Kirk wood, the Australian open champion, who has been playing so well In Brltuln that he is onsldered among the favorites. Juck Hutchison of Chicago is also ranked among the possibilities. The old Ht. Andrews course makes the run-up approach an important part of golfer's equipment. The Americans have given so much time and attention to the cultivation of the pitc shot that it is a question whether they will not find themselves outplayed bv British players able to adapt the' tun-up to the turf, if It be dry and fast, for example, preferring the running to the pitch shot.

The British open golf championship Is ten years more than half a century old. having been instituted by the Prestwick Golf Club, Scotland, in 1860. It was played over that course until 1873, when it was held at (St. Andrews, and then the scene was laid at Musselburgh. Those three clubs had a monopoly of the title Dlav until 11 .11 :25 .11 :30 .11 :30 in the same order until the series is finished.

"The grass in the hollows Is terribly long, ami, as the sheep have been taken off the links, the only alternative will be constant mowing. It must always be remembered that the season has been an abnormally dry one or the Royal 'and Ancient Golf Club might have replenished Its sadly depleted and its lessons and influence on the K. F.

The races will be managed by three Judges, one representing the challenging club, namely, Corinthian Yacht Club of Marblehead, the other repro- senting the defending club, the Indian Harbor Yacht Club, and the third to act as referee or umpire in case of a nonagreement of the two other judges on any disputed question. Philip Mallory, owner of the 40-footer Mistral, will represent the Indian Harbor Yacht Club; Howell Per-rin, chairman of the regatta committee of the Larchmont Yacht Club, will represent the Corinthian Yacht Club, and Herbert Stone, editor of Yachting, will act as umpire.

The Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht Club has always been progressive and it is really the home of corinthianism in yachting. Of these four yachts, two are from Gardner design.

These are Grebe and Montauk. One, Sheila, is designed by W. Starling Burgess and Francis Her-reshoff and was built at Bristol, and the fourth. Genie, was designed and built by Starling Burgess. Something About-the Craft.

Grebe is owned by I. Townsend Ir-vin, John L. Saltonstall and Richard de B. Boardman, who handle the yacht and who are to go abroad, sailing on the Aquitania on July 5. This yacht in the many trials that have been sailed has proved the best all-round boat and seems to be fast under any conditions of weather.

She Is well handled and is wonderfully close-winded. Montauk is owned by W. A. W. Stewart and Winthrop W.

Aldrlch. These two, with J. Lloyd Derby, handle the yacht. She is thought by many to be the heavy weather yacht of the quartet. Sheila is owned by Rear Commo Courao.
