Golf

With the opening of the golf season
comes the discovery of a new COM
plant, with which amateur golfers are
threatened. This complaint is known
as the "golf tendon" and results from
the over-eXertion occasioned by anna
teur golfers efforts to excel in the
sport imported from Scotland.
Several cases in which amateur golf
ers have been temporarily crippled ow-
ing to the prevalence of golf tendon"
have already been discovered, although
the season has hardly opened.
The crippling of the golfers is the
result of unskillful players placing too
large portion of their weight on the
plantaris tendon in their legs.
Physicians have become acquainted
with many cases in which the plantar-
Is tendon has been snapped and leg
rendered useless owing to excessive
exertion by players. Nearly all the
golfers who have suffered as the result
of injuries to this tendon have been
either amateurs or skilled players who
have lost their equipoise while deliv-
ering difficult strokes. Many OF the
golfers have been confined to their
beds for several weeks as a result of
their exertions. Although the major
ity of the golfers have not broken the
tendon to which the term "golf ten
don" has been applied, several cases
in which the tendon has been snapped
have been reported.
AS yet the doctors have not succeed
ed in finding the exact cause for the
new complaint. This is owing to the
fact that the golfers seldom mention
that they received their injuries while
engaged in their favorite game owing

Sports in General.

According to private cable dis
patches from New York, the proposal
OF the English universities to hold an
athletic meeting at Montreal before
they meet the Americans in New
York Is opposed by Harvard and Yale.
whose athletes want their meeting
with the Oxford-Cambridge team to
occur first. In reference to this state
ment prominent oxford official said:
oxford and Cambridge are not in
the least likely to give way on this
point. Quite apart from the prOba-
bility that Toronto and McGill may
prove a weaker combination than
Harvard and Yale and therefore OK
ford and Cambridge would naturally
prefer. in their semi-trained stage, to
compete with less formidable oppon-
ents at first, and leave their more for
midable rivals for a later date, the
Oxford and Cambridge men would he
perfectly justified in protecting their
own interests before anything else.
We are receiving continuous stream
of advice not to court certain defeat
by doing the bulk OF our preparation
in the vicinity of New York during
the intense heat OF August and most
of September. Therefore we are seek.

Peter Maher. the Irish heavyweight
may take trip to Ireland with his
wife this summer. He wishes to pay
visit to his parents, whom he has not
seen in years. He says there are sew
eral good men in Ireland whom he
thinks would make it interesting for
some Of our pugilists. and it is his in
tention to bring some of his country
men back with him when he returns
and look after their interests while
here. In other words Maher is about
to try his hand at managing fighters,
having made more or less at the other
end Of the game. Where Maher gets
the idea that there are great fighters
In Ireland is a mystery. Unless they
are better than he they will stand little
chance here. Maher has always prom
ised well, but has never quite made
good. What the public wants, any
manager or pugilist will testify, is an
Irish pugilist. For this reason it is
to be hoped that Maher will find one.

Bicycling.

a racing man whose name Is famil-
| lar all across the country made an in
terestng statement recently. He is a
| man now q years old. and has been
an attraction on circuit tracks since
he was Is years of age. He had been
talking about record breaking, and
was asked whether it was due to the
riders, the tracks. or the wheels that
the records went lower every year.
He replied
why. it is the combination of
| everything. The men are wiser in
training methods and more proficient
In track generalship the tracks are
banked higher and not only hold
more speed, but force. and wheels are
better made and run faster every
year
He was then asked how much he
thought the wheels really had to do
with it. His answer was:
THE Improvement in wheels each
year has great deal more to do with
the making OF new records than Is
generally supposed. Take myself for
example. I certainly am not as spry
as ! was few years ago, yet ! man
age to ride faster each season and
keep in with the main bunch fairly
well. I know that every year my
wheel is faster. The tires are being
made better the construction of the
wheels. spokes and rims. I mean, are
improved just little each year. but
enough to make them more resilient.
and that means more speedy. The
bearings are finished and fitted more
perfectly; the chains and Sprockets
are harder. more true and more
smoothly finished. All these things
mean that the machines run easier
Then, too, the frame lines have been
improved. and even that counts.
These points do not seem to amount
to much to the ordinary road riders
who take out their old crooks three
or four years old. They hear talk Of
better finish. higher efficiency i'm
provement of details and so on and
think it is tradesman's CUFF, but the
racing men know better. You don't
catch the crack riders at any tim.
with a last years wheel. A new
wheel means new speed to them and
they have to get them. Talk about
bicycle Improvement being at a halt
to a racing man and he will laugh at
you. There has not been year when
the standardized American wheels
have not been easier running and bet
year. A new wheel means seconds On
the track to a racing man, and it
means much easier going on the road
for every rider. if they only knew it,
but they don't"

Bowling.

strikes AT Schneider's alley, and thus
added his name to the roster of men
who have scored the highest possible
