Thing of Past
I'L'TTKR
out thai the nineteenth hole nists him
more than his goll dues, caddie fees
nnd the amount of money be spends for
golf balls. It makes no difference
whether a player drinks or nol as long
as he pajs for the nineteenth bole: it
costs him just as much as the man
who imbibes.
None of the ilubs has decided yet
what will he done with the stock on
hand. Kvery dub that has a nine-
teenth hole stocked up when Hie war
stalled, for the prii e of materials has
soared since. All this stock will havcj
to be sold, as clubs will not be per-
milted to s( jt to the members after
June :;o.
Whether the members will be per
mitted lo keep Ihe stuff in the lot kers
is another question lo be decided b.v
the dubs. It may happen that this
may be contrary lo Ihe new piohibilion
law as well as the war daw which
shuts down the nineteenth jiole in
June. ;
Increase Membership
.Generally speaking, golfers nre not.
worrying about the new lnvv, and when
it goes into effect most of them vvilli
be glad that the chie source of ex
penditure will he n thing of the past.!
The majority of the dubs probably will
make an effort to increase the number
of playing members, and in this way
offsel the loss of profits from the sale
of liquid goods.
Hut there is''" no doubt that June is
going to he the busiest month in the
history of Hie game. Most of the big
tournament
events here and in other
sections of the coiintrv will be stared
during t lint mouth. Already several
dubs which intended lo bold 'involution
events in the full have decided to trans-
fcr the playing dates to June instead.

The Lure of the Slugger
THC athlete who can rap the ball over the fence finds n far quicker way
to fame linn the one with n. better average who fattens his mark upon I'
the modest single or the almost equally modest double.
Observe the career of I'rnuk Schulte, who is known as one of the great
batsmen of the game, '
Schulte led his league in home runs one season, nnd at all times had a
free, clean wallop that carried far. '
Yel in seventeen seasons of campaigning Schulte halted .300 or better
only twite. In 1010. vvilb the Cubs, he reached .:i00. In Mil he moved up
to .I!0I. liejotid those two seasons his range was between .'.M0 nnd .-SO,
little belter than nverage worth. Yet because of bis long-distance qualities he '
is given a high place in Hie Ancient Order of Sons of Swat. Schulte had the
finesf follow through in baseball. No other nla.ver had Ihe same keen snnn of
the vvrisrs.
H'i,
irai no physical giant, but
than the old Cub, irho proicd
than a little on uieic liinlc foice.

How many machines could drop four stars -two brilliant, hard-hitting
outfielders and two brilliant pitchers and still have the nucleus of u winner
left?
No wonder that old bunch was unbeatable if the remnant is still r
garded, as the most dangrotis outfit in the circuit.
A number of seasons will pass before any club collects three such out
fielders as Lewis, Speaker nnd Hooper were enrolled upon the same rosier.
This trio wns the most valuable outfield rotmd-ip the modern game lins ever
known and this isn't overlooking Cobb. Crawford and.Vcach.
