WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 5 ee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. EE ---- "GOLF GOSSIP Edited by EVERETT WILSON Chicagoans received a taste of thei super-golf which will be displayed at Skokie in the National Open next week when they witnessed the exhi- bition match at the Idlewild club be- tween Walter Hagen, with Joe Kirk- wood as his partner, and Jock Hutch- ison, with Laury Ayton. Kirkwood's card for the seventy-two holes was low, being one stroke under Hagen's score. In the morning round the Australian went over the course in five strokes under par. The four players will spend the week practicing for the National Open. Mem- bers of Skokie will not be able to play on the course until the tournament has been finished, in order to give all competitors an opportunity to become accustomed to the course. Other near- by clubs have generously offered full privileges to Skokie members for the closed period. A large gallery of spectators is as- sured for the biggest event of the year and one of the most important events staged on the north shore for some time. The Skokie club has just fin- ished entertaining a host of tennis stars in the Illinois State tournament. An indication of the huge attend- ance at community courses on Inde- pendence Day may be found the ex- periences at the Evanston course where players arriving at nine o'clock were notified that they would have to wait two and ore half hours before they could tee off. The crowds were large and early. Private clubs, as well as community courses, report great numbers of players over the week-end. R. O. Lord won low gross in a 36 hole event at Indian Hill Tuesday with a card of 162. Low net honors went to F. G. Butler whose revised score was 142. In the morning round Roger Sherman made the best performance of the day with a 76. F. H. Scott took low net honors in the morning, shooting 83-13-70. E. M. Cummings turned in low card in the afternoon round, winning low gross with an 80. H. R. Butz, 83-12-71, quali- fied for low net in the afternoon round. In Saturday's play A. G. Walker won an 18 hole handicap with 88-19-69. W. B. Fitch came in second, 78-6-72, and W. G. Walling with 84-12-72 was third. After several weeks of brilliant play, the finals of the Four Towns tourna- ment were played at Skokie Saturday. F. M. DeBeers won the Wilmette cup by defeating W. A. Kittermaster, 6 and 4. Dr. J. A. Burrill won title to the Winnetka cup at the expense of M. B. Orde whom he defeated in a close match, 3 and 2. J.D. Galbraith is Evanston champion, a title gained in a match with F. E. Blunden, 3 and 2. G. L. Sibley had seme trouble in win- ning in the Glencoe division from H. C. Mershon, but he held a small mar- gin lead and won out, 4 and 2. al UGK MOTORS WON PIKE "3 PEAK CLIMB Same Lexington Engine That Pulled to Triumph "You may have thought," says W. L. Hayes, Manager of the Chicago Lexington company, 1008 Davis street, "that the two Lexington specials that won first and second honors in the Pike's Peak Hill Climb on September 6, 1920, were racing cars with specially built engines--but they were not. These six-cylinder engines were identical in design and workmanship with thcse you may purchase in any current Lexington model. Just as the athlete, after weeks of practice, demonstrates the effective- ness of his training in a few seconds during a contest, so did the Lexing- ton specials prove the efficiency of the design of the Ansted Engine in the twenty-odd minutes that they took to climb Pike's Peak. But in modern industry we are not so interested in individual perform- ance as in the consistency of the en- tire product. When Cleveland won the pennant on the diamond, and Harvard defeated Yale on the gridiron, it was the proper co-ordination of the efforts of many individuals that achieved success. Luck aften enters into the success of individuals, but when a team gives uniform performance it is positive evidence of co-operation and leader- ship behind the individuals. It was just such support at home that made it possible for the two Lexington drivers, in their 12 1-2 mile climb through the clouds, over a course with 142 terrifying turns, to finish within 5 2-5 seconds of one an- other--far ahead of the field. It is the same co-operation between North Shore Soccerites Annex Championship Cup Last Saturday evening, at the Great Northern hotel, Chicago, the Olson Soccer Challenge cup was presented to the North Shore Soccer club, win- ners of the Chicago District League championship. The North Shore team comprises several local soccer experts. Most of its games have been played at Foster field, Evanston, before large crowds of interested north shore resi- dents. The team fought its way to the top from a lowly beginning a few seasons ago, toppling over some of the best teams in the middle west. Glencoe President Named to Serve on County Board Frederick W. Pcnfield, president of the village of Glencoe and candidate for the office of County Commissioner in the recent Primary election, Wed- nesday was appointed a member of the County Board to fill thee*vacancy left by Commissioner Joseph A. Carolan, resigned. Mr. Penfield was one of the candi- dates on the so-called Miller-Busse ticket which swept the field for an overwhelming victory in the April primaries.
