I'd rather sit back and observe It seems reasonably certain now that there will be another change| in the golf ball, though not this season, which is half through. | The dolorous plaints of old John Public, it is said, have reached the hearts of the solons of the United States Golf Association, or at any rate annoyed their ears, until the situation seems to indicate a rem- | edy of some kind. At any rate, a| change. Ideas concerning the change are fairly divided between a straight the duffer, with his ball restored .nd his alibi removed. After all, T don’t play the darned game any more, anyway! British Hope It is not exactly a remote possi~ bility that the English in a rather oblique fashion may partially even up golf matters this year by scor- ing a victory in the U. S. amateur. The chance will come through reversion to the 162 of yesteryear and still another combination, re-| taining the present diamater, 168, and raising the weight to the old | the efforts of T. Philip Perkins, British amateur champion in 1928, who has since moved to America. Perkins in the American open status, 1.62. Some people fancy this this year finished ahead of all the would be a better ball than either | British pros who came over for the the old or the current projectile. No ‘Sense of Humor As for me, feeble and low in mind and generally worn out trying to make the public understand what is good for it, I sincerely hope the U. S. G. A. develops a sense of humor and returns the standard to the old 1.62 as soon as it can be done without undue hardship on the already long suf- fering manufacturers. When one of the leading humor- ous magazines of the country can put on a campaign of months, al- legedly on behalf of the long suf- fering average golfers, and not a line of sensible investigation is of- fered the public, that the best thing to do ‘is to give back the 1.62 ball. However, I wouldn’t go so far as old John Public with his old ball restorsd—and without an alibi. The new ball, thanks to the hard-pressed and frenetic column- ists and professional funny men, has grown in seven months to be the most magnifcent, satisfactory and altogether fool proof alibi in the history of any sport. Women Play Right At the same time our lady play- ers are scoring better with the new ball than ever before, and the ladies are the ones who play golf today as the old game originally was intended to bz played, with a lot of clubs—not so much a long drive and a kick and a putt. But the proprietor of this column was never of the stuff of which crusaders are constructed. I con- sidered the new ball more difficult for the expert to score with and a lot easier for the average player and the duffer. I st.1 consider it so. But I'm far it seems tc me; somewhat | {Ryder cup matches, and he ended |in a tie for seventh place.

The relation of the curvature of the road to the plane of the sur- {rounding Jandscape creates an opti- |cal illusion that makes it look like you're going up when you're going down.
