Outlook Poor.
Columbia, Princeton and Yale havo tho
poorest prospects this year, for all three
colleges have suffered materially In the
loss of veterans. Columbia feels this loss
most keenly, for, strangely enough, tho
blue and white's novice candidates; never
seom to be of the right calibre for a win?
ning team. The local college has usually
depended upon her veterans, and the vet?
erans from other college teams, enrolled
as graduate- students at the university.
Of Columbia's 1901 'varsity eleven, not
more than four or live.men will be avail?
able this September. She will lose somo
of hor most valuable players.

GOLFERS MEET ON
FOX HILLS LINK
Try Out for Open Championship
of United States to Be Held
at Boston.
(Special to The Tlmes-Dlspatch.)
NKW YORK, September 10.?A ' try
out" has the same meaning in every
sport-It Is the trial before a. groat pend?
ing competition, und this
week the professional golfers
about New York aro to re?
ceive their try out for the
open championship of the
United States, that Is to be
held at the Myopia Hunt
Club, near Boston, on Septem?
ber 21st and 22d. The pre?
liminary trial Is to be held
at thtt To:--".-Hills Golf Club
on next..Thursday and Fri?
day. The formal-title of.the competition
Is the open championship of' the Metro?
politan Golf Association.
This Is the first recognition of the pro?
fessionals by (the Metropolitan Golf Asso?
ciation since Its start In 1807. Practi?
cally the championship has been forced
on tho Metropolitan Golf Association by
the young and enterprising Fox Hills Golf
Club. It is wrong to rebuke zeal, runs
the old saw, but it Is a proverb evidently
unknown to the Metropolitan Golf Asso?
ciation delegates at tho annual meeting,
for they turned down the Fox Hills sug?
gestions, good and plenty. As a final
compromise, without going Into derails,
tho delegates voted to hold an open cham?
pionship If a club could be found to
finance the tournament. This lot In tho
Fox Hills committee, and tho coming
tournament Is the result. As matters
now stand, there will not be a second
Metropolitan Golf Association open cham?
pionship, unless another club comes for?
ward as patron next year.
Fine Tournament.
But there Is no doubt that tho first
open championship Is to bo a i,no tour?
nament, although It Is limited to the
professionals of clubs In the Metropcjjltan
Oolf Association membership. Chris.
Crosby, the young American-turn m ofes
sionnl, who made the now record te.r tho
links of seventy-one at tho Van Cortlandt
Park tournament in July, Is ono of a few
good men who at'o'not eligible, as his
club, the Arsdale, of East Orange, is
not in tho Metropolitan Golf Association.
As tho annual dues are but (10, and there
are no assessments, It seems to be some?
what of a reflection on their local pride
that only fifty of "the many golf clubs
in tho territory are covered by mon-Jiors
of tho Metropolitan Golf Association.
Marty O'l.aughlln, another youth to make
a good showing In the Van Cortlandt
tournament, will try again at Fox Hills,
as ho sis employed by the Plalnlleld Coun?
try Club, which Is a member. Ono of
tho rensons fo&tin annual open champi?
onship Is to bring forward tho younger
professionals, but all hopes of doing this
aro shattered at tho go In when a club
shirks tho light responsibilities of tho
Metropolitan Golf Association member?
ship.
Thoro will not bo moro than thirty or
forty professionals to compete, but ns
tho list is headed by tho thrice open
champion of tho United Stales, "Will An?
derson, the importune- of tlio contest ns
a trial for tho national event m Myopia
is apparent, Should Anderson win at Pox

To Ihc Editor of the Tlmes-Dlspatch:
As to tho work now being done with
the Grafton pnclt, getting them in rendl
ness for the Grafton-Mlddenex match, i
would/state thnt tho bounds have been
hard at Work since the match was made
last March.
In the beginning, a most careful analy?
sis of the peculiarities of each hound
was made, and through the early spring,
the work consisted of work on tho road.
From July 15th to August 15th, they wero
hunted, a little more than every oth?;i
day, seventeen times In all.
/s Is well known. It Is nmost Impos?
sible to catch a fox In this country, how?
ever, one or two of them tins boon sllght
Iv scared, I assure you. Only twelve or
fourtc-n days ago we ran ono bo hard
that he ducked Into, Manchaug Pond,
only about olcht rods In front of the
hounds, with the pack following and glv.
Ing tongue as they .crossed aftor him. A
farmer witnessed the whole proceedings,
I hough It wns Impossible for us to get
flown close on .account of underbrush.
He ran to earth about a half mile down
the pond.
Got Two Going.
The most Interesting hunt wo have bad
occurred last Wednesday morning. "We
left Grafton nt 3:30 A. M. and landed
in Sutton at 4:30 A.M., eight miles away,
walking the hounds quietly. Wo cast
Into-Cedar Swamp, .where, after a whirl
or two, they soon had two foxes going.
"Sinner." winner of speed and driving
nt the Barre Trials, took- one up the
hill on the opposite-sldo-of the swamp,
with half the pack behind. The re?
mainder, lead by ?'Spi?'' took a cub
out of. the south eiid. Going across the
swamp a half mile away, wo saw a boy
waving his, hands. The hounds: In th<
meanwhile bad made a ring around, and
had come hack near the-boy. When we
got there the. lead hound was snapping
nt the-fox. and would have,caught him If
it had'not been for a;wall. The fox
bolted through a timely opening, while
the. dog was obliged to jump,' and the
fox,' running parallel to the wall to , a
gate, easily gaining a rod or two. This
one was slightly scared, as ho ran In all
about flftoen minutes.
We then brought the hounds over and
put them on the one in'front of "Spin,"
who was handling her fox In gran<l shane.
Thoy went west to Bug Swamp, which
was half full of water,, and the fox
amused himself running from tussock to
tussock for an hour or two. Then they
straightened him out and brought him
back to his home earth. <.
The hounds are the best that thought,
time, experience and money can produce
In America, and they have proved their
worth at the trials of tho Brunswick
Fox Hound Club at Bairre. This year,

On Down Grade.
Speaking, of fox hunting, by the way, it
Is the opinion of Lord Portman, "Doyen"
of masters of foxhounds, who has hunted
over since 1S58. that that sport is dis?
tinctly on the down grade. Interviewed
In the Badminton Magazine, Lotd Port
man attributes the decline to tho advance
of shooting Interests, "Speaking for my
own country,. I do not hesitate to say that
tho sport In It Is far Inferior to What
It was twonty-flve or thirty years ago,
nnw foxes do not make such good points.
"As In the best part ot my open hill
country no outlying fox Is nllowed to live
In the interest of preserving partrld.-e
driving, and as so many of the owners
and occupiers of large coverts do not
hunt nnd close coverts to hounds in tha
early part of the season, It Is only duo to
tho Inrgo extent of my country that In
November and December I am able to
hunt throe days a week, and that with
difficulty."
Lord Fltzhardlngs, another M. F. th,
thinks hunting has much gone down ow?
ing to tho largo number of ignorant, Jeal?
ous peoplo who come out now. Tho Duke
of Beaufort Is moro or loss In agreement
with his thought. Ho doos not see much
difference between tho sport of to-day
compared with that of thirty years'ogo.
