The answer which the historic sward
of the Hoylake golf course had to di-
vulge to an anxious populace on the
question of the new British amateur
champion, and, incidentally, to the
query as to how far along America
has travelled toward arriving at a SUI
premacy over our British cousins, has
by now been somewhat asslmiated,
and at least the more rigorous effects
of the shock have had time TO wear
away.
Like the parrot in the fable we can
at least sit up now and inquire where
the rest of the folks were when the
cyclone passed For the effect Of the
debacle at Hoylake was cyclonic IN it's
proportions, to say the least And this
applies not only to our own stars, but
to the supposedly topnotchers of the
British ranks as we'll.
Just how utterly the grand old dope
was shot to shreds may be realized
from the fact that of the seven Brit
ish players in the last eight of the
pionship-Fr Wright was the
good enough in advance to draw non-
ination for the British team in the in
ternational matches. Furthermore, of
the eight players who made up the last
eight last year, only Hunter, this years
winner, was on hand, and he was beat
en- at Muirfeld in the seventh round,
so that none of last years semi final
lists were on hand at that stage of play
this year.
Britain Was Frightened
There is no doubt that Britain
entered this championship with a feel
ing akin to fear and trembling. We
know one British golfer, who has been
for the past few years in the States,
but who came over recently enough to
feel that he knew pretty well what
Britain had to offer by way of defense.
who. sizing up the chances of the
sailed, remarked that he hoped, OF
course, his countrymen would come
through. but that he held out little
hope, inded.
And what he felt was just about the
impression gathered in talking with
experts and critics as the field began to
make ready for the BIG ordeal When
ToIley, a practical unknown. came
through to stave off the brllilant chal-
lenge of Robert A. Gardner at Muir
field last wear. his performance was ap-
plauded loudly and feelingly, but at
the same time it was admitted that
his winning meant nothing more than
cashing in on an extremely long shot,
good golfer that he was and is. 1t was
hardly to be expected that another
unknown would break through. And,
in the light of his showing at the En-
gineera along with Lord Hope, Weth-
cred and Armour, it did not appear
that Tolley was equal to the job of
tuning back the big Amerisaa assault
pur britain reckoned without re-
serve. of which she appeared to be en-
tirely forgetful. wherein lies what
would seem to be the best explanation
of the topsy -turvy outcome Of the big
imbroglio at Hoylake. The result of

this tournament, considering the unex-
pected defeats of Evans, Ouimet, Jones'
Tolley, Simpson, Holderness, Wethered
and other stars, indicates quite plainly
that there are in England and Scot
land hundreds and thousands of very
good golfers who claim but a scanty
ray, if, indeed, any at all, of the golf
ing spotlight.
The game is quite a few years older
in England and Scotland than it is in
America, which doesn't mean the an
tiquated game with the old feather
ball and clubs that resemble a coun-
try urchin's Skinny" implements, but
more even approach to golf of to-day.
There are thousands and thousands of
players in England and Scotland who
learned the game as boys, much the
same as youngsters in the United
States learn to play baseball
And just as very meager percent
age ever becomes known as ballplayers
in the States, so but few of these lads
ever gain any prominence in golfing
circles abroad But whereas the
American youth practically gives up
baseball, so far as actively playing it is
concerned, when he quits school, these
chaps go right on playing golf, be
cause they love and enjoy the game.
Artisan golfers, they are called. Maybe
they are clerks, or mechanics, or fol-
low any one of hundred and more vo-
casions vet they find time to play a
lot of golf, and do play it.
Championship Essentials
There is more to winning champion
ships, however, than mere mechanical
proficiency, quite a good deal more.
Competitive temperament, the ability
to deliver the best under trying cir
cumstances, call it whatever you like,
there is a something, quite fre-
quently referred to as class, necessary
in beating a path through a great field
OF skillful players to stand alone as
the sole survivor at the end
Not all of this great list of un-
knowns measure up to championship
requirements The number is, indeed,
very, very small. Bat from out the
big army of players who follow, the
game in theiI own quiet way ever and
anon comes one who combines the re-
quirements necessary in championship
timber. and then the golfing world is
introduced to Hunter or his like.
Hunters elevation to the pedestal
formerly adorned by Ball, Hilton, TAFT
and others is a tribute to one aspect
of golf in which conditions of the game
in England and Scotland differ wide
ly from those in America the cost.
The financial outlay to play golf there
need be but inconsiderable. 1t is a
game we'll within range of all. There
in lies the success of developing the
urknowns who rally to the cause when
British supremacy on the links is
threatened. And until the game has
been brought down within the reach
of all in America2 the Britons will con-
tinue to enter the list with an ace in
the hole, a reserve we'll qualified to
step into the breach when the better
known first line player begins to waver
under foreign attack.

MAR Defeats
Hale for Links
Title Of Jersey
Golf Rivals Make Little
Use of Pathways in Their
Battle for State Honors
By Ray Mccarthy

c. Mair and ]. E. Hale, long hitte-s
of the Shackamaxon and Upper MORT
clair golf clubs. respectively, IN their
struggle for the New Jersey state ANA
teur golf championship at the Canoe
Brook Country Club yesterday. made
little use of the fairways in playing
their round. Mair, being on this more
often than his opponent, was able to
defeat Hale by the lop-sided score OF
s UP and Z to play. For champions

two was q struggle indeed
Both played TO the green on most ef
the holes via the rough, the tall uncut,
the trees and other non essentials thas
rim the fairways Of golf course.
With the larruping Upper Montclair
performer it was mostly a case of
wild hook to the rough one moment.

beautiful recovery to get back on the
main line.
The gallery spent most of the time
parading down the middle lane. whence
1t could view the melee, but the cog5-
testants put in hayd day of II dig
glng their way through the long grass.
Players Show Stamina
The remarkable part of the game
was that each was able TO score as
well as he did. The scores speak we'll
for the beef and brawn and strength
OF these two warriors. Others would
have succumbed long before the second
round was ended if they had to strug-
gle as hard.
Mair is reputeG to have. been a
former baseball star, but like other
diamond performers found the lure OF
golf too strong to resist. He is prac-
tically beginner and this was his
first tournament. Whenever the Shack
amazon player noticed his opponent
whale one Of his long drives he could
not resist the temptation to turn the
right wrist under, baseball style, the
better to take a harder swing at the pill.
The result generally Was decided
hook that swept out to the rough in a
long graceful curve, That accounts for
much of the hooking
Hale Not Outclassed
One would think by the score Hale
was badly 'outclassed But the fact is
he lost many of the holes by not being
quite up there with Mair. One little
slip on each of the holes he lost cost
him heavily
Hale is responsible in every way for
Upper Montclair losing the champion
ship. On Friday, playing in perfect
form, he eliminated two of his club
mates, William Reekie. the title-holder,
and jerry Travers, but yesterday he
was beaten himself,
In the morning Mair got a flying
start on his man and playing quite
steadily, while Hale was exploring the
course to its utmost depths. made the
turn up, being out in 81 to Hale,
Al. Parallel fairways helped Hale ma
terially to keep in the running coming
in. At the end of the morning round
he was down and though he played
gamely and managed to hold his own
in the afternoon he was too far behind
to stage any comeback. The cards
were as follows:
