Chief among her rivals is Mrs.
May Sutton Bundy, who won the
championship In 1904 and made a

a match that will long be remem.

contests in the annals Of women's

FRED ToNEY SPILLS BEANs
IN GIANT SIGNAL SYSTEM

Getting wise to another clubs sig.
mails often is the result Of an accident.
For instance. the New York Giants
had a system Of signals they depend.
ed on figures on the score board. We
will say that IL certain score board
figures were "even" then a finger
sign meant to do this or that. II the
figures on the score board were
odd" then the finger sign might
mean just the contrary. It. all de-
pended; John McGraw watched the
score board and wiggied his fingers
accordingly.
In a certain game between Giants
and Braves, Fred Mitchell was coach.
ing on the lines, a certain play was
signaled for by McGraw and Fred
Toney balled II up. Two New York
players met within Mitchell's hear.
ing at third base and one said to
the other:
''Toney spilled the beans because
he can't read the score board: hell,
he don't know odd from, even"
"And So" figured Mr.. Mitchell.
that's the system. We shall work
this out. II the figures are odd It's
30 and so and II even 80 and So"
And the rest, basing calculations
on plays attempted or made, was
easy.

HAL JANvRIN HOLDS UP
DEAL FOR RED SHANNON

Maurice shannon. the infielder.
who was traded from the Columbus
club OF the American Association TO
the Brookiyns for Hal Janvrin, has
not yet left the minor league team.
A decision made by Judge Lands
is holding up the transaction.
Lands notified Janvfin that he
was a ten.year man and therefore
entitled to his unconditional re.
lease. President Heydler. OF the
National League. however, differs
with Lands and has informed the
Robins that Janvrin has not been
iE the major leagues ten years.
When Janvrin heard from Judge
Lands he went to his home In
Boston because he did not want to
report to Columbus. Shannon win
not leave Columbus until Janvrin re-
ports there.

While scratching our private
collection Of hives in the Ritz the
other day the question came up as
to whether Ed Wynn had more
hats than Will Rogers has ropes,
and one of the lunatics dared US to
pose in a different hat each day.
Nobody In our family ever took
a dare since grandpap climbed up
on the hog pen and had all OF his
toes eaten off.
This piece OF nonsense may cost
a few generous clouts on the jowf
before Il is ended. but after all
what IL a bust In the jaw more or
less among friends when nobody Ia
sober.
After inspecting ALCOHOL's
best hat abattoirs and sampling all
OF the headgear from the sun-bon-
nets to the hangman's moose we
are undecided whether to 80 On
with the bet or make written ap-
plication for rront-row resera-
ton in ALCoHoL'S open-air ceme-
terry.
The 1920 census shows very In
distinctly that there are $4,000, 900
different models OF fancy and
staple hats worn by nineteen dif.,
ferent nations on formal and un-
avoidable occasions.
After n thorough tour Of the best
authorities, IL Is beginning TO look
like hats are an inexhaustable sub
ject of no consequence whatever.
Tomorrow we will publish another
exclusive hat interview, thereby
aiding and abetting this foolish
bonnet marathon.

Sarasen's achievement IL particu-
larly noteworthy because OF the hint
II gives Of the democracy of golf to-
,, day. after several centuries Of the
development of the. game. Golf Is
spreading in favor In South America,
In China and Japan. We can hope
that Sarazen's victory may be follow
ed In time by a player from one OF
these far away fields capturing the
American title. which now Is deemed
to be the worlds championship In
golf.
Sarazen was practically an un-
known factor in golf when he appear
ed at the Hkokie course. He had
impressed the country's leading play
ers by his game In the south last
winter. He won a title at New Or.
leans and brought fast game to
-Pinehurst during the late winter, but
as whole he skipped the ''boy won
der" period through which he should
have passed, according to precedent.
The only near parallel ne has Ii
In Francis Quimet, who jumped out
Of comparative obscurify and down.
ed Harry Vardon and Ted Ray,
the British stars, for the American
open championship In 1918. Oui-
met tied the English players, then
won In the play-off. Saraxen, at
Skokie, whacIked out q cIean-cut
victory, and he did 30 against \
field OF competition that was the
best the world could produce.
Sarazen was q caddy at Fort
Wayne, Ind. and the impression is
that he was a native OF Indiana be-
fore his parents moved east. He ap-
peared again as a caddy at New
York clubs and quickly developed a
superb game. He took up the game
professionally because he had cad
died after he was 16 year old.
He looks a great deal like Walter
Hagen, though not so tall as Haken.
But what he lacks in height In made
up in sturdiness. Sarazen Is no light
weight champion, however much hia
youth may indicate that he is a mere
boy.
His playing has developed a won
derful physique for him, and he
seems to have everything required
OF a champion, physically. to insure
his being a factor in golf for years
sarazen takes a firmer, sturdier
stance than IL the case with others
who have been developed by Scotch
instructors. Sarazen has divided
his allegiance between golf and base
| ball, the baseball influence IL present
in his game. He has vardon's grace
in swinging. with plain tinge oi
Babe Rnth's force at bat. have
never beheld q style just like 1t.
L know Of no other golfer who
plays the game 50 firmly and yet
who touches mp his play with such
grace. Saraxen, the italian, real
ly has given us q new gOlfIng

! he winds up his body. he makes a
/ spring Of II. which releases his club
head with a speed OF motion that
suggests a bullet. He has Hagen's
manner OF dropping his right knee
inward a trifle. in which position he
holds II during his swing. This
apparently gives him more leverage
more force. against the ball when

/ II In a fine thing for American
golf that this youth has become our
champion. He has added something
