In Afternoon Yale Man Gives Ex
hibition or Ixn? Driving and
Accurate Approaching That
Compels Opponent to Press.
DKTROIT. Mich.. Sept. .-America's
amateur golf champion, a youth from
the West. Robert A. Gardner, of the
Hinsdale Club, Chicago, swept the last
survivor from the Kast to defeat this
afternoon :n the final match of 3B holes
for the National title.' He out-drove
"i outplayed John G. Anderson, of
Siwancy Club. Mount Vernon. N. Y., and
his winning: margin was five up and
four holes to play.
This is the third prreat feat of the
champion's career. He achieved Na
tional recognition as a golfer in 1909,
when he won the amateur champion
nhip from Chandler Ksran, now of Med.
ford. Or., at Wheaton. 111. His other
victory occurred on an athletic field.
As a member of the Yale track team
he held the world's pole vault record
for a week with a mark of 13 feet V.
inch. "
Gardner's victory would have been
even more one-sided had he played his
morning round with the same accuracy
that he displayed this afternoon. An
derson had a lead of one up when the
first 18 hole. were completed. Four
times during that much of their contest
iardner miased putts of three feet or
less.
Short Game Improves.
In the afternoon hie short game was
fully as effective as Anderson's. This
Kave Gardner an important advantage,
for his tremendous drives far outclassed
those of his opponent. Players who
had competed in the tournament ear
lier in the week, said that Gardner at
times drove his ball farther than any
man who figured in the championship
play, not even excepting Jeese Guilford,
of Boston.
The regularity with which the Chl
cagoan dropped his approach shot on
the green seemed to disconcert Ander
son. The latter, who has been consid
ered one of the steadiest Ktars in the
American golf firmament, began to
force his tee shots and mid-iron drivel.
Kome experts thought that Anderson
was compelled to do so to get greater
distance and take his chances with che
uncertain results. Instead of using his
easy, smooth swing, the Xew York man
lunged savagely with his driving clubs
and in the middle of his effort seemed
to often lose direction. His ball ex
plored sand pits, bunkers, tall grass,
wagon ruts, traps and forests and he
climaxed his poor luck by driving into
the brook which guards the fairly short
twelfth hole. This shot occurred in the
afternoon while playing the thirtieth
hole of the match and it practically
clinched the championship for Gardner.
Gardner' Drlvlnsr Excellent.
The Western star, with all the grace
of a trained athlete, displayed little
outward effort. His lithe body braced,
as his lonpr, powerful arms swunr his
club, and the ball usually traveled 200
yards or more down the course. On
one occasion Gardner dropped his sec
ond drive on a green, more than 500
yards from where he had teed off. He
consistently made no effort to hole his
third shot, being seemingly content to
obtain a safe four and. therefore, give
Anderson no chance to cut down his
lead. This method of play proved suc
cessful. It not only improved Gardner's
shot on the green, but had more or less
to do with the fact that Anderson won
only one hole during the afternoon.
The match ended at the 32d hole.
From the 31st tee, 216 yards away, che
Veterner sent his ball high in the air
and it dropped on the green, not far
from the flag. Anderson drove short,
just behind a bunker. His third, shot
did not touch the cup. Gardner tried
for a two. but missed his putt by a foot.
Before he could follow up the effort,
Anderson had conceded the match, but
lardner carelessly tapped his ball into
the opening before the gallery surged
around him.
Spnrtacular Keaturts Larkinf?.
The forenoon medal cards were:
Gardner Out 39. in 3S; total 77. An
derson out 3i and back in 37 for a 7
Gardner equaled par. 37 going out in
the afternoon and Anderson took 41.
Of the 32 holes Gardner shot 17 in
par. was under forfeit five times and
above on 10 occasions. Anderson bet
tered par twice, equaled it IS times
and full below the mark on 12 greens.
The scores were considered fair, but
both rounds were lacking in spectacu
lar features.
The course was much slower than
yesterday, when the sun blazed on
greens that were dry as tinder. Fog
settled down over night and showers
swept the links intermittently, until
noon. The finalists began morning
play in the rain, which was considered
responsible for the empty gallery.
Gardner's poor putting marked the
play for the first nine and the match
was square at the turn. Coming in.
Anderson took the twelfth and four
teenth in par. but his lead was cut to
one up when he was short at the eight
eenth and Gardner sank his second.
Afternoon Gallery Lar.
Kach man started out poorly before a
large gallery, after lunch, and halved

