URGE ALL CITIZENS
TO RALLY OC0. M
Letters Bearing Personal Appeal
Sent Out - For Meeting At
Carvel Hall Tonight

With appeals being made by letter
to the male citizens OF Annapolis. and
a meeting arranged to be held tonight
at Carvel Hall for further discussion
of the situation of Annapolis and It's
representation in the military forces
of the State, hope is felt that the eff
forts to secure the reorganization of
Company NJ, of the First Infantry, will
yet bear fruit.
This will be the main object of to-
nights meeting, and the plan is to put
new vigor into drive to secure re-
cruits for the local company and
thereby keep Annapolis abreast of the
other towns of the State from a mill
tary standpoint. Thore will be din
ner preceding the meeting. The prin-
cipal address of the occasion will be
delivered by Captain Harry l.. Hagan,
of Hagerstown, who has conducted re-
cruiting campaigns in several other
cities of the State, and who heads a
recruiting party now in the city.
Those attending tonight's gathering
will be the members of the. committee
appointed several months ago by Gov
ernor Richie, of which Judge Robert
Moss is chairman.

SANDY HOOK, N. j., July 26.---
Shamrock Nv, the big green sloop with
which Sir Thomas Upton hopes to lift
the American cup, sped first across
the line today at the start OF the fifth
international yacht race, which will
decide the 1920 series.
Shamrock crossed nearly a minute
ahead of Resolute. according to unoffl-
cial time ashore.
The course was a fifteen mile run
from the Ambrose Channel Lightship,
south by west, half west. with fifteen
mile beat back to the lightship.
Shamrock passed over the starting
line at 12:30.29, official time, and her
rival 12:31.25, after the starting sig
nal had been sounded at 1890 p. M.
At 12:45 the yachts were moving very
slowly with Shamrock still out ahead
She had failed, however, to gain on
Resolute since the start. The yachts
were nearly two miles to the west
ward OF the course.
Five Miles on Course, Drifting
At 1882 the race was little more
than drift. The yachts were nearly
i've miles off their course and within
three miles of the beach.
Shore observers estimated that the
Shamrock was leading the defender by
not more than 200 yards, although OBJ
servers on the official press boat had
the sloops $50 yards apart.
AT 1:50 Resolute passed Shamrock
on the way to the outer mark and was

TWO ARRESTS FOR

Both offenders were from out of

that with the hundreds of visiting cars
passing through the city yesterday
there were but two offenders.

MILLERSV|LLE HOPES
TO GET A PHYSICIAN
But Baltimore Hospitals Say
They Cannot Spare Internes
For County Village
INTERNES ARE SCARCE

Millersville. this county, offers a
good opportunity for a resident ply
sician.
Little hope is given by the hospi-
tails OF Baltimore, TO which an ap-
peal was made. for internes are pre-
cious articles these days and none of
the hospitals has one to spare.
Acting Superintendent X. ]. Van
Norman, OF Johns Hopkins Hospital,
said he was sure he did not know
where or how MilIersville could get
a physician at this time. The medi-
cal school graduates of this summer
already were placed" as far back as
January or December and the hos
pital itself could not spare a man
even for a town without a single doc
tor. Other hospital superintendents
were equally reluctant to yield up
an interne and the appeal to the Bal
timore hospitals apparently will avail
nothing to Millersville.
City Demands Are Great
No physician hunting location in
small places were on the list of the
Medical and Chirurgical Faculty, al
though the secretary did not kill all
hope. The State Board of Health said
the situation should be remedied in
some way, but could not put its hand
on the remedy just at the present
time. There is no law regulating the
distribution of competent physicians,
and few OF them are hunting for small
towns in which to locate. The de-
mand is too great in the large cities
and in nationally famous hospitals.
In the meantime Millersville gets
sick at it's peril and receives medical
aid and treatment as chance DEGREES.
DR.. Thomas II. Brayshaw, six miles
away at Glenburnie, is the nearest
physician. but is so busy with his
present practice that he has found 1t
impossible to take in"
Millersville too. One or two physi-
clans at Annapolis, miles away, con-
sent to go out to Millersville when
It is absolutely necessary, while
other Annapolis physicians consent to
prescribe over the telephone. But
telephone visits are not popular, and
the personal visits are usually at the
rate of 81 a mile, according to the
Rev. Charles r. Taylor, pastor of
Baldwin Memorial Methodist Episco-
pal Church at Millersville. A few

