Work HUNS at Yale
AS Eleven New Men
Join Old Eli Squad

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Sept. eleven
new men Joined the Yale football
squad in the workout this afternoon,
including the veterans Harry Cross
guard; Rolly Knapp, halfback. and
Neidlinger, shalfback of last years
team; ]. NJ. Htcxson and j. N. Knowles,
halfbacks; G. S. Bunnell, guard; NJ. w.
LoveJoy, center on last years fresh
man team; &. M. Green, lineman of
the. freshmen two years ago; Dan
Kelly, substitute quarterback; Mike
Eddy, who would have won his "Y"
last year except for injuries, and "Kidn
Stokes, halfback of DR.. Bulls eleven.
The principal absentees now are Ted
Wight, halfback; Tex Diller, tackle,
and II, 7. Herr, guard of last years
eleven. Diller is expected back any
day, but Herr not until the last of the
month. Wight's arrival is doubtful be-
fore the opening of college, as he has
hospital as Johns Hopkins in Baltimore
to be treated for strained side. The
extent of Wight's trouble is not known
here, and if he is unable to play foot
ball it will be quite blow to Yale's
hopes, as Wight was an excellent man
on the freshman team two years ago
and was. first class substitute on the
varsity last fall. He also pitched on
the varsity nine in the spring.
Charlie Comerford, coach of the ends,
took charge of the end squad to-day,
while All Into, who was a tackle on
the varsity last year and who is still
in college, though ineligible, owing to
the fact that he played at Maryland
State year before coming to Yale,
helped Myron Miller with the linemen.
While the candidates were having in
dividual instruction for their various
positions the first signal drill of the
season was held for five minutes with
a casually picked team made up of
Blair and Lincoln, ends; Hidden and
Quaille, tackles; Lufkin and Eckart,
guards; Lands, center; O'Hearn,
quarterback, and Scott, Bench and
Nea1e, backfeld.

Meanwhile Jesse Guilford caught
Reggie Lewis playing poorly and ad-
mlnistered an artistic lacing to the
New Yorker, II to 9. Guilford PLAYED
his usually fine game, but Lewis to-
day was far off form. His tee shots
were generally off the line and he
was having deal of trouble with
his irons.
The victory of Guilford and Sweetser
means that this pair of champions will
meet tomorrow. That they will at
tract the biggest part of the gallery
there isn't the slightest doubt For
Bostonians as race are exceedingly
proud of home talent and are figuring
that Gullford is going to repeat his
victory of last season.
But before winning this tournament
Guilford will first have to get by
Sweetser. And that is easier said than
done. Guilford will have the edge in
driving, perhaps, although he won't
be any straighter. But from the drives
up to the green it will be toss-up
In fact Sweetser, if anything, plays his
iron shots a little better than Guilford.
But this match is SO even on paper that
it is nothing more than toss-up, with
victory going to the man who gets the
breaks.
A comparison of GuiIford's card with
Sweetser's as they played to-day shows
that the Bostonian at the turn of the
second round would have been / up.
AT the end of the morning round the
champion would have been down.
Here is Guilford's card in his match
with Lewis:

Ebbets Field Boxing
Program Washed Out

The bouts scheduled for last evening
at Ebbets Field were postponed on ac-
count of rain. In the feature match
Willie Jackson was to have met Sid
Marks, the Canadian lightweight cham
pion.
With the boxing club at Ebbets Field
under suspension by order of the Box

sion that last nights card would have
to be called off for the present. How
ever, the Ebbets Field clubs license
still holds good for, this weeks show

for last night probably will be staged

vase Inls statement on the compara-e
tive showings of Tilden and Johnston
IN the Davis cup matches that were
completed on Tuesday. Both Gerald
PATTERSON and James o. Anderson of
the challenging Australian team, were
beaten most decisively by "Little Bill"
The best Anderson could do was to
WIN six games in three sets, while Pat
terson had to be content with one less
than Anderson's total. Against Til
nen, however, Anderson won twenty
three games to the national champions
twenty-four, and Patterson took thir-
Teen. Thus we see that Tilden yielded
a total OF thirty-seven games to the
two Australians, as compared to the
eleven conceded by Johnston.
These figures are not conclusive, of
course, for. it has ever been Tilden's
hablt to play unevenly, and it is
matter of fact that the Philadelphian
frequently wins his greatest victories
by coming from behind as the result
of thrilling rallies.
Johnston, on the other hand, goes
out on the court with one thought up
permost in his mind-to win as quickly
as is consistent with safety. These
are directly contrasting methods, it
must be. remembered, although both
men aim for the same results, and gem
orally with success crowning their
efforts.
Entirely aside from that, however,
the actual playing of Johnston and
Iilden in the recent Davis Cup matches
found Johnston playing the more pow
erful game. All his strokes were com
ing off in perfect form and with deadly
effectiveness. Tilden, on the contrary,
iapsed badly in his matches against

