can players been on winning or,
at all events, making a great show
in the British Amateur" that
there has been little tendency to
discuss their chances in the
Walker Cup.
Both Francis Ouimet and
Johnny Goodman, the veterans OF
the outfit, have paid Homerlc
tribute to the youthful team
picked by Britain, nevertheless
they have not the slightest fear
of the cup remaining in England.
After a searching trial on the

lily and grows submerged IN
brackish waters. Under normal
conditions, it is the dominant
plant of such waters, growing
in dense masses on mud flats,
which at low tide may be ex-
posed or barely covered, tnougn
at high tide may be under 10
feet or more of water.
The plant ranges on the Allan
tic Coast from Beaufort, N. c.,
to southern Labrador. Among
names commonly applied to it
are seagrass, tiresome weed.
widgeon grass, sea-moSs, duck
weed, graSsweed, grass-Wrack,
wrack grass, sea-wrack, glass

IMPORTANT PLANT
AS a dominent plant along
much of the coast, it bears an
important relation to every crear
ture living in these waters, and
thus is an indirect value to man.
Fishermen and farmers along
the coast use eelgrass for bed
ding domestic animals. EelgraSS
has found it's most extensive use
as an insulating material. AS a
sound deadener it has proved Of
value in Conservatives of music,
apartment houses, offices and
hotels.
We were aware of the fact
that the almost complete dis
appearance of eelgrass had
played the important role in the
scarcity of waterfowl, such as
sea brant, geese and black ducks,
and of aquatic life that affected
the spawning of sea trout, but
it was not until we had delved
into the Bureau of Agriculture's
findings that we discovered the
plants relation to man.

u. S. Confident on Eve
Of Walker Cup Matches
Beck Selected
To Captain
Brit0nS
BY THOMAS c. WATSON

ST. ANDREWS Scotland, June
2 U.N.SD Fresh from their tri-
umphs and failures at Troon, the
American Walker Cup team mem
berS are now trying out the old
course at St. Andrews, Whereon
the Walker Cup matches will be
fought tomorrow and Saturday.
This form of "foursome" is typi-
cal of the Scottish game, and the
British players are more accus-
toned to this method than the
Americans; but, in the previous
matches, their familiarity with
this type of match has not bene-
fitted them to any extent, and
the Americans are confident that
they will snatch at least three OF
the four matches scheduled for
tomorrow.
On Saturday the singles will be
played by eight members OF each
side who need not necessarily
have taken part in the foursomes.
So concentrated have the Amerl-

league, Va, and Ocean City,
Md, are being born again, so
far as trout are concerned. The
fish are coming into these IA
nous grounds to do their spawn
ing as of yore.
1t seems that during the year
1882 an outstanding biological
phenomenon occurred when eel
grass completely died out. And
we are told that the plant, year
after year, has been building
up a growth almost to a stand
ard before its disappearance.
This aquatic growth not only
affords fish an ideal hideout to
do their spawning, but it plays a
very important part in the lie
of waterfowl.
Clarence Gotham, Of the Blu
reau of Biological Survey, an
authority on eelgrass, stated
that in midsummer of 1881, in
most localities from North Caro-
lima to New England, the leaves
of the eelgrasS became some
what dampened, broke from
their roots, and washed ashore
in great windows. Before the
summer was over, less than l
per cent of normal stand of the
plant existed in the sections
affected. Mr.. Gotham said: $50
far as I am aware, such rapid
ity and destructiveneSS of a
plant epiphytotic is not known
elsewhere in botanical history"
EELGRASS DISASTER
1t was during this eelgrass
catastrophe that many oyster
men had their beds almost COM
pletely ruined by large quanti-
ties of the drifting grass settling
on the cultivated bivalves. Eel
grass has iodine qualities and,
aside from discoloring the oy-
Sters, they were permeated with
a chlorine odor. We were at
Wachapreague, Va, during the
epidemic of destruction, and
tried out an oyster or two from
the beds of A. H. G. Mears, but
that's as far as we got, trying
them out.
Here's what we learn through
the good offices of the United
States Bureau of Agriculture
about the famous plant, eelgrass.
Though eels find shelter within
its stands, whence its name, eel
grass is neither eaten by cells
nor is it a grass. It is a flower
ing plant of the pondweed fam

