Metropolitan Title Holder
Never Takes 1t Easy
on the Links.
By GRANTLAND RICE.

A day or two ago we had the keen
pleasure of playing a round of golf
with Walter J. Travis over his native
golfng heath at Garden City. II was
not only a pleasure jaunt, but a most
instructive one, for of all who have
played golf, in any land, there has been
no keener student of Scotia's gripping
recreation than the Grand Old Man of
the American regime.
This round, in way, was merely a
friendly, easy going. four-ball match.
There was but one ball at stake, and no
extremely keen competition. And yet
from the beginning TO the end OF IL
Mr.. Travis played golf. He played, in
many ways, much the same sort of golf
that he would play in a championship.
Which is TO say that he never took his
mind off the game from the first tee to
the eighteenth-he played no careless,
Indifferent shot at any stage; he
studied each shot twice before making
it where any unusual angle arose, and
he kept his concentration practically
intact.
This, to our mind, is one of the an
swers 10 his very brilliant career. Even
in practice, friendly rounds, he makes a
point, and has always made a point, of
developing the proper habit. By never
permitting himself TO fall into careless,
slipshOd ways and methods, as most of
US do in friendly rounds, he has never
had TO resdjust his game when under
the stress OF competition. By concen-
trating in practice there Is no extra
effort required TO obtain concentration
under fire.
Golf is largely a matter of habit.
And habit here is easily fixed. A few
slight faults, uncorrected, soon settle
into habits that are extremely hard TO
break. But the golfer who makes
study Of the essentials of form, and
watches these essentials carefully, can
put his game upon a sound basis. Only,
there are very few who do--and OF
these few Mr.. Travis is the leader.
Each shot holds a keen interest for
him. He makes IL q point TO play IL "a
nearly right as he knows how. In even
his friendly game there are no half
hearted jabs, no careless, indifferent
poxes, no signs OF peevishness devel-
oped by some unlucky break. Golf to
him is a game worth any ones keenest
attention and most careful study. And
that is the way he has played golf for
q matter Of seventeen or eighteen years.
While efficient from the tee and
through the fairway, II is upon the
putting green that the metropolitan
champion rises TO his greatest heights.
This doesn't mean that he wins through
his putting alone. For he doesn't.
There is probably no one in the game
any straighter. consistently from the
tee, or any surer on an approach. so
far as judgment and direction are con-
cerned.
But. after all. il is as putter that
he is so far above normal. The list OF
good players with the wood is fairly
large. There are not so many who
can use their irons well. But there
are still fewer who In tournament play
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-06-28

had accepted the invitation TO row in
TO be held on Lake Washington on
July l6, the committee deemed it the
best policy 10 cancel the contest, and
sent It's regrets TO the Quakers. Il is
probable that this will mark the end Of
regattas in the West so far as Eastern
crews are concerned. The Quakers
were much incersed.
Crowds Begin to Arrive.
As usual, Poughkeepsie is taking its
time about filling up. The advance
guard of the big crowd that is expected
on the morrow has begun to arrive by
boat, train and automobile, but there
is no lack of accommodation and no
one is forced to sleep IN the parks.
The two hostelries of the town. the
Morgan and Nelson houses, are COM
fortably filled. There is the usual
gathering Of experts and nearexperts,
and, most important Of all, Nose, the
Cornell barber, and Bill Kemp, Co.
lumbia's perpetual student, are on
hand. Without them they couldn't hold
q regatta here.
Observation train tickets are run
ming true to form. 1t takes as much
as So TO catch up with one, and If you
want a pair you have to pay anywhere
from S16 TO S25 unless you care to take
them in separate cars. Dwellers in
Poughkeepsic, for the first time in
years, are making no plant about not
being able TO get accommodations on
the train, because one of the more
enterprising Of the townsfolk has dis
covered an underground route by which
spy purnher can he obtained at stand
ard rates. Thus the usual scandal has
been averted, and Poughkeepsie will
not turn a cold shoulder to the re-
gatta any more.
A feet Of revenue cutters and tugs
came up the river late in the after
noon ready for the all important task
OF policing the course. There are few
yachts at anchor, however, save that of
Colonel Robert N. Thompson, of New
York; who arrived late last night aboard
the Everglades.

COLLEGE TITLE
RESTS BETWEEN
THREE TEAMS
Harvard, Brown and Tufts
Seem Well Matched
on the Diamond.

