ing the scene for two weeks of hard
practice eliminating in almost con-
tinuous play yesterday. the pictur-
esque golf course of the Country club
was swept and busted and its eigh-
teenth hole replaced for the twenty
fourth open golf championship of the
United States which starts today.
The entry list of 1853 players is the
largest In the history of this event.
Among the starters will be players
from England, France, Mexico and
Canada. well home and foreign
bred players from this country. John
J. McDermott Of Atlantic City. a prod
uct of the American caddy school Of
golf, will defend his title won for the
secon dtirnA at Buffalo last year.
There is scarcely a professional
golfer of any prominent In this coun-
try not included in the list, while the
amateur ranks will be represented by
an unusually strong array topped by
the chaxnnion, Jerome D. Travers
Interest IN today's play. which is the
first of the two preliminary rounds
of thirty-six holes each. will center in
the work Of Harry vardon of England
and Louis Teller of France. The
former carried off the American open
title thirteen years ago to add to his
long list of British championships
while the latter has won many open
events in France.
Edward Ray and Wi1frid Reid. the
English companions of vardon in a
quest for the American title, will play
their preliminary rounds tomorrow
Yesterdays practice developed some
spectacular golfing in which nearly all
the cracks participated. Reid played
eight of the last nine holes of the
course in rs. Ray was hole high on
the 520-yard ninth hole in a drive and
an iron. j. NJ. Barnes of Tacoma on
the same hole lined out 295 yards on
his drive. was on the green in his sec
ond, and made four out of a DOGGY
6 hole.
There was considerable regret in the
afternoon when it was learned that
Charles Evans Jr. of Chicago, the golf
medalist in the amateur champions ship
two weeks ago. had scratched his en-
try for the open.
Just before sunset a small army of
employees marched onto the course and
within an hour every hole had been
relocated on the hardest possible spot.

1t may be said unQualifiedly that
the sun, like every other thing con-
nected with the present order. will
finally cease to be what it Is today.
The time will most surely come when
the sun will have ceased to throw of
light and heat. Long before that hap

planets will have become dead

sort upon them. 1t has been calcu-
lated that the sun will cease to throw