ing flights of brilliance when the
danger of defeat threatened most

Jones Wins First Three Holes
1t was. evident from the first few
holes that Bobby Jones was in for q
hand to hand fight with Bob Gardner
They had met twice before at Merton
and Oakmont, each winning s and 4.
Jones to-day started by winning the
first three holes in under par. But in
place of weakening Gardner, as usual.
leaped to meet the issue. Gardner sud
denly extended his tee shots bv thirty
yards, hitting the ball for tremendous
distances, and when he reached the
ninth hole he was only down. It was
here that both men showed their match
play calibre.
On the last eight holes of the fore
noon round Gardner had no less than
four brides, and Jones, sticking
strictly to par golf, was again forced
into another gruelling duel
Gardner came back in "a. He took
three puts on two greens, missing
falrly short ones, or he would have
broken the inward record of the course.
AS it was he squared the match and
tney began the afternoon round all
even before the greatest gallery of the
day. The first Gardner slip came when
tie Chicago entry missed 2o-inch putt
TO win at the first hole. He won the
second, and Jones, who was swinging
faster than usual looked to be in
trouble. But here the deluge broke,
and when this cooling downpour struck
Bobby in the face he seemed to take
on new life, for he squared the match
a. moment later by two magnificent
shots to the pin.
1t was then ding-dong, nip and tuck
until the eighth, when Gardner again
took three puts. From this point on
Jones was never headed. At the baf-
fling ninth, over the crest of hill, he
stuck his mashie shot within three feet
of the cup for another win, and after
this finally fought his way to a 8 to 2
triumph, despite Gardners determined
fight to the last putt.
Here are their cards:
New-York tribune., 1922-09-07

" Rffyf
That was one OF the most decisive
beatings the dapper Willie has ever
suffered. Before to-day's meeting had
started there were considerable num-
Der who favored the Briton. They
pointed to his glorious record of the
past and to his ability as golfer in
match fighting. His record in the
national amateur meeting at st. Louis,
in which he defeatd Bobby Jones. was
dug up as added proof of the Scots
prowess to make them all hustle in
this kind of competition.
However, regulations count for lit
tie with Sweetser. He figures golf
match is golf match regardless Of the
stake. He started with crash to-
day and finished the round in the
same way, never letting down once
along the stretch.
The New Yorker's driving against
Hunter was exquisite 1t was more
than that. 1t was flawless and per-
formed with absolute perfection. Hun
ter himself was hitting the ball we'll.
but he found himself struggling to
keep up with the hard hitting metro
politan star.
With his irons Sweetser was doing
wonderful work. His mashie pitches
were as effective as they were pic
turesque. He was hitting all of his
iron shots with splendid firmness and
accuracy. And his putting for the
most part was true and consistent.
Out in 36, which is practically per-
feet, Sweetser stood a up at the turn
in the morning. 1t was generally ex-
pected that Hunter would cut that
lead before the end of the round. but
at rhe finish Sweetser had picked IN
one more hole. He never gave his
opponent another chance, and finished
the match shortly after the turn in
the afternoon.
The cards were:
New-York tribune., 1922-09-07

acutely. His great service pulled him
out of danger frequently.
Tilden could not afford to, take
chances like that against Johnston, nor
do. I think he will, should the two
come through to the final brackets in
the national singles on the turf courts
of the Germantown Cricket Club next
week. If he finds himself opposed to
Johnston for the championship I be-
lieve we will see a more serious and
more formidable Tilden than he played
at Forest Hills.
Vincent Richards, whose showing in
the Davis Cup doubles was so unsatis-
factory, was unfortunate enough to be
off form on the most important ocea-
sion of his tennis career. Nervousness
undoubtedly played a large part in
this, and Tilden's failure to produce
anything like his best game on that
occasion, also helped to throw Richards
off. But those who have seen the
nineteen-year-o star at his best have
not lost confidence in him as the hope
of American lawn tennis in the future.

But it is certain he will make Bobby

McPhail has shown himself to be an
exceptionally cool and courageous
golfer, who is never ruflcd by breaks

who does not know the meaning oe
failure and who is one of the best
hustlers in the field.

as he might have been when taking

So passed out one of the greatest
golfers of the championship before a
younger star who was stronger over
the long, physical test. Those who are
now favored include the winner of the
Guilford-Sweetser match, Evans, Jones
and Tolley or Knepper.
Guilford and Sweetser have q royal
duel on to-day, while Jones and Evans
have younger opponents who are not
likely to win. Evans, Jones and Guilford
have all been playing remarkable golf.
All three are about even with As for
the entire championship. Chick to-day
had an approximated 70 against Fownes,
while Guilford was again moving at
a whirlwind clip.
Tolley must find himself in great
battle with the conqueror of Torrance
and Ouimet, the pride of Sioux City,
Princeton and all points east and west.
This match, with the Guilford- Sweet
ser engagement, will furnish the main
fireworks Of the day.
1t looks almost impossible to beat
Jones, Guilford and Evans, considering
the rare golf they are playing-the
way they are hitting the ball. But
Knepper has shown that number of
unexpected things can happen, while
Sweetser is out to give Guilford a
long, crashing fight to the final blow.
And few but the weak-minded go too
far nowadays in predicting what will
happen when two strong men stand
face to face, no matter what parts of
the earth they come from.

The race to-day was decided in :.
light southwest breeze. 1t was one of
those days when the yacht that found
the wind was the winner, and it quite
often happened that one boat would be
moving while another would be stand
ing still within one hundred yards.
Under the circumstances it cannot be
said that the run was wildly exciting.

was in command, using as his commit
tee boat the power yacht Klahanee,

the starting line off Great Captains
Island the airs were so light that it
was impossible to start the yachts.
After waiting an hour the fleet finally
was sent away in the lightest of light
airs.
Owing to the light winds Chairman
Monks shortened the course for the
larger classes. AS the wind came all
