If the two-foot rule were in effect it would eliminate the impossible shots, for when the nearer is at least two feet from the cup and the stymie ball at least two feet from the nearer ball, it is always possible to negotiate a stymie by pitching over the nearer ‘ball or coming around it.” E KANSAS CITY, Mo., January 7e— Oscar Horstman, pitcher, has been relrued by the local team to Louls- ville.

This brings us to the point of wondering just what all the other nations think of us. Diplomacy, the world believes, is more highly de- veloped among the continental na- tions than in the United States, and when one does not control in voting numbers, it is necessary, as every- ody knows. Do hapa a good ilustration of this s the fact that 1924 games were awarded by the international com- mittee to Paris, and the 192§ games to Amsterdam, in spite of the Ameri- can representatives' proposal to hold the 1924 games in Los Angeles should Paris not be available, or in' case the 1924 games went to Paris, that the 1928 games should be held in Los Angeles.

GRIDIRON STAR SPURNS BASE BALL CONTRACT PITTSBURGH, January 7.— Valen (Buck) O'Neil, youthful Pittsburgh athlete, has been requested to report for duty next spring to the Birming- ham Club of the Southern Associa- tion, it was learned today. The re- quest was accompanied by a con- tract. However, O'Neil said he did not believe he ‘would sign at this time, in view of his collegiate fodt ball future. O'Neil is nineteen years old. and is well known in the district circles of foot ball, base bell and &0l FROZEN GROUND OR MUD ° BANE OF GOLFERS NOW G strikes. The latter of the two conditions is perhaps the more desirable be- cause there then is somé way of judging the run or, rather, the lack of run of the ball. During the past week the frozen ground condition has been the almost universal rule and under those conditions good golf is impossible. It is very nice to get off a screaming drive and see it bounding far down the fairway, hclpe‘d by the frozen ground. But the rub comes when the ap- proach shot is played. Bither the ball is struck too hard or is far short. To pitch is impossible, for the ball bounds high and far on frozen ground and no end., Good news for golfers. The past ‘week has seen a cut of 26 per cent in the price of golf balls of a standard make, and it is said this reduction foreshadows further reducticns in all classes of golf goods. Needless to say the cut has been welcomed not only by the thousands of players about the capital, but by the many millions of players throughout the country. It probably will serve to make golf mere popular with the rank and fille of sports lovers, who, in a measure, have ‘been prevented from playing by the cost of the sport. ¥rom the Washington Golf and Country Club comes one of the prize stories of the week. The eighth hole at that course—a par four proposi- tion—was won in twelve strokes by Dr. J. T. McClenahan, playing in a four-ball match early in the week. Frozen ground, a nigh wind and a fairway on which the grass was very short supplies the ahswer. The green at the eighth is on 'a ridge and McClenahan was six feet from the cup in three shots. He put- ted and his ball rolled by the hole and almost out of bounds. Another shot|is unfair. OLF these days is much like the little girl with the curl—either it is very, very good or it is horrid. In either case the golfer has to contend with one of two conditions—frozen ground or ground so soft that the ball picks up a goodly clump of mud when it | Clenahan finally wound up with a 12 to_ win the hole. McClenahan, who is chairman of the greens committee of the club, be- lieves two of the new holes of the new course—the fourteenth and sixteenth ill be ready for play in the spring. The other parts of the new course wili be put into use as they become ready for play. | i _ The golf school to ‘be conducted by Fred McLeod, professional of the Co- lumbia Country Club, at Woodward & Lothrop's store this winter Is scheduled to open tomorrow. Lessons will be given at the school, and play- ers will be permitted to practice be- fore the nets when the opportunity for outdoor golf is not available. Donald Ross, the Pinehurst profes- sional and course architect, who is in charge of the construction of the new T Bpring Club’s golf course, has some new ideas in regard to the } much talked of stymie rule. Ross, who is a keen student of the game, -believes the whole trouble with the stymie proposition is th?: the distance inside of which there no stymie—six inches—is too short. He recommends that a two-foot dis- tance would be far better and. says he believes it would meet with gen- eral approval. He believes thé most serious, objection to the st i» that it frequently brings about an impos- sible shot which no player can ne- gotiate and that in this respect it Lengthening of the dis- went out of bounds.

NNAPOLIS, January 7—The establishment of a system of physi- cal training et the Naval Academy by which every midshipman participates actively in one or more competitive sports and re- ceives a substantial training in every branch in ordinary use, is the monu- ment to Lieut. Commander Willism A. Richardson, who has just been or- dered to duty on the Pacific coast after service of three years as gym- nasium officer here. The ambition of all physical directors and of all educators who realize the place which athletics can fill in the training of youth is to u:! t.hauape.l;:don d:'!l- activel: which all the students are ely interested in athletics during ‘the whole of their scholastic course. This dream {s practicglly achieved at the Naval Academy, ‘and it is due largely to the work of Richardson. ‘The system developed and put in operation by him has been officially T and by the offi- cials of the Naval Academy and the Navy. Its object is to accomplish the physioal, mental and spiritual train- ing of the midshipmen, which is pmactical through athletics, and elso to fit them to supervise such ing'’ upon the ships and at the stations ‘where they may be placed.

VERY sporting man in the country, from tlre Everglades to Sitka for a flash across the old Atlantic next wef:k, where in London o Thursday night Georges Carpentier is going to fight his first battle sinc he and Jack Dempsey pushed their fists at each other in Jersey City last - summer. George Cook of Australia, a newly wlsen heavyweight, will be Island, will bave his lamps trimmEi" .In a mssage from London, Harry Dime, th¢: western sporting man, says that the. British are not betting their: " heads off on the coming battle. They - want /tyvo to one, and even if those who Lancy Carp were loesening up to that y:tent there would not be a grest - deal ‘doing, since even two to onme doesiFt hit the Johnny Bulls as a very lltrs_’luuve proposition. ¢ “AJl a stall about Carpentler's con- dition,” says Dime. “He will be right whe f the time comes. Saw terdmy. A big boy. Strong. ablyr take it. Not too clever. WIill Need to Take It. 1t, will be a good thing for Cook if he! tan take it. For a time will come in ghe battle next week when he wj hawe to. Just one. That is »'s Pl an of battle. He will mush along, - 81 ashing out with wallops and getting a lot of wallops in return, especialiy when he is fighting in close—and then- Mfhen everything s just right—bam! hat is the way he worked it with Dempsey. The trouble was that Dempsey was able to take the kick. A pound more power in that right fwould have startled and shook Demp- ey, and he would have sat dawn on Twol more pounds 2jd down fer Morobably & mine count. Two pounds and a half and all the little birdips, of Jersey City would have begn sing- ing sweet nothings in Jack's ears. To win, Cook has got to survive that right of Carpentier's. He will get if. sooner or later, on the button. If he. lives through it he may muss up the Frenchman and get away with the well known laurel wreath. Over in i England they think Carp is much more clever than Cook. but keen American critics hold thut in this® event Cook must e a dab, indeed, because they do nof regard the light- heavyweight champion 0f the world as extremely scientific. 1n support of this opinion they noint to Carple habit of leading so often wi : right. » &1 Of course that is bad? medicine for~ the average fighter, for almost ant boxer, inasmuch as it leaves himn® open for a grand old gock; but Carg has been doing it all his life and thriving on it. He did it with Jack" Dempeey and got awajy with it. When Dempsey - delivered the first of the finishing blows in tige big fight st was a lead and not m counter.
