who were sacrificed at eighteen holes III
great hurry is known throughout the coun-
try.
That 9G-hole matches are desired by all
the leading amateurs in championship Is
a fact beyond dispute. Last year the
changes in the result at thirty-six holes
from the morning round at eighteen holes
we're most significant. 1t VIII De reiheh-
bered that in 1903, at Garden City w D.
Travis was / up at eighteen holes IN the
morning, but lost his match to Jerome u
TraYers by up at thirty-siX holes IN
1905. at Chicago, d. r. Sawyer was up on
Chandler Egan in the morning, but lost
at the thirty ighth hole in the afternoon

match by up.
A favorite story In Philadelphia golf cir
ces tells Of a put which William z. smith
made against A. J. p. Gallagher some
Years ago at St David's. The champion
ship OF the city was at stake, and on the
seventeenth green Smith had rather
short put for the match and title 1t took
nearly twenty minutes before he finally
holed Il. Because OF a remarkable series
Of Interruptions. caused by passing freight
cars a fOck of hlacLhirds Girl with a
red dress. ar over curious old gentleman in
the gallery and finally an express train
Mr. Smith wisely refrained from attempt
ing such an important stroke until he could
absolutely concentrate. 1t does seem droll,
but nothing is funny to the man who is en-
gagged in an important competition. The
humorists will invariably be found swap
ping pleasantries in the third sixteen.
There is another yarn. 10 the effect that
once mediocre player offered TO play a
match with one who was much better pro-
floed he was permitted &c shout Boob"
lust once when the other was playing AS
matter OF fact, he did not resort to the
afuhce at ALL yet he won because the other
played all of his strokes In a fearful fash
Ion expecting each time to hear "Booh?'
shouted In his ears. This expectation of
interruption completely destroyed his con-
eentraton
