Select Councilman Davis, who Is an

Is able to make a better gcoro on any
other course In the city than at Frank

ho plays every day-that Is, when Jitneys
and Junkets do not requlro too much at
tention. "The big fellows come over here, tnke
a look around and then go out Just to
eat things up," laughed Davis, "but It's a
dllTercnt story when thoy come home. It
looks ensy, I hdmll, but that's because
Its such a nice stretch of green lawn.
There aren't nny boulders or frowning
cliffs, bdt there Is a heap of water, and
thoro ore traps aplenty. The course Is
kept In beautiful shape, so It's all up to
tho golfer and no fault of the greens If
he falls down. Seventy-eight Is par for
tho course, and, though many expert
golfors have played there, tho record 75
of Clement Webster, Jr., seems duo to
stand. I know I'll never bother to go
after It."
Golf etlquette-If an opponent gets In
tho long grass or In a bunker or other
mean hazard tho player should stand to
one sldo and offer advice. If tho op
ponent does not appear to hear, the player
should give suggestions ln a loud tone,
for no doubt tho opponent Is concentrat
ing and only Bhouts will penetrate.
First shout "Keep your eyo on the balll"
because he may never have heard ot this
maxim. If he continues to gouwc and whlft
Ineffectually, j'ell "keep your head doWnl"
or "your stanco Is wrongl" etc.
If ho begins to make answer, tolling tho
plnyer to "go plumb to somewhere" or to
keep his "something face closed," the
player Should fall back on his dignity
and stiffly ask the opponont why ho does
not get his ball out It he knows so much.
Thla will no doubt settle him down, and
h'ls renowed attacks will be sooner or
later successful.

THE OLD CRUCIAL
SERIES HAS COME
AROUND ONCE MORE
Alexander and Rudolph Will
Be Opponents in Opening
Game of Phillies and
Boston Braves.
Alexander the Great, king of pitchers,
and Dick lludolph, ono of the craftiest
and cleverest pitcher. In the National
League, are scheduled to pitch for the
Phillies nnd Braves In tho opening game
of tho all-Important series this arter
noon. That Stalling Is sending his star to
the nwiind against the Phllly marvel la
conclUB.vo proof that the "Miracle Man"
bellovca that tho BrnveB have reached
the moke or break stage In the race.
Rudolph has proven a wonder In crucial
games, as he clearly demonstrated In
his battle with Bender last October, and'
Stalling bclltves that he will force Alex
the Oreat to bow to defeat.
Rudolph wua doing the "Iron man,'1 act
until a week ago nnd has been pitching
rand bull. After his defeat In Chicago
In a close gama Stalllnga ordered him to
rest up for tho series with the Phillies.
Stalling haj contended all along that
the Phillies would crack, and he realizes
that Rudolph U his only chance against
Alexander,
If Alexander Is beaten today nudolph
will also go back on the mound against
tha Phllly star In the last game of tho
series. If the Phillies win, the Braves
v. Ill be placed In a very bad posltlpn. as
Mayer Is likely to beat any other twlrler
the Braves have. Stalllnga has thrown
percentage ball to the winds or ha would
have sent a lesser light against Alexander
and saved Rudolph to clinch a victory
against one of the other Phllly twlrler.
It was this daring chanec In the world's
series last fall that started the Maekmen
3n tha path to defeat, and Btalllngs. who
Ib a mighty superstitious Individual, be
lieve that the second chance will alio
prove lucky.
Tho return of the Brave to form In St.
I.OU1 has caused the pennant bee to start
buKlng for the Braves, aud when the
arrived here last night, practically every
member of the team exprqwed the belief
that they would put the TliUs out of the
running. Bherwood Magee, long a local
favorite, wa In rare good humor. It has
been nla lifelong dream to play In a
world' erls, and he deelares that he la
sure nothing but an aeldint will pre.

SWIMMING MEETS TO BOOST
ROWING, PLAN OF RIVERMAN
A prominent oarsman of the Schuylkill
offers a suggestion that might be a
means of stirring up interest In club life
along Boothouso Row. He believes a
series of swimming meets will bring to
gather many of the members as nothing
elao would.
Rowing does not seem to hold the at
tention It merits. Some explanation,
havo been ottered, and all with more or
less logic. The real reason seems to be
ud to the club oincIalB themselves. A
campaign for members should be started
Instead ot quietly awaiting the arrival
of new blood. At this time the old oars
men are holding UP the prestige of the
varWa clubs, but for how longT it I.
asked,
If men are not attracted 'by rowing,
try other schemes that are m;? P0?"'8.1'
Swimming will fill one of the bills, while
later on basketball will draw Its quota
of athlete. Other pastime staged might
produce results. Experiment are neees
iaiy at this time, according to the river
men.
Vesper Host Club ha solved the row
ing question. Just what the secret is
should be spread broadeast At the spring
.tryouts for tho eight three Ora as many
men turned out than eould hop to be

hnecbntl star, of whom great things were
expected, also had a similar run of bad
luck. His best cast was 307 feet 8 Inches,

NEW YORKER WINS THIRD.
Tho biggest surprise of the tourney
was tho splendid casting of Howard
ICnln, of New York, who finished third
to Simon nnd Clojton In the open event.
Knlti had mnay missed, but his sterling
throw qt 395 feet won him great applause
from tho hugo gallery that attended, es
pecially as ho had never heretofore fig
ured In theso events.
Tlio women's events were not up to
standard. Mrs. Brewer, of Asbury Park,
nnd Mrs. Knnc, of Midland Beach, both'
top-notchcrs, did not cast, and tho other
thrown were mediocre compared to last

nla Barge Club, 210 pound in avoirdupois,
I going to train hi hardest and by next
season hopesto be In condition to give
the best of them a rub. Krlps has been
In fair trim, but will train consclentloualy,
so that he will be aatltncd with his single
meeting- with Jack Kelly, of the Vespers.
Kelly I the kingpin among the single
scullers on the river, and It Is for this
crown that Krlps has set his head,
The question which Is on the lips ot
nearly every Philadelphia rowing enthu
siast Is, "Will Jack Kelly, of the Vesper,
beat Bob Dibble, ot Toronto, In the sin
gles tomorrow at SprlngtleldT"
On form the Canadian should win. In
Dibble Kelly Is meeting an oarsman who
can give and take all thero I In the
game. Dibble Is just as powerful alt
around as Kelly. In one day Dibble won
three races. Kelly also has done notable
work on oeeailon. In this respect the
men are qquai.
It Is believed, however, that Dibble Is
the more finished oarsman, He Is a great
Judge of pace and has greater experience
than the Philadelphia man. With all
these qualification It I dlftUult to see
how the all-Amerlea champion can be
defeated. Rigger surprises have been
sprung, however.
Crescent Boat Club members have not
decided on their entry In the Middle
State. Captain C- W. Bny stat.s that
