YATES SEEN SURE

RiegeI Also Deemed Good
Enough to Face British
Links Stars.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

A T LEAST one Southern lad is

The one lad who is sure to make
the team is Charlie Yates, the lanky,
fast-talking kid from Atlanta, whom
a lot of folks have decided opinions
about.
Some of EN- think that Charlie Is
getting ready to grab the mantle of
Bob Jones as a great golfer, but
others (and these are in the majority
think that Charlie, good as he is, is
just another good golfer who can
be licked by an other good golfer
any day.
The other boy from the South who
looms as Walker Cup team prospect
is Bobby Riegel the Richmond kid,
who upset the dope bucket last June
by stalking off with the Southern
amateur championship in his home
town.
Yates Record Assures Place.
CHARLIE YATES is a cinch to
make the team. Any kid good
enough to win the Western amateur
title can't be left off, and Charles
record for 1885 is good enough any
how, even though he didn't get far
in the national.
But Riegel is another matter. Bobby
has Just come up in golf in the last
two or three years and he hasn't
campaigned around as much as some
of the other youngsters, to get his
name in the headlines 1t costs money
for campaigning and time, too and
Bobby hasn't had any too much OF
either.
But he is a darned good golfer
possibly the best in the Middle At
lantic sector, and if you can (ano
you must) judge by the record, the
best in the South.

OF course, Lawson Little will be on

doubtedly would be the sensation of

his teammates and the little knot of

He covers surprising amount of

Dee Miles and Jake Powell, his un-
usual speed would be better appre-

For a boy who as recently as 1884
