KVANS, Jr. It was raining Ihe other day when I uas going nut for tuy afternoon hour on Ihe link. As 1 started for the first tee I aw a number of friends of j mine quitting fnr the day. and a lot of ' good-natured banter flowed hack and ' forth between us about ducks and rub 1 her hoots and cabbage find king My friend thought me foolth to play tinder 1 the conditions. But praetlce In the rain seems a er essential thliiK to me. since no player can pick the weather condi tions under nhlch tournaments may hae ' to he played. And there Is a lot nf difference between wet and dry weather playing. In wet weather the atmosphetic conditions affect the (light of the hall ' arid our control of it One not used to a wet club-head can make a remarkably had shot, and without practice on wet ground one's stance may be a very un- certain thing. Doesn't Mind Haiti , I do not particularly mind playing golf In the r.iln. If 1 did I should bale a hard time In the Ited Cross tourna ments, for so far eery'one of them has been played beneath weeping skies. So I went out and practiced any way. feel- Ing that 1 was accomplishing something, , even though It be nothing more than keeping my schedule up. Here I am, scarcely practicing an hour a day. and yet I would be satisfied if I were always sure of that 1 like a truly systematic schedule. Tile golfer who only goes out to prac- tee once In a while tries to do it all In one day. and 11 can't be done. All worth- 'while ptogress Is steady and consistent I and the speed of improvement dependR In large measure upon the intelligence used In practice and natural ability I think that one should determine lo 1 lilt each day a certain number of cleek shots, mldlron whots, light Irons, mnshies and slopums, all at a 'makeshift flag Then there should he some practice get ting out of the roughest grass and hunk ers. Then one should practice run-up shotn and putts, long and short There Is moie fun playing than practicing, of course: but such a plan of practice takes hut little time Something Learned My few shots on this particular rainy morning did not teach me many I things, lut I learntd one of much iu1 1 porlance. and that was that when the 1 face of an Iron club, especially one that has not been scored, gets wet the ball slips and the tesult Is a lery uneven flight. Moral On a rainy dny dry your clubface hefoie playing. Anothei thing that 1 learned was to keep on trying, exen under discouraging circumstances. I thought nf hitting as If clipping the ball up al the last minute and the ball went line. A well-carried follow through helped considerably. On the mushle and stopuin shots I brought my hands nearer and let them act as the center of a circle and the result was excellent. Try these plans when you play next. Meusrl. I'hlla.

Miiri-lon Is Ready Marston. who until lecentiy was in the naval leserve.s. hut who was In valided home. Is very enthuslantlc about these Bed Cross matches and has offered his sci vices to hoth the fiolf Association of Philadelphia and the Women's Coif Association of Philadelphia. He has been playing on an average of two matches a week for the Bed Cross In the metropolitan district, and now that ho is a resident here he is anxious to play in exhibition matches over the Phil adelphia courses Not only In be one of the five or six best amateurs In the country, hut there is no golfer who Is more popular with ihe hig players of the country Jerry Travers, Oswald Klrkhy, the formet ineirnpolitan and New Jersey champion, and other hig men of the metropolitan district have told him they will be de lighted lo run over to Philadelphia nnd play In exhibition matches. A number of the best professionals In Ihe New York district have also proffered their services, rio far as he is concerned he is more anxious to play matches hete than In New York. He believes that matches can be arranged to he played over Mer ion, the Philadelphia Country and Cricket Clubs. Huntingdon Valley and the Whltemarsh Valley Country Club courses, with some of the best amateur and professional players In the country as participants. Kvanti Will Come Thete is no doubt that Chick Evans will be glad to play here some time this j ear. Mrs. w. A. Oavln. the metropoli tan champion, who Is now busy playing professional and amateur golfers, has told him that she will gladly come here to play Marston or any other prominent amateur or to play In a four-ball match with either Mrs. Ronald H. Barlow, Mist Mildred Caverly, Mrs. Clarence H. Van derbeck or Mrs. Caleb F. Fox and Mar ston and Travers. The executive committee nf the fiolf Association of Philadelphia will hold a meeting some time next week to discuss the matter of exhibition matches. At that time It is expected that some sort of a schedule of events will be ar ranged. There ought to he no trouble In fixing up a series of matches as plenty of men and women are available. The only possible handicap is that other cities and sections have got the jump on Philadelphia. Only Section Not Duty The Western Golf Association has al ready announced a big list ot events and these matches have been played over a number of courses. There haye been one or two matches every week In the Metro politan district, but up to date not a single mach has been played or sched uled for this city. Naturally, every one Is waiting to see what the local golf association will do and It Is to be hoped that action of some sort will be taken promptly before s-'l the big players are listed to play elsewhere. The Golf Association la concentrating Its efforts on the war and thrift savings drive through the various clubs and on the War-Chest drive for Memorial Day. and It does not -want to do anything In the line of exhibition matches until after Memorial Day. It might be Bald that many of the local clubs have been sell ing war ana tnriit stamps tor some time. Whltemarsh. for Instance, has. been sell ing these at the rate of 11000 a weeK for two months or more. The members of other clubs (or some time have been settling their bets with thrift stamps. These exhibition matches can be ar ranged without the slightest Interference with any action already taken by the Oolf Association of Philadelphia, As ttny.ww UandJ! In th two. blgmatehst KVANS at the Huntingdon Valley Counliy Club last ear. the collections wslc made by the women representing the Red Cross and Ihe soldiers' tobacco fund The rest nf the work is publicity, and there will be no tiouble alopR those lines. Should lie Quickly Arranged But if IMliladelphlans ale to see any of the big amateuis and professionals and If the War Chest Is to he benefited speedy action Is necessary. As has been pointed out befol'e, these exhibition matches will bring In more money than can be raised in any other way. Some of them have alteady netted ns high as :5.n00 for a single match. Then it should be temembered that many people go out of town early In June, nnd golflm conditions are never better than they ar Just at present. The West nnd the metropolitan dis tricts ate Just as busy with these stamp and charity drives as Philadelphia, and at the same time they are having these big exhibition matches which ate draw ing large galleries and are filling Wat Chests. Marston, Travels, Klrkhy, Mrs. riavlr, and the rest are ready to do their share Now the whole thing Is up to the (Jolf Association of Philadelphia. Old York.

