THREE u. S. GOLFERS LEAD
WORLD, SAYS BRITISH CRITIC

NEW YORK. Nov. 23.-English
golfers are beginning to worry
about their amateur championship.
They are drinking IN the outspoken
opinions Of such men as Harry Var
don, Ted Ray. Cyril Tolley. Lora
Charles Hope and others whose
judgment they respect. and begin
ming to take some stock in the
frank predictions that Chick"
Evans. Francis Ouimet and Bobby
Jones are quite capable of doing
what Walter J. Travis did in 1904.
when he crossed the Atlantic and
brought the amateur title of Great
Britain to this country.
Here is what X. Endersby How
ard, a well known golfing writer
abroad, had to say recently in the
Daily Mail:
Most people who are qualified to
Judge agree with the opinion ex-
pressed a few days ago by Tom
Webster-himself no mean golfer
as TO the prospect OF an American
victory in next years British
amateur golf championship.
Il was discussing this matter the
other day with Cyril ]. H. Tolley,
the present amateur champion. He
Is just as impressed as his COM
panions of the recent tour in the
states, Lord Charles Hope and X.
II. Wethered, by the briIliance-
sustained for round after round in
a manner that makes it almost
machinelike-of the three leading
United States amateurs, Chick
Evans. Francis Ouimet and Bobby
Jones.
Lord Charles Hope says that they
are now the three finest amateur
golfers in the world. and think
that Tolley holds much the same
view. 1t Is q wonderful change,
considering that only O few years
ago there was no game in which
our supremacy seemed so secure as
1t was in golf.
True, Walter ]. Travls-an Aus
tralian by birth, although a natural
ized inhabitant of the United States
had won our championship in 1900
but on both sides of the Atlantic 1t
was agreed that he owed his sue
cess to the fact that in the all-im-
portant week he happened to strike
the puttiag streak Of q lifetime.
Nobody in a championship ever
holed puts from all parts of the
green as he did every. day during
that week
subsequent invaders from the
States-Eben Byers, the late Fred
Herreshoff. Jerome Travera Evans.
ouimet and others, all admittedly
hrst class players in their own
country-instilled no fear into the
British golfing community. 1t was
good to see them; we hoped in all
sincerity that their visits would
improve the standard of play In q
land where the game was young.
Certainly something has produced
that effect. For the frst time we
have to confess that We rather ex-
pect to be conquered by the United
states players who are coming over
next season. Wherever You so you
hear good Judges of the game and
ordinarily cheerful people discussing
the probability with an air of
resignation. It is wondrous
change.
Nobody Impressed Tolley more
than the 1s-year-old Bobby Jones.

Central and Tech take the field
this afternoon to settle the District
high gridiron championship. with
both eieyens primed for the battle
of the season and confidence reign
ing supreme in both camps, The
title clash will be called at Amer
lean League Park at o'clock.
Both coaches made slight shifts
in,theG line-ups in the polishing
of practice sessions last night.
Coach Apple has shifted GUIDE from
the backfield to the tackle position
to supplant Suppiee to start the
battle. Coach Metxler indicated last
night he would jerk Capt. Jones
from the backfield to an end posi-
ton and shove Litteli into a tackle
berth and Lamherton over TO guard.
Neither Coach Apple nor Metzler
was certain of his lineup. however.
Both Coaches Drive squads.
Long after the sun set last night
did the rival squads go through
their PAGES. In the final session.
Practice in both camps was con-
fined to signal drill and the per-
fecting OF new plays. Reports from
both fields last night indicated the
elevens were in the best OF shape
and ready for the battle of the year
this afternoon.
Tech, because of its better show
ing during the season. ranks the
favorite by slight odds. Coach Ap-
ple's huskies have lined UP against
some mighty strong opposition this
season. and on every occasion have
acquitted themselves well. None
of the manual training outfit has
been Injured seriously, and the
eleven will face Central today In
the best of condition, according to
Coach Apple.
Central has been handicapped by
injuries all season. and not until
the Western game did the regular
lineup get into action. but follow
ers of the team predict II will show
more today than at any time this
season-it will have to hang the
sign on Tech.
Little to Choose
The elevens appear evenly match
ed in weight. Both have powerful
lines, able to open up for offensive
operations or tear down on the de-
fense. Capt. e. Pugh in the Tech

In one way Penn State will have
deserved more credit for beating

good deal stronger than Yale and

more competition than Notre Dame

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

New Orleans, Sept, Consider able selling pressure was felt by the cotton market today, because of the reported ending of the English coal miners conference in an unfavora- ble way, and the clear and dry weather over the belt but on the op- ening there were advances and again on the close the market had an up- ward swing to it so that final quo- tatlons were points up to 6 points down net for the session. The strength on the close was due to ru- mors received via cables to Calves ton, that the English coal strike, had been settled. While these rumors were entirely contrary to earlier re- ports they had marked effect on val ues.
 The opening advance carried. the market 10 to + points over the close of yesterday but it was soon wiped out in rather general sellin. movement which increased when the weather map was drawn. At fAe low. est levels prices were 31 to 37> points under the finals of yesterday. Oc- tober traded up to 26.92 around the opening and then fell to 26.45. The cotton market closed steady II points to 6 points down, net.
