attack on Scotty. Here is what took
place:
Hanlon Gets Decision

that is what we want.
You know you must stand for the / 0
per cent war tax, then claim your end,'
replied Hanlon.
"Oh. that has nothing to do with us,S
Scotty is said to have replied. What
have we got to do with the war tax.
Just forget the cause"
Matchmaker Hanlon had been a pa
triotic worker for the Liberty Loan
and War Chest funds and this retort
angered him. without a word of warm
ing he replied with a left hook to one
eye and right smash for the other.
Scotty was unable to discuss war. and

decorations and 33 Ia per cent Of the

EVERY GOLFER SHOULD
HAVE SELF-CONFIDENCE
Grit and Confidence Enable Palmer to Beat Travers in
Last British Championship Despite
Attack of Lumbago
By CHARLES ("CHICK") EVANS. JR.

THE possession of confidence, or the
= lack of it, very often means the sue
cess or failure of ones golf game OH a
particular day. This is well illustrated
by match in which ! played the other
day. l have been having slight attacks
of rheumatism for some time. and on
that day my game was desperately bad
not because | was actually suffering from
rheumatism for | was not--but because
had feeling of apprehension, an ex-
pectation of pain, as 1t were, and' this
feeling of malaise resulted in very
bad game, indeed. You fear that your
body will go back on you at critical
moment, and that mental state sends
your game down to zero
When a man feels that he is not going
to play we'll he is not likely to. My
shots on this occasion did not look the
same in the air, and instead of glung
my game down to the ball was jumping
up every moment to see where 1t was
going 1t is maddenng to feel that a
stray twinge at the knee can easily de-
stroy the rhythm of your stroke, just as
easily as the sudden cramp can send the
swimmer to the bottom.
My game on that occasion--an
eighty-reminded me of the way that
make a speech, not that a speech OF
mine could ever reach the eighty class.
but the few times in my life that
have tried to make speech l could net
remember what I should have said until
! sat down--a truly unfortunate state of
affairs. -

"WE'LL>ee in Buffalo Friday as Lew

Phil Glassman, the ambitious manager

ganizations Lew is thinking smore
about the Falls of Niagara than about

Tender is anxious to put away Po-
korni in order TO make an early start for
