IGHT institutions and fifty play- ers will compete to-day in the annual intercollegiate —_ golf championship on the Nassau course. Not so long ago Rah Rah boys couldn't see golf with a telescope, but of late they have dropped into the procession of new addicts to the game and are now keen for the sensation of lining out a long drive. The tourna- ment will run five days and will be representative of the best col- lege golf in the East. The ony notable absentee will be Bobby Jones, who couldn't get away from his examina- tions at Georgia Tech, Princeton holds the college cham- Pionship, while A. L. Walker, Colum- bia, is the best individual performer. The programme is divided into two sections. The college finishing with the lowest aggregate total for 72 holes of medal play starting to-day will be awarded team honors. Individual match play rounds will start Thurs- day. Jess Sweetser of the Ardsley Club will be allowed to compete. The youngster is a freshman at Yale and there was some doubt regarding his eligibility on account of this, but everything has been straightened out. ‘The tall, blond youth should material- ly improve the Blue's chances. Walker defeated J. Simpson Dean of Princeton, in the finals last year at Merion, but the husky, curly-halred ‘Tiger captain has won from Wai'er this season and thare should be a hamdinger scrap if these two young atars should meet again. The Greenwich course will be clut- tered up to-day with great wealth when Baltimore Featherweight Dis- plays His Class by Coming On and Winning After Receiving Terrific Punch, By Alex Sullivan. F there was any doubt among the J experts as to the probability of Andy Chaney being the next world’s featherweight champion, suc- ceeding Johnny Kilbane, it was re- ™moved last night at the open-air boxing arena of the Armory A. A. in Jersey City as a result of his twelve-round bout with Johnny Mur- ray of Harlem, one of the hardest hitting feathers that ever stepped through the ropes. Every one who seen him easily outpoint Kilbane on two occasions and,fommy Noble, the English star, agreed that he was a clever, all-aroynd boxer. Last night's {Bout proved he 1s a fighter as game as they come, with the coolest head and the greatest ring generalship ever shown by a little fellow, at least during this generation. Murray can hit like a trip-hammer. He demonstrated that fact a few days back when he knocked out Artie Root of Cleveland, a big lightweight who had @ great “rep” in the West. Murray has also beaten Kilbane and has a long list of knockouts to his boxing a short time. ‘The first four rounds were pretty even. Murray ripped over many hard rights to the head, with an occa- sional left hook to the stomach that made Chaney gaap. Then in the fifth, when they were fighting at close quarters, Murray shot across a snappy right t completely took Chaney unawares and dropped him on his haunch Instead of getting right up, which he could have done, Chaney waited until his brain had cleared, which it did at about the count of six. and got to his feet and kept sticking his left into Murray's face and keeping him away for the balance of the round, ‘Again in the sixth Murray was dangerous.

I. Merseles of Si- wanoy made such a thoroughgoing Job of it. W. G. Jones, th» Scarsdale medalist at the recent interscholastics at Nas- sau, won the doubtful honor again with a commendable cgrd of 81. He was tha, class of the meagre fleld and won away off by. himself, the joint runners-up being H. W. Howe jr. .of Mount Kisco and J. G. Me- Mahon of Sleepy Hollow, who fin- ished in a disinterested dead heat with a score of 87 v ‘With all of awax in the lead at the finish, He seemed to go at express speed the longer the fight went, while his wicked punching adversary slowed up to a walk and hardly landed one good blow during the remainder of the battle, Tt was claimed that Murray had hurt his left hand in the sixth, for he never used it after that. In fact he didn’t use his right either, so he must have hurt both of them. The truth of it is, that Chaney possesses more class than any little fellow boxing around here in years. excepting a one-punch knockout, but he keeps going so fast that it is hard for such a clever boy to set himself for the delivery of a sleep wallop. He has “class” written all over him. The latest announcement is that Johnny Kilbane is going to present managing. the honor of the championship.
