The golf links at Weeauahic Park
will be opened on July and golfers
and would-be golfers hereabouts are.
very much interested in the new
nine-hole course. The accompanying
picture. taken by the staff photog-
rapher of The Evening Star is the
first published. 1t shows the ap-
proach to the eighth green and the
trouble TO be encountered before you
get on the fair green and on the
putting green. When the links open
on the Fourth, it is expected that
large field of golfers will make the
rounds. The various holes were num-
bered yesterday and everything will
be in readiness to play on the Fourth.
The Weequahic Golf Club is taking
a decided interest in the new links
and its members will do their hest
to interest those who have never
played the game Golf is misunder-
stood. 1t is a wonderful game and
no man who has ever played it has
ever been known to give it up. 1t is
a little costly, but it is worth the
price every time. Become a golfer
and you will be less of crouch
Joe Fogler feels that he is likely TO
get the worst Of his match race with
Cesar Moretu at the Velodrome to-
night because of the stories that have
been printed that if Fogler or any
other rider attempted to rough"
Moretti the Italian fans would take
hand in the matter. This, of course,
cannot be, for while the Italians are
enthusiastic and all that they are
sports enough to know that athletes
must fight their own battles. How
ever, Fogler is game and he declares
that he is going to employ every trick
in the game to beat Moretti. If he
does show the Italian the way home
he will be a wonder for sure, for
Moretti is known to be a great
Splinter and is not far removed from
the greatest of all sprinters-Cham-
pion Frank L. Kramer.

The card of races at the Velodrome
tonight will be the same that was
postponed Sunday and again last
night. 1t is one of the best programs
of races ever offered at the local bike
track and General Mcfarland is
anxious to run it, for he believes, he
says, it will make hit with the fans
and make friends for the Velodrome.
The race that is sure to interest most,
| would think, is the half-mile pro
championship, but General MacFar-
land will tell you that the pro cham
pionship will not be the best race on
the card. However. I am taking a
chance that the fans will find it
rather exciting when four of the best
men at the track start in to battle
race. The Moretti- Fogler contest
should also prove interesting. and l
know a lot of people who are pulling
for nice weather for this evening.

Charles Fl. Ebbets, jr.. announced
this morning that Johnny Enzmann,
the Newark Clubs pitcher, has been
released to the Brooklyn Club and
has signed a three-year contract. He
will join the Brooklyns, Mr. Ebbets
consideration is named, but it is to be
presumed that Enzmann goes to
Brooklyn as payment for players that
have been sent over to Newark. The
Brooklyn Club owners are in control
of the Newark Club, and in taking
Enzmann they are exercising their
prerogative. 1t is a business move,
in which the player is favored with
advancement, and is in line with the
, policy outlined and advocated by
Charles H. Ebbets, ST., in all his
talks. Mr.. Ebbets has said that
ball player should not be kept down
in the minor leagues if there is a
place up in the major leagues for
him. This argument fits the Enz-
mann case, and we wish him luck in
his new job.
The ball players seem to take keen
delight in stirring up trouble at this
particular time. Not a day passes
unless some rowdy action is perpe-
trated on the diamond. The players
make it their business to pick fights
with the umpires. and the game is
reaching a ridiculous stage. Baseball
is the players game more than any
one else's game, and they should be
the first to protect it to the limit
But no. With the OUTLAW" Federal
League as club over the magnates'
heads, every advantage, it appears, is
being taken. In st, Louis yesterday
