BEST BALL FOURSO1ME
GAINING POPULARITY
Provides Most Nearly Perfect
Golf With Minimum Effort
and Skill.

golf the choice ban" foursome re-
Gently tried out, is said to be catching
on well. Originators of the idea say
t1at the choice ball method provides
the most perfect golf with mini
mum effort of skill.
IL has been claimed that the usual
four ball foursome as played now does
not produce the best golf for all con-
cerned, so much being accomplished
by the good player that his less
skilled partner generally picks up by
the time the green has been reached
The selected ball foursome provides
Tor all four players to drive and then
after the best drives are selected on
each side the play continues as in the
two-ball affair.
Briefly, in the choice ball method,
after the drives, the team decides
which ball 1t will play, the other ball
being picked up.
After the winner of the chosen ball
has played the second shot his part
ner drops a ball not nearer the hole
and plays. The same choice is then
made for the next stroke.
When the green in reached by one
or both players. selection is made in
the same manner, but In this case a
ball is placed on the spot vacated by
the first player instead of dropping as
heretofore. 1t will be seen at n glance
that besides keeping the medium
golfer striving after every stroke 1t
also enables him to loom as real aid
to his side. provided he happens to
possess a deadly short game.
An ideal combination in a choice
ball foursome would seem TO be "a
good long player and a steady putter.
The latter might also be able to help
oht with an occasional short ap-
proach. For that matter the weak
sister" of the team would always have
chance to atone for previously
dubbed shot. That incentive would
keep interest keen for every stroke.

tween Ritchie and Benny Leonard i'm
medlately began to occupy the atten-
tioh OF men who make n business of
promoting fistic entertainment for the
citlZeniy of this country.
naturally the details to this sug-
sested match have not progressed any
father than the conversational stage
al present, but there is prospect of
some definite offer being made i'm the
near future. The same promoters
VINO are willing to gamble heavily on
the drawing powers OF a contest be-
tween Leonard and White would will
ingly take an equal risk on a meeting
between the present and past cham
pions.
Weight Only Stumbling Block.
There is no great obstacle either TO
balk negotiations for an encounter
between Leonard and Ritchie. The
only factor that might cause difficulty
is in the question of weight, but this
point is not expected to prove insur-
mountable.
When Ritchie fought and defeated
tough Johnny Mccarthy at San Fran
cisco on August last, the California
Dutchman scaled in at trifle over
l4O pounds. He made this weight
without any serious eXertion, so nat
urally the belief prevails that Ritchie
could feduce to 140 pounds at ring
side weighing II he wanted to do it.
With Ritchie scaling at that figure
there W0ll6 not hQ
ancy in weight between the fighters.
For Leonard probably would enter
the ring between 1876 and 1876 pounds.
Frequently in the past Leonard has
fought with 140-pound boys. 1t is
true that none OF these opponents
Possessed the class of Ritchie. but it
is because Ritchie is dangerous and
a wonderful fighting man that the
present demand is growing for this
contest. Leonard would be taking a
great risk, that is certain, but ne
would be royalty repaid as this is
one scrap that would draw a tremen-
dous house.
Money Looks Good.
Leonard and his manager, Billy
Gibson, are shrcwd enough to appre-
ciate this and Trey probably will he
game to take a chance as soon as the
have raised the ante to a proper size.
Ritchie has not figured very promi-
nently in ring affairs since he lost the
title, but in the few matches he has
had he has shown that he still is IA
great little fighting man.
In the meantime, however, the
matchmakers of the country are con-
tinung to besiege Leonard with Of
fers OF $4,000 to $4,000. and even
$4,000, guarantees TO box Charley
White. Some want the match for six
rounds, others for ten, while two pro-
rioters have a twenty-round contest
to a decision in minG. Perhaps there
will be something definite develop to-
ward this contest before many weeks.
II the fighters daily too long, how
ever, and haggle over terms, they may
not get an opportunity to meet until
the war is over. Both are eligible for
military service.

That wise man Of Miletus,'' whom

front may mean the dierence between
defeat and victory and death and
sickness. among both men and SOL

selves down and drink from any fetid

sickness and often death is the re-

This consisted of a deep hole lined
