I wish some of our so-called financial aristrocracy in the United States could take a leaf out of his book. He was out watching | the play at Sunningdale, and he fol- | Jowed me five holes; walked along with | me, and at the proper time asked me | mbout certain shots, and how I played them, and so on—he’s a very keen stu- dent of golf.” J I asked George why. in his opinion, the prince selected him to observe. George blushed. ‘Oh, 1 guess he figured he and I are built something alike,” he replied. “You eee. neither of us is what you might | call big and powerful. I'm a little taller than the prince, but we are constructed | pretty much along the same lines.” | b | HERE was one hole, for example. | “Remember that eleventh, on the ‘Old_Course’ at Sunningdale?” George inquired. “Well, it's a very short two-shotter; a drive and & chip, 4f you can hit a big one to the right #pot.

It was an hour later that I began to realize I had been coaching the Prince of Wales and telling him how I played golf, just as if he had been some American kid who was walking around with me on the old home course. ‘Then I could feel my ears getting red, plenty. t that I couldn't be terribly embarrassed.

DUESSELDORF, Germany, July 3.— America’s five track and fleld ambas- | sadors to Europe have made good in | their first appearance against foreign | competition and today were ready for their second test at Duesseldorf, Ger- many. The unexpected failure of Ed Hamm, Georgia Tech's broad jumper, to win prevented the Americans from making a clean sweep. Hamm failed by one- half inch to defeat Dobermann of Ger- many, who leaped 7.22 meters, or 23| feet 811-64 inches. The Georgian cleared 7.21 meters, or 23 feet 725-32 inches. First places went to George Bull- winkle, crack half-miler of the College of the City of New York; Tom Warne, Northwestern's premier pole vaulter; Steve Anderson, Washington's Great hurdler; Pete Bowen, Pittsburgh's star quarter-miler, and the 400-meter relay team. Bullwinkle covered the 800 meters in | the god time of 1:52:8 to defeat Danz | and Sahm of Germany.

EW YORK, July 3.—Flushed with & stirring welcome celebrating his dual victory abroad, Bobby Jones today turned his face Westward seeking new golf worlds to conquer, The modest lawyer and bank director of Atlanta, Ga. stepped off the liner Europa yesterday to be accorded a re- ception befitting the first American to win both the British amateur and open championships. Above the din of shrieking sirens, thousands Bobby managed to say that he had no plans for retirement from competitive golf: that lL.e had given no championships this year, which include | the American open and amateur yet to be played; that he did not leave his bag of famous clubs behind in England, and | that luck played a large part in hu‘ triumphs at St. Andrews and Hoylake. Ma and Pa There. k In the vanguard of welcomers who met the liner down the bay were about | 500 fellow townsmen who journeyed | and escort him proudly up Broadway in | a shower of paper and receive New | York's officlal welcome from Mayor Walker. First to embrace him when | he stepped aboard the city boat Macomb | were his father and mother. . The celebration ended with a dinner at the Vanderbilt, after which Bobby prepared to go to Minneapolis today to play in the national open tournament which begins next Thursday. Carrying a motion picture camera. Jones debarked from the Europa and said he “never felt better.” Luck Was With Him. “Even when you were playing?” he was asked, for it is known that the nervous strain in matches sometimes upsets him. “Oh, then, maybe I was a little less than 100 per cent,” he answered. “But, on the whole, I could not have been better physically.” He cgrrobonted the statement of his close friend, O. B. Keeler, who said he did not play up to his usual form in the competition abroad. “That’s right,” Jones agreed. ut I was lucky and, after all, that's more important sometimes than playing well.” Starts West Today. Bobby spent today resting at his hotel and preparing to start early tas after- | noon for Minneapolis and the American open tournament on the Broadway Lim- ited. ited. His mother and father will accom- | pany him, but his wife will return to| Atlanta and the Jones children, whom she has not seen since she and Bobby sailed for England. No demonstration was planned at the train when Bobby departs. He was said to prefer to leave quietly. He and his T seems to be quite the thing these | days to remain in town over the holidays and we don't know but what golfers have the right ides, what with crowded motor roads and crowded resorts.

