Held wm In one of his brilliant moods
In tho flnnl round of the Piping Hook
Club's lnvltntlon tournnment OiIh nf
ternoon nnd rather to the surprise of most
Cf the gallory defeatid Max Marston by I
8 up and 4 to piny. Mnrslon wns n gen
eral favorite beforo the match began, but
the. happy go lucky St. Andrews golfer
plnyed nlmost unlif.itnbla golf nnd won
as he pleased.
The byo hnlei were ployed out, nnd
though with the rdrnln of the inntch liter,
he played carelessly Held finished with
n "3, only a stroke nbove par. It n'
one of tho best rounds of competitive
golf that has been played In the metro
politan district thin season.
Deadlly llttto chip shots that put tho
ball close to the cup on green after green
were the features of lleld'H ganm and
enabled him to make his low score, for
the Kround una xoggy after the heavy
rain of yesterday nnd this morning, de- i
prlvlng the low game of much of Its usual
efficiency. Held'B most startling shot of
all came at the eight hole, where ufter .
overrunning the grien Into n trap on his j
necond h chipped out of the. shallow I
hit Into the cup nnd won tho holu with
a.
Mnrston, who had the hole as good as
won In which c.i'n the match would have
been squared shook his hend mournfully
ns he picked up his ball and headed for
the ninth tee 2 down Instead of all
even. Held did not hole any moro such
shots, but ho kept on putting them nlong
olde the. pin until the match ended on the
fourteenth green.
Uoth of the finalists won without n
great ileal of trouble In the morning. Held
had as his opponent Jonn M. Ward, and
though the veteran ballplayer tried
hut hardest he could not hold tho Ht. An
drews champion, who went out in 38,
und won by S up nnd K to ploy.
Mnrstoti In tho inennwhlle was out
playing .lHm"s It, Hyde, winner of the
I'lplng Hocl: tourny this spring. At the.
turn thn Jersey golfer wat 2 up, and
he won by 3 up and 2 to ploy.
For some, rmoii best known to them
selves, Held nnd Marston hurried through
lunch ami set off In the afternoon at a
furious pace, that earrPl them through
the tleld of handicap player at a rate
that left one couple behind on nearly
every hole In spite of their haste, both
played good golf on the outward Journey,
Held getting nway to a splendid stmt
that won the first two hole. Marsion
won Uio short third with n 3, but after
halving tho fourth, Held made a 3 on
the 150 yard fifth and was 2 up agnln.
A comparatively easy putt went wrong
for Held on the sventli after tho long
sixth had bei halved In 5, and Marston
won tho h"le. It looked n though It
would bo all even lit tho eighth until
Hold holed his chip (-hot, but Marston
won the ninth 3 to 4. and turned for
Jinme only 1 down, Held was out In
8". anil Marston In 37.
Pour holes in a row went to Held on th j
Inwnrd Journey. Hn wns playing per
fectly and never gave Marston a chance.
Jtls four straight wins matin him doe. !
jnle. nndi when the fourteenth was halved j
!n R the match was over.
On the bvo holes Held did not over!
exert hlnis'-U. three putts on the fifteenth

this city Thursday drafted a net of reso

both are prepared to turn down Hat

that to give any mote ground would
bo not enly cowardly, but fatal. A year

How i:l organized baseball curb the

which has been discussed by the Nst'.onn.

'he c'ub owners great nnd small of or

weighty deliberation nt an Informal base
bill conference In the Waldorf-Atorla
the day after the close of the worlds
series. To curb the growing discontent
resulting from tho expanding powers of
the Haseball Flayers Fraternity It has
been proposed to suspend operations next
season In every protected leagil" except
tho American nnd National. In other
words, If a suggestion which was fostered
In the council room of tho Natlonnl Com

of tho Nntlonal Association board there

Such drastic action has pased much
further than the stage of loose talk
Th" presidents of the Class A A and Clnv
A leagtus already have sounded their
club owners on the matter, and almost
w ithout exception owners of big in nn:
league clubs havo assured absolute loyalty
to any extreme measure that may be
necessary for the ultimate conservation
of tho game. There Is llttto doubt thnt
leagues of fmnller rntlng will offer nerlous
objection.
Tho campaign of 1914 proved unusually
disastrous financially for the minor
leagues, great nnd small. Tho Federal
Iengue, which had n ruinous year lls-df,
created a ruinous year for both the Inter
national league and the American Asso
ciation Hustnces conditions arc so dull
gcne.-illy that the Class AA circuits would
welcome the experiment of a year's Inyoff

Tho Benson Just concluded witnessed
more failures among minor league owners
than any previous tlmo of organized bise

scure leagues had to toss up the sponge
before the Fourth of July. Others stag

GILMORE TALKS OF
CLUB IN NEW YORK
Says He Will Upturn Hero This
Week to Consider Sito for
Fpilcrnls.
STAILINTJS'S MEN SEfMJHE
I'resldent Jamen A. Ollmore of the
Federal league and Charles Weeghman,
one of the backers of the Chicago club,
havo Just returned to tho Windy City
from New York, where they claim they
wero In ronferenco with capitalists who
are anxious to back a local club In the
Independent circuit. These men an
nounced upon their return homo that In
all probability tho outlaws would Invade
New York proper before the beginning of
the 191D campaign.
Ollmore and Weeghman both denied
that the. visit Mast had any connection
with nn attempt to make peace with or
ganized baseball.
"Wo wont to meet certain men who
havo assured us of their support," said
the ofllclal mouthpiece of the Federals.
"Kevcrnl slten were offered to us, nnd we
were so well pleased with what we saw
thnt wo will return to New York next
week for another conference. Some In
teresting developments may arise at that
time "
Ollmore declnred that one site In par
ticular was more suitably located than
tho Polo Orounds. From this It Is be
lieved that h has reference to property
nt the tast end of the" Fifty-ninth street
bridge, soon to be tupped by n new sub
way and a new elevated structure. It Is
known that the Wards control property
In The Hronx, which (lllmorn Inspected
last spring.
.Simultaneously with (Illmoro's an
nouncement of plans for a New York In
vasion next year comes a story from Cin
cinnati that Federal Interests have se
cured n 'tillable site for a park In that
city While thin Is In keeping with Oil
more's announced Intention of clroult
shifts for 1915, organized baseball mag
nates nre Inclined to regard the presi
dent's utterances largely In the light of
a play for publicity. Just ns they regnrd
the recent activity of the enemy In an
nouncing major league desertion.
That iillmnre has made several secret
visits to New York within the Inst two
months Is well known to the mngnnteji of
tho major leagues, )ut theso Insist that
the, suave executive of tho Federals
Is still hunting for capital and capitalists
to maintain present structures rather thnn
to attempt now. It Is maintained thnt
the Wards are supporting threo of the
eight clubs, and thnt the Chicago
and IndlanapollH Interests nro so heavily
Involved they nro Just able to keep afloat.
