Rice Favors Ouimet to Win Open Golf Championship "Chick" Evans Has Chance to Retaiii Laure] Amateur Cracks Face Big Field of 160 on Links al Brae Burn To-day Rice to Report Tourney GRAXTT.AND RICE, Amerlca's greatest golf authority, will be on the scrno at Brae Burn this week to report tho open championship for The Tribuiu-. Flis stories will be the next best thing to covering the course yourself. By Grantland Rice America's greatest golf test starts to-day at Brae Burn. "Who will win?" is a query that has been propounded so often that it hat now grown worn and warped. Who can tell?from a fleld composec of such men as Onimct, Evans, Travers Hutchinson, Barnes, Hagcn, McXamara Brady, Tellier and 150 more from the best in the land? If we were ordered by court to pick one winner ln advance, the guess would be Francis Ouimet. Why? Merely because he ls a greal golfer with every club, because he has a rare temperament for medal or matcb play and because he knows the course and piays it well. In a field of this sort one or two mis takes may spell disaster. But there is a general feeling that a score of 304? an average of 76 to the round?will win. Ouimet has as good a chance as any other to reach this mark. He is facing a tough field?one of tho best that ever paraded to the kick-off tee. But uniess the four-year lapse from tournament play has left him a trifle out of focus he .will be the hardest sin? gle individual to beat off. Extending or oxpanding the guess, the winner is almost sure to come frojn this sclect array?Ouimet, Brady. Evans, Barnes, Hutchinson, Hagen and McNamara. Hc-ie are only seven men against loO. But thev are better than an even bet against the field. It must be remembered that othei . goifers have been coming forward ir the last three years and that there is stronger outside talent to figure in ar tipset. But after all there is something about an open championship that givej the "dark horse" a rough track to trav el over, and so very few ever arrive. Kirkby New "Met" King Any lingering doubt as to the name of the new king of the metropolitan golfing district. the logical successor to Travis and Travers, has been wiped sway. Oawald Kirkby, the lean and willowy Jerseyman from Englewood, is the man. He has not only won three of the last f ;ur metropolitan championships, but the only men who have ever beaten him pitice 1910 in this event are Jerome D. Travers and Walter J. Travis. None of the others has been able to take his measure with the title at stake. Kirkby, in the "Met" championship, went to the final with Travers in 1911. He went to the semi-final with Traver.s in 1912. He went again to the final with Travers in 1913. In 1914 Kirkby won. In 1915 it took a miracle round by Walter J. Travis. to stop him. He won again in 1916, and now with the renewal, after a three-year lapse from war, Kirkby wins for the third time and turns over the trophy to the En? glewood Ciub for permanent possession. His play at Brooklawn after the qualifying round was by all odds the best of the field, round by round. He won by consistent, brilliant golf,. He is a much finer golfer than he was some years ago. His game has grown in confidence and a sounder style has helped to place him at the top. The three big rulers of the Metro? politan field have been Travis, Travers and Kirkby. Here are their victorious years: Travis?1900, 1902, 1909, 1915 Travers?1906, 1907, 1911, 1912, 1913 Kirkby?1914, 1916, 1919. Among them they have won eight of the last nine. Metropolitan champion ?hips. With Travis retired and Travers an absentee since 1913, Kirkby has held the field at bay with a fine display of golf, a worthy successor to these two great names of the game. Among Longest Hitters XIAby has a sonnd as well as a ?lashiag game. He is a long hitter. ?Mong the longest. He is a fine iron k*7"' *rom the drlv'n& lron through the maehie niblick.

