The British team, which includes a man of 45 and another of 23, was quite confident that the trophy would return to England. when interviewed before leaving for the United States, and Charles Whitcombe, captain of the team, went even so far as to insure the trophy for the return journey!

The two teams are: Great Britain: Charles Whitcombe (Crews) Hill) (captain), Reginald Whitcombe (Parkstone). Ernest Whit- combe (Meyrick Park), Percy Alliss (Beaconsfield), Alfred Perry (Leatherhead). R. Burton (Hooton), I. I. Busson (Pannal), W. I. Cox (Addington), E. W. Jarman (Prenton), A. H. Padgham United Stater: Walter Hagen (captain), Paul (Sandridge Park). Runyan, Sam Parks, jun..., Olin Dutra. Ky Laffoon. Johnny Revolta, Henry Picard. Horton Smith, Gene Sarazen, and Craig Wood. Hagen will play in the contest, and not merely act in a non- playing capacity.
