Still one carnot get away from the fact thas Walter Travis is the only American who ever came through in England Something seems to happen to our men when they get over there Either they fall down or else some remarkable performance by Britisher puts them out. Excellence in this country in- variably leads to hopes that wither and die the moment the rugged salt air of the British links strikes them.
 INTERESTING GOLF
 But We are going to have some i'm teresting golf on this side of the water. too, in the visit of Duncan and Abe Mitchell. English critics do not regard this pair as highly as the Var don-Ray combination, which was here last year, and they are probably right, so far as sheer steadiness and aver age performance is concerned. But just the same, our golfers will enjoy seeing the two professionals in ac- tion. Both of them are really brilliant performers. Mitchell is a beautifully consistent long driver and Duncans quick, snappy style is very attractive to those who follow him.
 The Columbia golf course is shap- ing up splendfdly fsr the American open championship. The turf is com ing on we'll, the new holes are work ing into condition. Exclusively dry weather might make the green Aof the second hole tremendously difficult, for it bakes hard and is an extremely treacherous pitch; a high ball is likely to get bound which is disconcerting The links, however, offer many op- portunities for spectators. and no doubt a large gallery will find the championship play well worth watch ing, not only because of it's interna- tional character but of the character of the course itself.
