Great Britain and U. S. Will
Present Notable Array
on Soldier Field.


CHICAGO, August 25.-Track and
field aces of the British Empire and
the United States today moved toward
Chicago, where they will meet Wednes-
day night in Soldier Field for interna-
tional supremacy.
From Hamilton, Ontario, where the
empire games were held last week, a
team of more than SO stars headed for
the scene of the first British-American
meet to be held in the United States
while from Pittsburgh, scene of the ma
tional championship OF the Amateur
Athletic Union, Sc Of Uncle Sans best
moved westward.
Following an elaborate opening cere-
mony and parade by members of both
teams and their accompanying delega-
tions, IA relay and team events will be
decided. One point will be awarded
for each event-the running events to
be relay and team affairs, while the
field events will be decided on the basis
of total height or distance.
Based on comparative performances
in their championship meets. the
British strength is concentrated in the
running events, while the United States
appears to have a big edge in the field.
Great Britain's chances in the sprint
relays will not be hurt by the loss of
Percy Williams, double championship
winner in the 1928 Olympic games.
williams, who pulled tendon in the
final of the 10O-yard dash Saturday,
had not planned to run in any event
except the special 100-yard dash.
With Eddie Tolan, University of
Michigan Negro and George Simpson
of Ohio State, paired with two other
American sprint stars, the United States
appeared to have the edge in the 400
yard relay. and the mile relay stacked
up as close.
In the longer races, however, Great
Britain rates as more powerful in the
field, with Herman Brix and Jimmy de
Mers, approaching their A. A. u, cham
pionship marks in the shot put and
javelin, respectively, the United States
should win easily. as well as in the pole
vault, in which Uncle Sans men per-
formed more impressively than the
British.
The loss of williams from the special
100-yard dash is disappointing, but
Simpson, Tolan, Leland and Farmer,
are expected to find sturdy competition
in Leight Miller and Jimmy Fitzpatrick
of Canada; Page Of England, and Legge
Of South Africa.

A GAIN the Bannockburn Golf
~ Club has decided to continue
~ with the "Pinehurst" system of
qualifying players only in the
flights of a golf tournament to which
they should be rated by their handi-
caps. Announcements of the forth
coming invitation tourney Of the club,
to be played over the Glen Echo course
September 10, II, IL and Is, contain
the statement that five flights are to
qualify. subject to the following re-
strictions, which are deemed desirable
for all contestants:
AN entrant whose handicap is less
than 9 will be eligible for the first 16
(draw to be seeded).
IAN entrant whose handicap is 8. 10
or IL will be eligible only for the first
and second 16's.
"An entrant whose handicap is IL
or Is will not be eligible for the fourth
or fifth les and an entrant whose
handicap is IA or Is will not be eligible
for the fifth 16."
Bannockburn has used this system
of qualifying for the past three years
and it has worked out to the satisfac-
ton Of the club and the entrants alike.
Some might have thought the system
little unfair in the past, but club Of
f1cials admit there have been no seri-
GUS casualties, and that those who
failed to make the flights to which they
were rated by their handicaps had no
complaint to make other than to say

MUNY NET HONORS
KEPT BY JENNINGS
Beats Mitchell in Straight
Sets, but D. c. Racketer
Makes Good Fight.
DOOLEY MITCHELL.

~ FORGE JENNINGS, jr., OF
Chicago, still is the national
Y public parks single champion.
He gained his third straight
title yesterday when he triumphed over
Dooly Mitchell, popular District parks
singles champion, in a match that,
though decided in straight sets, was
bitterly fought. The scores were Ga,
IS, 81. Mitchell put up q great
battle in the first two sets, but the
Windy City southpaw was easily his
master in the final set. The match
ended play in the national event, held
here for the first time this year. Com
petition started last Monday and the
tournament was put over in a manner
that reflected pronounced credit on
those in charge.
Jennings found Mitchell anything but
a pushover. In the first two sets the
popular Georgetown junior was the
aggressor, but he could not hold the
pace in the tkird set. More than 1000,
doubtless the largest gallery ever to
witness a tennis match here, lined the
hill adjacent to the courts, cheering
Justify for the hometown boy.
It was through strong comebacks that
Jennings won the first two sets. He
rallied TO take the opener after Mitchell
had gained a 80 lead. In the second
set, Mitchell. also started strongly, rl%1-
ming up a So lead. JeGlings, how,
ever, came back to take the next five
games and the Set. MitcSall Sgice
reached set point in the second chapter.
In the final set, Mitchells game
begged dawn badly as Jennings won
with little difficulty.
Seven natioral parks titles cow are
held by Jennings. He has three singles
championships and four times has been
a member of the Aictor1oua doublec COM
bination. He won the doubles crown
Saturday with Jack de Lara Of Los
Angeles, scoring over Eddie Yeomans
and Bud Msrkey, District parks doubles
title holders.
Last year he and Bob Considine,
District singles champion, paired to
win the championship and in the .wo
previous seasons he hooked up with
Ralph Rice, also of Chicago, to win. He
conquered De Lara to win the singles
title in 1929 and defeated Lester Stolen
of Los Angeles for the crown in 1928
