They seo a chance to climb back into the first division over the conquered form of the Senators, Af- ter accomplishing this they hope to look around a bit and see if ¢he scrap- loving public wouldn't like to see @ little post-season series with the Giants—just for the championship of New York City, if nothing else, Notwithstanding the downward in cline of their daubers the Young Yanks, Murderer’s Row and all, did better on this trip in the West than they did on the previous one, which is Ro big boost. It was no triumphal tour—the Colonels will say it wasn't but they only lost seven games out of the twelve, Three of those were hard luck affairs and—but there I go talking like the gang did as it piled off the train, After bearing all the alibis the record was the same: Won 6; lost 7, ‘Though it doesn't seem to get much of @ thrill out ef Harry Sparrow, who has been ambitious about mak- ing arrangements for a World's Se- |ries, the Yank players are very much ‘elated over the return to form of Thormahien. His tonsilitis had a lot to do with the boys not having any extra loose change this winter, But the big fellow is good now, In addition to Thormahlen the Yanks have an added attraction in € W.

Moreover, Miller Huggins makes positive announcement that he is going to pitch the said Mays, Jaintiff in the sald action against yron 1, Johnson to-day, and your deponent will ever pray, &¢.

The foreign combination 1s already re- duced to three through Lycett's re- fusal to meet Patterson, Other matches carded for the feature courts were R. Norris Williams of Philadel- phia, national title hdlder in 1915 and Vincent Richards, the most sensa- tional of the country’s many bril- Nant youngsters. The gallery expected young Hich- ards would force Williams to his best tennis to win and at the same time sive a line on his form, which has been considerably erratic since the tall Philadelphian returned trom service in France, R. Lindley Murray, defending cham- pion, was scheduled on the feature courts for his meeting with Dean Mathey of Cranford, N. J. Mathey, one of the high ranking players, won several tournaments while with the army in France and was counted on to give the present title holder a busy afternoon. The courts were in excellent shape, heavy rubber sheets having protected the begutiful stretch of veivet-like turf from the early rains. The early gallery, while watching for the start of the play was entertained by a squadron of airplanes which per- formed many antics high over head.

Little Missed Putt in 36- Hole Match Not Conclusive That Ouimet Has Evans's Number, By William Abbott. TVALRY between Francis Oul- met and Chick Evans is as keen as ever. Oulmet defeated his chief opponent at Oakmont be- cause he ran down @ short putt on the final green and Evans missed his. A single putt over a thirty-six< hole route is mot conclusive of one player's superiority over another, Evans twisted everything around in the memorable match Chicago Chick has the rep being a weak putte: against the tall, gaunt Boston star he held his own with the putter notwithstand- ing the missed putt on the deciding home green. Brilliant work with the irons has been the feature part of the former champion'’s game. Inside of 189 yards Evans could practically piace the ball wherever he wanted to, so accurate Vardon on bis visit here in 1913 paid Evans the compliment of being t best iron player in Ameriea. 1 to have quite wonderful mi week was the way Evans misplayed his Irons. The Chicago star's ap- proaches that usually are played so crisply and accurately to pin way below the usual standard st Oulmet. Qui frequentl ar ance to put his shot up for a single putt, but Chick miscued badly, the pail finally dropping in rough td thé left of the green. Ouimet “recovered from the sand trap to within six feet of the cup. Evans chipped out too strongly and overran the enp by ten feet. He missed the return putt, while Ouimet holed his, which proved the deciding shot of the thirty-six hole’ battle, A series of three matches on differ- ent courses would be the,best way to determine the relative’ merits of Oulmet and Evan: Bankrolis of Pittsburgh millionaires were jolted a little on the first ' The prospects of Evans, Ouimet, Gardner and other favorites for the national title returnine the lowest qualifying scores was. very attractive to wealthy Oakmont Club members and they went to it like a duck. It is the custom now for favorites to take thi easy in the qualifying test apd addge the hoodoo that for twenty-two years has pursued the medal winner {n all nations! cham- pionships. Evans, Oulmet, Travers and others were not even up with the dest scores at Oakmont, and what Pittsburgh's money men thought were rood thingy turned wut to be morning glories. —_———<-— + GOLF RESULTS. DETROIT, Aug. 27.—Two favorites, Mrs, Melvin Jones, Chicago medalist, and Miss Elizabeth Klotz, Chicago City champion, fell in the first round niatohes of the women's Western golt tournament. Mrs, Jones was de- feated by Miss Frances Hadfield, the seventeen-year-old Milwaukee ‘girl, holder of the Wisconsin title, 3 and 1, while Miss Klotz was eliminated by Miss Dorothy Higble of Chicago. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27.—The way of the golf favorites lay in rough and rugged places at Merion in the first and second rounds of the invitation tournament. The hame of only one is found among the four survivors, and he has already de- faulted his semi-final match, which was to have been played to-day. Sydney Sharwood of the home club is the lone favorite to weather the storm. Labor Day It is going to be gratifying to us to see so many Par-amount Shirts worn in next Monday's parade.
