The decision declaring two or three of the world’s best known amateur golfers “ineligible” to compete In the American National Amateur Golf Championships at Brookline was a complete surprise to the golfing fra- ternity. For a long time {t has been an ac- cepted notion that “amateurism” in golf was a mere figure of speech. Amateur players have been travel- Ung around the world, giving exhibi- tions and letting some kind friend take up a collection “to defray expenses” or lending the glamor of their well- known names to the tournament lists, If some generous stranger quietly slipped a roll of bills into their pock- ets while their clothes were hung up in the locker room—way, that was a mere detail concerning no one else in the least A well advertised amateur can al- ways afford to live at the best hotels, i ak one uae sans 35 move North in the summer and South ’ HERE’S HOW THEY STAND Of course there are several crack fobs’ with them.

FOR LAST TIME MEET HERE Yesterday’s Rain Necessitates Clashing of Pennant Con- tenders on Scheduled “Ott Day.” By Bozeman Bulger. HAT was to Nave been an off day for ball players, scribes and cash customers has been turned into an afternoon of big bat- tie. The Sunday washout has kept the Browns here an extra day, that this scrap for the leadership of the league may go to a finish. The wilting of our leading fans and the melting away of some $20,000 from the box office, ‘though, is not the real hard luck. “We can stand for the flattening of the bankroll, all right’? mourned Ed- ward Barrow, to which Col. Huston nodded sage approval, ‘but where the wallop comes is in Shocker being all readied up to hurl one more game against the Yanks.” And that is a right smart to think about. ‘The only real trouble the Yanks have had in the series was the first day's pitching of the St. Louis ace, With his passing the Browns wobbled. It took at least three pitch- ers to finish each of the other two games. The chances of St. Louis for the pennant rest largely on Urban Shocker to-day. At the same time this extra has also given Joe Bush a chance to warm up and he will be ready to start or to play second fiddle to Waite Hoyt. Last night it was Huggins's intention to pitch young Hoyt. He pitched a very satisfactory game tn the opener His defeat was due to the inability of the Yanks to hit Shocker. No club can Win many ball games with just one run, no matter who pitches. During the hour and a half of wait- ing more than 10,000 fans sat in the stands yesterday, hoping against hope that the fight could go on even if de- layed to as late as 4 o'clock, And as they sat they talked “These Browns ain't near as good a 1 club as I thought,” an old fan s heard to remark behind us. ‘They play a wonderful, machine-like game, but when they run out of fine pitching they are up in the air.” That pretty well expresses the be- Met of the New York public in gen- eral. The Browns need at least one more great pitcher to be a great ball club. In American League circles there is much apprehension as to what they would do against the Giants, for instance, {f the latter should meet them in a World's Serie With Shocker out of the way they would be pretty well up against it in nine games of airtight baseball HOME-RUN LEADERS American League.

Anyway, the big fight is on for toe day. This game not only winds up the Western invasion for the season of 1922, but the result of it may wind up the chances of either the Browns or Yanks for the pennant. By win- ning the Yanks will have a game and a half lead. By losing they will drop into second In the few days following the Yanks will play Washington while the Browns have to play Cleveland. The Champs know that now ie their one time of all to strike, and strike hard. They go West on Sept. 13, and unless they can increase their lead to, at least three games by then their chances will be rather slim CAN'T CHANGE A _ LEOPARD'S SPOTS. During this summer Twilight Leagues have grown popular in seve- ral of the bi league cites, semi pro teams playing games between the hours of 6 and & o'clock. Often dark- ness comes before the games are over, In a Twilght game up around Bog, ton, according to Mark Roth, assist ant secret of the Yanks, it was getting almost too dark to «ee the ball and the pitcher thought up a scheme. You hold the ball,"*he said to the catcher, “and I will wind up and make motions as if I we pitching. Then you slap your hands with the ball still in your mitt and the umpire will call it a strike. They had two strikes on the batter already and they tried the scheme. The pitcher took a big wind up—a phony one—and turned loos The catcher with the ball in his hand slapped his mitt. “Three strikes, you're out yelled the umpire, falling for the trick, “Why, you big bum," bawled the batter. “You're blind as a bat. That ball was three feet outside could see that!” anybody And inDouble Teams Made Worthless Trip to Brooklyn and Back to Pittsburgh Sunday. {al to The Evening World.) RURGH, Pa., Aug. season has been a queer PITT: one in regard to the struggles between the Brooklyn Robins and the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Robins have fallen Ike 1 ton of bricks when they en- countered the Pirates in Pittsburgh, and the Pirates have fallen almost Railroad ‘tracks as hard when they met ‘the Robins in Brooklyn. Up to last Friday the Robins had not won a game in Pittsburgh this year, and had lost five here. On Friday they won both ends of the double-header that opened their last series here, which made the Robins stand two won and five lost in Pitts- burgh. That was! just what the standing of the Pirates was in Brooklyn. The Pirates had come out ahead twice and behind five times in their combats at Ebbets Field Saturday the Pirates whipped maux, who went to the rescue atur in the seventh in- with a man on, none out, and runs to the merry. That gave the Pirates eight of their fifteen games with the Robins and seven remain. Three of the remaining games will be played here, one to-day and two to-morrow. Two were to have been played off yesterday in Brooklyn Both teams made a dive for the train after a hasty supper on Saturday night, following the 7 to 5 licking handed Mamaux, and departed for Brooklyn, ‘The waste of siller in that trip, when rain yesterday after- noon caused both games in Brooklyn to be postponed, and the teams re- turned here without turning a wheel, broke the Scotch heart of Bill Mc- Kechnie, As the travelling going and coming was done at night the ahtletes did not even get a view of the Horseshoe Curve for their ning, the Robins two money, or a chance to load up on dining car eats, for which a special expense allowance is made.
