Some critics consider that a lump | of mud does not render a ball unfit for play and even state that it is contrary to the rules of golf, as ap- proved by the Royal and Ancient Golf club, to pass such a rule.

Stratford Likely to . Join New Pro. Loop Stratford, June 25.--Unless some factor entirely unforseen develops between now and Sunday Stratford will cast its league, which will be launched at a meeting in the Royal Connaught Hotel, Hamilton, Sunday afternoon. Charlie Farquharson and Roy Brothers will represent Stratford interests at the confab. , The league has passed the embry- onic stage and all that remains to be accomplished now before it becomes an éstablishéd fact is the election of officers and the working out of minor details of operation and club con- duct. The new league will likely consist of Stratford, London, Wind- gor, Niagara Falls, Hamilton, Brant- ford and at least one Toronto club. Two Toronto syndicates are anxious to enter teams and both may be ac- cepted. Strong financial backing is assur- ed and that the league will prove successful is evident from the keen interest the fans are taking in the scheme. The new ledgue will afiili- ate with the National Hockey League and will receive considerable assisi- ance from the various N.H.L. clubs. A Farm for N. H. L. Each N. H.

Suzanne Lenglen perform in the golden jubilee tennis tourna- ment on Wednesday, but Mile. Leng- len would not set foot on the courts. Suzanne had been delayed in reaching the grounds by a break- down in her motor, and soon rumors were in the air that she had had a return of the nervous manifestations by: which shie is frequently affected. The crowds became uneasy, byt Queen Mary sat quietly in her silver grey turban unconscious for a time of the agitation that was going on in the confines of the clubhouse in an effort to bring the temperamental Suzanne to a realization that the Queen was waiting to see her played. Suzanne was not to be gainsaid., She was in an extremely nervous condi- tion, she said. She had been ill overnight, she had suffered from the heat, and finally, she declined to play in two matches on the one day---the singles and the doubles. Borotra was summoned to the royal box to explain as he might the whole sad affair. The Queen was very gracions, and, learning that Mlle. Lenglen had a recurrence of a nervous affection, accepted in kindly manner Borotra's statement, fbnder- ed somewhat explosively in halting English and the apologies of the of- ficlals for the non-appearance of the champion. She could well under- stand, she said, that the indisposi< tion of a player might upset the sche- dule for the day. A : Eventually the tournament com- mittee decided to postpone both 'matches. ] Later Mlle. Lenglen was reported at her hotel ""abed and resting." of mud. PITCHING THE REAL THING. pi t teatury of &pennan t-winning ball ton club of the American League. Stanley Harils won pennants in ed for him, This year the Washington club has failed to live up to expert opinion, because the pitching of the veteran stars has temporarily faltered. Over a stretch of a dozen games 'recently not a starting pitcher was able to finish his ball game, It is hairs for a manager and destroys the morale of the etub. Washington still has a mighty pert ball club and when it gets good pitch- ing is hard to beat. If warm weath- er ever arrives it is just possible that veteran pitching staff will show a reversal of form. If so Washington will make plenty of trouble in the late stages of the race.

What ailed Young Stribling in his bout with Paul Berlenbach? It is doubtful if any challenger ever made a poorer: fight than did the Georgian against the light heavy- weight champion. "Nothing ailed Stribling except the presence of Berlenbach in the same ring," is the explanation Jack De- laney offered to me the other day in discussing the fight. "Berlenbach's ability as a real fighter isn't appreciated," said De- laney. "His style is far from impressive. little or no golor to him. But take it from me he can fight. "He is courageous. His plan of fight is never to retreat. He has in mind only victory and he goes about his work in a methodical manner. "In close, he punches his oppon- ent severely. He can take it.
