Americans Display Supremacy
 Over British Golf Team

Chicago. Sept. Rs-F'urther proof of the supremacy of American golfers today was placed in the archives with the records of the overwhelming victory over the Brit .ish in the Walker cup team matche es which ended yesterday.
 The invaders were able to salvage only one point out of 1:, by tn. slight. one up victory of T. A. Tor. rance over Chick Evans in eight single matches after the home play CTS had won all four points in the foursomes. This made the result: America Il: Great Britain.
 Even some of the individual vic- tories were just as sweeping as the aggregate result, for Bobby Jones, scoring ope under par for 24 holes, smothered the British amateur champion by l3 and 1p, one hole better than his drubbing of Cyril Tolley two years ago at St. An drews in a Walker cup meet.
 Then came Watts Gum. although, he did -f not play closer than 11 strokes Of par. found his opponent R. H. Hardman easy and won 1 to 10. An again the feat of Francis Ouimet in scoring within 3 strokes of par for 29 holes to down the doughty Major C. O. Hezlet, 8 and [. which made the Americans stand out as giants of the links.
 Not far behind was Jess Sweetser formerly American and Brits il amateur champion, who overcame w. l.. Hope and {.
 The next widest margin of victory was that of Jimmie Johnston, who took the measure of Eustace Storey 1 and ?, although he had to play somewhere near par to effect that conquest. Storey, who has attract. ed attention with his cross legged putting stance, did we'll much oi the time and carried the contest tc the ante penultimate green.
 George Non Elm. who finally wcl , and from Dr. William Tweddell captain of the British team, found the 1927 British champion hard tc overcome as the Briton scored 73 three above par in the morning round and was up on the former American champion. Both slipped on the third nine. but Non Elm scored even par on the last 8 holes and eventually changed down standing to 3 up with only two holes to go.
 The seventh American vict, ry was rather an upset for the Britons for G. N. C.