They pulverize opposition.
There's not a great deal in the

fail to impress.
Armstrong All Alone
Scanning the field we see
Armstrong in pretty much the
same position held by Jim JEFF
fries years ago after the boiler
maker had fought and beaten
Bob F'itzSimmonS, Jim Corbett,
Gus Rubin and Tom Sharkey.
He is in a class by himself.
And somewhere in a railroad
section gang, in a mine or in the
woods, there's a kid who is
dreaming of the time when he
will rule his little sphere with his
fists. Armstrong dreamed those
same dreams a long time ago.
He became king, and some day
he will lose, just as Ross lost.
They're all talking about
whether Armstrong could whip
Joe Wolcott, or Joe Cans or
Jack Blackburn, the last named
being Joe Louis trainer and
teacher. I'd like to see Arm
strong inside of those ropes
with Mickey Walker. The TOY
Bulldog" was one of the greatest
in or out of the ring, who ever
lived. After his terrific ring fight
with Harry Greb in the ring at
the Polo Grounds, Walker met
the Pittsburgh windmill in front
of a night club, and the pair
tangled in one of the most
savage street fights ever seen.
Walker fought welterweights,
middleweights-he was middle
weight champion of the world
after he lost the WelterWeight
title, and he fought heavy
weights. He almost beat Tommy

scented the cup for which six
women teams from the Middle
Atlantic States, New York, New
England and Pennsylvania COM
pete annually and which will be
up again for competition at the
Baltimore Country Club, June
10 and II.
Tryouts for the Middle Allan
tic teams. which will include
Washington players mostly, are
being held at the Baltimore
Club, June 6 and 7, to deter
mine who will be selected to
meet the best the North has to
offer.
Baltimore's number player
Is Anne Harrison, who is still in
her teens. She is fairly sure OF
a berth. Mrs. Margaret Robin
son, who meets Sara Moore in
the finals of the washington
tournament today at the Army
Navy Club will have little diff
ficulty making it.
Another possibility is dark,
curly-headed Frances Grimes, of
Morgantown, w. Va.
Sara Moore's logged game
should save a place for her.
Anne Ellis, slender Chevy Chase
star, will make the trip, too,
with a good chance to compete
in the cup matches.
Team Elimination
The tournament is planned
on a system of team elimination.
The first day there will be "a
individual matches with, for
instance, the Middle States
pennsylvania, Delaware and
part of New Jersey playing the
Middle Atlantic Virginia, West
Virginia, Maryland and the Dis
trict), depending on the draw.
If the Middle Atlantic six win
more matches than the Middle
States, they will meet the six
women victors of the New Eng
land-EaStern (New York and
New Jersey pairings in the
finals on the second day.
For the past few years Middle
Atlantic players have Jared
poorly in the Sears Cup
matches; not because they
weren't trying, however. 1t just
seems that the North has better
material from which to choose.
The type of player New Eng
land has been sending, for
instance, is Of the caliber Of
Sarah Palfrey Fabian, who
ranks high nationally.
Washington, Baltimore and
Richmond haven't produced any
women stars to touch Mrs.
Fabian's game since Penelope
Mcbride, nee Anderson, of Rich
mond, stepped up to number 8
on the national list.
Nevertheless, a Middle Allan
tic team composed of Margaret
Robinson, Frances Grimes,
Anne Harrison, Anne Ellis, Sara
Moore and Peggy Anderson
ought to do far better this year

PoweH a Marked Man

Justly or otherwise, Jake
Powell, former Washington ball
player, now with the Yankees, is
a marked man in baseball. and
his existence is not happy. He
is kept in an aggressive frame
of mind by pitchers working
"high and inside" on him, base
men humping him as he runs
the lines, and men tagging him
solidly with the ball.
Powell ran into Greenberg
and broke his wrist here when
by sliding he could nave avoided
the accident. He takes the last
inch that the letter of baseball
rule gives him, and is willing to
battle it through. Powell won't
be able to whip the whole
league in fistic combat. If the
other players unite in giving
him the works he is bound to
suffer. That's the way things
are working out right now, but
Jake asks no quarter, nor does
he give any quarter.
