Griffs Again Whip Grove.

THIS pair, along with Ted Lyons of
the White Sox, Alvin Crowder OF
the Tigers, Johnny Broaca OF the
Yanks, Johnny Marcum of the AS and
Ivy Andrews of the Browns, accounted
for a triumphS over Bucky Harris
club, which contrived to beat this
quintet only five times. Lyons and
Crowder each won three and dropped
none, Andrews and Broaca each took
four and lost one and Marcum copped
three out of four games against the
Nationals.
Had the Griffmen been able to gain
an even break against these five right
handlers, as well as Wilshere, they
would have beaten out Boston for
fourth place instead of finishing II
games behind the Red Sox. The six
pitchers won 80 and lost 5.
The Nationals enjoyed considerably
more success against left-handed
pitchers, partly due to another asser-
ton of mastery over Robert Moses
Grove, the dour speedballer of the Red
Sox. Ever able to beat Grove, even in
the southpaw's palmiest days, WASH
ington won four of five games from
him. Grove lost nine Of his II games
to the Nationals and the Indians.

fit test for any group of golfers no
matter how good they may be. Deuces
are seldom made and IS are not the
usual score. The one place to avoid
on this hole Is the right side, for
the green slopes away from that side.
They made q fine hole out Of the
fourteenth when Green Chairman
Mackenzie Dawson and his lads built
a new tee near the twelfth green
and made the hole q 225-yarder in
stead Of the fairly short pitch shot
hole it used to be.
Fourteenth No Swap.
A ND they made 1t better when they
= pulled out part of the big trap
which used to stretch across the front
of the green and opened up an en-
trance on the straight road to the
hole. AS 1t stands today the hole
looks fairly easy, but it isn't at all.
Roland Mackenzie, even as long as
he is, usually uses q spoon or a No. 2
iron on this hole and he knows when
he reaches the green he has played a
fine shot.
Big traps guard the green on either
side and the hole is perfectly level
from tee to green, but the real tough
ness Of the hole lies in its length.
Most shots played to the fourteenth
green, from the back tee, do not have
enough distance.
Those short" holes at Congressional
don't make that course any easy prop
osition. They are darned good tests of
golf, by any yardstick, and the old
axiom of the game. 'if you play the
par 3 holes in par you are sure to
score we'll" works out at Congress

IS in a total of IL strokes, your score
is sure to be fairly good.

Angle of Green Testing.

T ET'S see what Mackenzie is talking
about. The third hole is the first
Of the par IS. 1t stretches out 1877
yards, a full wooden club shot for
most players. But mere distance
alone doesn't make it tough. The
two traps f1anking the green and the
angle of the green itself are the bad
spots, for even though the green is
wide open in front, the proper shot
must come in from the right side.
Even the long hitters need No. 2 or
No. iron here and you would be sur
prised at the SIS that pile up on this
par 3 affair.
The ninth Is the next one e-shotter.
Here the shot is played over deep
ravine from an elevated tee to an
elevated green with a big trap in
front, and deep traps on either side.
making it virtually an island green
for a shot of around 185 yards. No
soft spot there, although with favor
ing winds the green can be reached
by the big hitters with No. 4 or S
iron. The green is plenty big, but
really it is surprising how many
golfers who have the distance find the
trap at the left.
The play seems to be all over in
that direction and many wel-hit
ball winds up in the hedge or in the
patch of trees behind the green. 1t
really is tough par 3 affair, and
many good first-nine score has been

Petit Masters Tigers.

FARL WH1TEH1LL, the leading
- Washington pitcher, won four of
his IA victories over the Red Sox while
losing to the Bostons only once. The
Yankees inflicted two of Earl's 13 de-
feats for a perfect record against the
veteran southpaw. Against all other
clubs Whitehill broke even with two
victories and two defeats.
Eddie Linke, who won II games and
dropped for the Nationals and COM
piled the best local percentage, proved
a bearcat against the Athletics and
Brown, beating the former in all
three starts and taking three of four
from st. Louis.
Leon Petit, with eight wins and five
defeats, could attribute his winning
percentage to a mastery over the
champion Detroit Tigers. The little
left-hander beat the Bengals three
times for perfect slate. Petit, Grove,
Sam Jones of the White Sox and
Johnny Allen Of the Yankees won IS
and lost only 2 games to Detroit.

