Iow.i State (iliamp. Complete
36 1 foil's of (Qualifying
Round in 1 1 1 Salt Lake
City Golfer Celt 1 i.",.
By GEORGE WHEELER.
Players competing in the Trans
rnisi.ippl Golf association's cham
pionship tournament at the Country
tlub yesterday found the link to
their liking rnd furnished the spec
tators with some exceptionally fine
Rolf.
K. E. Knepper, Sioux City, who
put liiimclf in a commanding posi
tion for the medalist honor hy
shooting a 71 on Monday, continued i
lus brilliant playing until he was Oil
the last kg of the 3(-ho!e jMirncy
and then "blew up." lie succeeded,
however, in l'-ading the field by, turn
ing in a card of 74, w hich gave hint
a score of 144 for the qualifying
round.
Knrppcr'a margin was reduced
greatly by flcorge Von Elm, Salt
Lake City, who was in champion
ship form, and narrowly missed ty
ing the Iowa champion for the low
medal score. Von Elm required
just one more stroke than Kneppcr,
taking 145 for the Jo holes.
Playing of Sam Reynolds Feature,
The playing of Sam Reynolds of
the rield club was one of the out
standing features of the day's play
Although he took 81 strokes for the
first 18 holes, he traversed the
course in 69 yesterday, giving him a
qualifying score of 150 and a tie
tor third place with Alex Graham
of Wellington, Kan.
For a time it appeared certain that
all records for the course were go
ing to fall, as Knepper. who played
the inside course in 33 Monday, went
out in 34, setting a new mark for
the nine holes. But when the Iowa
champion had reached the 14th hole,
the effects of five successive weeks'
of tournament play began to tell on
him.
Shoots Par Golf.
Knepped started the inside course
with par scores on the 10th, 11th
and 12th holes. He began to weaken
at this juncture a.nd took six strokes
oil the 14th, or one more than par.
His drive was only ordinary, while
he was short with his spoon on his
second shot. He barely reached
the green with his third and then
took three putts. When he mtssect a
two-foot putt on the 14th green, the
reversal m his form was noticeaDie.

Walter Hagcn
Leads Golfers
at Skokie Club
Detroit "Pro" Turns in Card
of 141 for 36 Holes in
Qualifying Round on
National Open.
Skokie Country Club, Glencoe, 111.,
July 11. Facing playing conditions
which at times helped and at others
hindered their work more than 100
of the 325 entrants in the National
Open Golf championship today strug
gled through a 36-hole qualifying
round which sent about three-fourths
of the starters into the discard and
produced golf which, figuratively,
was much like the weather full of
clouds one minute and sparkling with
sunshine the next. Only 24 won their
way into the finals.
Walter Hagen of Detroit, Ameri
can, who has held almost every "pro"
title in the world, led the field with a
score of 141 John Farrell, Quaker
Ridge (N. Y.) "pro," had the lowest
round with 68 one-fourth of the
qualifiers were amateurs with Eddie
Held, 19-year-old St. Louis wonder,
low among the "non-pros" with 147
and seventh among all it took a to
tal of 152 to qualify, the same as yes
terdayGeorge Duncan, the famous
English "pro." blew up on his final
nine and barely qualified these were
the high spots of the day of golf
thrills, some of which were produced
in a driving rain and all of which
were on a course so soaked that the
putting greens were like sponges.
Ram Interferes.
Early in the day when the rail fell
at one-hour intervals, the scores were
running high and it looked as if a
mark of 155 might qualify, but the
sun came out in the afternoon, dry
ing the fairways, and the totals be
gan to grow smaller and smaller, uu
til John Black. 51-year-old grand'
father, of Oakland, .Cat., turned in
146 as the sun was going down and
with it went all hopes of the nhoot-
ers whose scores had added 153.
Hanging on this ragged edge were
"Hob" 1'ccbles, Willie Ogg, Frank
McNamara, Al Hackbarth all well
known club wingers. At the 154
mark stood S. Davinou Hcrron of
Chicago, former national amateur
champion and the second former
national amateur title holder to go
out, "Bob" Gardner failing yester
day. Accompanying him were Art
Keid of Ardsley, N. Y.: Wilfred
Reid of Washington, D. C. Kern
March of London, Canada, and
norge Sargent of Columbus, O.,
veteran ot many a tournament.
Favorites Qualify.
With these and a few other ex
ceptions, all of the greater playerj
qualified. Leo Diegel, Clarence
Hackney, Jack Burke, John Golden,
John harrell, i-ra,'ik bprogcl and
Gene sarascn were among the well
known "pros" to get through safely.
The six amateurs who obtained a
scat alongside of them were Jesse
Guilford of Boston, National ama
teur champion; Eddie Held, Fred
Wright of J.os Angeles, last Amer
ican to go out in the British ama
teur two years ago; Robert Jones,
jr., the youthful Atlanta (Ga.) star:
John G. Anderson of Siwajioy, N. Y.,
and Frank Godchaux, jr., of New Or
leans.
Today's field was the second of
the three sections of entrants to try
to qualify. Twenty-seven qualified