-naerson una Gardner two stymies at
the 20th, but it went to the Yale man.
4-5. Gardner took the lead when his
second reached the 21st green and
Anderson's approach hit a trap. When
me lormer sank his putt for 4-3 vic
tory he virtually was champion because
he held a margin the rest of the wav.
l'oor seconds was Anderson's first chief
difficulty, and he lost the 23d, 24th
-atn. .foth and :!L'd holes. A partial
stymie wnicn Anderson laid on the 25th
gave him that green. 3-4.
Gardner and Charles Evans, Jr., of
Chicapo. were victorious in a best-ball
foursome with Jerome Travers. of Up
per Montclair, X. J., open champion,
and Kraiici. Ouimet, of Woodland,
Niass., the retiring amateur title
holder. lvans and Gardner won
two up.
Kvans had the best medal score, go

in; Ouimet 40 and 37. The previous 32
holes did not affect Gardner's play to
any great extent. He claimed a neat
70. shooting the first nine holes in 38.
The winners received a silver trophy
from the Detroit Country Club.

On the percentage of successful
steals as a basis of ranking base-steal-ers
for the first two-thirds of the sea
son, Jack Ness, of Oakland, with 17
steals and only three times thrown out,
was the nominal leader, just topping
Jimmy Johnston, his teammate, who
led the league for total steals. Boles,
of Los Angeles; Block, of San Fran
cisco, and Carisch, of Portland, had
each thrown out Ness once for the only
three times that he was turned back
when he tried to steal.
Judging from these records, Johnston
gets on base less frequently when
playing against, San Francisco than
against any other cluD. ttepuiveoa nas
been the only Seal catcher to turn back
Johnston in an attempt to steal, but
on the other hand, Johnston has stolen
fewer bases against the Seals than
against any other club. Johnston has
stolen 15 bases against Los Angeles
catchers: 14 each against Portland and
Salt Lake; 12 against Vernon, and nine
against San Francisco.
Johnston has been thrown out Ave
times by Portland catchers, four times
by Vernon catchers, three times each
by catchers of Los Angeles and Salt
Lake and only once by a San Francisco
catcher.
lO Bases Stolen Under Brooks.
Johnston has stolen ten bases while
Brooks, of Los Angeles, was catching
more than he has stolen against any
other catcher. Against Boles lie has
stolen four and against Meek, while the
latter was with Los Angeles, Johnston
stole once. Against Carisch. of Port
land, Johnston stole eight bases, and
asainst Fisher, six. Against Hannah,
of Salt Lake, Johnston stole seven
bases; against Rohrer, four, and against
Lynn, three. Against Mitze, of Ver
non, Johnston stole seven bases, and
against Spencer, live. Against Schmidt,
of San Francisco, Johnston stole seven
bases, and against Block, two.
Spencer, of Vernon, has thrown out
Johnston four times more than any
other catcher. Fisher, of Portland, has
thrown him out three times, and Car
isch, of Portland, twice. The follow
ing catchers have each thrown out
Johnston once: Boles, Brooks and Meek,
of Los Angeles; Hannah, Lynn and
Rohrer, of Salt Lake, and Sepulveda, of
San Francisco.
Risberg. of Vernon, ranks third on
the percentage basis, with 20 steals
and five times thrown out, the follow
ing catchers having each turned him
back once: Sepulveda and Blocks, of
San Francisco: Fisher, of -Portland;
Rohrer, of Salt Lake, and Brooks, of
Los Angeles.
Next on the percentage basis comes
Wilhoit, of Vernon, with 17 steals and
five times thrown out. Boles, of Los
Angeles, has twice thrown, out Risberg,
and the lollowing catchers have each
turned him back once: Fisher, of
Portland: Brooks, of Los Angeles, and
Elliott, of Oakland.
Maggert, of Los Angeles, is third in
W:i i f
the League in total steals for the first
20 weeks, but the percentage rating
puts him down to fifth place, with 41
steals and 13 times thrown out.
Schmidt, of San Francisco, has turned
Maggert back three times: Block, of
San Francisco, twice: Elliott, of Oak
land, twice; Kuhn, of Oakland, twice,
and the following catchers each once:
Clarke, of San Francisco; Hannah, of
.'alt Lake: Spencer, of Vernon, and
Carisch, of Portland
In total steals. Biff Schaller. of San
Francisco, was second only to John
ston, but Schaller has been thrown out
stealing more times than any other
baserunner In the league, and as a re
sult of 23 times thrown out he drops
down to 16th place in the percentage
rating. Boles, of Los Angeles, has
been Schaller's chief stumbling-block.
naving thrown him out five times.
Mitze, of Vernon, and Fisher, of Port
land, have each thrown out Schaller
four times. Spencer, of Vernon: Lynn,
of Salt Lake, and Elliott, of Oakland,
have each thrown out Schsllei- twice
and the following catchers have each
thrown him out once: Meek, of Los
Angeles; Brooks, of Los Angeles; Car
isch, of Portland, and Hannah, of Salt
Lake.
Following records show the total
steals and total number of times
thrown out for each player who has
stolen more than ten bases in the first
0 weeks of the season. The total
steals plus the total times thrown out
represents the total attempted steals.
The total stolen bases divided by the
total attempted steals represents the
percentage of successful steals on

