McCarthy notified Ray F. Garrity, chairman of the Manor Club golf com- mittee, several days ago that he could not play in the match because the Georgetown golf team, of which he is captain, will be out of the city. Roland MacKenzie notified Garrity yesterday that business matters will keep him in New York over next week end. g ‘The match will start at 2 o’clock, and at that time the new nine holes laid ‘TODAY.

Evans is believed to have established an intercollegiate record, when he scored 10 goals in one game. Virginia was the victim. On two occasions this season, Bill has counted 7 times, against Hobart and Randolph-Macon. Speed is almost vital in the making of a star lacrosse player, but Evans 1s not particularly fast.

Decision of the United States Golf Association to put a larger and lighter ball into play came as a distinct sur- prise today to many of the profession- als about the Capital who have followed the experiments of the implements and ball committee with great interest. Sev- eral months ago the pros predicted that it would be many years before a new standard ball was put into play, if a change ever was made. But here is the real news of the mat- ter. According to Sandy Armour, the Congressional professional, the larger and lighter ball will not bring about the Barnes Says Pivot Is Just Hip Turn THE. LEFT KNER MUST GIVES ELSE ONE CAN- NOT PIVOT— " BENDS IN TOWARD THE- RIGHT KNEE AND FORWARD TOWARD THE. BALL =My . | fiig— BY SOL METZGER. ‘The pivot, according to “Long Jim” Barnes, is a hip turn, a natural one at that. Merely by keeping the head in place and by taking the club back you feel the pull on your left side. This pull acts on the left leg .as that hip starts coming around. It causes the left leg to bend inward at the knee toward the right and forward toward the ball. Many golf teachers lay stress upon this bending of the left knee as to direction. They claim it must bend in toward the right knee or a slice will result. Not Barnes. Jim bends it in and forward in a natural manner and is not given to slicing by a couple of birdies. Nor could Bobby Joes be called a slicer, though he bends his left knee forward more than some claim is permissible. The point about this leg and knee is ‘that it be used to balance the ‘weight at the top of the swing.

PALDING Golf Shoes are real athletic shoes —brothers of Spalding baseball, football and proposed millennium by cutting down the driving length of the golf ball. One manufacturer, seeing the trend of golf ball legislation, has been experimenting for several years with larger and lighter | golf balls and has succeeded in making a larger and lighter ball which can be driven farther than the present small “jack rabbit” ball. | The U. S. G. A. hopes that with the ! new ball, which is to be 1.68 inches in | diameter and 1.55 ounces in weight, dis- | tance of the long hitters from the tee | will be very materially reduced. But. | according to Armour, this will not be the case if the manufacturer in question puts his new ball on the market. The change will affect the average high handicap player by cutting down his distance from the tee, both Armour and Fred McLeod, the Columbia men- tor, claim. But McLeod goes a step fur- ther and declares that the long hitter— the first-class amateur golfer—will find it far more difficult to score with the larger and lighter ball, for a shot hit | with a slight slice or hook will be ex- aggerated in the matter of loss of line, while the new ball will not duck into the hole on the putting green with the | same ease of the jack rabbit sphere. | " But both Armour and McLeod, who are golfers of the old school, foresee a vast improvement in the game with the | advent of the new ball. Their comments | on the new ball were almost identical. “This new ball will bring back into the game the control of shots that made Vardon_and Taylor the masters they were. It will bring back the half-shot and the three-quarter shot and make of golf a thing of control of clubs in- stead of a mere_matter of a full shot with all clubs. Instead of a full space mashie a player with the new ball will have to learn a half shot with the mashie and instead of a full spoon shot he ,will learn a half iron shot. The control will be the thing with the new | ball, and there will no longer be the built to cover the distance.” Page Hufty shot the best golf yester- day in the Town and Country Club |tourney of any of the semi-finalists, holding a 30-foot putt on the ninth green to score a 33 for the first nine in his match in the afternoon against J. A. Cox, whom he defeated 7 and 6. The second round was marked by the surprise defeat of S. H. Buttz of Indian Spring by J. J. Lynch, who played golf superior to that shown by the Indian Spring title-holder to close him out on the fifteenth green, 4 and 3. Miller B. Stevinson of Columbia, holder of the District amateur title, was the lone player from Washington to qualify in the first flight in the Balti- more Country Club tourney and is play- ing in the first round today against ‘Tol T.

Saum of Columbia regis- tered an 89 and qualified in the third flight, where he met Dan S. Neill, a Baltimore veteran. W. N. Baldwin of Manor is in the fifth flight with a card of 97, while R. B.
