GOLF BALLS.

LONDON, February 15.-When the House
OF Lords recently decided that there was

many came to the conclusion that the re-
suit would be an increase of competition 10

article. To judge. however, by remarks
made recently by a prominent member OF ons
OF the leading firms. the almost certain co l.
tingency of the Immediate future Is IN
crease In the price of the ball.
He stated that there would come into
operation very shortly rule by which only
8 cents each would be allowed for returns
instead of IL cents. in the past. That

as under the old scale OF allowance. The
three leading Scottish golf-ball manufacture
inE firms had, he said. agreed to this ar
rangement, and 1t was practically certain
that the chief English firms. as well as the
American firms trading in this country,
would fall into line.

neutrality-suspicious.
While j do not regard the fact that

the part of the Battler, the general Inn
PRECISION made by the fight on those
who saw IL, and who are competent to
Judge, leaves little doubt in my
mind that the hard hitting Hegeswitch
youngster has Joined the great and
growing army OF has beens."
The number OF men who have out
pointed the Dane In ten-round go
can almost be counted by the number
OF men that he has fought that num-
Der of rounds. AS a boxer. the BattIer
never WAS bowling success. He won
his fight by main strength and per-
severance. L am not at all certain
that had the bout been to finish in
stead of ten rounds, as 1t was at Los
Angeles, nelson WOuId not nave worn
down Unholz and beaten him, as he
has done so many other good young
sters; but the opinion OF experts who
saw the fight is to the contrary and
that Nelson has lost his power to
punch.
The same Is true of Britt. and when
these two back numbers meet, 1T VIII
be interesting to see which of the TWO
has gone fartnest back.
Unholz. undoubtedly, by reason of
the decision which gave him the long
end OF the purse. VIII now get on a
match with Packy Mcfarland. and the
winner OF that bout will doubtless have.
81 chance to wrest the title from Joe
Cans. My own impression Is that the
Chicago boy Will prove the better man
OF the two, and unless he meets wIJh
some mishap two or three hard ring
battles will give him the experience in
ring generalship necessary to enable
cess with the Baltimore oyster opener
as to who Is really the lightweight
champion of America.
Mcfarland has many of the ear
marks of the successful fighter, and If
I had to pick man now before the
public who had the best chance of
beating Cans out, | think my choice
would fall on Packy. 1t is necessary
for him, however, to gain considerable
ring experience before he would have
