RANKS HIGH N SPORT WORLD Records of 1022 Show That America Has Been Trinmphant American amateurs repelled an or- ganized British invasion, winning the Walker Cup, emblematic of the in- ternational team champlonship, by eight matches to four at Southamp- ton, N, Y. and eliminating the in- vading phalanx later in the national tournament at Brookline, Mass, won by Jesse Sweetser, Cyrll J.

Women's golf produced two keen|| New York, Jan, 6.—The clogp o another year of keen InternationXl competition in the world of sport finds the United States with well es- tablished supremacy in a large ma- Jority of the varied flelds of rivalry. The records for 1922, where the calibre of competition has been suffi- elently high to afford a real test of superiority, show America trium- phant in eleven contests, more than all the rest of the contending nations combined. Engiand, which figured as this country's principal rival, has three victories to its credit while Canada, Argentina and France each contests with Mrs, William A, Gavin, formerly of New York, carrying Eng- land's colors on both occasions to the final round. Mrs. Gavin defeated Miss the links, by two and one, for the championship, but in the title event, at White Sulphur Springs, W. Va, was con- quered by margin of five and four, Walter Hoover, Duluth oarsman, achieved a notable triumph for Amer- icn when he captured the historic Diamond Sculls trophy in the Eng- lish Henley on the Thames.

Called on in most instances to de- fend its laurels, the United States maintained its supremacy in men's tennis, women's swimming and pro- fessional billiards; scored five vic- tories in six international golf con- tests, trlumphed twice in yachting and once in rowing. England swept to the fore in men’'s and women's track and field sports and accounted for the other golf victory, a meagre showing where the British Lion in former years ruled the royal and ancient heights supreme. France was victorious in women's tennis; Argentina’s spectacular riders dashed to polo triumphs here and in Eng- land; while Canada retained the fish- ing schooner championship. England Wins Once. England came through with flying celors in one of the first interna- tional tests of the year when in April advanced easily through preliminary contests and in the final race de- cisively defeated J.
