The Ryder Cup Test While the Ryder Cup never has ; been won by a visiting team, the British capturing it in their home soil when it first was put up and the Americans taking it away at Worchester a couple o f years later, it is generally believed I hat our golfers have better than tn even chance in the matches sta ting at Muirfield tomorrow. The first American team which suffered such overwhelming defeat in its quest for the trophy was a scratch affair, its members were not in shape and were easy victims. American supremacy was re-estab-lished at Worchester, and now Captain Waiter Hagen has a strong lineu pto send against the British this week. Archie Compston, a mightly match player, and others among the British homebreds will take a pit of beating, but this year’s team from the U. 8. A. seems to have What It Takes. Glenna at st. Andrews Everyone is wishing Glenna Collett well in her quest of the British women's championship, a title never won by an American golfer. The Provi

dence miss will find a strqng array of | British women aligned against her, including Miss Joyce Wethered, one of the greatest. But the American girl long game is suited to the wide sweeps of St. Andrews, and she has the fighting heart to come through if she gets the breaks. Miss Helen Wills, also abroad in quest of new laurels, has had so many triumphs across the water that one would like to see a sportswoman like Glenna acquire a modest share. . The Penn Relays At Franklin Field tomorrow, the pick of the athletes tff the East and many from the middle west will complete in the hjstoric Penn Relays. These track and field games, comprising chiefly relay events with a number of special invitation features, come a bit early in the year to produce the best results, and no new world marks are anticipated. A little bit later in the spring a sprinter or two may be deevloped capable of competing with Bracey of Rice Institute, but until then the Texas star must be conceded the Year’s dash honors.
