FIGHT-OR-WORK LAW AND
NEW DRAFT RULE WORRY
LOCAL GOLF PROFESSIONALS
Clubmakers and Caddie Masters Also Affected by Statute
That Puts Their Present Business in
' Nonessential Industries
By WILLIAM
T)HILADELPHIA Bolf professional?.
their assistants, clubmakers nnd
cadele masters are wondering Just what
effect the work-or-flght rule which went
Into effect the 1st of this month will
have on them. But nine of them have
nothing to worry ahout as to the possi
bility of Blvlng up their jobs to cngiiKo In
essential work, nnd there Is a reason.
These nine ore In the service, either of
the United States or Urcat Britain.
Here they arc: Duncan Cuthhert, rtlv.
erlon, now In Franco with a. Canadian
regiment : Joe Seka, Stentnn, Camp
Meade ; Stanley Henrn. "St MungT Club.
Camp Meade : Donald Morrison. Bon Air,
Canada : Jimmy Thompson, Merlon, ono
of thfe southern camps ; Jimmy (Jullane,
Merlc'n, one of the southern camps;
Jimmy Dougherty, Ovorbrook, Camp
Lee; Bob Barnelt, l'ocono Manor, Fort
Oglethorpe ; Kddle Loos, Philadelphia
Cricket Club, naval reserves ; Charlie
Hoffner, Phllmont, naval reserves. In
all, there are eighty golf professionals In
this country now in Allied service,
What Can They Do?
So the ones that are worrying are the
pros who are at present sticking to their
Jobs and wondering how and when the
lightning will strike. Most of them are
married men with children. A few are
bachelors, some with dependents and
some without.
Most of them are earning a comfort
able living. The majority of them have
been golf professionals and clubmakers
since their teens and few of them are
skilled mechanics. And there Is the rub.
Here Is the way one of them stated the
case to me yesterday:
' "I have been In the golf business ever
alnce I was a lad. I can rrialte and re
pair golf clubs and I can teach the game
to others. Last year 1 made In the
neighborhood of $3000. I am married
nnd have two children. I am perfectly
willing to give up golf, "hut It will take
tjme for me to find work that will give
roe anywhere near tno money 1 am
making. I am not a skilled mechanic
and I do not know a thing outside of
golf Naturally. I cannot get a position
that will pay me anywhere near the
amount I can make as a golf profes
sional. I understand that we will be
given time to get new positions, but
where can I get a Job that will begin
to pay me enough to support my fam
ily?" Allied Draft Rule Hits Them
Some of the local gr.(f professionals
are past the conscrlptlvo age, but most
of them are affected by the agreement
recently drawn between the American
and British Governments which gives
the British subjects in this country a
certain time In which they can enlist
In their own service, if they fall to do
this they may be cunrcrlptcd Into the
American army. Tho draft ago for the
British Is from twenty to fcrty-four.
The Irish are not atficted by the agree
ment. Many of the Philadelphia profession
als are affected by m'.s agreement, as
they are subjects of Ureat Britain. At
the time of region nion nil who were
from twen'y-one to thirty registered nnd
classified. But there are others .who
aro forty-fcur nnd under who are af
fected by the new agreement. These
must do one of two tnings: either enlist
In the British service or be conscripted
Into tho American army.
Hobson's Choice
Those who are mamed and have chil
dren or other dependents will not be
aqected materially, as they come under
the American registration laws, but the
bachelors from twenty to forty-four
without dependent parents must fight
cither with the British or American
army, unless they nro exempted for
cause.
So the British professionals are be
tween the devil and the deep sea. If
they arc over thirty and under forty
five they must HkIu either under the
American or the British flag.
Some of the local professionals who
are affected by either cne at these two
rulings or both are Jimmy Thomson,

Bill Wilson's Sensible Cup
One of the finest golf cups that ha
ever been offered is the William B, Wil
son Cup at Bala. This cup was given
by the Director of Public Safety nnd Is
based on club handicaps. It Is vir
tually a permanent trophy, for It must be
won three times before the winner can
take It home. Th's Is tho first yenr It
has been contested for and the first six
teen has been fighting It out for the
past month. The members qualified not
on their gross but their net scores nnd
George Klauder, the club champion, nnd
Bill arc In the second flight. The final
ists for the cup are D. W. Plnncy and 0
M. Brouse.
It Is run on n very sensible plan. If
It were n scratch affair It would last
ab6ut three seasons and George Klauder
would bo the probable winner. Tutting
the tournament on a handicap basis
given every member or tne ciun a cnance,
ic;
rill
ns every match Is played according to I
club handicaps nnd the lowest ratcu
player must concede strokes on certain
holes to the highest rated player. This
type of tournament Is becoming more
nnd mnrn nnmil.lt In the rltlllS for on a
scratch bas's such tournaments are won
by any ono of four or live men ana in
some clubs the scratch player Is In a
class by himself, Just as Klauder is at
Bala.
Hackneys Play Remarkable Match
CInrenco nnd Bill Hackney had a re
markable match nt Bala recently. Bill
shot a 72 nnd brother Clarence a 73 nnd
the Bala professional beat the Atlantic
City man 1 tip. The curious thing nbout
the match was that the first 17 holes
were halved, n most unusual state of nf-,
fairs. And then Bill won tho shori
ninth w'.th a three to his brother's four,
On tho last 0 Bill had par figures for
every one of the holes Bill went to
North Hills, where his brother Jim is
tho professional, and the first time he
ever played the course he registered n

