PORTING IMATTERS CADDIE.—One of the first words a golfer must familiarize himself with; also the person who bears this title. It is not a mistaken pronunciation of the old term "caddie", but is the boy who carries your book of rules, and turns its pages, as occasion arises. GREENS.—Do not be insulted when this word is used; it does not mean that the beginner is a greenhorn. It is a derivative of "grass", and means green-grass. UP AND
is a derivative of "grass", and means green-grass. UP AND TWO TO GO. —This is a most embarrassing expression for the beginner. It is often heard in whispered conversations at parties, but in the present case, it does not mean that the hostess is "getting up in hopes that two of the party are to go." On the contrary, it means that there are two holes to get in before the game is over. BUNKERS.—From this word undoubtedly has come the popular word "bunk", which succeeded "bull". The bunker is only a certain part of the playing field, or greens,
only a certain part of the playing field, or greens, to be quite technical, and it will be explained more fully to the young golfer by the caddie. In fact, any little question that is bothersome can always be explained by the caddie. DRIVERS and PUTTERS.—Drivers is usually applied in the plural to some wives; putters, is the masculine equivalent. They undoubtedly had their place in ordinary conversation before the advent of golf, but have no connection, whatsoever, as drivers and putters are the clubs one hits with. Mlle. Suzanne Lenglen will be missed tomorrow in the opening of the
Lenglen will be missed tomorrow in the opening of the French lawn tennis championship tournament, which will be held at the Racing Club, in the Bois de Boulogne. The French champion is convalescing from a recent illness, and is said to be reserving all her strength for the coming Wimbledon championship games, and, possibly, the prospect of meeting Miss Helen Wills.

LONDON, Friday.—The surprise of the list of cricketers selected to represent England against South Africa in the first Test Match is, that there are no “surprises”, for, as was generally anticipated, A.

FRENCH HORSES' ENGLISH WEIGHTS Particularly interesting were the weights declared yesterday in 'Racing Calendar' for three important handicaps, Royal Hunt Cup, to be decided at Ascot on June 18, the Ascot Stakes run June 17, and the Newbury Summer Cup, now for June 26. The first attracts most attention, for the handicapper has paid French Owners the compliment of placing four French horses at the head of the list. The horses, in order, are Epinard, Town Guard, Sir Gallahad III, and Niceas, at 10st.
Epinard, Town Guard, Sir Gallahad III, and Niceas, at 10st. 11b., 9st. 10lb., 9st. 6lb., and 9st. 11b. respectively. Rose Prince, 9st. 6lb., and Kefalin 9st. 3lb., take pride of place in the Ascot Stakes, whilst Condover, carrying only 8st. 8lb. in the Spring Cup, has to shoulder 9st. in the Newbury Cup. Tom Berry and Luis Stuff. News reaches these parts from across the Channel that Jack Bloomfield, who seems to be the one and only real heavyweight fighter England now can lay claim to, is to meet in mortal combat one known as Tom Berry. Tom put his
mortal combat one known as Tom Berry. Tom put his act on for the local fans some time in November, 1922, with Marcel Nilles. There was some doubt concerning the result of the match for several seconds—that is the fans were wondering which one of the large fellows would kiss the canvas first—but Berry was more agile than Nilles, and beat the Frenchman to the “couché” number one in two minutes. That Historical Relic, A relic that will be prized for its historical value in years to come has been donated to the New York Bar in Paris. During the
donated to the New York Bar in Paris. During the presentation ceremony, Larry McElhone, the génial proprietor, was deeply touched by the words of the donor, who has elected to remain anonymous. The relic is the speed plane which rushed that “Big Hearted Fellow From the West”, Major Tom Wood, to “Upside Down,” as Tom calls it, to witness the English Derby with “my old pal” Lord Derby. True to form, Tom gave all the boys the tip that Sansovino was booked to win, and he is said to have cashed in many pounds on the result. BILL HANDBY LOSES.
cashed in many pounds on the result. BILL HANDBY LOSES. LONDON, Friday.—Alf. Mancini, the young lightweight, gave further evidence of his improved boxing and hitting power at The Ring last night, when he stopped Bill Handley, of Hackney—who was once spoken of as a championship possibility—in five rounds of a match which was scheduled for fifteen rounds. SARAZEN STARTS WELL NEW YORK, Friday.—Gene Sarazen made a fine start in his attempt to win the open golf championship at Detroit yesterday. Paired with McDonald Smith, the former champion played the first nine holes brilliantly, his card showing a 33, two strokes
nine holes brilliantly, his card showing a 33, two strokes below par. His total for the eighteen holes was 74, four strokes over par. Paolino and Texidor. The coming heavyweight battle between Paolino and Texidor, which will take place at the Cirque d’Hiver, Paris, on June 14, is creating quite a bit of interest among local sportsmen. Texidor boxed around here quite a bit last year, and, though a clown fighter, usually came out on top, and always gave the spectators a good run for their money. Paolino seems to be the most promising light prospect there is in Europe

In fact, the 135lb. Luis made a most impressive entry into society the other night at Tex Rickard’s amusement emporium, Madison Square Garden.

The team will include the eight National champions crowned at this week’s tournament, and the runners-up in all classes except the heavyweight division.
