prentices settled down and the
Green and White players encoun-
tered considerable difficulty in solv-
ing his delivery. Holmes. while he
pitched a fair brand of ball. was
rather unsteady in his debut this
season. He succeeded in striking
out thirteen opposing batters, five of
which tanned the ozone in the first
mn’lnnings. His inability to locate
he plate caused him considerable
trouble and at one time passing
three successive batters. -

which was a home run over the cen~

fay double and triple in addition to

unted for five 01 the six runs

Can Glenna Collett. most power-

golf enthusiasts are asking us she

will be the first American rules to

Edith Cummings met defeat.

And if she'wlns in this. hfir first
effort. she will have accomplished
something that Walter Hagen. Gene
Sarazen, Bobby Jones, Chick Evans
and Francis Oulmet failed to do.
These brilliant rollers were beaten in
their initial efforts. Hogan's defeat
was decisive enough to be a distinct
shock to his followers in this coun-
try. However. hls feat in winning the
open title two out oi three years fol.

was off his game apparently in his
