War Won't Interfere with
Amateur Championships
Name Swimming Dates
Bv 4. c. CAVAGNARO

All the national championship
events. which come under the jurisdic-
ton of the Amateur Athletic Union,
viii be held this year as scheduled, IT
was announced yesterday. This deci-
sion was reached by the members OF
the championship committee, following
a mail vote. as to whether patriotic
meets should displace the title con-
tests. owing to the war. The an
rouncement was made by Frederick W.
Ruben, the chairman Of the body.
There was considerable difference OF
opinion on the subject, but the ma
ioritv Of members were in favor OF
conducting the events on champion
slim basis. These individuals also
added that athletic competition made
the better soldier, and as President
Wilson had advocated the continuance
o all sports. it would not be hitting to
curtail the programme. The vote mas
been in the hands of the officials ior
many weeks.
The Amateur Athletic Union was one
of the organizations that gathered last
April and decided 70 recommend the
discontinuance of championship COM
petition owing to the call to the colors
Of many athletes Of the country. Since
then several athletic organizations and
many colleges have cancelled their an
rual competitions, not the least being
the annual intercollegiate track and
field title games. In this city only one
championship meeting was held, TINS
being the Junior track and field games,
which were held as a patriotic demon
stratior.
Although no definite announcement
has been made, the opinion prevails
that the city Of St. Louis will not be
I'm position TO stage the national
track and field games. The Western
officials have notified the local head
quarters that. owing 10 the unsettled
conditions. they cannot say positively
whether they can conduct the contests.
Should the Western city return the
sanction. it is very likely that the
games VIII be held in the East, prob
ably in Newark or Boston.
In announcing its decision the cham
pionship committee made known the
successful bidders for the various ma
toBal swimming races. The Southern
Pacific Association gained the biggest
blum when it was awarded two events.
These contests are the one mile swim.

Favorites viii Meet To-day
Although there are many good play
ers in the championship set. Miss Hol-
Inns and her little English friend. Mrs.
Gavin, are the favorites. II seems
rather hard luck that this pair are 10
meet in the first round instead Of in
the final. "a one favorite must be elm
mated on the first days play.
This pair furnished all of the cx-
element in yesterdays qualifying
round. Miss Hollins had clear lead
coming TO the last hole, and very safe
margin, but an unfortunate thing hap
pened Her second shot trickled into
n sand trap, and then che overplsyed
in getting out and hit the clubhouse,
her ball bounding back to the edge OF
the green. She finally took a seven for
the hole, which corresponded 10 Mrs.
Gavin's bad start. where she also need
ed seven strokes before landing the
ball into the first cup.
Scores as rule were very high,
despite the fact that the course was
in splendid condition and that the play
ers played from the back tees. thereby
cutting Off few hundred yards on the
whole course. Only two players were
under ninety.
