Under Cloak Does Not Meet
With Favor.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Early returns in
the poll which is being conducted by the
United States Golf Association in order to
ascertain the sentiment regarding more
strict definition of an amateur indicate
decided preference for change.
Robert c. Watson. president of the ma
tional body, gave out figures last night
showing that of forty-4ive clubs return
proposed restrictions.
OF course. forty five clubs is a small
proportion of the 358 active and allied
members of the United States Golf AS
sociation. SO it may be that the vote
will change as the returns continue to
come in. Among those who already have
gone on record, however. are some of
the most prominent in the country.
In the list Of clubs returning opinions
there is no indication as to which clubs
favored. or opposed the change. Mr..
Watson's announcement is as follows:

GOLFING HINTS.
BY "STRAIGHT DRIyE.r

SORE HANDS - Regardless of
care every golfer from time to
time suffers from sore or tender
spots on the hands or fingers,
which bother him in his game.
Gloves are used by some players
without serious Inconvenience. but
there are others who cannot use
them.
1t is a good idea always to carry
a small roll of one-inch-wide sur
geons' adhesive plaster In the
pocket of the bag. In case of a
blister, cut or other trifiing all
ment, it Is an easy matter to wind
a full wrapping or two OF the
plaster on the sore spot, when it
will be found that you can play
without inconvenience.
In case Of a cut 1t is we'll to put
a bit of gauze or clean linen over
the cut before applying the ad-
hesive plaster. SO as to prevent
the necessity of tearing open the
wound in removing the plaster.
A bit of the plaster over a blis-
ter on the foot may sometimes
enable you to complete a round
with greater comfort.

place.
For the first time in some days Gandil

The Nationals chances will be material
