There had been uneasinesS and
confusion among local pros. First
it was rumored the trials would
be held either September "a or
September Is. Then came an
other rumor that the date had
been advanced to September Is.
COnflicted With Amateur
This latter rumor set the boys
astir, because it conflicted with
next weeks national amateur
championship. Several Of the
local paid brigade plan to attend
the amateur tourney. In fact,
George Diffenbaugh leaves to-
night with Bobby Brownell, Dis
trict amateur champion and one
of the qualifiers for the national.
Diffenbaugh stated in no uncer-
tain terms that he would not COM
pete in the P. G. A. qualifying
tests if held September Is.
Selection of october Is as the
sectional P.G.A. qualifying date
is a sensible move. The cham
pionship proper is scheduled NO
vember 1922 at PinehurSt. None
of the local pros could see any
particular reason why the Middle

once again Your contest EQlCOr
must report your selections are al
most up to par, but not quite par.
In scanning the tremendous mail,
there are hundreds with seven out
of ten, but not near so many with
eight players right.
Well sir, maybe a few will be
found closer in the remainder Of
mail on hand. Your Editor and
his staff cannot tell until it is all
given the old once over.
And contestants, there's still
plenty of it to wade into. Really,
you don't know the worst. There's
so much mail on hand that now it
looks as if it'll be Christmas before
it is all finished.
But of course now, Your Editor
is kidding. He should finish
shortly and in the meantime keep
being as patient as you've been
thus far.
We had a selection today with
Travis Jackson, of the New York
Giants, as third sacker. That's
credit where credit is due. For old
Travis has done his share this
year to put the Giants where they
are in the National League.
Once again we've got to report
many batting orders are way off.
For instance, ever so many Selec-
lions had Lou Gehrig. of the New
York Yankees, in the lead-off posi-
ton.
Another had Bill Dickey, OF the
Yanks, in the second hole.
These are glaring exceptions,
however. The majority Of selec-
lions and batting orders have been
good and it promises to be a merry
battle in deciding the final win
nerS.

Gino GaribaIdi
WestIeS Cox
At Stadium

Promoter Joe Turner will corral
his pachyderms for the last out
door show, presenting five better
than average bouts at Griffith
Stadium at $3.50 p. m. tonight.
Featuring the card is the SEIZED
uled red-hot meeting between
Gino Garibaldi, the Italian star,
and Joe Cox, another toughie.
These boys, rougher than most Of
the rough boys, can be counted on
to stir things up bit. One of
the most sensational bouts Of the
year is looked for.
Another item eagerly awaited
by the local mat gentry is the
debut of Nick Campofreda, former
Western Maryland football and
boxing ace. Campofreda, who is
expected to rise to big things in
the mat game, will face Carl Nc
Quade, who is bringing East an
enviable reputation, carved out
where men are men. Campofreda
will be up to his ears in trouble
and, should he survive, will be
brought back for more important
things.
In a fifth match, only made
yesterday, Cliff Olsen and Little
Beaver will go to war in a 30
minute time limit scrap. The
semi-final will find Abe Coleman,
the kangaroo kicker" meeting up
with Ed Meske, a grappler of the
first water, while in another 80
minute affair, Eli Fischer, ex-Yale
athlete, will tangle with Ivan
Managoff.

have been played Monday and
Tuesday at Woodmont Country

They didn't do right by our
local qualifiers for the national

The draw not only bracketed
four of them with Walker Cup
stars but not one was favored with
a first-round bye.
Peacock Plays Tweddell
Roger S. Peacock, Congressional,
who reached the fourth round be-

If Team On
Gridir0n
BY FRANK BUCK" ONEILL

Systems are a fine thing in
football if you have the right
men to fit in with the increaS-
ingly intricate maneuverS Of mod
ern offensiveS. If a coach is
blessed with the right material,
he can fit his men to the system.
If the coach Is not so blessed
with man power, and he is wise
in the ways of the modern game,
he will develop opportunism to
the highest possible degree. He
will fit the system to the capabil-
tiles of his men and hope for the
best.
Jim Pixlee, coach Of George
Washington University's ColonialS,
finds himself at the start OF
1886 embarking upon a career OF
opportunism. He has a task to
perform this year that will tax
the fullest sources of his man
power, leading through test bat
ties with University of Arkansas,
University of West Virginia and
University of Mississippi. Then
there is a return game of the
home-andhome agreement with
Rice Institute, of Houston.
Hungry Athletes
System is q fine thing" Pix
lee said as we chatted in the
spacious dining hall at Camp
Let's, which housed 100 hungry
athletes, all demanding "Sec.
OndS. System is the finest thing
in the world when you have a
squad that can be nodded to the
ideas Of the coach. / heard Of
q NOtre Dame team in the last
years of Knute ROckne that had
100 former prep school captains
report for practice. Every one
of these boys had starred under
capable coaching in high school.
'WelI, there you have the
ideal system material. Those
boys, or a fair percentage of
those boys could adopt them
selves quickly to the require
mentS of the coach. They had
the football instinct, and every
good football player has to be
instructive; and they had been
trained.
But don't think for one
minute" PixIee said, "that in
system coaching, many good
men are allowed to fall out Of
ranks because they are just a
little out of line with the rest.
1 would like to have some OF
the boys here today that have
failed to make a ROckne or q
Warner team.
1--WE have no wealth Of ma
terial' PixIee said. 1--WE have
a team that holds promise Of
doing a good job, but how good
the Job will be is something
that time alone will tell. We
will be a team of OppOrtuniStS,
taking advantage of what stu.
atoms we can, and we will
hope that everything develops
nicely"
Bill Reinhart, as good a coach
as you will meet in a months
march, working hand in glove
with Pixlee is somewhat more
optimistic. He thinks that the
team is strictly an "if" team
but he thinks that the proba'
bilitieS are just about all right.
Tuffy Leemans is winning fame
for himself in the broader fields
these days, and there is no one tc
replace him this year at George
Washington. Nor do any OF the
tackles loom large enough to make
supporters of George Washington
forget Capt. Harry Deming and
his deadly kicking toe.

