GoItTne by Moonlight

Golf may some time in the not so
distant future be played frequently at
night. The possibility of this eventu-
ally coming about was demonstrated
recently by A. ]. Watson of the Dun
woodle Country club of New York, who
played an eighteen-hole round over
the Dunwoodle course by moonlight in
eighty four strokes.
Mr.. Watson started from the first tee
at S:35 p. m. and finished the entire
round in two hours and ten minutes.
About twenty-five club members fol-
lowed the play, some of them helping
tie four professional caddies who had
been engaged to keep an eye on the
ball"
No one who has not tried to play
golf by the light of the moon can real
ize it's difficulties. Even in the bright
est moonlight it is impossible to see
the ball in flight. The only method Of
tracing it is by sound. The caddies
and gallery scatter out in front of the
player and listen for the ball to drop
after they hear it click from the i'm
pact of the club.
Mr.. Watson was particularly forIu-
nate in not losing his ball once. his
greatest luck in this way being on the
drive from the thirteenth tee. The bah
crashed into a tree on the edge of the
woods and rebounded to the edge of
the fair green on the opposite side of
the course.

Frank Leroy Chance

Frank Leroy Chance, manager or the
Chicago Nationals, is one Of the most
brilliant men playing baseball to-day.
Had it not been for the efforts of this
great leader the Cubs would not &C
cupy the position they DO in baseball
The peerless leader" is close 10 six
feet tall. slightly bOw-legged and moves
about with the grace of a hippOpota
mus. He has a husky pair of shout
ders and a powerful pair of arms. how
ever. and IS marvellous exhibition OF
muscular development.
Generally his face wears q strained
expression In other words, he usu-
ally carries his fighting face with
him. To glance at him and pass a
hurried comment one would likely re-
marx that he was a sour, cranky sort
of hinan being; but to a person
who really knows Frank Chance he is
r'loCeI for kindness and chivalry.
Discipline among his men is what
Chance demands And that is one of
the reasons for his continued success.
He Is net a Dit backward about bali
nag out" man on the field, either He
hiss no favOrites; it does not matter
whether he is talking to his closest
friends. big Orvie" Overall, unassum-
Ing little Johnny Kane or the pestifer-
Gus Evers. They all look alike to him
on TIE BAH field.
Chance is a Napoleon in action, If
not in appearance. If there is any
army the peerless leader can command
1t Is the little band of twenty or so
that represents Chicago in the Ma
tional league. His players shrink from
his wrath. Just as they respond to his
praise or commands.
He is a natural-born gentleman.
Recently ruffian insulted one of the
women folk while the Cubs were on
board a train east-b bound. Chance
heard of the occurrence several hours
later and Immediately proceeded to
give the tough the beating of his life. |
If the Cubs win the worlds series !
this fall it will be due almost as much !
to Chances efforts as to the rest of the
team combined.
Chance is a great automobile e,thu-
siast. After each game is over Mr.. /
and Mrs. Chance drive home or to the
hotel for dinner. Later they take a /
trip over the boulevards or out through |
the country, and in this manner the
continual strain to which the manager
IS subjected is greatly diminished.
If Chicago ever establishes a hall of
fame the name of Frank Leroy Chance
will not be overlooked.