Luck, in the form of paper slips in a hat, had much to do with the award- ing of that privilege. For a committee at Interlachen, to settle the matter, put the names of the 16 best caddies in & hat—and pulled the slips of paper out one by one.

Robinson this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock against Maj. Robert C. Van Vliet, jr.,, and Maj. T. D. Finley in the doubles final. The latter pair are the defending champions. In the semi-finals yesterday Lieut. Hedekin and Lieut, Robinson defeated Lieut. Millard Lewis and Lieut. E. 8. Mathews, 6—3, 6—4, 6—2 and Maj. Van Vliet and Maj. Finley vanquished Maj. J. H.

In the deciding set Lieut, Hedekin was leading 5 games to 4 and 40-30. His vital next shot, however, was just out. ‘Then Lieut. Strahan rallied to even the game count at 5-all. After Lieut.

SPORTS. AMERICANS RULING WINBLEDON TENNS Tilden Meets Allison, Mrs. Moody Plays Miss Ryan in Singles Finals. By the Associated Press. IMBLEDON, England, July 3. ~— With an all-America final assured in the men and ranking tennis stars went about today narrowing the doubles flields down to the semi-final rounds. Much of the interest centered in the appearance of Big Bill Tilden, who yes- terday eliminated the French ace, Bo- rotra, in the men’s doubles with his Dutch partner, Hans Timmer. Tilden and Timmer meet the great French combination of Henri Cochet and Jacques Brugnon in a quarter-final match. In another match, in the same round, J. C. Gregory and 1. G. Collins of Englapd, who reached the final last year, oppose another French team com- posed of Jean Borotra and the youthful Christian Boussus. ‘The American womens team of Edith Cross and Sarah Palfrey meet the pow- erful English pair of Mrs. Whittingstall, the former Eileen Bennett, and Betty Nuthall, with the winners meeting Mrs, Helen Wills Moody and Elizabeth Ryan in a semi-final match later in the day. Tilden Is Sent Limit. Tilden made a comeback and did it gloriously. He defeated Borotra in an epic five-set struggle, 0—6, 6—4, 4—6, 6—0, 7—5, and for the first time in nine years finds his way to the Wim- bledon championship fairly clear. It is clear except for Wilmer Alll- son, Cochet’s 25-year-old conqueror, who won his way into an all-America final by overcoming his teammate, Johnny Doeg, in another five-get affair. With long evening shadows falling on the center court the two youngsters | fought it out until Allison finally had worn down his rival. The scores were 6—3, 4—6, 8—6, 3—6, 7—5. German Girl Hurts Ankle. In the women's singles it also was an all-America sweep, Mrs, Helen Wills Moody did the expected thing by defeating Mme. Rene Mathieu of France, 6—3, 6—2, and did it with little trouble. It was the other semi- final match, however, which produced sensations. Miss Ryan gave one of the greatest exhibitions of pluck ever seen at Wim- bledon to defeat Fraulein Aussem, de- spite the fact that the German girl was playing one of the most brilliant games of her career. The two fought it out magnificently beneath a broiling sun until, with the games 4-all in the third, the German girl slipped when trying for a far shot. She got up gamely, limped to the base- line to resume her service and then toppled over 0’5‘0‘ dead faint before the rowd of 20,000. 3 Nurses and_stretcher-bearers had to carry her off, and it later was an- nounced that she had sprained her ankle so badly she could not go on. The match thus went to Miss Ryan 6—32, 0—6, 4—4, default. C.C.Pyle Has Embarked ' on Sea-Fishing Cruise. REQUENTLY it has been asked what has become of C. C. Pyle, celebrated promoter of Red Grange, professional tennis and creator of the lamented Bunion Derby. Those who have been ap- prehensive of another transconti- nental foot race may be gratified to learn that the one-time Wheaton, T, theater-operator has undertaken a deep-sea fishing and hunting cruise to the tropical islands off the West Coast of Mexico. Pyle has chartered a 115-foot sail and motor yacht for the venture, which will take him away from the hot and dusty trails of the Bunion Derby caravan. Even C. C. by now must have experienced the desire for relaxation after a tempestuous career as a big-time promoter. Yet his flair for the unusual remains.

