Almost nil tho best women golfers of tho

ing tho other day for the dinners. Tho
match was all sciunre to tho eighteenth and
mi that nolo one of tho fellows ori the other
side had a long putt to win tho hole. Ills
partner was holding tho pin, nnd when the
ball camo much too hard the partner pro
tended not to sco It and stood there, lotting
it hit him. Wo made a holler, but thoy
putted out and claimed a half. They
claimed tho ball hit tho man at tho pin ac
cidentally. When wo refused to play any
moro holes they claimed tho match. Wo nil
thought wo know tho rule and tho result
was that wo haven't eaten yet. Can you set
us straight? S. L. 1'.
Morton, I'a.
If a player's ball is stopped by himself or
his partner, or either of their caddies or
their clubs, his sldo loses the hole. Tho
accidental part of it doesn't mako any dif

Sandy McNIblick What is all this talk
about stance, grip and other Fcientlfic moves
In the act of putting? Tho way I putt best
is to go up whistling and without a thought,

"A baseball scout wandering about tho
country In search nf baseball talent humps
into fomo funny experiences," mused IMdlo
Ilerr, chief Ivory hunter of tho St. Louis
Cardinals. "I havo had moro funny things
happen to mo and have seen' moro funny
things since scouting than I did In all my
yenrs of playing.
"Tho funniest stuft I ever saw was whllo
I was making a trip through Canada last
year. The owner of the club was n. parsi
monious chap, and ho did not believe In
separating hhnsolf from any more money
than was necessary. Tho club was on tho
road and losing, and tho manager sent
three telegrams to tho owner Imploring him
to get somo new players. Tho owner, upon
receiving tho third telegram, went straight
up In tho nlr.
'"Can you beat It?' ho said to me. 'Hero
he sends mo throe telegrams; ono costs 10
cents, one 71 cents and ono 05 cents, when
he ,can send a speolal delivery letter for 12
cents,'
This same club owner had a pitcher who
looked pretty good to ran He was a right
hander with plenty of speed, nnd the club
owner pitched him pretty near every day 1
was in town. I was stuck on his work,
too, but tho owner was so darn anxious
to hell him I got suspicious. I noticed that
he wore a glove on his left hand which ho
did not take off even when ho went to bat,
nnd lucky -for me the glove happened to
slip off one day, because I discovered that
he had hut one arm. Believe me. he was
the slickest one-armed pitcher I ever saw.
"Hut before I left this club owner pulled
one that was the richest I ever saw in my
years of baseball experience. After the,
team lost three games In a row after being
tn the lead each time, ho' got a big Blgn
painted and stuck It over the bench In tlio
lead of night. When the team arrived the
next afternoon to play the sign stared them
in the face, reading, 'Boys, whatever you
do. don't weaken.'
That afternoon the teain had a com.
manding lead and the opposing team started
a rally, .whereupon the, club owner Jumped
out of the stand, and pointing to the sign,
roared, 'Itonember, boys, whatever you do
don't weaken.'
"Ves. a scout sees some funny things.'

Cup golf tournoy nt Huntingdon Valley
today, when Cameron H lluxton, Hunting

Dux ton won his right tn the final bout
for tho cup by toppling nvor John CI.
Anderson, twlco n finalist for tho national
championship, and several times district
champion lu tho region of New York.
Uu.Uoti brought tho largo fan-shaped
gallery to Its toos Irf a rattlo of cheering
'.vhcti ho picked a shot out of tho rough
from 17th too and landed tho green with
n neat kick, virtually dead to the holo.
Anderson shook hands whon he could not
rool nroiiml tho putt, lluxton laid to tho
flag. Tho result was two and ono.
Marsoti won from Hugh Wllloughby,
Philadelphia and Florida champion, by n
margin of 2 and 1, Tho local expert led
tho New. Jersey planet for a short period
which lasted through tho play on tho first
hole.
After that he was always on tho In
vader's heels, but could never tiulto burst
through. Ho spoiled any ohanco he had
when ho put hla approach to tho 17th In
tho rough. Ho halved tho holo in I, but
lost tho match.
Tho most Interesting match of tho two In
tho semifinal from tho standpoint of tho
gallery was that between lluxton, playing
on his homo course, nnd Anderson, lluxton
won tho llrst two holes In par figures and
to tho sixth where ho missed an easy two
foot putt.

