below normal, regardlcsi of tho reports

thusiasm what tney tacKeri in num-era worn
Hj era's hopefuls staged a rally that swept
them ahead of tho Heading Hears after
trailing In tho rear.
rreeason prediction! that tho quality of
basketball would suffer hecauso of tho
"amateur" players In tho llnc-up have not
been borne out. On tho contrary, tho loss
of two professionals Is expected In time to
result In Improved team play Already Is
discernible nn absence of the "let-George-

work Youngsters breaking In have taken
an Interest In their game, as they now be
llce there Is a real opportunity to become
stars themsolios.
Regarding the attendance, Reading pla ed
to a small opening night crowd, and whllo
Moose Hall was well filled In Trenton. It
was nothing compared to the throngs that
stormed tho armory. Tho meager turn
out at Musical Fund H.ill must havo been
discouraging to tho promoters, hut they
figure It will jump materially If tho club
goes on winning with any degree of con-
" slstcncy.

fear Is felt ns to how Jasper and Cam

most loj.il follow Ings fn the Uastern cir

much smaller this ear, and according to
local Mars who hae plajcd In the .State
League, no manager has been overburdened
with the Hiiancl.il receipts up thero so far.

BYB
Tlin short game I understand any
shot from 125 jards to tho putt, but
not Including It. I tay 123 jards because
I consider anything bejond that a long shot;
but, of courhe, In this connection, 1 am
thinking only of
experts It would
be .1 little dllferent
for tlio poor play
ers Tho short golf
shots nio tho leally
It licit, parts of
tho gamo They nio
plivid vvltlf various
tlubi; for Instance,
with run-up Irons,
pitcher, jigger,
nuishlc-nlbllclt. eti-.
and with theso
clubs It Is a light
ened stroke. It Is
ail right when up
piling full strength,
but when It comes
to a question of
making the club-
lie.iil I'll hImu. :m,l
charm:s r.VANS nn am,nc.,tion of
less strength, then comes In a pionounced
degreo of dlffercnco between players.
Usually the short gamo infers tint you
do not go much In the air; that is, you
pitch nnd run, and that Implies judging the
roll of the ball I include niblick shots In
bunkers, and off grounds near high mound
ed nnd terraced edges of greens, among the
bhort shots
I do not believe In sparing a single shot,
nnd, therefore, X think that tho length of
tho back stroke should determine tho dis
tance. In this connection, I think I should
say that I was astonished at tho gamo of
lax JIarston, I observed that ho takes
his club almobt to a full suing for a five or
25 yard shot. He Is a glaring example of
the. lone- back stroke for short shots, und to
my way of thinking he Is dead wrong Yet
he beat Jerry Travers at bis best and came
within an ace of winning tho national cham
pionship ofjlfHS- at Detroit. The only way
I can -explfiln It Is that there are a good
inany methods carefully cultivated by line
athlete's that achieve good results at times.
Short Putts Help . '
The plaierwho Is putflng In a reasonable
distance ifter the short gamo shot Is
played is the one who Is cutting off strokes.
A golfer can mlsslhls second shot and still
bo In tho running If he can play the delicate
Abort shot. To play it, one has to know
vhother to keep his weight stationary or'to
sway the body slightly; 11 uepenus upon
.the length of tho shot, nnd i- assure you
there is 11 fine line to be drawn just, nere.
Chandler Fgan was especially expert at
this shot. I remember In tho National of
1903 nt the Chicago Golf Club ho was play
ing N'ed Sawyer In tho third round, and'
they wero all square and ono to go. Ills
tecond shot was In the rough nUout twenty
yards; to the right. Sawyer was splendidly
on irl two. l.'gan's short bhot with his
jigger flnlbhed four feet from tlio cup, atyl
he won on the thirty-eighth hole, Usually,
however, you have to be In good putting
form to mak0 th,s Bhot receive Its 'full
share of desert.
It Is very hard to deliver a light rilow
on to the ball and still hit It crisply, 'and
all, shots should bo crisply hit. You are
working Into tho Imaginary line, and this,
tooi makes you hit the ball with stiff wrists.
Thi hit must be absolutely trtie, and this
makes the shot extra-difficult. Sometimes
there are bad lies, and It Is Impossible to
play the shot light enough for the Uls
taice and strong enough to net out of the
e?n ,tW sliirt game accuracy of shot
and excellence of judgment count with pecu
liar force. There are" times wlien lt use
.iiiv the. niblick demands treat, nerve, for
yott-iauft wing hard enough .to etthe

rjnillS anniversary offering of overcoats will show you
JL thai the William II. Wanamahcr Store has not
deviated by so much as a hair's breadth from its, all-.
wool policy, which was inaugurated with the foundation
of the business in 1S90.
II will also show' with added force the truth of the
oft-repeated assertion that we consistently give our
friends the utmost of real worth in fashionable all-wool
clothing for every dollar they spend.
Most of these overcoats are the new belted
ulsters now so much in demand, and we anticipate
little less than a furore among men and young men
who will pick these coats up at the exceptionally low
figure of 20.
You cannot match them at the price!
