Higher Handicap Victim
Frames Protest After
Player Suggests Four-BaU
Match as Substitute
GETS SHOCK OF LIFE
By WILLIAM II. EVANS

lONE of the most embarrassing posi-
" tions in which n player is placed Is
when he qualities In class well above
his ordinary play. This happens quite
frequently, due at times to the player
developing a game many strokes under
his ordinary round or to the fact that
the men who should be in the highest
fight through one or more 6oor, holes
find themselves in a lower division than
usual.
Here is the plant of local golfer
and his story may be of interest to
others who have been similarly placed
Il competed recently in tourna-
men on day following hard and
almost continuous rainstorm of the
night before. As a result there was nc
roll to the ball and some Of the best
players were handicapped, for 1t seems
to me that one of the essential diff
ferences between n good and a second
rate player is that the good player re-
lies more on the roll he gets after his
drive hits the turf. This makes HE
second shot to the green comparative.
ly simple and on many holes he plays
either a mashie or half jigger to the
green, while the indifferent player in
most cases requires either a wooden
shot or long iron.
"On the day in question the scores
were quite high, and was surprised tc
find that I had qualified in the first six.
teen, where / had never been before
and rarely ever will again. But those
fellows who qualified in the high eighties
or the low nineties the following day
were either breaking eighty or shooting
| in the low eighties. The turf had dried
out, and they were getting the roll they
were accustomed TO get. and conse.
quently their second shots were much
easier Nothing happened in the first
| round of any interest. The man
played against was a low handicap man
but he was not getting his shots away
properly. and greatly to my surprise

the man I met had been a finaiist in a
number Of important tournaments, and
there was no question of the result.
But did figure on a pleasant match.
for, after all, the Indifferent player does
like to play against some one who 10
much better. II Is big incentive to
well, and at most clubs the low handicap
men flock by themselves But greatly
to my surprise. as we walked to the
first tee, he asked me IL 1 would object
to four-ball match. The request was
a puzzling one as we were in the first
sixteen even IL II was the beaten eight,
and In tournament play four-ball
matches are never played. Knowing
we'll that / was going to be beaten, all
I dould say was yes. OF course I was
beaten, and perhaps I would have been
beaten much earlier had played in the
ordinary two-ball match, but all the 10y
of golf was gone.
HE did not mean anything by It. He
figured, as I did, that the result was
certain, and he probably thought there
would be more pleasure for him with
another pair in 1t. particularly as the
other pair were nearer his class of play.
Yet after it was all over 1 wondered
how he would have felt IL he had been
placed In a similar position with Chick
Evans, Jerry Travers or Max Marston
as his opponent. and If. for instance, one
of them had suggested that they play
fouriball match. The relative differ
ence in play between his game and mine
and that of any one of the three and
his was about the same. I do not for
one minute think that one of the three
would have suggested 1t, but IL he had,
what would have been the feelings Of
the man who suggested that four-ball
match to me?'

Penn football was given a big boost
today when Edward r.. Bushnell, the
graduate manager. announced that the
annual football clash with Dartmouth
will be played on November Q at Frank

About two weeks ago Dartmouth an

impossible for intercollegiate athletics
to be carried on. Since then the situa-
tion has changed, according to letter
received by Graduate Manager Bush
nell today, and the complete football
schedule will be played.
The Hanoverians started football prac-
tice on Friday, and forty-five reported
for the team. There are few veterans
remaining from last year, but Coach
Cupid Spears, the former All-Americar
guard, is confident that he can turn ou

NEW HALFBACK

Crawford Gets Chance in

PINNEY VARSITY TIMBER

Neglected and overlooked as he toiled
with the scrubs. but willing and deter
mined to see It through till he got the
opportunity Claude Crawford has been
given the big chance on the Penn foot
ball squad. and he has made good
More out of the need of material to
make up two teams than from belief
that he possessed good ability. Crawford
was placed at halfback in the practice
game on Franklin Field Saturday. and he
was largely responsible for his teams
victory. He scored two of the three touch
downs made by his team against Joe
Strauss aggregation.
Shorty Braun was glad to get Craw-
ford to play with his eleven. He knew
the worth of the youngster, for he played
against him at Marietta (O.) High
School Crawford is n product of the
Parkersburg. w. Va, High. and the
| two institutions used to meet in annual
gridiron struggles. Blonde wilmington
also played with Marietta and vouched
for Crawfords ability.
Ran l25 Yards for Scores
The West Virginia boy ran total of
! 1875 yards for his pair of touchdowns
| In the second period he intercepted a
| forward pass from Straus and ran sixty
| Ave yards to the goal line. In the fourth
session he ran off tackle. dropped a few
| would-be tackles with a straight arm
| and sprinted sixty yards for a touch
| down.
/ Pinney, another youngster who is
coming forward with rapid strides,
\ scored the other touchdown made by
Braun's team. and both of them now
have an excellent chance of making
varsity berths.
Neither Pinney nor Crawford would
have made Penn teams a few years ago.
| Neither weighs more than 1855 pounds,
but they are fair material for these war;
time days, when real football players
are SO scarce.
Folwell to Return Soon
1t is very likely that Bob Folwell will
take charge of the Penn team this week.
Bob has been out of the hospital for
several days now and has completely
recovered from his attack of influenza.
Folwells return does not mean the
end of Bill Hollenback. for Wee" Will
liam will be on the job just the same.
I Hollenback will be Folwells right hand
man this year and Jack Keogh will be
on his left side.
1t is hoped that the Swarthmore game
this coming Saturday will go through
as scheduled. The Garnet eleven is OF
the average callber In these days. and a
rip-bang game is certain, provided the
epidemic is under control by that time
and Doctor Krusen and his Health Board
