SUGGESTIONS IN GOLF
By Gardiner w. White.
The Cleek.

The, cleek. as we all know, is at the
head of the list Of iron clubs, that is,
so far as distance is concerned, The
cleek. indeed, becomes more and more
useful as the player advances in skill.
A great number of people complain
hat 1t Is impossible for them to en-
ploy the cleek with any sort of sue
cess. After a person has played golf
for a certain length of time he is in
slined to discard the cleek. thinking
ne cannot Improve with it, and that
he doesn't really need a cleek any,
how.
Notwithstanding the fact that a
great many of the well-known pro-
fessional n amateur players never
use a cleek, 1 think a beginner should
by all means stick to his cleek. The
reason that a great many of the ex-
perts have no use for the cleek is that
they use a driving iron or a spoon for
the same distance for which the cleek
is used. The driving iron has a little
wider face, Is not quite SO long as a
cleek. n a be used through the
fair green and also off the tee when
a driver is not needed. The spoon is
but is- used for the experts very often
because they would rather play a
wooden club than an iron. H. H.
Hilton is a great player with a spoon.
But remember that q cleek will get a
bali out of5a bad lie better than either
9 spoon or a driving iron, and that is
where the novice would be lost II he
didn't have a cleek in his bag.
When one gets command Of the
cleek he can congratulate himself on
getting command Of n of the most
difficult clubs in the bag. I think the
most common fault one has in select

the interests of America and Japan
on the Pacific would ultimately re-
suit in a conflict. The people them

Most of the radical meetings at
which the possibility Of war is dis

this point of view for the reason that
nothing is done in Japan in the way

that II was the mother of eight chill
