TRAVERS IS KING
OF MASH|E SHOTS
Prominent Eastern Golfer As
serts Former Champion Is
Americas Chip Shot Expert.

King of mashie shots Is the title
bestowed on Jerome D. Travers. for
mer amateur and open champion, by
a prominent eastern golfer. This
golfers estimation of Travers 10 oon-
tanned in the following article:
1.-The best chip shot player in Amer
lea. That Is a query which was
thrust at me the other day, and. al
though the answer would seem to be
impossible, fnasmuch as individual
opinion ssons is the sole ,1 Judge yet there
ago at Baltusrol the open champion
ship was won by an amateur. and his
success was due mainly to the ex-
cellence of the short mashie shot,
together with that little pitch from
just of the green.
jerome Travers, Of course, was
the chap. and without any hesitation
1 can say that he is the finest short
mashie golfer in the country. Unlike
most of the other players OF note;
he does not use the deep-ribbed
contents himself with a smooth-faced
club fifteen or sixteen years of age
which has hardly been cleaned In all
that time. With that weapon he
pitches firmly or delicately as the
situation demands, and goes down
IN one putt more OiteH tuou ahy
other golfer we can name.
Before going further into details
It might be well to state that mashfe
play nowadays is far different from
that Of ten years or, even, Ave years
ago, principally becaus of the change
in the style of clubs. Nowadays the
player can depend upon the club
doing the stopping, and not the gentle
cut shot with the wrist which was
exemplified SO wonderfully by GIL.

Golfers who delight In stopum play
cannot be depended upon in q tight
pinch as can the other kind.
Which brings US once more to
Travers, who this year is playing as
fine golf as has ever been seen In all
his palmy days. except for the oc-
casonal round due to the lack OF
practice which is bound to ootrude.
And he is better than ever with his

ton OF the Home Service department
OF the Red Cross the story of girl of
ten years whose mother was III and
whose only other relatives were two
brothers, one in camp and the other a
youth of seventeen whose earnings
seemed to be the only means of sup
port for the family.
The Home Service worker called.
found the mother very IN and needing
hospital care at once. Arrangements
were made for the mothers care and
also for home for the girl in the
country where she would receive real
home training and love The mother
grew worse and died soon afterwards.
The seventeen-year-old boy enlisted.
The boy in camp had not known that
his mother needed his help. but was
glad to contribute from his pay when
the true circumstances we're made
known. The girl is now in the coun-
try, going to school, and is receiving
allotments from both of her brothers
and is well cared for She is under
the watchful care of the Home Service
workers and comes TO them often for
counsel.
