SARGENT SETS
COURSE RECORD
Champion In 1909 Makes
Great Round In Prac-
tice Play

CHICAGO; May 26-George Sargent
of Columbus, o., champion in 1909, to-
day took advantage of greatly improved
conditions in practice for the national
open gold championship at the Oak Park
Country club, and made a new course
record of SO, after Emmett French of
Youngstown. o., with 20, had broken
the previous figure of II set by Chick
Evans and George Duncan.
The old record was for the 6,439-
yard course. Since it was made the
links has been heightened % yards and
has a par of " instead of II. French
was the first to better the mark, going
out in 33 or three under par and COM
ing back in 81, missing six-fot putt
for SO.
Brilliant Performance
Sargent's performance was brilliant
in that his low score included a four
on the 177-yard second hole, and six
on the 37-yard twelfth, where traps
cost him at least three strokes.
Sargent's card with par for the links !:
Par, out .534 543 444-36
Sargent, out .444 543 433-34
Par, in ... .444 345 534-36-72
Sargent, in 1886 344 534-35-69
Although Sargent's round included
six brides, his performance and
French's near the tie were not so far
ahead of several others of the 156 en-
trants in the western division of the
national open championship elimination
to select 40 players to meet like num-
Der qualifying at Worcester, Mass. The
72-hole play for the title, now held by
Bobby Jones, will take place at Oak
land Hills club, Detroit, June 4, 5.
Course Heavy
The course still was heavy from re-
cent rains. Jock Hutchinson, formerly
British open champion, took 37-36-73,
after missing his first drive and failing
to get home any putt of consequence.
S. Dawson Heron, formerly national
amateur champion, Capt. E. F. Carter
of Chicago, formerly Irish champion
Ira Couch, western junior champion,
and r. Hoover Bankard were amateurs
practicing today, but they made no
startling scores. Chick Evans, formerly
open and amateur champion, vas not
on the links.
Jack Burke of st. Paul, and William
Mehlhorn of st. Louis, favored by
many to come close to the title breezed
around in approximately rs each.
SprOgell Goes Good
Frank Sprogell and M. Mccarthy
of Memphis, set a good pace for the
southern ,contenders, although they did
not turn in their scores.
The title now rests in the south as
result of Bobby Jones' victory in
a playoff of a tie at Inwood last year
to qualify for the final rounds in De
troit. He had to make one preparation
| for the event, however. and that was
to postpone his marriage, because the
date had been originally fixed for the
week of the championship rounds.
Warm weather came today after a
week of cold and rain but showers were
threatening as the players went to bed
tonight preparatory to the two 1S-hole
rounds that will decide whether they
will go to Detroit and continue the
contest or return home. The Oak Park
links is fine test of championship
golf according to the professionals who
say the fairways are faultless and the
green's true.

Especial. )-rWallace Wade has ended
his first year as director of athletics
at Alabama---a year in which Crimson
teams of all varsity have been among

feeling of the student body towards

onym for football would be 'Wade.'
For the total giving up of being to

lies the very reason that Alabama's
football record of that season was the
greatest in Capstone history.

teams; but also in gathering friends,
Wade has been eminently successful.
He has established himself as foot

director, man of community spirit as
