GOLF CLUBHOUSE &. FAIRWAY t^f) JjJ DICK.

TEAMS from Terre Haute, Bloomington and Lafayette tvs re on hand today to compete in the first inter-Exchange club tournament of the year at the Meridian Hills course. Other teams over the State were expected to compete. Walter Carter, in charge of the affair which he called a “shindig,” invited all members of the local club to play, charging them only the green fees. a tt tt We failed to mention Thursday that John Hollett, planted his flag in second place position in the fourth of July event at Woodstock. John said he didn't want to get that near fame without some recognition. B tt tt It was erroneously stated In the "Avalon Affairs” recently that the Avalon members would plav for the Jack Carr trophy Wednesday. the printer left out the numeral one and play for the trophy will be held on July 14. bob However, the largest turnout in the history of the club was out at Avalon for the blind par meet Wednesday.. Three players tied for the first prize, hitting blind par on the nose with their scores of net *?3r Carl Geupel scored 101-28-73: George Shaw, 82-9-73, and Ralph Langmaid, 93-20-73. In the draw for the prize they finished in the order named. B B B Second place also required a draw for Settlement. Dr. C. W. Day had 102-30-72 nte, one under blind par, and Frank West had 92-20-72. James Hamer scored 99-25-74, one over blind par. They drew by lot for the prize and Dr. Day won. BUB THERE was a crowd of 106 in the play. That was a mighty big crowd, especially when it is explained that no women took part. The women who play their regular mid-weekly tournaments sidestepped and allowed the men full sway of the course. B B B It had been hoped the Avalon members would be able to get Into the new clubhouse by the first of August, but the directors report weather has so hampered the workmen that it is doubtful if the golfers will get much use from the new ullding and its shower room this summer. After playing the blind par event and finishing out of the money, Jack Tibedeau showed the members that he could shoot for a score if he knew what he was shooting at. and hit it. He scored a 73 the second time around. He came in on the last nine 3 under par to do it. Jack Hung up three birdies and missed another by an inch. Like the rest of the gang, ■we take our hat off to him. INTEREST in the Indiana women’s State meet at Terre Haute Country Club the week of July 16 seems to be growing. Late dope is that South Bend will send its usual string of high class golfers. Miss Naomi Hull Gipson, after a year’s absence from the meet, is said to be contemplating re-entry. She is playing the Chain o’ Lakes course, driving there from her home in Elkhart. Mrs. Walter East of South Bend, also absent last year, is said to be back on her game; Mrs. J. E. Neff likely will head the .delegation of Sc utli Benders and Mrs. Samuel Kraus the Ft. Wayne delegation. In the latter party will be Mrs. Albert Bulson, one of the most promising young golfers in the State. Mrs. Bulson lost a match at the State meet last year because she unconsciously grounded a club on a bunker. B B tt The member-caddy meet at Highland Thursday was a rousing success. .Dick Gant paired with Joe Hesselerave to win the meet with a combined 141 net score. Mai Buell and Kieth Blackwell came under the second with 159 and Henry Simmons and Edwin Beeson were third with 152. tt B tt A program sheet reached us today from the u. S. G. A. committee in charge of the national public links meet at Cobbs Creek course, Philadelphia, where the meet •will be held from July 31 to Aug. 4. This is the fairest test of golf ability that the entrants will find anywhere they claim. The course is 6,152 yards and par is 71. b b a Play to determine the members of the local four-man municipal team to go to the national public links meet will start next Tuesday. Each entrant will plav thirty-six holes over his home course, any of the four local city-owned links. Sixteen will be able to qualify from each course and the sixty-four will start match play Wednesday at Riverside. Play will be eighteen holes at Riverside, the same number at Coffin Thursday, and eighteen each Friday and Saturday at South Grove. The four semi-finalfsts at South Grove will make up the team. However, play will continue at Pleasant Run Sunday •when the city municipal champion will be named in a thirty-six-hole match.

i Final Olympic Trials Get Under Way at Harvard Stadium. , 64 PLACES ARE OPEN 300 Athletes Compete in Track Events. : BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 6.—A cinder path to Olympic glory stretched ahead for America’s fleetest runners today; the green turf of Soldier's Field will pave the way to Amsterdam for the best of the nation’s field athletes. Three hundred track and field stars were to start competition in Harvard Stadium this afternoon with only sixty-four places on the American Olympic team available. This situation promised to result in a general crash of records. The most imposing host of sprinters ever gathered at any track meet, national or international, was to answer the starter’s gun at 2:30 p. m. There was Charley Paddock, long rated the “fastest human,” and Claude Bracey of Rice Institute, Texas, who just this year equalled world’s record time for the century and furlong dashes. One of the disappointments of these final tryouts at Cambridge is the national weakness in the distance runs. Four years ago, when the 1924 Olympic team returned with honors from Paris, it was recognized that this country must develop distance runners or yield many points to the Finns. In four years, nothing has been done. The only appreciable improvement in the distance running situation has been the blossoming of chesty little Joie Ray as a marathon runner. After the two-day meet, the Olympic selections committee will gather at the Boston A. A. club house Saturday night and name the team which will sail from New York aboard the S. S. President Roosevelt next Wednesday noon. The events to be contested here today and Saturday were: 100 and 200 metres dashes 800, 1,500 and 10,000 metres runs; steeplechase; 110 metres hurdles; pole vault, shot put, discus throw; javelin throw: broad jump, high jump: hammer throw and hop, step and jump.
