I GOLF GAINING CONVERTS
Fifty Thousand New Devotees for Sport
Last Tear, Is Claim
New Turk, Jan. 25.—Without a
doubt the game of golf is gaining eon
I verts, perhaps more rapidly tba'n any
other sport. Once looked upon as dis
! tinetly the sport of the men of some
! age and avoirdupois, it reaches now
j into all ages aud types of men for its
followers.
Wide press ageuting, one go'.f ex
pert declares. i s responsible for the ad
vance in golfing. Word that sturdy
: athletes like i'hristy IMathewsou and
I other ball players had turned to chas
ing the little ball across the green
j brought many followers to the game.
They even report h&re that Jolio .1.
'McGraw, of the Giants, is about to
take up the pastime of John D. Rocke
feller and other notables. The report,
however, seems to be based on nothing
more tangible than the fact that
".lawn" was presented with a tine
assortment of golf sticks.
Tlie arniv of fanatics who plav the
game in this country was increased
last, year by more than 30,000, nc
cordijig to representatives of golf supply
houses. At the recent meeting of the
1 nited States Golf Association, a gain
in membership ot' 3.°. golf clubs with
membership ruunjng into the thousands,
was reported over the previous year.
The growth of municipal golf courses
has brought out. regiments of new
golt' enthusiasts in larger cities of the
country. .There is every reason to be
lieve that the coming season will see a
great host of recruits to the game.
