NEW GOLF RULES CRITICISED
Some Players Believe Much of the
Code Is Superfiuous.

Code Is Superfluous.
By this time the vast army Of golfers
throughout the country have had time
to digest the changes in the rules of
the game announced recently by the
United States Golf association and
now effective. Though there were
many changes, most of them had to do
largely with verbiage. Still change
in rules is rarely considered deeply by
golfers until actually tried out or
studied out after having been put In
concrete form. Thus it is that COM
ment on the changes is being heard at
this time
In some quarters one of the changes
has caused adverse criticism. This is
with regard to rule f. paragraph 2. Of
General and Through the Green" and
reads: a player is entitled at any time
during the play OF a hole to ascertain
from his opponent the number OF
strokes the latter has played. If the
opponent gives the wrong information
as to the number OF strokes he has
played he shall lose the hole unless
he corrects his mistake before the
player has played another stroke"
Such n regulation. it is argued. seems
neither necessary nor desirable A
mistake might be made quite innocent
~ and remedied afterward. but this
rule is declared to amount to an asper-
sion on the craftsmanship Of those in
the game. To the mind Of one golfer
It suggests a story OF two men who
We're having day OF the links Leav-
ing the first green. one asked, How
many strokes did you takeY' How
many did you take?- queried the other
oh" replied the first. 81 asked you
first"
Another player seems to think that
there are fast becoming too many rules
and that it would be desirable TO have
q briefer code. He adds: when a
golfer pauses to reflect on the matter
Of rules he realizes that for practically
everything n person is entitled to do
on a golf course there is some kind of
law laid down in black and white We
are told what we may do as we'll as
what we must do and what we must
not do. But how many golfers could
quote the actual rule governing every
shot they play? The rules are known
in the spirit. but not IN the letter
They have been acquired through the
medium OF that elemental instinct
which enables one to differentiate be
tween right and wrong. In these cir.
cumstanCes one would think that d
much shorter code would be sufficient
but the multiplicity OF rules appears
to be due to the great variety Of con
tingencies possible in the game which
cannot be classified either as right OF
wrong, but which come into the hall
way house category OF doubtful"

. HOW THORPE TRAINED FOR .
. THE BROAD JUMP.

Johnny Hayes, the winner OF
the Olympic Marathon race at
the London games in 1908. tells
an interesting story of the way
in which Jim Thorpe trained for
the broad jump during the Stock
holm meet. "One afternoon |
happened to be upstairs when
upon looking out the window I
saw Jim arise from his ham,
mock and walk to the sidewalk"
says Hayes. Il thought it was
strange, and | resolved to watch
it through. Soon | saw him mark
off about twenty-three feet, and
he chalked both corners of the
distance. l thought he was GO
ing to do some broad jumping.
To my surprise the big fellow
walked back 10 the hammock,
jumped into it and then riveted
his eyes on the two chalk marks
for some little TIME. Assured he
had worked hard enough for this
speciality, he rolled over and fell
; fast asleep. For all could learn,
that's all the training he did for
: the broad jump"

Washington, Nov. s.-A preliminary gun
in the antitrust campaign mapped out
for Congress next session was fired to-
day by Representative Henry. chairman
of the Rules Committee and author Of the
resolutions which brought an investiga-
tion of the money trust"
Mr.. Henry has prepared several amend
ments TO the Sherman law, which he will
introduce at an early date. One is de-
signed to vitiate the rule Of reason,
written into the Sherman law by the Su-
preme Court: another would provide for
the punishment of trust officials on the
theory that guilt is personal Still an
other Henry proposal is drastic regula-
tons forbidding interlocking directorates
among banks. railroads and large indus
trial corporations.
Congress should proceed to speedily re-
peal the judicial amendment which has
manned this important law" said Repre-
sentative Henry in pamphlet circulated
to-day. Adequate penalties should be
provided and the stigma of a felony
placed upon violators as first proposed by
Sherman, Reagan, George, Walthall, Vest
and others. The penitentiary should be
designated as the place of abode for a
term OF years. ranging from two TO ten.

majesty of this statute"
