MISS LElTCH BEATEN
BY GLENNA C0LlETT

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 13.-Miss
Cecil Leitch, the French, British and
Canadian champion all in one, again
fell before the gameness and grit of
an American woman when she doffed
her three-star crown to Miss Glenna
Collett Of Providence, in the women's
invitation golf tournament at thu
Huntington Valley Country club yes
Beaten by one up, Miss Leitch lost
her second match out OF three since
her arrival in this country. In the
present tourney she was blotted out
in the first round.
Miss Collett played wonderful golf
all the way She trailed most of the
distance despite her remarkable driv-
ing, until she took the lead at the
seventeenth.
The British woman started in typical
Leitch style, with par four on the
first hole. Miss Collett was over on
her second, and missed twelve foot
putt for a 6. This made it | down,
but the match was squared on the
second, when the Providence entry
came through with a four. while Miss
Leitch drove into trap, just managed
to lift out her second, when short on
her third, put her fourth in the creek
and picked up. This was the first
sign that the Briton was not up to her
usual form.
Miss Collett had a wonderful drive
from the third tee and outdistanced
her opponent by thirty yards. The
invader. however, had remarkable
brassie on the edge of the creek. The
Rhode Island woman made great
mashie shot and halved the hole in ).
Miss Collect Great Driver.
One of the longest drives ever made
by woman was shot off Miss Collects
club on the fourth and was only thirty
yards short of the creek, outdriVing
Miss Leitch by about the same dis
lance.
Miss Leitch presented the sixth to
her rival and allowed the match to
be squared again. She was stymied
and instead of awarding the hole tried
to run around her oponent's ball and
lost, 5 to 4.
The eighth was halved in threes,
but Miss Collett evened the tilt once
more on the ninth. The Providence
golfer took the lead for the first time
on the tenth.

Urbana, ILL.,, Oct. l3.-The athletic
successes and the sterling reputation
OF Illinois in athletic circles is due
for the most part to the efforts Of
George A. Huff, director of athletics.
Director Huff began his athletic ca.
reer at the University of Illinois in
1889 He was member of the first
football team that ever represented
the university. and also a member of
the baseball team, being captain and
manager the last two years. During
the season of 1S94-1S95 he attended
the Dartmouth Medical college, where
he was a member of both the football
and baseball teams
In 1895 Mr.. Huff returned to the
University of Illinois as director OF
athletics and coach of football and
baseball In 1901 he received the al
ditional appointment as director Of
physical education for men and has
served In that capacity ever since.
When Coach Huff took charge OF
the Illinois baseball squad in 1895
there was a small student body from
ed with the much larger enrollments
at Michigan and some Of the older
rivals. Despite this disadvantage, the
lllini were soon disputing champion
ship honors, especially with Michigan,
and by 1900 a western championship
was won.

ball teams year in and year out is UNI

conference championship in 1900,

1915 and 1916, and tied for first place
in 1909. In other years his team were
invariably the runners up in the race,
In 1902 Coach Huff's team invaded
