HUNDREDS ENTER
 AMATEUR TOURNEY
Bobby Jones Heads List Of Stars
 to Play Io2 Title

New York, July 25 R)-The off sociation have considera blc job of proving on their hands between now and September ?, when the na- tioAal amateur championship opens it's first stand in the west. The regulations of the |. s. G. A. state that the field is limited to between 150 and 16O. while 205 players have sent in their entries.
 The western half of the COntinen; celebrating it's first amateur tourney, dominates the field with 134 entries Nearly half Of these are from the Pacific coast. The cast is represent ed on the entry list by only 61 names, but these comprise abonl the strongest possible delegation.
 Bobby Jones, four times winner of the title, heads the contingent from east of the Mississippi, with George Non Elni Of Detroit, and Jess Swcetscr of New York as his strongest supporters. Ten foreign entries are on the list, including Cyril Toliey. the British champion. and C. Ross Somerville and Don Carrick representing Canada.
 Due to the distance from the east coast to Del Monte, many of tn" names well known in eastern championships are missi. from the list. Among these are William F. FoWncs. Jr.. of Pittsburgh. Who is absent for the first time in "a years. Max Marston Of Philad elphia the 1923 champion, and Phil Per kins. former British champion an l runncr-up to Jones in &92S.
 The contingent from the far west goes a long way, both in numbers and ability to make lN for the ab- sence of these players and many of the lesser lights of top flight eastern golf. Don Moe of Portland. Ore, the new we.tcrn champion and on" of the most brilliant figures in west crn golf will be ably seconded ny two other Orceonians, pr. O. F Willing and Frank noip. Phillips l'inlay, the long hitting Harvard star who lives in California. is another outstanding figure, while Jack Nc- vile, California amateur champion also is among the leaders
 The task of the committee hca l. cd by H. II. Ramsay, is to eliminate Q about 90 of the 20j entries. which will be worked out on a basis of ratings and past performances Players who qualified in any one of the last three tournaments are auto. matically eligible to compete at Pebble Beach. but only 49 of the G3 who receive this consideration have filed entries. This leaves nor" than 100 10 be selected by the com- mittee.

 This statement reflects the whole trench attitude. Tildcn. as leade. of the American forces, is a tamiia, figure and the French tennis fans are well aEle to judge the chances of victory or defeat when their play CTS meet him. George Lott, tn young ChicaGoan who displaced Frank Hunter as the other American singles player is likewise more or less familiar figure.

Brilliant pitching and heavy stick work gave the Washington team it's first official victory in the Rotary league. Esmail, the winning twircr, held the Vance playground at bay throughout and after his team mates found their batting eye it was easy sailing for him, The final score was 30 to G.
 Neither team scored in the open ing inning but the losers jumped into the lead at the start of the second when they pushed over a pair of counters. Last years title holders came back in their half of the inning to even the count and took a lead in the third frame that they never rclinquished
