ATLANTIC GOLFERS BEATEN Bobby Jones, Adair Prescott and Hickey Go Down in Western Tour- ney—Ouimet Up With Leaders. Midlothian Country Club, Blue Island, 111, July 11.—Atlanta’s golfing prodigies were totally eclipsed, Jesse Guilford was carried to the twenty- second hole before he emerged un- scathed. Francis Ouimet and John G. Anderson continuéd successful and Edwards brothers remained install- ed at the head of the contingent in the day’'s golf happenings connected with the Western Golf Association amateur champiohip tournament. Every one of the Atlanta contingent of young stars was eliminated in the first round match play yesterday after all had succeeded in the second eighteen holes of the qualifying round this morning. Bobby Jones, who re- cently won the Southern champion- ship and still is considered a golfing marvel, found the skill of Ned Saw- yer too much to overcome. Sawyer shoved Bobby into the also rans by a margin of 3 and 1. Perry Adair, another Atlanta boy of sterling golf repute, fell before the English entry, J. S. Worthington of Sunningdale and by a margin of 2 and 1. Donald Edwards, who was the medalist with 160 for his thirty-six holes, continued his exceptional dis- play long enough to get rid of the third Atlanta boy, Tom Prescott. Ed- wards won by 3 and 1. Richard Hick- ey, the last hope of Atlanta, bowed before E. H. Bankhard, a Midlothian expert by 2 and 1. PLAYGROUNDS BASEBALL Burritt Downs Old Rival From Bart- lett in First Clash of Season—Farly Lead Helps East Down Smith. The opening games in the play- grounds baseball league were staged yesterday afternoon, the Burritt con- quering the Bartlett, score 14 to 9 and the East downed the Smith, score 6 to 4. In the Burritt-Bartlett game, the victors piled up six runs in the second stanza, hitting Zysko hard and timely. A fine batting spurt in the opening pro- duced a quintet of tallies for the East aggregation, and the lead was main- tained throughout the game. Le Mar pitched a good game for the winners. The score by innings of both games are as follows: Burritt vs. Bartlett. Burritt . 262001030 Bartlett " 000122211—9 4 5 Battert Burritt: Gernesky, Smith Bartlett: Zysko, Rielly; umplre, Mar- .

Ruppert Offers Lec Magee for Speedy Cuban Outficlder—Caldwell Is Slated for Trade. $t. Louis, Mo., July 11 shakeup of the Yankees i place within the next twq da; terday Jacob Ruppert and Bill van offered Outfielder Lec Magee to the St. Louis Browns for Armando Marsans, the Cuban outfielder, and Pitcher Ray Caldwell to the same club for Second Baseman Pratt. Fielder Jones already has turned down the Caldwell proposition, but the two clubs are trying to complete the Magee-Marsans swap. The leading obstacle is Magee's “‘war-time" salary. When the Yankees paid over $22,500 to Harry Sinclair for Magee's release Magee was still under the contract by which he was signed to manage the Brooklyn Federals in 1915. This con- A big take Yes- tract called for $9.200 a year and had | two more years to go. Capt. Huston then signed Magee to a three year contract calling for $8,000. Magee is serving the second vear of this con- tract. In the entire list of baseball the Magee deal stands out worst of the lot. Marsans also has been going badly th ason and was benched for weak hitting only a few days ago. Magee was outhitting the Cuban by a few points, the last averages showing Les hitting .231 against .229 for the Cuban. Pratt is having his worst s since entering the American League. Pratt usually hits close to .300, but this season he seems to have fallen into the St. Louis rut, and is only hitting .223. However, he is rated next to Eddie Collins among American League second basemen. Last winter Capt. well would play with the Yankees or stay idle. Huston was sincere when he said that, and there no longer is any doubt that it is for the best interests of the club to get rid of Caldwell. The New York fans have tired of this fel- low and few tears would be shed i? he were released. Tt will be no easy matter to trade Caldwell, as players of his stamp are not much in demand. deals as the 1son CLAY COURT TENNIS. Cincinnati, July 11.—In the third day of the national clay court tennis tournament women players drew the major share of attention, with Mrs. Walter Ellis of Los Angeles making her first appearances. An accident to Miss Eleanor Walsh of Cincinnati eliminated her from the tournament. She fell while rushing the net and had ta be carried from the courts. Sam Hardy of San Francisco found but little opposition in his match against B. Frkstine and probably will meet Chick Garland of Pittsburgh in the semi-finals Friday. JIMMY ARCHER RELEAS Chicago, July 11-—James Archer, veteran catcher with the Chicago Nu- tionals, was unconditionully released yesterday.

Boston, July 11.—- A new ritual, in course of preparation by a commis- sion for three years, was submitted to the grand lodge of the Benevolent and Protection Order of Elks today.

The report submitted by the com- mittee on the Big Brother movement designed to aid unfortunate and de- linquent bovs and girls, said in part: “The statistics of the countries now actually engaged in warfare show an alarming increase in juvenile de- linquency. We, as Elks, should do something to prevent such a condl- tion in this country. To those of us who are prevented for various rea- sons from offering ourselves for the success of the work in which our country is so unselfishly engaged for the liberty of the entire world, what more patriotic duty could we perform than to take upon our- selves the duty of Big Brotherhood, and to look after and care for the boys of those will go and fight our battle: Fred C.
