Troon, Scotland, June 14.—His score of 147 being overtopped only by two Sritona, Anliurfi. Havers and Charles A Whltcomtoe, who each had a 146, Walter Hpgen, the American defend ing champion in the British open golf championship, was in excellent posi tion tonight after the first day's play of 38 holes to retain his title. It was Hagen's remarkable after noon round, in which he negotiated the course in 71, which sent the Amer ican hopes soaring, his only lapses from perfect golf being on the Kith and llth holes, when he drove into ihe rough. In a great finish, Hagen played an Iron shot on his second drive at the final hole, the ball rest ing within a yard of the cup. Smith Has Outside I nance. (^^MacDonald Smith, the California ■tar, who had an 80 for the morning round, came hack strong in the after noon with a 73. but hiB total was such that he is not given more than an outside chance for (he title. Like Smith, the other Americans failed to impress in the first day's play as Johnny Farrell had 153 whllo Leo Diegel of Washington and George, Aulbark of Boston seemed hopelessly out of the running. Diegel finished today with 160 and Aulback with 174. Gordon Lockhart of England was right behind Hagen with 149. while Joe Kirkwood, the Australian cham pion, had 151. Whitcombe and Hagen furnished the features of the day, the former smashing tlie course record with a 70 in his first 18 holes. The weather today was ideal in con tradiction wilh the weather during the qualifying rounds, when the course was swept by heavy winds and rain. Hagrn Gets in Trouble. Hagen was In trouble at the very start when he took three putts on his first hole. On the seventh he was short with his tee shot and finally holed oat 1n five. He ran into some bad'luck on the 17th, where his tee shot bunki red, hut he made an amaz ng recovery. It was the afternoon round that llsgen in the running, and critics hare have made him a favorite for ■ibe -title here on the strength of it. Tomorrow another 36 holes will he played to determine the new cham pion. Friday's Ak Entries *—- ♦ • — .. ’TWELFTH DAY. FIRST RACE—Five and one-half fur longs. Purse $500. Claiming.

June 14.—In the tie vclopotent of democracy there is nothing more important than sport. The nation that turns to sports as a daily portion of life is the nation where one is apt to find the truest democracy. Whether it is lawn tennie, hosing, track or any other sport, the same sporting feeling pres alls. The people are attracted to a sporting event simply by their love of play. Po litical reformers are listened to hy the understanding few, hut a great sporting event such as the recent Milk Fund boxing shosv, where thousands, rich and poor alike, are bound together by the love of great sport, is generally the place svhero clasg distinction is entirely forgot ten. Perhaps no qlher sport has ac complished more for the promotion of International relations than the game of lawn tennis. Beside* the help If has been in the develop ment of demoorary wherever It is played It lias helped to put the re lationship between the various na tions on a much firmer footing than it has ever been before. _ Since 1900, when Dwight Davis, now file president of the United States Dawn Tennis association, first offered the famous Davis Cup for Internal tonal competition, ten nis has been a medium through which lietfer relations between the various nations have grown. At a tennis meet such as the challenge round of a Davis t up match, wheth er It I* played In tills country or abroad, one finds every walk of life represented in the gallery. Dawn tennis was once only played h.v kings. But of late years this great sport has drawn from the various parks throughout the coun try for Ith national champions. The fraternal spirit that lias sprung up between all rlasse* in llie tennis game is something one has to mar vel at. Perhaps the select group known a* tin* first fen of America has been the stimulant that lias developed democracy more than anything else, livery tcnni* player in the United Slales lias one aim while SUIT and EXTRA PANTS Made to Order for Price of Suit Alone, Nice, All-Wool Goode Priced at $45, $50, $55 and up We guarantee careful work and b perfect fit.

In continental Europe today we And Kings and noblemen seeking champion players as Iheir partners in the various events. The king of Sweden lias often acted as hall hoy in many championship matches. Practical ly all the crowned heads of Europe will he found watching Hie coming world's championship that w-lll he played late in June at Wimbledon, England. What a change lias taken place In the tennis game in the last few years! Once played only hy an ex clusive set. It Is now a game of Hie masses. Democracy Is the slogan ii|mn which it lias all hern huilt. Indications point to an even greater span in Hie nevt few years. Behind all fills rests the fHinnus Davis cup. This trophy has been the medium through which we have developed greater democrary and lietter1 international relation* in sports. The tennis fraternity owes Dwight Davis a vote of sincere (hank* for the happy thought of putting this famous bowl in Inter national competition.
