Innovations in Form of Club Rarely
Prove Practicable-correct Line,
Proper Force and Touch Does
the Business.

With a million golfers in the United
States, little wonder that the inventive
mind occasionally offers suggestions
which threaten to send the ancient
game and its traditions a-glimmering.

reason the ieOnoclasts seldom make

Fox instance, one is az a loss TO know
why anyone should suggest the substl-
tuition OF yellow for white paint on a
golf bah. II has been claimed that un-
der certain conditions white is hard on
the eyes; that on & very bright day
more neutral color would be service
able.
Yet golfers have played for a good
many years. and the sun has Shone Just
as brightly in The past as it does at

His reason Was that when his shots

the caddie had trouble in locating the
sphere. Consequently he figured it on:

to distinguish.
Occasionally some one comes along
with new idea in the form of club.
but these Innovations rarely prove
practicable. Not long since d man had

apply. II he hits the ball right it

Blows Are Similar.
Practice in boxing has an additional
