deniably with this country.
In the British open championship at
Sandwich the American professionals
drove several more spikes into foreign
prestige. The year before Jock Hutchi-
son had wrested the crown from the
head OF the defending experts. This
time Walter Hagen led the field and
the home bred was followed closely by
Hutchison and Jim Barnes. But for
highly spectacular round of 50 on the
part OF George Duncan these American
representatives would have finished one
two. three. Duncan's spurt enabled him
to tie for second place.
Closely following the British cham
pionship came the American open title
event at Skokie and In this the race
was much more exciting than In the
tournament of the previous year. Inter-
est In the last round centered chiefly, In
Bobby Jones, the amateur; John Black.
the veteran California professional !:
Walter Hagen and Willie Meihom of
Shreveport But one after the other of
these faded from the picture after Gene
Sarazen. 21 years old and former
ApawamIs caddie. set the mark for the
seventy-two holes with 68 for his last
round
Sarazen later on won the professional
championship as well, defeating Emmett
French in the final after an earlier VIC
tory over Hutchison.
That very desirable International ele-
ment was brought into the open cham
pionship with the entry of George Dun
can and Abe Mitchell. II was present
again In the national amateur cham
pionship when practically all of the
British team sent over for the Walker
Cup matches at the national links COM
peted. Jess Sweetser was the victor at
Brookiine, his success being the result
OF some Of the most brilliant golf ever
seen In the classic and string OF sue
cesses over some of the greatest players
In the game.
Among those defeated by sweetser
were william /. Hunter, former British
champion Jesse Guilford, the American
holder Bobby Jones and Chick Evans.

the British team. This player was de-

Boxing

Pugiism during the year 1922 was
almost entirely lacking i'm the spectacu-
lar features that characterized II in the
preceding twelve months This was due
largely to the enforced idleness OF Jack

there arose a possibility of the cham
pion meeting Harry Wills in title con-
test. but this was quickly blotted out
by political campaign. Real opposi-
tion for Dempsey stIll Is negligible in
quantity and quality. Harry Wills is
the only boxer that at present would
be accepted by the public as having a
chance with Dempsey. and the champion
would be strong favorite over the
negro.

Billiards

During the year 1922 there has been
more activity in professional and anna
tour billiards than for seven preceding
years. There have been two champion
ship matches and tournament for
world honors at 1872 balkline between
professionals, series Of contests In
volving championships between profess
slonal pocket and three cushion experts,
national and international competitions
between amateurs at 1872 balkline. also
titular pocket and three cushion events
contested by amateurs.
When the year began the major pro-
fcssiouai championships were held by
Jacob Schaefer. E. Ralph Greenleaf and
John Layton. After having defeated
William +. Hoppe and Welker Cochran
in challenge matches for the so balk-
line title. with n view TO bringing about
n tournament in the fall, Schaefer re-
signed his championship. Greenleaf and
Layton survived. Indicated. they be-
came the owners of the emblems they
tentatively held Among the amateur
champions the lone survivor was J..
Howard Shoemaker. who for the ninth
consecutive time won premier pocket
honors

ment for the championship Of the world

Baseball

For the second successive year New
York was highly fortunate in baseball.
The Giants and the Yankees both re-
peated their successes of 1921 and again
the National League club defeated its
American League rival in the world
series, four victories TO none, with one
contest a tie. Brooklyn fell from grace
and finished sixth.
The season saw many individual and
team records. startling feats in the field
and with the bat. In the National
League Rogers Hornsby not only won
the batting championship again with an
average OF .401 but hit forty-two home
runs. IN the American League the title
again was won by George Sisler with
an average of .419. Sisler stole fifty
one bases. Babe Roth lost the home
run crown TO Ken Williams of the
Browns. who hit thirty-nine four baggers
against thirty-five for the Babe, who
was out of the game under suspension
until May 10.
In the American League the outstand-
ing pitcher was Red Faber. with Rom
mel OF the Athletics and Bush OF the
Yankees in close attendance. In the
National League Pat Donahue of the
Reds, Bill Ryan of the Giants. Cooper
Of the Pirates. Nehf OF the Giants and
Rixey of the Reds were the outstand-
ing figures in the hurting records.
The year again saw remarkable In
terest in baseball both in the majors
and the minors. But the general inter-
est was not quite as high as It was
in 1921 or 1920.
Under the leadership of Judge Lands
the administrative side of the game was
free from the brawls and scraps which
had made the fans tired in the past.
The situation was peaceful and healthy.
