FISCHER LOOMS
AS BEST BET In
AMATEUR MATCH
BY STUART CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

BALTIMORE COUNTRY CLUB,
Md, Sept, 13.-Today's hero of the
u. S. amaeur golf championship
was long lean Johnny Fischer, of
Fort Thomas, Ky.
This 150-pound six-footer who
holds the American intercollegiate
championship set out with $50 9TH
ers to complete the qualifying rounds
of the 1882 national tournament.
His score of SO for the first quail
fication round was just three
strokes better than those of his
nearest rivals, and only golfing
miracle in reverse could keep him
from rating place in black
Wednesdays Sudden death" man
to man links combat.
All but overlooked when the
choices for top honors were being
made, the sandy-haired Fischer
played the Five Farms layout, III
the daring style which won him
the college crown along with many
another title of lesser consequence.
He cut corners. He tried for
distance out of the rough where his
rivals played in safety, and he went
after his long puts where some of
the others were content to come
close on the approach and to go
down on the second bang at the
hole.
Today's second and final qualifi-
cation round found many of the
pre-tournament favoriteS already on
the outside looking in at the boys
who will rate places in match play.
Francis Ouimet of Brooklin, Mass,
defending champion, could do no
better than 78 in his first tour.
Others of Ouimet's BORDER line
class included Tony Torrance of
England, with 80; Eric McRuvie,
who like Torrance was member
of the British Walker cup team
with 70; John De Forest, British
amateur champion, 78; Don Moe,
Portland, 80; Rex Hartley, Eng
land, 81.
Californians Safe
Along with Fischer, the leaders
as the second qualification round
started today were Jack Westlana, |,
of Chicago, II, and Charley Yates,
Georgia Tech sophomore; Johnny
Goodman, of Omaha; George
Voight, of New York; w. o. Bla-
ney, of West Newton, Mass, and
D. L. Armstrong, of Lancaster, Pa,
each of whom had 70.
Two young stars prominently
mentioned as possible successors to
Ouimet, Charley Seaver, of Los
Angeles, and Gus Moreland, of
Dallas, were fairly safe with first
round scores of rs and rs, respec-
lively.
Chandler Egan, of Del Monte,
Calf, became one of the sentiment
tai favorites by scoring <73 in his
first test. Egan won the title in
1904 and repeated in 1905.
Today's play will be made up of
the second qualifying round of '18
holes.
Tomorrow two rounds of match
play at 18 holes will reduce the 80
oualifiers to a flight of eight which
will begin 36-hole match rounds on
Thursday.

OhitCu EICoo otdll OOiICoPOhaCht
NEW YORK, Sept. 13. - This
bureau has decided to give the busy
minds of the United States Lawn
Tennis association a lift by compil-
ing the big Ten" of the 1882 mems
ranking AS everybody knows, the
minds of the u. S. L. T. A. are
busy trying to figure up a decent
excuse for the indecent way they
treated many of their customers at
last Saturdays match between Els
worth Vines and Henri Cochet.
Hundreds of ticket holders, arriv-
ing late, were told there was nc
more room and were refused adj
mittance. But even more shock
ing was the manner in which the
officials treated ther guests, to
whom they had issued compliment
tary tickets. When the guests
arrived to exchange their coupons
or invitations, for tickets, the doors
were slammed in their faces. 1t is
only reasonable to realize the
guests" would occupy seats that
might otherwise be sold for cash.
But that's the associations wor-
ry, not ours. This is bureau for
the uplift of sports, not manners
Let us be on with our big Ten
selection. Our advance list was a
great success last year. We picked
Vines for No. and SO did the
ranking committee.
So, having had such success with
the lanky Californian in 1881, let
us put him in the post of honor
again this year.
We don't think there will be
many objections to this choice
There will be some, of course. There
always are. Any man who can win
the Wimbledon and U. S. cham
pionships and whip Henri Cochet
twice in the space of four months
deserves top billing.
The matter of the No. 2 spot is
a little more difficult. Does il
belong to Wilmer Allison, the RED
necked Texan, or Clifford Sutter
the rejuvenated intercollegiate
champion from New Orleans? They
both went to the semi-finals in
the national. Allison played beau
tifully in the Davis cup business
and Sutter scored impressively in
tournaments here. Well match
Heads, Allison, tails Sutter. Heads
it is, so Allison gets the deuce spot
Sutter the trey position.
Shields In No.
Frank Shields, the in-and-out
New Yorker, gets berth No. 4, with
No. 5 going to Lester Stoefen, an
other Californian. Practically un-
known last year, Stoefen, blessed
with the most burning service in
tennis made his presence felt ur
and down the line this season. His
defeat of Jiroh Satoh in the ma
tionals was particularly note
worthy, the Japanese ace being one
of the worlds ranking performers.
A couple of fasteners, Sidney B
Wood, New York, and John Var
Ryn, Philadelphia. grab the sixth
and seventh places. Eighth goes tt
Keith Gledhill, who paired with
Vines to win the national doubles
and No. 9 to Gregory Mangin, ma.
tional indoor titleholder.
Tenth place goes to George Lott
who rated No. 2 in 1881. The Chi
cagoan wasn't so hot this year

