This course is simply marvellous"
said Archie Compston.
They. with other members Of the
British Team, with the exception of
Havers. played the course for the first
time yesterday. but it was purely in
practice. and no scores were kept.
Only one round was played. The team
then left for Cleveland for an exhibit
ton match today.
A terrific driving quality was much
in evidence as the British players
made their first round. Compston.
powerfully built six .footer. led the rest
in length of his shots. but was wild
and spent much of his time exploring
the puzzling bunkers scattered over
the recently improved course. Ray.
however, practiced putting assidi-
ouSly, to get the feel of the green, and
placed some fine shots from the eX-
tremeS of the eighteenth green.
Bobby Jones and Gene SaraZen are
due here Friday.
Compston and George Duncan of
the British team are to meet Bobby
Cruickshank and Tommy Armour in
exhibition at Washington Sunday, re-
turning here Monday. Play in the

Needs Only to Hold Pace.
If 1926 was not Bobby's peak year
and he is better in 1927, he is bound
TO be open champion once more. IL
he merely keeps his 1926 pace he's an
even bet to win.
To date, every indication is that
Bobby is as good this year as he
was last, maybe better.
In the latter part of March, he won
the Southern open with a total of PSI
strokes, an average per round of G0l4
This meant gain of II strokes under
his 1926 average.
Directors will say that at Atlanta
Bobby was playing over his home
course. and that it was not "a cham
pionship layout The only answer Il
this is that when Bobby shot his &c
and 6S at Sunningdale last year, for
a qualifying total of 1874 for the
British open. he was IN the neighbor-
hood of 1000 miles from his home
course; and if Eastlake is not a cham
pionship layout it at least stretched
u almost o,tUV NdTuS during the
Southern open and was a pretty
severe test for quite a number of our
foremost experts.
Bobby's showing at Eastlake is
mostly important as showing that he
isn't slipping the least bit. And he
had made very little preparation for
the event.
At Oakmont Bobby will be playing

NEW YORK. June S.-Professional
tennis tournaments will be staged
this Fall in New York, Chicago and
Los Angeles, c. G.. Pyle, the Chi
cago sports promoter, has announced
here.
Besides entering Vincent Richards,
who turned professional last year,
Pyle said he expects to give an in
ternational flavor to the tournaments
by inducing many foreign profess
SIGNALS to enter. He declared a be-
lief that there are enough professional
tennis players in the world now to
make such tournaments successful.
A statement attributed to Pyle to
the effect that William T. Tilden and
William Johnston. veteran Davis Cup
defenders, would quit the ranks Of
amateurs before the end of the year
was somewhat discounted by an an
swering statement from Johnston in
California denying any intention of
doing so.
