GOLF WORLD SERIES
Is BEING ARRANGED
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July 2S.-Plans have
been laid for world series of golf
between Willie Macfarlane, American
open champion, and Jim Barnes, who
returned 20 the United States recent
ly with the coveted British trophy.
These contests were started by Jock
HutchiSon in 1921 and the score stands
two victories for the American and
two for the British champions, as fol-
lows:
1921-Barnes (A) defeated Jock
Hutchison OBJ.
1922-Gene Sarazen (A) defeated
Walter Hagen (B).
1923-Arthur Havers OBJ defeated
Bobby Jones (A).
1924-Walter Hagen B) defeated
Cyril Walker (A).
Havers is the only full-hedged Brit
Usher to play in defense of his coun-
try's open crown in these tests.
Macfarlane and Barnes will clash
as soon as the Western open at
Youngstown is finished August 20, and
present plans call for the first of the
36-hole matches to be played in Phila-
delphia.
The second is tentatively scheduled
for Washington and the third, if nee
essary, will be played in New York.
After that the two champions will
join forces and meet all comers
throughout the country.

and lot OF money that season
Little by little the story came out
how the PittSburghs went away from
home cock-sure of victory; how some
of them listened to an old ball player
in Chicago who thought it was time
to celebrate; how the celebration went
on night after night, eliminating in
New York with the debacle which cost
whole series of five games in Au-
gust; how Cooper muffed an easy
throw in Brooklyn and lost a vital
1-to-0 game. Little by little, from
being the commanding figures in the
National League. the Pirates of 1921
tottered and slipped under the jugger-
naut of New York.
Going Strong Now.
Since then Pittsburgh has been do
ing it's share of "runner-upping. "
That is the best it has been able to do
until this season, when it poked it's
head out in front at the start of July
and has kept it there.
Pittsburgh fans think their team
will win the championship this year,
but they are backward about saying
SO, as they have been made backward
by their own players, who have dis
appointed repeatedly.
The Giants have not been playing
forward ball. They are a receding
team, not an advancing team. They
have put up a stubborn fight to hold
their own, but their percentage on
the first day of July was .61S and
since then they have been crowded
under the 900 mark, so that means
something. The Pirates We're .615 on
the first Of July and they have been
able to about hold their own since.
And that means something.
If it happens that the Pittsburghs
take one of those falls out of the
New York team, which occasionally
have been the lot of the Giants in
Pittsburgh, il may be that the pen
nant race in the National League will
get quite lot of settling. But much
wheat must be sent through the mill
before this takes place, for the New
Yorks and the Pirates come together
last of all on this second invasion of
the Fasteners into the Western ter
ritory of the league.
Boston and Philadelphia have been
harder nuts for Pittsburgh to crack
than New York and Brooklyn. for
both of the seconddivision teams
have defeated Pittsburgh more than
either of the two first-division clubs
mentioned.
One thing is certain. and that is
that Pittsburgh has not looked so
good in race since 1921 as they
have looked this year.
