II Is said Bobby will take another
fling at the British amateur and open
championships next season. Should he
add either or both OF these titles to his
string, he will have made a record never
before equaled by any amateur golfer.
1t is more difficult to select the nine
others. In view of his fine showing in
the national amateur championship, as
we'll as his play in the various tourna-
ments on the Pacific Coast the past
season. George Won Elm, the aggressive
Los Angeles golfer, is placed in second
position. Won Elm is not in Jones' class
as a golfer, but he is improving all thu
time and is sure to be heard from in
future championships.
Third Place for Johnston.
Jimmy Johnston, because of his ina-
pressive victory in the Western anna
teur championship, in which he de-
feated a lot of strong opposition with
grand display of golf, is ranked third.
From here on the problem Of selecting
the next seven players becomes moro
intricate, but considering the results of
the important tournaments. it is not un-
Just to place D. Clark Cochran Of Phil
adelphia and Baltimore in fourth posi-
ton. Cochran gave a fine exhibition in
the gold mashie tournament at New
port, when he defeated a select field OF
stars in ~ holes OF medal play with a
score of 800. He continued his good
work in the early part of the national
amateur, setting a new record In the
qualifying rounds. And he might have
gone a long distance had he not en-
countered Bobby Jones in the second
round. But Bobby was forced to play
the best he knew how to win by and :.
Ouimet Still Formidable.
Francis Ouimet ranked firth in this
list, went to the semi-final round
again in the national championship;
he won his match in the Walker cup
contests by coming from behind
against Storey with the best exhipl-
ton of golf of that particular day,
and he also was on the winning end
in the foursomes, with Jesse Gullford
as his partner.
Max Marston did not win any major
tournament this year, but during the
latter part of the season he showed
his mett1e as amateur title holder IN
the gold mashie tournament, the
Walker cup matches and the national
championship.
Cummings Has Improved.
Young Dexter Cummings is the
writer's choice for seventh position.
He won the intercollegiate champion
ship again for the second consecutive
time, and made a grand showing in
the national amateur. He has i'm
proved considerably.
Jesse Guilford, Rudy knepper and
Eddie Held are named eighth, ninth
and tenth places, respectively. TheIr
showing in the major tournaments is
better than that of any three others
who might be selected.

One OF the best known riverfront
men said yesterday that for some un-
known reason the rockfish, which in
past seasons have been caught in this
vicinity at this time OF the year, are
conspicuous by their absence. At
least il any are still in local waters
they are not being caught This
might be termed another mystery of
the deep, for no reason can be- as
signed to the fact that SOME OF these
gamesters are not being landed.
The real fishing. the kind that fur
nishes all the thrills known to ang-
ling, Is to be found in the waters Of
Chesapeake Bay at the present time.
1t is trolling for the big rock that are
80 plentiful in the bay, and still fish
ing for the smaller members OF this
branch of the bass family, for as
every real angler knows the rock fish
Is q striped bass and about as game
as any fish In this section Of the coun-
try. In fact, taken pound for pound.
1t compares very favorRbly with the
small-mouth bass in gamenesa. and
IL 1t could be landed In the same
depth of water that one angles for
the small-mouth bass, it is doubtful
If the angler could tell which kind
of fish he had until he got it near
enough to his boat or his landing net
to see it
Rocks Are Plentiful.
The bay fishing Is not confined to
any section. for PR 1,tically every
oyster bed will reward the angler
with several of these gamesters. but
the big ones weighing anywhere
from 10 to Is or 20 pounds. are caught
out in rather deep water, and instead
OF still fishing for them, or anchoring
your boat and casting first in one
direction and then another. trolling
for them much the same as the big
fish are caught in southern waters
of the Florida coast, is the real sport.
One OF the best and most exper-
fenced fishermen. and a man who COM
ducts parties every day in the week
and who is said to be booked up for
every day until real cold weather
puts an end to this sport, is Capt
Trott of Annapolis One local angler,
who spends all his spare time on the
bay after rockfish, says that when
Capt. Trott makes his appearance on
the bay with his boat all boats fol-
low his lead. and at times there are
as many as 80 or 40 boats watching
for him to come along.
Contrary to the regular run of
deep-sea fishing parties, when six or
eight people usually go out in one
OF tho Chesapeake Bay boats, Capt
Trott never takes more than four and
prefers to take only three. The rea-

is concentrated on timing his swing
There is something about this feeling
for timing that is beyond words to

correctly is feel. You cannot do it

cannot do 1t alone with the hands
The ears may have good deal to do
with 1t, though you cannot depend
for it on hearing alone.
There Is q point. about two-thirds Of

when the 'feeling" for timing begins.
You instfnctivey know through this
segment of the swing, whether the
stroke Is to timed or not BY the time
the clubhead catches the ball you feel

What have those 81 years in Amer

much. They have meant all that they
oould-61 years of service, 81 years
of hope.

They have meant loving my adopt
ed country which gave me the privi-
lege OF citizenship.

and to prove worthy of the privilege
of citizenship and the cause OF hui
manity.
AS to what l may have been able

But to me nothing is worth while
no life is worth living, except fol
the service you can give in the cause
of humanity.
