The Capital has just one man who
has chance to qualify-Chris j.
Dunphy of Columbia. the District
amateur champion. The others
Albert r. Mackenzie. his son. Ro-
land; Guy II. Standifer and Donald
aPrson--are out of this champion
ship as definitely as if they had
picked up the ball to Withdraw.
But all are playing today, hoping
they will better their scores of Sat
urday.
Incidentally, Chris Dunphy has no
primrose-bordered path to tread on.
The District titIeholder will have
to shoot about the same good brand
of golf he showed Saturday to make
the grade, always with the possibility
that missed putt or two may blow
him out of the championship. All
the Washington contingent naturally
hopes he duplicates his 79 of Sat
urday.
Standifer's Game Is Queer.
Guy Standifer has been playing a
queer sort of game here. He is hit
ting the ball very well. as well, in
fact. as he has ever played. but the
shots are not coming off as of old.
It's the difference between win
ming golf and mediocre golf. A
missed tee shot at the last hole. on
Saturday, cost him an s, and he play
ed good golf in the American golfer
competition yesterday, but, again,
the results did not come. Standifer
and Dunphy finished with a best
ers, II. Z. thinner and John NJ.
Simpson of Indianapolis; T. 3. Coch-
ran and D. Golding of Wichita Falls,
were next, with II.
None of the topliners. with the eX-
ception of Jess Sweetser and John
9. Anderson, performed for the edi-
fcation of the small gallery yester
day, and the competition found the
champion decidedly off his game. So
much off that the best he and Ander-
son could do was. a rs. Anderson
picked up his ball Saturday and with
eliminating one of the toughest match
players in the country from the 1923
competition.
Albert Mackenzie and his son Ro-
land, with first-day scores of So and
81. cannot turn the trick today. They
need, on the $50 basis, cards of ~
and 73 to do it, and no one has done
it yet over this long Floosmoor
course.
GuilfOrd's Short Game on.
Sweetser, Ouimet, and particularly
Guilford, are not exactly sitting at
the top of the heap today. OF course.
there is not much to worry about
when such star performers get their
backs up, but the first two made SO
Saturday. while Guilford took SO.
Sweetser and Ouimet should do it
today, but with Guilford it's an en-
tjrely different story. The 1921 cham
pion needs only to blow a few puts
or TO encounter couple of penalty
strokes and he will be sitting on the
sidelines when match play starts to-
morrow. That's what makes golf. The
interest never dies until the competi-
tion is definitely over
Big Jesse, the siege gun, who ought
to eat this course up, was worrying
yesterday. Seldom does he show any
sign of mental perturbation. but
Jesse went out to the practice tee
yesterday and went to work to
bolster up his short game, which
threw him down Saturday. Jesse can

In selecting a racket a player
should consider four things, namely,
weight, balance, handle and gut.
Personally. l like a light racket,
about 1917 ounces, with fve-inch
handle and with the weight in the
handle. Tilden also uses this kind.
The tightness of the gut is most
important. Don't get racket in
which the strings are not as tight
as a board. Grasp the racket and
swing it through various strokes !;
then try another. You make like a
heavy racket with large handle,
and the balance best suited to your
taste may be one in which the

The mashie has some very heavy
work to do, and should be strong
enough to perform it. A club with
weight in its head. and with a good
stiff shaft, is; best. It is almost i'm
possible to stop the bali when a
light mashie is used.
A mashie should have slightly
concave face to enable the player
to get plenty of stop on the ball.

Stockholm. Nov. 23.--Oak hill one os th. most beautiful of the royal residences in Sweden, is again for ,a,e or rent. The last occupant was Ira Nelson Morris, recently American minister to Sweden.
 The villa was built 12 years ago by the Romanofs for Princess Maria paiovna when she married Prince Wilhelm. Today it is again being re- lated that the Russian royal family told the Russian minister al Stock holm what it desired in the way of a house for the princess. and to find out the cost. The minister, an 1on- est diplomat and not a business man. made inquiry and was quoted two millions by the Swedish contractor. Money meant rubies to the minister, and he told the Car 100000 rubles would be needed.
 Russia sent him the money, and then the minister woke up to the fact that the Swedish contractor had meant 2,ooe,ooo Swedish crowns. or 1,ooo,ooo rubles.
 The minister and the contractor ssnt the extra 100000 rubles back lin those days this sum amounted to tb10,OD0-fmuch to the amazement and smile Of court circles in St. Petersburg,- the story runs.
