BETHLEHEM SIGNS STAR
Bob Collier, Famous Scotehman,
Goes to Upstate Team

The management Of the Bethlehem
soccer team has been slowly but surely
regulating the players who have begun
to show signs Of slipping to the. bench
and signing new players to take the
places of the veterans.
It was reported last week that Bob
Collier. the famous right fuilback OF
Raith Rovers, of Scotland. had arrived
in Bethlehem, and that he had already
placed his John Hancock to form.
That means either Wilson or Ferguson
will be doing bench duty the balance
of the season, for Collier comes here
with even better reputation than Fer
guson, who played for Leeds City while
a resident of England. With Collier
to bolster up the tottering defense, the
Bethlehemites anticipate that they will
not have the least trouble defeating
such teams as Robins Dry Dock and
New York +. c.. two Of their strong
est opponents, for the championships
this year. Bethlehem has not yet met
Robins, but they have played New York
which was one of the teams, together
with Erie, to lower their colors in the
National League series.

diploma Swarthmore High will lose its
greatest all around athlete in the his

Leading Scorer
Although Fricke plays at guard
position, he is leading his pals in scor
ing. AL has Gagged an average OF five
field goals in each game this season,
statistics showing his total number of
two pointers being in the neighborhood
of sixty seven. Yarnall and Henry
have passed the sixty mark, the former
having sixty four, one more than his
mate.
Swarthmore Highs playing this year,
with Yarnall. II. Belfeld, Manning,
Fricke and Ottley as the regular line
up. has been of the sensational order.
But three of the fifteen games so far
this year have resulted in close battles.
In the other matches Swartbmore's su
perior form was evident after ten min
utes of play.
In the contests with Swarthmore Col

form. The College Reserves were de-

j. S. c. A. HOLDS UP
GOLF SCHEDULES
But Western Body Doesn't Wait
and Announces Dates for
1920 Links Season
c. HOFFNER BEATEN OUT
By SANDY McNIBLICK

The United States Golf Association
has so far been successful in keeping
nearly all the district golf bodies from
announcing their schedules for the com
ing links season.
The national body is. apparently wait
ing to get definite word from abroad
as to the dates for the championships
over there. though it is known that
these will be held in the early season.
and there is nothing for the L. :. G. A.
to do, therefore, but set the dates for
the American classics for the fall.
But the Western Golf Association, as
aggressive as ever. is not waiting to
find out when the United States ma =
tiopals will be held, and today an
uounces its dates for the western title
events.
Western Amateur
The week of July 12-17 has been
picked for the western amateur at
Memphis. The western women have
chosen the week of August 3-2S for
their championship at Oak Park, Chi
cago.
Meantime. Philadelphia and other
districts are still on the fence with their
schedules. which have been held up
unduly this year.
But that doesn't affect any of the
dates or Journeys in the South. which
are swinging along in full-tilt one after
another. Philadelphians are interested
in the Deland open, which will be held
February % and 26. Charlie Hoffner
Wilfred Reid and other we'll known
pros hereabouts will enter.
Reid has lust won the open Georgia
championship at Augusta, where hi
won by the margin of stroke from
Charlie Hoffner, Philmont, whose stai
. is shining in the golf world these days
Full Iron for Win
Reid won the, title at the home holr
by sticking a fulliron shot right VI
to the pin for birdie three. Hoffnel
needed five for the hole after he hat
driven mile down the alley
With a par 4 on that hole, Tloffnei
would have tied, and at his present
speed would have had fine chance il
the play off.
