POOR PLAY.As WELL As RICH.

| PoOR PlAY.AS WELL As RICH.
The game of golf is often reputed to
De a rich mans sport, or q game for
men too old to engage In other recrea-
lions. No argument ever advanced
against sport of any character is 80
fallacious as this. 1t is true that when
golf was introduced into this country,
only the well do person could afford
to participate in 1t. This was BECAUSE
the cost of providing courses on which
to play was so great, but now that mu-
inequalities all over the land are rec
! ognizing the need of such recreation as
golf affords, and establishing courses
| through public funds either free to
the player or for nominal charge, the
game has been opened to everybody
alike.
| FEW GREAT GOLFERS LOST.
In spite Of the fact that the leading
lights in American golf were in the
army, not a single great player has
been lost to the game. OF course a
great many of the men still are with
the colors and it may be several
months before they receive their dis
charges, but present indications are
that most of them will be home in time
to compete in tournaments during the
summer.
/ Golf has every reason to be proud of
the record It's devotees made during
the war. The number of players who
received their commissions and were
i cited for bravery is beyond all esti-
innate, and both from the point Of field
service and from the manner in which
lgolfers supported the boys at the front,
the links game stands out in the van
of almost every other sport.
II Golf now stands on the threshold OF
the greatest year the game ever has
known. Men who have been with the
colors can't wait for spring to give
them chance to hit the ball, and they
are rushing to the indoor schools and
pratcicing daily so that they will be in
form when the real season opens.
UNCERTAINTY Is CHARM.
1t is source of constant wonder
to all persons who have had anything
to do with the game Of golf as to wha'
so fascinates the players. The mos1
common answer to this is it's uncer.
tainty and that this is what so endear.
the game to its followers. One day
every stroke and shot seems just what
is desired and a good score Is the re-
suit. Another day and nothing goes
right, with poor score as result
Every one has seen wonderful rounds
of golf by the average or mediocre
player with the result that he starts
out each time with the hope that i
will be his lucky day. and the perfec
shot or round will come his way.
BIGGEST YEAR COMING UP.
Lieutenant Francis Ouimet, the for
mer golf champion, sees a great yea
ahead for his favorite game. He say!
that all the players who for the las
season or two have been prevented
from playing will take up the spor
with renewed interest. Il cannot SCI

Last Sunday In Spokesman Review
Trap Shooting Match.

A large number OF members of the

the bluerocks this morning and taking
particular pains to pull down ON the

SIX INNING birds" will not survive the
dose Of No. shot they get, for this is
the second shoot of the 11-week trap
shooting tournament of the Spok es-

Last week the local club made a fine
start in the tournament by shooting
liz out of 125 targets. and this week,
according to those who have been OIL
ing up the old gun and working on
the sights. they intend to, better that
record. for the club has made up its
mind that the first prize this year is
coming to this city.
There are many fine shots and old
heads at the game in the Boise Gun
club. and 1t is hardly necessary to
state that when the tournament is
over Boise will be close to the top u
the contestants. IL not In first place.
Portland won the tournament last
year. The tournament is by telc-
graph, the scores being wired in ia
the sporting editor of the Spokesman
Review. after the stipulated number
of birds have been shot at and the
figures tabulated for the day.

GORDON M'KAY GETS
NEWSPAPER DECISION
OVER JACK BRITTON
Well Known Local Boxer in the Army
10 Making Fine Reputation
for Himself in Ring.

Comrade Edward E. Morton. better
known as Mickey" Morton, the old
time sporting favorite. is in receipt of
a letter from a young man in Uncle
Sans service in New York that Cor
don Mckay, a well known young man
who made many friends and admirers
in this city through his work in the
ring, is going great guns in the east
and bids fair to be one of the coun-
try's best in the very near future.
According to the letter, Mckay
fought Jack Britton, welterweight
champion of America, in New York
recently, and not only gave the re-
doubtable Jack a hard run for his
crown, but got a newspaper decision
over the burly eastern crack. Mckay
was later marched to meet Jeff Smith
another of the casts best crop of swat
artists at Philadelphia, but the bout
fell through. The fault was not Nc
Kay's.
Mckay was also wanted In Mont
real, Canada, to take on the middle
weight champion of that country for
the title, but owing to being in the
army and the regulations forbidding a
soldier leaving the country in war
time without authority from the war
department, could not accept the offer

HOW TO USE CLUBS.
| The professional or dealer In golf
supplies who would fit the new golfer
out properly in clubs gives him the
driver. the brassie, the midiron. the
mashie, the niblic and the putter--
names that to the beginner has some-
thing Of mysterious sound. but clubs
to the veterans are but first aids.
| There are, of course. other clubs. and
many Of them, which are evolutions OF
these clubs and which take of some Of
their characteristics. But these other
clubs are for the veterans. and there
are many veterans who never get away
from the six clubs named
The wood clubs, the driver and the
brassie, are Tor distance. The driver
is used off the tee where there 10 no
impeachment to the lie. where the play
err mayL"tee" his ball according to his
/ desires. Not so with any OF the other
clubs. for after the ball is driven from
the tee, it must be played where 1t Hes.
unless ground rules except.
The midiron. the mashie and the nib
lie are all used in approaching dis
lance Of the green, or to rescue when
! you have bad lies. The mashie ana the
niblic especially come to ones rescue
when recoveries are imperative-when
one is in the tall grass, in sand pun
ker, or where 1t is necessary to loft the
ball over tree that stands between

the driver is the club, but on the lair
way. when distance is necessary. the
brassie is the club to use, If the lie Is
fairly good-that is. If the lower line OF
the bali is not resting below the level u

Where long approach distance Is
necessary, the midiron is the logical
club-distances too long for the mashte
and not long enough for the brassie
