Harry laid them dead from any distance, and has heen doing %o ever since. It was lack of stamina, due to advancing vears, that prevented his nosing out Ted Ray at Toledo in the 1920 open, not a flaw in his game. Vardon's approach putt is an odd shot. After addressing the ball he presses the handle of his putter forward. That permits him to get the head away first on the back- swing and insures him against a wrist lock at impact, the sure way to spoil a putt. It also gives his ball an overspin and a long, true run. Incidentally, good putters have two objectives. One is to putt on the line, the other to aim for the back of the cup. Putts so played rarely fall short, and they do stick when true to line.

WALTER HAGEN TALKS IT OVER ITH the evidence all in over a period of years, it is evi- dent that the Americans have passed the British as competitive golfers. There are a number of reasons, one of which touches on a delicate subject. This concerns the treatment of the British professional by the British amateur, as compared with the rela- tionship between the American profes- sional and American amateur. For years the British professional has been regarded as a servant, and it is a rare club in Britain which per- mits the club professional to enter the clubhouse. The professional is treated as an inferior and does not have any- thing like the encouragement accorded professionals in America. British professionals are seldom seen with British amateurs, except on the golf course, whereas in America, save in rare spots, the professionals and amateurs mingle freely. The United States Golf Association still clings to the old country form of setting the prefix “M before the names of amateur players in open tournaments, while omitting it from he nam of professionals. So it is Mr. Cyril Tolley” and just_plain George Duncan, or “Mr. Bobby Jone: and just plain Walter Hagen on the scoreboard and in the programs. Stars Mark Amateurs. Great Footing, T noticed that the Massachusetts Golf Association holds to this same form, but in 95 per cent of the open championships in America, run by sectional associations, cities or indi- vidual club no such formulas are used. All the boys, amateurs as well s professionals, are set down as just John Jones” and the amateurs are rred. This seems to be a more American way of doing it. There is a marked difference be- tween the spirit of the American pro- fessionals and that of the British pro- fessionals when a British champion- ship is under way. There are always a ‘e number of Americans in Brit- tain, the amateurs, including enthusi- astic spectators, far outnumbering the professior These amateurs take the American professionals right along with them, and they join in parties on the boat and in the hotels at the championship. Stewart Maiden, pro- fessional at the Fast Lake Club, in Atlanta, Bobby Jones' first golf in- structor and his life-long friend, was in the party with Bobby and his father which made the trip to Europe this Summer. I noticed in 1926 at Lytham and St. Anne’s that the British professionals were left entirely to themselves, with the exception of George Duncan, who has many friends among American amateurs and professionals, and George spent most of his off hours with the Americans. There is no doubt American ama- teurs encourage American profession- als, especially in individual clubs, more than the professionals are en- couraged in Great Britain, and that lhls‘mnkes our boys feel good and try TROUSERS To.Match Your Odd Coats EISEMAN'S, 7th & F HAWKINS MOTOR CO.

I am inclined to think the attitude is changing somewhat in Great Brit- ain, This was indicated when British golfers raised more than $15,000 to gend the British Ryder Cup team to American this Summer. It was a fine thing for the British golfers to do, and the boys on the team certainly appre- ciated it and did their best. The team was beaten, but no worse than_the American team was defeated in Lon- don the year before. Another important factor is the mat- ter of golfing population. As a golf- ing nation America greatly outnum- bers Great Britain, and the percentage in our favor is increasing all the time. The outlook now in this country for great professional golfers coming on is much brighter than the prospects French, Horn Large pleasant $1.95 aize. Loud, tone. Tand- somely designed ond nickeied.

For the kids have turned from the sand lots to the golf courses, where they can be associated with an individual game which interests them as much, if not more, than base ball, and walk home every night with a dol- lar two dollars caddy fees in their pockets. Caddying in America i fined to boys under 16 of age, whereas in ‘Great Britain more than half the caddying is done by men. For every boy caddying in Great Brit- ain there must be 20 carrying clubs in America, At the age of 16 this host of Ameri- can boys splits into two groups—those who become professionals and the vast majority who play amateur golf. So the caddy ranks feed both our profes- sional and amateur groups. Advantage British Lack. Few PBritish amateurs ever had the early advantage obtained by caddying, such as enjoved by Chick Evans, Francis Ouimet, Jimmy Manion, Eddie Held and a host of others, including George von Elm, our pr nt amateur champion, who caddied when he was a boy on the courses in Salt Lake City. The Amerlcan supremacy in golf is well established and the future fis bright. I do not see how Great Brit- ain can regain the premier position it once held in golf, although as a sport- ing country I should say it still leads the world, if not in developing cham- pions, in the percentage of population which I8 interested and participates in some game or sporting activity. The English Derby at Epsom Downs remains as the world’s greatest sport- ing event, although a heavyweight championship bout in America, if held in a valley and with no gate fee ex- cept within the immediate vicinity of the ring, probably would bring out a crowd which would fill the hillsides and outnumber the multitude which, one way or another, goes to Lpsom for the Derby largely con- Has hand- Ttegular spi- der, 17 inches w Bpe- Ford Steering Wheel nut handla, 0 Pint Size Thermic Bottle 69c Keeps food or liquids hot or cold for over 24 hours.
