New ork, April 8 (P) From a mere private junket against England's picked proa and a passing fling at the British open championship, the forthcoming expedition of the American Ryder Cup team expanded itself today into a concerted campaign for the principal golfing laurels of three European countries.

As befits a pack of golfers setting out to conquer the bunkered world, eight of the redoubtable ten were measured for trim blue uniforms which will render the gaily plumaged Johnny Farrell no more resplendent than the rest. "Well, we won't wear them every day." the Jaunty open champion soliloquized.

"I guess it won't seriously cramp my style." Just to make sure he ordered a flock of bright new togs, perhaps more to the Farrell taste than the sober navy blue flannel with knickers to match and natty white trousers for off-links wear, which was chosen as official garb. Marking probably the first time any considerable groim of pro golfers ever appeared in the same shade, the mass attack upon the tailor turned out to be something of an event and had Jack Mackle, treasurer of the Professional Golfers' Association, wishing the powers that he (Continued on Page 14.) rr hd the leg up and he broke niolt from the slx-furlong pole t9 galloping the complete circle. nnwt colt left full of run and CINCINNATI REDS HERE tion on their part. John Mazzoni, the old "vet," and Charley Frank, as rctund of figure as the mineralite he heaves, probably were the outstanding individual shooters in behalf of Louisville. John went out and smashed the sticks for a 706 and sixth place in the singles.

He kicked in with games of 256, 246 and 204. Charley, the cherub, shot a 728 series in his two-man event in company with. Marty Schmidt, and the pair totaled 1,293 to run into a tie for tenth in the doubles. The 728 of Charles is a tie series with Adolph Unke of Milwaukee, who hit this iigure today to run into first place in the Individual event. W.

Frick and W. Robinson landed in eleventh place in the doubles with a 1,278 total made up of scores of 415. 414 and 449. Frank had a big chance to get a high standing in the all-events, but he bagged only 599 pins in the singles, and finished with a 1,913 count, good for eleventh, place.

New York, April 8 (UP) When Helen Willa first met Her Majesty the Queen of England, the demure California miss wore her hair in long pigtails down her back and her skirta up around her chubby thighs, for "our Helen" was then the tennis prodigy of the New World, making her first appearance at Wimbledon. Next month, at Buckingham Palace, Miss Wills, still a tennis prodigy, again will curtesy before Her Majesty the Queen, but this time her hair will be "up," supporting three white plumes and a white veil, whlit her skirts will be down to her slippers and will end in a long, sweeping train. Helen would have a lot of trouble covering court in the costume prescribed for next month's ceremony, but that will not trouble her upon this occasion, for she is to fulfill that dream of every girl, and is to be formally presented at court.

Mincing steps, an elaborate cou-tesy and an exit walking backwards will replace the bold strides with which Miss Wills darted over the center court at Wimbledon when Queen Mary first watched her from the royal box. Long elbow-length gloves will cover the brown arms of the National champion, and a fan or a bouquet of flowers must be carried, according to court ritual, instead of a tennis racquet.

Sox are to oppose the Colonels Wednesday. The exhibition season will end with a quartette of contests with Sir William Clymer's Buffalo Bisons. The tests with Clymer's cohorts are to begin Thursday.

Phillies' promising prospects have been hard hit by injury to Thevenow, star shortstop.

The Braves apparently are going nowhere, while Brooklyn's assets consist almost exclusively of a capable pitching corps led by the great Dazzy Vance.

In Clyde Hatter, Eastern southpaw, Hembree seems to have a man who can hold his own with Kentucky college competition, and who also is a dangerous batsman.

In the game with Transylvania, Hatter whiffed twenty-three men, striking out three each in five innings. He did not allow an earned run. Errors of his teammates allowed the Pioneers to get four men across the plate. Hatter more than likely will draw the assignment for the first game against Western. The work of Gaines and Leonard in practice this week will determine which of them will get the call in the second contest.

While the usual early season bobbles were numerous, Coach Hembree was encouraged by the work of hl inexperienced team. A weakness that cropped out was 1U failure to hit in the pinches, but more batting practice and play probably will eliminate to some extent that weakness.
