HICAGO, June 6.—The big parade of America’s college track stars invades Stagg Field at the University of Chicago today for qualifying tests in the ninth annual renewal of the National Col-| legiate Athletic Association’s champion- ships. To reduce the fields for the finals tomorrow, & long list of trials was scheduled—meaning that many aspir- ants for national titles by tonight would be reduced to the status of spectators Ten defending champlons, three of them record-holders, were back to try for more honors. The record-holders were Bimpson, in the century; Harlow Rothert of Stanford, in the shotput, and Tommy Warne of Northwestern, who tied last year with Paul Edmonds at a record height, in the pole vault. Possibilities for a world record per- formance in the mile run were dimmed by the necessity of running the race in four sections. The fleld was so large that it was decided to split it up, which left it to chance that such stars as Hill of Oregon, Kiser of Washington, Swarts of Western State Teachers', Kalamazoo, Mich., and Jack Walter of Marquette, might be drawn in the same section and create proper competition for a record attempt. Ed Hamm of Georgia Tech appeared to have the broad jump &relty much to himself, following reports last night that Edward Gordon of Iowa, the Big Ten's best, had been cut from the Hawkeye squad. It was said Gordon had been dropped by Coach George | wi Bresnahan as & disciplinary measure. With the Negro star, who was a mem- ber of the 1928 American Olympic of competition, Iowa's be reduced by the loss battle, woul pacing high in the team | THE 10 Athletes Defending Titles In National Collegiate Games| of points in the broad jump, and also possibly in_the high jump.

Howard First in Qualifying| Round of Midatlantic De- spite Lame Back. | | BY W. R. McCALLUM. ICHMOND, Va., June §.— Four Washington golfers played in the first flight of the Middle Atlantic Golf Association championship today, with two of them meeting in the first round of the title chase over | the James River course of the Country Club of Virginia. Al-; though Harry G. Pitt of the Manor Club was two strokes be- hind the medalist, he was listed | as one of the favorites to win the tourney. Had Pitt finished nearly as well as} Jack Howard of Richmond did to win! the medal yesterday, he would today be installed as the man to beat B, Warren Corkran of Baltimore for the cham- pionship. As it was, Pitt missed shots on the sixteenth and eighteenth holes which would have placed him in a tie for the medal. Howard, who is the city lame back, suffered in an automobile accident two weeks ago, and scored 73 just the same., He finished with three birdies in a row to win the medal from Pitt, whose 75 had been turned in an hour before. Pitt met Roger Peacock of Indian Spring today in a struggle that was expected to produce some of the best golf of the tourney. In other first- flight matches B. Warren Corkran, the defending title holder, met W. R. Mec- Callum of Washington, and John C. Shorey of Bannockburn gllycd Mal- colm F. Jones of Richmond. Jones won a place in the first flight in a four-man play-off in which Wil- liam J. Cox of Beaverdam missed a 16- AdDI11L LUN, inch putt on the second extra hole to win a place. Cox tied at 82 for one place in the first flight. McCallum was 79, Peacock wes 80 and Shorey was 79. The team plonship was won by the Country Club of Virginia team, which scored 407 for the event. Washington players in the second flight were cleorgc F. Miller of Manor, who had 87 in the medal round; J. M. Belshe of Argyle, who also had 87, and Curtiss and Cox, who met in the first round teday. In th. third flight were Thomas S. Pitt of Argyle, at 87, and in the fourth lardiner P. Orme of Colum- bia, who had 92, and E. B. Baxter of Manor, who had 97. Withdrawals in- cluded Luther Florine of Bannackburn and A. S. M. Frailey of Chevy Chase. Both Florine and Frailey complained of too many put MRS. NORMENT IN FINAL OF TENNIS TOURNAMENT Mrs, C. P.

The seores were 8—1, 6—0. Mrs. C. C. Glover defeated Laura Proohnik by the same score in a quar- ter-final match. In the men's doubles H. B. Rowan and Capt. Orain defeated Maj.

Stances for the chip differ in golf. Nearly every star plays it like the putt. In consequence, when it comes to stances there 1s a wide range. ‘Willie Macfarlane gets his feet well together, weight on left, and left foot back, thus gaining an open ad- dress. Farrell's stance is much the same. Bobby Jones has his heels right together for the shot. But Roger Wethered, his British amateur rival, spreads his legs a great deal, some- what like Hagen. So it goes. The reason for these differences is that a stance that feels comfertable for you does not necessarily feel comfortable for another. Hagen, &ones, Travers and Travis, the four greatest putters in American golf this century, varied as to stance and grip. But all putted in much the same manner, The main thing in K:ur stance for a chip is to feel lanced and comfortable. A new illustrated leaflet on “Long Iron Shots” has bheen prepared by Sol Metsger. Write for it. Address 8ol Metager, in care of this paper, and inclose a self-addressed stamped envelope. (Copy! 930.)
