GOLF GOSPEL TRUTHS.
Cut Prices and the Professional in
Business.
BY STRAIGHT DRIVE.

There is national interest in the
price reductions announced in several
lines Of standard golf balls. and the
still greater cuts in the future. The
cause given to warrant the manufac-
turers in fixing lower prices is that
they will no longer have to pay GER
tain royalties, which had been collect
ed by the parties who claimed priority
of invention" on the rubber-cored ball.
This claim was never accorded to the
American inventors of the rubber-cored
ball in Great Britain The claim has
always been allowed in this country,
my mind as to the exact legal status
Of the agreement under which these
royalties have been collected. Shortly
after Travis success in the amateur
championship at Atlantic City in 1900,
which was really what started the rub
ber-cored ball on it's triumphant ca
reer, the ball makers on every side be-
gan to turn out lively golf balls with
out paying any ROYALTIES on the idea:
The Haskell ball consisted of a solid
rubber core, tightly wound with a
thread of rubber until it was the size
desired, after which a guttapercha shell
was put on as covering. The rival
firms began turning out a ball different
only in minor details; for instance. one
wound the core with a band of rubber
instead of thread. Other dealers made
a ball with a marble or a pebble in the
center instead of a piece of solid rub
Der. and. by reason of the inferior ma
terials used. were able to undersell the
Haskell and other high-claSs balls.
Finally, the Haskell folks served in
functions on all the firms making live
ly golf balls. an action which promptly
put all but the few large rivals out of
business. In due time the case came
up for trial in a United States court at
New York. 1t was tried before a jury,
and after some days had been occupied
in taking testimony to demonstrate
there could be no priority of inven-
ton" on any ball with lively core and
an outer shell Or covering. the case was
adjourned. Next came the announce
ment that all the firms concerned had
admitted the claims of the Haskells
and had, agreed to pay royalty to
them on all rubber-cored balls in the
future.
As consequence, it would seem that
the Haskells never gained a clear title
for their invention by a judicial deci-
sion. However things turn out. it is
good to know that the margin of prof
its to the professional golfers is not to
be reduced. The keeper of the golf
supply shop works on a very scant
margin of profit and bad debts are an
other cause of a frequent loss in the
business.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-03-02

not being held in high esteem by the
other major league clubs is not known,
but the fact remains that these play
ers are in bad repute with the club,
and it would not be at all surprising
II the entire quartet were let out.
Nothing has been heard from Joe
wood since he received contract
which gave him a cut of $500, being
not communicated with President Lam
nan nor Manager Carrigan, but has
made 1t known that he has no inten-
ton of accepting the cut in pay that
the club has tried to infict.
Some few years ago Connie Mack
made the statement that the teams of
Washington and st. Louis were handi-
capped by the hot weather in these
cities Fielder Jones, however, will
not listen to any alibis from his play
ers this year when they complain
about the climate. He contends that
the players are better off in a real hot
climate than in a changeable one. pro-
vlded they take good care of them
selves and find cool place to sleep.
Jones team came very near winning
the Federal League pennant last sea-
son, and he did not think the climate
was handicap to his athletes. Here
is what Jones has to say on the sub
tect:
Give me the players who have the
heart to get out there and play every
day and I'll win a pennant on the Sa-
hara desert. I'll say I will. Some ba Sc
hits from the other fellows and some
shut-out pitching, along with some err
rors on our side, will beat us this sum-
mer at Sportsmans Park, but the first
fellow who comes to ME with an ex-
cuse that it's hot will sit on the bench
for week, and he won't draw any pay,
either"
cy Young will have a protege with
the pitching staff of the Cincinnati
team the coming season. His name is
Staley Dougan Dougan was coached
by Old Cy before making his profess
sional career, which he started in the
Northern League. AS a pitcher for Win
nipeg he won twenty-five games. two
of which were no-hit affairs, and he
was charged with only four defeats. He
is right-hander and stands six feet
one inch high.
This youngster undoubtedly gives
great promise and should prove re-
liable running mate for Fred Toney,
who was one of the best pitchers in the
National League last season.
