Davis Jr. cup at Vancouver, B. C.-,- during the recent Northwest championships a precedent went glimmering. It was the first time that the cup had beon won twice by any club in the association. The winners to date follow: initi Waverley at Spokane. 3 ! I 7 Portland Golf club at Waverley. 11118 Seattle at Seattle. 11I1U Jpfferson Park. Seattle, at Spo kane. lll'0 Waverley at Vancouver, B. C. Waverley's feat was all the more meritorious because nobody figured the local team had a chance to win. Kven after Waverley surprised the fans by qualifying second to the last year's champion four of Jefferson park the odds to win against Jeffer-' eon in the two best ball' matches were quoted as 5' to 3 and even as high as 2 to 1. riayera Paired to Win. Captain Davis debated for some time before the match over the pair ing of his four players Chandler Egan, Forest Watson, - Russel Smith and Guy M. Standifer. It was Mr. Kgan's suggestion that Forest Watson be paired with him and this combi nation was good enough to win. The pairings found Egan and Wat eon paired off against Uriswold and Steil and this match ended all square. Guy Standifer and Russel Smith won the cup by coming home one up on Bon Stein and Clark Speirs. While great credit attaches to Russel Smith for his feat of turning the first nine hol-es against the Jef fersons in 35. or one under par, the real hero of the match was Guy Standifer. Standifer always has been known among hi3 golfing friends as a tough man to beat in the pinch, jtnd coming down the home stretch at Vancouver he demonstrated this quality by turning' in a card of 37 to Smith's 39 and holing putts on the last two greens that saved the day and then won it. Match Square on 17th Green. The match went to the 17th green all square and with Smith out of it and Seattle dead for fours Standifer holed an 18-foot putt across a diffi cult green for a par four that halved the hole. The ISth hole is a par fouc The Egan-Watson match already had finished all square so the players on both sides in the Smith-Standifer-Speirs-tein combination were fully aware that the fate of the trophy hinged on their efforts on this final hole. A huge gallery watched in subdued excitement as the two Seattle entries missed their putts for three and this same gallery broke out in a roar of applause a moment later when Stan difer sunk an eight foot putt for a birdie three and clinched the beauti ful trophy for the Waverley Country club. Russel Smith was lying inside of Standifer for an almost sure throe but he said afterward: "I was mighty relieved to see Guy's ball plunk into the hole." The medal cards for this Interest ing match follow: "Waverley (out) Smith 5 3 3 4 Standifer ... .3 4 4 5 Jefferson Park, Seattle Stein 4 4 3 4 Speirs 4 4 3 4 Waverley (in) Smith 4 5 4 5 Standifer 4 4 4 6 Jefferson Park (in) SU-in 4 4 3 5 L'peirs 4 4 3 3 Waverley Loies Advantage. The Waverley players lost the first two holes to par fours but Smith re couped with a birdie three on the second hole and Waverley made the turn one up as a result of another birdie three on the seventh hole. Smith also sunk a nice 10 or 15 foot putt on the ninth for a half in par four. Waverley's pair lost this ad vantage by taking four apiece on the Its yard 12th hole and the match proceeded all square to the ISth.

Watson won the 13th hole in a birdie four. Both won the 346 yard 14th in fours and both won the 213 yard 15th with threes, squaring the match.

