Capt. Bill Fownes, of Pittsburgh,
will have no gentle time of it build
ing up a strong preventative golf
team to take abroad this spring if
Chick" Evans and Francis Ouimet
are unable to make the trip.
The three best amateur golfers in
America undoubtedly are Evans,
Ouimet and Jones. To lose two of
the first three IN an invasion would
be a heavy blow.
Captain Fownes can still select a
first class team with Bobby Jones as
his. leading ace, but with not nearly
so good a chance of bringing back
the main trophy as he would have
had with Evans and Ouimet along.
1t might be suggested that Evans
and Ouimet made no great headway
in 1914 upon their last visit to Brit
ish soil. But 1914 and 1921 are sew
en- years apart. and Evans, at least,
has come far forward as a tourna-
ment player since that day.
Evans in 1914, had never won a
championship of note. Since 1914 he
has landed one open and two anna
teur championships and last year
was easily the best amateur in
America, and very possibly in the
world. Evans, Ouimet and Jones
were three of the four semifinalists,
with no one else able to stbp their
victorious marches.
The American Team.
n Evans and Ouimet are unable
to get away, what is the strongest
team that FOwnes can pick?
Bobby Jones will, of course, be a

be affected by his first visit to
strange and far away golfing scenes,
with changed golfing conditions, can
hardly be outlined here. But a golf
er with his variety of strokes and
his strong match play temperament
is almost sure to do we'll.
If Bob Gardner can get away he
will be another formidable entry.
Gardner has won two United States
championships and in addition has
been runner-up over here and in the
British title splash. Given the op-
portuntty to get in bit of golf, he
Is one of the best match players
now in the game. His experience
last summer will be invaluable also
when he carried Tolley to the
thirty-seventh green in the final
round.
Dave Heron, the 1919 champion,
will be another strong member of
the team. Heron was eliminated by
Woodie Platt last September, but
he is a good fighter and capable of
first class golf.
After these. among those who
have been mentioned. come Max
Marston, Reggie Lewis and Nelson
whitney, with Bill Fownes himself
to be considered. BE-
Fownes will be~one of the hardest
men in the field to beat for the first
few matches. But carrying through
two eighteen-hole matches a day
for an entire week may be beyond
his physical ability. But, no golfer
who faces him on any of the first
three days viii hnd an easy oppon-
ent to overthrow.
Among the other good ones who
The Washington herald., 1921-02-20

may or may not be able to get
away are Jesse Guilford, Oswald
Kirkby, J. Wood Platt, Jesse Sweet
ser, Fred Wright and several 9TH
ers listed among the leaders.
If Fowncs had been able to count
upon Evans and Ouimet he would
probably have held his team to the
six strongest men in sight. But If
these two must be eliminated he
may try to make up in quantity
for the loss of equality as brought
about by the absence of two such
players.
There are many golfers over here
who compare very favorably with
Tolley, Armour, Wethered and Hope.
the four British amateurs who came
over last September.
These four will be better in home
surroundings, much stronger golf
ers than they looked to be over
here, where Armour was the only
one of the four to qualify, And la
ter on Armour was beaten. repeated
ly in many tournaments. although
he is rated as one of the best of
the British amateurs. 1t was Ar
mour's opinion upon his arrival
back home that British golf had
little to fear from any American
invasion, but this statement doesn't
seem to be in strict accord with the
developments of the last year.
After Seventeen Years.
1t will be seventeen years I'M
coming June since Walter J. Travis
won his British title and no Ameri-
can golfer has ever repeated since.
Travers and Evans each failed
twice to make any notable head
way. Ouimet failed to get very far
on his lone attempt. The best show
ing since was made by Heini,
Schmidt in 1913, when he carriel
Harold Hilton an extra hole in the
sixth round, and by Bob Gardner,
just year, ago. when he reached
the final and then faltered badly oh
the greens.
Even If Evans and Ouimet fail to
make the trip, there is still a strong
chance that one from a team com.
posed of Jones, Gardner, Heron,
Fownes, Marston, Lewis, whitney.
etc. may turn the trick.
They will find plenty of competi-
ton from Tolley, wethered, Mich
ael Scott, Hope, Armour, Jenkins
and a few more, but it will hardly
be up to the competition offered in
the days of Hilton and Ball. Hilton
over his home course at Holyoke
may still be a strong candidate, but
IL is hardly probable that he can
stand the strain of lasting out
week, as he is now far from being
any mere youth. ~.
Bill Fownes, being a constructive
and tireless worker. can be counted
upon to get the best available team
ready for the trip. 1t may mot in
clude every great golfer in the
country, but it will surely include
every good one who can get away
At least lit will be no haphazard
venture.

the present year the county court has
been Democratic. Notwithstanding
the enormous expense account that
must be looked after in this county,
the Democratic court not only liqui-
dated such deficit, but has accom-
plished more in every line of devel-
opment and progress than perhaps
any other court the county has ever
had.
Mnch splendid and expensive road
machinery has been purchased during
the past four years, 80 that the coun-
ty is now abundantly equipped for the
carrying on of such important work
Neither has the county court been the
least penurious in helping along any
meritorious work. The court has
never failed to meet any community
more than half way in contributions
to good road work, bridges, etc. The
record the outgoing county court has
made should serve not only as pace
maker, but as an inspiration as we'll, to
the present and succeeding county
courts.

The Times is sorry to note that
State Auditor Hackman is out in a
statement which, If not absolutely un-
true, is filed with errors. judging
from the rank in which he has placed
st. Francois county. Such errors or
falsehoods are likely to be in the fig

counties referred to as in those con-
cerning st. Francois county.
For State Auditor Hackman's in

formation, the Times will state thai
st. Francois county has no deficit
Before the present month shall have
passed all outstanding county war
rants will have been called for. This
has not always been true, however
and since the State Auditor is doubt
less attempting to make political cap

draw a little political comparison

Judgment, and as matter of con-
science, to respect the prohibition
law in the same sense that he respects
the Constitution and the flag, is going
a trife too far. We can obey a law
and we can comply with the most
absurd legal requirements without
making the statute part of our re-
ligious creed. To ask that is asking
too much. 1t reminds us of the
mediaeval gentleman who placed his
hat on the top of pole and required
the peasantry to salute it as they
passed by. The denial of the prlnci-
Pile of human liberty, the impudent,

George Sylvester Viereck, however,

conference of German Americans in
Chicago for the purpose of demand
ing that a German American, as
racial representative of Americans of
German origin, shall be appointed to
a place in the Cabinet of Mr.. Harding
when he takes office. He insists that
this is fair return for the delivery
of G, 100000 German American votes
to the Republican party, and that If
their demand is not satisfied the
political solidarity of German -Ameri-
cans will be maintained for the pur-
pose of forcing recognition of the
claims of the German race for rep
resentation in the Government of the
United States.
But if German Americans, as such,
are to be recognized and represented
in our Government, why not Italian
Americans and Irish Americans and
other Americans of foreign origin?
