Victory is Convincing.

CUNNINGHAM'S time was one and
two-tenths slower than last year
but his victory was just as convincing
as when he beat Chuck Hornbostel in
1886 with Venzke fourth and as two
years ago when Gene also finished
second in bowling to the great Kan
san.
Venzke, who dropped out of the 5000
meters in order to match strides with
his perennial rival again, set out in
front with Ray, former Manhattan
star, and Cunningham in close pursuit.
After two laps Ray took command,
with Glenn still trailing in third place.
When the bell sounded for the last
of the four laps, Cunningham opened
up. For a few strides he battled on
even terms with Venzke and then went
after Ray. 1t took him some Is
meters to catch the flying pace setter
but once he collared him the race was
as good as won.

Grants Steadiness Prevails.

RUDGE double-faulted twice in the
first game of the second set. They
won each others services to 2-all and
Bitsy took the next two games on
deep, well-placed drives. Bulge came
up to a 5-4 lead, however, principally
on the strength of his net play and
Grant settled down to a dogged fight.
The Californian was behind 15-40 in
the tenth game on his own service, but
captured four straight points. The
next two games. fought from the base
lines, were Grants on his steadiness.

Bulge appeared to acknowledge he

Grant, ranked third nationally, ran
the opening set to 5-1. after Bulge

Then Grant. blasting away from
the baseline with several shots that

Pass Penalty Altered,

A MOTHER alteration provides that
the penalty for a forward pass

larly in case a player passes the ball
forward after making a gain from
scrimmage. The distance penalty will
be assessed at the spot from where
the ball is thrown. thus giving the
team in possession of the ball its legit-
innate gain.
The same penalty will be called for
forward passes not thrown from scrim-
mage, applying to passing the ball for

mistake for any association to take it
unto themselves to make ruling con-
trary to the rules of the U. S. G. A."
President jackson said the associa-
tion is making a careful study of the
situation and reminded delegates a
poll was conducted among the COM
petitors at the 1886 amateur cham
pionship. A digest of the poll will be
prepared in the future and circulated
among association members in a
countrywide quest of sentiment.
Various suggestions have been
made. One would amend the present
6-lnch rule so that the ball nearer
the cup shall be lifted if it lie within
either 10 inches of the hole or 10
inches of the opponents ball.
Limited Sticks Rule Popular.
At THE recommendation of the

were drawn more clearly defining ell
gibility for the amateur and public
links championships. Effective this

N YEW YORK, January 9.-The
N day of rugged individualisrl
" in American amateur golf is
For competitive and financial rea-
sons, the annual meeting of the United
States Golf Association today tossed
out the all-match play form of combat
which for the last three years has
turned the amateur title tournament
into a golfing Donnybrook, and re-
turned to the former system of
championship qualifying round
Effective with this years champion
ship, to be played over the links Of
the Alderwood Country Club at Port
land. Greg, August 1928, survivors
Of the customary sectional qualifying
rounds will engage in a two-day So
hole medal test. The low "a scorers
will swing into match play, with all
matches up to the Semi-flnals at IS
holes. The semi-flnals and finals will
be at SO holes.
The system is an innovation in the
sense that. while returning to the old
pattern. the championship quota has
been increased from 80 to "a. Thus.
there still will be a chance for tine
longhorns of the links to stampede
the favorites, especially in the four
1S-hole rounds to be played on the
third and fourth days.
Two Tournaments in One.
A ABANDONMENT of the all hand
to-hand conflict was urged by a
large group of golfers. 1t has been
under consideration for two years, a
year after the British amateur cham
pionship idea was given its baptism
at Brookline, Mass, in 1884.
1T Is the Executive Committees

as it does for 81 qualifiers, embodies
most of the merits of both former
systems and that it will result in ex-
cellent competition from the outse.

M. Hardt explained officially.
1t was reported reliably that Jonn
G. Jackson and Archie M. Reid presi-
dent and vice president. respectively.
dissented when the proposal, offered
by Hal Pierce of Boston, chairman
Of the Championship Committee, was
voted.
"One Of the aims of the return to
the former system is to eliminate the
accidental golfer said Pierce.
We've found also that the first two
days of the championship, Uttered
with many byes, necessary because Of
the size of the field and attended by
the usual number of defaults, have
proved uninteresting and dull to both
the players and the public"
Now the U. S. G. A. proposes to give
the competitors and the golf fan what
amounts to two tournaments for the
price Of one.
