fitting that the United States Golf Associa-

ter In recent article In the Athletic
News J. L. Low, captain of the Oxford
and Cambridge visitors explains the rea-
sons for the lack of action the part
of English golfers, saying:
We confronted by the difficulty of
finding a body in this country who will
take the trouble to consider the question
of international golf. and IL necessary. send
an invitation across the water. For il these
matches are to be part OF the program
of the future. 1t is well for us to take the
proper steps and make our moves In
courteous and fitting manner. The Royal
and Ancient Club (of st. Andrews) was
asked to take the lead some years ago. and
promised full support. But among the COM
mittees of the Royal and Ancient there
seems to be none whose duty 1t is to loo
at big golfing matters, each committee be-
ing allotted a special sphere of work.
We have been caught mapping once, and.
as the Americans say, ut Is up to u.s. to
make the next move After the champion
ship there was some talk of a team going
to America and playing for the American
championship but there was no one to Or
ganize or even seriously to discuss such a
proposition.

Senators Take the Lead.

Into the lead pranced the Senators in the
fourth inning. Mullin hit to the left field
fence for three bases and scored on Cassi-
dys single to left. Donovan hit safely to
right. He was caught between first and
second on Keelers throw to nip Cassidy at
third While Donovan was being run down

crossed the plate.
The Senators still further increased their
lead in the fifth inning.
The Highlanders woke up in their half of
the fifth inning. Conroy began with a
single to right. but he died at second on
Griffith's grounder to Hill after Mcclure
had been retired at first. With two men
out the Highlanders did work at the bat
that created wild enthusiasm among the
spectators. By the time the Highlanders
had finished the score was a tie.
At the beginning of the sixth inning
Griffith exercised his prerogative as mama
ger of the New Yorks by taking himself out
of the box. He sent Clarkson in to do the
pitching. The former Harvard player re-
ceived round after round of applause, and
before the inning ended he received more
and more. He easily retired the first three
