Yesterday in WindstOrm in Dis
trict Golf Meet

Chicago. June 23-Amid a heavy
rain and windstOrm contestants start
ed in the amateur championship of the
Chicago District Golf association at
Midlothian yesterday. More than nine
~ reported for play, and when the So
holes had been completed it was
found that Robert A Gardner of Hins-
dale, national amateur champion, led
the field with his card of 79-77-156.
Despite the slow going Gardner en-
countered little trouble on the full
round and had but three skies on his
card.
Donald Edwards of Midlothian,
present district champion, got a poor
start on the morning round and took
50, but finished with a rs, giving him
a total of 100 and second place. Paul
Hunter, also of Midlothian and War
rem X Wood of Flossmoor, former
western title holder, tied with scores
of ISL. Hunter had an 81 and so,
while Wood started with 50 in the
morning, but tied for best score in the
afternoon round with his II.
With a card of 79-S3-162, W. l.
Rowland Jr. of the Chicago Golf club
became a contender for final honors
The Wheaton player threw scare in
to his rivals when he tied Gardner at
the end of the morning round, but he
got into considerable trouble on the
second half of the journey.
Gardeners best round was the after
noon journey, where he finished three
strokes over par of the course. He
went out in 80 and came back in 80,
while in the forenoon he registered Al
for the first half and IS for the last
nine holes.
After finishing the first nine holes
of the afternoon round in Al, Donald
Edwards made the best nine-hole
score of the day by finishing in par
figures, 81 In the morning the Mid
lothian player took 40 for the first half
and SO for the return trip.
The first 16 qualified for the cham
pionship and will continue today in
the second So holes. The balance of
the field is scheduled to compete in
the last half of the 72-hole handicap
event

CONDITIONS IDEAL
FOR BIC REGATTA
Crowds Gather On Historic Thames
Course at New London to See
Yale and Harvard Race.

Regatta Course, New London, Conn,
June 23.-Yale-H Harvard regatta day
broke bright and fair and wind and
water conditions promised to be ideal
for the three races between the rival
oarsmen today upon the historic
Thames course.
The first contest was to be the
freshman-eight race Of two miles this
morning, followed Immediately by the
second varsity-eight event over the
same course.
The big race between the varsity
Fights over a four-mile course was to
be rowed at 5:45 o'clock this after
noon, conditions permitting.
Betting was light, favoring Har-
ward in the big race, with Yale a
strong favorite in the freshman con-
test. The second varsity race was an
even-money proposition.
The crowds came late to New Lon
don The harbor was choked with
steam yachts and craft OF all descrip-
lions.

BROWNS
STOP IN The CITY
Manager Fielder Jones, in Talkatiye
Mood Comments on Conditions
Baseballically Speaking.

eff the United States declares war
on Mexico, it means the passing of
practically every minor league in the
country" said Fielder Jones, manager
of the st. Louis Browns this morning.
Fielder and his teammates stopped off
several hours in Rock Island this
morning, en- route to Clinton, Iowa,
where they are scheduled to play an
exhibition game this afternoon. Jones
was sincere in this statement and he
believes absolutely that war will sound
the death knell of the smaller circuits.
Three years ago." he said, you could
not purchase franchise in the Inter
national league less than from $4,000
to 100000, today you could buy one
for song. The same conditions exist
in every other minor league, as the
public interest in this class of ball has
gone back woefully"
Which club do you think will grab
the rag in the American league" the
flelder was asked by curious scribe.
THE st. Louis Browns of course" said
the fielder with a smile. NO, seriously
| should say the pennant lies between
Cleveland, Chicago, Washington and
Detroit. The race is sure TO be close
one. The trouble with my club has
been its inconsistency. One day the
boys play like champions and the next
day resemble lot of buShers." When
questioned on the general conditions
in the major leagues, Jones stated that
the western clubs were Furnishing and
doing well financially. However in
the east the passing of the Federal
league did not revive the interest to
any great extent.