tal of 51 for the two days. The

the ball over the right field fence
for a homer, scoring Mr. Apperson
ahead of him. Said homer on
Manush's part knotted the count and
was responsible for the athletes
playing overtime.
Game resembled a big league af-
fair from the start. Boss Burch de
tailed "Bill" Fincher to the mound
for the Buffaloes.
"Bill" is a former Texas league
hurler and breezed into town Mon
day. Payne represented the Red
skins on the1 hill and succeeded in
nosing Fincher out of a victory after
an interesting battle.
Allow Seven Hits.
loth hurlers allowed seven hits.
Of the seven hits Fincher allowed,
one was a triple by Windle and three
were doubles. Payne was touched
for a homer by Manush and a pair
of doubles.
Pavne had the best, of the strike
outs, whiffing seven Buffaloes, while
Fincher fanned five Indians. Payne's
control was good throughout the 11
innings, not a Buffalo reaching first f
via walk. The Omaha hurler walked
two. Indians, one in the second and
another in the 11th.
The Indians, however, made their
hits pay dividends. Everything was
compound, with Oklahoma City put
tine the accent on the pound. All
tn. Tnrfians' three runs were earned

two tallies.
McDaniels Walks.
Rip- Bill" Fincher paved the way
for the first Oklahoma City score in
the second inning when he waittea
MrDaniels The next Indian ekied
out, but Windle slammed the ball on
the nose for a double and McDaniels
made tracks across the plate.
After two were out in the fourth,
McDaniels knocked the pellet to left
field for a double, scoring a minute
later when Fisher planted the agate
out in right garden for a single. Tho
latter was soon nabbed trying to
steal second on Catcher Spencer.
The Buffaloes were content to
trail the Indians until the ninth. Not
an Omaha athlete got past second
base during the first seven innings.
In the eighth O'Connor doubled and
went to third on an infield out, but
he "died" on the third sack.
Manush Gets Homer.
Gislason started the ninth with a
single to center. Apperson and
Grantham fanned and the customers
were preparing to leave the park
when Manush Came to bat. Payne
heaved over a couple of strikes and
it looked as if Heinie was due to
Strike out, but
Manusb parked the ball outside of
the park and tied the score.
The tenth inning was a short af
fair. In the eleventh stanza Pitt
started with a double to left, advanc-
. i j , .-.,f . j
ing to tnira on an innem out, ana
scoring the winning run when Tate
sent a long sacrifice out to O'Connor
in right garden. Fincher filled the
hags, but Windle ended the rally by
lining an easy one down to Wilcox
who picked Fisher off at second.
Apperson started ati Omaha rally
in the ninth when he connected with
a single after two hands were down,
but Grantham .brought the game to a
close by skying out to Fisher.
The same teams play again this
afternoon.
