USE OWN RULES
st. Andrews Club No Lon
ger Taken As Unques-
toned Authority.

The day is not far distant when the
United States Golf association will
discontinue to enforce the rulings Of
the game as laid down by the Royal
and Ancient Golf club Of St. Andrews.
A. least. things point to the time when
the United States association will deal
independently and viii make and re-
wise its rulings 10 suit itself
Power Is Waning.
The power Of St. Andrews Is wan
ing. That is not TO be doubted For
has not the stymie been barred from
American play2 Was it not one Of
the iron clad rulings Of the Royal and
Ancient club 10 play stymies?
Also, when the Schenectady putter
vas barred by the Royal and Ancient
Golf club after Walter Travis won
the British amateur Championship
with H. dld the United states follow
IN the footsteps OF that body and
bar the club2 Mo- Golfers today are
free to use it. Which Is another de-
Walton from the Scotch definitions.
There is no reason Why the club
should be barred.
Lost BAH Rule Unfair.
There IS not a golfer living who
does not admit that the lost ball rule
in match play is unfair In medal
play If you lose your ball you may
return to the place where the ball
was hit originally and tee another
ball for the loss Of a stroke. II Il is
lost in casual water there is no pen-
atty. II IL IS lost in a recognized wa
ter hazard you may drop another ball
for the loss OF a stroke. But in match
play II you lose 4 ball in bounds you
lose the hole Your opponent may be
on the green in five strokes and your
second is somewhere near the green
Il may be lost or it may have been
picked Up by some one. It makes no
difference. You lose the hole. Yet
efforts made TO put the lost ball in
match play on a parity with the lost
bail in medal play have gone by the
board simply and solely because the
St Andrews has not legislated on it.
And this is true Of every other rule
in golf
But things will be conducted on
another. basis soon. that Of Q. S. rules
governing L. S. play, II is believed.

THE steady growth Of values in base
ball has been brought about by
several things.
The broadening out OF the game,
coupled with its increasing popularity
and the immense amount Of publicity
it has been given. is. Of course, the
root source.
Several branches shooting off
from the root Of basebaII's popu-
Iarity have contributed their share
toward putting values where they
stand.
With the growth Of the pastime
competition grew hotter each season.
Magnates with money began sending
scouts into the bushes for promising
stars The players themselves sensed
the Opportunity to get more money
out Of the game and as the magnates
were willing TO pay It they have them
selves alone to blame for the fact that
salaries have mounted in many cases
TO five figures.
The various baseball wars. brought
about through the belief Of men with
money to invest that there was a mint

their share. The last and greatest
