Fund for Youngster.

Owing to the fact that Ouimet was
earning only SIS week when he won
the championship, and comes from q
family not too plentifuIIy supplied with
funds, the members Of the Woodland
Golf club have subscribed q fund which
will be given to him. This fund is large
enough TO cover all the expenses Of his
trip.
0uimet it is said, has improved in his
game since ho surprised the golfing
world by beating Vardon and Rey. the
two Englishmen, and those who have
seen him in action recently declare he
will furnish newer surprises when he
goes against the crack English anna
teurs.
The most wonderful thing about Oui-
met, as golfer, is his GOODNESS and
nerve. especially in tight places. Moth
ing seems TO rattle him or make him
nervous, and many of his American
friends feel that with these assets, add
ed TO the fact that he is wonderful
natural golfer, he may grab off another
championship in England.

NEW YORK, Feb.17.-If D. Herbert
Fowler, famous as golf authority and
constructor of golf courses, has his way,
there won't be so many golfers in the
future boasting about their low scores,
Asserting that improvement in the
courses, better clubs and the substitu
tion Of steel and acid center balls for
the old-fashioRed gutta percha center
balls have made the golf game too easy,
Fowler would have ocross-hazards and
other obstacles placed in the course to
mako the golfers game more difficult.

Ouimet Denies Charge.

Ouimet, however, denies the charge.
81 stopped caddying when / was tif-
teen,' he said. ''Never after that did
I do anything that would interfere in
any way With my amateur standing. l
am not worrying over the charges
made against me, for they have been
made in error When the test comes 1
shall prove that / am an amateur, with
out the semplance Of taint. :"
Hutchisop and his set who are try
ing to bar Ouimet, lack the support Of
the English sporting public. The Eng
lishmen, for the large part, are mighty
anxious to see the conqueror of Ray and
Vardon in action, and they are hope
full that the Juvenile golfing wonder can
clear himself.
The Massachusetts Golf association,
which has authority over all players
whose homes are in that state, SOON
will make complete investigation of
the charges against Ouimet- They do
not want TO let him go to England, as
the representative from this country
and then have him barred from playing
The English golfers who have raised
the charge Of professionalism against
Ouimet will abide by the ruling Of the
Massachusetts association.

Would Add Hazards.

"My idea ia to add hazards to the
course. / would have installed num-
Der OF cross-baZards, of difficult ma
ture, This would increase tho difficult
ties of the player to the extent Of TAX
ing away the advantages he has with
the new cored ball, new clubs and
course improvements, and, / believe,
greatly add to the interest of GOLF
Harry VardoD, the great English golf
CT. agrees with Fowler that the game to-
day is bit too easy, but he does not
feel that hazards would make the game
much more difficult. Vardon, however,
does not offer any suggestion for bet
tering conditions.
j. Il. Taylor, the British champion,
while agreeing with Fowler that cross.
hazards should be installed in courses,
does not think the game has become too
dGoIf as it is PLAYED today is a
mighty hard game said Taylor. "I
disagree with anyone who. says il is
easy believe that cross hazards should
be placed on the courses, because it
would add q little excitement to the
game, but I'M afraid that with the or
dinary hazards and cross hazards the
game would be so difficult for begin
ners that they soon would become dis
couraged. -

! NEWS OF. THE OLD DOMINION
!. MRS. SENFF'S GIFT.
Ten Thousand Dollars For Gateway
To University.

charlottesville, Va, May, 5.-Presi-
dent Alderman has secured another
substantial gift for the University OF
Virginia. Mrs. Charles H. Senff,f OF
New York City, has given $4,000 to
President Alderman to be used in
erecting gateway at the main en-
trance to the university grounds.
There has been a great deal OF anX"
iety for fear that money would not DC
available to build suitable gateway,
at the main entrance, where puilG-
ing has been erecte1, and only recently
completed, replacing old Temperance
Hall, that is one OF the most beauti-
full of the University group.
President Alderman has had this
matter very much upon his mind and
the whole university conlnunity was
delighted to have word from him to
day that the necessary donation had
been secured. President Alderman's
announcement was to the effect that
Mrs. Senff hat made gift of S10,-
900 to him for that purpose.
Mrs. Senff has association of an in
innate character with Virginia, having
a beautiful home at Warren, Va, and
formerly one at Curl's Neck. Her
husband, the late Charles H. Senff,
took a great interest in the million
dollar endowment fund raised by Pres
ident Alderman and came to his res
cue at a critical me in the under
taking with a handsome subscription.
The new gateway will be erected as
q memorial to Mr.. Senff on the per-
sonal side, and to the Honor System
of the University of Virginia as a
matter of idealism and principle. The
greatest plans will be taken to make
the gateway worthy of the architec-
ture of the university.
Before he sails for Europe on May
16, President Alderman will confer
with architects and others as to plans
for the gateway.

FOUNDATION OF OLD CHURCH;
1t is in Hampton = Built in 1917
Memorial to be Dedicated.

Harpton, Va, May 5.-Jacob Hef-
felfnger, a devout member of St.
Johns. Episcopal Church here, and an
ardent student of its history, has all
ways maintained that church much
older than the present one existed
here in the vicinity and this opinion
was strengthened by evidences OF an
old foundation that was partially un"
earthed five years ago ok piece OF
lan& about half a mile from Ord St.
Johns Mr.. Heffelfinger, with the con-
sent of the owner of the land, began
excavations, and to his great delight
uncovered what was undoubtedly the
foundation of an old church, which
was built of English brick. Delving
further into the history of Hampton
he discovered that church had stood
on what was known as the Glebe
land and this was the location Of
same. 1t was further discovered that
the late of erection was 1912, just
seven years after the advent of Cap
tain John Smith to this section and
may have been built through his eff
forts as the grant of the land on which
the ediice, stood was royal grant.
Mrs. Thomas Tabb, on whose prop
erty the old foundation was discover
ed, generously gave the ground to st.
Johns church and handsome railing
was erected around it. Some time in
June a suitable monument will be
erected which will contain the names
of the first rectors that filled the pal-
pit in the OH pile. Quite sum OF
lroney had been raised to that end
and the contract has been let for the
stone which fill be a granite cross.
