Byrd Defeats Tilson and Captures Trawick Trophy F. G. Byrd Is the winner of the Trawick cup of 1936, and haa again proved his claim to the title of champion golfer of Atlanta. Mr. Byrd won his final match Thursday, defeating W. J. Tilson by a score of 8 up and 6 to play. The affair was all but n slaughter. Mr. Byrd was playing the phenomenal golf which haa characterised tils game through the entire match, and hnd easy sailing nil the dny. Ilia long game was remarkable and hla abort game steady and effective. In hls match against Mr. Tilson he was In the lead from the very start. He took the first snd second holes and only n phe nomenal put hy Mr. Tilson kept him from winning the first five straight, as he did from Mr. Hill on the previous day. Ills work when hls ImiII got In trouble was es pecially noteworthy, nnd hls recovery on the ninth hole, out of the mud, was the best that has been seen during the tourna ment. Mr. Byrd’s score for the first nine holes wss 43, which Is phenomenal, considering the bog-llke condition on the greens and the cyclonic efforts of the wind, which was tearing across the course at a 60-mlle dip. The match ended nt the twelfth hole, when Mr. Byrd was eight up. W. P. Hill, who was defeated by Mr. Byrd Thursday by a score of 4 up nnd 3 to play, perpetrated the prlie bon mot of the tournament after the Byrd-Tllson match, when ha said: “Byrd humiliated roe, but he disgraced Tilson.’’ ! The score on Trawick cups nt present stands: Ilyrd 2, Kill 2. Mr. Byrd won In 1904 nnd 1906 nnd Mr. IIIII In 1903 nnd 1906. By n strange coincidence, I Kith times Mr. Hill won the match In which he bent Mr. Byrd lasted 20 holes, nnd Imth times Mr. Ilyrd bent Mr. Hill he did It by a score of 4 up and 3 to go, HYim Trawick, the donor of the Trawick cup.

The action of the cup commission disqualifying the car was based on the proteet of the Frayer-Mlller car mak ers, who protested that the Lytle ma chine broke down In the race last Sat urday at the Hair Pin Turn, and had to be pushed over the course two hun dred feet by pedestrians In violation of the racing rules. Lytle nnd Dtngley, who were the me chanics of the Pope-Toledo car In the race, filed over a dozen affidavits with the cup commission, which showed that It was not their oar that broke down on the course, but was the Frayer-Mlller car, with Lawwetl driving.

The Na tionals were playing against St. Louis nnd O'Hara scratched out a single and Burch followed him at bat. Came ron pitched him a high one and he lined It down toward the pl'tcher’s box. It came so fast that Cameron could not dodge and the ball cracked him right on top of the head. Fortunately for Boston, It bounded high and back In the direction of home plate and Catch er O’Neill wefit under It and: caught It before It touched the ground. That put Burch out and when O’Neill threw to flrst O’Hnra was easily retired. Cameron got an assist for hls part In the play, but he had.to retire from the game, sufferlhg with a bad headache. NEXT GLIDDEN TOUR MAY BE RUN THROUGH SOUTH Washington, D. C„ Sept. 28.—If the Olldden automobile'tour Is to Be over a Virginia route next year with Nor folk and tho Jamestown Exposition the goal, the cars entered for the trip will 1 meet with great obstacles and bad roads, according to G. Royce Hough, manager of the Pope Manufacturing Company, who was one of the party of three which made the trip from here to Norfolk last week. “It will be a question of the survival of tho Attest," said Mr. Hough today. "There will be no perfect scores. Of course the route Is possible for the tour, but I don't believe any but the best cars will go the whole trip. Many of them will have to ship. I drove our party every foot of the way. At one time, down there In the swamps near Norfolk I was going steadily far three hours and a half and made only 22 miles. That shows you how hard the going Is.” It was proposed to have the Olldden tour start next year from Chicago. In dianapolis and St. Louis with the goal at Norfolk, so that the tourists could take In the Jamestown Exposition at the end of their 1,000-ml!e run. With a view to finding out the advisability of this route through Virginia, Mr. Hough and Mr. Clandy made the trip. “In m.v opinion." said Mr. Hough, "It Is a fairly good route for the Glld- den tour, because of the very fact that there* will be no perfect scores. But also there will be no easy driving be tween Richmond and Norfolk, and I think It will be Impossible for the smaller cars to get through. Only the best will survive." Double and Triple Passes Features of Tech Practice Tech field waa a busy spot Thursday afternoon and In spite of the rain and wind a large aquad of players were out and working like beavers under the direction of Coach Helsman and Assistant Coach Bean. * One feature of the practice which brought wonderment to the followers of football who saw the practice on Thursday tor the flrst time was the be wildering array of passes which were dished out by the Tech team. Double passes, triple passes, for ward and back, this way and that— they were all worked by the Tech can didates and already the members of the team are beginning to take kindly to this novel development of the game. Coach Helsman may or may not work fancy pass plays In the games this sea son, but he Is certainly giving the play a thorough try-out In practice. The hardest thing for the spectators to reconcile themselves to is the for ward pass. It is so contrary to all the old rules and precedents that when the ball goes shooting up the field In t forward pass It seems Inevitable that some fatal mistake has been made, and that the team will be sent back and penalized for that breach of football etlquet. In spite of the fast work that Is be ing done by the Tech team It Is obvious that the material is not up to the standard, and that Coach Helsman will have to do wonders to develop a win ner this season. 8INCLAIR IS EASY.
