American golfers are yearning for a
simplihcation Of the rules. They want
to walk the links in calmness and serenity.

and confusing code.

of the United States Golf Association

of our PLAYERS 10 the conservato II the
code, the rules committee Of the Royal
and ancient Golf Club Of st. Andrews.

chairman said that the rules were To he

Many Of our golfers believe that il
will be idle to tinker the old code again.

q few Scottish links, tho revisions Of

The Temptation OF swarthmore

The friends of education now gaze with
imploring but hopeful eyes upon the
trustees Of Swarthmore College. Are
they equal to the task OF the Great Re-
fusal laid upon them by tho will of an
amiablc but misguided devotee OF out
worn ideus? S%warthmore, which has
beaten Pennsylvania at football; Swarth-
more, encircled with garlands Of the
man ennobling gymnasium and looking
forward eagerly to new honors on the
field: Swarthmore is asked TO fling away
her glory and her opportunity for a mis-
cradle million or two. Give ZIP intercol
legiate sports and the money is hers.
We have no doubt about the decision.
Swarthmore will not sink TO the degraded
and abhorred state Of a college where
study. that most infamous of mollycod-
dee, is practised and cherished. Such a
reaction is as impossible as il would be
infamous.
No; the country has confidence in the
soundness and pride in the achievements
of American colleges: and it knows that
they will v yield to any attempt to
restore among them the sinister reign N
intelligence.

Hiding Crime.

Under the law which went into effect
on September l adultery, the only cause
for divorce in this State. il a misde-
mesnor punishable by fine OF imprison-
ment. Until this law became effective
the sin WIS not a crime and the practice
Of sealing the papers in divorce cases
vas mi Hiding the evidence in
this class Of cases was defended on the
ground that M good could como from
making public the details of such actions
and that the courts should use their dis
erection TO keep unsavory stories from
general circulation.
Now, however, every adulterer is
guilty OF a crime. The fsithless husband
or wife and the correspondent in an action
for divorce are liable to arrest and prose-
cution in the criminal courts. Under
these circumstances can the sealing of
papers continue without creating a privi-
legged class of law breakers, protected by
the courts from the results Of their mis-
doings? Can the law against adultery be
enforced equitaby il a few of the guilty
persons are allowed TO have their secrets
kept by the authority of the court, while
the large majority have their guilt spread
OH the open RECORD?
The adultery Law is a miscellaneous en-
actment. the principal result Of which
unquestionably will be to enlarge tho
field for Matchmaking. That 1t will pre-
vent men and women from disregarding
their marital obligation no sane person
believes. In general, it's effects will be
bad; but II it turns out to have the Incl
dental result Of putting IN and to secrecy
in divorce proceedings It will no. he en-
tirely without merit.
