WAS ONCE MERE
CADDIE.

New York, July lit has taken
America just seventeen years to rear a
golfer capable of winning her own open
championship, for it was in 1894 that
golf had so far advanced as to inspire
among the followers of the game here
a desire TO emulate the oversee golf

to take the game up had things their
own way.
There have been many changes since

first championship, held somewhat fit

was on a December day that Dunn had
placed upon his head the crown Of the
links at a time when there was tod

who probably never had set eyes on a
golfer or trod links turf. This was
j. j. McDermott. who almost seventeen
years later. was destined TO be the
first American bred open golf cham

McDermott apparently has made
good use of his opportunities. As n
caddie boy on the links of the Mer-

first of these opportunities. Later, he

youngster with bound right into the
public eye When the totals were COM

that many followers of the game had
heard the name Of the Merchantvillc
professional.

TAMARAcK WON GAME.

II was incorrectly stated in The

match between the Tamlrack and
Quincy teams. scheduled for Saturday

and drill team contest. Although
some of the Tamarack PLAYERS partici-
patcd in the contest, the game was not
postponed and resulted in a victory
for Tamarack by the score Of 80 TO a.
The game was very interesting one
despite the fact that several Tama-

Coach Kennedy Will Quit If School De-

New Haven. Conn, July 1.-THE
Yale alumni weekly announces that
John Kennedy. the rowing coach, has
expressed his willingness TO retire from
his position if it is the desire of the
university rowing authorities 10 re-
place him with a coach who can re-
store the best prestige in this branch
of sport II is further stated that
the sentiment of old oarsmen is that
in recent years there has been de-
parture from the original yale
stroke" as developed by Bob" Cook
and that until that stroke Is restored
there is little likelihood of Yale's be-
ing able to hold it's OWL with Har-
yard.
The belief is held g. ag Yale men
that next fall the supervision of row
ing will be placed with "A graduate
council of oarsmen who will decide
the character of the stroke to be
taught In the event Coach Kennedy
probably will be retained and he will
teach the stroke which will be out
lined by the committee.
