SOME SHOTS OFF
THE FIRST TEE

Philip Carter. of Shinnecock, Nassau.
BridgehaIppton. ct al, left town yes
terday for Pinehurst, with view 70
taking part in the North and South
championship, beginning Mondsy.
Young Carter has been fairly sue
eessful this winter and has changed
his style trifle. His stance is now
strsighter with the line Of play than
formerly. He is getting more distance
and better direction.
K. c. Watson. erstwhile chief exeeu-
tive of the United States Golf Asso-
citation, once saw Carter at his old
tricks, and took the boy to task about
IT, Evidently the youth has profited at
Bridgehamlton.
Brooklyn will not be far behind Man
haitian and The Bronx as far as the
condition of the public links at Forest
Park is concerned There have been
many char ges made lately. and the end
is not yet. Evidently T. w. Whittle,
The Bronx Park Commissioner, has set
a fine example.
So pleased are the officials OF the
new Quaker Ridge Country Club with
the progress being made on the new
course in Westchester County that the
president, W. John Baird. will head a
delegation there OH Tuesday TO inspect
the work.
Some criticism has been made Of the
idea to build new first hole AT Van
Cortlandt Park. and combine the third
and fourth into a new fourth. The
principal objection is that the new
hole will not have room enough. II
has been suggested that a professional
tournament be held some time in May
and a canvass made among the salaried
men 20 obtain a consensus Of opinion.
Undor rbtedly more professional tour
naments are needed and deserve en-
couragement, and conditions al Van
Cortlsndt ought to be good enough for
any tournament. The question arises.
however, as to who would put up the
money" II the pros" are to be at
traeted something along this line must
be done. These men are not in busl-
ness for their health.
Although one swallow does not make
a summer, two signs as to the nearness
Of the 1918 competitive season were
noticed yesterday. The first is that
sporting goods stores have all the
orders they can FIJI for the time. and
it is figured that the real rush is 70
come. In the second place. profes-
sionals employed in some of the local
indoor schools are so busy giving les
sons they scarcely have time to get
luncheon. What is more significant
is the fact that the majority of pupils
are beginners.

Stands Toe to Toe with
SpengIer in Bout That
Goes an Extra Round.

Standing toe 20 toe IN the centre Of
the ring, and punching until they could
10 longer swing their arms, Arthur
Sheridan. of the Trinity Club, defeated
Billy Spengler. OF the Union Settlement
i C.. in an extra round of the finals
OF the l75-pound class for the metro
politan A. 4. L. boxing championships,
held last night at the New York Atm
lctic Club.
1t was the most exciting bout, IN the
opInion of the club men. that they had
ever seen. even in the professional ring,
and as the meT staggered from the
arena they were cheered TO the ccho.
Spengler, the metropolitan heavyweight
Champion. vas expected 20 DUPONT
sheridan. who holds the national utle
Va the l75-pound class.
In the first two rounds Spengier had
the better Of the bout. connecting often
with stiff left arm TO Sherdan's !
face. lie looked winner az he went 10
his corner. In the third round, how
ever. Sheridan came forth prepared to
make a stirring finish, and he did.
Going into close quarters az once, he
h mmered Spengler with terrific rights
and lefts to the jaw. The heavyweight
champion was willing 20 exchange, anc
the TWO men worked their arms ike
clubs unit! both were covered with
blood and reeling on their feet. Sheri-
dan was the sturdier and kept sending
his right hook TO Spengler's sore face
until the latter could hardly keep mis-
feet.
The house was in an uproar when
the bell sounded and the Judges dis
agreed as to the winner, SO the referee
Ny,-, ,tt,ss n
sheridan left his corner with a rush
and Spengler met him in mid-ring, and
they went at each other like tigers.
In the last half minute Spengler was
80 weary ne could only grope bllndly
about the ring. and Sheridan was little
better. He managed 70 stick 1t OUT
however, and landed the heavier oiows'
and the decision in his favor was
greeted with great applause.
All the other bouts furnished action
in huge quantities, and the boys boxed
a though they were out for the world 5
championship honOrs in each class.
One Of the bouts that met with great
favor was the final for the lOe-pound
title between Matty Herbert, OF the
Union Settlement A. C., and Sam BAL
lett. of the Ninety-second Street ! NJ.
II A. Herbert, a clever little fellow
with the gloves. earned the judges de-
