The Yanks scored a real shutout in the firat game and it wasn't a josh affair by a long shot. Cy Pieb took up the task on the firing line and made a fine job of it, He wasn't giv- ing away anything, and two hits, one of them @ very scratchy infleld tap, was the sum total of the Browns’ efforts with the big stick. Mullen, the reservist, who pinab- hitted the Yankees to viotory on Mon- day, wae given a regular session at firet base. Just to show Donovan that he can be useful, he hammered out three safeties and the crowd de. clared it a good day's work, But insisted on playing in the second game and got another safe alam, but the Yanks couldn't win because Ray Caldwell blew. up in the fifth round ‘There is going to be another double session between the Yanks and Browns rey Manager Donovan will trot out # few of his rookies. ke same 321 fans are welcome.

APAWAMIS CLUB, RYE, Sept. 22 Kollo Ogden, a tall veteran from th Baltusrol Club, led the fleld in the sec ond round of dhe anu mniorn’ gull tournament on the Apawamis links! here to-day, The leader, though fifty | eight years old, shot around the 18 hole trip in 86 strokes, which, with a handicap of 12, gave him the lowest net score of 74. The old fellows received a better deal from the weather man to-day. Conditions were a big improvement over the rain and high winds that marred the opening round. The course was in much better shape, which per- mitted many the veterans to turn in creditable cards, esnecially when it is considered that every one of them in this novel tournament is old enough to be a daddy for Bob aGrdner, the National golf champion. Ogden, the leader, was one of the first to compete this morning. He started at a time when the wind was blowing a gale on the many hilly holes and his game suffered a few strokes as a result Ogden was out In 41 strokes, a fine on the short 8th heiping mat- thi | ters a lot. Coming in the leader was twice bunkered on the long fourteenth, where seven strokes were necessary. Again on the 460 yard, seventeenth, Ogden whaled his second shot in a | bunker, and he needed six strokes to/ | negotiate the distance, Ogden's total net for the two rounds ts 153 stroke, a score that the other old boys will find at Apawamis —) SENIOR GOLFER HIRED SPECIAL FROM COAST TO GET TO TOURNAMENT.

The remaining half will start to- | morrow and continue on Friday. Tho | tournament 1s determined by the low- est net score for the two hole rounds. There are othor prizes for the best gross score and the leading net and «ross scores per each round. Second scores- hard to beat. Ogden was not the only senior who did well. Horace Hotch- kiss, the seventy-four-year-old orl- ginator of the meet, went out and covered the journey in 110 strokes. Gen, Weaver came up from Wash- ington especially to compete here, and he put himself In the running for one of the many prizes. Wesley M. Oler, Judge Gildersleeve, Simeon Ford and 8. C.