C Cavagnaro Homer Baker proved he was himself again "by easily running into the earth his three other rivals in the resumption of the Loughlin Derby I at 660 yards, which featured the baptism of the new McGolrick Field of Loughlin Lyceum in Greenpoint yesterday. The international champion won by almost fifteen yards from Jack R. Sellers, while Jimmy O'Brien ! was far back in third nlare. Tho ti'ma. 1 -9.C 4-H shown/-! cnnori -ivVm* +hr> c.uppy and soft track is considered. Baker'a easy viqtory, but more par-< ticularly tho form he showed, was plcasing to his friends. During the last indoor season, the internationnl champion has not rnct with his share of euccess. He is at a disadvantage on an indoor track owing to his gray hound stride and ncar-sightedness. Baker is at his best outdoors, which ho has consistently shown during his nth letic carecr as one of the best half milc runners in this country. The rout of Sellers by Baker must not be taken too hard by the former's friends, as their idol only has had one weck'8 training after enjoying a much needed race. Nevertheless, it is doubt ful if Sellers, even at his best, could have beaten Baker, as the soft cinders slid from under his feet. Baker, a much lighter athlete, found the track to his liking, -while Sellers, a husky youth, revels better on a hard track. BaJker Follows Pace Walter Powe rhade up the fourth starter, but when the crucial test came was not a contendor. For the first lap and a half of the track O'Brien and Sellers dvided the task of setting the pace, while Baker wisely remained witbin striking distance several feet behjnd. Some 200 yards from the | finish Baker challenged Sellers for the ! lead and a tussle immediately ensued I between the pair. However, Baker's j spced carried htm forward and, , i nlthough Sellers called on his stamina, hc found it impossible to keep pace. . i Powe here quit the contest, while I : O'Brien, seeing it impossible to hold ? his riva-ls, slowcd down to finish third. ' , In a Penthathlon competition, which ! had six competitors, Jack R. Fritts, ?New "York Athletic Club, finally suc i ! ceded in breaking his hoodoo of second i places by returning himself the victor. i I Fritts's card showed a well balanced ; ' performnnce, with two first places, one i I second and two thirds, for a total of - , 10 pbin'ts. He showed his grent amount | of stamina and grit by coming up from | the rear in the gruelling 1,500-metre j run to win by 15 yards. Dan Shea, , | Pastime Athletic Club, took second , | honors, while William F. Bartels, Uni . j versity of Pennsylvania, was third with I 15 points. I Hosmer*8 Move Fatal Eddie Hosmer's carelessness in look I ing over his shoulder when only five ! yards from the finish lino cost the | members of the Glencoe Athletic Club | team second place in the 1,200-yard j handicap relay race. Hosmer's act i caused him to stumble, and Sellers, ! who was at his side, soon passed him j to gain second place for the New York Athletic Club. The Paulist Athletic Club also managed to gain third place. The act of Hosmer was unfortunate, for Baker, who, running the third "leg" ! for Glencoe, managed to pull his team 1 from fifth to second place during his : sprint of 300 yards. The first prize | went to the Morningside Athletic Club, j which led throughout to win by 15 ! yards. The rather Hberal allowance of 150 l yards aided Walter Johnson, Swadish American Athletic Club, to win the ; two-mile handicap run. Johnson won a similar long race at the New York A. C. games last Saturday with the same handicap. It has been custom ary for the official handicapper in such , cases to decrease the allowance in. the athlete's next start. Johnson did not suffer this penalty as George P. Mat thews, the handicapper, was not pres j ent. The victor fought out a duel j with John P. Knox, Morningside A. C, ' until the final lap, when Johnson easily sprinted away. Jn the meantime Andy I Craw, Brooklyn A. A., from 50 yards, i had succeeded in closing up on Knox i to beat him in the stretch sprint for | iMtcond place. Jersey City Shuts Out Baltimore in 2 Games Baltimore was shoutout twice yester? day by the 'Skcetcrs at Jersey City, 3 to 0 and 4 to 0. Schacht allowed tho Oriolea thre-e hits in the first contest I and Zellard permitted them two hits in the second. Frank and Kneisch pitched well for the visitors. The Bcoros: ^..r.? FIRST OAMT!

The champion used fourteen-ounce gloves, instead of the eight-ounce mitts, so as to permit him-to put more force into his blows. When the work out was over the champion's partners were bruised and bleeding. Willard himself was bleeding from the mouth. Jack Hempel was punched groggy in tho three rounds he worked. Willard upset him with a right hoolc early in the first session. Walter Mohahan re ceived a blooojy nose in tho two rounds he faced the champion, and the third victim, "Soldier" Stanton, lasted only ten seconds. He was knocked ofT his feet from a right hand blow behind the ear. Stanton, who boxed two days at Jack Dempsey's camp, made two or three passes at Willard and the cham? pion let fly with a right-hander. After taking the punch, Stanton staggered backr then Btiffened and would have tumbled to the canvas if Willard had not caught him. Ray 0. Archer, business manager for the champion, returned to-day from New York, but was reticent on what he had done in regard to obtaining new sparring partners. He said he had made tentative arrangements with two heavyweights, but would not an nounce their names until they had ac cepted the tcrms. Dempsey resumed his training to? day, after a five-day lay-off, and dis played unusual dash and speed. He boxed^four rounds, two each with Ser geant Bill Tate and the Jamaica Kid. Both connected with Dempsey fre quently. Willard charged 50 cents admission *o his camp to-day, while Dempsey continued to collect 25 cents. A. E. F. Boxers Protest Against Toledo Battle DARIS, June 8.?Sixteen members of the American expeditionary force box ing and wrestling teams, who are in training for the inter-Allied games, have written an open letter protesting against the proposod Jess Willard Jack Dempsey fight in Toledo July 4, The letter says: "While we were in training for our la^t trip over the top we received a wage of only a few francs a month per man, and we protest against the proposod fight for which each of the principals will receive thousands of dollars." It adds that Tex Rickard offered $1,000 each to soldier boxers to fight in the preliminaries to the Willard Dempsey bout, but that the soldier boxers preferred to remain in France and have the honor of representing their country in the. inter-Allied games against the fighting men of the Allied armies. Mayer, Brooklyn Boy, LeacJs Cornell Athletes ITHACA, N. Y., June 8.?Kurt A. Mayer, of Brooklyn, regarded as one of the best intercollegiate middle dis tance runners, has been elected cap tain of the Cornell track team for next year, it was announced to-day.

