the drawing card and that | would be

When | signed up with Nolan he
told me that he would be in a posi-
ton to get me big guarantees and
look after my interests. But later or

say that the promoters were after me
and that | could do business with
them very nicely without Nolan's aid,
which was costing me % per cent of
my earnings.
At last ! made UP my mind, and
informed Nolan that | intended to cali
it quits with him. He stormed and
ragged and accused me of being an in
crate, but 1t made no difference with
me. We came down from the ranch
together, and he vainly argued with
me TO change my mind. This, how
ever, | refused to do, for l felt that !

We parted company when we hit
San Francisco. ! left Nolan without
bearing any bitter feeling against
him, and I hope that he feels the
same way toward me. ! know that
he was very sore at me then. for the
job meant a lot of money to him.
But he did not make good with me,
and | figured that | saved just that
much when | decided to let him 60.
Anyhow, Nolan received his - per
cent out of my end for the Rivers
match. l agreed TO give him this
when the split-up came. | do not
think that he earned the money, for
| know that l could have gotten Just
as much if had done all the business
myself. But l have been criticised

principle that is more Important
When a player with two good shots

Guiding one OF the two, surely undue
emphasis appears to be laid upon one
stroke
1t is not as if putting was par
ticularly skilled shot. for it is the one
stroke in which the beginner fire.
quently eXcels the expert and it is
impossible to imagine the beginner
excelllng in any other stroke. The
tennis champion. the football star and
baseball expert rush into golf and
turn back discouraged before the diff
ficulty of the various strokes, but lit
tie children and beginners frequently
putt better than seasoned players. All
that any of these natural players APP
parently need TO attain cham ionship
honors is to patch up his long game

expert opponent and then halve or win
the hole on the green.

his opponent tops his drive, gets out
Of the rough on his second, puts his
third on the edge OF the green, and

streak of good putting after getting
there. In fact, a great deal of last
summers golf was strangely remi-
niscent of croquet on a tiny lawn.
Truly, there would be very little to

UP as easily as putting, and yet II the
really expert golfer analyZes his
strokes he viii frequently find that
the number Of his puts aggregate all
his drives, his brassies. his Cleeks,

inequality in reward has led many
golfers to suggest that the cup he en-

Probably we have all thought OF that

the putting green, the uncertainty
that frequently equnlizes duh and ex-

much to do with the charm of golf.
THEREFORE,, we hesitate at the

extent Of quarter inch. After all,
golf is a royal and ancient game and
