None of the foreign guests who ; Will be present has played the courso, wJth the exception of Abe Alllcholl and George Duncan. Sev eral years ago they played an ex hibition match at Inverness against Bob McDonald, and Chick Evans. - Inverness has not been changed materially in tho Intervening years. However, In the last 14 months there has been a quiet and deter mined plan of development. The first holo has not been nltored. Those who havo played tho courso will find the green lo cated on the samo bluff 400 yards from the toe. .. The second hole has lost Its cacv Indifference. It has been length ened and the green now lies more than 300 yards from tho tee and Is closely guarded against anything! v but an excellent approach. Tho tee on No. t has boon moved r back 16 yards. It was difficult enough In 1920, and, with tho add ed distance, will bo found more so, The fourth and fifth holes have -' not been chnnged. Each Is slight, ly more than 400 yards. ; A sliced toe shot on the sixth will bo welcomed by a generous bunker from which tho second , , eliot should be interesting. Other wise the hole has not been chang ed. The seventh hole, on which Ted Itny played his great too shot and ! Bobby Jones nls poorest approach, lias boon slightly changed at the green. T Tho longer eighth hole will ap, ; pear different. A deep trap In tho 1 , center ot the back portion of tho green, which caused tho cautious ' Vardon to play short in 1920, has been removed. It haB beon ' placed by generous traps on either Jine of the green. The ninth re- i mains unohanged. i'. The tonth green has beon oloso- ty trapped, but still romalns one of . the easy holes. This, however. ; cannot be said of the eleventh holo ; Which was rather Indifferent d , 1920. Its length has been changod to slightly less than 400 yards. Tho ; freen is narrow and undulating. l No 12 has not been changed but ine green on No. 19 has been en- tlrely rebuilt,' This 186 yard hole is trapped as befits a hole of this ; . length. Nothing but a true shot to he green with the brakes sot, will . Keep tne player out of trouble, J:';.' i The fourteenth Is unchanged, ' Buch action was unnecessary, i , ears of experience has nroven this the most difficult hole on In verness. Two traps have boon placed at the right and left aid. nd partially In front of the fif teenth green.. Tho sixteenth has always takon care of Itself and re mains uncnanged. i -rne toe at No. 17 has boon placed back and to ono side In ucn a manner as to necentuato the dog-leg effoct. Tho creek In front of the green, that caused tho downfall of Vardon In 1920, has been covered and In Its place has peon located a formlduble Broun of bunkors. . Traps surrounding tho ' eigh teenth green have been enlarged. Othorwlse It remains tho same. Ly ing In a valley, with bunkors on either aide from tee to groon, this hole, from a spectator's point of view, is one of the outstanding fin ishing holes In the golfing world. .

Jimmy Collins, tho slugger from Rochester, who got his chance when Bottomley went out con tinues to hold down tho Initial cushion like a veteran and his hitting has been hard and timely. Collins supplied the punch that bent the Giants, 6 to 3, In the first game of their "crucial' rlcs at the Polo Grounds. With two out fn the ninth and the score tied, he nicked Carl Hubbell for a clean single that drove acoss the winning runs. The victory In creased the Cardinals' lead over the Giants to two and a half games. Itobiim Tako Fifth. The Brooklyn Hoblns, mean time, chalked up their fifth straight win at the expense of the Cincinnati Beds, 6 to 4, and todny wore only a half-game behind the third-place Chicago Cubs, who dropped a slugfost to tho Phillies, 11 to 10.
