Guilford Putts
With Mashie
lMlironrd National Champ
Advocatea Long Game and
Minimize! Pulling.
New York. Sept. 16 -(Special.)
The feat of Jesse Guilford in getting
the low medal acore at Hrookline
shows that a champion golfer ha to
be able to putt with a mashie on
water-covered ground. Thi requires
resource and initiative, became in a
rainstorm the conditions are not the
lamr on any two grounds.
Guilford i one of those advocates
of the long (tame who argue that the
importance of putting is exaggerated.
He says that during the past season
there has been a tendency to over
emphasize the importance of the putt.
(iolf is by no means a one-shot
game, as the putting advocates would
make one believe, according to tho
chanpion's way of thinking. In this
respect he is like Vardcn, who still
maintains that the most important
shot in the game is the approach to
"the (frecn.
Guilford's work in the qualifying
round made putting under adverse
circumstances look fairly easy. If
he can putt as effectively on the
smooth, dry greens as he did in the
deluge, his argument will have to be
taken seriously:
A Chip of. the Old Block.
Young Dick Gtendon started his
career as successor to hi dad as
rowing coach at tlu; United States

Age Will Improve Her.
New York. Sept. 16. (Special.)
In another season Miss Helen Wills,
the 16-year-old tennis player from
the Pacific coast, will have more
strength and stamina and will have
benefited by the present long cam
paign of tournament play. She al
ready has a variety of shots and ac
curate execution.
The prophecy that the coast girl
will be the world's best woman
player may be realized sooner than
even the experts expect.

Charm British
Champion Horse,
in Gotham Show
New York has a chance thir fall
to see England's most famous liar
ness horse, the mare Charm, who
has swept all classes in the Interna
tionat Horse shows, London, for two
years. Probably Charm is today
the ino?:t famous harness horse in
the wr)rld. She belongs to William
S. Miller of Perthshire. Scfitland, who
judged the hackney breeding classes
in the National Horse show in New
York last year, and there is more
than a good chance of Mr. Miller
sending her over to beat everything
in America as she has abroad.
If Charm comes here, there will
be another international sport con
test, and one that will be unparallel
ed in the horse world. Tt will take
nil the resources of Judge William
H. Moore and his show friends to
j compete with her. For Charm has
I never had to lower her colors to
I iinv horse but once. That was in
! July at the Cambridge Royal show
when, in one of the harness classes.
she was given the red ribbon, and
another famous English horse. Park;
Carnation, got the blue. Outside
of this Charm has been invincible
land was the holder of the cham
pionship for the Royal Horse show
,iii Richmond, England, last year, at
taining the greatest tinnr of all, the
championship at the International
this summer.
When Charm gets to New York
she will have the interesting experi
ence of competing against her own
sire in the ring. Her sire is Field
Marshal, an English harness horse
very famous.
Johnny Weissmuller Let

A little more than a year ago some

in Weissmuller and brought him to
the Chicago Athletic club for a trial.
Rut Weissmuller wasn't fast
enough for them and they let him
go. A sfiort time later he was
brought to liill Rachrarh, coach at
the Illinois Athletic club, who im
mediately saw possibilities in the
chap.

Johnny three months later won his

which his rise was rapid.