' W .... - ' - I STYMIE GHJUIGE BLOCKED SCOrCII RULES BODY REFUSES TO GIVE SAXCTIOX. U. S. Committee Returns . After Conference Abroad With Xews of Proposed Reforms. Changes In the rules of golf sug gested by the joint commitees of the United States Golf association and the St. Andrews club will have to be rati fied by these organizations before go ing into effect. . : Robert A. Gardner, a member of the U. S. G. A. committee, who re turned to New York from England last week, explained a few of the salient points yesterday. The proposed stymie rule by which the player nearer the hole is per mitted to putt first If he desires will not apply in Great Britain. Members of the St. Anrews committee were willing to meet the American com mittee half way, but stated it would be impossible to get such a rule past the executive committee of the St. Andrews club, so the old stymie rule will prevail in British competition. The proposed change applies only to the United States if ratified by the U. S. G. A. The joint committee has suggested the maximum weight of balls shall be 1 62-100 ounces, this being the equiv alent of 31) pennyweights. The size of the ball was placed at 1 62-100 inches in diameter. The Knglish committee wanted to go back to the floater and had sam ples of these balls on hand, but . this change did not meet with the approv al of the American committee. The proposed changes in the balls, if rati fied, will eliminate a number of pop ular brands. Mr. Gardner does not agree with the statement that the flight of balls has not been Increased materially in recent years, his own experience be injf. to the contrary. v Recently at Onwentsia, when he won the Hamline Memorial tropny h used a 30 ball by way of experiment and set a new recorC of 33 for tne first nine holes. The Joint committee recommended that the penalty for lost ball, out ot bounds, and an unplayable lie be loss of stroke and distance, giving clubs the option of making a local rule for out of bounds entailing only loss ot distance if they so desire.

As the lawn tennis season advances the mounting figures of the entry lists offer eloquent evidence of the increasing popularity of the game and also that some new system must be devised to establish limitations for these lists. It was the Brooklyn championship singles on courts of the Terrace-Kings County Tennis associ ation in Flatbush that established an entry record for all tournaments in this section of the country.' A total of 220 competitors appeared in the draw. . So far as the annals of the game are concerned the previous recorVi was 202 players, drawn in the nation? 1 championship singles, in 1911 for tr.e tournament on the turf at Newport. The previous year the number was 1S1. These figures are interesting, as they plainly show that lawn tennis has survived the war period with a wonderful degree of vitality to put the game to the front.

I.OA" CO, -' . . , . 11 u da u n. Ma a, An exhibition tour comprising some thing more than 100 days and nearly 200 rounds of golf is the undertaking which Harry Vardon. and Edward Ray, English golf professionals, will begin today in the east. No invasion ever made before, not excepting the visits of Vardon in 1900, and in 1913 of the same pair, equals their pro gramme for this year. V hether the two will come west and tour California. Oregon and Washington is yet uncertain, but it Is expected that they will. They ap peared here in 1913 against Harry Davis and Chandler Efctan. If the two play in Portland this fall, Egan and Rudolph Wilhelm. the two who. met in the finals of the northwest champion ships at Vancouver, undoubtedly will be paired against them. In 1913 Vardon and Ray covered more than 30,000 miles and played in 40 matches. Vardon and Ray will compete In only one tournament in this coun try. the national open at Inverness club. Toledo, on August 10 to 13 Frcm their viewpoint the reason for this is clear. They are to receive $200 apiece for each exhibition, and if they spent their time entering tourn. aments they might lose a lot of kale And money is the object of their visit. Specinl Matches Arranged. One of their big special matches will be against Francis Ouimet at the country club, Brookline, Alass. This Is the same course upon which Ouimet beat them in the play-off toy the na tional open in 1913, bagging a 72 to the Englishmen's 77 and 78 or there abouts. Ouimet's partner in the four ball match probably will be Robert A. Gardner, finalist in the recent British amateur championships. Ouimet also is scheduled to oppose the Britishers July 30, paired with Jess Guilford, and again September 23, paired with Max Murston, in Philadelphia. Walter Hager and Jim Barnes are to pair on at least two occasions as the opposing side, and both will meet the Britishers numerous other times with other players. The first will be at the Shennecossett club in New Lon don, Conn., on July 26. and on August 1 Hagen and Barnes will again be the opponents at the Hollywood course, Leal, N. J. Barnes and cither Hagen or Mike Brady will be the op posing team at the Detroit Golf club on August 7. Lots jut Clubs Want Pair.' Only a comparatively few exhibi tions have been definitely scheduled for September, but there are scores of applications. In all probability after their match on September 5 at St. Louis Vardon and Ray will go south. Clubs in Atlanta.
