would have rubbed his eyes with
wonderment at the spectacle before
him. ills first thought probably
would have been that his mind had
failed him and he was seeing visions
of 17 or 18 years ago.
Hudkins. known in pugilislic cir-

Adams was given the decision but

America's Year.
Will Bobby Jones or any of the
other leading amateur golfers of the
United States succeed in winning the
British amateur championship soon
to be staged?
It is a matter of record that our
professional golfers have been for
more successful than the amateurs
in their quest of ioreign golfing
honors. ‘ 4
Walter J. Travis is the only Amer-
ican to invade Great Britain and
bring bank the trophy emblematic of
the amateur title. ' ,_
That was in 1904 at Sandwich. so

Connie Mack looks for the tough-

"There isn‘t a weak team in the
league," says Connie. "Boston will
make trouble for the best of them
and the club is improving every day.
"Washington is a great club and
plays, smart baseball. New York has
so much power t the bet it is a
constant menace. Cleveland has
shown surprising early season
strength. The White Sox play brainy

make trouble all the way. Detroit
has power, and needs but pitching.
