NATIONAL CONVENTION IN
4 SESSION At CHICAGO
Woods Chances Lcox Good,
But Deadlock Seems
Inevitable

Chicago, June S.-With its old
time leaders unhorsed, and its IA
vorites for the presidency deadlock
ed. the Republican began its Nation
al convention here today under con-
ditions of uncertainty unparelled in
recent political history.
Embossed and largely inorganic
ed, the delegates are asking one an
other tonight in what direction they
were straying and when will the
master arise to lead them out Of the
wilderness of their own indecision,
in the noisy turmoil Of the conven-
tion.
The only definable trend seemed
to be driving Wood, Lowden and
Johnson into a deadlock fight, which
it was recognized everywhere might
destroy them all. Oldtimers, re-
fiecting that it is but step from a
deadlocked to a stampeded conven-
.tion, wondered what might happen
next unless some tried and trusted
leader settled himself securely in
the saddle.
Dark Horse Talk
The talk of a dark horse began
to revolve last night about disclos-
the -senate,s campaign of in
vestigation at many scattering con-
ferences and those who advocated
a dark horse nomination, predicted
in the end that no man whose name
is involved at all in the evidence Of
the investigating committee could
be put before the country as the
party's choice.

King George Yacht
Slated to Compete
In Cowes Regatta

LONDON, March 2O.-The famous
"Cowes Week" is to be revived in its
entirety this summer, and the Royal
Yacht Squadron will hold races on Au-
gust 8, 4, 5 and 6. The King and
Queen expect to be. present on board
the royal yacht Victoria and Albert.
1t may be recalled that the King Of
fered gold cup for competition at the
Cowes regatta of 1914, which was aban-
doned at the eleventh hour owing to the
war. This cup will now be offered for
race confined to yachts owned by
members of the Royal Yacht Squadron.
king George intends to race his cut
ter Britannia during the coming season,
and the famous boat may be expected
to figure prominently in the Cowes re-
gatta, which was necessarily suspended
during the war" was the authorized
statement made at meeting of the
Yacht Racing Association by Major
Philip Hunloke, one of the Kings
grooms in waiting and his adviser in
Watching matters.
Word comes from Scotland that the
yacht Meteor, the last of the three boats
of that name owned by the ex-Kaiser
which was purchased by V. Behar, a
British carpet merchant, may compete
with King Georges yacht Britannia in
the Clyde regatta this summer.

British Olympic Body
Proposes Sport Boom

LONDON, March 90 Ambitious
plans for the practical encouragement
of sports among the people of England
are projected by the British Olympic
Association, which has announced its
program in connection with an appeal
to the public for funds required to send
team to the international meet at
Antwerp.
"There are too many spectators Of
sport in England and too few players, !"
asserts the association in its statement.
"The reason is obvious. The country is
pitifully lacking in playing fields. In
providing and improving grounds, club
houses. etc, a very large sum might
fruitfully be spent.
During the year 1920 it will at least
be possible to lay the foundation of an
organization for this purpose. This
the British Olympic Council proposes
to do, and to develop the work itself in
the intervals between the Olympic
games"

Racer Bennett Earns Title
AS s@Wrecker of Records

LOS ANGELES, Calf. March 90
Wells Bennett, the "wrecker Of rec
ords," added to his prestige in the mo-
torcycle racing realm by chopping
more than an hour off the best pre-
vious time for the San Francisco-L Los
Angeles sidecar run. The Three Flags
champion Canada to MeXico) nego-
tiated the 461 miles in IL hours II
minutes. The former record, held by
Roy Artley, was IL hours 80 minutes
30 seconds
This achievement gave the captain
of the Excelsior racing team his sixth
record for the new year. In the run
from San Francisco Bennett averaged
forty-one and half miles an hour,
which bettered his own worlds road
record in a sidecar. Benefits passen-
ger in the test of durability and speed
WAS H. A. ("Slim") Carter
Several weeks ago Bennett and two
teammates-Carter and Doc Eddy
were among the four of fifty starters
to finish with perfect scores in the
Frisco 961-mile endurance run. This
competition was held in driving rain.
Last month Bennett broke Artleys
Bakersfeld-Los Angeles sidecar record.

Competitions of N. Y. A.
C. at Travers Island

Conrad Stein did some excellent
shooting at the Travers Island traps OF
the New York Athletic Club yesterday
He took the high scratch prize with
score of 90 out of possible 100 targets.
On the way to this score he ran straight
IN the Travers Island. Haslin ard
monthly cup shoots. He had a straight
run of SIS targets before he made a miss.
Considering the light, which was not
particularly good, the shooting Of Stein
was remarkable.
The high handicap prize was won by
r. B. Sloan after shoot-off against .
dozen other gunners. All had 100 full
targets in the first place at the traps.
The Travers Island cup was taken by
0. c. Grinnell. In the shoot for the

Engineers Golf Course Regarded
Among Most Difficult i'm u. S.
Roslyn Club, Amateur
Championship Holder,
i'm Existence Two Years

