~ENDEAVORING TO

New York. May s.-The latest thing
in golf Yer in Jersey is the small
band of members of the Montclair
Golf club who have started what they
call the "rightwads' association"
Their excuse for organization is an en-
deavor to recall Real solf, and as a
consequence to refuse to concede short
puts. For years this habit of giving
short puts has been Il generally ac-
cepted courtesy in all but tourna-
ments, and when it had to be made
the short putt is d thing to worry
and fear.
Every golfer will concede that it is
not real golf unless every putt has
been holeh. vet i'm an ordinary round
this is rarely done. The Montclair
club has started the bail rolling to- get
back to the basis of real scores. and a
good portion Of the members have.
without Joining the TiGhtwads. agreed
to neither give nor accept short puts
of any length whatsoever during 1872.
The argument is that a golfer
should not find it harder to make
a good drive from the tee. where all
conditions arr of the best. than 1t is
to make a short putt. vet many Il

Wallace to
Retire as an
Active Player
Quits the Game After Nineteen Years
Spent in Fast CompanA-In
5000 Battles.

Manager Bobby Wallace of the ST.
Louis Browns has virtually retired as
a regular player. This decision was
arrived at owing to the Scots inahil-
itN to get i'm condition to play short
stop. Wallace has been in fast COM
panN for nineteen years. and has taken
part in nearly 1000 games. He began
as u pitcher and was converted into a
third baseman by Manager Pat Te-
beau of the Cleveland Spiders.
Some contend that Cy Young is en-
titled to the honors as the oldest ac-
tive player. Blu it must be considered
that Young has participated in less
than 1000 games.
Bobby Wallace has a fielding record
for the past thirteen years that is lit

has performed at hat position for
thirteen years and has such a great
record. In the thirteen years Wallace
has fislded for a percentage of $40,

GAMES ATTENDED
BEST IN DULL TIMES

Frank G. Bancroft. business man
! ager of the Cincinnati Reds. is au-
thority for the statement !i,nt base
ball games attract more people dur
ing dull times than they do in the
more prosperous years. Throughout
his service of more than forty years
as manager. magnate and business
representative, Bancroft says the
! fans always flocked to the games
I when business was dull. His explain
alton is that commercial men have
| their time taken up With office af-
fairs in the rush periods and are
therefore prevented from having IA
part of any afternoon. except Sunday
to watch the athletes.
The same rule holds good with
mechanics and other workmen.
When they haven't much to do mer-
chants, lawyers and other men al
ways go to II park in the after
; noon" says Bancroft. This is done
for three reasons: They like the
game. their business does not con
sumo all the day and they wish to get
out where they can forget their trou-
bles."
