boll, There Is nothing In tho statement
that ho Is waiting on mo. 1 haven't
heard from lilm and have not written
to him. Tho matter Is closed, so far ns
I know.
"Baker can quit or enn do an thins
ho pleases; hut I nil! not pny him ono

If. this nttltudo Is maintained by both

AMATEUR GOLFER IS DEFINED
U. S. Golf Association Definitely
Rules Money Must Not Be Accepted.
According tc tho latest ruling of the United
Elates Golf Association, n golfer will forfeit
his status as an amateur If he accepts, di
rectly or Indirectly, any fee, gratuity, money
or Its equivalent as a consideration for any
act of service. Editors, authors or golfing ar
ticles, construction snd supervising experts uu
courses and the upkeep of a golf course are
exceptions.
Young men have no time to play golf. This
la tho assertion of II. Warren Corkran, who
rajks at tha head of the Baltimore golfers
"The average young man has to work for a
living and la not hla own boss. It Is Impos
sible for him to get away at 2 or .1 o'clock,
rush away to n club and get In a round before
nark" Corkran. however, told the commis
sioners who were holding a hearing on the
uuestlon of providing public links for Balti
more, that If such a project were carried out
tba course would not lack for users. He said
them were enough golfers almost anywhere to
nuke public links popular. Hundreds of those
who like golf cannot afford membership In u
private club, he said.

Shystque of Johnson and a dupllcats motion

Pitcher Hill I.athrop will bo left on the coast
for further development when the White So

not been definitely settled,
Charley KbbetH lias this to say rcgnrdlni
his new Inrlelder for the Dadgeis: "The In
Held has been made the proverbial stone wall
by the acquisition of Joe Hctiulti. who Is a
strong fielder, a graceful thrower and a sturdy
battor. He has a great future before lilm.
O'ilara will come through, which means a
hustling quartet that will shape up with any
of your 1100,000 Infields. To me it looks like
a fl.OOO.uuO array, for the Infield of a ball
team represents pretty much of a club's
alue."
Arthur V. Korea Is the find of the ear In tha
Infield line, according to John J. McOraw. The
rookie lias shown wonderful form at the .Mar

and Klrmayer, ure In a race to gain a posi
tion on the twirling staff. It Is certain that
all three will have a try-out at the I'olo
Grounds.
Roger Ilrcsnahan. manager of the Cubs, has
assigned to himself a Job as utility man. He
admitted this when questioned about his recent

Electrio trains make tho trio from either city
In less than 45 minutes, while tho steam
tialns are even faster. Tho truck was In
augurated laBt icar. but 11 was only half way
compli ted. Still tho racing thero became to
popular that the promoters decided to spara
110 oupcnse In making tho plant up to date
In every particular. The Jockey Club has
Jurisdiction over Howie, which means clean
sport and a fair break for the patrons of
racing.
Joseph A Murnhy. who managed a success

CHANGES IN COLUMBIA NINE
Coakloy Puts Weinstein at Short and
Friedrich on Third.
Andy Cnakley, baseball coach at Columblt,
made a rhango In the lineup of the varsity
nine by shifting Friedrich and Weinstein, The
former had played at short for the last two
years, and Weinstein waa selected last week
to play third base.
Coakley believes Weinstein will be able to
cover more ground between second and third,
and that Krledrtch Is better adapted to rial
1ns third base than vhortstop.
Because pf two late afternoon lectures,
Charley Hann, the big first basMnarc will be
unable to play at alt on Tuesdays and Thurs
days, and Coakley has decided to put O'Neale
on the initial bag In practice and In any games
which Columbia may have for those days, Hy
trin scheme O'Neale will pitch one day a week
an J play first base two days.
Pinochle Title Decided