Doctors Fear Evil Eff ects in New Drug Rules One Hundred of Them Sign Call for Meeting of Coun? ty Medical Society to Dis cuss Copeland Measure ." Call It "Serious Danger Their Side of Question Com pletely Ignored by City Officials, They Declare j Opposition among physicians to ; Health Commissioner Copeland's pro ! posed sanitary code amendment, pl?c | ing further restrictions upon drug pre i scriptions, crystallized yesterday in a j call for a special meeting of the New ! York County Medical Association at ! the earliest possible date to discuss ' the propoSal, which, as one put it, "would compel a doctor to finger print and register every patient for whom he found it necessary to prescribe drugs." The call was signed by 100 physicians. Among the signcrs are Dr. Abraham Jacobi, Dr. Robert Abbe, Dr. Walter B. J-ames, Dr. W. Gilman Thompson and a large number of members of the pub lic hoalth committee of the Academy of Medicinc. The request states that the commissioner of health and municipal authorities have completely ignored the medical profession. It reads: "Although the text of this proposed amendment has never been submitted to the medical profession, either by the commissioner of health or by the pub lic health committee of the County Medical Society, its provisions, as gath? ered from the public utterances of the health commissioner, eonstitute a radi cal and serious extension of the ad ministrative and executive powers of the Departmcnt of Health ever the treatment of private patients by the practitioners of this city and oVer the hitherto legally. protected confidential relations betwecn them and their pa? tients. "We regard this proposed amend? ment as a matter of serious potential danger, not only in the present, but as a precedent for the future, and as something not to be allowed to be en acted without exhaustive medical con sidcration. It is for the purpose of preventing innovations of this charac ter that compels this call for a special meeting of the Medical Society of the County of New York to give voice, and a hearing, to the medical side of these questions, which has been completely ignored by the municipal and health authorities to the detriment of the public, of the practising physician and of the profession of medicine." Motors and Motorists Returned members of the A. E. F. can tell stories about the performances of American-made cars ?nd trucks on the other side. that do not always agree with the claims that have been made for certain marques by their pro ducers., As far as can be learned, three American automobiles made good absolutely. Other makes did not, although there were occasional cars of other than the three types that did perform. Watch what cars the overseas men who have the price want to buy and you'll get an idea just what ones made good in the war. Regarding a summary of road con ditions published in The Tribune on June 6, Mr. W. H. Stanlee, of 100 I Hudson Street* writes: "I am quite i sure you could not yourself have gone I over the road from Hightstown through i Windsor to Trenton or received re- I liable information regarding it. I have ! jus-t been over that road twice this past j week and can assure you that it is in j very bad shape. This road is of ma cadam, but it is old and the surfae'e J is worn off and the road is full of ruts and holes over its entire distance, and from Hightstown to Windsor par ticularly is in bad sliape. "I have just been to Philadelphia and back, and, as has been my experi ence over this road for the past five years, there is really no good going bctween New York and Philadelphia. \ Here and there there is a good stretch, like the Cranbury Turnpike from New Brunswick to Hightstown, which is good, but, generally aiieaking, the route j from New York to Philadelphia is very ? bad. From Elizabeth to Metuchen it | is terrible; and, of course, as you i know, it is impossible, with any de- j gree of comfort or safety, to take the i direct road through Princeton. It is my experience that the roads in North ern New Jersey are very, very bad and that Mercer County in particular holds the palm for very bad roads. "It seems to me that two big centres like Philadelphia and New York ought to be connected by a national highway of permanent construction. There is a good deal of truck traffic bctween the two cities and certainly a highway is needed. I hope you will keep up your agitation for good highways be tween all main points." Said Richard Croker the other day: "I notico a good deal of discussion about labor and capital. I think it will continue until the plan of profit-shar? ing is generally adopted by all the great employers of labor." Which is respectfully commended to the notice of Willys-Overland, Timken-Detroit, and other companies in the automobile lield that hav-n't found profit-sharing i panacea for labor troubles, by u ivhole lot. Whatever car it is that Dario Resta is to drive in the International Sweep 3takea at Sluepshead Bay speedway aext Saturday it must be something pretty fast, because it is reported that in his first turnout at the Bay he ivcraged better than 110 miles an lour for 2% miles.

