JOHN WILSON IS BEATEN
FOR SCOTTISH GOLF TITLE

The course over which Walter
Hagen lost his British open title
last June-the famous Troon links
has been the scene of another
championship wherein the 1922 vic
tor was deposed. The event was
the Scottish amateur, John Wilson
defending his title. Wilson was
beaten in the first round by Kerr
Symington, one of the local golfers.
It was a Troon man, Tom Burrell,
who did the unexpected by winning
the title, defeating ]. L. G. jenkins,
a British internationalist, in the
final Jenkins had come throug On
his side by eliminating in turn w.
Mackenzie and w. B. Terrence.
both members of the British team
which played against America.

LOST
MILLION ON
THAT ONE
Pittsburgh MoguI Had Chance
to Buy Grover Alexander
and Didn't.

Barney Dreyfuss, owner Of the
Pirates, confided to Grover Alex
ander recently that he lost 81 ,000,-
900 by not signing him when he
had the chance. He figured that
with Alex he would have won sew
eral more flags.
It all started when Alex was
pitching for Galesburg, Ill. Howard
Earl, Pirate scout, kept recommend
ing Alex. During the latter part CT
the season Grover, reaching first,
had been drawn into a double play
and the Canton shortshop, Edwards,
hit him on the back of the head
with his throw.
Alex was out for thirty-six hours.
And he couldn't play for weeks.
indianapolis had secured him and
Grover Joined the HOLSTERS about
six weeks before the season closed.
He was with them ten days or so
and his injury had so affected him
he saw double most of the time.
Finally after nearly beaning his
manager, Charley Carr, in practice,
Owner Watkins sent him home and
paid him $3.50 for the month, which
was highly satisfactory to Alex.
When the next spring rolled
around Indianapolis made no effort
to keep Alex, but sent him to SYRIA
cnse. Howard Earl continued to
recommend him to Dreyfuss, but
Barney listened to Watkins, indian
apolis owner, who was a special
friend of his. He kept advising
against Alexander and the Pitts
burgh owner followed his dope.
IT could have bought you for
$500 or 81 ,OO0," said Barney to Alex,
land we would have won five pen
nants."

Eli Coach and Staff
Have Own Niche in
Grand Stand

During the game with North
Carolina, at New Haven, Tad
Jones and his staff, along with
the Yale substitutes, sat in
roped-off sector of the lower
tier of the Bowl.
In former years the Eli squad
were spread out on benches
along the side lines. This
change is a good one, for not
only is Tad afforded an unob-
structed view of the playing
field, but from a SPECTATORS
point of view there is no con-
fusion before them and con-,
centrated study of the game is
more facile.
Harvard squads have always
been seated on an elevation
above the field, while George
Foster Sanford and his Rutgers
reserve team sit directly below
the altitudinous press stand at
Nelson Field. It is a good
idea!

Western outplayed the Freshmen
in. every way, the collegians' touch

arthur Mem pitched a wonderful
game. He was cool as ice and had
good stuff. We didn't hit him hard,
hut, at that, had it not been for the
marvellous work of Groh in knock
ing down those smashes along the
left-field foul line, the entire com
plexion Of the game might. have
been altered.
The break Of the afternoon came
in the seventh inning when Scott
drove that ball down the third buse
line. It looked like a sure single.
1t might have been a double. No
one can tell what might have hap
pened, but Groh was there with a
spectacular diving stop that killed
the ball, and then he leaped to third
headlong and forced Ward as the
last named slid in.
Heinie also made a very good
play when he broke down q shot
by Joe Dugan and forced Whitley
Witt at second. A walk TO Babe
checked that rally. Heinie also
stopped a WelI-meant smash By
Schang In the fifth inning. He
always seemed to be around to do
the right thing at the right time.
GrOh Topped three hits off our
average. 1t was great baseball by
him. Surely he stood behind Neiif

