A new system Of par handicapping in golf
has been devised. It was given out for the
first time by President Lionel H. Graham
at the executive committee meeting Of the
New Jersey State Golf Association, held in
New York city yesterday. In addition to
President Graham. all the members of the
executive committee were present, as fol-
lows: Robert Bae Kerr, Lakewood; Paul
Wilcox, Montclair; Secretary H. H. Spies,
Montclair; c. F. Watson, Essex county;
F. B. Reimund, Englewood.
After meeting was called to order Mr..
Graham presented his handicap scheme,
which, after being explained, met with the
unanimous approval of his colleagues. In
brief, Graham's method is for the clubs to
adopt as basis for their handicapping the
par score Of their links. Theoretically, this
system Is correct. In practice, however it
will be found impossible to accurately re-
present the playing values of the different
holes in whole figures. The remedy, there
fore, Is to allow half strokes, which Is the
system recommended.
Par Is based entirely upon the playing
length OF a hole. and it has been recom-
mended that the par for distances be off,
cially rated as follows: -,

MAY MEET IN CHICAGO.
Base Ball Magnates to Get Together in

There is possibility that the peace meet
ing Of the warning base ball leagues will be
held in Chicago instead of Cincinnati Still
it is not certain that a peace meeting will
be held at ALL President Ban Johnson and
Garry Hermann are maintaining their po-
sitions on the rapid-f1re letter line, and the
outcome is 'in the air."
Johnson announced in Chicago yesterday
afternoon that he was waiting Hermann s
reply to the letter he sent him Tuesday, and
until that was received he could not speak
positively as to whether or not he would
call a meeting.
It was limited around American League
headquarters that Chicago would be bet
ter place for the meeting than Cincinnati in
the event that 1t was called to meet the
latter part Of this week. Johnson, Comis-
key and Hart are on. the ground, and only
few hours notice would be required to get
Hermann Killilea and Somers there.
If there is to be peace meeting It Will
have to be held before January 10 or be
postponed until after the annual meeting
of the American League in New York. Ban
Johnson and Charles Comiskey are now
busily engaged laying wires for a bear
hunt, and stories of prOwess overshadowed
base ball politics around in Chicago. The

Suppose the scratch player of q club holds
the amateur record for his course Of 70 and
the par for the course is rs. he would re-
ceive a handicap Of and all the other
players would be rated on the same basis.
All that would be necessary for the handf-
capper to do would be to work out the par
score Of his course in accordance with the
official rating just given, bearing in mind
the physical configuration of the various
holes, and adjust his handicaps accordingly.
It Is not intended that the boyle Of the vari-
Gus courses shall in any way be changed.
The par score Is only intended for the han
dicap committees Of the different clubs in
order to enable them to rate their players
on a standard basis
Former Amateur Champion Walter J.
Travis, who has been made acquainted with
the par system, has, written letter to
President Graham, in which the plan has
his hearty Endorsement in every particular.
The system will be presented for official
adoption at the annual meeting of the New
Jersey State Golf Associa ton, to be held in
New York city on January q. Travis says
he would like to see the Metropolitan Golf
Association have its handitapping conduct
ed along the same lines
The Seabright Golf Club was elected to
membership Of the New Jersey Association
at yesterdays meeting and a commune
cation was read from the Country Club of
Atlantic City, in which 1t was stated the
latter would also apply.

LAVIGNE TO BOX JORDAN.
Scrap to Come Off in London on Derby
Night

''Kid' Lavigne. the ex-lightweight cham
pion Of the world. who has been in England
for several weeks looking for a match, has
at last been successful. He has been Sc
cured by Matchmaker Bettinsen of the Ma
tional Sporting Club of London to meet
Ben" Jordan, the champion featherwefght
Of England, in a f1fteen-round bout before
that club on Derby night, during the last
week in May.
The boxers will battle at 1913 pounds
weigh in at 3 o'clock on the afternoon Of
the contest. for a nurse Of 81 600 and a side
wager Of $500. Lavigne is at present
travelling with a vaudeville troupe in Paris
If Lavigne trains faithfully for the con-
test there is no doubt that plenty Of money
will be wagered by English sporting men
on him to beat Jordan. despite the fact that
Jordan Is one Of the most popular boxers in
England.
The great battle Lavigne put up against
Dick Burge, the English lightweight
champion. six years ago before the Nation
al Sporting Club. which he won in seven
teen rounds Is still fresh In the minds OF
the English sporting men, and 1t Is that
which will cause them to wager on the
American.

the exception of the 10 to 1 chance, were

many thousands Of dollars.
The winner that attracted most attention
was Planudes that won the second event, a
six-furlong dash. He is typical English
thoroughbred, being of big bone and of fine
conformation. He Is the only horse by ST.

brought him here.
Redfern rode one Of his brilliant races on
Sheriff Bell in the fourth race and landed
the handicap for NJ. L. Hayman, the New
York horSeman. Farmer Jim was the
choice. but he did not reward his hackers
and finished third. Both the favorite and
Mrs. Frank Foster killed their chances by
making too much early pace. Redfern lay
back and nursed his colts speed He call
ed upon him for winning squirt just at the
right moment.
