SOUTHERN GOLF BODY
GIVES PECULIAR VERDICT.

THE Southern Golf Association
pulled funny one regarding
their championship tournament
which Abe Mitchell. the hard hitting
Briton, captured Sunday. Leo Die
gel. the New Orleans homebred, was
tied with Abe at the end OF 10s holes.
and the two agreed to play II off In
th:ee additional holes. Mitchell fl
nally winning out by three strokes.
Now the association running the
affair comes to the front and refuses
to give Abe his first place prize money,
instead dividing first and second
money. amounting to $4,000. between
Mitchell and Diegel.
Their verdict in the matter was
to the effect that the agreement to
play three additional holes was
merely an understanding between
the two contestants and that no
championship was involved. So ap-
parently. Gene Sarazen. open pro-
fessional champion, still retains his
Southern title, even though he did
not compete In the affair which
closed Sunday.

Dartmouth's baseball squad end

afternoon in one of the snappfest
games ever played in Brookland.
Score to 1.
A pass, an infielder's choice. fol-
lowed by wild heave ended the
game after it rocked into an extra
session. Though errors figured in
the scoring of the three runs. the
fielding was on a par with the
heady pitching of Mark jackson

This pair hooked up in a stubborn
pitching duel with Jackson emerg-
ing a winner by the slimmest Kind

ing only one pass. Only one ball
was batted past the infield.
To add to his days work, jack
son. who was captain of c. U. last
year. helped to win his own game
with a two-bagger that scored a
run.
Pass Proves Costly.
Lyon also was tight with his safe
tie. allowing only four. He was a
bit wild and one of his four passes
aided in his downfall in the tenth

The Brooklanders evened the
count in the next session. Vail

BASEBALL fans who neglected
buying tickets for the opening
game at American League Park
next Wednesday are clamoring for
the pasteboards.
Every reserved seat for the
opener has been sold. the last OF
the tickets having been disposed of
ten days ago. The demand for the
pasteboards was the greatest in the
history of the club, according to
Secretary Eddie Eynon. who reports
that he could have sold five times
the number of tickets that were put
on sale.
Some fans are laboring under the
impression that there will not be
any seats on sale at the park on
the opening, day. There will be
plenty. howSDr. as the 5000 seats
In the covered pavilions are not re-
served. They will be placed on sale
at the box Office.
Many of the local fans have an
idea that all of the seats are re-
served since a roof was built over
the bleachers. Though the new

have increased the reserved section
to about $4,000 there are still more

that were on to arouse greater In

this development?
Above any debate a leading in

ters brought on by intercollegiate
competitions.
1t has all no longer been mere
drudgery to those not athletically
inclined.
Students have found outside
recognition for various noteworthy
performances. and this has added to
the general glow.
Lives there a cove with soul so dead
Who has not thrilled rs he has read
''Smith wins the game?''
What then. is the next move?
Having developed all this general
student interest. we are gravely in