Even Eight-Ounce Gloves
Fail to Deprive Champion
of Knockout Win
STINGER IS STOPPED
By JAMES S. CAROLAN
Wlldivood, N. .1., July 5. For the sec
ond time In his two starts against the
world'u lightweight champion. Jack
Brazzo, of Knzlcton. failed to go the
regulation distance, the referee stop
ping, the fight with Benny Leonard at
tho ball park yeuterday afternoon with
only forty seconds of the eighth nnd
last round to do. Leonard dealt out a
revere lacing to the Hnzleton entry, and
In the sixth round dropped Ills op-
ponent for the nine count.
Under a blistering sun more than
2000 fight fans turned out to witness
the Inaugural boxing bill at the sea
shore resort, and rooters from Phila-
tlolphla. Now
York and other seashore
cltlcn made tho jaunt to see the king
of lightweights perform. . His work
against the rugged, game and willing
Brazzo left nothing more to be desired.
He boxed a wonderful fight, hit ac
curately nnd with terrific torce. never
gave his man a chance to get set and
continually dealt out punishment.
Brazzo was a ready target for that
i ,nmnB,nff Mt ,,,., nni, nnIy lare

i lirazro in Distress
Brazzo was In distress In the fifth,
I sixth, seventh and until the time Ueferee
I Krnnk (Poll) O'Brien was forced to in-
, tcrvene, In Brazzo's first meeting he
hUnltlcrt into a left In the first round,
which caused his nose to bleed so freely
, tnnt tnu rPferre halted the engagement
i tn tnc fourth round. Yesterday Leonard
wnB punching even better, and only won
dcrful physllnl condition enabled Brazzo
to stand up under the severe punishment
and the withering sun.
It was anything but a glorious Fourth
for Lew Stinger. The veteran Quaker
City boy attempted to dispose of Kreddy
Ileese. Leonard's clever sparling partner,
hut failed, for ho walked Into n right
smash to the Jaw in tho second round
that sent him Into dreamland for five
minutes. He was carried from the ring,
and It required plenty of work on the
part of tho physician to revive him.
When he dropped his heail struck the
canvas with n thud, and did much to
make Beesc's smash very effective,
Otto O'Keefe Scores
Otto O'Keefe. and Steve Morris put on
a gruelling encounter, with O'Keefe,
chaperoned by Nick Hayes. Nick, wear
ing a clean collar, new cravat nnd smok
ing a long stogie, directed the campaign
of his protege from the top of the left-
field stand.
Bobby Burns came through In flashy
style, surprising Mas Williamson In their
four-round battle. Williamson had all
the better of the first round, nnd even
dropped his man early In the second,
but the rest of the way Burns heat his
man severely. Johnny Tyman opened
the show by scoring a knockout over
Tommy Burke in the second round.
Matchmaker Jack Hanlon was pleased
with the showing of tho boys and with
the turnout, which was held down duo to
the fire at Sewells Point. Jack also
nssisted In raising funds for the war
saving and thrift stamp campaigns.

CLEAN-UP AT BOSTON
The Phils erne hack from their clean
up In Boston and were gentltmen about
town, nnd prepired to tnkc an early
evening train for Clnclnnntl.uhcre they'll
open their second western drive of the
year.
That the Mornn men w; nnd the Beds
every hit ns Bimple.as tho Braves, is
tho opinion of Pat and his men. Tight
pitching, almost tcnsatlon.il in its
stinginess, brought nbout the three
straight victories In Boston ; that, and
almost air-tight defensive work In the
pinches. The same sort of tactics Is
calculated to be sufficient to stop Christy
Mathcwson's misdirected and energy
rcntterlng Bedlegs,
Quite the most pleasing feature In
Boston, according to, Pat himself, was
the exceptionally valuable manner In
which Harry Pcarcc. comported himself
at second base and at the bat. Tho cr
ror column shows thut he made threo
errors In the series, one Wednesday
afternoon and two In tho holiday
matinee. Ho docs seem to have a ten
dency to befoozle ground bnlls which are
straight at him, but In ranging either
way. In leaping a few yards Into the air,
after drives and in running hack, di
rectly or to center or foul territory, he
Is another Kddle Collins.
He scored two runs with his single
to left In the game Wednesday. Ills
ripping shot right through Jimmy Smith
chased over the winning run In the ltoll
day milkman session. Then he topped It
all off by crashing out a tearing trple
yesterday afternoon In the twelfth In

it was only a matter of time before he
scored with the wlnnnlng tally.

