NEW STYLE FOR GOLFERS
Old School Player Promises to Revo-
lutionize the Game in This
Country.

When the western open golf tournament
was finished, and the post mortems were
being held at the nineteenth hole, the
consistent work and unique style of David
Brown, one of the runners-up, were the.
main subjects Of gossip. This was par
ticularly interesting because Brown, who
Is regarded as golfer of the old school,
has announced his intentions of revolu-
tionizing the game in this country.
Prior to coming to America over two
years ago, Brown played the game in the
regulation manner, but since arriving here
he has changed hissstyle to such an extent
that 1t is now his avowed purpose to revo-
lutionize the existing and accepted method
Of play.
1.-THE American people," remarked
Brown, "have baseball swing, and that
is the style they should adopt in golf. The
follow thru is all a mistake, and is respon-
sible for most Of the pulling and slicing.
81 hit a firm ball and practically stop at
the moment of impact. I have abandoned
| the loose arm swing, because I get better
results from firm shoulder and body shot.
Before coming to America I had been laid
up for year and half, and when re-
covered. owing to lack Of strength, had
to adopt my present style Of playing.

eficial results are fully apparent."-Joseph

Stimnnel Loses for Millers in First
Game Of the Series at
Columbus.
Heagers Men Make Nice Batting
Rally in the Ninth, but
Too Late.

Columbus, Aug 1.-McMakin and Slim
mel were both hit hard yesterday after
noon, but the local man got the better
support, and the discoveries took the first
game of the series. The miller outf1eld
lacked ginger in handling long hits and
Stimmers slow ball was hit several times
for extra bases.
Until the ninth the millers did not look
dangerous, but in this inning Arndts SEN
sational catch of a line drive from Yea
gers bat may have saved the game for
the locals. This catch robbed Yeager Of
two bases. After that Williams, batting
for Stimmel, made the second out. but
Denny Sullivan. whose fast work was a
feature of the game, beat out short in
field hit by brilliant slide. Then Spooner,
Lally and Smith singled in succession,
scoring two men, and leaving two men
on the sacks with two runs needed to tie.
Oyler popped one to Morrissey and the
game was over.
George Yeager and Bannon almost came
to blows the former claiming that Ban
non held his bat when he struck at the
ball. They were separated before any
damage was done. double header is
scheduled for to- morrow here. The score:

York fans are beginning to- think that it
is not SO far to the second division as it
looked.

The pennant race In the American has
practically simmered down to three
clubs, Boston, Philadelphia and Cleve-
land. Detroit Is too light to make trouble
for any one Of the three, and New York
is too far down to get into the hunt, ex-
cept' by phenomenal squirt. The history
of the New York Americans Is one Of the,
most conspicuous examples in baseball
history >of the fact that a team of stars
does not mean an all-star team. q The ST.,
Louis Browns are another instance.
Up to the present time the National
league magnates, with one or two excep
tions, have shown no apparent disposi-
ton to take steps in hereinafter of put
ting stop to the increasing evil Of bet
ting on ball games, says the New York
Sun. It was thought thatgthe club owners
would discuss the matter.While they were
in session recently, but according to the
statements Of > one of the western mag
mates, the subject: did not come up. 1t
was said, however, that the matter would
be taken up by the magnates at their an
n,1al session. and that stringent amend
ments to the organization bylaws and
constitution would be: adopted that would
have the effect of putting a stop to
gambling on the grounds Of. the various
clubs in the big league Gambling on
ball games, If continued, liz bound to re-
suit III scandal that will do more to In
jure the game than anything else could.
What it has cost to place professional
baseball In the high position it now occu-
pies in public opinion only the promoters
Of the sport, and its Close blowers
know, and to have thsG labor of years
torn to pieces by a few gamblers would

Am I Right !?

,-HE state tennis tournament, planned
for September. by the Town and
Country club Of st. Paul, Is a project:
to be commended There has been need of
an event Of this character, of enough
Importance to call out the best talent, yet.
sufficiently restricted in entries so that
the local men, especially the younger
players, would not be frightened out by
the presence of stars from Chicago and
the east.
No one would for a moment advise that
the northwestern tournament should lose
its character as an open event The pres
ence Of experts from outside helps to keep:
the local men in touch with the develop
ment of the game, but it has the disad-
vantage Of keeping out a number. Of the
younger players. A state event will en-
courage these youngsters to perfect their
game, and will do much to foster devel-
opment Of men who can give Minnesota
such standing in tennis as the state had
some years ago.
When George Belden, Charles Hale, Tom
Wallace, Jayne and Cook were in their
prime, Minneapolis had a rank in tennis
second to no city in the west. Since these
men have practically retired, however, no
players have been developed who could
take their. places. Harry Belden babe
