STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE
by W. r. McCALLUM-

TIM PRESTON, the big driver and
mashie man from Capitol Hill
- who presides with considerable
gusto and no little enthusiasm
over the destinies of the amateur golf
ers Of the public links, comes to bat to-
day with announcement of the form of
play for the Washington qualifying
round for the national public links
championship.
The army Of public course golfers
here, out of whose ranks have come
several of the leading golfers of the
country, will play their qualifying round
for the right to go to Jacksonville,
where the national title event will be
played. on June 80 and July l, with
four players to qualify. Jim figures
that the Senate will be about finished
with its business by that time, and he
then can turn to the job of handling
his beloved municipal links golfers.
Tournaments of ~ holes medal play
will be held on the East Potomac and
Rock Creek courses Monday and Tues
day, June 80 and July /, according to
Preston. On Monday there will be So
holes medal play, the 10 lowest scores
on each course to continue at 36 holes
on the following day. On Tuesday the
20 players Go from each courSe) will
report at East Potomac Park, where a
round of Is holes will be played in the
morning, and the same players will go
to Rock Greek Park in the afternoon
for another round of Is holes. "At first
it was thought" Preston says, that
the winner and runner-up at each
course would constitute the team, but
under the changed arrangement the
first four players will make the team,
regardless of whether they are all from
one course or not"
Only those players who are amateurs
and who on January l, 1880, were not
members Of or enjoyed the privileges
of private club and who still retain
that status are eligible to play in the
qualifying rounds. All entries must be
submitted to Preston not later than
June 49, as they must be forwarded to
New York for approval.
The impresario of municipal golf
forwards note to the effect that public
links golfers did rather we'll in the
sectional qualifying rounds for the open
championship. Here is what Jim says:
Il notice in the returns from the quail
flying rounds for the national open that
four former players in the public links
tournaments led their respective dis
tricts. Al Houghton in this district,
Lester Bolstad in Minneapolis, Charles
McAndrew in New England and Walter
Kossman, former st. Louis player, and
now pro at Edwardsville, Ill. Joe Ford,

Going around British Course
Is Likened to Climbing Al ps

Hoylake and not Wallasey for two rea-
sons: AS I suggested, the yards at
Wallasey are too much disposed to
stand on their hind legs, and, for an
other thing, the first time you go
around that course you will think
either that you are crazy or that there
is a Swiss clock factory behind every
hill.
This is because Of the cuckoo birds
at Wallasey. The first time one of
them tuned up started counting to
see what time it was, and 1t went up
to 26 and then knew I was cuckoo
until somebody told me it was not a
clock but bird. This was new to me.
always thought cuckoos were fabu-
louS birds that lived in Swiss clocks,
the same as sardines live in cans, but
the cuckoos at Wallasey are extremely
real, and there is no doubt in my mind
that they eventually got on Leo Diegels
nerves so that he went hay-wire at
the last six holes and wrecked a great
chance to repeat his performance Of
last year at Muirfield when he led the
field in the qualifying round.
Still, that did not help him in the
ensuing competition, and it was old
Walter Hagen, far down the list in the
qualifying round, who came through.
This thought may console all eight of
our American representatives as they
start the heavy work of the tourna-
ment. At worst, they can remember
that they at least qualified.

STRIBLING IS DENIED
Won PORAT GO DELAY
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 18.-Otto Won Porat
and William Stribling will go through
their important heavyweight boxing ex-
ercises in the Chicago Stadium Friday
night, instead of tonight as planned
wv. L." yesterday came up with a
request for postponement until June 80
of the 10-round engagement, pleading
an injured left hand. Illinois State Ath-
letic Commission physicians examined
the hand and pronounced it OK, and
that Stribling was able to fight. Stribling
said the hand was in good shape, but
that he had hurt it a week ago in his
first boxing workout in Chicago, and
that he had not had enough work to
prepare himself to do his best against
the punching Norwegian.
The athletic commission passed the
problem Of postponement to stadium of :
f1cials, and the latter granted Stribling
a stay of two days.
It was reported that Stribling had at
tempted to avoid tacklfng Won Porat,
but the Georgian vehemently denied the
rumors, saying he only wanted to get
into proper condition for the battle
Advance sales today had reached
$50 900, according to Billy Burke, who
handles tickets for the stadium, and
officials of the big sports plant were
confident Of near sellout house.

r YOYLAKE, England, June 18.-I
| - tried out the Wallasey golf
course for the second qualifying
round of the British open
championship and it's only GAS yards
by card, but so many of the yards stand
on end that by the time had watched
Bobby Jones use up n blows and 8
hours around it, was a lot more tired
than Napoleon Bonaparte after crossing
the Alps.
So I went back to watch Leo Diegel
finish his round. which he had started
brilliantly. I thought it would rest me.
Archie Compston was the board with
a score of 141. and all Leo had to 90 10
tie him was another II. Leo had done
the first and longest nine in SO and
had started back 4-3-3, so that all he
needed was level fours to beat Comps
ton with 140.
And all Leo did after joined his
gallery was 5-5-5-5-4-5 and ne
was sinking good puts for most of his
"phoebes" This gave him 80 coming
in and card of rs, and put him in with
Percy Alliss for fourth place in the
qualifying round, which buffers no
parSnlpS anyway as long as q CoLlpeI-
tor gets in the first hundred.
They don't count the qualifying
rounds in the championship itself,
which got under way today, and that
was lucky for Jones, who is just 3
blows back Of Compston and in sex
tuple tie for twentieth place. I mean
there were 10 other competitors ahead
of Mr.. Jones in the qualifying rounds,
which, of course, would constitute a
somewhat depressing status after a
couple of rounds in the championship
proper, so far as Mr.. Jones earnest
adherents are concerned, which Is con-
siderably.
The weather holds fair and fine and
the United States has a double quartet
qualified-four professionals and four
amateurs. And I am glad that the
championship proper is being played at

Editorial Comment
The Kaiser Is No Longer Feared
kansas CITY Star)

KanSaS City starr
The repeal Of the law barring the ex-kaiser from Ger
many Is not . sign Of increasing strength Of the mon
archical party. Rather it is q sign that the sentiment for
restoration Of the HohenzolernS has become SO feeble
that the German republic no longer fears it.
In his speeches before the war the kaiser had built
up a feeling that he was q superman; especially that he
was a war lord Of purest ray serene, bold, resourceful
divinely inspired and ready on all occasions to eat his
enemies alive.
This legend crashed when he fled in terror at the end
Of the war. But there were still sentimentalistS who
longed for the glitter Of the Hohenzollern regime. But this
party began to fade when Hindenhurg, known for his
devotion to the monarchy. accepted the republic and
took office under it as president.
Now when the visitor to Berlin inquiries about the
strength Of the old regime he Is conducted to the club
that is the one rendezvous of the irreconcilables. There
is q picture Of the kaiser on the wall and fierce old
colonies sit at the tables drinking beer and talking Of past
glories. But the club is exhibited as q curiosity by the
practical BerliuerS, and when q movement has reached
the curiosity stage it is about ready for the museum.
