By CHARLES (CHICK) EVANS. JR.
I'AS raining: hard In town, and an
looked out of the window and
watched the downpour of the cray clouds
that spread far to-the westward t con
cluded to take a later train to the club.
When 1 arrived there an hour later I
discovered that no rain at nil had fallen
there, the worst liavlnn been a gray and
threatening sky. I was mtRry at myself,
of course, but I hurried Into my clothes
delnrmlncd to pet at least a half-hour of
golf
It was a wipe resolution, fur In that
Fhort rlemlhour I picked up a small Idea
that ought to be of value to mfe and It la
In effect only a little variation of our old
friend the "forward pre" Without a
doubt, by this time my renders aifoclate
me vijth that Idea, and I am not r.orry,
for in spite of wlpU critics may, nay 1
am a i-troiis believer in the "forward
press,"
At Winnipeg I was not getting my
c'.Ubhead through on the last tin J, anil
the result was frequently disastrous; yet
If 1 had not temporarily forgot the
"forward press" all would bao been
well, for otherwise, I was swinging well.
What 1 worked out In my half-hour al
Chicago golf was but an cMianslon of an
Idea born of a Utile Incident al Dulutb.
On one of the closing holes 1 had put my
blade too near the ball before pressing
forward and It slipped down the uneven
ground and just turned the ball over a
little Into a ery bad lie. I slopped my
rtroke and played carefully a beautiful
shot to within three feet of the hole.
Sargent, who was standing near me,
r.ald that he thought the ball mmcri. 1
agreed with the view, of course, although
In our games we arc unaoeUMt-md In
take notice of It when It Is clearly an
accident; hut I care niilhitig for winning
except by actual htiiiker, and tu when It
came my time to pull I purposely mimed
the half. But lc Is the time lt be
careful about such a thing happening
again, and In the extra hour today 1 put
my clubhead In Hie address about an
Inch behind the ball nnn the results were
ery gratifying.
I war careful to fie that when t had
a cry hard tie in the tough t did not
place tliit club head almost next to the
ball, because I might be guilty of Im
prolng the lie by parting tho grass or
I might again make it change Its posi
tion. On my half hour of practice that low
erlng afternoon I recalled how sweetly
tlil.s little stunt permitted the club head
to go through the ball. Another thing
that It v.ve me wffs a clearer vision of
Ihe Imaginary direction line wlildh
means so much to my golf. Then I
added to my stunt the little luo-f.-nt
follow-through I described the other
day. .tnil behold! I was getting won-1 M
lipiltll FtiniH. I iiitil i,(iuill otic iiiui.:
4Jm rlr.hl nccentcd beat to the rhythmic
measure
I Imagined too, that my club head
was on the ground abiut a foot, and
this leads me to say that It Is almost
necessary to lake turf. I hate to tell
this to the average person, but the little
scarred spot really does knit oxer easily
If the dlxot Is carefully replaced and
you do not dig too deep in mother earth.
But 1 beg you to replace those divots'
immediately and carefully or every
greenkeeper In the country will rWe up
against me. Be doubly careful ,and
rpare me from their wrath.
I have ofleu been asked when the bol
tom of the blade rntero the ground, some
Hctually bellexlng it was before the
ball was hit. Let me say here that
nothing, no uplashlug of Kami or mud,
should get between the sulking surface
and the ball. It ii my gucs that the
Mid Is flr't cut about an elfclith of an
Inch back of the rc'tiiig ball and then
the club head goei through the lurt
with the ball and the luif steadies the
club head and nice3oarlly the night.

Cincinnati, O., June IX
In a majority finding the National Haseball Commission rtcrtlny de
clared the transfer of f'lajcr Scott Perry from the AllanU rluli to the
Philadelphia American League club null and xold, nml uphold the claim
of the Boston National League club to the player's services upon the pay
ment of $2000 to thq Atlanta club. The Huston dub wis ulso permitted
to return the plajcr to Atlanta If, after thirteen days' trial, It desires to
do Ml.
President Johnson, of the American League, did not concur In the
finding, Which was signed by Chairman August Herrmann, of the National
Commission; President Tenor, of the National League, nml Secretary J. It.
Knrrell. of the National Association. President It. H. Hough, of the .South
ern Association, filed a minority finding, In which lie stated lie believed
the Atlanta club was within Its rights In disposing of Pciry to Ihc Phila
delphia club.
Perry was sold by Atlanta to tho Boston Nationals for $2000, optional
agreement, but deserted the tealrt on June 17( 1917. The Hoston club was
assured at the time that If tho player ever returned to organized baseball
Uprights would he protected, although the National League notified
Hoston that It could not enrry the player on Its Inclllglblc list, as he was
being carried on Atlanta's Ineligible list. Hoston at that time had paid it
$500 Installment of' the $2i5u agreed for the plaj cr.
This cur Atlanta sold the player to the Philadelphia Amcrlcanr. nnd
Hoston complained and laid claim to the plnycr, provldlnf; it fulfilled the
original agreement made to Atlanta. The majority of the roniniii-i-ion
upheld Boston's claim.

'the American proa play. He drlxcs a
urrittc. ball, and on tnojt two-slut holes
he uses a uiashl" nlbllc mr his ap
proach shot, so far does he hit them.
He frequently pla.xn under a sexeny
and rarely dt.es he go oxer 70 or 77, so
there Ik a treat la slore for ou.
Hagen Is suppos'd to be the longest
drlxcr of the timrtet and some of his
tie shots arc wonderful to look at. lie
Is also a master mechanic with his
Irons. Marston also hits a long ball,
and xcc may took forward to a scries of
terrific wooden shots fiom the xnrious
tees. There Is every indication that the
battle xxlll bo concentrated on the short
game, and the green and the best ball
of either pair ought to be low.
To Auction CanMic Prixilegc
The. privilege of acting as the caddie
for the four men xxlll be sold to the
four highest bidders, and ns nil this
money xxlll go to the P.ed Cross It Is
expected that a largo sum xxill be
realised from this alone. In addition,
the four balls used by the players will bo
sold to the highest bidders after the
first hole has been played, and. hi all
likelihood, the score cards will also
be sold lo the spectators. The gallery
xxlll not be. charged any specific sum,
and may give what they please for the.
badges which xxlll be sold by the Ited
Cross women, but the minimum contrlhu-
Hon Is fixed at $1, which Is very cheap
for the sort of golf eulcrtaltnment these
1 four players will provide.
