British Walker Cup Team Exercises Ahead of Chicago Matches
The British Walker Cup squad began its American workout in New York as preparation for the Walker Cup matches against the United States in Chicago on August 30 and 31. Captain Dr William Tweddell leads nine golfers including Thomas Perkins, the 23 year old English amateur champion who is expected to face Bobby Jones. Perkins and the others mostly lack prior Walker Cup experience, with Maj. C O Hewlett the only veteran. The British have not yet won a Walker Cup series in five matches. The Boston Braves reportedly show interest in Dick Porter of Baltimore, a top International League batter.
