White Sulphur Springs, w. Va,
Sept. 30.-It looks like youths year
in golf. Miss Glenna Collect, the
young Providence, r. l., player, ap-
parently is near to victory in the
women's national championship,
and if she annexes this title, youth
will have swept everything before
it in golf this year. Jess Sweetzer
at 20 won the national amateur
title and Gene Sarazen at 2f took
the national open championship.
Miss Collect, if she wins from Mrs.
A. Gavin, will lead the youthful
contenders, as she is but 10.
The experts and the so-called
wise bettors backed Glenna heav-
lily to defeat Mrs. Gavin in the final
round, giving as high as 2 to on
her chances of victory over her ex-
perienced opponent Mrs. Gavin
has fine short game which is es-
pecially valuable over this course,
as she makes up for the shortness
of her tee shots by the bounce and
long roll which the hard fairways
here permit.
Mrs. Gavin was woefully out
driven from the tee Friday and
bettors considered that the only
question at issue was whether the
English woman could outplay Miss
Collett around the green to such
an extent as to eQualize this handi-
cap.

New York, Sept. 30.-The New
York State Boxing Commission did
an excellent job when they decreed
that Senegalese Sikh, must fight his
way to bout with Harry Wills and
then Jack Dempsey.
Announcement today that Sikh
must meet Kid Norfolk first wke..
he comes to these shores caused
general satisfaction. AS pointed
out several days ago in this column,
Norfolk is Skis logical first trench.
That lakeland he won't have such
an awfully easy time-the French
colonialist probably will be
matched with another one or two
of the best black light heavyweights
and after that Harry Greb fight
may be licensed despite feeling
against a mixed bout. When Silk
has gone that far it will be time
then to talk Wills or Dempsey.
i Wills Easy With Johnson,
Wills doesn't wear as much pres.
tige on his brow today as he die

New York Teams Are Fairly Well
Matched in Outfield Department;
Meusel Compared With Babe Ruth

fact that he is one of the best out
fielders in baseh today up to
every limit of his physical possibil-
tiles. He may be little older thar
he was but y does not seem to have
hurt his batting eye, especially as
he is having the time of his life
batting against weak pitchers. AS
fielder he has long ranked as one
of the leading players Of the game
when it comes to playing for bat
tiers. The great trouble with STEM
gel was that his merit was over
looked too often in the past by
managers who should have realized
! his value to a team. If too many
had not thought him a clown he
!! would have been classed with the
great outfielders of baseball. He
| will try until his legs give out un-
! derneath him.
Witt is a fair ball player. Posi-
bly, better than a fair ball player
but he is not great ball player
He is not likely to be because he is
too far along.
Cunningham, who will Play wne1
Stengel does not. is about of the
type of Witt. possibly not quite SO
good because he lacks experience
but gritty player who must not
be overlooked
In right Young is better than
Bob Meusel. The latter has no end
of physical ability to play the out
field and a throwing arm that is as
! deadly as that Of Kelly, the giants
first baseman. Young is faster
than Meusel and more likely to
make sensational catches because
he plays the ball better. He read
fly hits more accurately than Mcu-
sci.
There has been much stress laid
on the fact that the Giants outfiald
has batted better than that of the
Yankees this year. Admitting thai
to be true it is not good policy tc
keep awakening hits and gloai
. over it. The Giants haven't seen
as good pitching as the Yankees
have seen.

New York, Sept. 30.-On the rec
ords of today-botn those thot
show on the score sheets and those
that only show on the field-Giarts
and Yankees are pretty evenly
matched in the outfield. Not a
great deal of choice exists in the
field when considering possibilities
for the worlds series.
Take left field for instance. Ruth
and Meusel are about on par. For
industrious effort Ruth is possibly
to be more commended than Men,
sci but things haven't broken jus:
right for Ruth this year and the
problem before him is whether he
can rise out of the haze in which
he has been floating to the clear
sky.
His fielding in the series Of 1921
was good on the whole. He threw
better than Heusel and he ran bet
ter than Meusel. He did not bal
quite as well as Meusel but in con-
nection with that it must not be
forgotten that he was handicapped
with an ailing arm. He was more
of a cheer leader to his team than
Meusel but he is that all OF the sea
son if his digestion is right.
Either Of these players is likely
to fall down on a play after a long
run but Ruth is dangerous on any
long run where he crosses The
