Driving Important Feature.

The writer has never advanced an
argument that long driving is essential to
playing good golf But It Is fairly
valuable asset. and with other things
equal offers quite an advantage. And
the fact that a player can hit a long
ball is no part of a condition wherefore
he cannot play his subsequent short shots
as well as his brother who is shorter
from the tee. Furthermore the most
improved ball does not make all golfers
long drivers. nor even all good golfers
long drivers
AS to the charge that this Babe Ruth
stuff" the statement is reiterated that by
far a majority of golfers derive more
pleasure from a long drive from the tee
than from any other single feature of
the game. The sinking of a long putt
with the issue on friendly wager
settled thereby is something of a well
come sensation. but an element other
than golfing delights enters there.
Then as to that final suggestion to
allow manufacturers to go along making
improvements and reward whoever de-
velops the best ball by making it the
standard two pregnant contingencies
hang thereon. Who is going to say
when the ultimate in the manufacture
OF balls has been reached, and who, yes,
who, Is going to make the official pro-
nouncement as to which OF the many is
best? That question would open the way
for a discussion that would make the
League of Nations parley as noiseless
as a confab between a couple of mutes
by comparison.

eight or nine spitballs throughout the

the time. 1t is known for a fact that
one well known spitball pitcher in the

A change in the rules that seriously
will be considered at the annual meet
ing this year is one that will permit a
pitcher to have some one bat for him
and yet remain in the game, provided
the announcement the pitcher will be

fore the game starts. The practice OF
removing a pinch hitter in low score
games simply because he could not hit
has not been popular. A majority OF
