Linksmen Have Week
To Send in Entries
For Hale America

The tournament hasn't caused any
great excitement around Washing
ton, but pro golfers and interested
amateurs who want crack at the
unofficial National Open title this
year have only week to get their
entries in to the United States Golf
Association. Entries will close with
the U. S. G. A. Wednesday. May 13,
and, as usual, must be accompanied
by the f1ve-buck fee.
The tourney is called the Hale
America National Open Golf Tour
nament,' and the victor won't be
the official Open champion. But to
all of golf he will be the top links
man Of the year. Craig Wood, l941
Open victor, will remain the cfficial
Open champ, probably for the dura-
ton Of the war
Local preliminary qualifying
rounds are scheduled May Is at
the Bannockburn Golf and Country
Club, with probably two or three
men to qualify there Those sue
cessful in the local tests will go to
the Forest Hill Field Club of Bloom
field, N. j., June and 6 for further
qualification.
Net proceeds of the tourney after
payment of expenses will go to the
Navy Relief Society and the United
Service Organizations. The main
tourney will be played at the Ridge
moor Country Club Of Chicago,
June 1921, and the affair jointly is
sponsored by the United States Golf
Association, the P. G. A. of America
and the Chicago District Golf
Association.
In everything except the Official"
designation the tourney will be the
Open championship. But the pros
around town singularly are unmoved
by the affair this year. Most OF
them previously wanted to 60 to the
Open when it was official, but ap.
parently they do not care for the

the slope Of Blue Mountain to dedi-

the white marlin fishing he pio-

Aitken, outdoorsman and writer.
Tributes to these departed members
by Dan Holland, John Alden knight

Indiana Primary Recalls
World War ! Apathy

INDIANAPOLIS, May 5 (P.-
Indianas off-year primary election
campaign closed last night amid
an apathy reminiscent of the war
days of l918-a strange situation for
State that usually is quick to
excite over politics.
Party leaders agreed that voting
would be light in today's primary,
in which nominations will be made
for Congress and county and local
offices. They attributed the appar-
ent lack of interest to general pre-
occupation over the war and the
fact that farmers are behind with
their work.
Congressional Contests.
In 1918, first of year election after
the country's entrance into World
War I, the vote dropped 8 per cent
under the preceding oh-year OF 1914.
Major Statewide interest is the
congressional contests, in which the
States IL incumbent Representatives
eight Republicans and four Demo-
crats-seek to remain in the run
ming for a return trip to Wash
ington.
But, at best. only II Of the IL
can be returned because a reappor-
tionment has reduced Indiana's
delegation to II. The district repre-
sented since 1880 by DR.. william H.
Larrabee, Democrat, has been added
to the district of Representative
Raymond Springer, Republican, and
the 72-year-old Mr.. Larrabee will
oppose Mr.. Stringer, in November.
Both are unopposed in the primary.
Four Unopposed.
Four other Representatives -
Charles Halleck, Gerald Lands,
George w. Gillie and Earl Wilson,
all Republicans-have no primary
opposition. Mr.. Wilson was the
sponsor of a curfew for Government
workers in Washington few
months ago.
In Indianapolis, contest for the
Republican nomination for mayor
between Maj. Gen. Robert H. Tyn-
dali, retired, and Henry E. Ostrom,
businessman, held the principal
interest.

Only hope for Georgetown Uni

whipped in matches scheduled at

the Tiger loses to Cornell or Penn
State and Georgetown wins sched-
uled contests against Pittsburgh and
Cornell. the Hoyas will wind up in
deadlock for the top position in
the Middle Atlantic division of the
Eastern League, in which case a
playoff would be held May 10.
Tony Sylvester, Georgetown golf
coach. isn't downcast about the
licking his boys took at the hands
of Princeton last Saturday. They
were beaten by better golf and that's
all there was to it," said Tony. But
it would be all right with us If
Princeton drops a match and we
win the rest of ours, tossing us into
a tie. Penn State is strong and
might lick Princeton"
The Eastern League tourney Is
the high spot Of the Hoya golf year,
the one affair toward which they
point. BY comparison all other
matches are prelminaries. George
town won the Eastern League title
in 1910, with a team spanked by
Johnny Burke. 1888 intercollegiate
champion.

Weather conditions and a speeded-

limit the action in the International
League to single contest, Rochester
hammering Nate Andrews and Ben
Wade of the Syracuse Chiefs for IA
hits and 10-to-3 triumph.
Although that was all the action
on the league playing fields, there
was considerable activity in the

Cleveland of the American League,
sent Catcher Jim Hogan to the
Baltimore Orioles, subject to "a
hour recall. Hogan, native of
Lynn, Mass, was with Oklahoma
City of the Texas League last season,
where he batted .242 in II games.
He finished the year with the Tribe.
Syracuse signed Ipf1elder Bill

come addition to the varsity next

by the Terp yearlings, 63-45, truly

The Hargerstown youngster took
the high jump with leap of feet
inches without being pressed, and
galloped off with the low hurdle
honors with plenty to spare. He
should have won the high timber
event, too, but came acropper half
way home where he stumbled and
fell while leading the pack by full
hurdle.
Irving Holober, who won the

next year for an upturn in the