DODGERS ARE OUT OP RUNNING
FOR NATIONAL LEAGUE FLAG,
IS BELIEF OF PHILLY PLAYERS
I II I H.M.-...P.. H I I I I I f
Double Victory of Champions Over Brooklyn In
dicates Tliat Robins Lack Proper
Fighting Spirit
Dy CHANDLER D, RICHTER
nnOOKIA'N, Juno 21.
THE Dodgers nro through. At least, that
Is tho opinion ot tho I'hllty players.
They contend thnt tloblnnon'8 team proved
conclusively thnt It was not gamo, and
nuroly looked that yay nftor tho Blxth In
ning of tho first gamo of yesterday's double
header. When Brooklyn tied tho score with
a four-run rally, In which tho brooks of tho
gamo aided them greatly, llohlnson's men
showed nn unusual amount of ginger and
proceeded to "rldo" tho Phllly players, In
hopes of putting tho champions up In tho
nlr.
Kvery series between tho Phillies nnd
Urooklyn had been moro or less hand
(limiting affairs, with neither team display
ing tho usual amount of spirit until tho
liodgers suddenly stnrtcd to "rldo" Mornn's
men. Tho "riding" seemed to awaken tho
Phllly lighting spirit, just ns It did In tho
tuemorablo series with tho Braves Inst Sep
tember, and from that moment on it was
a dirforent team.
Instead of quitting as the Dodgers hoped
after such a disastrous Inning, tho Phils
began to piny ns they did lu 10 1C. They
tool: tho riding good nnluredly. but went
strong. Tho fighting was nroused and they
soon had tho Dodgers on tho run.
No Necessity for Squeeze
For tho first tlmo this season tho Phillies
displayed a whirlwind offense nnd It was
not necessary to resort to tho squeeze play
at nil, though there woro numerous oppor
tunities, Kvory man who reached llrst haso
was In action, with tho hatter working with
him. Tho hit and run play wan pulled oft
so successfully that tho Broklyn Infield wns
nt sea.
If Cutshaw covered second, the ball shot
through between him and Dauuert, whllo If
O'Mara was going over to tako tho throw
tho batter would hit past tho spot ho had
Just vacated. The runner who had been on
first always reached third whllo tho batter
would kcci right on going to second on the
throw.
If tho Phillies hnd not secured such a
largo lead nnd the game had not been so
slow, It Is likely that many moro runs could
havo been tallied In tho second, several bat
ters permitting themselves to bo called out
on strikes In order to get tho gamo over.
Tho Urooklyn players realized that they
wcro outclassed and nlso desired to get the
gamo over as quickly as possible. We havo
never seen two ball teams change so much
In a short spneo of time, nnd the helpless
ness of the Dodgers was apparent to the
largo crowd. Tho fans Bhowed plainly In
tho closing innings that they had lost hope
Just as did the Dodgers.
Chalmers to Pitch
Manager Moran will depend upon cither
Goorgo Chalmers or Chief Header to make
It four In a row from the Dodgers this aft
ernoon. Indications nro that Chalmers will
get tho assignment, with Render In reservo
for relief duty. Chalmers has at last gained
control and Moran believes that ho will bo
Just as effective aB he was n year ago.
Throughout tho spring Chalmers has had
n world ot stuff, but hla control has been
so poor that Moran has trusted him with
only a fow starts and ho has not been ablo
to finish many of his games. When tho
big spltballer got them over tho plato ho
was unhlttablo, but his passes and tho fact
that ho always was In tho holo prevented
him from winning.
Chalmers Is not credited with a victory
this season, but is confident that ho will
start on a winning streak at the expense
of the Dodgers today. It Goorgo can get
away to a good start ho Is likely to havo
llttlo trouble with tho Dodgers In tholr
present demoralized condition.
A victory today will carry tho Phils
hack Into first place and also take away
still moro of tho fast-cbblng confidence of
tho Dodgers.
Smith May Oppose
It is likely that Sherrod Smith, Robin
son's star southpaw, will be sent against
tho Phils. Smith was slated to work yes
terday, but he has been laid up with a
heavy cold and Manager Robinson decided
to givo him another day of rest. Tlte frtct
that Hube Marquard and Malls got away
hotter than tho right-handed pitchers leads
Itoblnson to bcllovo that a southpaw moy
ho nblo to stop tho slugging of Mornn's
men, but wo think he will think differently
after tho game.
For the second straight day tha poor
police arrangements at libbets Field ro
suited In a disgraceful rceno. Immediately
after tho Bocond gamo yesterday tho crowd
Bwarmod upon the field nnd tried to mob
Umplro Dill llyron. The players of tho
Brooklyn nnd tho Phllly teams went to tho
umplro's aid. Ho also proved himself a
pretty tough customer. Whllo tho players
wero battling- with tho angry fans, the six
officers looked on nnd mado no attempt to
stop tno disturbance.
Tho odd part about tho wholo affair was
that tho fans were not peeved nt tho umpir
ing, but because Byron foolishly tried to
onforco tho rule, preventing tho Epoctatora
from having any part of tholr bodies ex
tended over tho rail Into tho playing field.
With two men out In tho ninth Inning nnd
tho Phillies holding a commanding lead a
few fans started to climb tho rnll In order
to make a hasty exit.
Xo one In tho park noticed It but Byron,
and as they Were standing In foul ground
It mattered llttlo, hut tho omclous llttlo
umpire Insisted that he would forfeit tho
gamo unless they returned to their scnts.
Finally he walked nil tho way down to the
oxtrcmo end of tho field nnd ordered tho
olllccrs to put tho crowd back. Tho officers
failed to comply with his order and Byron
drow his watch, declaring that ho would
forfeit the gamo it tho Brooklyn club did
not seo that tho field was cleared within
three minutes.
It was tho second tlmo ;n succession thnt
this threat was mado by Byron becauso the
Brooklyn club did not havo enough offlcora
on hand to control tho crowd. Finally
Byron compromised nnd ground rules wcro
made covering balls Into the crowd. Fortu- .
nately McCarty struck out, ending the
game.
