This time they will have at least one consideration never before given contestants in a marathon—music all along the route. The band mounted on a truck will keep on the move after having escorted the winner to the fin- ish line. One of the bands will be stationed at the milestone, where many thousands are likely to congregate. Here at the last race the Independent Boys' Band entertained and their performance was enjoyed, particularly while spectators awaited the first finishers.

New Open Golf Threat. * 13 LIFE’'S DARKEST MOMENT g —By WEBSTER * YOUTH HAS STRON ALL-AROUND GAME {Lengthy With Woods, Master With Irons—Dawson May Set Amateur Pace. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, May 23.—Johnny Revolta, the tousled-haired youngster from Menomi- nee, Mich., is about the | only brand-new threat for the' United States open golf cham- pionship to be found among the, 130 professionals and 21 amateurs who will report for play at North Shore Country Club on June 8. A large number of newcomers quali- fied for the National Open in the sec- tional tests, but it is unlikely you will- be hearing much about them when the’ championship is completed. Revolta has been quite a golfer for several seasons, but did not hit the Public eye to any extent until last Win. ter, when he finished among the lead- lers in several Florida tournaments. The youngster has a good golf and backs it with confidence, and that always is needed a winner in a big championship. He turned lose a lot of golf when qualifying in the Chicago. district, but always played well within- himself.

Playing much® the best golf he has exhibited in several™ seasons, the elder Dawson led the Chi- cago fleld with 73—76—149, and it represents fine golf over the two Me- dinah courses, that not only were test- ing, but also very heavy.

Lut! week at Chevy Chase he heard some of his friends remark that they never1 had played the Manor course, so he ar- | ranged a little golf match for them.| Instead of just an informal match, the affair turned out to be a real show, for | Brother Jim turned out the fire de- partment and the village band and put on a real party. | Albert R. MacKenzie, who is making | a grand come-back after a scrious ill- ness which lasted most of the Winter, was the golfing ace of the group. Al- bert played the inside nine in 35 strokes over the éarly half of the competition and in the afternoon, showing all the old-time skill which gained him a Middle Atlantic title and a host of| other link successes, he knocked the| ball around the big course in 76 strokes to cop all the marbles. | Beller had arranged a competition covering both morning and affernoon. He must have sat up late at night| thinking it out, for he had covered | everything that could be covered in a| golf way. In the party were James B. Beller, Albert R. MacKenzie, Hugh H. Saum, H.

But in his sccond round, provided | the young ' man also accomplishes & victory over Hermen Hurdles, he is slated to match shots with the scrappy little John Connolly, the same led who attends Roosevelt High, and who won the Spring event at Rock Creek Park. That metch will be no bed of roses-for Rippey, even thovgh he won the medal and Connolly took 84 in the qualifying round. Harry F. Saunders, one of the best of the public parkers; Lawrence Downey and Harold Bowers all tied for second lace with cards of 78.

ANNAPOLIS, Md., May 23.—Naval Academy athletic teams are making epecial preparations for, the three con- tests in. which they will be opposed by the Military Academy next Saturday, and also for other important meetings on the same day. The most important | of the latter is the participation of | academy crews in the Adams Cup race | at Cambridge, Mass., with Harverd and Pennsylvenia as opponents. | The Navy teams in base ball and | field and track will oppose the Army at West Point, while the meeting in lacrosse will take place at Annapolis. They will be the first contests in these sports between the service school teams since 1928, when an interruption in athletic relations took place. The Navy sees an even chance to win in lacrosse and base ball, while the Army has an edge as to field and track. The possible return of Johnny Waybright, sprinter, who has been on the injured list, may help the Navy chances. Of the five lacrosse games played ‘betwecn the service teams, the Navy | has won four and one, in 1928, was | te, 4 to 4. The Army has a good mar- gin in bzs> ball and track.