Seals' Injured Player at Ftrst Clings
to .365 Mark Ever Since Being
Taken Out of Game and His
Return Is Doubtful.
That "Bunny" Brief, the Salt Lake
first-sacker obtained from Chicago, will
help the Bees considerably was evi
denced by his stick work in last week's
series. The new coaster hopped up in
his average at bat from .373 to .400 and
as he has already had a chance to get set
to Coast League pitching and has not
fallen by the wayside, it looks like he
will be up and around the top for the
rest of the season.
Jack Ness, the Oakland batting king,
went up to .361 during the series but
that wasn't enough to bump Heilmann
out of his lead. The Seals' injured first
sacker has clung to his .365 average
ever since he wa first taken out of
the game and as reports are doubtful
about his return this season, it looks
like Harry will be there at the tape.

the gamest and most thorough sports

HINT FOR GOLFERS.
It is a good idea to be pro
vided always with two drivers,
one with a shaft considerably
stiffer than the one which is em
ployed on ordinary occasions, and
the time for its use is when there
is a big wind blowing. This is not
so much because a stiff shaft is
really necessary when playing
against a wind, but because in
such circumstances a player is
quite likely to find tha tendency
to hit harder than usual quite ir
resistible. It is a mistake, of
course, for with this harder hit
ting there is more backward and
forward swing in the shaft than
when the ordinary stroke - is
played and the ball is not J-'t in
the same way. The stiff shaf . will
obviate this to a certain extent.