Notre Dame Will Meet Armv,

Till.
By WALTER ECKERSALL.
With leading football elevens in all
eclions of the country bard at woik
in preparation for opening games
some of whit h wilt be placed on Sep.
teuiber M), a lot of interest will ren
ter around the many interiectional
iruggles between leading elevens of
their respective nections.
Although there has been strong,
tendency on the part of some college
ollicials to discourage intrmecliou,-il
contents, these games attract so much
intercut and go no far to bring teams
of the various sections into a closer
athletic relationship that they are
looked upon as an elevating influence.
Iowa to Play Yale.
Iowa, which won the undisputed
championthip of the western confer
ence last fall, together with the west
ern title, will go to New Haven on
October 14 to meet Yale, always a
strong contender for gridiron hon
ors along the Atlantic seaboard,
while the Hawlteyes will not be as
strong as the great machine of a year
ago.
In fact, Jones would not have slat
ed The game if he did not know the
tort of material he will have with
which to develop this year's eleven,
Kveu during the spring practice, the
Hawkrye mentor harped on the Yale
game and it is an assured fact that
the eleven at Iowa City is being
pointed to the New Haven contest,
although Iowa will open its season
against Knox October 7. Tad Jones,
a brother of the Iowa coarh. is head
mentor at Yale and it will be inter
esting to follow the offensive and de
fensive tactics of both elevens.
Princeton at Chicago.
Princeton, who was defeated by
Chicago last year on the Tigers' grid
iron, 9 to 0, will come west for the
return engagement with the Maroons
on Stagg fiietd, October 28. This
struggle should eclipse any other in
tersectional contest to be played by a
midwest eleven in this section. If
the Yale-Iowa game were to be
played at Iowa City, it would rank
of just as great importance, but the
fact l'rinceton is coming west, some
thing unheard of as far as the Rig
Three is concerned, makes the con
test the banner one of the year be
tween elevens of different sections.
Whether the Tigers will take the
game seriously remains to be seen.
Last year Don Louric, the quarter
back, and Gharrity, the fullback,
were kept out of the game to be used
in the Yale and Harvard struggles.
Gharrity did go in toward the end of
the struggle when it was absolutely
lost. On the other hand Coach Stagg
can be relied upon to send his entire
strength into this struggle, as a vic
tory will mean a successful year on
the Midway.
Michigan Against Vanderbilt.
Aside from Chicago, two other
western conference elevens will en
gage in intersectional contests. Mich
igan will journey to Nashville to as- j
sist in the dedicatory ceremonies of
the vanderbilt stadium, This will be
quite a game for the south and prep
arations already are being made to
eutertaiir a capacity crowd. Coach
Yost of Michigan and Dan McGuire
of Vanderbilt are brothers-in-law, but
a great contest generally results when
the two elevens meet. The game will
be played October 14.
Indiana will entertain West Vir
ginia at Bloomington in the big home
coming struggle at Bloomington on
November II. The Mountaineers, as
West Virginia is known in football
circles, arc generally a strong aggre
gation. Three Games for Notre Dame.
Notre Dame, which year ip and year
out is represented by. versatile elev
ens, will engage in three matches of
intersectional importance. On No
vember 11 Coach Rockne will take
his team to West Point to meet the
Army in tlr annual struggle. This
clash is generally recognized as one
of the leading in the rast and is
watched closely by those vitally in
terested in football. On October .'8
N'otre Dame will journey to Atlanta
to give battle to Georgia Tech, while
Carnegie Tech will lie met in Pitts
burgh on November 25. In addition
to these three important games, Notre
I lame will engage in the annual eon
tests with Purdue, Indiana and Ne
braska. Kansas, reached by "Potsv" Clark.

"Take my word for it," says Jake,
"in this tournament there will be a
higher class of billiards played than
ever before. Willie Hoppc, for ex
ample, may be among those present.
Many billiard fans think Hoppe has
Hone back merely because he lost to
me in the last international and in
our last challenge match at Chicago.
"As a matter of fart, however,
Hoppe played the best billiards of his
career on at least one of those occa
sions, averaging 4 for the match and
b'J for the last block. When you
come to consider flut Hoppe won his
t'tle with an average of 18, it is clear
that he has not fallen off in his play
in the least.
"As to Roger Conti of France,
Edouard Iforemaiis of Belgium.
F.rirh Hagenlacher of Germany and
Welkcr Cochran of Iowa, I consider
every one of them wonderful players
and liable to beat anybody any time
they start.
Expects to Retain Title.
"Naturally, too, I think I will
again be able to outplay them, hut
only after a tough battle.
"In fact, I will admit at this writ
ing that I feci as though I will have
to play the very best billiards of my
career to retain the world's 18-2 balk
line championship.
