Their Training Should Go Long
Ways i'm Putting Cubs Near
the Top.

The Cubs are going to get the
benefit OF learning and welding to-
gether the choicest scraps of base
ball wisdom from two great schools
in the National league-the Stallings
school and the McGraw school.
With Fred Mitchell at the helm
and remember that Mitchell was
high chief adviser OF the Stallings
outfit-Chicago's Bruins will no
doubt be taught some brand new
ideas in the gentle are of playing
ball And if Larry Doyle is made
captain of the team, which seems a
certainty now that his leg has mend
ed, the influence of long experience
under McGraw is bound TO inject
itself into the Chicago club.
Combining the best little base ball
strategy Of the Braves and Giants
with Mitchells knowledge OF the
pastime ought 20 be a big help 20
Chicago. No doubt the opening of
the 1917 season will find the Cubs a
better organized team. with new life
and newborn ambitions to go after

BOXING
LONG DRIVING CHAMP
STILL UP IN THE AIR
Question Has Been flashed and Re
hashed in Golf Circles
But Never settled.

Who's the longest driver among
the golfing amateurs of our perfect
ly good United States?
The question has been hashed and
rehashed by the golf critics, Yet no
one has settled il as yet
When the amateur championship
tourney was held at Philadelphia last
summer. Jesse Guilford. Massachu-
setts state champion, and Bob Gard -
ner. of Chicago. were touted as the
best drivers among the amateurs.
In the semi-final round. when these
two players met, Gardner got geat-
er distance out Of his drives, but il
was pointed out that he was hitting
low ball with a long roll on a
baked course, while Guilford was
hitting high ball with compare
lively little roll
And then the unprejudiced rail-
birds bObbed up with the assertion
that among all Of the players in the
tourney ID. Clarke Crokran of Balti-
more. was driving yards beyond both
players. SO the amateur long-driv-
ing championship is up in the air.
