Heading- the American Hat la Francis Qutraet, the aenaatlonal young player who captured the open championship of the-United States laat year by de feating Edward Ray and Harry Tar don, the two English stare, and Jerome B. Travers, the amateur champion player, in one of the greatest golf con tests ever played In thle country. If the numerical strength la taken as the standard there will be no question In England aa to the status of Ameri can golf. Using this year's handicap Dai of the United States Golf associa tion as a rating basis, these players end the club of which they are mem bers, are as follows: Scratch Jerome B. Travers, Upper Montclalr, N. J.;- Francis Ouimet. Woodland Golf club, Boston, Masa. Handicap 1 Charles "Chick" Evans, Edgewater Golf club, Chicago. Handicap 3 Frederick Herreshoff, National Golf Links of America, New York; P. W. Whittemore, Brookline, Mass. Handicap 4 H. J. Topping, Green wich Country club. Conn.; Harold i Weber, Inverness club, Toledo, Ohio; Fraser Hale, Edgewater Golf club, Chi ' tigo'; A. G. Lockwood, Belmont Spring Golf club, Mass. Inslee, Brown and Knapp were not handicapped this year in the list Issued by the United States Golf asso ciation. Inslee and Brown were In the three stroke handicap class last season and Knapp was In handicap 5. Before the entry list closes on May 11, H is' expected that another dozen of America's best players will be en tered in the tournament. Practically all of the United States' present en trants are either In England practicing , or are on their way to the old country. It is but natural that the hopes of the stay-at-home golfer should be .pinned upon the play of the two Ameri can champions, Jerome Travers and Frances Qulroet. The fact that a record entry, -la expected and the luck of the draw may develop handicapping combi nations must be taken into considera tion. Under these conditions there exists the possibility that one of the minor ranked players, either Knglish or American, may come through and prove the surprise of the tournament, as was the case in the American open championship last fall, when Qulmet sprang into international fame by tlo ing and then defeating Ray and Var- ' don in the play-off for the title. The course from a playing stand point is considered an excellent Iff! of all-round ability and the winner of the Although It has but .100 members, the Tualatin Country club, which wan organised last August, is one of the roost prosperous In the northwest. The. club grounds are situated about ono- half mil this side of Tualatin, Or., about a SB minute tide from Portland on the Oregon Electric , The club now owns (8 acres of land and has an option on an adjoining traot of IS acres, which it wilt un doubtedly purchase. The"acreage is of a rolling .character and Is ideal for a golf course, although a number of hazards will have to be built, when: the present nine-hole course is ex panded to an eighteen-hole one. , The olub was not organized primar ily as a golf club, but one for out door recreation and its offloers have selected an Ideal spot on the Tualatin river. The clubhouse, which is built on the plan of a bungalow, is stand ing among tall pine trees near the banks of the Tualatin river. It is a beautiful little structure and cost $5000. It consists of one big club room, a card room, a dining room, a looker and shower bath room, a caddy room and there are six sleeping porches on the side of the building overlooking the Tualatin river. There is a clay tennis court and plans for holding a olub championship tournament will, he formed later. The grounds axe Ideal for picnic parties. The grounds surrounding the clubhouse have been cleared and by the time the gardener gets his grass and flowers in It will bs a very sightly tract. Practically all the members of the club are enthuaiastio golfers, although some of -the members are novices at the game.' Boms of Portland's wealth iest and best known men spend all day Sunday playing this delightful game and while they are far from being good players they think it Is the great est of sports. The. present nine-hole course extends 8004 yards in length-. Par for the nine holes is 87 and bogey Is 41, although very few of the members go over the course Is less than 50 strokes. Ed Frohman, who has played on the course more than any one member has made the course in 47, which is excellent considering the fact that he has played the game but a short time. The longest hole on the course Is the seventh, which is 487 yards from tne tee. The shortest hole Is the fifth, which is 135 yards. The distance from each tee to each hole and par and bogey are: Hole. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Yards. 260 438 350 357 135 324 487 301 350 8004 Par.

NOTES OF THE GOLF WORLD The Multnomah dub "hikers" on their second walk of the season will visit the grounds of tha Portland Oolf club at Garden Home. The directors of the golf club extended an Invita tion to the "hikers" to inspect the golf course and it was readily ac cepted. Sam B, Archer, one of the directors of the club, will waht with the "hik ers' who will leave the Multnomah club house at 9:30 o'clock and walk out the Canyon Road through Bertha and then to Garden Home. The Portland Hunt club has made ar-1 rangements to serve luncheon in its club house to those desiring service. The Hunt club property adjoins the golf club grounds. The carpenters have completed the addition of the golf dub house and yesterday puVup the porch, which ex tends around three sides of the club house. The course has been rolled by a steam roller several times and the ags have been placed by George Turnbull. Laborers iave been work ing on the greens of the first nine holes and the course will be ready for play within 10 days. However, no regular matches will be played until after the first of June. According to George Turnbull, the course will be approximately S125 yards. The longest hole of the tem porary course will be 600 yards and the shortest one 180 yards. There are several natural hazards en the course at present and later on more bonkers and traps will be made so as to make the course more difficult. The Pacific Northwest has two play ers, who are eligible to play for the handicap championship of the United States. They are H. A. "Dixie" Plea ger of the Seattle Golf club and Coun try club and Chandler Egan of the Ex moor Country club of Chicago, who is now living in Medford, Oregon. Egan has a handicap of three ; strokes and Fleager has a handicap of five. There is little chance of these players com peting for the national title. Mrs. E. R.

