Special Correspondence TO THE Sun.

LONDON, Feb 12.-Discussion in Amer
lean gclf circles regarding the elmlna-
ton OF the stymie and other changes in
the rules Interests British followers OF
the game greatly. A similar discus
sion Is being held here. though there is
no talk regarding the stymie. The big
reed. they think here, is the simplifica-
ton and condensation OF the rules SO
that every man playing golf may know
them. Meetings OF the Rules Commit
tee are likely to be resumed shortly.
John ]. Low. the chairman says that he
expects to call a meeting for May. in
connection with the revival of the Royal
and Ancient Clubs spring medal COM
petition. which, although not yet defin-
itely fixed, is regarded as certain to
take place.
II there is any need to alter the rules
now Is the time at the dawn of the new
era. There was sufficient criticism, for
several years before the war, TO su9-
gest that the laws OF the game stood In
Eeed OF revision: but much OF It came
from a small and somewhat irascible
section OF - community The one ques-
ton that had the golfing world fairly
evenly divided was a very old question
indeed-the equity Of the stymie.
Must shorten Rules.
The greatest benefactor to golfers
would be the person who could sub-edi v
the rules OF tho game so as to make
them reasonably comprehensive and a
good deal shorter. PROFESSIONALLY the
dictlon and arrangement have been i'm
proved enormously. but the growth has
not been checked. and at present the
rules run to about 5000 words. The
average Individual absorbs the laws
only by long practice.
The tyro acquires sufficient knowledge
Of the rules in three or four rounds to
carry him peaceably through an ordi-
nary game. That fact indicates that the
essentials Of the code might with ad-
vantage be condensed. Regulations
would provide for special circumstances.
After all the main rule-the original
rule-of golf is that "a ball must be
given up" Those all embracing words
still figure in Rule 6. but added to them
y the sentence except as otherwise pro-
vided for In the rules and local rules"
Tho complete regulation expressed in
the fourteen words Is surrounded and
overwhelmed by such a mass Of excep-
lions that the golfer IL apt to lose sight
OF the fundamental principle.
1t is hardly matter for surprise, there
fore. that by players OF the old school
he !s frequently rcb>~ced for his tendency
to forget the spirit of the pastime. In
nearly every paragraph he sees permits
sion to forget II. The original principles
occupy 80 little space, and such obscure
places In the code. that they do not

League at tho age Of II when he was
a high school shortstop, McInnis sue
ceeded the veteran Harry Davis. quite
a crack first baseman himself in his
day. and soon developed into ono Of the
great defensive and offensive stars of
baseball
McInnis has been described as a short

description. He is player with Chase's

ability in playing hunts and the proper
sense as to where to play, them. Even
as a kid substitute on the Athletics. he
would sit beside Mack and suggest plays
as occasions would come UP. John
Heydler. president of the National
League, believes II was McInniss field
ing moro than anything else that de-
feated tho Cubs in the 1918 worlds
series.
McInnis also has been a far moro con-
sistent hitter than Chase. and at the age
Of 20 already has hit over 300 seven
times In nine years. In one of the two
others, he hit .295.

the Seniors and Juniors. An inter-
esting contest Is anticipated.
The lumber for two additional
basketball courts Is here. One will
be for the use of the boys and the
other for the girls.
The High School is hoping that
Nogales will wake up to the fact that
a Y. M. G, A. building is the greatest
single need at the present time. Bis
bee, Douglas, Tucson and Phoenix,
have excellent buildings. And please
Mr.. Architect when you design the
building leave plenty of space in the
basement for large gymnasium. One
in which gymnastics of all kinds and
basketball can be carried on.
Yesterday was a busy day in school.
Pictures were taken Of the various
classes in High School and the grades.
In addition to these the football team
and the cast of the High School play
to be given the 22nd., inst, were in
,cluded.
The High Schol is going to- publish
an Annual this year. Plans are under
way and committees have been ap-
pointed to take charge of the work.
The last day Of school just pre-
ceding the holidays promises to be
a busy one. At that time the High
School is planning on having a large
delegation of visitors. We want the
people of Nogales to visit us. So we
have planned the afternoon as visit
ors day. Glasses will go right on as
usual until p. m. at which time the
literary society will give their pro-
gram in the auditorium. No excuses
now please just come over and visit
us at our work. We want you to
come.
Be sure and attend the dance given
Saturday night of this week, by the
High School. The proceeds of the dance
will go to the benefit of the High
School Athletic Association. The
band of the 25th., Infantry will fur
nish the music. Everyone Is invited.
The tennis courts are busy every
afternoon and morning. Tennis Is
popular in Nogales, and the outlook
for an excellent team this year to
represent the High School is very
promising.
Mr.. Madden spoke to a bunch of in
terested students this morning in Mr..
Abernathy's room relative to debat-
ing this year. The tryouts for the
defeating team will take place around
the first week after the holidays al
though the date has not been defin-
lilly set yet.
