smosJ too good to be true That his
Judgment as 10 my game was con
urreo in by Alex Findlay, the PhIa-
ieiDhian who managed the profess

sdditional qualification.
Harry Vardon and Edward Ray
nave Just completed the most wonder
I'll golfng journey ever made in the
'story Of the game, and no other
golfers in the world could possibly
rave their 1rst-hand knowledge Of
american players and courses In
view Of these facts It is a little sur
rising that Francis Ouimet, who
'.ayed so marvelously at Brookline,
NJ Jerome Travers. who won the ma
lonal title for the fourth time this
ear. was not selected by Vardon as
7a best golfer in America.
IT. Is true that in IA way my game

Yale Crews May Not

NEW HAVEN, CONN, Nov. 10-The
question OF whether or not Yale Uni

methods for its crews will be deter
mined within few days, when a for

tain Denegre.
Early in the fall announcement was
made that the English methods would

w ter League are likely to fea-
ture the American majors as
being entirely the whole cheese. and
the Nationals as the holes, it may be
just as well to dig around bit in
the ofing and try to discover if the
older league really is a dead one.
Four Worlds Series have gone to
the younger circuit in row. On the
face of it, that looks like marked su-
periority in that direction. 1t prob
ably does mean superiority.
But it is not time to begin count
ing ten on the National Lea%Le, and
following is the result Of a little re-
search to see flow the two leagues
are stacking up on the main depart
ments of the game.
1T may be as well to grant that the
American League has 1t in the
matter OF outfielders. The names of
Cobb, Speaker, Jackson and Milan are
all the argument needed.
Also, the American League has the
best pitcher in the world, w. john
son is his name, if 1t has to be men
toned
The American League gets these
points without e contest.
y IT here we come to something else
- and that is batting in which, with
he wallOps of Baker, Collins 81 Co.
still ringing in our ears, we are prone
to take 1t for granted the Johnson
circuit has the call--and loud one.
Not so. The National League has a
grand batting average Of .261, as
compared 20 .255 for the American.
Grand" does not mean gorgeous
here; II means the batting average Of
the whole league.
In fielding the National also leads
an average Of .961 to 1858, and It may
be worth noting that the number Of
infield assists by the National League
is well over that Of the American.
HAVING handed it duly to Cobb and
L the other outhelders, it is no more
than fair to slip 1t to Big Ed Ko-
netchy. king OF all first basemen, who
tied the major league record on that
job by fielding for an average Of .996
he record being established by Frank
Chance In 1910. MCInnis, who heads
he American League first sackers,
helded $50 and that's pretty good,
too, but not so good as Jake Daubert,
OF Brooklyn, so that the National has
two first basemen playing better than
the best in the rival league
a ND mere is something else.
- Notwithstanding Stuffy McIn-
mis-, Frank Baker Eddie Collins and
all the other powerful sWatters on
the Athletics, that team yields to a
National League team, the Philltes,
in extra base hitting. The long driv-
ing Of the Phillies was one Of the
features Of the season, they getting
70 home runs IS triples and enough
doubles to make their total extra
bases 632. The Cubs came next with
567.
That is quite a jolt.

Matlock Bath. where the search for the

From the London Chronicle.
Modern novelists find 1t difficult 70 find
titles for their books, but, characteristic
ally. Dickens could always hit on q score
or so of titles for his books. and found
difficulty only In the selection Of one from
among SO many. For "Bleak House."
for instance. he drew up list Of twelve
possible tities-incIuding 1.-THE Ruined
House." "Tom-ali-alone's. THE Solitary
House," 1.-THE East Wind" Bleak House
and the East Wind"-and submitted II to
Forster for selection. It Is worth noting
that in the end Dickens always chose the
most effective Of the titles he devised
Talking of titles for stories. how Is IL

modern authors and frowned upon by
publishers? Surely the name OF your
hero or heroine should be good enough
