ten championship courses. Evans
would undoubtedly win n majority Of
the contests through his greater Stead
mess. But in thirty -six-hole cham
pionship test, with the amateur title
at stake, Ouimet would very likely win
sHroueh MS serencr temperament and
his better putting"
This latter theory drew an awful
Jolt when put to the test. Evans NOT
only started with fully as much con-
fdence and serenity as Ouimet. but
outputted the Boston star all the wav.
There was bit of psychology in
volved In Chicks putting this season.
Two of his hardest matches, or two
or his main opponents, were Bobby
Jones at Memphis and Francis Ouimet
Mt the Engineers Both, figuring upon
past performances, expected to see
Chick waste few around the pjn.
But their expectations failed to work
out. i never saw man putt better
than Chick did against me-" said
Bobby. 81 never saw anything like if
And after all this he finally the
match on the thirty-ff green by
sinking l2-foot downhill putt while
was missing 4footer." In the same
way it must have come to the sudden
notice of Ouimet that Evans wasn't
taking any three puts on any green.
And they all know that when Chick
isn't wasting any puts it is going
to require brilliant golf to stop him.
In behalf of Ouimet it should be said
that he is still capable of as brilliant
golf as ever. On his good days he may
be even better than ne was in 1913 and
1914, when he won both the open and
the amateur titles. His recent II at
the Engineers and his 68 at Merton in
| the Lesley Cup matches prove that
none of his ancient brilliancy has de-
parted. But the old steadiness isn't
quite the same. His range from II to "a
IN one day--a shift that came about in
the international match with Canada
and the widely different golf he PLAYED
against Bobby Jones and Chick Evans
show that he Isn't quite as dependable
over long stretch as he used TO be-
Part Of this may be due to the fact
that he doesn't get to play as much
golf. Certainly his putting, while still
amazing in many matches, is no longer
as consistent. He putted exceedingly
we'll against both Armour and Jones.
Against Evans his stroke fell away bad
ly. and to see him constantly short on
all sorts of puts was something we'll
out of the ordinary.
1t all goes to show again that one
can never tell. In 1913 Ouimet beat
Vardon and Ray when he was only
twenty years old. The next year he
crushed Travers in the final and be-
came amateur champion. At twenty
one he had won both main titles. Yet
such Is fate. Seven years have passed
and he Aas never been able to win
either tile since.

Ne was beaten by Armour in the
French amateur. He failed to qualify
IN the United States amateur cham

second round in the Morris County in

Against this we have record of
Evans winning the Western amateur;
finishing only three strokes back in the
National open; winning the amateur
championship. and leading on three oc-
casions a successful attack against Var
don and Ray-one of the most spec

Tales of a Wayside Tee
- By GRANTIAND RICE


Copyright 1920. New York Tribune Inc
The big advance which amateur golf
in America has made In its effort to
catch up with amateur golf in Great
Britain reached its most extended
stretch this past season.
In professional way with Scotch
man holding the British title and an
Englishman holding the American title,
there can be little argument
The records are too soldly banked
against US.
But when one compares tho golfing
capabilities of Chick Evans and Cyril
J. Tolley it can be seen at last how
far the old gap has been wiped out.
When one considers in turn such
stars as Johnny Ball. Fred TAFT, Har-
old Hilton, Robert Maxwell and John
Graham. and recalls the disappointing
showing of Travers. Ouimet, Evans,
etc. abroad there might still be feel
ing that British amateur golf is su-
perior.
But the old order is changed and
Great Britain to-day realizes that she
must rebuild her golfing fences to
withstand an invasion that might take
place next summer.