Pal Mornn maintains hy all the kings that ever kinked In Iteland that Tom (Jrlfllth should never have had a chance to make that dash for third base; that he was out a hop and halt nt second Bancroft says he cot him b.v two feet. The dURt kicked up so thick that nobody could Judge the play from the press box. and the right or wrong of the decision must, therefore, remain n mystery, save to those who were Involved. Speaking of his wild pilch, "Mule" j Philadelphia wanted to know If the famous wild : st' 'oul" ' chuck wiih which Cheshro threw away a pennant long ago went any higher than this one. "If Chesbro could peg any taller ones than that." said "Mule," "he must have been a darling." . 2S IIH in .in js nn .32 in 2 1 7.1 2ii sn jn ni 2n inn . n in 2n ni vi m .32 lis 23 7S 2 17 jn 21 27 in I 23 2H :i 1 12 13 23 1 in 13 2.1 IS I Cluhs New York I Cincinnati Chicago .

I,ee Magee's steal In the first put him where he would score' on Chase's short hit. Williams's pilfer In Ihe sev enth created two errors which took him home. And (irldlth's two grabs In the eleventh upset the ball game. All last season T. Orllllth stole five bases, and here he gets two In a single game and already has nipped five, though the sea son Is In Its morning. Intentional passes were tried by both commanders The Tleds took a long chance when they passed Cravath In the sixth and filled the bases with only one nut. hut the Idea went through, for Meusel hit Into a nifty infield double play. Wlngo was passed In the ninth, filling up the bases, but two were out and Toney at bat. so the risk wasn't ns heavy. t'y Williams drove quite a close bar gain with Pat Moran. Whltted's depar ture for war left the Quakers decidedly shy on outfield talent, and the long col legian didn't overlook any business chances. He will roost on the bench till somebody falls away In batting, and will then gallop around the outfield with Ills awkward but effective methods. Steatly in Pinches In every one of the last six Innings the visitors made a hit off Toney, but the "ftlfleman of Tennessee" proved In vulerable when the danger began to threaten. He seems to have all he ever r owned In speed and shoots, and also has developed a drop ball with a tendency to dip outside the plate, which Is hard for the batters to understand. Stops by Bancroft and McGafflgan featured the pastime, both of them rak ing some almost Impossible bounders. Mcfiafilgan also contributed two fooz ers, but they did no harm. Moran and Mathewson, two of the most placid men In the game, were wild with warlike wrath Matty early In the battle and Pat right afterward Matty, claiming that Blackburn was safe at the plate In the second frame, stormed more fiercely than was ever seen before, while Pat maintaining that he was knocked out by the close de cision In the eleventh, 'vya as growly as a grizzly at the finish. - Roush and Meusel were extremely busy In center field, Ed got seven riles and Meusel five .each man making sundry pretty and almost startling catches.