Willie Lelth, the new profesional of the Tacoma Country and Golf club, turned in the score of 69 for the 18- hole course. Leith made the turn in 33. Jerome; Barnes' record for the course is 65. This is Leith's third time around the course and he, will likely equal Barnes' mark before the summer id over. According to letters received Edward Ray and Harry Vardon will not come to the United States this year to play in the open National championship next August. William T. Foster of the South Shore Country club, while playing the ninth hole of the old course at French Lick Springs, made a wonderful shot. The hols is 340 yards and mostly downhill. He drove 200 yards and bis mldiron second hit the flag, glanced off against a large oak tree on the edge of the green, bounded back, hit the flag again and dropped In the hole. son was harsh bat very effective, and Adams' gams is much improved. Few persons know that golf la one of the most ancient of games and that historians now believe that the two unidentified objects that were named as among others taken into the ark must have been golf clubs. It is said that Methuselah played in th.e first Old Boy's tournament, at the Ararat Golf club, and was pointed out to, ev eryone as the dean, of the gathering. When one of the younger set asked his, age, Methuselah owned up to 960 years. "Tou don't mean it, exclaimed the other. "Why, your game doesn't in dicate a day over BOO." DICKSON COMES TO KEEP GREENS AND TEACH GOLF Bob Johnston, the professional of the Seattle Golf club, says that the new municipal course in Jefferson Park, Seattle, will be the finest public course in this country. The natural formation of the park is ideal for golf, and the view of the mountains, the ocoan and the elty make Jefferson park one of the most attractive spots in the west.. The course will open June 1. - Wilfrled E. Rled, the English golfer, who made a fine record in our Amer ican open championship at Brookline last summer, has just given a wonder ful exhibition of steadiness and high class golf. Playing nine consecutive rounds at Banstead Downs, he had an average of 72, his beet score being 70, snd his worst 73.: His record for the course is 69. -. A cable message urging that Fran cis Ouimet. the national champion, who Is now In England, forsake four-ball matches as possibly detrimental to hi& preparation for the open championship of Great Britain, has been sent by of ficials of the Massachusetts Golf association.

Adams of Chicago, while playing in a tournament at the Rock Island Arsenal Golf club of St. Louis, Mo., last summer, had an accident which corrected a very, bad fault. For years Adams had stepped back Just as he hit the ball, and at the third tee, which Is located on the embankment overlooking the Mississippi river, he, as usual, stepped back and disappeared Into tho Father of Waters.

We are not holding our annual Potlatch tournament this year, owing to the fact that the Northwest association tournament is to be held here on the Seattle links, and the Potlatch cups which were put up in open competition can now be played for this year Joint ly with the championship cups. "The other point I had in mind was it would be a good step along the line of plans that you have had of bring- fng both section together into one as sociation.

I am sure, stimulate the desire of our players to try issues on your own links, and I would appreciate very much any assistance you may be able to give in this direction. "I shall see that all the leading players of. California get invitations to the tournament, and I am sure that, a word of encouragement from you will lead at least some of them to pay us a visit.

Travers Home Olub Changes Its Links Vore Property is Aog.olred sad Holes Changed and Renumbered ia Upper Montclalr Oolf Coarse. Several important chances will be made in the links of the Upper Mont clalr Country club, the home links of Jerome D. Travers. though tho altera tions will in no way interfere with the opening of the links in another week. The principal change will be renum bering the holes so as to make the circuit more convenient. Thus the Barn hole will become the first and tne difficult pond hole, now the four teenth, will become the third. More property has been acquired bv the club, -which will permit of the moving back of the second tee some 70 yards. A long straight drive will be necessary to clear the hill If the player would get home in two shots. New traps will be built on this and other holes. Later on the fifteenth will be made longer by moving the green nack into the woods and making the hole a dlfxicult four. Instead of a hard three and an easy four as at present. When will Portland follow the ex ample of other cities of the! noiith west and Pacific coast and install a1 public golf course? This question, is asked 10 times each day among golfers. A nine hole public course will be opened in Spokane this coming week and Seattle, Wash., is preparing' to -open its 18 bole publio course June 1. San Francisco has a couple of munic ipal courses. Portland has none. T. M. Dunne, who has been working on a proposition to provide a public golf course for lovers of the game who are unable -to pay tne Initiation fees and dues of the local clubs, has had several offers, in which property 'own ers will allow ths city the use of their land, provided they do not have to pay taxes. Publio golf -courses in Chicago and Other large eastern and middle western cities attract hundreds of people every day of the summer and on Sunday it is necessary to give numbers to the players, before they are allowed to tee off. In Chicago, for example, the golfers begin gathering at the links as early as a. m. Sundays. "This city has always been behind other cities In the matter of publio playgrounds," said an enthusiastio golfer recently. "In other cities park era is converted into golf courses, but it is impossible to make courses in Portland's parks because they are on hilly ground." Portland has three golf clubs at present, although one of them will not open until the first of June. Two of these clubs, the Waverly Country club and the Tualatin Country olub, are ex clusive ones and do not, have non-resident membership. The Portland club Is the only one, which has a nan-resident membership and it is expected that a great number of vilstors will Join this club. In other cities visitor have the privilege of playing on the publio courses. Hope for a municipal course in thia city .has not yet been abandoned and It is expected that some agreement re garding tho big tract of land in south east Portland will be reached within the near future.
