, Hoylake and Sandwich, though mere infants in v standards, are yet of great and well earned celebrity. JAPAN, JUGOSLAVIA, Advance to Second Round in Davis Cup Tennis—Spain Leading Belgium. B round of European zone Davis Cup competition today, elimi- nating Hungary, three matches to none. Today's match, in doubles, saw the Japanese, Takeichi Harada and Tamid Abe, easily win from Baron von Kehrl- ing and Carl Aschner, 6—2, 6—2, 3—86, 6—4. Japan won both of the opening singles matches yesterday and its victory in the doubles automatically clinched the series. ANTWERP, Belglum, May, 3 (P).— Spain took a two-to-one lead over Bel- gium in their first-round Davis Cup tennis tie today, winning the doubles. E. Maler and Patrica of Spain defeated the Belgians, A. Ewbank and L. De Borman, 6—1, 4—6, 1—6, 8—6, 6—3. The first two singles matches yester- day were evenly divided.

HARTIG IS HONORED FOR WAR BRAVERY Victoria Cross Is Awarded Army, Navy and Marine Corps Club Golf Pro. F Marine Corps Country Club, has been notified by the War De- partment, for the British government, that he is shortly to receive the coveted Victoria Cross, highest award for bravery in war within the power of Britain to confer. The strange part of the award is that Hartig, although he suffers from leg wounds received in action in France in 1918, and is permanently disabled as a result of explosive bullets from a Ger- man machine gun which tore through his left leg, has not been advised of the circumstances of the particular act of bravery which it to be recognized. Nor has the British government advised the popular Army, Navy and Marine RANK C. HARTIG, professional golfer at the Army, Navy and FRANK C. !lA,lTlfl. Corps Club professional of the date of the award, which probably will be made by the British Ambassador at the em- bassy within a few weeks. Hartig, who already has the Dis- tinguished Service Cross, presented by the United States Government, and the French Croix de Guerre, with palms, was reticent when informed of the im- pel award, and even when told that news of it had come from the War De- partment insisted that he does not re- call any isolated incident for which it Hartig today is one of the best of the professional golfers about the Capi- tal and a man esteemed as much for his character as his ability on the iinks. His left leg is permanently disabled, ?nd hxe has adapted his golf style to avor it. Twice Wounded in Action. Twice wounded in action, serving in a number of major offensives and in the British army as an American ob- server around the hot corners at Albert, Amiens, Ypres and Loss, ig _was Troop in the hot fighting that marked I.gf continued German offensives of 7. He went to France as a second lieu- tenant in the American Army and was assigned to the London unit as an ob- server for the American forces, dra ing American pay, later being trans- ferred to the American Army as a first lieutenant in the 82d Division. He served with the American forces in the Toul sector and in the Meuse-Argonne fight, which saw some of the bitlerest fighting of the war. His first wound he modestly describes as a scratch from a bursting shell, which put him in the hospital for *‘a couple of months,” and his second wound must have been a real one, for he was caught in a ma- chine gun nest in front of Grand Pre, and his leg was shattered by explosive bullets. He lay in a hospital for many weary months and at last came out with a permanently stiff left leg. Hartig was born in Valley Forge, Ga., and was a noted athlete at Georgia Tech. He took up golf after the war as a means of living outdoors. No pro- fessional about Washington is higher in the esteem of the members of his club than is this youthful holder of the highest award Britain can bestow for bravery in war. Nowadays the only fights he engages in are on the more peaceful battlefield of the golf course over in the hills of Arlington County, where he plays golf occaslonally with his war-time division commander, Gen. Charles D. Rhodes. o V. M. I. WINS TIGHT MEET FROM V. P. 1., 64 TO 62 LEXINGTON, Va., May 3—V. M. I divided a track and fleld double-header with V. P.

The tourney is one of the outstanding events of the year at Columbia and is annually made the occasion for a gathe: of two or three hundred members bent on fun, with the quality of golf a secordary consideration. Herbert T. Shannon, president of the club, also heads the Boasters’ Club, which this year is play- ing host to the entire club membership.

