No One Certain of
Amateur Golf Crown
Veterans and Youngsters
Will Offer Resistance to
the Big Three.
EAST AND WEST TO
FURNISH BIDDERS
Travers, Ouitnet and Evans Must
Fight Hard Battles to Reach
the Crucial Rounds.
By GRANTLaVND RICE.
It is almost impoissibla to look for?
ward to the championship final at
Detroit ?.?herein Travers. Ouimet and
Evan? are all three eliminated. Last
fall at Bkwaooh it was regarded al?
most as a certainty that one of these
three would land the main sprig of
olive, and when the test came Travers
and Ouimet had cut their way through
the rest of the field. They were fa?
vored above F.vans through more en?
during and consistent ability at
match play. And the elastic dope
came 'no'iiding through without a
flaw.
Yet, even a year ago, there were
visible sign? o? impending upsets.
* Chick Evans fell in the flrn charge,
bludgeon-'d out by .he ??ripping te?
nacity of Eb Byers. who soon jumped
to the front by one hole and held his
brilliant opponent at bay by wonder?
ful ?TOOOVeriei and .'.cad sure putting.
Ouimet's Close Call.
Wn;!e Evans fall and passed out,
Ouim?-. on more ;han one occasion
was upon the edge o? disaster. Only
a brilliant ??hot from an almost im
poisible lie at the fourteenth bole
enabled him to beat Max Marston by
one hole in the lirst round. Just an?
other qu:v< r of luck against him and
the amateur champion would have
been merely a spectator for tr.e rest
of the a
And after his close call against Mar?
ston, Ou mi t came to th'
hole against Bill Fownes, 1 down and
with only two holes left to play. Over
the span of thiity-four holes he had
been unable to keep upon even terms
with the Pittsburgh veteran. Two par
fours at the tinuh, which he had been
making steadily all week, would have
rent Fownes against Travers in place
tf Ouimet.
A Year's Advance.
If the big three of American amateur
golf | troublas ?atu year from1
the outside contingent, th^y are almost'
certa.n to draw even greater trouble
at Detroit within th?
Greater because there has been another ?
year's experience and improvement in
play for the younger element, and be- |
cause the ? of Ameri- \
can golf has grown mightily in the ,
past seaaon a season of numerous ,

any given moment, over almost any
course, he is liable to stick in a 73 01 a

is as likely to do it under lire as in a
friendly match.
Carter's icmpt rament for play is
fully on a par with that shown by
Travers, Ouimet and Travis, the three
American golfers whose nervou
terns seem better fitted for the rigors
of match play. If Travers, Ouimet or
Evans meets Phil Carter, he can gird
himself ami key himself for one of the
hardest battl? ? he will know all week.

districi. The Interval Gun, the
longest drivel in America, will find the
Detroit course osada for Ins game.
Tho?e . ihoti that he ? i