This is an honor that has long
been coming to the fancy horse
flesh of our American tracks, and
1 applaud the effort to definitely
determine each year the outStand-
ing horses IN the principal classes
of flat racing.
There will be a bronze plaque
awarded the owner of the best
two-year-old colt, the best two
year-old filly, the best three-year-
old and the best horse OF any age.
Four distinct awards for four
great animals, and it is possible
for the winner in the two-year and
three-year classes to also win the
"all age" award.
Sensible, interesting ana appro-
pirate, I say, and heartily enter
into the spirit Of the proposition,
by, even with only about three
fourths Of the year spent, offering
my humble opinions on the sub
ject of the 1896 champions.
1 hope Mr.. Horns idea takes
similar root with the other 500
writer's to whom he will submit
ballots. I feel confident it will and
I also feel positive that there will
be unlimited acclaim paid their
vote by the race-going public gen.
orally.
Idea Spread Rapidly
Why not!
The All-America football brain
child of the late Walter Camp
swept the country some 20 years
back, so much so, that now we
have not only his AIl-America idea
carried out to the least common
denomination, but we also have all
sectional teams, all-prep, all-high,
all-ScholaStic, all-IriSh, all-JewiSh
and all-around football teams pre-
sented annually.
It is really quite the fad, and
has spread to baseball, basketball
and hockey. Heaven only knows
where the mania will end!
AS I mention, with several i'm
portant stakes still to be run, I
make so bold as to register my cur
rent opinions in the matter of can
didateS for the four honorS to be
accorded outstanding thorough
breds of 1885.
An idle Hour Horse
To the venerable and erect Ken
lucky sportsman, Col. E. r. Brad
ley's BILLIONAIRE, accord top
spot among the two-year-old colts.
Millionaire, to my way Of judging
horSefleSh, has proved the young
ster of these times. He won
three races in a row, taking the
measure of the best juveniles at
Saratoga. He's a typical Idle Hour
winner and a credit to the blue
grass country.
Next to Billionaire, rate POM
POON and MAEDIC. Pompoon,
owned and bred by Mrs. j. H.
Loucheim, carried an impost of
1870 pounds and finished second
at Saratoga. Previously he won
two straight events around New
York. He made his debut at PIN
leo, recall, winning handily, too.
Maedic was truly sensation at
Saratoga with five straight wins.
one against the marvellous Billion
aire. However, that race was run
in the mud, for which Millionaire
has no liking whatever.
OF the fillieS, God .bless 'em all,
I could positively make a date
with that gal APOGEE, although
the name is not particularly a
romantic one. She gave the best
fillies at Arlington Park her dust,
and Mr.. Hal Price Headley has a
precious piece of horSeflash
therein.

JACOBS BULGE MATCHES FEATURE FOREST HILLS PLAY
Easy Wins
Seen For
Pair
By DAVIS ]. WALSH

FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Sept. 10.
Anti-climax day in the tennis
championships will be appropri-
ately observed with a series of very
arresting encounters this after
noon between certain parties who
seemingly must win and certain
others who might, but probably
won't.
In other words, all arrangements
have been made by the officials
for everybody to stay away in a
body and those unnerved by the
strain will be given prompt atten-
ton under the stands.
Stating the case with becoming
brevity, the calendar has caught
up with and gone ahead of our
1886 championship, with the result
that we're now having a warmed
over remnant of the quarter finals,
like a snack of something from
the year before.
Here 1t Is
And such as it is, here it is:
Women'S singles, quarter-finalS:
Helen Jacobs, the champion, ver-
sus Gussie Raegener, unSeeded, I'M
heralded and unsung; Dorothy
Sutton Bundy. daughter Of May,
versus Helen Petersen, Stamford,
Conn.
Mems singles, quarter-finals:
Don Bulge, No. Davis Cup man,
versus John McDiarmid, Fort
Worth, Tex, and Princeton Uni
versity; frankie Parker, Spring
Lake, N. j., versus Gregory Man
gin, Newark.
At that, the Jacobs Raegener
event may turn out to be better
than it looks. Gus gave them a
good show the other day against
Mary Greet Harris, while Jake still
has a sprained thumb on her
racquet hand and hasn't been so
good, anyhow. Probably the
match will be fair enough as long
as it lasts, which may be less than
a half hour.
With two straight titles here
and the 1885 Wimbledon cham
pionship for foundation and back
ground, Jake has left the flutter-
ing, tentative days far behind.
Somebody will beat her one Of
these times but it won't be done by
a comparative obscurity from the
other side of the bay district.
Fleeing Comment
The Bundy-Pederson match may
be passed by with no more than a
fleeting and succinct comment.
Briefly, it ought to send one more
coast player into the SemifinalS,
making three, all told, against Kay
Stammers, of England.
If Bulge is half the man his
record says he is, the McDiarmid
meeting should not be too painfully
prolonged, either. To every prac-
tical purpose, McDiarmid has gone
about as far in this tournament as
he has any legitimate right to ex-
pect, particularly when his i'm
pending opponent happens to be
the unofficial No. man OF Amer[
can lawn tennis.
Parker and Mangin will be inter.
esting but unimportant. The for
mer is using a new and, supposedly.
an improved forehand. But we'll
know more about that after the
logged and saturnine Mr.. Mangin
begins blasting them down into
the dirt with his overhead smash
ing from the net.