They don't come every day, and when they do come they are worth talking about, for par is hard to get, 1 under par is doubly hard and 2 under par is just about the ultimate in scoring. Yet & | Columbia golfer made two eagles in & single round of the course last week. and there were a brace of eagles scored in the qualifying round of the ‘Wash- ington Gkol( and €ountry Club tourney st 3 L“E. wflu Eynon, jr., used to be consid- ered one of Washington's finest ama- teur golfers. He still is, but he has abandoned tournament competition and nowadays plays golf only in casual com- petition. It was he who scored the brace of eagles at Columbia last week and Hugh H. Saum was the gent who bought them. Now when you get a birdie 4 on & par 5 hole naturally you expect to win it, and you certainly do not expect to lose it. Yet Saum made a birdie 4 on the fifth hole at Columbia and lost it to Eynon's eagle 3. And at the twelfth hole the crown- ing touch of sorrow came to Saum, for here he put his second shot on the green at this 500-yard hole and watched chip in his :l'.flrd shot for his second of the day. Burt ;“(x)enrnztt holed his mashie sec- ond shot for an eagle 2 on the 374-yard sixth hole at Washington in the medal o o e Tt on e o of Manor on P o 385-yard hole—where he holed a pitch shot for an eagle. Wesely went further than Garnett, for he holed a lengthy putt on the four- teenth—a short hole—for his second consecutive deuce. EGULARLY each Sunday morning R. G.

On the fourth hole in the qualifying round W. R. McCallum climbed a tree to play his ball, and George T. Howard put his ball in a cedar tree on the fifteenth. ‘The question has been asked: “If a player whose ball hangs in a tree is rather careless in climbing the tree, and in shaking the tree the ball becomes ed and falls to the ground, is a penalty stroke incurred?” In our judgment it would be a rub of the green, and inasmuch as the player has not taken his stance for a stroke, he ‘cannot be said to have caused the ball to move. Then there l& thedmle w:léh %ejmlt"l!n the phm bend a growing object ukh1 stance. If he bends a tree limb in climbing the tree, has he infringed the rule? Or has he incurred a penalty stroke if after taking his position in the tree to strike the ball, the pellet moves? There are all sort of angles to this tree golf.

IMLICO, May 3.—Flimsy, & 3~ year-old brown filly by Broom- stick-Yankee Mald, carried the light blue and brown topped Harry Payne Whitney silks to victory | here today in the twelfth running of | the Pimlico Oaks, one of the two stakes presented before a crowd estimatted at more than 30,000. Flimsy not only won, but set a new time mark for the Maryland Jockey Club stake by going over the mile and 30-yard route in 1:45, clipping four- fifths of a second from the old mark hung up in 1926 by Rapture, another ‘Whitney horse. The New York sports- man’s silks now have been borne four ?mn to triumph in this attractive fix- ure. The race was perhaps the best and most exciting witnessed this Spring in Maryland, and saw Ral Parr's Her Grace, Maryland's chief hope for con- quest in this encounter, fighting every inch of the run down the stretch to overcome the Broomstick Miss. Her Grace put up a brilliant race, finishing only a nose behind the win- ner after passing eight horses in the run down the stretch. She appeared to be running best at the end and cer- tainly dissipated all belief that she could not go a distance. * ‘Walter J. Salmon’s Snow Flake, which went to the post a 7-to-2 favorite, fin- ished third and the Montpelier Farm's Lost Agnes, fourth. ‘The highly rated Western fllly, Alci- biades wasn’t a serious contender at any Eolm and finished fifth, five lengths ack of Lost Agnes. Trainer Trueman, while expressing disappointmefit after the race, said that he would send Her Grace after the $50,000 Preakness to be run next PFri- day, and with a different rider up, he was confident Ral Parr's filly would prove that she is the best in her divi- sion shown this year.
