The eagle-eyed Teddy rarely makes
mistakes in a matter of this sort, and
his memory Is remarkable. The STAR
does not desire that any bow er shall
be barred from the tournament, II
being open to all. Because Of the fact,
however, that so many wish to pc form
within a comparatively limited period,
1t has been found necessary to make
q rule to the effect that no bowler
shall roll more thai once in the tour
nainent. To be consistent 1t Is neces-
sary that there shall be no violations of
this rule. Referee Wilson is absolutely
fair and impartial. He disqualifies
none without reason, and he never
acts unless he is sure of his ground.
Ten teams performed last night.
Many OF the members Of these leans

OF CLUBS FOR PLAYERS.

CHICAGO, Jan. 17.-Merhbers Of the
executive committee of the United
States Golf Association met yesterday
and drafted their Interpretation of the
rule relating to form and make of
golf clubs" The Interpretation pre-
sented at the annual meeting read:
"a golf club Of the mallet-headed
type is @ club which Is so constructed
that the length of head from the back
of the heel to the toe shall be less
than the breadth from the face to the
back of the head. The shaft may be
fixed at the heel or at any other point
in the head"
The new Interpretation made yester-
day ts as follows:
The shaft of a putter may be fixed
at the heel or at any other point in the
head. The term 'mallet-headed' as
used in a previous paragraph of this
resolution. when applied to putters,
does not embrace putters OF the So
called Schenectady type"

Had Smith been picked up by the New

for Larry Schlafy to purchase his re-

Joe explained the situation to Smith

he was to sign with the Newark club

Joe is sore al Larry's way of doing
