A Study in Long Hitting

The recent golf hitting exhibition given
by Ouimet, Guilford and Marston in De-
troit was an eye-opener TO large num-
her of fanatics who had never seen a
golf game and who believed that Ty and

ing any sort of ball. In baseball 40
Yards is a smash well beyond the aver
age-good for the circuit at any given
moment.
Yet the ball Guilford hit would have
travelled i'm the open well over 800 yards
more than twice the distance attained
with the bat.
