NEW YORK, June 27.-The

Both teams will train in Texas
and may so to Mexico to play in

games at the White Sox park on
the Saturday and Sunday pre-
ceeding the opening Of the regular

ERRORPIJTS
HIM OUT Of
TOURNEY
BY George A. Simpson

For the first time In two
years, Harry g. Pitt, that
artistic golfer from Manor
Club, has missed the cham
pionship flight of a local
tourney.
''Dead Putt" Pitt won't be a. COM
petitor for the top prize in the
present Congressional Country Clun
tournament. His absence was not
due to any inferior golf for Harry
can play left-handed and score well
enough to start with the first six
teen in match play. -,
The Manor marvel disqualified
himself by unknowingly playing the
wrong bah out of the trap in the
qualifying rounds yesterday.
Paired with the affabIe J. b.
MurDhy. of Columbia Country
Club. they had arrived safely at
the sixth tee without mishap.
Their drivers were faithful, but
their seconds faulty and both I'M
fortunately planted their balls in
the same trap. The storm OF the
previous day had transformed the
sand into a muddy substance and
the balls were hardly recognizable.
Let Pitt tell the rest of the story.
1T thought l was playing Murphy's
balIi'' explains Pitt, hut couldn't
tell because of the muddy covering.
The rules don't permit a player
to touch a ball or improve his lie
In a trap.
well, I played out onto the
green hitting Murphy's ball and
thinking all tho time was playing
mine. Murphy knocked my ball onto
the, green and he, too, thought it
was his ball.
"Of course we hOled out our
puts and walked to the seventh
tee, both still ignorant Of our
plumbers.
'Then as I started to tee off I
discovered had Murphy's ball, and
I realized we had automatically dis
qualified ourselves by our uninten-
tional errors. Such pardonable mis-
takes are possible, but the rules Of
golf make no exceptions, for these
cases." means Pitt.
Had Pitt found out his error after
playing Murphy's hall out of the
trap, he could have replaced the
latter's ball without penalty and
) played his own ball, or, in case
both had putted their own balls
after playing each others ball out
OF the trap, there would have been
4 no stroke penalty whatever. The
fact, however, that each had twice
played the others ball brought them
I disqualification.
However, Pitt and Murphy had
company. DR.. H. r. Perry, Of Con-
Sressional, also disqualified himself
on that jinx No. hole. He had
an easy finch putt and unconsciously
stroked the ball in direction from
the cup.
DIR. Perry, nevertheless, played
out his round and counted 81.
However, he informed the tOurna-
ment committee of his misfOr-
tune.
Page Hufty, of Congressional, Is
another topnotcher absent from
the first flight. .Hufty is consoled
by the fact that he padded around
the Watery course Tuesday in 81.
Page can play mean game when
inclined to step out.
