played in a driving rain. Tho greens
were covered with pools Of water and
the fairways were SO soft that 1t was
hard to get any distance. Before the
afternoon round was started the sun
came out and quickly dried the course.
Smiths morning round Of seventy
two was most remarkable. considering
the condition of the course. He was
driving right down the center and
sinking every putt under ten feet.
Brand was only two strokes behind the
leader at the end Of the first eighteen
holes. but fell down badly in the after
noon, taking eighty-three.
Howard W. Perrin Of the Merton
Cricket Club, led the amateurs with
1874. His score was exceptionally good.
as he had not played on the Oakmont
course for two years. and had never
seen the many new traps and bunkers.

Base Ball Commission Arrange City Championship Series
GOLFING HINTS.
BY "STRAIGHT DRIVE"

Shoes-Foot comfort plays such
an important part in the game of
golf that it is well for the novice
to realize that it will be far more
practical for him to have hobnails
driven into the soles Of a comfort
able pair of old shoes than to
spend good money for some Of the
many so-called golf shoes sold at
the shops.
A pair of old shoes which have
been well broken in. resoled SO as
to give a solid body into which to
drive the hobs or spikes, and per-
haps treated with one of the many
waterproofing preparations. will be
very efficient.
While low shoes are cool and
comfortable. and are preferred by
many, 1 believe that boots are the
more rational protection for the
feet. Boots support and protect the
ankles. For a long double round Of
the links the average man will be
less tired and foot weary as a rule
II he wears boots instead of low
shoes.
