ASKS HOW TO ATTRACT HIM.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX.
am a young girl. considered
pretty, and always wear the best of
clothes. 1 have a great many gentle
men friends. but one l cannot under
stand. My two girl friends and I are
often with this young man, and he is
always lovely to them. showing them
great affection, and seldom noticing
me. l care for him a great deal and
have known him for years. but I usu-
ally am quiet in his presence. Some
other girls are bold with him and he
seems to like 1t greatly.
Please, Miss Fairfax, tell me how
to act in his presence. Should 1 be
bold or stay in the background and
let him slight me?
LOLA F.
Your girl friends make a very SER
ious mistake in allowing a display OF
affection" from an acquaintance, and
you are equally mistaken in being en-
vious Of this illbred form of attention.
A young man of this sort is one that
YOU will do we'll to give no more
thought to. and the last thing in the
world to do is tc cultivate a "boli"
manner in order to attract him. con-
graduate you on having retained
natural and quiet manner, but you
must also be careful in the choice of
your friends

Babe Ruth After
Freeman's Season
HOme-Run Record

We have a right to suspect that
Babe Ruth hopes to slam bang his
way to new major league record for
home runs in a single season.
Ruth has made twenty homers to
date this year.
AS most every thirty-thlrd degree
bug-nut IN the universe knows, one
John Freeman, affectionately dubbed
Buck" holds the medal for slamming
out the greatest number Of homers in
given year in the big shows. With
the Washington club in 1899 he drove
out twenty-five home runs.
The record never has been equalled
in the majors, although it has been
eclipsed several times in the minors.
Some of the minor league records
are interesting, though, as they were
made by men who also starred in the
majors, but failed to set any home
run records after they advanced to
the fastest company.
The best record was hung up by
Frank Roth, with the Evansville team
in the old Three-I league in 1901. Roth
connected with thrty-sx homers.
Ping Bode earned his name of fence
buster when he slammed thirty balls
against the fence for home runs while
with San Francisco in 1910
Gayvy Cravath, recently made man.
ager of the Phils, treated American
Association fans to some slugging in
1911, when he laced out twenty-nine
four baggers.
Outfelder Leslie Mann, while with
the Seattle club in the Northwestern
League, ran up twenty-seven homers
during the campaign of 1912.
Wildfire Frank Schultz, in 1911, got
twenty-one home runs. That same
season Bues, with the Seattle club,
made twenty seven.
When Ruth poled out his seven
teenth homer the other day he passed
the American League record, held by
Socks Seybold.
There's only one thing against Ruth's
chances Of setting a major league
mark.
That is his work of last year.
He started out the 1918 season by
giving the fans in every A. l.. town
idea of how home runs are made. Up
to the close of June he had slammed
out eleven. Then he suddenly Quit
hitting circuit drives. His total stood
at eleven when the curtain dropped.

Proposition to Separate

Favored at citing
By A. c. Cavagnaro

Herman Obertubbesing. chairman Of
the national redistricting committee Of
the A. A. T., is making a good Job Of
splitting up the unnecessarily large
subsidiary sections that comprise the
major body.
Recently the State of Indiana was
taken out of the Central Association.
and now Ober;ubessing recommends
that the State of Connecticut be elm
mated as a part of the Metropolitan
Association and separate district bs
formed for the Nutmeg State organi-
cations.
A meeting to consider this PROPOSE
tion was held at New Haven last Thurs
day. and the consensus vas shat it
would be a good idea. Obertub ubbesing
and Frederick w. Ruben. president OF
the Metropolitan Association, were on
hand to point out the benefits that
would be derived by forming the new
association.
1t always has been contended that
the Metropolitan Assoc alton embraces
too much territory. Besides aimo.s
the entire State OF New York. the local
Difficulty has always been experienced

