B0Is Delicate Task

will the members Of the British Walker
Cup team, who will compete for the
American title.
Ouimet, as captain Of the United
States Walker Cup team, is giving seri-
GUS thought to the makeup of his
squad, which will come up for selec-
tion at the Spring meeting Of the u S.
G.. A. 1t Is considered likely that he
will select two thoroughly seasoned
players for the backbone of his team,
and that the remaining five will be
chosen from the platoon Of youngsters
who have sprung up during the past
three or four years. There will be no
dearth of good players for the United
States team, and the Selection Com
mittee's great problems will be to hit
on the right ones.
No venue for the Walker Cup
matches has been selected, but it is
probable that the international duel
will be staged in either the Boston
or metropolitan district. Brookline in
Boston and Baltusrol in New Jersey
are under consideration, and both are
fine seasoned courses that would pro-
vide excellent tests for the interna-
tional play.

region. Such q rule will prevent play
ers from seeking to qualify in Sec
tion where the competition may be less
severe than the one in which they have
residence.
The U. s. G. A. also will reserve to
itself 10 places in the field of $50 that
will appear at Five Farms, Baltimore,
for the proper qualifying rounds of the
championship. These places are re-
served for emergencies, and if the as
sociation sees fit it may use a portion
of the reserve positions for players it
may want to invite into the competi-
ton.
IT also is possible the U. S. G. A. may
i reallocate places in the champion
ship field after the entry list for
the sectional qualifying rounds has
been closed. Last year, when the
championship was played at Beverly,
the Chicago district had 180 entries in
the preliminary test and was given "a
places in the second qualifying play.
This proportionately was too great a
number, and the Championship Com
mittee will prevent any such recurrence
in the future The strength and weak
ness of players in certain sections will
govern the number of places they are
allotted, and every effort will be made
to arrive at a fair division Of positions
The first sectional qualification for
the amateur last year proved a tre-
mendous success, although its machin-
cry was thrown together rather hur-
riedly and without the opportunity for
much study. Under the rearrange-
ment of the rules this year the Sec
tional qualifying plan should produce
one of the finest fields ever to COM
pete for the championship.
ERANCIS OUIMET, the reigning
l. amateur champion, will be the
only player exempted from the
sectional qualifying rounds, which is no
more than right. Ouimet, however,
will be obliged to participate in the
qualifying rounds that precede the
championship play at Five Farms. as

NO AERIAL TRAVELLING
FOR A. A. BALL CLUBS
Plan Abandoned After League Is
Granted Better Rates for
Season by Railroads.
BY PAP

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, February 11.-American
Association clubs have given up their
threats to travel by air next season
Thomas Jefferson Hickey, president of
the Glass AA Base Ball League, today
said that the railroads had offered an
attractive reduction in rates, which had
been accepted.
The threat to travel in the clouds
was made by the league solely to get
such a reduction in railroad rates at
first, although later many club owners
were strong for the proposal, regardless
of lower rates. The Columbus team
made several aerial trips last season
and was keen sponsor of the plan.
President Hickey also revealed today
that, because of certain agreements Of
Sunday dates between eastern teams
of the circuit, the schedule was being
redrafted.
