Manghan, a youth of 18, who carried the colors of the San Antonio, Tex., Golf and Country Club, developed today as the "dark horse" of the first leg? of the qualifying; round in the eighteenth annual championship tournament of the Western Golf Association. Man-g-han negotiated the course In 71 strokes two strokes less than were required by Heinrich Schmidt, of the Claremont Golf and Country Club, whose card of 73 carried off the morning- honors. Mang-han's long; carry from the tees, coupled with his demonstration of ex cellence in general field play, has made him the favorite for the entire qualify ing round, which ends tomorrow. IjOT scores were not the rule today. for the notables of the tourney and players who are considered likely can didates for the championship of the light did little in the way of impressive golf. 3 S. Worthington, of the Mid-Surrey Golf Club, England, who recently captured the Irish championship, took 74 strokes for his Journeys, as did E. S. Armstrong, the California cham pion. Practically none of those expected to figure in the championship were elim inated by today's play. The 10 best scores turned In follow: C. S. Manghan, 71: Heinrich Schmidt, 73; E. S.

And let the well alone. Old Verse. The pitcher had the game tied up Until he threw to Cobb; What chance did he have for a tie When Ty was on the Job? THERE are some systems that can stand shocks with impunity. Rube Oldring came from the Mackmen in last place to the Yanks In first place with hardly more than a few quivers. Tet the assignment of playing on a ball club that could win oftener than once a week must have jolted his stout system considerably. -. m Whether they win a pennant or not. the Tanks are possessors of at least one world's record. They have three left-handed pitchers on the club and not a one of them is called. Rube. , That German submarine which trav eled 16 days under hostile warships had nothing on the Athletics. They have traveled under hostile clubs for over two months without the use of a pulmotor or periscope. What is more. they are just beginning the under-sea trip. - Some other club in the American League may land the pennant. But a ball club that has Ray Schalk for a catcher, Russell. Scott, Benz, Wolf gang, Cicotte, Williams and Faber for pitchers, Eddie Collins and Buck Wea ver on the infield and Joe Jackson and Oscar Felsch in the outfield has the material to win by a fairly safe mar- I gin. The White Sox have the strongest combination on offense and defense, the two essentials of success. Leaving any prejudice or partisan feeling aside, the Old Roman's troop has the best chance in sight to face Brooklyn, Boston or Philadelphia in the next world series. The one detail that may interfere will be for Rube Oldring to reach the heights held by Frank Gilhooley; for Frank Baker to cross the .300 mark again and Lee Magee to recover his vanished punch. He that is short in his temper will be long in his score; he that holdeth his philosophy intact will hole his putts. Verily, there is no golfer ever on his game who doth not play at least six strokes better than he thotfght to make. A switch in time may save the nine. A star in the hand is worth two In the bush. To err Is human: to Pecklnpaugh Is divine. Turn about is supposed to be fair play. From 1903 to 1914 the Giants fed yearly on the succulent flesh of the Braves. Dodgers and Phillies. It was a poor season when McGraw failed to win 14 out of 22 games from each of these clubs. Now one of the main reasons why the Dodgers, Braves and Phillies are up around the peak is because they have reversed the menu by feeding heavily upon the Giants. The Duffer Interjects. I don't think I'm a coward; My nerves are steady but 1 rarely give three cheers when I Come to a three-foot putt. Easy Steve. Records fail to prove the entire case on a good many occasions. The records fail to show Bob Shawkey as the most valuable pitcher on the Yanks, yet the hard-working right-hander undoubt edly has pitched the best ball of the campaign for Donovan's club. Regardless of what ball club may win the A. L. pennant, no team within 10 years has made a braver battle against fate than Lee Fohl's Cleveland Indians. This club has met all rivals and mis fortune together without losing heart, having shown as One spirit through the year as any lineup in history. So far as morale goes, Cleveland has enough to fit out two or three average ma chines. e m To Tboee JTeaJring to Know Mho Will Win the Two Big League Pennants.
