Only Those Who Saw Him
Play at Brookline Consider
Him a Factor in British
Amateur Tourney.

London, March 14--An English sporting
writer. who saw the golf tournament at
Brooklne last September, told The Trib-
une correspondent to-day that while he
realizes Ouimet's strength he does not
believe that England has generally ap-
nreciated the prowess of the young Amer
lean player
"The advent Of Ouimet, of course, is
regarded with exceptional interest he
said but British golfers generally do not
realize how good the American open
champion is, so little fear is entertained
that the British championship will go out
of the country.
"The Britishers who were at Brookline
in September, however. are more appre-
bensive. because Sandwich, although con-
siderably altered since Travis won there
some years ago, is still more or less
one-shot course.
.'Those at Brookline were greatly inn
messed with Ouimet's wonderful skill In
placing tee shots. The thing which, in
their opinion. is most likely TO initiate
against his success is the temptation to
play too much serious golf before the big
competition.
Good judges who saw him In the Amer
lean championships concluded that stay
Ing power is not one of his strong points
After his arrival at Liverpool Ouimet
will play at the neighboring Hoylaks

A. A. U. BASKETBALL
TOURNEY CALLED OFF
Board of Governors Re-
fuses Byrnes's Request
for Appropriation.

The championship basketball tourney of
the Metropolitan Association OF the ANA
teur Athletic Union, which was TO have
been started some time this month, has
been called off because the association
has refused to defray the expenses.
Steve Byrnes. chairman of the basket
ball committee, asked the board OF gov
ernors for an appropriation Of $500 to de-
fray expenses. OF. if they did not want 10
do that, 10 pay the losses. By,a mail vote
all save one of the members cast ballots
against the request. It is believed that
Fred Delaney, of the Xavier Athletic
Association, who is also a member of the
basketball committee was the only per-
son in favor of defraying the expenses.
Byrnes. who has been a very hard
worker for the Amateur Athletic Union
was reluctant about accepting the office
of chairman, and accepted it only after
much persuasion. He laid his plans in
way that made it appear that the Metro
politan Association would hold tourna-
ment that would amount to something.
Byrnes wanted TO have the games
PLAYED at a public recreation centre, with
Iro admission fee charged to the public
He secured a good many entries, in
GLIDING the Crescent Athletic Club, club
Chat has been a bitter opponent OF the
Amateur Athletic Union for more than
score of years. Several other clubs that
disliked the Amateur Athletic Union were
also induced to enter for the tourney
In all probability taps will be sound
ed over basketball, so far as the
nj ic q
its next annual meeting. Byrnes is dis
gusted with the way the board OF gov
errors has acted on the appropriation At
the next meeting Of the Metropolitan AS
ISOLATION he is going to make speech
that will nave a knockout punch in every
sentence. recommending that his associa-
ton. as well as the Amateur Athletic
Union give up trying to control this sport.
1t is said that the chairman of the MID
die Atlantic Association will also make
similar recommendation. Last year, at
the annual meeting of the Amateur Ath-
letic Union, several associations asked the
parent body to eliminate basketball from
its list OF controlled sports but after
much deliberation and hot discussion the
Amateur Athletic Union decided to keep
it on the roll.
According to a former chairman of the
Metropolitan Association, the reason the
Amateur Athletic Union cannot make
success of basketball is that the players
cannot get enough competition to win
prizes. as do athletes in other sports.
Basketball players can find plenty of
competition, but there are few of them
who care to play in public for the mere
glory.

SOCCER TEAMS OUT AGAIN
German Club Has Easy Time
Defeating Patchogue.

Active soccer play was resumed in this
city yesterday afternoon, when the teams
representing the German Football Club
and the Patchogue Football Club, OF
Patchogue, Long Island. met in the Sec
ond round Of the Southern New York
Football Associations cup tie series at
Lenox Oval. The Germans won hands
down to the tune of goals to 1, scoring
six of their points in the first half, with
out permitting the Long Islanders to pen
citrate their defence once. The Germans,
therefore, advance into the third round
of the competition, while Patchogue Is
eliminated.
A. Vandeweghe, Of the famous football
family of that name, covered himself
with distinction by shooting no fewer
than six OF the goals, five of them i'm the
first half. Vandeweghe played at inside
right. f. Mannborg. at centre, shot two
goals, and 3. Holzinger one. The lone
tally of Patchogue was well earned by
II. Hall in the second period.

course. and gradually work his way to
Sandwich, where, even II he is unable TO
make good in the championship, it is
thought he should win the Royal St.
Georges cup, one of the premier stroke
competitions among amateurs. English
golfers think he is at his best In playing
for low score.
Tho American contingent will certain
ly be the strongest that has ever come
over" said the sporting writer. THE
standard of home golf is at low eob.
1t Is impossible to deny that Ball and
Hilton are not so consistently good as
they once were, and none OF the newer
school is sufficiently reliable to take their
places.
British golfers are intensely pleased at
the probability Of Evans coming, because
ne is very popular. He is regarded as
the best American golfer ever seen on
English links. although, TO be sure, it Is
generally admitted that neither Travers
nor Herreshoff ever reached their best
form In this country.
1T is hoped that all the American play
ers will enter the open championship,
though II is not anticipated that any of
them will be able to head the leading pro-
fessionsls on such a difficult course as
Prestwck."
Ii is a course calling for every shot in
the category, and IL is thought Evans in
particular and next Travers would be the
most prominent among the amateurs at
the finish.