One of the most remarkable golf
courses in this vicinity, or rather in
the metropolitan district, is that of the
Engineers Club, of Roslyn, L. l. Es-
tablished only two years ago, it has
come along in such rapid manner that
it's nails to nuggets the Engineers
will be one of the most popular as
we'll as one Of the most noted golf
clubs before another decade. Despite
the. fact that the club is only in its
infancy, it will have the honor Of
holding the national amateur cham
pionship the second week in Septem-
Der.
Frank H. Hoyt, who spends most
of his spare time on the golf links,
is one of the prime movers in the or
ganization. Mr.. Hoyt is lover of all
sports, but is especially a devotee of
golf, and after twenty years of play
ing he has become extremely proficient.
He holds the amateur record of 80
over the course at Roslyn, and de-
clares he will take on any man his
age in the country in match. Mr..
Hoyt told US his age, but inasmuch as
dences we will allow the reader to
guess from his picture what milestone
he has passed.
Mr.. Hoyt, in addition to being
fine golf player, was a former base
ball star, a hockey player of no little
ability and an all around ath}ete. He
is intensely interested in all branches
of sport, and no nc alter how pressed he
may be with buSlness duties he is al
ways ready to spend a few nome ents
chatting sports and sporting problems,
particularly anything relating to the
royal and ancient pastime.
Never Too Busy for Golf
The genial organizer Of the Engi-
neers' Club was busy at his desk in q
lower Broadway building when we
subject of golf, and before we were set
he had launched upon an enthusiastic
outburst on his favorite topic.
"Let me tell you, we have the finest
course in the country out there at Ros-
lyn. Anybody who has ever played over
those links will vouch for this. Not
only does the course meet every kind
Of requirement, but it is one of the
hardest in the United States. A man
to go around in par has to play good,
sound golf all the way. He can get
into trouble on every single hole un-
less his game is up to snuff all the
time.
"The club was organized two years
ago, and was formally opened the first
Of July, 1918. Every Saturday pre-
viously l and several other engineers
used to visit various clubs for a game.
Our numbers swelled SO rapidly that
it wasn't long before we had what you
might call young mob going about,
Naturally enough, no club cared much
about entertaining such a crowd as
ours was every Saturday, So we con-
ceived the idea of establishing a club
Of our own.

For a. time after his victory over De-

The tentative course for the first an
nual Intercollegiate flying race, to be
held on May 7, includes Williamstown

Such action was undoubtedly taken be-
cause of the fact that the Purple is one
of the charter members of the associ-

Although the students council has
not yet place. its stamp of approval on
the Williams Aero Club, such action
will undoubtedly be taken within few

Harvard Baseball Squad
Drills in School Cage

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 90
Coach Jack Slattery has cut his Har-
ward varsity baseball squad down to
fifty, and another slash is due just as
soon are the men are able to get out
doors. During the last week twenty
men were taken to Concord for spe-
cial practice in the spacious Middlesex
School cage. This included batteries
and infelders, the outfielders remain
ing in Cambridge, with Claude David
son, second team coach, in charge.
Harvards opening game is three
weeks away, with Bowdoin, on Soldiers
Field. The Middlesex cage is giving
Slattery a chance to teach his charges
Unfolding, with emphasis on team work.
Unless unforeseen weather conditions
result, the outfelders will have very
little preparation for handling the ball
before they are called upon to play.

Golf, with its sudden upsets and its
amazing shifts of form, is more like
baseball than it is like tennis or box
ing.
In tennis or boxing form runs con-
sistently even. Which is to say that
man capable Of winning a champion
ship is going to best an opponent who
has never been able to win at almost t
every start-provided their physical
conditions are anywhere near alike.
When Bill Johnson starts in tennis,
once he has attained the needed train
ing, you know there are only one or
two others who have any chance to
stop him. You know that he is going
to beat most Of the others at every
meeting.
When Benny Leonard boxes you
know almost to certainty that his
skill is going to predominate.
Baseball and Golf
But baseball and golf are different.
The tail-ender in baseball may fre
quently rise up and overthrow the
pennant winner or the leader three or
four times in a row.
A crack pitcher may shut out strong
team on Monday and be driven from
the box by weak club on Thursday.
Form shifts with sudden violence.
And the form shift in golf is just rs
sudden and just as violent.
The champion may beat a star one
afternoon and lose to an unknown the
next. Or, if not to an unknown, at
least to golfer not rated nearly as
high.
The form shifts in golf are un-
doubtedly much more sudden and of
greater reach than they are in tennis.
Few Examples
A few weeks ago Jock Hutchinson,
one of the greatest of the profession
ais, was playing friendly match with
Stuart G. Stickney, the well known St.
Louis amateur.
In the afternoon round Hutchinson
conceded Stickney two strokes. The. lat
ter then proceeded to win from Hutch
iRson by the margin Of and without
using either stroke. Stickney had a
rs and Hutchinson turned in an 82.
Yet few days later Jock beat the
fast-moving Davie Robertson over the
Beliealr course with IA.
The Case of Heron
There is the case of David Heron
as another instance. Heron fought
his way through star field in the
amateur championship. He played un-
beatable golf. He earned every step
of the way to the heights.
Yet, since that victory, the Pitts
burgh star has had no easy time main
tanning his status. Oswald Kirkby beat
him in the Leslie Cup matches by the
wide margin of and a. And short
while ago, in the Houston, Tex, tourna-
ment. Lone Star golfer of the name
of Hunt overthrow the champion-and
Hunt at one time was down.
In this annual Texas tournament
Evans, Travers and HERON have all
made attempts at one time or another
to bring back the chief trophy, but
without success
1t would be hard to imagine john
ston, Tilden and Murray or Williams
visiting some comparatively minor
tournament .without registering VIC
tory.
The upset that beset Heron in Texas
had already attacked Evans and Tray
ers in other years, so it was nothing
but Of the way. 1t was merely another
proof that golf is ssfdicted to quick
New-York tribune., 1920-03-21

