professionals. met Francis Ouimet and

best scoring of the morning was by
Ray. who, with II combination Of long
drives and effective putting, went
around in 13. Guilford used 70 strokes,
Ouimet rs and Vard0n 20.
The best ball of the English pair was
II. that of the Americans "A.
Guilford, known as the "siege gun"
because of his long driving ability. was
consistently outdriven by Ray, who also
holed two unusually long puts.
Ouimet and Guilford were . up for
a time, but beginning with the ninth
hole the Englishmen won three holes

Frenchman Gives Game Exhibition in Thirty yfueMile Grim
by yTrailing Carrnan at Drome-Kaiser Surprises
With Win Oper Piani

T EON DIDIER, kilomrtcr cham
- pion of France. last night gave one
Of the gamest exhibitions Of bike riding
ever put on at the Point Breeze Vclo-
drome. Dider took second to Clarence
Carman. the worlds titlcholdcr. in a
thirty five mile grind. but the position
at the end did not figure much II was
a miracle that he was able to finish
In the early part of the event Didier
set a pace that was too swift even for
Carman to follow, and he brcpzpd out
in front with lots to spare. He held
when he was forced to leave the track
through the comeback of an old injury
suffered several weeks ago.
The Frenchman had to bc half lifted
of his bike and carried to tho bench.
There was bulge in his stomach SO
large that it was almost twice its nor
man size, and apparently he was suf-
fering intense pain. But after a few
minutes rest and extra bandagcs he
went back into the grind.
At the time he was forced to quit the
boards he was leading by matter of
inches. His layoff dropped him to third
place, more than four miles behind Car
man. Then he started sprint behind
Peerless Jimmie Hunter that carried
him into second place ahead of George
Wiley. the Syracuse flash. by a half lap
and he finished in that position.
Carman did the thirty five miles
without n breakdown in A minutes
% 2-5 seconds. George Colombatto.
the only other starter in the race besides
those already mentioned. could not
finish. =, Motor and tire trouble forced
him out on his twenty second mile.
Tomorrow night with Vincenzo Mad
dona, Colombatto rides in the inter
national teams match race for Italy
against Percy Lawrence and George
Wiley. who will wear the Stars and
Stripes.
The big surprise of the entertain
mcnt last night was the defeat of Or
lando Piani, the Italian sprint cham
pion, by Harry Kaiser, the New York
boy. The race went the entire three
one mile heats before Kaiser was re-
turned winner.
The first heat went to Kaiser and
in the second only few inches sepa
rated the riders. Bobby Calhoun got
an unofficial decision and announced
that it was a dead heat. but he cor
rected his statement when the judges
announced that they. had, agreed that
Piani won by four inches.
Kaiser took the third heat by a half
wheel. The best last lap time was
II 20 seconds. Kaiser will be matched
against Wilhe Spencer tomorrow night.

Greenwich. Conn. July 30.-Walter

of 81. which equaled the course record
at the Greenwich course. not only
picked up all Of the strokes. he was in
the rear Of long Jim Barnes In the
metropolitan golf championship. but put
margin of four strokes to his own
credit.
1t was remarkable performance and
Hagen golf was little short of the
marvellous. He was just as good as
Barnes was bad. Jim took rs. mostly
on account Of his wrctched putting He
missed no less than eight putts that he
ordinarily would have made. This tells
the story Of .Iim's failure to keep his
lead over his most deadly rival of the
links.
Once Hagen had passed Barnes he
turned his attention to Willie MacFar-
lane and gained six strokes on him for
the morning play Hagen passed Barnes
at the ninth hole. Barnes was out in

Our Olympic Boxers

New York. July 30.-"Every mem
ber of our Olympic boxing team is
an amateur in good standing said
Gustavus r. Kirby, president of the
American Olympic selection COM
mittee, when asked concerning re-
mort that two o. the army boxers

1t was reported that Merle An
druss, chairman Of the registration
committee on the Pacific coast, had
wired charges of professionalism
against Ted Snyder and J. II.
Grant, boxers selected from the
ranks of the army and now on their
way to Belgium.
"I have received no such tele-

OF these predictions began to wax very
silent, for Nanneman reeled off five
games before the gallery realized what
mad happened. Then after deuce had
been called twice, Amsterdam won u
game. But that was the first and last
for Nanncman. ran the set out on the
next game and then proceededsto annex
six more in rapid succession.
Although this match was not close
as to game score. many of the rallies
were brilliantly executed on both sides
and Amsterdam really put up far
more credtable exhibition tiAn the
score indicates. Amsterdam had fast
service, but he double faulted often yes
terday in trying for service aces. His
ground strokes carry lot of pace but
he gets wild on occasions when he tries
to put on too much speed. Paul's
work at the net was splendid and his
cross court strokes, both back and
forehand, had Amsterdam outguessed
at times.
Kiefer Plays Well
j. Kiefer. Chicago product. put up
neat yame against Carl Fischer. In
the frs. set he had Carl Al, but the
Cynwyd Penn star buckled down to
business and ran five games and took
the seat at Ga. During the first five
games of that first set Kiefer was get
ting everything that Fischer sent him
on his side of the net and putting them
back with lot of stuff on them.
In the second set Carl found himself
once more. and while he dropped three
games he really wasn't pushed to any
great extent Carl has been playing
on grass so much this summer that it
is very hard for him to get back to
normal on clay. However, he is i'm
proving his clay court play each day.
and il won't be many more days before
he plays the same deadly game on the
speedicr surface as he did on turf.
The Fischers. by the way. are a real
tennis family. Herbert has made good
showing In all Of the tournaments in
which he has entered this year, and his
game has improved lot. Barney
hasn't played much tennis this year, but
he put on a classical match with George
Hoffner the other day. Barney is some
what inclined golfward; nevertheless he
likes tennis and he is no dub.

G-3, Ga. Leonards plays hard hitting,

aggravatingly clever placement shots
that Swayne sent past him time and
again.
Many times Leonards brought forth
applause by his net placements that
were impossible to touch, but Swaync
merely smiled and looked even cooler
than he did the moment before. And
what was more to the point, Swayne
kept hammering away with same dis
concerting ease that put Herman Dorm
him out Of the tournament on Wednes-
day afternoon. .
Doctor Hawk was the frs tplayer to
reach the semiannual round in the men

Although the Mississippi legisla-
ture has refused to ratify the suf-
frage amendment il is possible that
the question will he put to popular
vote at the regular election in No
yember. Perhaps that il the best
way TO settle The matter.
The House has reconsidered and
passed the @nti-sedition measure
previously defeated. The representa-
tiyes of organized ifabcr vigorously
opposed the bill.
The House Committee on High
ways unanimously approved the
State highway measure providing
for a popular vote on bond
issue of $25.S0o,0o0. An unique
feature of this bill is the provision
for a two-cent segregation tax on
gasoline to defray the interest on
the bonds. Under the Alabama
plan il ia thought that the license
money Will take care of interest,
maintenance OF roads and retiring
of bonds.
The House Constitutional Com
mittee has unfavorably reported all
measures calling for amendments
to the State Constitution.
A resolution protesting the rec
ommendation of Ex-Governor Bilbo
that there be an investigation of the
labor situation at Pascagoula cre-
ted considerable interest and was
referred to the Labor Committee.
