follow one of these and join the ranks
of the collectors.
The writer had the great privilege
of seeing the Freer collection-that
part which was then assembled-in
"the beginning days" in Mr.. Freers
home in Detroit, and It was an un-
forgetable experience. From early
morning one Sunday to late after
noon, Stephen. his man, himself an
appreciator Of art and devoted to the
interests of the collection, passed be-
fore US examples of paintings, pas
tells, water colors. by Whistler: Chi
Japanese pottery. About each Mr..
Freer had something to say, pointing
out that particular loveIiness which
made most strong appeal to him, in
the most charming way sharing his
pleasure. At that time the peacock
-oom had just been set up adjacent
to his house and as a part Of it; the
little gallery which he later was to
build had not been begun; the nation
only few months before had accept
ed the prince1y gift of the collection.
But that day spent going over
these treasures with the great COL
lector will always stand out among
the brightest red-letter days OF the
writer's life, and it gave not only an
introduction to the art of the orient
and a fairly clear comprehension of
Mr.. Freer's deep and unique purpose
in the assembling Of his collection.
but also a vivid impression of the joy
the collector got In collecting, the

sensitiveness Of his perception and
the way In which these qualities en-
riched his life. Collecting Of this sort
lis rare, but it sets standard.

Snort Interest Turns to
Amateur Golf Tournament

Dexter Cummings friends say
"Look at his recent round at On

Guilford and that he has it under con

Those who pick Chick Evans con

the field against the favorite. In all
dition there are a dozen other player
besides those named who will have a
lot of backing.
Still. way down In their hearts, the
majority of the golfing critics believe
that it is a Bobby Jones year. Thay
think that the winning of the open
especially the play-off against Cruick
shank when he played that remarkable
iron shot TO the eighteenth green, has
finally made Bobby. His rather re-
Gently acquired equanimity of DISPOSE
ton was all that the young southernal
needed and the fact that his GOODNESS
stood the test under fire has convinced
them that Bobby is the coming ANA
teur champion. 1t is safe TO say. al
least, that he will enter as the favor
lite.
Sweetser's glamour has faded hi
since the trip TO England but no .golfef
will rejoice at having to bump NJ
against the blond-haired present cham
pion. Even Jones may. well hope that
someone else will topple jess over
early in the matches. "Once burnt
twice shy" applies TO three or four o,
Jess victims of last fall.
Bob Gardner is about the only man
who wields the bludgeons Of iron and
wood on a wet day with the same con-
sistency. as Guilford and nobody cares
to play them in the rain with the pos
sible exception of Cyril Tolley.
In view of these facts. the work of
the amateurs for the next few weeks
will be closely watched and checked
up against the possible results at
Flossmore.
But here is a pointer. Don't worry
too much about what any of them are
doing now. Rather find out week or
ten days before the meeting how theif
momentary flashes of brilliancy are
coming. For the amateur champion
shin is like a college baseball series as
Princeton found out to her cost last
spring. You only have to be on you:
toes for a few great days and the
is yours.

AMERICANS SEE NO

Costumes of Briti;h Wa

SeaSrigbt, y. j., Aug. 4.-American
tennis enthusiasts, constituting the gall
leries here at the Seabright tourIia-
ment, are frankly puzzled over the nc-
ton of the English Lawn Tennis As
sociation in barring photographers
from English courts while matches be-
tween women are il progress.
The splendid graceful action of the
English women playing here has not
only the rhythm of poetry, but lacks
any suggestion that might be out of
the ordinary. Their court costumes, to
be sure, differ from those of American
women players, but not 10 the degree
that an action photograph would be Of
fenSive to good taste.

