LIPPITT'S SIMPLIFIED GOLF

Among the United States senators
who play golf, Henry F. Lippitt stands
alone, for he has reduced the game
to its lowest mechanical terms and
plays it on a simplified basis that is
unequaled, at least in Washington. His
theory is that for a nonprofessional
golfer each club used adds just that
much to the complications. He says 1t
is a needless mental strain to have to
rummage through an outfit of dozen
clubs, trying to select the one that
applies to the situation at hand. IL
he has to carry pair OF calipers and
a transit and a couple of assistants to
determine ak what angle he should
swat dinky little gutta percha ball,
he would just as soon give up golf and
play parchesi or dominoes. So Lippitt
carries only three plain little clubs. He
owns no caddy bag and carries his
sticks himself, and all his caddy has
to do is to trot blithely along, point
ing out the quarry, like hunting dog.

in Mexico the pursuit of Villa may be
seriously retarded. 1t was explained
at department headquarters that the
lengthening lines of communication
along heavy trails had made it practi-
cally impossible to deliver supplies by
auto trucks and that already serious
shortage of grain for horses and mules
had been experienced.
Americans Prove Superiors.
Horses, mules and automobiles have
done the work and success this far has
been attained by the ability OF the
American cavalry 10 travel fast and
far on light rations. Several cavalry
organizations have been out for more
than week on little beef, salt, cof
fee and rice or beans. Not word
of complaint has come back from these
troopers. Reports here give good
cause for belief that thus far the
American troopers have proven them
selves the superors in speed and en-
durance over the Villa bandits.
Bandits to Resist Americans.
Evidence that Francisco Villa is
preparing to resist the American pur-
suing columns and that the Mexican
people are not as yet rallying to him
has been collected by the officers and
the scouts Of the American troops.
Flying columns of American cavalry
are seeking to entrap Pancho Villa
