Spris Of Heather Helps vardon.

After Nardon completed his morning
round OF 10, which included the usual
number Of wasted puts. the five-time
open champion Of Great Britain received
a present from Duncan MacInnis and
John Boden, two prominent members OF
the Scottish Golf Club of New York
The present was a sprig of Scotch
heather. and IT was claimed by the donors
TO possess the same mystic qualities as
the rabbits foot. At the end Of the day
Vardon allowed that his short puts had
not been quite so contrary.
Vardon really didn't have any luck;
that is. nothing long in the way OF puts
found the bottom Of the cup. while on
two green's. the twelfth and the four
teenth. he took three puts. This twelfth
hole. for some reason or other. has never
been kind to Vardon. who has yet TO get

been something of hoodoo. for his best

urasement from his home club.
His card was as follows:
Amateur Shares Honors of Day.


Apropos of CONGRATULATIONS. Francis
Ouimet certainly had his share. In way
the showing of this brilliant amateur was
little short Of remarkable especially after
a disconcerting start, wherein he took
6's at the first two holes. An over APP
proach and three puts accounted for the
first 6, while an approach TO trap cost
him dearly at No .. From that time on
he played practically par golf. He com
pleted the morning round in Il, went out
in SO in the afternoon and made the next
four holes in two better than IS. he
had a 70 in sight then, but second shot
TO trouble prevented him from getting
better than 6. His last blunder came
at the short sixteenth, where he popped
a mashie shot into the trap. His totai
of l5l. only four strokes behind the lead
ers. makes this brilliant amateur still
factor.
Louis Teller the French professional
turned in la2, which gave him fifth place
in company with c. d. Thom, OF Shinne-
cock Hills. Fred Herreshof, the Long
Island amateur; Jack McDermott. the
present champion. and Jack Hutchinson
divided the honors OF sixth place, with
l53. while Jerome d. Travers, the amateur
champion, had to be satisfied with card
of 1856 The last named played sound goli
most Of the way, but an occasional lapse
proved costly.

did himself He made few mistakes ana

skill.

Rain Makes Greens Slow.

The weather conditions perhaps were
more favorable 10 the invading pros from
the British Isles than TO the entrants
from the states. 1t rained heavily unui
shortly before the starting hour, and the
fairways and greens lost much OF their
keenness.
Overhead leaden gray clouds blocked
out the sun and the air was heavy WIN
humidity. The English players. with their
long carries from the tee. gained an au-
vantage over the United States repre-
sentatives. who lost much Of the effec-
tiveness OF their drives when the ball
dropped dead and without roll on the

HARD TEST FOR AL REICH
Former Amateur Champion to
Meet Carl Morris To night.

Al Reich. the latest hope for heavy
weight championship honors. will be sub
jected TO a severe test in Madison Square
Garden tonight The former amateur
champion, who is a physical marvel and Is
confident OF success, Will face Carl Nor
ris. the Oklahoma locomotive engineer at
ten rounds. While many boxing fans
believe that Reichs manager Is asking
too much OF him at the outset OF his pro-
fessional career, the former amateur. who
was seen at Allenhurst. y. j.. yesterday.
SAID that Morris will be down and out
before the tenth round is ended
Reich weighs 2ll pounds. and is s feet 2
inches tall There isn't an ounce OF
superfuous flesh on his wonderfully built
frame. He is as strong as a Sandow. in
asmuch as he has handled weights in
amateur competitions for years. Ills
hands and wrists are abnormally devel-
oped and there isn't a doubt that he can
hit with tremendous power
Reich's weak point is lack OF ring ex-
perience. but he will be well handled. and
as Morris isn't much at avoiding attack.
the former amateur believes that he can
score knockout
Morris, who is well known as a glutton
FOR punishment and is one OF the biggest
men physically In the ring. will make his
first bow here in more than a year. lie
is 6 feet inches tall and weighs 23C
pounds.
When Morris was pounded for ten
rounds by Jim Flynn two years ago, he
was green In point OF ring knowledge. but
he has been fighting steadily ever since.
with the result that he says he will show
a big Improvement in form.
Morris was counted out when he boxed
the late Luther McCarty In 1912. but he
declares that II was a fiuke. He intends
to go right after Reich 10 ind out as
quickly as possible just what the hammer