Cincinnati, Ohio. Aug. 4.-Seven

New York, Aug. 4.-The American
amateur golf championship already is
looming large on the horizon Of sport
lovers. They are turning from the ten
mis- matches in prospect to the golf
situation as offering food for specula-
ton. The truth is. most pSople IN
this country believe that the Davis Cup
team matches inevitably will result in
victory for the Americans in the chal.
lenge round and they feel that Tilden
and Johnston are the logical finalists
for the national tennis title. So golf
offers the factor of mystery. and the
unexpected.
Bobby Jones, Jess Sweetser. Chick
Evans, Francis Ouimet, Jesse Guilford
and the new prodigy. Dexter Cum
mings, each have their partisans. Even
the fact that Bobby Jones won the
open title and that he never has had
a card above so in any Of the Lass four
open tournaments does not disturb the
supporters of the others. They concede
that his average in these matches of
741S strokes to the round. shows wor-
derful ability but they maintain that
it is not steadiness that is the Cnly
winning factor in the amateur cham
pionship. A supreme flisl. at the mo.
ment. they say, may bring victory AMI
point to the way Jess Saeetser plowed
his giant killing way through the field
at Brookline last year to support their
contention.
Claims Of Partisans.
There are others who say that
Francis Ouimet, now that his health
has improved, has the best golfing dis
position of all-that he is possessed
Of suavity that can stand up against
all breaks of the game and that he
has all the fighting qualities as well.
They point out that it was those quail
tiles which brought Bob Gardner TO
the top.
Those who favor Guilford declare
that. given wet day. his hitting
powers will pull him through to the
championship especially as he always
has been a good putter.

!. N|STLET0ES
Jonas Team Again Takes
Title in the Saturday
Baseball League.
SCORE is 4 TO 0
Shook Pitches Great Ball
in Deciding Game Of
the Last Series.
SCORE is 4 TO 0

The Elks baseball team, under the
management Of Al c. Jonas, won the
second half of the Saturday League
schedule from the Mistletoe Cream
cries at the Navarro Stadium grounds
by a score of 4 to 0 Saturday after
noon. This broke. a tie existing be-
tween the two teams and gave the
league championship to the Elks as
they had previously won the first
half of the league. The Elks are
now ready to defend their city cham
pionship won last year and to carry
the colors Of the Saturday League into
the city championship series to start
either the last Sunday in August or
the first Sunday in September be-
tween the winners of the Saturday,
City and Parish Leagues. Last year
in a series between the Saturday and
City Leagues, the Elks annexed the
city title.
Good pitching by John Shook was
the big feature of the Saturday con-
test. Shook held the hard-hitting Mis-
tletoe aggregation to three hits and
no scores, only one man reaching third
base. Only 81 men faced Shook, four
over the allotted number. Three hit
and Shook walked one. The game
was also featured by the debut of Ar
thur Veltman as a pitcher. He pitch
I'd his first game in the Saturday
League and made quite an suspicious
showing against the Elks' wrecking
crew. They only garnered seven hits
of liz, he S4r M tnn
Sheldon Parks One.
A terrific home run drive by Arnold
Sheldon in the fourth inning, was
the batting feature of the day, and IT
looked for a while as il this drive
might be the only run of the contest.
tSheldon got one just to his liking and
drove it far over the left field fence.
1t was some clout. The Elks scored
again in the seventh when with two
down and one on, Shook walked and
Satcher, Burnett and Calm doubled
in a row. 1t was really hard luck for
Veltman as Burnett's drive which
scored the first runs of this inning
looked like it was going TO be an easy
out for the left fielder, but the wind
gave it a bad twist and the fielder
missed it altogether.
The Elks did some fancy fielding,
Stacher starring in center field with
two very difficult catches. Schu-
chardt also made a nice catch. Cap
tain Onion went back and SHARED a
blow that looked sure like it would
fall safe into right field. Naylor
handled several chances at short well.
Pegues behind the bat cut down ali
the Mistletoe men who attempted to
pilfer on him. Giraud played a
mighty steady game at first for the
Mistlctoe bunch.
Only Two Hit Two.
Dotson was the only man for the
Elks to get two hits. one of which
went for a double. Henry Lutz got
two of the three blows chalked up for
the Mistletoes.
