|for the game's smeJ BY LAWRENCE PERRY. C??>n?M. I?4. by Tht A**nc? New York, March 1. ? The Koyal aiiu Ancient Golf Club has al last ac" 'pled au invitation of the United Su.tes Golf Association to send over a team ot amateurs this summer to compete for the Walker Cup. This invitation was sent to Eng-1 land last fall aud in reply came word that it was doubtful whether or not: it could be accepted. Definite in-i formation as to this would come lat er. Within the last fortnight the; I'. S. G. A. officials had read in the; press dispatches from London that ai movement wag on foot to raise mon ey for the Walker Cup invasion through such expedients as charg ing admission to the British ama-J teur tournament and the like. Whether or not this is mere golf] gossip, whether or not such a plan ' has been seriously broached, the United Slates Golf Association is not J in a position to say. AU that is | known is that the British amateurs; ure coming over, just how they are to be financed is not known. Maybe the British themselves do not know. liagen and Sarazan played golf at Orlando on Monday, each paired with a local professional. Aud -in cidentally Sarazen, showing all of his real form, had a wonderful 69. Both liagen and Sarazen announced they would play in the British open provided they could arrange to take part iu the American tourney as well. Quite evidently what the two stars wish to do is to e.*8ay the national open early in June and then -huwy? to England lli- ruse to en tor the British affair. They believe that the chance exists this year to do something no golfer has ever succeeded iu doiuy, that is. winning the national open and the British crpen in the same year.. As both tournaments will be played in June, the first in the early j) art of the month, the other toward" the end. a golfer would be able to hold his top form through both events. Usually when a star at tains his best he is able to hold it for ^several weeks. Tlie National open title is worth at least $25,000 in a year to a pro fessional. Tli*' British champion ship would return a similar sum t:i the winner. It will thus he seen almost at a gtan<e that the player who won both these golf features would reap a young fortune.

In the South ern Basketball Tournament here North Carolina this afternoon at three o'clock will play Vanderbllt after having defeated Kenntucky last night if to Ten Game Pitchers Generally Retained But Natirnul League Mana gers A-.-e Letting Few Of Game Slab Artists Go By JOHN 1L FOHTKK 1*24, By The Advance) New York, Mar. 1. ? The Na tional League Clubs, as a rule, have hung on to those pitchers of 1923 who worked in ten or more game*. The Giants let Scott go ? the "pitcher with the totally ruined arm" who was i-he sensation of one world series and the goof of the next. Pittsburg gave Earl Hamil ton an unconditional release after some of the fans had clamored for two years /or his head. Drey fu as had clung to hint for two years, hoping his cunning would return. The Phillies dropped Head to Fort Worth and 13ehan to Mobile. The latter had speed and a hop in the spring of 1923. but both of them lagged when they got North. Behan was one of those pitchers who had] pitched his club, up in Canada, t0| victory the season before. Seme times such pitchers can't) i get over that sort of thins for twoi or three years, iioehler was a man] ol steel out West when Pittsburgh took him on for the -season of- 19-2-3 and at Hot Springs Manager Mc Kechnie could see nothing for him but a long string of victories, with possible championship for the Pi rates. Against 38 wins and 13 losses for Tulsa the season before, i he won one game for Pittsburgh and lost three. Now he's out on the coast and with him is Kunz. a _coust_ " pitcher who had speed when he was chasing the golden fleece over the Sierras, but who had nothing but a uniform when h?- essayed to pitch for Pittsburgh. The braves have permitted Gillingim. one of the. originally registered major league spit bailers, to go to lieaumont. It's a long ride from Hoston, but don't tlrink he is going where the going is easy, because a bull player must show something besides a glove to get by in the Texas League. Of those pitchers who did not pitch ten* games for National clufys, is John Smith, long in service since' lie first essayed to help the Giants after he was through with Colum bia. who has been sent by Brooklyn to Indianapolis. Smith is a pitcher with a real curve, but despite the fact that real pitchers are badly needed, he can*t make bis perform when he wants to. Hall players say that if "Smithy" would put the third strike over he would be a wonder. Cincinnati has sent Keck out to Vernon. The Cubs have sent Fus sel to Wichita Falls artd Stueland lias gone from Chicago to Seattle. Not so many faces have disap peared. Hut what may happen If the coming Season doesn't ripen more fruit is something else again. Africa is buying rail equipment from Germany. It is not true that a German locomotive snorts at sight of a Frenchman. LET'S GO! If you haven t trlwl Fleer'* Checker berry Chewlnft <ium yet. now 1? i he time to begin.

