CHICK EVANS SEES FLAW IN AMATEUR Tourr;ey Interest Lost When Aces Are Eliminated in Preliminary Play. HE Evans idea has considerable merit. For example, this year at Chicago there were four 'former champions in the field after the sec-| tional qualification test. Only one of | | them survived the qualification rounds | at the championship itself. That one | was Prancis Ouimet, who won the tour- | ney again after a lapse of 17 years. | Evans, Max Marston and Harrison R.| | Johnston, all former champions, all failed to qualify. Marston and John- ston never had a chance after the first day, and Evans, needing a 5 on the | last hole to tie for last place, three putted the green and took a 6, which left him one stroke out.

The West Coast had four starts against the Midwest and the East, and the final answer was a clean-up against Minnesota, Notre Dame, Dartmouth and New York University. And three of these games were played on hostile fields. This just about closes out any debate for the year. Some one might just as well hand it to that Georgia squad for being ready for Yale early in October and reaching December 1 with only one defeat. And Georgia finished with a rush, with a fellow named Smith still pretty active in his various specialties. Georgla has had to play one of the hardest schedules of the year and her campaign still has a game left against Southern California at Los Angeles.

HICAGO, December 2—Possi- bility that Great Britain may declare a moratorium on the biennial Walker Cup matches, that are due to be played in is country next September, will be highly disappointing to Americans.
