WOMEN in SPORT

this one must have been, may have
every reason to expect that she has
conquered her jinX and won the day.
But not so this time. Miss Quier, rally
ing her reserve energies, holed out with
a birdie 4. Miss Van VIE, coming
right behind her, made 1t in 8. An
eagle on the nineteenth Is one OF those
things that few of us accomplish.
Fatigue, strain and the added dis
couragement of having had to battle
uphill against top-notch golf, with the
knowledge that ones opponent had nm
ished off with a brilliant gesture, were
enough to have unsteadied the hand
of the most experienced linksman. Yet
Miss Van Wie's did not falter. Miss
Quier had accomplished the unexpected
with her birdie. Miss Van VIE &C
complished miracle.
Both of these girls belong to the
younger rank and file, Miss Van Wie's
playing being the sensation of the
Chicago golf world, while Miss Quier,
who has been in national play for the
past four years, although still in her
early twenties. has figured prominently
in the outstanding events both last
year and this. The pair of them are
among. the most promising stars OF the
present day.

M'GRAWS MAY TIE
WITH CARDS TODAY

BY the Associated Press.
The hulking form of DaZzy Vance
cast an insurmountable obstacle into
the upward path of the Cardinals at
Brooklyn yesterday, and instead OF
gaining half a game while the Giants
were idle, they found themselves hauled
down the same distance-in the more
vital losing column-to a point only
half a game ahead of the pursuing
cohorts of John McGraw.
The Cardinals now face the danger
of being tied for first place today even
if they win from Boston, as they
should. The Giants have two against
the Cubs and could deadlock the
scramble by taking both, even If the
Cards also won.
The st. Louis contenders nevertheless
face something softer in three games
against the Braves than the Giants
have any reason to expect in their four
clashes against the Cubs.