Amherst brings the college baseball
season of 1915 to an end to-day, but for
all practical purposes it closed on Sat
urday, with Harvard, Brown and Tufts
all having strong claims for the cham
pionship.
Harvard has won more games than
either Of the other two, and Tufts has
lost fewer. Brown broke even with
Harvard, and Tufts broke even with
Brown, so that the three seem to be
well matched.
OF this trio Tufts is the heaviest hit
ting nine, with a team average close TO
the 800 mark. Brown batted over $50
for the season, and Harvard braced at
the end and has an average Of .236 for
all games excepting the one with Yale
on Saturday.

ANDERSON SETS
PACE ON COURTS
Wins First Match and Gets
Start on Second in Kings
County Tourney.

Frederick G.. Anderson, playing
through champion, won his first match
and the first set of his second match
against w. halsey Wood in the third
rouri before rain stopped proceedings
temporarily yesterday in the lawn ten
mis- tournament of the Kings County
Tennis Club tor the championship Of
Long Island.
The tall veteran found the clay courts
TO his liking ana granted short shrift
to W. Gallant, his first opponent, de-
feat,ng him at 6-1, 6-l. Anderson
drove with great severity to the back
court and, having opened the way for
an All ck at the net, finished his points
with we'll directed smashes.
Wood did not seem able to stop the
winning streak of the champion, al
though he offere1 more resistance than
Gallant; but Anderson took the first
set CT 6-3 and apparently had the
match we'll in hand when play stopped.
Charles Chambers defeated R. Gold
man ct 60, 60. Others who won in
the second round were T. j. Mckee, who
defeated D. Stewart at 81, 80; G. A.

Through Championship Play.

The metropolitan champion admitted
in this round that he had played his
final championship. He doesn't expect
10 enter at Detroit, as he figures he is
not able TO stand the grind Of six
day battle, where for the first three
days he might be at his best, only to
be too far below form at the finish 20
give a worthy exhibition. II isn't any
matter Of fear Of defeat, but rather
that he considers ii unfair to the field
where at the start he might put out a
strong contender, some one with good
chance to win. ard then at the finish
be comparatively easy. prey, for some
one not nearly SO good as the man he
had beaten.
But he will still 90 on playing golf.
and in any three-day tournament will
still be a big factor for many seasons.
For he is still as keen as ever over
the game. and, il anything. as he says,
possibly jus. a little bit keensr all
the time"

Travis Always Plays
a Championship Game

can putt steadily and consistently and
at times brilliantly-but always well.
In gripping his putter Mr.. Travis
has adopted a style of his own, differ
ent from that of most others. Since
the right hand in putting Is supposed
to do most of the work, his right hand
has a full grip of the club, with the
left hand, or the first two fingers of
the left hand, over the right. The
putter is held well above the lower
border of the grip, but in the matter
Of stance he admits that he may
change the position of his feet to an
extent at Various times. In fact, he
has at least three different stances.
with feet close together, not so close
together and still wider apart-all de-
pending on his mood. He has been
putting this spring with his feet wider
apart than usual-much wider, for in
stance than Jerry Travers, who stands
more erect, with his heels almost
touching, or with only a few inches
between.
There were two main facts about his
putting that were more impressive.
One was that upon every putt hit his
eye was on the ball, and il was only
after the ball had travelled several
feet that his head moved in the slight
est. The other was that almost with
out exception II his putt missed the
cup-which wasn't any too often
the ball went on beyond the hole.
There are many golfers who make up
their minds at every start to always
give the ball a chance. But once they
run we'll past the cup their next at
tempt is almost.sure to be timid-with
a resultant shot that is we'll short.
Running on by the cup has no ter
rors for the veteran. He figures In
this case that he has erred on the
right side and so no timidty creeps
in. Not through any one or two at
tempts-or through any half dozen
but day in and day out he strikes each
putt TO get we'll up until he has long
since developed the habit of giving
the ball a chance. And, as suggested,
habit is the controlling factor in golf.
II is impossible to say how many mill
ion puts made at odd times would
have gone down II only propelled few
inches or foot or two feet further on.
But not many of these belong to him.

Ward and Rosenbaum began their
match yesterday at the point where
they left off Saturday, with Ward lead
ing at 6-3 and "a on games in the
second set. Rosenbaum tried vallsntiy
to wrest victory from defeat, and made
Ward travel at his fastest pace before
succumbing to the latter's superior
speed and severer stroking.
The driving duels from back court
left little to choose between the two
men, but Ward was more accurate at
placing the ball in the openings, and
he edged many a slashing cross-court
shot past DR.. Rosenbaum as the latter
strove to cut them off.
The mixed doubles match brought
out some pretty net play, with Stein
kampf and Ostendorf scoring kills" by
vigorous smashing. Miss Wagner
proved the deciding factor, however.

Miss Grove, from back court, although
at the net the two women were about