GAME CLOSE HERE FRIDAY EVENING Elizabeth (lily High School Girls Defeated by Washing ton Girls" Team by Score ol 23 to 22. i In the best exhibition of basket t ball seen on the local court this sea-; son. the E. City High School girls I lost last night to Washington by the| close score of 23 to 22. There wasj not a second during the game when 1 play was not fast and snappy, since t the Hestcity girls were determined to make things interesting for the local j supporters. The Washington girls have a long string of victories be-; hind them, and are generally recog- 1 nized to be one of the best teams in ( Northeastern North Carolina. The local girls started in with aj rush. Belle Miller caging three field i goals almost before the visitors! could get their bearing. The first] quarter ended with Elizabeth City | 6. Washington 3. In the second j quarter there was a terrific "come-, back" urn the part of the visitors, j who scored 13 points, while the lo- j cals scored only o?e, the first half . ending E. City 7, Washington 16. In the third and fourth quarters I the local cagers clearly hud the ad- j | vantage, scoring ,15 points to Wash- | itngton's 7, but lime was too short to; overcome the lead of the seconds quarter. While each member of the local I squad gave a good account of her- j self, the game played by Belle Miller should be given first place. Of the -22 l)oinrs"3\Tjnle"liy The locals. "Mttlef is credited with 16. throwing 5 field goals and 6 foul goals. For the visitors, Kborn made the record of 5 field goals and 3 foul goals. The line up follows: Kliz.

By f h r Adtanrr) New York. March 1. -The modi fied draft, as it was accepted by the Pacific Coast League, has an angle that perhaps wasn't figured on by the clubs when they went in for it. They knew, of course, that it meant having their best players drafted uway from them. llut probably it didn't occur to a lot of them that this same draft wiruld give the play ers a club to swing on thcui. Waner, the ph?tiom of tho San Francisco Clu-b, is busy Just now trying to hammer the lesson in. Waner. like Khyne and Valla, two other San Francisco stars, figures that hu is due either to be drafted or sold at a good round sum by the end of the 19 24 season. According ly. he has not yet signed a contract, holding out for a salary for the com ing season that will reflect some of the gold he figures h?- is worth to1 the San Francisco Club. San Francisco has won the cham pionship of the coast twice, in suc cession. No club has won it three times, and the baseball magnates of that city are eager to da it. That;, of course, gives added force to Wall er's demands. San Francisco ami Kansas City will play some exhibition Rallies lit*-, fore the 1924 season opens, hilling thi-m as for the national champion ship of the minor leagues. Kansas! City defeated Baltimore itr the fall sea st .-n of 1923 and If Kansas City' Ts~ willing to accept a challenge from I San Francisco, there seems t ? ? lie no reason why it should not call it a title contest. That a spring national minor championship series should follow a fall national minor championship j series Is something new in baseball. , It was made possible by the fact that Kansas City Is going to train on the coast, a long ride from home for a minor league championship outfit. Tcroto. of the Int? rnatioal L? ague will train at Macon, a city that has turm-d out many champions. If To ronto had better material for 1924. it might appear as if then- wer*? a I good omen in going to Macon. Ro chester will go to Savannah, the old stamping ground of the Giants, and Buffalo Is to train at Rome, Ga. 1 1 is probable that Prnsacola will g?-t a major league club in 1925. There is talk of it. The club In question would likt> to establish a permanent t mining camp where it could g*-t a good turf diamond. Good tuif fields are what have taken scr many major leagues clubs to Flori da.
