After a final without parallel In the
annals OF golf John Ball. the Hoylake

the South African magnate.

EIGHTH AMATEUR GOLF TITLE
FOR THE VETERAN JOHN BALL
Dramatic Finals Went to the 18th Hole,
Where Abe MITCHELL ostMatch

the end triumphed at the thirty-eighth
hole. 1t was John Ball at his best, and
his victory recalled the memorable day al
Prestwick. thirteen years ago, when he
defeated the late Freddy TAFT at the
thirty-s seventh hole after being six down
at the sixteenth hole.
1t was thte first time an artisan had ap-
peared in the final. and in the afternoon
every workman in the neighborhood
seemed to be on the links Some had bags
of tools, as II they had struck work for
the day. They cheered and applauded
Mitchell's strokes and made comments on
anything Ball did. Nothing like 1t has
ever been seen in amateur golf. and the
partisanship shown. and at which Mitch
ell showed his annoyance. was reminis-
cent of some of the worst days Of old
professional golf at Musselburgh.
There was a remarkable incident at the
fifth hole In the afternoon. and the cir
cumstances OF 1t indicate the excellent
relations existing between the players
The crowd gathered round the green, and
the players had difficulty in playing their
shots. Ball played first against the wind
and rain. His ball overran the green. and
hitting a lady sitting on the edge Of the
bunker. stopped dead. Had the lady not
been there the ball would most certainly
have been in the bunker. Mitchell's shot
struck another lady. but he had not the
luck of his opponent. and his ball can
noned into the bunker.
When Ball saw that Mttchells shot had
run into the bunker he at once turned
and said. Have another shot," but
Mitchell gracefully declined. though II
meant the loss Of the hole to him.

CHEVY CHASE WINS
Defeats Columbia Country
Club 8 Matches to 2.
HARD FOUGHT BATTLE
Thompson's Victory Over Davidson
the Feature of the
Contest.

In one Of the closest and most interest
ing of the home and home" matches on
the Middle Atlantic Golf Association s
schedule, Chevy Chase yesterday defeated
Columbia on the latters course, matches
to 2. 1t was not until the last match had
been decided-that in which Capt Morven
Thompson OF the Chevy Chase team de-
feated John C. Davidson, Columbia 8
representative-that the winner could be
decided. as the score stood % at the
conclusion OF the fourth match.
This Thompson-Davidson match was the
feature one OF the day. not SO much be-
cause OF the quality Of golf shown. for
neither man put up the game OF which
he is capable, but because OF its inn
portance-
The visiting captain took flying start
when he won four OF the first seven holes,
halving the other three and making the
count in his favor. He lost the eighth
and ninth, making him 2 up at the turn.
The next three holes We're halved. David
son landing the thirteenth in par 3. The
home player also took the fifteenth.
Thompson falling down badly on this
hole. Davidson made 1t all even when he
took the seventeenth with 8. Thompson
making 1t in par 4. and it looked very
much as If he would take the match on
the eighteenth. as he got away with a
beautiful drive. He topped his second and
third shots, however. and found himself
just on the green on his fourth. Mean
while Thompson had played perfect
game. reaching the green on his third

him the match. up.

The big pitcher Is confident there VIII

II want to get away" he said. Il am
willing to go to any club with the excep-
ton of ST. Louis But I wouldn't pitch
there And do not believe the Detroit
owners will send me to the Browns"
Asked II he would like to go to Wash
ington Mullin said:
''Sure; Griffith has always wanted me.
and 1 believe | would be treateo well
Certain of the players declare Muliin
can still be classed with the best pitch
ers in the major leagues.
One of the stars Of the team declared
pitchers in base ball. He isn't like some
who depend on one thing to pull them
through. Muliin has fast ball. but he
also has curves and q slow ball that can
be called upon when needed. Not only
this. but he has a base ball head.
HE demonstrated that in the opening
game of the season in Cleveland and
again in tho opening game in Detroit
Mullin carried Cleveland to eleven innings
when the American League season open
ed, and In the Detroit opener this SUI
perior base ball knowledge won for De-
troit."
Three different American League clubs
have offered to purchase Pitcher George
MuIlin from Detroit.
The Detroit management has not given
out the names Of the prospective purchas-
ers but 1t is thought Cleveland, New
York and Washington are the teams.
ut isn't money we want-its players,
asserted Manager Jennings this morning
1.-THE Detroit club isn't in need of money
for a pitcher like Mullin, but we are in
the market for q trade"
What do you consider him WORTH
was asked
1--WE wouldn't consider anything under
50. co., said Jennings.
would you sell him for $1,000
well. yes. we might. He's worth that

GOOD BOAT RACES
Seen in Potomac Clubs First
Regatta of Season.
JUNIORS IN BEST EVENT
Crew Captained by Becker Wins by
Only a Few Feet-Parker
Gets Singles.

The first boat races Of the season we're
held ON the Potomac yesterday, when
the Potomac Boat Club held it's first re-
gatta of the year over the one-mile
course. starting from Three Sisters
and ending in front of the clubhouse.
There were five events, all of which were
exciting.
The last race on the program between
mixed Fights was the feature event OF
the afternoon. In this race there were
four crews all from the same club, which
is unusual, as there are very few boat
clubs in this part Of the country that
boast of having as many Fights. The
race was won by the Reds. captained by
Hart, with the Grays second, and the
White team third. The finish Of this
race was not as thrilling as any Of the
other four events. but there was a great
deal more interest and enthusia- m on
account of the large number of crews
taking part.
Junior Fights In Best Race.
BY far the best race of the day was
the first on the program between the
junior Fights, the distance being one mile
The crew captained by Becker won the
race by a few feet, the eight captained
by Eyler giving the former a close run
for the honor of crossing the line first
Capt. Eyler's team got away to poor
start, but soon picked up and by the
time the crews had gone half the dis
lance they were neck and neck, first one
eight taking the lead only to lose 1t to
the other Capt. Becker's team only won
after hard squirt near the finish line.

Ond event on the card. ROeSCh should
have won this race. as he got into the
lead from the very start, but when he
neared the finish he had to slow down
on account of a congestion of canoes
