BRITISH ARE DOWNcAST
OVER DEFEAT AT GOLF
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, August 3l.-British golf
ers are hard hit over the Iefeat of
their picked players in the internat
tional matches at Southampton to-
day. There is much comment In the
morning newspapers. and the upshot
of the expert analyses seemed to be
that the British lost their supremacy
by making q fetish Of long driving.
The Daily Mail editorially recalls
the remark made by Walter ]. Travis
when he surprised the golf world
eighteen years ago by capturing the
British amateur Championship Travis
said: Il won because the British
players are engaging In a debauchery
OF long driving"
That Is still the trouble here, ac-
cording to Harry Vardon, who, in an
interview. is quoted as declaring:
"An thatsour leading amateurs, and
our younger professionals. too, seam
to bother, about Is hitting the ball a
,trenendous distance. They don't
trouble about the finer pointa of the
game. which count for most. That is
where the Americans beat us: they
beat US particularly in the iron shots
up to the hole, which have always
been the master shots in golf"
Vardon rates the American golfers
so highly that he, wagered they
would win. levery game from the
British in the competition for the
Walker cup.

UNIFORMITY IN RULES

With the increasing interest in golf
in America, due in a measure to the
International phase, the need for
uniformity in rules looms more ur-
gent, for there never can be proper
competitive relationship between
Great Britain and America under two
sets of rules. Neither can the best
interests of the game be served by
having two governing bodies in this
