Happily, l am in position now TO demon

INDOOR GOLF AT
THE ARSENAL CLUB
Alex Robertson Is in Chicago
Purchasing a Complete
New Equipment.
GAME PRACTICALLY NEW
Has Proved Popular Since Being De-
vised and Has Been Adopted
by Chicago A. c.

Alex Robertson, professional instruc-
tor of golf at the Rock Island Arsenal
Golf club, is in Chicago purchasing
equipment for the introduction of a
recently devised game known as in
door golf. It is planned to. make it a
regular winter sport at the golf club
and as it is of such nature that it will
keep the players in form all the time
it should prove as popular here as il
has elsewhere.
The Chicago Athletic club has adop-
ted the game and it is being played
there and furnishes considerable
amusement to the members as well as
practice 10 the golf enthusiasts
HOW 1T Is PLAYED.
In indoor golf the players use exactly
the same clubs and balls that are used
in the outdoor game. They use the
same stroke if they so desire and drive
just as hard as they do when on the
links.
The driving is done from a large
mat, and the balls are DRIVEN towards
a large background OF hSdNy canvas
hung from the ceiling and containing
many pockets, each one with a differ
ent value in number of yards.
The ball when it hits the canvas,
drops dead and lands in one of the
many pockets. The value of the drive
figured in number of yards and direc-
ton depends upon which pocket the
ball falls into and the skill of the
player lies in SO directing his drive
that he Will get the best distance and
direction.
SHOULD PROVE POPULAR.
1t can easily be seen that the game
Will develop precision in driving and
will permit the players to keep in trim
all the year round. There will be no
need for long preliminary training in
the spring in order TO regain lost
strokes and accuracy in striking a ball
Because of this. the more expert play
ers are expected to become regular
devotees and the lesser lights are eX-
pected TO get considerable amusement
out of the game.

cf the year There was scrimmage
and signal practice and the first team
was kept at work till nearly O'Clock.
The practice went fairly we'll but not
quite as smoothly as Coach Corneal
desired. This afternoon sees the last
OF the hard practice and tomorrow
there will be nothing but signal prac-
tice. Seven Rock Island men of for
mer years have assisted in the train
ing during the last week and each play
or has had big share of individual at
tention.
SHOWING USUAL CONFIDENCE.
1t is rumored that some Of the Mo
line enthusiasts are Offering odds on
their team and so far as can be learn
ed, all the money that they have to Of
fer has been covered. Despite the
fact that there is rUmoT that Solder
strom. star Iinesman" of the Moline
team is cut OF the game because of a
cold. he having been confined to his
bed since the Rockford game, il is said,
chances are that he will be back in
the game. Moline high school cor
respondent says that he may not be in
the game against Rock Island Satur-
day" He continues, This is not
meant as a bear story and should not
be interpreted as such" We will be
better able TO judge Of the soundness
CT the report when we see the big fell
low prance out on the field Saturday
afternoon. Ainsworth is back in the
game and viii play Saturday. In fact,
though Coach Burroughs has sheltered
his team from the curious by closed
gates at the practice field, it has been
learned that Moline is in better condi-
ton today than at any time this sea
son. and hence the odds offered by the
