This ODowd per-
son--for it is he and none other--has made
quite record In the West and is regarded
as a wonderful knockout artist. He is
said to have fattened many aspiring box
ers In his short career and left a trail of
busted regulations behind him.
But Michael has not always been n
boxer. He took up this ladyllke sport
after serving his time on the football field
In st. Paul. when he played quarterback
on college team. o'Dowd was an excel
lent player and had just learned to punch
with both hands when the other colleges
held a meeting and decided that he was
too rough to mingle with the studious ath-
letes. Since that time Mike has been
making good use of his college education,
and won his K. o, degree without taking a
postgraduate course.
In Young Erne, Mr.. O'Dowd will meet
a very tough battler and the bout should
be quite interesting. 1t will give us a
line on this college person--if the press

welterweight title OF these United States

sorts of legal knowledge and now is in

Mr.. Taylor knitted his bTows, paced the
floor and spoke as follows

A Few WherefOres

We saw Chick Evans play a good many
years ago, when he first began to attract
national notice. In those days the putting
greens of the West were fairly heavy and
slow In comparison with the faster,
smoother green's OF the East.
And in those days, under such condl-
tions, Evans began to use midiron rather
than putter for the delicate process of
getting the ball close or into the cup.
Chick was putting with a midiron the
first time we ever saw him play, and he
was laying his long approach puts close
enough to get down steadily in two to the
green. The long mldiron approach putt
was almost chip shot and the shorter
putt to the hole was a half-topped affair
that held the line.
The Jolt
Then/in 1910 Chick. playing wonderful
golf. came East to Brookline. At the
start he was moving like a whirlwind
He was travelling fast enough to beat
Fred Herreshoff, IL and 10.
He finally came to the semfinals with
Bill Fownes. always a grand putter
Evans had Fownes all but out. Chick
was up and to play. His pitch to the
10th landed on the green, while Fownes'
was off. The match looked to be over
But Fownes holed a long putt for g.
Chick took three puts and the tide
luTHeu' bdu pultlilB Cost ENdiS lne last
two holes and the championship. He dis
covered right at that spot that mid
iron was not the proper putter for a fast
rolling green. He lost confidence In his
putting, and when he went to the regu-
lation putter he went to a new style of
putting, and he went without confidence.
Shattered Confidence
1t was this shattered confidence in his
ability to putt that caused the bulk OF
Chicks trouble on the green. He changed
putters frequently, and he changed putting
styles. He tried the upright stapce and
the crouch, the low grip and the high
grip, the wide stance and the close stance.
But through 1t all there was woven
ragged thread of confidence which con-
tinually snapped under the strain.
Evans could putt we'll enough with little
at stake, although even here he was not
a Travers or a Travis.
But once in a tight match there would
come to him, subconsciously at first that
lurking dread, that growing fear, OF a,
missed putt And as the fear began to
grow, this dread or fear began TO increase
through hard match until finally there
was registered a distinct and indelibIe inn
preston upon his subconscious mind-the
belief that he could not putt.
There is an illustration we have in
mind. We saw Chick at Baltusrol last
June just before the open championship
started
How is your gamer" We asked.
Good enough" he said, until I get
simply can't. They just won't go down"

No. 4-Charles (Chick) Evans

Why is it that Chick Evans can't putt
is a query that we have heard oftener than
any other in the realm of golf.
Here is a golfer who can drive beauti-
fully and who, under pressure, can play a
full iron shot or a delicate mashie-nibliclS
pitch to a fast green
If 1t was entirely question of nerve or
nerves, why wouldn't his mashie play be
affected also?

Systematic Saving Plan.

Owing to the growing popular
ity of. various kinds of savings
clubs and the success they have
proven elsewhere, the Navajo
Apache Bank and Trust Co. has
instituted a systematic saving
plan to which it invites attention.
In order to encourage partici-
pants in this plan the bank will
give the first dollar to deposit,
after which the customer will de-
posit one dollar per week for for
ty-nine consecutive weeks, which
payments will be registered in a
neat book made for the purpose,
and at the expiration of the term
the book becomes an interest
bearing $50 Gold Bond, or the
depositor may draw $50 in gold.
The same plan has been work
ed out successfully in other
places under various names, such
as Christmas saving clubs, vaca-
tion savings accounts, and last
year many people participated in
just such schemes to save for
their trip to the P. P. |. exposi-
ton. But whatever name is CIV
en- to the scheme the result is
the same. 1t creates the saving
habit. The bank starts the ac-
count with a gift dollar, then the
depositor places another dollar to
the credit of his certificate and
in forty-nine weeks it is done.
You have $50, either to draw in
terest for you at the rate of 5
per cent per annum, for your
trip, for Christmas gifts, or any
other purpose for which you may
care to use it.
1t is not hard to save a dollar
or two each week, and $50 or
$100 saved out of ones loose
change or pin money each year
is very handsome amount.
You are invited to investigate
this plan, and the Navajo-Apa-
che Bank and Trust Co. has $100
to give away in starting these
accounts.