Martin Declares Commercial Service Will Follow Success of Army Test Flight This Month Glenn L. Martin, inventor of the Martin bombing plane, intimated yes? terday that various commercial inter? ests are. ready to establish the first transcontinental aerial freight and passenger servlce as soon as Captain Roy N. Francis, the army flier, com pletes his demonstration fiight from New York to San Francisco. Plans for this epocbal project in transportation, which are purely tenta tive now, were discussed by Mr. Mar? tin in his apartment at the Hotel Knickerbocker. He expressed confi dence in the performance of the Mar? tin bomber which Captain Francis will | fly, and predicted the time is near when passengers will leave New York ! at 3 o'elock in the afternoon and ar j rive in San Francisco at 0 o'elock the following evening. Those interested in aerial transpor ! tation, Mr. Martin explained, hav. fig j ured the cost at about 20 cents a mile, ! or approximately ?600 for the trip to the Pacific Coast?a distance of 2,750 miles covered in thirty-three hours. This rate is flgured to permit a rea sonable profit to the carrier, although changes may be expectcd, as many trial flights will be rcquired to fix a definite fare. Remarkable deveiopments were de? seribed by the inventor. After telling of the commercial uses to which the Martin bombers havo been put, he declared, "We have only scratched the surface of what can be done with air craft." Transcontinental fiying on a com? mercial basis, Mr. Martin explained,de pends on the complete roliability of the dispatching and terminal facilities. He illustrated the need in this way: "Railroads would be of little use with? out terminals and a complete block signal system. The war has demon strated the performance of aircraft, but it has left undeveloped the means by which commercial aircraft can be' reg ulated like railroad trains. The air? craft must use the wireless system, and COLI STARCHED AFFORD GOOD VAI RECT STH UNCOMMOl SERVICE CUutt.

It will soon be a visual pos sibility. We also have a telephone sysi-' tem in process, virtually comploted. but these must each reach the stage ' of absoluto rcliability for aircraft." Wireless Compass Vital Tho wireless direction compass, Mr. Martin said, would have kept Coni mander Towers in the true course if he had used it on the flight to the Azores. He asserts this is one of the most im? portant developments in flying. Mr. Martin indicated that commeW-d cial carriers probably would divide tlus' transcontinental flight into four divis ions. The first from New York to Chi cago, then on to North Platte, Neb.;": from there to a point near Salt Lake City; for the fourth leg to extend to: the Paci'ic Coast. The first commercial carrier to got:' into action was reported by Mr. Martin as the Apache Aerial Transportation Company, of Los Angeles. They have j ordered four 'planes for the service between Los Angeles and San Diego, tv fdistance of 120 miles. The fare is $25 ja trip. These ships will carry twelve | passengers. Transcontinental flying would not be I without comfort, Mr. Martin explaineJdJ With the standard 800 horsepowon bombers, he said, it would be possible.. to carry six passengers and provide berths for an overnight ride. All Convenience* on Bomher The 'plane which Captain Francis will bring to New York Thursday wiH] be equipped with a rest room affc, clothing lockers and compartment for food and baggage. It also will have toilet facilities. The 'plane will leave Cleveland for Dayton Tuesday and will fly from Mc Cook Field Thursday for New York. It is expected the 'cross-country flight will start about June 15, at 3::5o a. inj from Hazelhurst Field, at Mineola! Captain Francis will take with him ok the trip Lieutenant E. A. Clune and one mechanician. The first hop off will take the 'plane from New York to North Platte. The, second will complete the flight to San; Francisco. The 'plane will carry 650' gallons of gasolene in extra tanks in the cocknit. Loaded with the over weight of extra gas the 'plane will weigh 10.000 pounds. Mr. Martin eaid the Netherland's East Indian rro'.'crnment has just place;!' orders for twenty maclnnes, and the Quccn Minc, Inc, of Nc-lson, British* Columbia, was considering a project for carrying heavy minin^ machinery froin a tidewater point back to the moun tainous region by airplanes. \ MONROE .ARS OR SOFT WITH -UE, COR fLE AND MLY LONG Tny* Ar. y.
