JONES AND HAGEN DRAW ATTENTION Two Americans Continue Rivalry In British Open Golf Tournament New York, June 22—(United Pres; Two American golfers, an amaleut and a professional, will continue a seemingly unending rivalry when they leave the tee tomorrow at Ly tham and St. Anne's in England, in the first round of the British open tournament. The play of Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen, whose victories in this country and abroad have put them at the top scale of American golfdom, probably will receive as much attention as the chamionship itself. Last winter Hagen defeated Jones unmercifully in a 72 hole match in Florida. The younger player remained unconvinced and he bet Hagen a hat—two hats in fact—on their showing in the British and American open tournament's. Thus far Hagen and Jones have competed jointly in ten tournaments. The total medal score for these championships is 2,863 for the professional as against 2,868 for Jones. But if the results of last week's qualifying round for the British open are counted in. Jones would have a four point lead on his rival. The Atlantan’s 134 was so brilliant that Hagen’s 143 semed mediocre. Many of the following that Jones gained in that sensational round were lost Saturday when Hagen, after being four down, to Abe Mitchell. British 'star, came back and played bet , ter than par golf to win, 2 and111. 1 Even though Hagen is conceded, an edge in match play. Jones, adherents believe that the Georgian is the better medal player and is the principal American hope in the British < open. ’ Certainly Jones is the better shot maker. His is picture golf; when he is right there Is no golfer in the world who can furnish such consistently accurate shots. But Jones is the more temperamental. A few had holes and he is likely to blow up. Hagen, is one of the few golfers who actually can forget a string of bad luck. o Preble Loses To Fori Wayne Heralds, 5-1 The Preble baseball team lost an eightinning game to the Fort Wayne' Heralds, at Foit Wayne. Sunday afternoon, 5-4. The game was not started until late and it was agreed that only seven innings would be played.

In the fourth, the Heralds tied the count when Jerry sing-j led and Schrader tripled with two down. The Heralds took the lead at 3-1 in the sixth. In he seventh, Bill Lindeman, of Preble, hit a home-run with D. Kreigh on first, tying the count. Preble took the lead again in the eighth, when R. Lindeman doubled und Luttman and H. Kreigh sacrificed. In the last of the eighth, with one down, Korn doubled and scored on an error on the next batted ball.
