DRIVE ITS BEAT ACIPCO NINE AND WINS IN CENTRAL

 pany aud DrIye-It-Y oursclf
 meets the winner. The first game
 will begin at 2,tS o'clock.
 Goodbee's single in the eleventh in- ming, which scored Wyatt ahead of him, not only caused the Drive-It- Yourself team to beat Acipico by a score of to 1, but also proved to be the termination of the best game of baseball that has been staged by City league teams in many moons. From the beginning until the end of this titanic struggle, the battle was noth- ing but a pitchers duel with Big Boy Ardis doing the hurling for the winners and Herman singing the pill for the Acipco team. It should be said for all time that MT. Herman de- serves as much credit for the battle he waged as does Ardis, the victor. There were four errors made, but they were not due to faulty playing, but to the fighting spirit with which every man on both teams went after chances that seemed impossible. Ardis starts Strong
 The first inning started with Acip- GO first at the bat and MT. Ardis go- ink like the proverbial house afire, retiring Fuqua, Vineyard and Am- prose all in row. Herman started his game off by walking Coldstein, but he soon frightened and retired the side without any damage being done to the game in the first inning.
 The second inning was IS free from runs and as tight as the first inning, but in the third a hit by Nash, coupled with an error by Wyatt en- abled the Pipe Makers" to score one run and the count was 1 to at the end of the third canto.
 After the third, the Drive-fts showed no inclination to give up any more runs, but in the fifth Goodbee got busy with the old willow and soaked out & wobagger and scored when Herman walked Ardis and al- lowed Goldstein to single.

Barnes Leads Golf
 Players On First
 Day Of Title Play
TRepubIican A. P. Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, July 21-James M. Barnes, the professional from the Pelham Country Club led an excep- tionally high class field of golfers with a score of IA strokes at the close of the first day of the twenty sixth national open golf champion ship over the course of the Columbia country club.
 Barnes score for the full 36 holes showed an average of one stroke over par for each nine holes, or a total of four over par for the days play. His IA was also, three under the score of the first days card turned in by Ted Ray of England. winner of the 1920 championship. The diff ference was partly due to the shorter yardage of the local course as com pared with the Inverness course at Toledo.
 Four strokes back of Barnes came Charles R. Murray of the Royal Golf club of Montreal, and Fred Mcleod. the local club professional, who tied with a score of 14S. Fourth place was held by Robert T. Jones, Jr.. of Atlanta. The youthful southern amateur With his l49 led four con
 testants in the 150 class. after which
 the field aligned itself in groups
 ranging in numerical oIder from 151 IAAddC ty N@lctA tto AdHS VI tiit l<tt,C water club of Chicago. national anna teur champion, to Jim Donnachie with a total of 181.
 Long Jim Barnes is playing his way to what is generally considered
 a commanding position in the strug
 gle for the championship, and today showed a brand of almost perfect golf. But he must maintain the same
 high standard tomorrow in order te make sure of the prize. Never in his titular hunt for an open champion ship has he led at the end of St holes.
 Due to an unverified score on one l of the holes, Barnes position this af- | ternoon was jeopardized. The United 1 States Golf association committee l ruled that he was not in any way | to blame for the slight infraction oi 1 the rules and merely added an addi- | tional stroke to his score.
