Who is the longest hitter in the game
OF golf? This query has been answered
in favor of so many golfers that to-
day few have any distinct idea as TO
who the two or three leading candI-
dates are.
In this country there is no mastery
of the long hitting game no one long
smashing mandarin above all rivalry
Ofhand we think of Bob Gardner
Jesse Gulford and Oswald Kirkby
among the amateurs, and these com
pare very favorably with the leading
professionals. Three years ago Guiltord
was we'll in front, but Of late he has
tempered or tanned his swing, and is
now back with Kirkby, Gardner and
Ouimet, among others.
While those named are listed as
among the longest hitting amateurs, at
Merton young Bobby Jones kept prac-
tically even pace with Gardner, ana
Clarke Corkran was outsiugging them
all. So when one attempts to name
leader in the United States 1t Is almost
impossible to pick out any one leader

that he would never coach another

The incidents that led up to Dobie's

an opportunity FOR a quiet glggle a.
the expense OF MS "hlhIy HaseN

How Washington held Oregon, a

Dietz, and they had quite a confab.
On the same train were Hedges, Boyce
and Calhoun. Royce invited all Of