put on. His work was satisfactory and
he showed such aptitude that after u
week he was promoted to foreman.
Lnst Saturday, Chief Bender was
walking through the yards and thought
the overnlt-clad figure on the side of
the ship looked familiar. The chief
fixed his eagle eye on the man mid after
a close examination uttered n whooi) of
joy.
"Hey," he yelled. "Come down hire.
I want to talk with you. How long
hae you been here?
"About two weeks," shouted the worli
mnn ns he climbed down. "Got n Job
ind I like It."
"Come over wllh me and play some
baseball," sa'd the chief. "Vo need
you on the team. Why didn't you let
us know you were working lure?''
"1 didn't care much about playing
with nil of this work cm hand." retorted
the man in overalls as he took off his
buckskin gloves. "But now that I have
been discovered, 1 might as well play
on your ball club. Lend me to it I"

Last winter our transportation facilities were overwhelmed to
such an extent that we suffered from the greatest freight conges
tion in our history.
Many a successful business man looks back to those nerve-straining
months with the bitter recollection of lost profits due to
inability to deliver goods.
What About Next Winter?
It is significant that Government officials and certain representa
tive business men, who are giving the subject much close attention,
predict that next winter may bring us a still greater problem.

PINE VALLEY HAS ONLY WORTHWHILE;
LONG HOLE IN COUNTRY, SAYS EVl
TTtt'CnV, one
has htnrd of the Chevy
JLj p
Chase golf course nt Washington,
but the Columbia Cio'f Club Is not so
well known, nnd yet I think that It I?
one of the best In the country and de
serves better acquaintance
Wherever there Is u fine gnlf course it
Is well to look for one man who has
heen able nnd willing to gle thought
and time to the wortc. The man of the
Columbia Uolf Club Is lr. L. L. Har
han, director of tho United States (ic.lf
Association for n. numDer of years, a
great lover of the gitme and one who
has plnved It'well hlniFelf. Doctor Hnr
han. too. was lnrgeiy responsible for
the successful Bed Cross match recently
plnved there a match which, so far. I
consider the bet. as to golf In which
I have played this sensbti. net even ex
cepting the finely rnmcrtefl one at th
Lake Shore Club, Chicago.
The Columbia C.olf full la located. I
rnture to gisM. nbout ten miles from
the center of Washington, and one can
motor there tbrr.itgb tne famous Na
tional Park on the way out The club
house Is a substantial one of graceful
lines and on the occasion of the Bed
Cros match was bc-iutlfully decorated
with Old (llnry. the Bed Cross banner
and the flags of our Allies.
Not a Hole Over 500 Yards
The course lies li. an Interesting bit
of countrv and the holes are well de
signed Th- llnkM arr unusual, in the
fact that although It Is more than filon
yard as we playc. tnem, there Is no
hole more than BOO yanis In length. This
is a good thing In . way. for there Is
a rather tiresome m.motony nbt.ut most
long holes. Indeed. 1 know of but one
long hole In the country that Is really
Intel esting. and that Is the seventh at
Pine Vnlley.
One feature I liked about the C olum
bla course was the Isolation they have
been able tn get on holes that arc hU
nlly close together ; you do not see the
players on the other nole. The fair
greens are of excellent quality, and the
greens are true, nf good varying size
and-linn nnd not tun rolling. Doctor
Hnrhnn has made a study of the bunker
ing of greens and the result is that the
greens at Columbia are already well
guarded More trap:, however, are to
follow. As the cot i he stanus now it
meets the real test of a good coursf;
that Is. before you get around you will
hate played eveiy club in your bag.
8000 Sec Fine Match
The Bed Cross match of June was at
thirty-six holes and the players were
Hied McLeod and ,ne writer against
Jim Barnes and Walter Hiigen. The
day was Ideal, nelthti- net nor cold, and
with a soft hazy blue sky. The papers
had given good publicity to the event,
and even early in tin. morning there was
u fair crowd, and before the first eight
een holes were finished there must have
heen a thousand people in our gallery.
Many m-re came nut tc; luncheon, and
others arrived rapidly tor tho afternoon
r.umrl :inil before It was ended there
