OHIO HAS new
STAR EQUALTO
CHICK HARLEY
Chances for Repetition OF
Last Year Seen by Foot
ball Critics.

Aspirations have been kindled in
the Ohio State football game as a re-
suit OF the 40 to 0 defeat of North
western by the Buckeye eleven Satur-
day in the first game of the 1917 sea-
son between teams Of the big Ten"
The clean-cut victory by Wilce's
men Saturday brings them to the
championship, won by Ohio last year
force as probably the strongest con-
tenders for the. western conference
for the first time. This set back vir-
tually eliminates Northwestern from
the race, which last year was between
the two teams which met Saturday.
The Ohio squad. according to crit
les, played like a team that had been
practicing for months instead Of
weeks. Not only did the players show
remarkable offensive strength, but
they displayed deadly tackling ability
and perfect execution of forward
passes. The team, composed mainly
Of veterans, has a new star, who, crit
les believe, is as brilliant a player as
.Ghick" Harley, all-American half
hack last year. The new player is
Gail pete" Stinchcomb, who, with
Harley, forms the wings Of Ohio's
backffeld.
Ohio has only three more games
with conference teams-Wisconsin.
Indiana and Illinois-and critics do
not believe this can stop Coach Wilce's
players in their championship dash.

Fargo High Gets Away with
a Good S~tart-Fumbling
Marks

In a game featured by fumbling by
both teams, the Fargo high school
team defeated the Valley City team
on the local grounds Saturday after
noon by the score Of 80 to 6. Straight
football only was used in the game.
The Fargo team scored a touchdown
in each of the quarters excent the cec>
ond, when it got two. The Valley City
team got it's touchdown in the third
when a playe, broke through on a
Fargo play, secured the ball and ran
to tho goal.
The jamestown team, which defeat
cd the Valley City team 20 to { a week

later in the season, tentative arrange

uero is one sample S0mo timc ago
Nichols was playing at Englewood IN
affair. He came 20 the
sirtoenth hole. a matter of 420 yards.
His tee shot was sliced 10 the right.
When he came TO his ball it was resting
on the sloping side of a hill, buried or
covered al least eight inches under
heavy. matted grass. Guarding the
green there is a deem. ten-foot bunker.
Nichols was full $50 yards from this
bunker and ls5 yards from the green.
Apparently there WAS only one shot
left-to play safe short Of the trap and
take his >. In place of which Nichols
took out a heavy niblick, tore into the
ball with everything he had, ripped up
enough matted grass TO I'LL sack, and
then dropped the shot within four feet
OF the cup for 3. In place Of losing a
stroke he gained one.
Fine Distance
To begin with. Nichols is capable Of
great distance from the tee. He is
from 10 to 90 yards beyond most of the
long hitters in the game. And when he
needs even more distance, he seems to

Nichols has never won an open cham
pionship. and yet among the proies-
sionals he is always the most feared
entry.
In thirty-six-hole match at match

any golfer in America.
II have played against both Nsrdon

this respect is James Braid
Considerable Achievement
Nichols won three wsgers recently
that at first seemed foolish. Over a
certain Eastern course. 6.400 yards long
end well trapped, he bet each :ime that
he would do 20 or better. The offer in
eech case was snapped up. and each
time Nichols came safely through.
Nichols this season has been paying
the best golf of his career although he
is a veteran csmpaigner. But, as fate
will have il. there is no championship
for him 10 shoot at. He has been pur-
sued by queer fates in this respect,
having rarely come TO a championship
when he was at his best.

all golfers to watch. as his game car

smash. There is no touch of the easy,
mechanical style which may be best for
steady results, but you get the feeling
or the thought that he is liable to play
any hole in. one or two strokes under
par az any time.
No one who saw him race home at
Englewood in 30 against a par 80 will
ever forget the pace he can cut out
once things begin TO come his way.
There arc days when his game is ap-
parently only ordinary and there are
other days when no golfer in the world

.ashie Play
of Mrs. Gavin
PoerofAction

There is no woman golf player in
America who has so sound foundation
for her game as Mrs. w. A. Gavin. for
merly of England. but who now claims
this country for her home. Last Fri
day. on the links % the Piping Rock
Golf Club, she won the women's metro
poli;an championship, but those who
had had an insight into her game prac-
tically conceded her this victory before
4 match round was played.
This is not the only honor this little
English woman has won in this coun-
try. as she is still the possessor Of the
women's Eastern championship by vir-
the OF no title having been played for
this season Iu 1915 she was runner-up
IN tho womon's championship st Chi
cago. and. II being her first important
tournament I'M this country, attracted
attention from coast 20 coast.
Mrs. Gavin is not long driver when
pIsvinr In matches that are important.
br- rather contents herself with being
safely down the course IN tho middle
of the fairway and depending on the
accuracy Of her iron shots 20 win. Her
raehie shot 70 the green is By for the
host that She knows or plays, and she
has reason 10 be proud OF mastering
this difficult shot, as ~ was with IN
finite patience and care that she was
taught how 10 use the mashie by j. II.
TAYLOR. the famous English profession
al. who IL regarded as the king or
rooshja plavers. Taylor has won five
open championships, and IN every case
n was his dependable pitch 70 the
green that accounted for these VIC
tories.
Handles Mashie Like Taylor
Nrs. Gavin's execution Of the mashie
l. almost a duplicate OF he way Taylor
nlavs this shot. If anything. she IL
f,nor with the handling OF the club on
account Of not having the strength OF
a man the size Of Taylor. Frequently
sbe olays this club as full shot IN
order 10 Get distance, but she is also
,rae.er Of the short chip shot UP TO
tho min. and rarely makes a mistake IN
not being up, or off the line.
While Taylor Is Responsible 1of
teaching Mrs. Gavin tho mysteries OK
nashie play, it was Harry Vardon VINO
showed her how TO play the famous
nush shot TINS, however, - " '
pse N her IN this country, as the CON
Si.ion Of the soil does not permit the
nerfect execution of II, nor does pro
duce the same effect as on an tngllsn1

Another feature Of Mrs. GAVIN s
