A. O. team of the Government League, which yesterday advanced in the titular matches by handing the Registers a 12-to-6 setback. Another win for the G. A. O. tossers over the Registers today at 4:30 o’clock at the Washington Barracks would give them undisputed claim to the award in the week-day leagues and the right to encounter Mount Rainier Sunday on the Marylanders’ grounds in the first of a three-game series that will decide the unlimited W. B. B. A A. A. champions. Both G. A. O. and the Registers used their flails freely yesterday, but the 15 wallops bagged by the former were driven at the most opportune times. Tetrault and Loomis figured prominently in G. A. O's victory, as they smacked seven blows between them. The issue was in doubt until the eighth frame, when the victors pushed over four markers to put the game on ice. Edelin and Hooper were on the firing line for the Registers and they were opposed by Bonn, who was nicked for 11 safeties. 1f G. A. O. continues its slugging bee, it prob- ably will point the way to the Reg- isters again today. Petworth Athletic Club scored an impressive 6-to-2 victory over the Loffler Athletic Club as a result of staging a rally in the seventh inning. The victors hope to meet the Fred- ericksburg White Sox next week on the latter's ground: Lehigh Athletic Club is on the look- out for a game with some strong un- limited nine Sunday at 1 o'clock.

Yet it is on the statute| books and so must be enforced The | real, clear logic of it is thi Golf | is a competitive, not a combative | game. In no other case except the stymie can a plaver's game be inter- fered with by any act of his oppo- nent. If the opponent’s ball lies so as to interfere with his stroke in the fairway it may be lifted. One of the great beauties of the game is this fact, in which it differs from many of our other sports where an act of the opponent may interfere at any time; as in foot ball the interferers et in the way of the would-be tack- ler, and that is part of the principle of this combative game, Stymie Rule In Inconsistent. But in golf every means has been taken to give a man a chance to play his own game, no matter what the opponent does, except this one single instance of the stymie, and for this reason in order to make the game consistent, the stymie should be eliminated except in the case where the player lays himself a stymie, in which case he knows exactly what he is doing, can see his opponent's ball exactly as he sees a bunker. And if, then, he does not avoid it. it is his fault. But if a man’s ball lies with a clear putt for the hole and then the opponent plays and blocks that putt, it is the single instance in the game of golf where an act of the opponent | may interfere with the player's prog- ress Many efforts have been force the thousands of players serve the stymie rule, but the efforts| have never been successful.

Every one recog- nizes the fact that it is practically ignored in a majority of clubs in nine- ténths of the friendly matches that are played.
