WHO IS BEST AMATEUR
GOLFER Of THE YEAR?
Max Marston, New Jersey Champion,
Ranked With Leaders on
1915 Performance.

NEW YORK, December 4.-Who is
the best amateur golfer of the year,
Jerry Travers, who won the open.
BOO" Gardner, who won the amateur
championship. or Max Marston, who
won the most invitation tournaments
during the golfing season?
Marston, the New Jersey champion,
has earned an enviable place in golf
in the season just closed. When the
handicap committee decides on the
relative merits of the amateurs next
spring Marston will not be far from
the scratch mark. He won six i'm
portant tournaments in 1915, includ-
ing the championship of New Jersey
He was also runner-up at two other
big tournaments, and was semi final
ist in the amateur championship at
Detroit.
Long List of Victories.
His latest achievement was the WIN
ming of the Thanksgiving. tournament
at Lakewood. Only three weeks before
he triumphed at Atlantic City. Earlier
in the season Marston won at Garden
City, defeating w. J. Travis in the
final. He also won at Manchester, VT;
at Schenectady. n. Y, and at Essex
county, where he captured the New Jer-
sey state title. He was runner-up at
Buffalo and at Oakland, where he sus-
tanned his only bad defeat of the sea-
son at the hands of Phil Carter.
It was in the amateur championship
at Detroit that Marston probably made
his best showing. Having the cham
pionship almost in his grasp, he miss
ed a short eighteen-inch putt that
would have given him the match with
Gardner. and put him in the final. AS
it was Marston, by this slip, allowed
his opponent to win and square the
S6 hole match. Gardner won the next
hole
An Ideal Match Player.
Marston has proved himself an ideal
match player. He does not care about
breaking records in qualifying rounds,
being content to save his energy for
his opponents later on.
Phil Carter has been Marston's near
est riyal-in fact his only stumbling
block. Phil won two tournaments
Martson played in. The Metropolitan
will rate these boys no
worse than 2. In ranking the players
these two could not be denied places
at the top.

Defensively the Nationals are sure to
hold their own. Griffith not only has a
strong pitching staff, but two excellent
catchers in Williams and Henry, and a
high-class recruit in Charity. Judge
and Jamison are sure to add materially
to the teams batting and fielding. too,

plans to put in couple of weeks at
Hot Springs, Ark, before reporting,
and that is what he needs to be ready
when the bell taps.
If Griffith should fail to get the sea-
soned outfelder he hopes for, he will
have at least two recruits who may de-
velop into stars. Barber and Horace
Milan look like kids with bright fu-

need the seasoning Of another year in
the minors.
Unless the unexpected happens Grif-
nth will have one of the most fo-mi-

interesting feature of pitchers rec
ord. in the eyes of the patrons of base
ball, lies In the number of games he
wins and loses. 1t Is by this means
that the public judges a pitchers value
to his team.
The American League official records,
however. fail to show the number of
games that the pitchers win and lose
There Is no complaint about basing the
pitchers value, in an artistic way, on
the percentage of earned runs that they
may allow during a season, but there
Is no question that the public is most
interested in the results Of their bat

For instance, the fact that a pitcher

MIN an attraction. But let pitcher

crowds will flock to the ball parks on

broken.
In the National League records the
earned-run basis also is used, but the
victories and defeats, too, are record
