boys as victors were conspicuous by
their absence. Harold H. Hilton, the
noted amateur, did win. the title over
his own links, at HoylaRe, in 1897, but
Hilton was an amateur.
Of the amateurs in England who
have made the attempt three were sue
cessful. They were John Ball jr., l..
Balfour Melville and Robert Maxwell.
II cidentally, it is strange coincidence
that Ball and Maxwell won the cham
pionship twice in this manner. In 1890
Ball, playing over his own course at
Holyake, was victorious and again in
1894 he succeeded in winning the cup.
Maxwell won his. first national cham
pionship in 1903 over his own course
at Muirfield. Six years passed and
when the meet was returned to Muir
field in 1909 Maxwell again stepped out
and captured the honors. Melville, who
belonged to the St. Andrews club, won
the title when the tourney was held
there in 1895.
Thus it can be seen that if Mcleod
does win the national title this year
he will have to overcome all precedent
and tradition of thirty years standing.
However, his friends and admirers
and particularly all of the members Of
the Columbia Country Club are conf
dent he .can and will succeed in doing
what no other professional since 1890
has been able to do.
Mcleod is one of those golfers who,
like wine, seem to grow better with
age. This midget, he is only little
over five feet in height and weighs
hardly more than one hundred pounds,
is one of the grandest, gamest and
most finished performers that ever
,,IouaJ tho game
He has competed in open champion
ship tournaments held in this country
and in eleven of the eighteen he has
managed to finish in the money. In
1908, playing over the Myopia Hunt
club course, he won the title in play
off with Willie Smith.
Mcleod is marvel to watch. He
wastes no time or energy in playing
his shots. He simply takes his stance,
poises for an instant and lets drive.
He is one of the fastest playing pro-
fessionals in the country. To keep pace
with him one must walk briskly the
whole time.

Tigers i'm Extra
Period, 80 to Is

PRINCETON, N. j., Feb 26.-It took
an extra period here tonight for Yale
barely to defeat Princeton in basket
ball by 80 to % score The Tigers
held the long end Of IL to 8 at the end
OF the first half, but this had become
% to % when the second half ended,
and the Ellis gained the decision at the
end of the game through the work of
Adams, who bagged three field baskets
in the extra period.
The playing of Legendre, of the
Tigers, and Alderman, Of Yale, featured
the entire contest, both being the
main scoring reliance of their teams
The guarding on both sides was rather
loose throughout the entire contest.
Yale.
Yale staged surprise by drawing
first blood in the game on foul toss
by Alderman, followed quickly by side
shot by Adams, the only field goal
garnered by the Blue during the entire
first half. Another foul point made
the count four before Princeton start
ed an avalanche of long and short
throws from the field, four out Of the
five Tiger players bagging scores. To-
ward the end of the half Alderman had
cut this to a Princeton lead of II to 8
with his consistent foul shooting.
The Ellis staged comeback as the
second half began, a foul toss and a
shot from just beneath the basket by
Keck tying the score at 11-all. The
advantage ran from one side to the
other during the entire first half. with
Alderman, of Yale, and Legendre, of
Princeton, keeping their respective
teams in the running.
The extra period also was bitterly
fought, but the work of Adams, with
three field goals to his credit during
the five minutes, decided the game.

1t has been our pleasant privilege to
share with the public the many
splendid tributes that have been paid
to Cadillac since the beginning.
We have taken just pride in the
long succession of official and pop
ular testimonials to the Cadillac's
engineering excellence, its fine
mechanical construction and its
dependable performance.
Our friends the world over have
rejoiced with us in celebrating the
remarkable honors that have been
conferred on Cadillac, particularly
during the last three years.
Cadillac owners would be less than
human if they did not partake of
our sense of satisfaction over the
appointment of Cadillac as the
Standard Seven Passenger Car of
the United States Army the
greatest official tribute ever paid to
any automobile.
And Americans in general shared
our pride in the most recent COM
pliment to Cadillac,-its character
ization by noted English motor
authority as more closely approach
ing the ideal (of perfection) than
any other car on the market today,
regardless of price or size.''
But, impressive and significant as
these testimonials are, we feel that a
more impressive and more significant
tribute has been paid to the Cadillac
during the last three years, by the
worlds buyers of high-grade
motor cars.
OF the tq0elve makes Of automobiles
selling at the Cadillac price ard
higher, Cadillac zoas chosen by one
third more people than all the elevess
others combined.

had we been able to manufacture all
the Cadillac cars the world wanted,
is merely conjectural.
1t is well-known fact that many
persons who wanted Cadillacs,
bought some other make Of car
because they could not get prompt
delivery of Cadillac.
The fact is that when it was possible
to get a Cadillac, nothing else
would suffice; the public was un-
willing TO accept any substitute for
Cadillac dependability.
This was strikingly exemplihed dur
ing the last three months of 1920,
when our production began to
approximate the demand.
During those three months, Cadillac
sales leaped to a figure 1870 greater
thass the eIesess other sssakes COM
bissed.
We are grateful to the public for
this unparalleled tribute to Cadillac.
and we are fully conscious of the
responsibility which it entails.
We pledge ourselves again to 90
on building, better and better,
Cadillac that can be depended upon
to do all the things an automobile
is intended to do; do them better
than any other Car, regardless OF
price or size; and continue to do
them for longer period, without
any nursing, coaxing or petting.
It is our resolve to continue to
build the Cadillac In such manner
that it shall grow more and more
worthy of the wonderful allegiance
Of Cadillac owners.

in 1915 the farmers OF that State be-

state government TO put into prac-

would benefit them. In particular
they wanted the State 10 undertake
the erection and operation OF grain
elevators and markets, where the
farmers could bring their grain.
They thought they could sell their
wheat and corn to the State eleva-
tors at higher price than they were
disposing OF Il. because the profits
that the elevator men now get would
be cut out.
