GOLF news FROM
Shuttle MEADOW
Sweepstakes Tourney and Second
Round Of Cup Play Tomorrow

The Shuttle Meadow six-man
golf team, after defeating the Sc
quin team last Friday afternoon in
the round robin state title team
tournament, will match strokes on
the local course again this after
noon at $3.50 o'clock with the High
land Country club team. A good
battle is expected because the
course is very fast and low scores
should be made. The dry spell of
the past week has made the greens
and fairways speedy and some long
drives and better approaches should
result.
A sweepstakes tournament will
be staged as the weekly feature at
the club tomorrow. Prizes will be
awarded in Glasses A and B. All
during the week the twilight golf
ers have been swarming over the
course and "Old Man Par" is in for
a tough time tomorrow when the
tournament players get going.
The second round Of the Presi-
dents Cup tournament will also be
played tomorrow and Sunday as 1t
must be finished before Monday
This will bring the winners In the
first round together. Better compe-
tition will be the order for the two
days because the field has been
narrowed down to eight men.
. The serious mien with which the
participants in this event are max
ing their every play shows with
what Importance they regard the
outcome. Woe be to the luckless
caddy or the fidgety member OF the
gallery who makes movement
that ordinarily would pass unno-
ticed because 1t means a public
bawling out for the hapless one.
Nerves are on an edge and some
times raw and this explains the
sharpness Of the criticisms some
times offered. The semi final round
must be played before Thursday
with the finals being staged at the
club Saturday.
/ HS lultltSl III tIle f1tSluHIl
Cup tournament is greater than
ever this year. Each night after
some of the contestants come in,
large groups of interested fans can
be seen grouped about the score
board. Some cheer when it becomes
known that a favorite has come
through while others become de-
pressed when a favored son loses
out.
The fact that interest in gold has
increased by leaps and bounds at
Shuttle Meadow this season Is
shown by the numbers who are
taking lessons from the new assist
ant pro. Chester Erwin. He Is 60
ing day and night at his job. He is
described as an excellent golfer and
a much better teacher. Everyone at
the club, evidently, has the golfing
fever these days.

The Universals hit hard in their
game with the Machinists smashing
out II safe hits for Is runs while
their opponents were held helpless
before the slants OF the two Bills
Chant and Preisser 1t was a great
performance for the Universals who
played the hit and run game to per-
lection. Their attack baffled the
Newmatics from the start and they
didn't stop for any length Of time.
The score was the largest made
against the Newmatics this season.
Three twir.ers were used In an eff
fort to stop the smuggling Universals
but the only one to meet with any
amount Of success was Eric who was
on the mound for good part of the
game and kept the four hits Of Lam
ders we'll scattered. Ernie Anderson
who had been serving them over In
rare form during the season for his
team, was met with a shower Of hits
in the third and retired from the
box.
Chants slow ball which was &C.
casionally mixed up with a few fast
ones. had the Newmatics puzzled.
The Machinists went hitless until tho
fourth when Argosy and Smith
broke the spell with a double and
single bringing in their first run.
The damage however was light and
Chant was the master Of the situa-

The Universals piled up the score

LONDON NEWSPAPERS
EXPRESS ADMIRATION
Aviators and Inventors Now
Should Concentrate on Eliminat-
ing Dangers, Commentators Say.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 7.-Admiration with
out stint was accorded by London
newspapers today to Clarence ID.
Chamberlin and Charles A. Levine for
their flight from New York to Ger
many.
They and the others who accom-
plish flights of this nature" said the
Times, stand in the heroic order of
mankind"
The Daily Telegraph said: "The
achievement adds materially to the
flying honors of a nation which al
ready has the distinction of having
opened an era of practical aviation
for mankind
The Columbia's flight has caused
some commentators to reflect on the
general question of aerial progress.
They say, among other things, that
now the ocean has been thrice flown,
transatlantic flights are in danger of
losing their glamour as mere adVen-
ture; that it is desirable that aviators
and inventors concentrate on elimi-
mating the danger of aeronautical
travel, which, it is contended, was
sufficiently demonstrated, if it needs
demonstration, by the Columbia's mis-
haps at Klinge.
Another contention is that the Co
lumbia's flight did not bring nearer
the possibility of transatlantic service.
What must now be sought" says
the Westminster Gazette, lis fuel that
will go further, or an engine that will
require less fuel so as to provide lift
ing power and space for passengers
or freight"

