CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF RECORDS
SHOW PROGRESS OF THE GAME.
Statistics of Scores Made in the National
Open Event for Fifteen Years Indicate
Standard of Play Has Improved.

In zeneralities which are not always
flittering we are wont to state our
opinions about the respective merits
Of the play by golfers of the past ana
present generation, writes John Ander-
son in the New York Sun. The intro
duction Of the rubber-cored ball, how
ever, has made comparisons, to all in
tents and purposes, of little value ex-
cept when concerned with the past
decade, or, it may be, the last fifteen
wears. Few or no statistics have been
published on which to base a sound
judgment; yet I believe through the
medium of such compilations. when
carefully done, estimates approaching
the truth of the matter may be made.
In this connection a wonderful ad-
vance has been made by Max H. Behr,
former New Jersey champion and ma
tional runner up, and editor OF COLI IL
lustrated and Outdoor America. He has
compiled what seems to me most val
liable data dealing with the statistics
of the open championship play since
the introduction of the rubber-cored
ball, stating the scores of the hrst
five players in the national open In the
last fourteen years. as well as the
scores which these men made in other
years The total number of rounds
which they played in Championships is
given and the grand total of strokes.
With the average per round. Thirty
nine golfers are in the honored list
and their average ranges Il have IN
cluded this years championship hg-
ures) from the 74.75 of Charles Friars
to the S23 of Isaac Mackie.
The number of rounds. of course.
makes a difference. for at more than
one of these championships the wealth
er has caused the scores to mount. For
Instance, Mackie has played forty
rounds, while Evans has played but
eight. If we divide the players into
eroups according to the number of
POUNDS which have been played we find
that the grand average and relative
standing Of those who have taken part
in championships and played at least
twenty rounds are as follows:

While these figures are interesting
they do not always tell the play of the
different golfers as they have shown in
the championships Of the past few
wears. for in some cases since the quail
ifying rounds have been a necessity the
well known golfers who have finished
high up some years have failed to
qualify. and their scores. which should
be rightly counted in this list as CIV
ing a sample of their form at the time
of the open event, do not get into the
averaging. Alex Ross and G. Nichols,
for instance, have a fairly low aver
age, but they have failed to get into
the chosen sixty-four on one or two
occasions, which should be taken into
account when studying these statistics.
The same is true of others. but in the
vast majority of cases the figures as
given are good indications of the play
consistency Of the various well known
professionals; and better idea can be
formed of their relative standing in
the country by perusal of this table
than in any other way.
It surely would be Of interest to many
golfers, before commenting bit on
the tale which the statistics tell, to
refer once more to some of the figures
which Max Behr has CLEANED from the
records. Alec Campbell and Jack Ho-

George Stovall was quoted in Cleveland
as saving that he would not consider a
proposition to manage the Indians at this
time, but that he looked for peace" in
base ball after this season and that he
might then be open to consider an offer
from President Somers. Stovall spent a
whole day in conference with Somers and
was his guest in a box at the ball game,
