BY the ASSOCldbeu FicSSs
~LEvELAND, June 2s.-Over
Canterbury's 18 narrow fair
ways and tricky greens, usually
beset by winds of gale-like
proportions, the vanguard of aspirants
for the Western Golf Association cham
pionship warmed up today for the
tournament that starts tomorrow
morning.
Practically all OF Americas golfng
clan had gathered for the event which
will renew the struggle for supremacy
of the links which went into a tenn
porary lull last week when Gene Sara
zen outstroked the field in the national
open.
But Thursday the field will start
without the holder of the worlds two
most coveted golflng prizes. Sarazen,
late last night, informed officials OF the
tournament that he would not compete
VITORN out by his double campaign,
w Sarazen said that he was too
exhausted by the strain to inject
himself so soon into another battle
that promises to be as grueling as that
fought over the treacherous reaches OF
Coll u1CddOHs
Many of the players took new heart
at this announcement and the tourna-
ment now takes the aspect OF wide
open contest. Sarazen will probably be
a spectator for the final rounds.
The consensus of players is that Old
Man Par is in for tremendous whip
ping this week after the paid-to-play
clan gets the hang of things. A par ~
course, that many believe should be
70, greets them. Plenty of thick rough
and a high wind may aid the course in
preserving its dignity.

WHERE IT ADVANCES.
San Francisco Course Sets
1891 Pace With 200,395
18-HoIe Rounds.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

TIME rise and fall of the great tide
of public golf links in the United
States in 1881 casts a somewhat
puzzling reflection in the latest
collection of figures compiled very neat
~ by the public links section of the
United States Golf Association.
The play on these wide-open spaces
OF golfdom, where the artisan, the
schoolboy and the night watchman may
meet for a friendly sunrise round,
showed increases in such cities as New
York, Denver, Washington, Atlanta,
Detroit. st. Louis, Buffalo, Toledo and
Fort Worth.
Public play dropped of. however, in
Los Angeles, Boston, Brooklyn, Roch-
ester, Portland, Greg; Seattle, Milwau-
kee. Philadelphia and Dallas.
THE ebb and flow, therefore, showed
l. no regard for section or consist
ency, OF two big Chicago parks,
jackson showed a falling off of 10000
OF more than 5000 last year
Similarly. in San Francisco, Lincoln
Park dropped off $4,000 rounds over
the year, but Harding Park registered
an 5000 gain.
1t may have been because the boys
had more time than usual on their
hands, but both public courses in Upper
Manhattan and the Bronx showed
gains as compared with 1890 At Van
Cortlandt Park, $4,000 more 18-hole
rounds were played, while at Mosholu
the increase was 5000.
THE increase in the number of
l. public courses has not been
checked. In fact. the probability
Is that their growth and popularity has
been encouraged by conditions which
have forced thousands to quit the high
priced private clubs
For 1881. 210 cities reported on the
activities at 1913 courses as compared
with 2e1 the year before.
Close to 100000 18-hole rounds
were played throughout the country on
these courses.
The 1881 championship, played at
the Keller Course, St Paul, was a big
and successful party for the public
links stars. They should have another
fine tournament this year at Louisville,
where the blue grass grows.
