THE 3IORXIXG OREGONIAN, MONDAY, MAY 21, 1917. 13 VBRIGHT WEATHER SPEEDS UP GOLF "Leg" of Match for Keats Tro phy Results in Tie Between Fawcett and Sottovia. TACOMANS IN FOURSOMES Guy M After Standlfcr Appears on Links Absence In East Match Arranged Between Sporting Goods Department Salesmen. "Bright weather brought large crowds out to the three local golf links yesterday. At the Portland Golf Club the play ers competed In a handicap against bogey for the second "leg" on the H. L. Keats trophy, and a tie developed between Tony Sottovia and Roscoe Fawcett. Both were 5 up on Colonel Bogey, Sottovia scoring a 78 and Faw cett a 76. Dr. J. H. Tuttle finished next with an 84, giving him 2 up on bogey, and Rudolph Wilhelm followed next behind with a 77 for 1 up on bogey. Unaer the rules of the competition players began the 18 holes with three- quarters of their handicaps in strokes up on bogey. Sottovia's handicap was 11. Fawcetfs 8. Dr. Tuttles 11 and "WilhelnVs 3. P. L. Bishop .finished 4 down, Frank Paris 6 down and C. P. Osborne 6 downi About 30 players were entered In the competition. C. B. Lynn won the first of the four "legs" on the cup In April. After four months the four winners will meet for permanent own ership. Players at the Waverley Country Club spent the day most enjoyably in friend ly four-ball matches with the visitors from the Tacoma Golf and Country Club. Heinrich Schmidt, Western ama teur champion and one of the greatest players in the world, furnished the thrills by "shooting'" a 70 in a four ball match. Par at Waverley Is 71. Champion Schmidt was paired with H. H. Pringle, of Tacoma, against W. J. Noonan, of Tacoma, and Forest Watson, of Waverley. After an absence of several months In the East. Guy M. Rtandifer put in an appearance on the links yesterday and played a couple of rounds In excellent form. Mr. Standifer was a member of the Waverley crack quartet which won the C. H. Davis Jr., cup at the Pacific Northwest championship at Spokane last summer. His presence will strengthen the local club in its coming tournaments. The Tacoma players returned to their homes last night not a bit disgruntled because of the 40-15 defeat handed them on Saturday by the Waverleyites. The local club is scheduled to play a return match at Tacoma later in the Summer. An interesting golf match between player from Meier & Frank's and the A. G. Spalding & Bros, sporting goods departments is a rare treat for the near future. As a warming up preliminary yesterday "Dick" Carlon took his cob webbed clubs out for an airing at Waverley against his future adversary, Lawrence A. Spangler, and succeeded In finishing a trifle behind the wire. Although caddies are not supposed to talk in their sleep it is whispered that if the rule requiring a one-cent dona tion to the Red Cross for every divit had been in force the fund would have been $1.21 richer. The real match Is scheduled for the near future. Fisherman Carlon's golf team con sists of William Gotelli, W. E. Carlon, Walter Hummel, the national hurdle champion, and W. Huddleston. Spald ing's quartet boasts of L. A. Spangler, Tony Sottovia, Adolph Haas and George Anderson, not one of whom can do any thingln athletics except play golf. GOLF STYMIES ARE ABOLISHED Revolutionary Rule Made for West ern Championships. CHICAGO, May 20. Stymies in golf play are abolished by revolutionary rule promulgated by the Western Golf Association today for playing the Western amateur championships. The play will be held at the Midlo. thian Country Club, Chicago, July 9 to 14. The new rule which does away so far as three-fourths of the United States and all of Canada are concerned, with one of the most discussed penalties of golf, also eliminates to a large extent the bother of lifting balls on the put ting greens in medal play. The new rule upsets one of the cardinal rules of the Scotlsh game by providing that the ball nearest the hole shall be played first when both balls are on the putting green. Heretofore, the ball farthest from the hole had to be played first. The new rule was promulgated by President Charles F. Thompson and the directors of the Western Golf As sociation unanimously, without consult ing other golf bodies. The new rule reads: "When both balls are on the putting green, the ball nearest the hole must be- played first. If a stymie exists, and the balls lie within a putter's length of each other, the ball farthest from the hole must be lifted on re quest until the nearer ball has been played, and then replaced in previous lie. Penalty for violation: loss of hole in match play; two strokes in medal play. Under no circumstances, except as above, shall a ball on the putting green be lifted. Players in all rounds must observe this rule, and ignorance of it will not be accepted as an excuse for the breach."

WEST WIIIS PRAISE Head of Theological School Says East Is Surpassed. PATRIOTIC FERVOR NOTED Rer. Franklin Chester Sou tli worth. of Meadvllle Seminary, Struck by Apparent Paucity of Paci fists In This Section. "This is my first visit to the- Pacific Coast. I find a great deal more than expected, or than I have been told. I am amazed at what has been accom plished in the building of your cities and your institutions. The Coast Is strewn with magnificent school build ings. Your faith is greater than ours, for your schools, in -structure and equipment, eclipse ours in Pennsylva nia cities of similar size." Such is a portion of the tribute of Rev. Franklin Chester South worth, dis tinguished leader of the Unitarian Church and president of Meadvllle The ological School, Pennsylvania, to Ore gon and her sister states of the West. Dr. and Mrs. Southworth are in Port land as the guests of Rev. W. G. Eliot. Jr., pastor of the Church of Our Father. The two clergymen were classmates at Harvard divinity school." Dr. Southworth haa been absent from his home field since March 23, as a commissioner from the American Uni tarian Association to visit various Uni tarian churches in the South and West. Lie has completed his survey of New Orleans, the Southwestern states and California, and expects to be in British Columbia next Sunday. Tkree Sou Will Fight. Though the breaking of relations with Germany came a few days before his departure from Pennsylvania, and the real war furore has ris'en since that time. Dr. Southworth has kept closely In touch with patriotic preparations in the East and he has three sons who are to Join the colors. 'My youngest boy has been called with Company A. the Massachusetts Cadets," said Dr. Southworth. "I hes itated, but I signed the permission re quired. Another son will join the Am bulance Corps, while my third son is with the Harvard unit of the United States Signal Corps, which, I believe, is the first college unit of its kind to be organized. There is a prospect that it will go to France very soon. Harvard will have few students left, I fear." Although they are exempted by law from service, various of the theological students in Dr. Southworth's own col lege have already volunteered. Sever al are training at the Officers' Reserve Corps camps. Their "prexy" feels that the discrimination la ill-advised and to be resented. "I disapprove of the exemption of the theological students from conscrip tion," declared Dr. Southworth. "I do not think they should be exempted any more than other students, and I am glad, indeed, that some of our own students have volunteered." West Found Patriotic. In the East, said Dr. Southworth, he had been told that he would find the Western states lukewarm on the sub ject of intervention in the world war. Contrary to that prediction, he de clared, he found strong and outspoken sentiment for the entrance of America as humanity's champion, wherever his travels took him through the South, New Mexico, Arizona, California, and. lately, Oregon. "In the East there is a strong pacif ist element," commented Dr. South worth. "I have not seen as much pacifism in the West as I have In the East. There is a great deal of genuine reluctance among- some pacifists, for reasons of conscience. I hope that the man who conscientiously objects will be dealt with in a large and wise way. To be a pacifist is not necessarily to be a slacker. I think they should be given a chance for other service, when the sentiment is genuine." Dr. Southworth occupied the pulpit of the Church of Our Father at both serv ices yesterday. He will be In charge of the Reed College chapel service this morning, and will address the students. MR.
