Graw become that he gave strict orders
against playing the Scottish game. and
threatened to fine heavily any player
found guilty. Many other managers be-
lieve that playing golf weakens the bat
ting eye and spoils the players batting
form. Some players have admitted
this.
Come right down to it, though, give
heed to the case of Joe Jackson of Cleve-
deadlier than golf-something that runs
on four rubber-tired wheels and has
given Detroit the reputation Of being the

Jackson's love for his auto is blamed for
his inability to hit 400 this year.
When Jackson started driving his auto
mobile he was batting .413 and stood
good chance of beating Tyrus Cobb for
the swat honors of the American League.
Then came a slump in Jackson's average
and he closed the season batting 80,
loss of 40 points of batting value.
Jackson is not the only player who
found autoing very injurious to good bat
ting. Cobb himself has blamed several
batting slumps OH auto driving, and al
ways showed judgment enough to lay
off, when driving interfered with hitting.
Cobb explains that the eyes become