John c. Collins, Of New Haven, was
elected temporary chairman, and Will

rary secretary. II was decided to re-
quest those present 70 ask their clubs
to vote on the proposition OF a separate
association at once. TO send out a cir

asking their support for the movement

7eQ@sBy o. GRANTLAND RICE
Copyright. 1918. New York Tribune Inc.>

What is par for hole draped a mile
and half across lake-or. rather,
across lake that is a mile and half
wide?
Here is an interesting development
along this line from Sewell Ford. an
ardent golfer, keen observer an all
around sportsman and a most depend
able commentators:
Spofford Lake N. H.
Friend Rice:
If this is open season for foolish
sports, perhaps you will be interested to
hear the result of an event in aquatic
golf which was pulled off here the
other day. Suttingly Golf played on
the water. The ingenious and am
bilious golfer who proposed the game
was ex-Lieutenant Winthrop Faulkner,
of Keene, N. H., recently of the Yankee
Division.
His bright little notion was that he
could drive a golf ball from one end of
Spofford Lake to the other, a distance
of one and seven-tenths miles, in thirty
strokes or less, starting from shore and
continuing in an eighteen-foot canoe:
He was to take his stance on a board
fastened crosswise to the gunnels, and
tee up on another board placed just
forward of his unsubstantial perch.
Also, he was to be allowed a paddler,
who might steady the craft as much as
possible. Right cheerfully, too, he
backed his proposal with cash.
Doesn't it listen like easy money? e?
Would you say that even frisky
young chap who had been drilled to do
bareback cavalry stunts could take any
sort Of useful swing from such a
stance without spilling himself into the
water on his follow through? My
judgment, based on fair amount Of
canoe experience, was that it couldn't
be done. So the bet was on
But at that, Mr.. Faulkner knew ap-
proximately what he was talking about.
Handicapped by a head wind, rough
water and an inexperienced paddler,
he covered the distance in thirty-fou
shots, without wetting his bathing suit.
Only three swings were absolute
misses, and some of the shots would
have. been considered good on a turf
fairway incidentally, he made the
trip back in twenty-five shots, which
may or may not be the record for water
golf over "course" of that length.

even baseball. with all it's bizarre pos
sibilities, can keep pace with the Scot
tish pastime that has added so much to
the general art of conversation.
Some days ago a number of golfers
were discussing these freak or weird
shots. In the course of this polite
chit-chat the brown derby was awarded
a member of the Greenwich Country
Club, although his story was backed up
by several witnesses.
"The queerest thing that ever hap
pened to me-" he said, "was to lose a
hole at Greenwich to a man who had
two shots out of bounds"
That isn't so queer some one in
terjected.
Yes" ne continued. "but he won the
hole with 2.'
This was different matter.
"It all happened in this fashion," he
said. His first shot was hooked out of
bounds, but in crossing the road it
struck telephone pole and bounded
back in. His second was also hooked
out of bounds to the left Of the green,
but this time the ball struck a tree,
bounded back on the green and dropped
in the cup
And at least three witnesses test-
fed to being there when this phe-
nomenon took place.

Can Happen"

In golf it "can happen" as Harry
Leon Wilson's Chinaman explained it.
Oswald Kirkby, the Metropolitan cham
pion, will never be able to explain how
he made certain shot at Siwanoy in
the Victory tournament. His ball was
resting in fairly deep bunker 15O
yards from the green. He was a good
mashie shot away, even with fair lie.
But on this occasion the ball was i'm
bedded in heel print, with only the
bare top showing.
His main purpose was to get the
ball out-not to reach the green. SO
he took a niblick. He had to tear into
the ball to clear it from the deep de-
preston. He expected to see it drop fifty
to forty yards beyond. Much to his
astonishmente the ball was just rising
when it crossed the green $50 yards
from the trap, finally dropping on the
veranda of the clubhouse back OF the
green, where it struck with a noisy
thud. If the clubhouse had not oeen
there as a barrier the ball might have
easily carried 200 yards. And this with
niblick-with the ball mbedded in
heavy sand. Yes, it can "happen.