physical condition of the returning

are on duty at the camps.
Along the lower Atchafalaya the
water had begun to make the last ex-
pected rise, which will bring it to its
crest about the middle of the month.
The gauge read 90, with the foreca st
TO" at least a foot more of water be-
fore the crest passes.
Maj. John c. II. Lee, engineer in
charge of the third river district. said
last night that rise of a foot on the
gauge at Vicksburg was expected be.
fore the end of the month. Back
waters at Greenville will rise at least
foot and a half. he said. adding that
he believed that natural drainage
would take care of large part of the
new water and that very little of the
land recently drained off would go
under water again.
The gauge at New Orleans read

BELLANCA EXTOLS
COLUMB|A'S PILOT.
Says ChamberIin Would Have
Reached Berlin With
Navigator.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June &c NJ. Bel
lanca. designer Of the airplane Column
bia. said today that if Clarence Cham
berlin had had n navigator in the pas
senger's seat of the plane he would
have reached Berlin.
II sincerely admire Mr.. Levine's
courage in going" he said, but l am
sorry that he went, because / feel sure
that if Chamberlin had had a compe-
tent navigator with him he wouldn't
have strayed from his course"
He explained that he was speaking
purely from the standpoint of an aero
nautical expert and had no thought
of belittling the parts played by either
Chamberlin or his passenger, Charles
A. Levine.
From an aeronautical standpoint,
the designer explained, the flight was
n stunt" and added nothing of mo-
ment to the science Of aviation.
1--WE knew what planes were before
1t took place. We knew what motors
were. We knew that this monoplane
with this motor was capable of flying
81 hours. 1t took courage to try it,
naturally, but the result was known
to me the minute the plane was on the
way
Explaining his conclusions that fail
ure to reach Berlin was due to the
lack of a navigator, Be!ianca figured
that the plane had fuel enough to
carry it 1900 miles, and computed
roughly that the Columbia lost LOO
miles through head winds and wan
dering from it's path.
A company to build multi-motored
airplanes, each capable of carrying
not less than 40 passengers to Europe
on a commercial basis, is being organ
lied by Mr.. Belanca. He said the
financial backing for the project had
been assured, but declined to reveal
the names of his associates.
1.-THE experimental work on the
plane will cost $175, 000." he said "The
planes themselves, probably of the BIZ
plane type. will cost in production
about 100000 apiece, exclusive of the
motors, and we can't say yet how
many motors there will be.
''The total flying time from New
York to Paris will be 80 hours. There
will be a stop at Newfoundland and
another at the Azores, where gas will
be taken on, bringing the total travel
ing time to 36 hours.
my planes will have a cruising
speed of 120 miles an hour. There
will be room to walk around, COM
Portable chairs to lounge in and COM
fotrable berths to sleep in
The flights of Col. Lindbergh and
Chamberlin may presage new develop
ment of freight transportation by air,
r. H. Ashton, president of the Amer
lean Railway Association, told meet
ing of the operating division of the
organization.
"Within a year, a month, or per-
haps a week." he said, 1.-The exploits
of the Minnesota boy and Chamberlin
may be in the scrap heap and we will
have something new. This is a high
ly specialized age of experiment and
research"

afield and encouraged the development
IF the 400 horsepower air-cooled engine,
known as the Pratt & Whitney
Wasp" In less than a year this nine
cylinder engine had proved its mettle
to the satisfaction of the Government
and went into production for use on
Navy fighting planes and heavier OBJ