1 have an idea that the Giants

something of a hitter. Twice he
walked yesterday and strangely
enough, those two walks were
handed to him in pinches. Nehf

conditions that frequently are found
On spring training trips Rog was
the one to tell them that the club
was not at fault and that they
should welcome the chance to be-
come a big Lacquer. The only time
he became irritable was on open
dates. He preferred exhibitions in
small towns to an open date.
I'm going to dig to the bottom
to find out what caused Hornsby to
ask to be traded or sold"
President Samuel BreadOn, who
owns the controlling interest in
the club, who was brought into
the organization ny Hickey three
years ago and who works hand
finland with his manager, an
nounced that HOrIlsby positively
would not be put ON the block
during the winter.
Breadon stated that Hornshy's
three-year contract includes the 1924
season and that the star infielder

When asked what action would be
taken in case Hornsby sticks to his
threat not to play again with tie

Breadon replied: There's long
winter between now and next
spring. Let's wait until that tine
arrives
Hornsby is still in the prime Of
his youth. He was born April 81,
1895. He oined the Cardinals in
September. 1915, and has topped the
league in batting for the last four
seasons, having an average of $40
in 1920, 1897 in 1921, .401 in 1892

Nehf can thank the veteran for
deliverance.
I am infinitely more concerned
over Wallie Pipp than / am over
the loss of a single ball game.
If Pipp is unable to play today,
l will have to rearrange my team
considerably. Ruth will be brought
in from right field to play first,
and with a right handler pitching
Il for the Giants, Elmer Smith or
Gink Hendricks will play right
field.
This substitution will not hurt
our attack to any perceptible or
appreciate degree, but it will af-
feet our defense to some extent.
Pipp is a bitter first sacker than
Ruth and Ruth Is a better right
fielder than any other man we
have.
But regardless of whether Pipp
plays or not, we are going right
into the game to beat the Giants.
All disguise is now off. If rules
are rules and codes are codes, and
both are scraps Of paper, then we
will take up the game as It's
played.
It is no greater breach to say
one thing than another. But tick
ing is violation Of the rules.
When seen by the umpires it
should be called, and the batter
sent to first base. 1 shall insist
in the game today that the officials
watch Snyder closely.
If we are beaten squarely I'll
be the first to congratulate the
Giants, but I'll guard the rights
Of my ball club to the last inch.

to history in its toll Of human
lives.
AS time is reckoned this FL
new public health menace, created
out of the remarkable power
changes in ships on the seas, fac
tories, refineries and mines on land
that now use oil and chemicals ex-
clusively for fuel, and for other in
dustrial uses on q large scale.
Poisonous oil waste and chemical
discharges from all these sources
find their way to the sea either
directly from thousands Of oiI.burn-

lingering with deadly effect on the
way, killing fish, tainting spawn, It
floats oceanward down rivers, into
bays, harbor tributaries and inlets.
The direct money loss and food
value destroyed is beyond calcula-
ton, but the poison laden waters do
not affect seafood alone; they also
convey disease germs that injure
human health, until swim In
ocean or river or lake is yearly be-
coming more dangerous. Sea bath
ing beaches along the Atlantic, par
ticularly those on the New Jersey
and New York coast, including many
famous Long Island beaches, are
suffering the effects Of this deadly
pollution more this year than last.
These beaches must inevitably grow
worse next year because no ade-
Quate preventive measures are pro-
vided for combating the situation.
On June 8, 1923, in the waters
of Kill Van Kull, between New
York and New Jersey, there float
ed hundreds of dead young blue
fish and other species in large
fields Of oil and tar pollution.
Wind and tides carried it off to
other parts, and on July Is, 10 and

poison were sighted about a mile
off shore from the lower end OF

previously the same sort OF revolt

waters between West Bank light

So dangerous had the condition
become that DR.. Monaghan, who
succeeded Senator Copeland as head
Of the New York Department OF
Health, placed an embargo on the
shipment OF soft shell CLAIMS coming
from the Sandy Hook section and

men on them but they did mostly
a transient business.
In the sixth inning the game
stood to 0 in favor Of nobody.