to take a lesson," remarked J. Martin
Watson, professional at Waverley, dur
ing the Gearhart tourney in which
Lieutenant Schneider was a runnerup.
"All he needs is to develop his pres
ent form for greater accuracy. His
distance off th3 tee is fine."
m m
J. R. Straight, present champion of
the Portland Golf Club, surprised him
self and everybody else a lew days ago
by circling the Waverley links tn il
strokes.
J. E. MeWilliams, one of the most
enthusiastic members of the Portland
Golf Club, left for New York during
the week. He expects to remain there
permanently.
E. A. Beals. the weather man. helped
to organize .the Portland Golf Club and
was on the first board of directors.
Owing to a rush of business Mr. Beals
was forced to resign from the board
before the club was actually under full
sail, and he had never been able to set
foot upon the club preserve until Fri
day of last week. Although unable to
make use of the club, Mr. Beals has
retained hi3 membership and expects to
find time to play when he returns from
an inspection trip later in the month.
"I am agreeably surprised." said Mr,
Beals. as he walked around the new
course. "This is quite a club. The
greens are in excellent condition. My
my, I didn't think it possible to get
this far along in less than two years.
V
The Portland Golf Club's team that
meets Waverley today will bo some
what weakened by the absence from
the city of C. B. Lynn, one of the
headliners. It was Mr. Lynn who al
most eliminated J. R. Straight from
the club championships a few weeks
ago. On the ninth hole he had his op
ponent two down and had a putt for a
three when Straight holed out from
the edge of the green with a mashie
shot. This proved the turning, and
Straight ultimately triumphed, and
later downed Rudolph Wilhelm, state
champion, for the club title.
The Portland Golf Club is running a
pipe south about a quarter of a mile
to tap the Garden Home water supply.
This will eliminate alt trouble due to
aok of water at the club.
II IZast Siders Win Both Today and
Tomorrow, Deadlock on First
Place W ill Be Result and Ex
tra Games W ill Be Necessary. '
More interest has been manifested
In City League circles dwring the past
week than there has been all season
and the two games that have been the
cause of it all will be staged this aft
ernoon on the Vaughn-street grounds.
m ursi contest, which will be at
1:20, the East Side Redmen will meet
the Sellwood Dingbats, while Pied
mont's pride, the Maroons, will tangle
with the West Side Monarchs.
At present the Maroons lead the City
League set with a percentage of .77S.
having won seven and lost onlv two
games during the second half of the
season. Jast Side's Reds are just one
game behind them with a mark of .667.
nuperi s monarchs cannot finish bet
ter than third if they win both today
and tomorrow, but Manager Wayne F.
Lewis, of the Dingbats, says that his
club is going: to nose them out of third
place, which can be achieved by the
Sellwoodites by the duo of wins.
Deadlock for Title Possible.
However, the main struggle is on be
tween the Maroons and the Kedmen. for
if the East Siders can win today and
defeat the Northeast Side delegation
tomorrow there will be a deadlock on
first place and extra games will be
necessary to decide the winner of tho
second half of the season.
In what should be styled as the main
event this afternoon, "Jude" Moreland,
who goes to Salt Lake in the Spring,
will twirl for Piedmont, opposing either
Claude Riggs or "Ossy" Osborne for
the Monarchs. As this will be the last
game of the season between these two
clubs, which have been bitter rivals
all the way through, a spirited battle)
should result.
In the liast Side-Sell wood scuffle,
Heiny Dillard for the Reds will work
in the box against either Chet Murphy
or "Skin" Campion. Lewis' Dingbats
have been strengthened by the addition
of Henry, a lengthy first Backer, and
the return of Ray Kennedy to the fold
will add hitting strength.
Battina: Orders Announced.
Fritz McKeen. of the Redmen. is
signed with Portland, while "Red"
Watts, of the West Side club, and
Henry, of Sellwood, seem sure of land
ing minor league berths. Secretary
Harry M. Grayson expects about 5090
fans out this afternoon, with as many
again tomorrow. The City League
players put up a fine article of ball
and are worthy of support.

really is:
"Tie your bull on the outside
and come on in where the good tobacco
is. You've been wasting your oppor
tunity with unnecessary grinding and
spitting; rest your jaws and content
your soul with a little nibble of the
Real Tobacco Chew."
A little chew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco seasoned
and sweetened just enough cuts out so much of the
-4 grinding and spitting.
ASK YOUR DEALER FOpW-B CUT
CHEWING TOBACCO.IT IS THE NEW
REAL TOBACCO CHEW-CUT LONG SHRED.
Take less than one-quarter the old size chew. It
will be more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinary
tobacco. Just take a nibble of it until you find tho
strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and
evenly the real tobacco taste comes, how it satisfies.
bow much less you have to spit, how few chews you take to be tobaoco
satisfied. That's why-it is The Seal Tobacco Chew. That's why it costa
less in the end.
The taste of pure, rich tobacco does not need to be covered up. Aa.
excess of licorice and sweetening makes you spit too much.
One small chew takes the place of two big
chews of the old kind.
((Notice how Ifce salt brings
out the rich tobacco taste.? J
