Golf Stars Gather
For Western Open
Title Tournament
Hutchison, Barnes, MacDon-
aid, Jones, Deige1 and
Many Others at Cleveland

CLEVELAND, Aug. .21,-One Of the
best fields that ever competed for the
Western open golf championship will
tee off in the qualifying round on
wednesday at the lakewood club hero,
The pairings Of 142 entrants were made
tonight, and it Is expected this num-
Der will be considerably augmented be-
fore the tournament gets under way
1t is classy as we'll as a heavy
field. No less than FIVE champions are
entered, as we'll as a host of other
stars. Jock Hutchison, holder of the
British title, who continues to plav
brilliant golf, is one Of the champions
aiming to add this prize to his list, and
II the flying Scotchman maintains the
pace he has been travelling since the
open championships at Washington he
Will take some beating.
JOCK Is paired with Mike Brady, the
crack Detroit professional, who was
Just beaten out for the Canadian open
title last month by W. H. Trovinger, of
Detroit. Trovinger also is entered, be-
ing one OF the five title holders listed.
Brady apparently is back on his game.
and, like Hutch has been PLAYING
exceptionally we'll the last several
weeks.
Both he and Trovinger, a new star
that promises to shine with great
luster, are sure to be in the running
all the way This pair tow-roped the
field at Canada and made the competi-
ton practically two-man issue.
Another who must be reckoned with
when it comes to distributing titles is
Long Jim Barnes, Of the Pelham Coun-
try Club, the American champion. Since
his overwhelming victory on the Column
bia Club links Barnes has been taking
things easily and has not played the
Kind OF golf Of which he is capable. But
the big fellow is the sort who needs
no conditioning nor training to get
back onto his game. He is coming to
Cleveland tomorrow with the intention
OF winning the Western title, if posi-
BILE, and he can be counted on to make
a strong bid for the prize.
1t will be interesting to see how
Barnes and Hutchison will compare in
this tournament. This will be the flrst
competition in which both have played
since they became champions
Then there is Bob Macdonald, the
long-driving Scot Of the Bobolink Club,
OF Chicago, who, after failing to
qualify in the National, won the metro
pol'tan championship against stellar
field: Big Bob is another who has been
playing well of late. He will play
around with Emmett French, the Amer
lean professional team captain.
Those two wonderful youngsters,
Bobby Jones, of Atlanta. and Leo Del
gel, OF Detroit, who accompanied each
other on the first two rounds in the
National meeting, are paired for the
first round here
