GOULD ~ ‘S82mEs | 2 hctel room overlooking some Manhattan’s mid-town roofs. We talked about baseball and de- pression. “Now Il tell you” said the Jjudge, “I've played this game for 35 years and can't figure it out.” “Sometimes the going is good and sometimes it isn’t. who figures to be just an old man will go out there—the way Charley White did the other day—and, by golly, he won't miss a putt. Or any shot, for that matter. Judgment, timing, a steady hand and a good eye. “And then you will take a strong young fellow, who ought to be sup- ple and swing easily and what will he do? Tl tell you, if you don't realize what you're doing yourself. He will slice all over the premises.” “But, Bascball..” Did the judge think baseball had survived conditions pretty well, considering the circumstances of both 1931 pennant races being all over early in September? “Now, take this example” went on. this thing. About two years ago I finally got it under control. I grasped it, if you know what I mean. T broke 90 three times in he succession. T stayed awake for a time the night after I scored an 86. “Yes, it was quite simple. 1 didn’t know just why, but at last, after more than 30 years, I had caught the main idea. I could hardly wait to get out there again. 1 didn't wait until a Saturday or Sunday. No, I was right out on the first tee early the next day. I took exactly 110 shots at the ball for 18 holes.” Was there prospect of any gen- eral retrenchment for 1932 or would expansion be the program? “I'm certain of one thing,” the white-haired chieftain of baseball went on. “I can stop slicing by keeping my head down and my eyes on the spot from where I hit the ball; T mean, keeping on 1ook- ing at the spot for a second or two after completing the shot. “I will go so far as to say, sir, T canot sliceatall if T do that. Yot in my early days I was as consist- ent a slicer as any one I ever saw. My ball would hit the ground and finish up its journey by iraveling 2t right angles to the proper line of flight.” , “New Ball? .Now About..” There was still an unsettled mat- tor. Did the judge have any state- ment to make about the new ball? ‘"nembmlwnmjmmm-uu. A fellow | “I've sene a good deal of ' sought out a professional for sound golf advice was when I met Walter Hagen one winter in Florida. He invited me to play a round with him. Throughout the 18 holes he made no comment on my game. It was just a game of golf for both of us. “Afterwards he said to me:| ‘There are some things about your golf that are too atrocious to men- tion. But there is nothing I can do for you. You have played too} long to try any new styles. | “‘No professional can help you! beyond a few minor points and you |will enjoy the game no more be- cause of any instruction. Go right ahead and don't pay any attenttion to cther advice thes efellows will \try to hand you.’'” ! |TEXAS LEGAL BODY { CALLS COLLEGIATE - SPORT A BUSINESS ‘. AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. l1.—Inter- | collegiate sports, as now conducted, 'are not educational but commercial enterprises, according to the Texas attorney general's office. The opinion was relative to dis- position of funds received by state ' colleges and universities from ath- letic contests. When a state school throwsopen |its gates to the general public it 'is engaged in an extra-legal un-| dertaking and may dispose of the money in any manner it sees fit, the opinion held, citing that the | state itself was not engaged in ath- letic contests in a governmental' capacity and that the state’s func- tion was limited to a purely edu- cational field. | ‘The opinion answered a question raised by the state auditor concern- ing funds received at the Univer- sity of Texas from football and other sports. The receipts are not required to be deposited In the state treasury, under the ruling, —————— TRACK COACH AN INVENTOR LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 1.—Henry Schulte track coach at the Uni- versity of Nebraska, has invented a score of devices for use at cinder meets.

Last season the Cougars won the Pacific Coast conference champion- ship after Lyle Maskell, an end. kicked the point after touchdown for a 7 to 6 victory over Southern California, and sunk the University of Washington 3 to 0 with a 48- yard place kick.
