PORT DALHOUSIE, Ontario. July
27.-The ease with which Toronto's S
Argonauts won the championship of
the 60th annual Royal Canadian
Henley Regatta over the week end
was matched only by the ease with
which Theo Dubois of Ottawa won
the singles sculling event.
The Argos piled up 60 points dur
ing the three-day competition while
Buffalo's Westside Club, winner Of
the title the last two years, got only
43. Ecorse, Mich, was third, with 49,
Dubois, heavy favorite in the
singles, loafed along in front with a
short lead until 100 yards from the
finish Then, for the benefit of the
spectators, he applied the pressure
and crossed the line a growing 4
lengths in front of Jim Russell Of
Toronto.
His time of 9:001s was SLOW, but
Dubois wasn't pressed at any stage
of the race.
The other feature of the final day,
the senior eights for the Ned Hanlan
Memorial Trophy, was a struggle
from start to finish with the Ecorse,
Mich, crew edging over the line
ahead of Buffalo. Toronto was third
and the Wyandotte, Mich, Boiler

In the team standings, Ottawa

Professional links Journeys, usually
booming at this time of year with a

the first week in August.
Two affairs are billed early in Au-

been Cancelled and the PGA has
made no announcement Of further
events next month. although two
dates have been held open for "ten-
tative" and unscheduled events.
The Journeys definitely listed are
the $4,000 st. Paul open, long a pre-
ferred stop on the pro summer
schedule, billed for IS 900, on July 80
August l and 2, and the Canadian
open championship at Toronto, Au-
gust 6-8, for $4,000. Sam Snead,

hurst Mid-South affair, usually held
in November, probably will not be
held and with travel restrictions as
they are there isn't much prospect
of staging the rich Miami open

With Red Cross
Among Greatest Womon

NEW YORK, July 27.-When part
OF the physical training division of
the OCD blew up and Mary x.
Browne lost her Job as deputy di-
rector under Alice Marble. every one
who knew this fiery indomitable
woman knew she would turn up
somewhere in war service doing
valuable work.
So now, sure enough, we find her
landed safely in Australia, where
she will help teach tennis and golf

when stationed in rest camps
World War I found her trouping

Harold Throckmorton and other
tennis luminaries for the Red Cross,
an organization with which now,
once again, she is affiliated.
Mary Browne is one of the greatest
athletes of her sex this country has
produced. A native of California,
vivid, dark-eyed, dynamic, she won
her first national tennis title in 1912
and repeated in 1913 and 1914. She
was playing golf casually then, but
every one who saw her at the game
earnestly advised her to take it up
seriously. But she was not ready
for golf at the time; tennis occupied
her mind exclusively.

"You have no idea" she once said

But, as 1t happened, he did, and
Mary succumbed to the lure, but
she never made the 100000 she was
said to have been promised in that
5unket; nowhere near the sum.
She not only, as consequence,
lost her amateur standing in lawn
tennis, but in golf, also, a sport in
which two years previously she had
won distinction by putting the then

round Of the Women's National at
Rhode Island Country Club in a

In the winter of 1927-while she
was touring with the Pyle circus
the Executive Council of the USGA
met and after grave deliberation
decided that while Miss Browne had
done nothing in golf to prejudice her
amateur standing, none the less she
had capitalized her skill in amateur
athletics to the detriment-in the
opinion OF the Executive Committee
of the best interest and true spirit
Of amateur golf
Just short OF three years later,
IN 1890, she was reinstated as an
amateur golfer-as the result, in
part, Of q petition headed by Glenna
Collett and so other women golfers
Of note that her status be restored.
She was a prominent figure in
subsequent Journeys and later,
among other activities, she was
director of the physical education of
co-eds at Ohio State. A great ath-
