MARSHALL EASILY LEADS
IN GAMES WITH JANOWSK1
French Champion, Though, Has
Slight Advantage in Drawn
Contests.

Norman T. Whitaker will leave This
city tomorrow for Georgetown. KY.
where he will start his match with
Jackson Showalter Thursday. That
this encounter will be an acid test
of the local masters ability may be
easily shown by a glance at Showal-
ter's record as a match player. He has
been beaten by Pillsbury. Lasker. ia
nowski and Marshall. and has won
from Hodges. Barry. Delmar. Aibfn.
Kemeny and Lipschuetz. His matches
with the four great international mas
tiers named above were all close, hard
fought affairs. Thus It will be seen
that victory over the Kentucky ex-
pert will entitle whitaker to a place
confirm his position as a challenger for
the title of United States champion.
With lead of two points at the
conclusion of four games it begins to
look as though Marshall would have
waikover in his match with Janowski.
However, a careful study of the games
played scores of which will be found
below, will show that in the two drawn
contests the French champion held
the advantage. though in each instance
his superiority was too slight to force
a win against Marshall's fine defensive
tactics. The play has been of a much
higher class than that shown in the
Janowski-Jane match.
Following are the scores of all the
Marshall-Ja nowski games to date:

BANNOCKBURN GOLFERS NICELY
LOCATED ALONG POTOMAC RIVER
Originally Formed as Woman's Club, It
Has Blossomed Into a Full-Fledged
Golf Organization.

The Bannockburn Golf Club is stu
ated at the junction Of the river auto
mobile drives at Glen Echo, Md. The
mac river valley. and as the club is not
far from the Great Falls the roaring of
the falling water can be heard on still
days.
The club was originally begun eigh-
teen years ago as a woman's organiza
ton for the fostering of all English
games. chief Of which at that time was
cricket. 1t was then and has been until
the last two years located at Chevy
Chase Circle. Four years ago the mem
bers of the present club. DESTROYS of Sc
curing an eishteen-hole course, which
they could not do at Chevy Chase, Sc
cured title to $50 acres of land on the
east bank of the Potomac at Glen Echo.
T. j. W. Brown, John L. Warren and the
president of the organization, Daniel L.
Hazard. took charge Of the financial ar
rangements and superintended the con-
struction Of the clubhouse. An eighteen
hole course was laid out, but up to the
present date only nine holes are in
playing shape. However, it is expected
that at least four new holes will be
opened this year.
The members Of the club are very en-
thusiastic over their golf course, and
all work with the end in view of OBJ
tanning links equal to any local home
Of the game. The formal transference
Of the club from Chevy Chase to Glen
Echo took place in 1915. Practically
the entire membership went to the new
location, but a few who lived near the
old course remained and an organiza-
ton was formed on the old site, called
the Kirkside Golf Club.

OF the holes are very strong and one OF
Two are weak. but such is the enthu.
siasm and ambition of the members ia
obtain good links that nothing, it is be-
l1eved, will hinder them from attaining
their desires.
THOMAS j. W. Brown laid out the
course. and although half of his handi-
work is not in playing condition as vet
the section which is being used is ex-
celient The manner in which he uti-
lized the undulations and rolls Of the
ground makes Bannockburn a most de-
lightful course to play, as there are vir-
tually no artificial hazards The only
difficulties the player can encounter are
those afforded by Mother Nature The
creek Is used on three of the holes and
on the short fourth, makes necessary a
very difficult pitch.
The women have been of much helm To
the man members in the way of improve
ments in the clubhouse, and one Of the
feminine members was president Of the
organization at one time. Mrs. NJ H
Moulton is the present treasurer and Mrs
W. NJ Smith is a member of the house
committee and has superintended the
equipment Of the clubhouse
Many Of the members are tennis play
ers. and the club possesses two fine courts
which are constantly in use
DR.. Browns Services Appreciated.
The last year DIR. Brown resigned from
the position Of chairman of the greens
committee and the members presented
him with loving cup in appreciation Of
his efforts. in securing the land and in
constructing the course. The present
greens committee, consisting of J. Mar
tin Scranage. Bruce l. Taylor, Hugo
Hesselbach, George T. Cunningham and
Richard Beattie. has done a great deal in
the past year to improve the course.
Beattie. who halls from the land of the
thistle and has played much over the best
English courses, has been a great help to
the con- nittee in suggesting improve
ments.

TIE following definition of the real
golfer is posted on the bulletin boards
Of most clubs. 1t is concise and ex-
presses the finest conceptions of the
ethics of the game that can be pre-
scented:
A real golfer is a gentleman. and only
gentleman can become a real golfer.
The real golfer replaces all divotes.
He has the interest Of the entire mem
bership at heart. He is the first one to
gives rather than takes. He never
forces his opponent to the embarrass-
ment of calling his attention to q vio-
latfon of the rules.
When he loses a ball he Immediately
signals the match following to pass
through-and allows them to pass
through and out of range before he re-
sumes play.
The golf player who is not a real
golfer is the one who never signals the
players behind to pass through. or who
hnds his ball after the match follow
ing has started to go through. and
then. resumes play, much to the con-
gestion of the course, and the discom-
nture Of the players passing through.
The real golfer never stands close
to or directly behind the ball, nor
moves nor talks when a player is maxi
ing stroke. On the putting green he
does not play out of turn, nor does he
take his driver and start for the next
tcc "Hile MS opponent Is putting.
The real golfer. likewise, allows the
player who has the honor to play be-
fore teeing his own ball. He does not
play from the tee until the party in
front is out Of range. nor does he play
10 the putting green until the party
In fornt has holed out and moved away
He replaces and presses down the
turf he may have cut or displaced: he
carefully fills up all holes made by
himself in bunker, and he sees to 1t
that his caddie. when on the putting
green. does not injure the holes by
standing close to them when the
ground is soft
The real golfer will do anything to
help relieve the congestion of the
course. He will keep up with the mattel,
ahead or give way to the match be-
hind. If the match ahead is not keep
ing its place. and is holding him back
and causing him to hold back others,
he will politely call the attention Of
the match ahead to the fact and re-
quest permission to go through.
The real golfer never resents having
his attention called to the fact that he
is not holding his place on the course.
Neither does he resent being requested
to allow match to go through either
FOR this reason or because of q lost
ball. He will anticipate the request
and insist that the match pass through
After all, the real golfer is Just a
gentleman who has the greatest con-
sheraton for his fellow players.

The spot to play for is to the left of the

The second shot must be placed accu-

iron shot to the green over a gully. The
green is on top of a hill, and the land
slopes on the left to the creek at the

The eighth is great mashie pitch

Success Spells Hard Work

For thirty-six years Il has been my good for