SPORT LEADER Former Notre Dame Athlete Replaces McAuliffe, Who Resigns Post. A wart is now director of athletics and head foot ball coach at Catholic University. Rasignation of Jaek McAuliffe, who came to C. U. in 1925, and Bergman's appointment as his successor, have just been announced by officials of the Brookland institution. McAuliffe’'s resignation was & sur- prise, as he had not intimated he would take such a step. No reason was given for his resignation in the announcement by university officials. He is the third member of the C. U. coaching corps to resign within the past few months. Fred Rice, veteran basket ball coach, and Ted Mitchell, boxing instructor, previously had quit their posts. Bergman not only was & foot ball luminary as quarter and halfback for Notre Dame from 1914 to 1017, but was a base ball and track performer of worth. Prior to entering the South Bend institution he shone in athletics for Notre Dame Prep. After his graduation from Notre Dame Bergman served 26 months in the World War in the Field Artillery and Air Bervice. Later he was assistant foot ball and track coach at Notre Dame after which he was athletic director and all-around coach at New Mexico A. and M. College. Subsequently Berg- man became backfleld coach at the University of Minnesota. He also was head base ball coach st this institution. ét t:] this position he leaves to come to ‘Bergman, whose contract, 1t was an- nounced, is for three years, uses the Knute Rockne system of grid coaching.

These are important contests. ‘The New York club is scheduled to play five contests with the Athletics and four with Washington. These three clubs are s0 close that every game they pllny ‘with each other is “a cruclal strug- gle.” If any of the three clubs attain a real advantage in the games to come the others are going to be in a very risky situation. ’ In the National League it still is wholly possible for any of the first six clubs to win the flag, but the probabili- ties are that the race will continue to l’)(e b:tween Chicago, Brooklyn and New or! ‘The Yankees are not going to be in such good shape if Babe Ruth's injury slows him up or_keeps him out of any of the games. I have seen the Babe play when his big frame was practically wrapped in surgeon’s plaster from head to heel, but a fingernail ripped off may be more troublesome than a cracked rib or a sprained ankle, It may prevent Ruth from gripping his bat in the usual manner, and, being on his left hand, it also may affect his throwing and even his flelding. ‘The only conclusion to be drawn is RTHUR J. BERGMAN, former Notre Dame three-sport stal- or pad the barrier. The Yanks can't afford to have Ruth crippled when he is socking the ball at his present gait. NOTHER ancient player appears te be doing fairly well. William T. Tilden is once more in a final match at Wimbledon. Boratra fought with all the vigor and fire for which he is noted, but he couldn't turn back the old champion. The Basque had plenty of ht“i;t’ but he didn't quite have the stuff. Now Wilmer Allison alone stands be- tween Big Bill and another title. Al- lison is some barrier to hurdle. The Texan also had a hard match in win- ning from Johnny Doeg, but he is younger than Tilden and may re- cuperate a bit faster. But you can bet that the old master will bring to play all the cunning and skill he has acquired through the years. He knows Allison's game and he will m:nke things as tough as possible for If Allison should beat Tilden, he cer- tainly will establish himself as one of the great players of the game.

CHICAGO, July 3.—Tennis as played in Sunny Texas, particularly in Austin, dominated the tussle for the Western men's singles champlonships today on the hard courts at River Forest, As the title fight entered the quarter- final bracket three Austin stars were very much in the running and gol strong. They were Karl Kunnth“m Joe Bill Bralley, junior stars, and Bruce Barnes, one of the sturdiest players in the West. None of them had much difficulty reaching the round. One of them was certain to be elimi- nated in the quarter-finals, however, as the luck of the draw aligned Barnes and Kamrath against each other. ’ Chicago ranked second to Austin in placing two of its stars, George Jen- nings and Charles Lejeck, in the quar- ter-finals, Des Moines, Towa, had an- other in Harris Coggeshall, while the other two places in the bracket were up for decision today.
