The Old Pine Golf Club entertained the

feature OF the game was the new record
of the links made by Warren L. Peck,
who covered nine holes on the first
round in SO. Mr.. Woodland of the
visiting team distinguished himself by
making the eighth green in three strokes,
or two less than bogy. Following is

VANDERBILT CUP RACE COURSE
Arrangements Made for Patrol and
PcIice Service.

NEW YORK. Sept. S-The terms Of the
Vanderbilt cup race, as arranged by the
Nassau county supervisors, will demand

ton Of America. in the way Of policing
the course and protecting pedestrians on

white uniforms from head to root.
On the day Of the race. which is scheduled

he on duty from 5 a. m. till S p. m.
Mounted guards viii be required to station
themselves at the various cross and at all
Of the important turns in the course

INTERNATIONAL SWIMMING UNION
One Outcome of Daniels victory in
Olympic Contests.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The overwhelming
victory of c. NJ. Daniels in the Olympic
swimming events. as well as those OF other
American amateurs in aquatic competition,
has opened the eyes of Europe to the i'm
p~ortance of giving closer attention to this
line of sport. One result has been to form
an international swimming union. in which
England, Ireland, Wales, Belgium, Swe.
den, Germany, Finland. Hungary, France
and Denmark are to have representatives.
Officers have been elected and rules
adopted to govern all competitions. one
Of the most interesting Of these rules is
that defining an amateur, and here John
Bull succeeded in having incorporated his
fsvorite gentleman loafer idea, The def
milton reads:
An amateur Is one who has never COM
peted for a money prize, declared wager
or stakes bet, who has, never taught, per
sued or assisted in the practice of swim
ming or any other athletic exercise as a
means of peeuniary gain and who has not
knowingly and without protest taken part
in any competition or exhibition with any
one who Is not an amateur. except while
in military or naval service.
Exceptions to the above rule as forced
by some of the representatives at the meet
ing held recently in London permit school
masters to give swimming instruction as
part Of their scholastic duties without en-
dangering their amateur status. Payment
may be accepted for teaching elementary
swimming, but pupils shall not be qualified
to compete as an amateur until twelve
months from the termination of such in
struction, and then only by permission OF
the governing body.
The new association has control over
members whether at home or abroad, and
before competing abroad members must re-
ceive a certificate from the association.
Worlds record distances recognized are 10.
