McGraw, Quick Thinker.

'1 have often seen McGraw take an
extra base by exercising his snap
judgment on how soon a ball could
be returned from the outfield, or by
surprising players with weak arms or
solid heads. l remember once when
We trained on the same field used by
the Yankees at Macon. McGraw and
did lots of running to improve our
wind. We were little fellows. and
Hanlon warned US that we would run
all the flesh off our bones. Finally
he forbade US to run arouna the field.
So we used to get up early in the
morning, so out to the grounds and
do our running before Hanlon arrived.
Can you imagine ball players doing
that nowadays?
McGraw forthwith cut in after this
fashion:

tration that will drive home the point
Hughey is trying to make. One fall

NOTES OF GOLF AND GOLFERS.

Wednesday, playing in a four-ball

his score for the first nine indicates
perfect play without anything bor-
dering on the sensational.

lar kind Of iron shots needed at CO.

also from Chicago, held the previous
course record with a mark of seventy

Miss Louise Lacey. winner of The
Evening Star cup. lost a fine chance
to register a good score at Chevy
Chase last week. Having gotten in
trouble on the tenth hole, where she
took eleven strokes to hole out, she
still turned in a card of .101. Miss
Lacey is at the top Of her game just
now and is playing well enough to
take the measure Of almost any Of
the woman players about Washing
ton, with the possible exception Of
Mrs. Feitner and Mrs. Letta.
The Saturday afternoon putting
contests at the Chevy Chase Club
have been postponed until September.
So many OF the woman members have
left on their vacations that It was
found advisable to stop the competi-
tions for the rest Of the summer. .

youngster was a regular ball player and
had the old alibi ready: II never saw
him. Mr.. Murray. / didn't know he was
on first" was the brilliant explanat ton.
Murray boiled and turned to the bench.
AS soon as he steamed OF a bit he ad-
dressed the whole tribe in this wise:
"I want you fellows to understand
that insist on team work and we can't
have team work If you fellows keep
these secrets. 1t is discouraging to a
young pitcher here to get this sort of
deal. Now, the next time a runner
gets on first when this young gentle
man is pitching. 1t is up to you fellows
to tell him. No more Of this secrecy

Gen. PenneIIa Says It Is In

One of the curious effects of the
war is the international interest
which has been aroused in American
sports. Italy apparently is the most
recent victim of the base ball germ.
according to DR.. Felice Ferrero. di-
rector of the Italian bureau of in

Italy. The Gazetta dello Sport. one of
the most influential sport journals of
that country, is raising a fund for
the purchase of base balls. bats and
foot balls and the distribution of
prizes among the soldiers to stimu-
late competition.
Gen. Pennella. commander of the
I'd Italian Army, in letter to the
Gazetta dello Sport, Gays that foot

timable value in the training for wa +
He praises the initiative of tn
Gazetta dello Sport and says that he
firmly believes that the stimulation
of base ball and foot ball competi-
tion among the various units of the
Italian army will have the most
gratifying and important results in
maintaining the morale of the troops.
Gen. Pennella is especially pleased
with base ball as an aid to training
and the maintenance of the morale OF
the troops.
II look upon this form of sport he
says, "as an integral part of military
training. Solace and diversion are
especially necessary in trench war
fare. During the inevitable lulls in
this kind of warfare the morale OF
the men is likely to suffer. and they
need the kind of recreation that will
chase away gloom and stimulate the
spirit. sports and games take out of
a man the moral and physical kinks
contracted in the trenches. 1 consider
it a mater of vital Importance to the
nation that interest in sport be
stimulated. not only in the army but

made before coming into the National

by the time he arrived the dear pub
