'STRAHGQHDU OEE TlAE TEE
by w. r. NE CALLuN

the last week and despite the hot
weather Harry has played several
rounds of golf and he has yet to 60
over 73 for the Manor Club course. A
streak of golf like that at Indian
Spring next month would put him up
there among the qualiflers who will
go to Cleveland in September.
Witty Cox, the Kenwood pro, seems
just about ready to take up where Al
Houghton left off in the business Of
busting par for the River road course.
Witty played a round of golf at Ken
wood yesterday and he didn't do any,
thing but whack himself out q So,
which is one better than par for the
golf course. A round like that during
the National Capital open would be
worth considerable slice of dough,
and probably now that Witty is getting
onto the tricks of the course he may
pull a round or two like that during
the forthcoming tourney. His mines
were IS and "a.
Witty is due to play at Kenwood
tomorrow in an informal match with
Roland Mackenzie of Congressional.
He will play at Congressional on Sun
day, July 81, In a match with Mac
Kenzie, Bob Barnett and Fred Mcleod.
A NEW women's record for the Con-
gressional course today stands to
the credit of hitting Helen Dett-
weller, the District girls title holder.
Helen shot an 81 yesterday in a tour
ney staged by the woman golfers Of
Congressional, playing the mines in 43
and 38. Many a man would be proud
of score like that. The blind bogey
tourney was won by Mrs. j. F. Dow
dali, who scored a 81 and was helped
by z handicap. The prize for the
least number Of puts went to Mrs. w.
r. Bush, who used only 33 puts.
At Manor Mrs. j. w. Cramer and
Mrs. Harvey j. Cooper tied for first
place in the Friday tourney, both with
net cards Of 10. Mrs. j. T. Powell and
Marian Brown tied for second place
With net scores Of 81.

20 YEARS AGO
IN THE STAR

XX7ALTER JOHNSON rescued Jim
w Shaw in the eighth inning
Yesterday to hold Washington's
lead which beat Chicago, 5 to s.
Entering the game with two out,
the bases full and two balls on
Fournier, johnson forced the bat
ter to pop to Shanks and then
retired the side in order the fol-
lowing frame on six pitched balls.
Brooklyn fans are going base ball
crazy, more than $4,000 having
seen the games at Ebbets Field
last week. The Dodgers are in
fourth place, just two games be-
hind the league leading Cubs. Only
81 games separate the last-place
Braves from the top.
Cleveland rests in the American
League cellar, % games behind the
leading White Sox. There was a
rumor that George Stovall would
return to manage the Indians,
replacing Harry Davis.
Emmanuel barely won from Gen.
tral in the Northwest Sunday
School League, to z. Central

both at bat and in the field. The
batting of Lehman and the field
ing of Trimble, at shortstop, were
notable.
George Mogridge, the tall south
paw for whom the Yanks paid the
tidy sum of $500, will have his
third chance in fast company. He
has been up twice previously with
Chicago.

TIE FOR GOLF LEAD.

By the Associated Press.
TONTHILL, Ontario, July 13.-
- Shotmakers from across the
border today held the leading
position in the General Brock
Hotel open golf tournament as the
play went into the final 36 holes.
Ray Mangrum Of Pittsburgh and
Byron Nelson of Ridgewood, N. j..
with cards of 143 for the first half
Of the tournament, were leading the
parade toward the $1,000 first prize
money, but such stars as Walter Hagen,
Denny Shute Of Chicago, Tony Ma
nero of Greensboro, N. c.. and Clar-
ence Doser of Rochester, N. Y, were
close on their heels.
Hagen missed tying Mangrum and
Nelson by one inch. He needed a
par 4 on the eighteenth yesterday to
draw abreast and missed 20-foot
putt. His second shot had found a
bunker, but he blasted to within 20
feet of he pin. The usual large crowd
was following 1.-THE Haig" and he
turned in one of his bits Of show
manship here. He strode to the ball
and taking but brief aim, hit 1t toward
the hole. As it paused an inch from
the lip he grinned, walked to it and
painstakingly measured the shot, be-
fore poking 1t in from one inch.
A HIGH wind kept scores up in yes
1 \ terday's play and the closest to
a 10 par was Henry Picard's II. The
big Hershey, Pa, pro. however, was
five strokes away from the leaders in
total points.
Mangrum, who tied for fourth
place with Shute in the United States
open, found the road little more
rocky yesterday than he did the day
before when he turned in SO. Yester-
day he took 80 blows going out, COM
ing in in 35.
Doser was one stroke behind Hagen
with a 145 and Manero and Shute
followed him with 146 each.
Canada's best bid came from her
amateurs. Jack Cameron of the
Lookout Point Club, that is host to
the tournament, and Joe Thompson,
Burlington star, had totals of lat.

Norcross Tilney, Princeton's 1885
Easter intercollegiate champion. In
the semi finals of the Longwood Bowl
tournament, being held up in the Bay
State.
How stern Hunts opposition will
be is gathered from yesterdays re-
suits. Tilney trounced Guy Cheng,
a member of the Chinese Davis Cup
team, in straight sets, allowing his
illustrious foe one, two and three
games, respectively, in the three sets
played. Meanwhile Hunt was forced

inasmuch as it was made from the

Witty is the new pro at KenWood,

do most of his friendly gambling over

the entire area will gather at Ken

and later to stick their feet under one
Of Kenwood's best tablecloths for
dinner. It's good gesture and should
get the transplanted Brooklynite away
to flying start in his next venture.
The pros will have a little golf
tournament among themselves, the
