n. Y. . A. G.. Swimmer,
Joins ''Pro'' Ranks
Champion and Record Hold
er Signs to Coach Mercers-
burg Academy WaterT Team

Local A. A. u, circles were treated
to . surprise yesterday by the an
nouncement that Joseph Wheatley, of
the New York Athletic Club, had
turned professional and has been signed
to coach the Mercersburg Academy
swimming team this fall. Wheatley,
who is one of the most versatile swim
mers ever developed in the metropoli-
competition for nearly a decade and
won number of national and metro
politan championships.
1t was only last week that Wheatley
stepped out of a temporary retirement
and won the Adirondack Association
championships at 44O yards and the
half-mile at Schenectady. Although
both these events were held the same
evening, the Mercury Footer won easily
and, in addition, took first place in a
1,000-yard SWIM
During his ten years of competition
Wheatley hit two high marks-the first
when he overwhelmingly defeated Hal
Vollmer, of the same club, in a mile
race; the second when he beat the in
vil.ciblc Duke p. Kahanam oku, of Ha-
wall in a 220-yard race in the pool of
the Detroit A. c. in 1916 Wheatley won
the national 44o-yard title in 1913 and
still holds the metropolitan A. A. u.
record for one mile.
Willie Boston, crack high jumper of
the Alpha A. A, has requested the A.
A. U. Registration Committee to per-
NIT him to compete in future as unat-
tached. The former metropolita cham
pion has been getting into condition
for the coming indoor season, but will
be unable to carry the colors of any
other club for a year
The Multnomah A. A. c.. of Port
land, Ore, is to lose two of its crack
swimmers this fall, when Bus Douglas
and Myron Wilsey enter Columbia
University. The pair have been car
rying the winged an" of the Pacific
Northwest organization in aquatic
meets up and down the west coast for
several seasons. Although Douglas
and Wilsey represented the University
of Oregon it is believed they will be
eligible to represent Columbia during
the coming season.

Pair Are the Only Play
ers i'm Field of 100
TO Break Score of SO
By Ray Mccarthy

All Of the scoring that is, SO far as
sharpsYnoting was concerned-in the
qualifying round of the ,Arcoia Club
was done by Roy Webb and G. I. Law-
yer. These players were the only con
testants in field of ono hundred or
more golfers able to break 30 ON the
beautiful Jersey course. They got 78
each and tied for the medal
Whether it was due to tho exception
ally fine condition of the greens or
simply poor golf, the fact is that none
of the competitors did any brilliant
scoring. To say that good green's may
have been responsible for the high scor
ing probably sounds paradoxical, but
most of the courses in this section gen
orally have difficulty in keeping the
greens velvety at this time of year
Arcoa Clubs are in splendid shape.
Webb is golfer of several years
experience who has possibilities as 81
linksman, but who has not appeared in
tournament play in this section recent
ly. Several years ago he won notoricty
playing in the New Jersey State anna
teur championship when he finished as
runner-up to Max Marston. He is now
playing from the Siasconsett ClAb.
Webb went out in the good score of SO,
one over par, and was travelling on high
coming back.
Webb Escapes Disaster
On the return journey, as far as the
sixteenth hole, he was more than hold
ing his own against par of the course,
being one under, when suddenly, like
Humpty Dumpty, he crashed with a
terrific fall and ruined what promised
to be perfect day, by finishing 8o5
for q az. That AZ, with his SO, gave
him his total Of 7S and enabled him
to tie with Lawyer. 1t was a narrow
escape Webb had from complete dis
aster.
Lawyers round, while spotted with
several skies, was more even than
Webb's. At least, he did not suffer the
debacle in the latter part of his round
that befell Webb. He was out in 81
and came back in Al strokes, SO that he
was fairly consistent. These were the
cards of the two leaders,

William Reekie, of the Upper Mont
clair Club, who won this tournament

That was the same score made by F.
S. Danforth, of North Fork. and w. M.
Oler jr., of South Shore. Reekie was
out in AZ and back in 38. He got off to
bad start, picking up pair of skies
on the first couple of holes and col
lecting third at the fourth hole.
Lansing's Good Showing
Newton Mair, the present New Jer-
sey state amateur champion, found the
going rather rough also, and qualified
with an 49, j. Z. Hale, who was run
ner-up to Mair. in the state meet last
June, banged 81 blows out of his sys-
TEN and just missed getting into the
first sixteen competition.
Chester Lansing, fine young golfer
of the Knickerbocker Club. who bears
striking resemblance to Woodie Platt

an aggressive and hard-driving game,

OFF FOR MORE MULES

Mr.. Charles F. Lawrence (Uncle

renee & Goode stables on Fort King
avenue. He is probably one of the
best posted live stock men in this Sec
ton of the state, having been in the
game for number of years, and his
vast experience has given him the
confidence of people who are buyers
of horses and mules.
Mr.. Lawrence only returned about
two weeks ago from a buying trip,
but his purchases of that time have
already been disposed of, as the de
mand far exceeded his anticipations.
Announcement of his return win be
