STANDING OF THE CLUBS
MIDDLEATLANTIC DATES
MAY BE REANNOUNCED
Tourney to Be Patriotic" One for
Red Cross Benefit.

Golfers Will no doubt be interested in
learning that the chances are that the
Middle Atlantic Golf Association event.
which was scheduled to be placed on the
Chevy Chase course on June Z, and 3,
and called of on account Of war condi-
tiOns, will probably be reannounced for
these dates. The matter has been put up
to the executive committee of the asso-
citation and will be decided by a mail
vote, Secretary Winter now being in cor
respondence with the representatives of
the various clubs in the association. The
event, IL held, however, will be in the ma
ture of a patriotic" one, calling for
prizes o. no intrinsic value and carrying
with it no titles, all proceeds to be turn
ed over to the American Red Cross for
relief purposes.
The District events will not, probably
be held this year as they have been called
of and those in charge do not feel that
1t would be advisable to reschedule them
although this step is still a possibility
and may be brought up later in the sea-
son.
Secretary Winter does not believe that
war conditions will affect the Middle At
lantic team championship matches which
will be held in the fall and the execu-
tive committee expects to go ahead with
its plans regarding this event

Joe Leonard Is Put Off the
Field for Expressing His
Honest Opinion.
By JOHN A. DUGAN.

Cleveland, May l3.-The decisions
rendered by Umpire Larry Mccormick
easily won the battle for Cleveland to-
DAY. Mccormick was hooted by the
Cleveland fans for his poor judgment on
the play OF Speaker at the plate while
ne was In a rag-chewing contest with
both the Nationals and Cleveland play
ers during the entire game because OF
his poor Judgment of balls and strikes.
His calling of balk on Shaw In the
third inning was the turning point In the
contest and II Shaw baked, Mccormick
has found new idea of the rule as even
the veteran Tommy Connolly admitted
after the fray that Larry Was little
Off on his decision.
The missing of a grooved ball on Cove
leski really scored Evans as this would
have completed the inning. This poor
judgment of balls and strikes and Nc
Cormick's calling of Speaker safe and
this balk are In no way present to abb
the Nationals for the losing of the game
as they were given five occasions under
the alright pitching of Covelesd to
break up the affair but failed.
The umpiring by Mccormick was the
poorest that has been witnessed here
this season and It is an easy bet II
he had handed the home team the same
line that few of the West Side
Under the fire grabbing by the entire
National team Mccormick was hooted
and yelled at by the Cleveland fans.
Larry was forced to send Eddie
Ainsmith to the bench. while Joe Leonard
was put of the field for Just stating
his honest opinion. The Old Fox stated
tonight that he did not expect either
of these players would be suspended as
he claims that he does not think that
Mccormick has the backbone to issue a
complaint to Ban B. Johnson.
Griff is for his players at all times, and
especially when they are right, and to-
day defied Mccormick to send any more
of them out of the lot. Quite a little
trouble Is expected IL Mccormick
suspends either Leonard or Ainsmith as
the Old Fox stated tonight that Nc
Cormick was the poorest umpire that 1t
has ever been his pleasure to witness in
action and that he would stand by
Ainsmith and Leonard to the limit Of
protesting against Mccormick handling
any more of his games
Harry Harper will be given his chance
of staging his third comeback tomor-
row when he will open the season against
the Tigers. Du Mont will be worked H..
the second contest with johnson COM
ing back for the third. Ayers or Shaw
will no doubt work in their turn. Griff
is confident of getting more than an
even break with the Jungle Land"
crew, but tonight he is carrying around
real crouch, with a big Irishman as
his point of view.
