Better Golf Than Bala
Maxwell was delighted with the condition
ef the course, and before he started out on
hl nrund he said that It represented better
tolf than Bala, which Is generally believed
to he the hardest nine-course around Phlla
jelphla. Lansdowne has always been fa
mous for Its beautiful turf on the fairways,
nJ while some of the greens are heavy
with fall and cVab grass, the putting Is
true, with none of tho sllpperlness that
Characterizes the Bala course. Ho believes
the par of the course should be lowered
ufl .this has been arranged for so that
It can be cut to seventy-two or seventy
Without spoiling the golf. The best amateur
record made since changes In the course
were completed last year was a seventy-Me-made
by Felton. Jack Edmundson,
the professional, held the professional rec
ent of-seventy-one strokes.
It'was not so long ago that the Junior
Btmbers of a golf club had to play among
themselves If they wished a match. The

youngsters, did everything possible to take
the Interest of their game. Fortunately,
we arc getting wiser, and the older mem
oers havo begun to realize that the best
piajers In the city nre the bora of sixteen
ana upward. The Woodbury te?m Is made
up almost exclusively of boys Irom four
teen to twenty-two or twenty-three.
A number of years ago Wllmor Dewees,
mo iweniy-ycar-old sensational golfer,
who upset the calculations of every one by
winning the Bala tournament, was a Junior
Player at Stcnton. There was a tourna
ment, and when tho boy handed In a score
of seventy-five ho was told that Juniors
wcro not eligible to play This, and the
fact that few If any of the Stenton players
did anything to encourage him, caused him
to leave Stcnton and go to North Hills,
whero there are a 16t of youngsters play
ing, notably Styles, Piatt and the Median
boys.
Bumm Cup Detail Arranged
It has been virtually decided that the
Bello Stcclman Bumm Cup, given by Mrs
Jacob H. S. Dlsston. will be competed for at
Whitcmarsh tho early part of next month.
It will be a thirty-six hole medal play com
petition and tho cup will go to tho woman
player who wins It three times In succes
sion. This virtually makes It a perpetual
cup, for while Mrs. Barlow or Miss Caverly
or some other expert In medal play may
get one or two consecutive legs on It, It will
be a hard tnsk for any woman to win It
three times running. The affair wilt be
condue'ed under tho auspices of the Wom
en's Oolt Association of Philadelphia, and
In addition to tho main prize, thero will bo
other prizes given by Mrs, DIsstor.. Then
again nn effort will be made to get the
women golfers from other sections of the
country to compete, so that the first field
.i ry representative one.

Oak Lane will In all nrnh.nllH flnlah V
Its schedule In the Philadelphia Suburb tjX
uaseDan league, according to Edward Uii
Hackney, the hustltna- leader nf that nr?.Sk
gnnlzatlon. 5
1M suburbanites only held possession ofV.
their home playing- field conditionally, and '7V
whlls President Hackney was In the- West -on
his vacation tho Oak Lane manage
ment received notlco to vacate In ordsr to
make ready for a larga building operation
which Is now under way. It was reported
enlistments caused the nine to disband
and the scheduled contests would b
awarded the other clubs.
Dislikes the Idea
When Hackney arrived home today th
situation was explained to him, although
ho was aware of the conditions under which .
.... . ne. WM 0CCUPy'n Us home grounds. '
It IS all news tn m. . aaM "ft I..m
that Oak Lane will not completo Its sched
ule. It Is a procedure that I might say t ,
personally dislike and am positive better ar
rangements can be made. I feel as though
I can provide for the team to finish the
games. Oak Lane Is scheduled to play at
home with Llndley on Saturday, and I am
already making arrangements with th
Llndley management to stage the contest
on their grounds.
"In my many years' connection with minor
leaguo baseball all teams havo complete
their schedules, and I am certain I will
havo matters so arranged that the Phila
delphia Suburban League will play every
game on Its schedule."
President Hackney paid a high tribute to
the fine showing made by the Fern Hock
team during the season.
This Game Will Decide
Fern Ilock ha almost captured the cham
pionship of the Philadelphia Suburban
League, nnd only one obstacle block the
path a game to be played on the home
field this Saturday with the Olney runners
up. Tho league leaders say they do not
fear the outcome, and Fern Ilock fans have
already planned a big celebration at the
conclusion of tho match.
Tho club has established nn envlnhU r.r-
ord during the playing season, having lo.t
but one game, and that to Olney, Fern
ltock haH defeated Olney three times. Tu
record for the season follows:

From player to "fan" Fatimas are the
champion. At the ball parks in 9 out of the
11 Big League cities, Fatima's sales are
considerably ahead of any other high-grade
cigarette.
These men like Fatima's fine flavor. They
like the comfort to throat and tongue. But
most of all they are glad it is not necessary to
'keep score" on the number of Fatimas they
smoke.
Fatimas are so sensible that you, too, will
stick to them.
