GOLF GOSSIP

BY ct"
II has been truly said that golf In q
gale OF wind Is the highest form Of
Golf. and according to that reasoning
Oahu Country Club members are be-
ing given a treat as their daily diet.
Undoubtedly man who can play in a
gale is the finest exponent OF golf.
The gale finds out the weak spots In
a mans golfing armor. The slight
slice off the tee is converted by the
gale into hopeless slice. Unless
your shots are hit right "off the
meat" in gale they are not OF much
use. Consequently your good shots
are worth far greater value; they
count for far more or, perhaps,
should say, as far as your score Is
concerned, they count for far less.
The great danger when playing in
a wind is that you should start
"pressingv or scratching" or "slog-
ging." or whatever you call 1t when
you Jerk your club far too quickly
back with your back swing. Start
playing your shots very quietly, and
hit much easier than usual. Human
nature is such that sooner or later
In your round In a gale you will be-
gin to hit harder. Therefore. IL you
take things quietly to start with
you do not run SO big a risk of going
to pieces at the finish through press
ing.
Low Trajectory Needed
With the wind blowing right into
you teeth transfer all the weight of
your body on to your left foot. You
will find this will keep the ball fly
ing at a much lower trajectory. Also
place the ball much nearer your right
foot than usual.
Probably the most difficult form of
golf is when the wind is blowing
right behind you. Judgment of dis
lance and accuracy are so very diff
cult Generally you will find
'cutty" shot will be most effective
when you are in this .predicament- AS
rule you do not want length then,
and a equity" shot is much easier to
control.
Accuracy is far more vital in a
wind than anything else, and If you
can remember this you will gain a
great deal. Golf in a gale is brainy
golf, and you want all your eyes and
brains calling to your aid in your
calculations. For example, take a
shot of 30 yards with the wind blow
ing from right to left. Many handi-
cap players would play out to the
right to allow the wind to blow the
ball on to the right line Those
are not the methods of Braid, a
Vardon, or a Duncan. They are. the
methods of an ignorant golfer. A high
class professional would aim slightly
to the left, and slice the ball up
against the wind. If you think it out
tho advantage is obvious. The ignor-
ant shot may end near the hole once
in, a hundred times. More often the
wind will blow IL right across the
green, or perhaps Will not touch it at
ALL In one case you never know
where you are going, in the other
you have certainty.
Keep Clubs Dry
The same remarks apply If the
wind is blowing from the left to
right only, of course. in that case you
must pull me ball up against the
wind. In each case. as will be
obvious, you will have to play a

At Athletic Park yesterday after
noon, the Kamehameha nine defeat

tremely one-sided from start 70 finish.
Three OF the Saints best players were

on first base. These changes in the
team were the cause Of the Saints

game which Is to be Played soon-
The contest yesterday was no fair
show OF Kamehameha's superiority.

inning, In which seven runs were
brought In.
Hussey, catcher and right fielder
for Kamehameha, made record OF
three hits and three runs out OF tive

next best record with two hits and
one run. Every player on the Kane
hameha team, with the exception OF
one,v had at least one run to his
credit. The game served one purpose
at least, In giving the kamehamena
boys practice in base running.
Many Strike Outs
Bush and opunui took turns In

six and allowed four hits. This u

Nye's only really poor inning vas
the first, In which eleven men came
to bat. In the second frame he
picked up, and played the rest Of the
game In fine style. Koani. Kameha-
mehas first baseman, again starred
at that position. Koani Ii one Of the
best players on the team and can al
ways be counted on TO play 3 fine
game. Hussey, catcher for kameha-
meha, played good game as usual.
The other Kamehameha players also
played well but no chances were Of
fered them In which to star.
None of the Saints did as well -

ell around was the chief reason for
the bad defeat. The catcher was one
OF the weakest points on the team.

is described. with illustrations In the
June Popular Mechanics magazine.
This gun, resembling a cannon in ap-
pearance. and hurting the ball by
means OF gas shot into its breach from
an ordinary repeating rifle, was not
designed TO take the place Of pitch
er in game, but to give batters an
opportunity for unlimited practice.
This gun was successful in that it
would actually throw curves and
throw them accurately, but there was
one defect that could not be overcome,
due to the human equation" The
gun never failed to inspire fear in the
batter. That the batter would know
just when the ball was coming, an
electric wire was run to the batters'
box, and by stepping on the plate the
circuit was closed and the blank cart
ridge In the rifle fired. The average
batter would step on this plate and
then jump back about four feet, let
ting the ball 60 by. Another draw
back was the fact that the hot gases
soon acted on the covers of the balls
and made them as hard as bricks.
An almost unlimited range of speed
was obtained by making the tube
connecting the breech of the gun, into
which the rifle was discharged. tele-
scopic. The shorter the tube, the
greater the force Rubber-faced curv-
ing fingers, adjustable. to any plane
about the muzzle, caused the ball to

Mr.. Hart was enthusiastic over the

introduce the American national sport,
as played by some of its most skillful
exponents, to nations which already
have shown an interest In the game.
He was especially pleased with the
statement that the tour is not a COM

Mr.. Hart, at think the Sox-Giants tour
will be a great success. The people in
the countries to be visited might not
be enthusiastic If they thought it was
a money-making proposition. but with
expense a secondary consideration it
will appeal especially to the Austria
lians, who have a high regard for
American sportsmanship.
"The department and conduct of the
players on and off the field will be
most important, as the people In the

are regarded as legitimate here.
