IN MUNY GOLF
TOURNEY
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

Medalist by virtue of his IT in
the qualifying round, Claude Rip
pey was the choice to annex
the East Potomac Park golf tour
nament, which ushers in the first
round of match play today.
Rippey, considered the outStand-
ing golfer at East Potomac Park,
stroked his way around the 18
holes in II, one stroke better than
Larry Downey, Harry Saunders
and Harold Bowers, who tied for
second with 78 apiece.
The youngsUer was off to fly
ing start with 36, two over par,
on course B, but dropped to IL on
the incoming nine, played over
course D. Rippey squared off
with r. B. Irwin in his first round
this morning.
Scores Run High
Fast greens Skyrocketed scores
and most of the entrants were
using long irons or playing short
of the green with the idea of an
easy pitch or run-up shot to the
cup.
Despite an infected finger on
his right hand and three lacer-
ated fingers on his left hand,
AL Houghton, of KenWood, man
aged to set the pace for his
brother pros in the sweepstakes
over his home course with a 70
yesterday. Thanks to brides on
the fourth and seventh, Hough-
ton toured the first nine in 33
and carded 81 on the way back.
Glenn Spencer, of Maryland
Country Club, seized second
money with II and Mel Shorey,
of East Potomac, was third best
with 72.
BOiIS Hamper Barnett
Suffering from lanced boils on
his neck, Bob Barnett, of Chevy
Chase, covered the first nine in
81 but reported no card for the
last nine. At that, he pulled a
brilliant shot on the third hole
when stymied by giant oak tree
his u1gu p1CCn cleared Gne Top
branches and landed four feet
from the cup but his attempt for
a birdie trimmed the cup.

MICHIGAN WILL
NOT COMPETE
IN |. c. IA
BY HARRY COSTELLO

This years intercollegiate, COM
monty known as the I. C. "A
championships in track and field,
have lost some Of their appeal,
due principally to the fact that
University of Michigan'S cham
pionship Big Ten team will not
participate.
According to word from Ann
Arbor, home of the Wolverines,
lack of money will keep the Maize
and Blue athletes away from
Cambridge Friday and Saturday
of this week.
Without Willis Ward, great COL
ored track and field star of Michi-
gan, and without title-defenders
in both dashes, the 440 and the
two hurdle races, the meet has
lost much of it's edge.
Ward would have been a great
drawing card at Cambridge. The
big negro, who stands six feet one
inch and weighs 1876 pounds, was
scheduled to appear in five events
the 100, both jumps and the low
hurdles.
Paul Is Favored
AS matters now stand, with
Michigan out of it, the intercol-
legiates bid fair to develop into a
duel between two teams from the
Far West, Southern California
and Leland Stanford.
Norman Paul, Southern Cal
ifornia star, now appears certain
to score a double for his team,
in the broad jump and the low
hurdles. He has done % flat for
the hurdles and "a feet 4h
inches in the board jump, marks
equalled by none Of the college
boys except Ward.
Unusual interest attaches to
the appearance at Cambridge Of
Ben Eastman, Stanford's half.
mile champion. Big Ben" who
met his Waterloo in the last
Olympic tryouts in the form of
Bill Carr, of Penn, is said to be
in great shape following his two
month lay off.
So enthusiastic has Fordham's
famous trainer, Jake Weber, be-
come, that he had had the
audacity to employ a public
stenographer to write cons of
praise for Joe McCluskey, Ram
star, who is favored to win the
3,OOO-meter run, Joe's favorite
race. If McCluskey comes
through, he will become the first
athlete in I. c. "A. history to
take the distance title three times
running.
A Sure Shot
Hes a sure shot," writes Jake,
and he's such a good boy that
he deserves everything he gets in
the way Of victory"
For a time it was thought that
Bill Bonthron, Of Princeton,
would prove a threat to Joe's am
bit1on to become three-times-in-
three-years winner, but it has
been announced that Bonthron
will limit himself to competition
to the 1900, although some Prince
ton men contend that Bill will
also accept the issue in the 800.
The glaring weaknesses Of many
OF the Eastern teams, among
them Georgetown, coupled with
the wide distribution of strength
IN the East as against the con-
centration of strength in the Far
West, leads most followers of
track and field to express the
opinion that the Far West will
just about outclass the East in
the championShin contention