Tennis Um7pires
Becoming g More
And More Efficient

Along with the tremendous de-
velopment in lawn tennis in recent
years, the National Tennis Umpires'
Association has. grown into an organi-
zation whose influence is felt and
appreciated, from coast to coast.
Since its formation, few years. ago,
the N. T. U. A has come to be recog-
nized as the leading authority on the
conduct of tournaments and all other
problems that arise in connection with
these fixtures.
The number of competent tennis
umpires has been vastly increased
through the work Of the umpires' as
sociation. The plan Of organization
Is to appoint in tennis centers a
chairman of the local chapter of the
association. He recommends the
various umpires for appointment in
that city, and when each has been ap-
proved, he is given an official card.
recognizing him as member of the
association.
A manual has been prepared by the
umpires' association, Containing manv
new suggestions for the management
of tournaments, and a complete dis
cufsion Of the duties of players and
officials. Correspondence should be
addressed to the association at Room
721. 20 Broad Street, New York City.

Tales of a Wayside Tee
By GRANTLAND RICE
Copyright. 1920. New York Tribune Inc.

AS q rule the golf lover is far more
Of player than spectator. Golf is
game to play, in most instances,
rather than game to watch. Only
the topliners can change this arrange
ment.
On the other side Of it, the golfer
is also a citizen who is deeply inter-
ested in improving his game. He is
always looking for some aid that will
remove few wasted strokes and give
him chance to beat some steadier
opponent who has been regularly alb
sorbing his small chance. This is only
one Of the reasons why Harry Vardon
and Ted Ray will draw very large
crowds as they drift around the golf
ing map meeting all corners at catch
weights.
BY Way of Instruction
Ray and Vardon, or Vardon and Ray,
serve as double attraction. First
there will be the competitive angle.
Once more we find Great Britain meet
ing the United States in one Of the
greatest Of all international years. Be-
fore they have concluded their tour
the two great English golfers will
meet the leading professionals and
amateurs Of the country, where many
Of the matches will be much closer
than they were seven years ago. Golf
has come far in the United States
since 1918.
In the second place, the big golf
galleries will be deeply Interested in
watching the two English stars and
picking up every tip that might be
suggested.
Those most interested will be found
watching the players as they make
the stroke, not far down the course
where the ball should land There is
no. information or instruction to be
gained from watching a ball land upon
the turf, even though it roll within
few inches Of the hole. The place
to watch golf match, for instruction,
is as close to the player as the ropes
will permit.
Vardon's form at golf has long been
recognized as the standard of grace
and rhythm and natural ease No one
can expect to copy this form intact.
But 1T can suggest many remedies, and,
at least, act as an inspiration. The
more thoughtful golfer will watch not
only his stance but his method Of
swinging-the position of his hands
at the top Of his back swing for the
drive and for all iron play; the man
ner In which he starts his club back;
the way his body follows the stroke,
and the action of his feet throughout
the swing.
There will be any number of things
to watch where both men are con-
cerned-any number Of things to re-
tain in memory that may serve for
future thought.
|, Watch Vardon play his full iron to
the pin; Ray his high pitch shot to
the green. These two sights alone
will be worth trip to any course that
can be reached in an hours ride.
Harder Competition
AS We recall the statistics, vardon
and Ray lost but two matches during
their tour In 1918. One Of these de-
feats came from Alex and Mcdonald
Smith. But out Of seventy contests
their record was q sweeping triumph.
They will undoubtedly win q big
majority of their matches upon this
trip, but the triumph will not be near
