Doomed in a Title Event.

hardly good enough to go far in the
British amateur event, where the en-
try list, on the whole, probably is
composed of more fine golfers than

play betteo golf than the average
American player. This is shown by
the class of golf shown in the Brit
ish event.
American golfers hope that Gull
Ouimet. again will find the time and
opportunity to make the trip to Great
Britain this summer III quest of the
British amateur title. They may not
be successful, but in any event they
will serve to show tc the Britishers
that the day of international golf has
arrived. particularly as considerable

be planning to play in the American
amateur event at Brookline next fall.

should Send Strong Team.
These men are all golfers of high
caliber, and it would seem to be fit
ting that America send truly repre-
sentative team abroad to play in the
British title event.
Chick Evans is said to be consider
ing an offer made him by a New
York stock brokerage concern to go
to the metropolis. and that may cause
him to pass up the British trip, but
the other American cracks, spurred
on by the chance at one of the high
est titles in world golfdom. may
make another try for the British
amateur.

Does an able and intelligent public
official wish to make plea for dis

not need idealists. Well, I am not an
idealist, but a practical business man

Now let us have done with this non
sense. If any apologies are in order
they are not due from the idealist
Why this squalid anxiety to be con-
sidered practical The practical
people (so-called) are the ones who
