panied by formidable array of golf
ing talent.
Other Big Stars
Among the others, most of them
youngsters of pronounced skill like
Jones. are Perry Adair, Tom Prescott
and Richard Hickey. George w.
Anderson, who is always a formida-
BILE player, and not SO long ago run
ner-up for the amateur championship,
is on his way to Chicago. as is also
Jesse Guilford. The West will be
represented by a galaxy of stars. even
though Bob Gardner and Chick Evans
will not compete. Just what influence
has been brought to bear so that
these two will not play in tourna-
ment within their own city is not
quite clear. Another notable lacking
in the entry is Jerome d. Travers.
However, even with these stars alb
sent, the tournament promises well,
and it has the added incentive for
good play of being a championship
in actual fact. There are no other
events of like nature during the year,
so that the Western championship
this season is the banner event of the
golfiing year. II not in name it is
in fact comparable this year to the
late lamented amateur championship,
and by reason of the demise of the
latter the golfers here, there and
everywhere are taking keen interest
in the outcome of the tournament.

than ordinary interest to those who
toll the season through as the hum
BILE slaves of driver and mashie.
Unconcerned over the interpreta-

Ouimet and bidden him welcome as
an amateur among amateurs. BY this
act alone the committee in charge of
the tournament has added immeas-

sidered the greatest golfer of the
world, is already on his way to Chi

First Big Match
Not since Ouimet was disqualified
by the United States Golf Association
a little more than a year ago has he
played in a big tournament, and his
return to the game after the long
absence will be followed with close
attention by enthusiasts throughout
the country. What Mclaughlin has
been to the tennis world, Ouimet has
been to golf. a popular idol. In Sc
curing his entry at Midlothian the
Western Golf Association has played
a trump card.

success of the tournament, but, as il
turns out. there are going to be many
contestants who will try his skill

Movie Exhibitors
Are Very Patriotic

The United States Civil Service
Commission has received an express
sion of the patriotism of practically
all the exhibitors of motion pictures
in the United States. The govern
ment is in need of thousands of type
writer operators and stenographers
Of both sexes for war work in Wash
ington, and through its 5000 local
boards of examiners in that many
cities, the commission requested the
owners and managers Of motion pic
ture theatres to allow free of charge
an announcement on their screens of
this need Of the government. The
refusals were so few as to be negligi-
BILE. Not more than a hundred Of
the 10000 odd exhibitors who were
approached declined to render to the
people the service asked. Even these
can not be charged with disloyalty;
most of them held decided views as
to their duty to their patrons who
pay for entertainment only. The
only criticism of the government
camc from three exhibitors who de-
cllned on the ground that It was pro-
posed to place tax on motion pic
ture tickets. One owner asked re-
muneration in the sum of 25 cents
a week, and another stipulated that
he was to be relieved of any RESPONSE
bility for damage to the slides fur
nished by the government. The
slides cost less than 10 cents apiece.
Almost without exception the
movie" men were not only willing,
but were even eager to serve the gov
ernment in the manner requested.
This hearty response from 10000
business men representative Of every
part of the country has a striking
significance. It is interesting to note
in this connection that the estimated
daily attendance at motion picture
shows in the United States is ten mil
lion. This allows an average Of 500
for each house.
