MarStOn and Kirkby on
Edge for Golf Battle

dealing with my proposal for a Fed
Grated Cor Association OF the World,
and YOU also mention the reports OF
the attempt TO form an association an
taronistic 20 the United States Coli
Association should like TO refer 20
your remarks that my idea rs founded
more or less directly 'on the rock o.
antagonism TO the United States COR
Association. which has held sway over
golfng matters IN this country ever
since the inception Of the game IN the
United States
"ln my case. so far is this from being
the fact. that I look upon the r eG
Grated Golf Association Of the Norlo
as probably the best means for the
United States Golf Association to re-
tain It's position. There is no doubt
whatever that II is faced with serious
problem. and IL looks very much as
though there Will be a split IN the
ranks OF the golfers unless some steps
ere taken 10 prevent H. The govern
ncnt Of golf in England is. Of course
a Joke. for 10 is quite unconstitutional
and the club on whose rulings II IS
founded. the ROYAL and Ancient con
Club of St Andrews. has no authority
whatever beyond It's own links. J think
the time has come for the golfers OF
tbo world 10 inject little business
into the management OF the game. so
that golf may be golf wherever 1t is
plaved. even as tennis IS tennis.
at would indeed be a pity " the
splendid work done by the United
states Golf Association in the past
should be nullifed in any way. II
there is to be any alteration in the gov
eminent Of golf, | should wish to see
II by an extension Of the powers and
scope # the United States Golf Asso-
citation rather than by curtailng them
or bv opposition TO them. One does not
expect such big idea as the Fedora
ted Golf Association Of the World to
be carried into effect in very short
space of time. but there is reason TO
believe that in due course the amateur
championship Of the world Will be
recognized event. and | see no reason
whatever why such title should be
confined to golf. An annual event OF
this nature in various sports would be
Of more value than the Olympic meet
ings.
Very sincerely yours,
"P. A. VALE"
To our way Of thinking, the man who
chastises his son. at the same time
the unfortunate by telling
him it is being done for his own good,

BY GRANTLAND RICE.

Who are the longest hitters. with
various clubs, in the amateur golf OF
the United States? This query has
been advanced on numerous occasions,
and while there are no Official records
20 bear out any testimony, at least
opinions are In order
We have never seen Henry Davis, the
long-hitting Californian, pioy. but
among the others we have no particular
hesitancy in ranking the two driving
leaders In this order:
/. Jesse Guilford. late Of New
Hampshire. but now OF Boston.
. Robert A. Gardner. Of Chicago.
Guilford, with the wood, mas even a
shade on the hard smashing Westerner.
We have seen him carry 300 yards as
unbelievable as IL may sound. whereas
. ball player who can wallop baseball
beyond l40 yards on a fy hes turned
out a marvellous achievement.
Gardner is a mighty hitter. bat Re
doesn't take the deep, full sweep with
his driver that Guilford uses. and so
isn't able 20 reach quite the latter's
best distances. although Gardner over
the rain -dampened course at Detroit
was driving steadily from 25O 20 2oO
yards.
Back OF these Two there Is very h'tle
difference TO be found IN the way OF
consistent length among Frames Oui,

Max Marston. These four range well
together and we are counting here

Fast Running Water Makes
So-Called Ten-Mile
Race Deceptive.

Long distance swimmers throughout
the country are again clamoring for a
championship test. As matters stand,
the only title event sanctioned by the
them is the so-called national ten-mile
race, an actual swim of little more
than three miles, owing 10 its being
held in fast running water. This
championship is considered totally in
adequate by opponents of aquatic en-
durance. for two reasons: First, be-
cause il is, in their opinion. too short
trial of speed rather than of STAN
ina; second. because it is a St. Louis
fixture. giving candidates Of distant
sections no chance 20 compete. except
az the cost of both time and money.
What they believe they are fairly en-
titled TO Is real long distance event
over a course which will take five or
more hours 10 cover. and not confined
10 any one locality. but held on success
sive years in different districts, so that
the expense of attending will not fall
everlastingly on the same clubs or indi-
viduals.
Judging from the brilliant success OF
The Tribune Marathon Of 1914, from
the Battery TO Sandy Hook. such cen
test would prove one Of the best and
most popular features of the outdoor
season. IL seems worth little thought
on the part Of the authorities.
The opening water carnival for WON
en- swimmers, held last Monday at At
lsntic City, furnished most interesting
evidence Of the amazing progress being
made BY the youngest of our mermsids.

One morning as he stepped off the
elevator on the dining room floor, Wag
gener saw Weilep place his hat on the
rack near the dining room door and go

quietly, picked up Weilep's hat and took
it up to his own rooms, within which
he had never been able to induce Weilep
to set foot, and came back down into
the lobby and told several members of
the legislature what he had done and
what he proposed to do.
When Weilep finished his breakfast
and came out of the dining room, he
was of course unable to find his hat
He enlisted the help of a couple of bell
boys in searching for it, the meanwhile
complaining bitterly. Waggener let the
search proceed for perhaps five minutes
and then said casually, Whats the mat

Waggener stepped up close to him
and said in an under tone: You left

Reluctant and protesting and denounc-

enough, there was his hat on the table
just where Waggener had said he had
left it. Weilep grabbed the hat and al