overthrows, overthrows where Oulmet
can beat an Evens one day and lose to
a Woodie Platt the next.
The Difference
In a tennis championship you can
almost call the tinalists in advance.
1t is certainly no great trick to pick
three Of the four semi-finaists
But who can hope to turn this trick
with any success in golf?
In 1919 and 1915 Chick Evans was
beaten in the first round In 1915 the
three main favorites were Evans,
Ouimet and Travers. All three were
tossed out OF the melee by the second
round
Could you imagine Johnston, Tilden
and Williams all removed in q tennis
round? And none of the men who beat
Evans, Travers or Ouimet even reached
the final.
In 1911 Harold Hilton won the Amer
lean amateur championship. In 1912
he was beaten in the first round by
Gilbert Waldo, one of the younger play
ers then.
1t would have been the same in ten
mis- as if Brookes or Wilding, in 1914.
had been beaten by g young opponent
who had attained but little outside
fame.
Hard to Tell
NO man can tell what a day will
bring forth" was written of golf.
For no man can tell in advance what
his game will be as he starts for the
first tee
The duffer may have a o. one day
and 1l2 the next without knowing how
it all happened.
Hagen, the open champion in 1914,
1eit at his best when the 1915 test ar
rived. Yet he was never close to the
money.
In that same season Jerry Travers
had lost to Walter J. Travis at Apa-
wants Before the open, Travers had
been playing only fair golf He mere
ly entered by way of diversion. And
then almost before he knew it he was
leading the field
Few Reasons
There are many reasons for this
Gof, more than almost any other OUT
door game, calls for perfect timing,
complete coordination. No other game
calls tor keener concentration. There
are so many ingredients to perfect
swing that if only one goes astray
by fraction the result is disaster.
The days mental attitude is also q
greater factor in golf than it is in
most other competitive sports. If this
mental attitude goes astray the high
way is replete with trouble from be-
ginning to end.
If the golfer is beset by any other
cares and worries he is almost sure
TO have rocky day He can't work
this feeling off in golf as he might in
tennis or boxing or football. For in
golf, there is too much time between
strokes to think it over. There is no
way to work the quiver off that besets
the nerves by any sudden rush. The
Huttering duck fit can't be chased from
the system by tearing in.
And so it comes about that golf
form is always variable. It is impos-
slble for this reason to say what
hagen and the others will do in the
British open. If they are at their best
they will be formidable candidates.
But since even a champion may be at
ms best one week and near his worst
the next, who can say until the test
finally comes?

sites, we came across this place at
Roslyn, Long Island. We went no fur
ther, because l am sure we couldn't
find another site like it were we to
search the country over, from Maine to
California. 1t is a wonderful, natural
course, which contains innumerable
natural hazards and ample enough to
suit the game of any golfer.
II got in touch with Herbert Strong,
an excellent job.
Course 6,4Oo Yards Long
"The course is about 6,4Oo yards in
length. 1t is studded with tall trees,
sand pits, numerous hills and other
natural hazards. The longest hole is
the ninth, which is $40 yards as the
crow flies. Five is par, but nobody
is heard to murmur complaint if he
can come off that green with six.
"The shortest hole is the fourteenth,
which measures los yards, but even
this one requires careful play. The
beauty of the course is that it takes
mighty good second shot on each hole
to make par. There is no grabbing
the prize with one long drive, a chip
shot and putt. No matter how good
a fellows drive may be, he's got to
lay into his second shot in the right
manner Ior distance and accuracy to
be able to get onto the green for
3 and then out.
Louis Teller, Jack Hobens, Jim
Barnes, Jock Hutchinson. Tom Nc
Namara, Bob Mcdonald and other
noted golfers have played over the
course and agree it is one Of the best
in the country. Captain Charles
Clarke, who has just arrived in this
country from England, has been en-
gagged as the professional for the club.
He is splendid golfer, and l am sure
he is going to make a hit with all The
members.
Clarke entered the service abroad
in the first week Of the war and ne
was in action until after the armistce
was signed. He has been awarded
moro than half dozen medals.
