New;York, Mayrl. The "look before
you leap" advice seems to be applicable
to-golfers as well as - to . persons in all
other pursuits of life. Z. 'A. Hamil
ton, a New fork golfer, didn't do any
close looking: while at Piriehurst, N. C,
some weeks ago, and - was - penalized
with a mud bath. i : - :
Hamilton was golfing.- He banged
his ball from the twelfth tee and the
ball zipped into a small; pond, where It
floated lazily among the bullfrogs and
the water lilies. . i -
A small raft is a fixture in the
aforementioned pond. It is there so
that foozling golfers can board it and
rescue their olf balls. Hamilton ap
proached the water's edge, poised hlm
relf and then leaped a few feet pond
ward toward what he thought was the
raft.
But Hamilton didn't look closely be
fore leaping. Had he done so,-he
would have .noticed that the raft was

round of the San Francisco tournament,
by Chandler Egan, the ex-national am

the iWaverly Country club of Portland:
In the qualifying round, Wilhelm was
tenth among 64 players. He won his
first three matches : with j ease , and
played Egan eveh-up for 2 8 holes. V
fin the morning round of his match
with Egan, Wilhelm won 5 holes, lost
5 and halved 8. Egan started. out like
a winner in the afternoon, round,: win
ning, the third and sixth holes. 'The
first, second, fourth, fifth, seventh and
eighth holes were halved by wonderful
drives by Wilhelm, . who on the next
two holes squared up the match.
Egan- captured the; next . four .holes,
winning the match on the thirty-third
green. Wilhelm sliced his ball out of
bounds .on bis approach shot on the
on the' other side' of the pond, and that
the object-of ihis leap merely was two
boards that had drifted together. .
What goes up must - come down.
That's the law of gravity.' Hamilton
obeyed the law. He came down, grace
fully, but heavily, on the two boards.
At the impact the boards parted com
pany and r Hamilton ! continued his
downward movement until his-; pedal
extremities were burled in 'mud and
the rest of his body; Up to hisjwaist,
was immersed in brackish pond water.

win also be consolation prizes,
twenty-ninth hole. On the next green
he was dead at the hole for a 4, when
Egan made a long putt for a 3. .An
over-approach caused the loss of the
thirty-first bole and a topped drive and
a bunker on the next hole practically
put thee Portland club player out . of
the running. He halved the thirty-third
hole, but' this ended tbe match with 3
tO gO.' " -':
Egan and Wilhelm 'played the final
three' holes as a sporting proposition
and Wilhelm won two of the three.
Wilhelm participated in the amateur
professional play against Jack Neville
and George TurnbulL Joe Martin was
Wilhelm's partner. . '-j .
In speaking-of the Ingleside course,
Wilhelm said: "With the exception of
two . holes you . have to " have., a carry
of 150 to 175' yards on a' drive, other
wise you wili.be in the railroad tracks
or in very long grass. It is impossible
to get out . of this grass without the
loss of two or "three strokes. On the
second and eighteenth holes, two large
swamps r form , hazards, which bother
nearly all players. Tbe fairways are
good and -well bunkered.
' The local player was much pleased
with . the treatment received at the
hands of the Sari Francisco golfers. It
was his first tournament of any con
sequence,? his 5only- other participation
being at the local Garden Home tourn
ament and two at Gearnart. '.

of members of the New I York Yacht

wasi sailed . last . season by Captain
William Dennis and--Harry Haff. suc
cessively, r The Resolute showed her
self i the faster, craft In light airs, but
there is still some doubt as to which
Is the better boat in a Steady breeze.
Thel Vanitie Is conceded the best in
heavy. weather. '
The j Defiance Is a third yacht built
to compete . in the elimination races
to pick .defender for the America's
cup; She 'was not rigged properly
and made a dismal Showing, against
the other two candidates in the few
times, she raced against them.
. Ttoe Shamrock IV was on her way
across the Atlantic under convoy when
war was declared and now is boxed
up in South Brooklyn: ; Sir Thomas

yacht Erin ad the International races
have been postponed probably until
after the war is over. ...
It ' is expected - that the two cun
