With play in the open golf cham
pionship Of the United States now
in progress at Skokie, our interest
is turned for the moment toward
England, where the personnel Of
the amateur team which will meet
an American amateur team on the
national links, in the later sum-
mer, has just been announced. OF
chief interest is the fact that
Ernest Carter and W. j. Hunter
have not been invited by the cham
pionship committee to be members
of the invading team. although by
every canon of playing ability they
should have been.
The reason appears to be that
Carter's association with a we'll
known golf ball firm and Hunters
interest in an agency of British
firm in America, which is said to
deal in sporting goods, caused the
committeeman to decide that it
were better to have England repre-
sented in this first Anglo-American
amateur team match by men con-
corning whom there could not be
the slightest technical point raise.l
as to their amateur standing.
OF the players named, the selec-
ton Of John Caven, Cochrane Cas-
tie; C. C. Aylmer, Ranelagh; Cyril
Tolley, Royal and Ancient; Roger
Wethered, Royal and Ancient, was
looked upon as a foregone con-
clusion. Willis Mackenzie of. Nor
ton Hall did very we'll indeed in
the amateur tournament at Prest
wick but until this year was un-
known. Robert Harris, Of the Roy
al and Ancient and w. B. Torrance
Edinburgh Burgess. have sufficient
prestige to warrant inclusion Of
their names on the team but the
placing of C. V. L. Hoomano OF
Durham and Borrow was indeed q
surprise. British golfers feel thai
the leaving out of Carter and Hun
ter may work disastrously.

GAMES TOMORROW.
Rock Island at Dubuque.
Cedar Rapids at Waterloo.
Ottumwa at MarShalltOwn.

Many fans who Witnessed yes.
terday's games were of the inn
preston that the second game
stood as a victory for Dubuque
because four and one-half in.
nings had been played before the
rain began to fall SO heavily that
Umpire Magerkurth was obliged
to call a halt.
As a matter Of fact, the home
team is always entitled to its last
time at bat, providing such is
needed, and in this case Rock
Island was behind and entitled to
their bat In the fifth inning.
Four and one-half innings do not
complete a game unless the home
team is ahead 1T that stage.
Therefore the second game oil
stands as no contest and
will have to be played over. The
rain. which had threatened slightly
the proceeding inning, opened VI
just as Councilman took his stand
at the plate to start the last half Of
the fifth inning. Jim got one swing
at the ball before Jumps Mayer.
kurth held up his hand and ther
dashed for shelter.
Dubuque was leading, 5 to I,
having scored four runs in the
third and one in the first. The Is.
landers' lone tally came I'm the
second inning, McAreavy, who
was on the mound for thu visi.
tors, was much more effective
than his mates in the first game.
In the four innings the Islanders
were able to solve him for only
two hits.