THE twelfth, formerly the eleventh,

to a distance of more than 210 yards
from the back tee it measured 255

only hurler to win as many as six
games from one team. He took that
many from Philadelphia.
Eden Auker of Detroit was the only
pitcher not to lose series to any
club, but the White Sox held him to
two-aIl draw. Cleveland was the only
club to have the edge on Ted Lyons,
Detroit was the only team to take
Broaca for a series and the Nationals
were the only band to show an edge
over Schoolboy Rowe.
Johnny Marcum, leading pitcher OF
the AS, lost only one series and that
to Detroit Andrews of the Browns
won none and dropped three to De-
troit and Philadelphia, but he was

CONTRACT
a BRIDGE =
WRITTEN FOR CENTRAL PRESS
BY E. V. SHEPARD
DUPLICATE OMITS HONOR
SCORES

A YEAR AGO the American Bridge
league, the sole representative in
this country of the International
Bridge league, made diligent inquiry
concerning the desirability of drop
ping honor scoring in all duplicate
games and matches. Leading bridge
clubs and tournament players were
afforded ample opportunity to be
heard on the subject. 1t seemed that
almost a universal desire existed to
have the laws changed to eliminate
honor scoring. Both the American
Bridge league and the American
Whist league, the oldest body of
that sort in the country, dropped
honors in their respective tourna-
ments, and both liked the change.
The British Bridge league tried the
change and liked it. Legislating for
nearly a score of countries where
contract bridge flouriSheS best, the
International Bridge league dropped
honor scoring in duplicate contests.
Seemingly the matter was settled for
all time.
There always are players who dis
like anything which others want,
even if it is late in the day to object.
Such group of dissenters now are
said to object strongly to the change
n duplicate scoring, instead of cheer
fully abiding by the vote of the great
majority of clubs and individuals.
The only objection which have no
ticed them giving is: Duplicate
| bridge should not be a different
/ game from Rubber bridge. The an
swer to this is convincing, or should
be. Duplicate bridge and rubber
games were never intended to be
alike. The method of play is entirely
| different in the two varieties of
game. Rubbers never are played in
duplicate. Vulnerability in duplicate
is assumed to exist in certain cases
1t never is fact, nor can it be, in
duplicate contests. The part score
bonus, the arbitrary game bonus for
assumed vulnerable and non-vulner-
able conditions, are striking illus
trations of difference between du-
plicate and rubber contests. Various
other differences in rules, which
| players readily will recall, exist. Of
course nobody expects duplicate and
rubber games to be just alike. Then
why make a point of not scoring
honors in duplicate?
Only through accident were hon.
ors scored in bridge at all. They had
been abandoned in whist in this
country. 1t happened that the first
books written on bridge were by
British authors, some of whom were
old-time Whist players, and that
they resented honors being dropped
from the older game On that ac-
count they grated upon the newer
game what we had decided was a
useless appendage to whist. Know
ing nothing of the new game, our
players meekly swallowed the rules
laid down for bridge play. AS a mat
ter of common sense, points should
be won by superior bidding and play
not handed to the player lucky
enough to hold series of high hon.
ors. If players wish duplicate more
like rubber games their first step
should be to abolish honor scoring
from rubber games.

TARIFF WALLS BETWEEN
UNITED STATES, CANADA

President Roosevelt believes the So
called Yankee trading treaty entered in
to between the United States and Can
ada will double trade between the two
countries in a year or two. Special in
tereSts, foreseeing hurt or benefit from
the tariff pact, are rushing into the con-
troversy bludgeoning or championing the
treaty, as their business policies and in
terests dictate. The treaty is made
Their howls or cheers will make little
difference.
On the surface, at least, there appears
to be nothing in the treaty detrimental
TO the United States in general. Quota
limitations are placed on lumber, cattle
cream and some other Canadian products
for export to the United States. These
products are the only ones which would
offer serious competition to any import
ant part of industry in the United
States Of the other products included,
many are such that their transportation
from one country to the other amounts
more to trade of desired articles than
entry into competition.
Nor will the treaty affect other ma
tionS to any great degree. A large per-
centage of the items included are traded
principally between the United States
and Canada. In other words, the United
States supplies most of the included ar
ticles going to Canada, and the same is
true in articles exported from Canada to
the United States. Neither nation OBJ
tains the items from any other nation
not included in the treaty, to any great
extent.
There is little danger to either the
United States or Canada of an unbal-
anced trade in favor of either. No where
else in the world is there less reason for
tariff barriers. Geographically and in
the makeup of population, the two great
American nations are similar. One
compliments the other in almost every
respect. Each has recognized the rights
of the other, and excluded one of the
greatest potential reasons for criticism
of the tariff agreement, by excluding
grain from its provisions. In almost all
other fields, the products of one nation
do not duplicate the products of the
other In cases where they do, wage and
price conditions are so similar there is
little reason for export from one country
to the other.
At peace in the trueSt sense of the
word, without military armaments along
any portion of their borders, the two ma
tions have lived in amity for generations.
There is no real reason why, to all in
tents and purposes this arrangement
should not be carried out along all lines.
The Canadian border is less of an inter-
national boundary line, in fact, than
any other border in the world. Amicable
agreement on tariff provisions makes
this even more true.
AS long as the spirit of friendliness
exists on the North American continent,
the peoples of the continent will be wise
to let the rest of the world go its way.
Any step further to promote that
brotherhood is a forward step-and the
administration most recent tariff
treaty is that kind of step.