Parker, and blowing up completely

Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, Sept. 13. U.H -
Stocks crashed / to more than 13
points in the early trading today,
then met support, and regained
more than half their losses before
the close.
Selling orders poured in before
the opening. Their execution
brought out blocks of 1000 to $4,000
shares at prices down l to 3 points
from the previous close.
Declines broadened in the early
trading and further breaks came
in the early afternoon. At one
time, tickers we're nine minutes
late with quotations abbreviated to
the minimum. Early in the fourth
hour the reaction appeared to have
run its course, and steadier tone
came into the list.
In the last hour a rally as swift
as the early decline brought the
whole list sharply above the lows
of the day. Not all the late re-
covery was held.
On the theory that the market
had been driven down too rapidly,
shorts covered part of their COM
mitments late in the day. The
turn in the trend encouraged some
new buying and helped the rally
along.
Wall street ascribed the early de-
cline to uncertainties brought into
the political situation by the Demo-
cratic victory in Maine. Then, too,
there was a tendency to take
profits in view of the decline yes
terday which was considered a
technical corrective for market
which had only experienced minor
setbacks in long period of a
steady advance.
Bonds were weak with stocks in
the early trading, but they, too,
rallied late in the day. Wheat at
one time was down more than a
cent a bushel. 1t recovered all the
loss and closed unchanged. Cotton
reacted downward with other mar
kets and recovered part of the loss.
Silver lost half cent an ounce.
The days news of market i'm
portance was considered encourag-
ing. Dow-Jones estimated steel
production for the week at IS per
cent of capacity, gain of 3 points
over the preceding week. Brad
street reported business failures for
the week ended September at 384
a decline of Ill per cent from the
previous week. New York City de-
partment store sales showed a sharp
improvement. Baltimore and Ohio
freight loadings in the week OF
September 3 increased 812 cars
over the previous week.
Despite the betterment in steel
operations, steel shares were hard
hit in the early trading. United
States Steel touched Al where il
was off AS points from last nights
! close. Late in the day it rallied
to 445s, off a point. 1t closed al
42as.
Auburn Auto touched 48k, of
1871 points. 1t rallied to 81 anc
closed at 54la. American Telephone
hit 11O%, off AS, and closed a.
113. Consolidated Gas which
touched 55A, off 6as, closed al
58%. Southern Pacific regained al
but points of an early decline oi
more than points.
According to preliminary calcu-
lation, the Dow-Jones & Co. indus
trial average stood at 69.87, off 2.4e
points; railroad 32.57, off 1.65, and
utility 3073, off Isl.
Sales were 100000 shares, COM
pared with 100000 shares yester-
day.

Although over a five-year period there has been no consistent in- provement in driving for any sim gle age group among Connecticut motor vehicle operators, q gain in successful operation for two suc- cessive years of II out of 12 classA es of drivers is indicative of better ment in participation of the great majority of all those licensed, says a bulletin of the Department of Motor Vehicles to-day.
 A study of the results of opera tion by these dozen groups shows trend toward more proficient per- formance on the part of the more youthful and for less successful driving, from an accident stand- point, among the more elderly op- orators. Those of 70 or more years of age were the only ones as an age group to exhibit an increased accident record during 1881.
 Against the increase in accidents among the older drivers, there are teh better records made by the first two age classes, the 16 and IT, year-old drivers having had im- provement of 28 and 19 per cent each for 1890 and 1881 respective ly.
 The groups in which larger per- centages of changes in accident ra- tios are disclosed are those in which the total numbers of oper- ators are fewer and the total num- Der of accidents, too, are far less than in the groups of operators of middle age. Accidents involving op- orators, 16, IT and IS years of age and of those 60-69 years and of 70 and more years are expressed in totals of three figures while for the

CHINA USED

Peiping, China. (UP)-China, claiming to have invented gum powder and printing. now asserts that to the Chinese must so credit for first devising and using poison gas.
 Chia Lin Shao, writing in the "China Critic" on the evils of poi- son gas as an instrument of war, sets worth the claim that the Chi- nese are recorded as the first users of gas in war.
 The Chinese admit that the Japanese used finely powdered pepper. that the spartans burned weed saturated with sulphur. and that in 660 A. D.
