Golfers Plan
To Visit U. S.
Mitchell and Duncan to
Make Trip; Nardon, Braid
and Taylor May Come

According to we'll known golfer
who has been in close touch with the
leading professionals in Great Britain
there is no doubt that at least two OF
the English favorites will come TO this
country for series OF exhibitions
matches next season. His source of
information has it that Abe Mitchell,
the latest European sensation and
George Duncan will surely make the
trip; also that Harry Vardon. James
Braid and J. II. Taylor are POSSIBLE
ties.
Mitchell. for the last few month
has been playing brand OF go.4
that even the famed champions have
found it difficult to duplicate. He and
Duncan are keen rivals and the fact
that they play different makes of balls
possibly adds interest TO their meet
ings. Mitchell has never visited Amer
lea but Duncan had a successful tour
here a number Of years ago. His first
match in this country was at Deal
few hours after he stepped off the
steamer.
As 10 the other three, il is under
stood hey have been approached with
q view Of exploiting well known make
Of ball. Nardon and Taylor were here
as far back as 1900. when they fin
ished first and second respectively in
the national open championship.
There is talk Of an exhibition match
at Woilaston this week between Francis
Ouimet and George Bowden. opposed TO
George Murphy and Mike Brady. Bow
den has been suffering from IN attack
of tonslitis, and if he RECEIVERS in time
the match will be played
1t will probably be Brady's last APP
pearance in that section for some time,
as he leaves for Southern climes short
ly, after which he will 90 20 Detroit
TO take the berth vacated by Walter
Hagen.
The shoit-hole golf course IS d famil-
lar and immensely successful affair in
Scotland, though it is comparatively I'M
known in England and Ireland. The
historical Bruntsfield Links, at Edin-
burgh, is, of course, the most famous
one known. 1t is now encircled by
towering tenements, but remains the
of thousands. Any summer
evening it is d familiar sight to see the
crowds of working men playing over
the short eighteen holes, some Of which
are not over ten yards long.

LONDON, Nov. 29.-There has been
great golf boom at seaside resorts
during the past season. The receipts
at the nine hole course of the North

been more than sufficient this year TO
enable the club to pay off five years
rent unpaid during the war. Over
900 visitors signed the book during
August alone.
The course during the war vas kept
open mainly fos the benefit OF soldiers
and Il is interesting to note that one

Five Deaths From

season, which closed to-day, according
- reports TO The Associated Press.
The number OF deaths-the lowest in
years-was five less than in 1918, and
seven under the toll Of two years ago.
There were eighteen lives lost during

old-style smashing game included
hurdling. flying tackles and vicious Of
tensive tactic, have been almost en-
,irely eliminated in the new style of
football with IA corresponding decrease
in the number of deaths.
Virtually all of the victims Of the
1919 season were players not partici-
yating in games conducted under strict
physical requirements. Defenders OF
the popular college sport pointed out
that, with one exception, the victims
we're high school players VINO entered
the games without expert training.
The-small number of fatalities this
season was declared TO be remarkable,
the experts said, as the game was
played more extensively than even be-
fore pre-war days.

The Case Of Mike Brady

Mike Brady, for one example, sun
Kinks with undated bitterness OF ene
,enth hole at Braeburn. But for TINS
,oIe Mike to-day would be the open
hampton Of the United States. This
.,olc is 400 yards in length. yet t can
- reached in two fine shots. OuImet
N his first round laid full brassie
hot within three feet of the cup ano
cot a 8. There we're any number OF
as cot here. As 5 hole it is very
simple proposition.
The narrowing thought TO Brady is
that il he had only taken IN the
final round there would have been no
play-off. And IL he had only taken a
8 in the play-off he would have tied
Hagen again. Starting the final round
Brady was five strokes TO the good.
Ne had fair drive coming to the tenth,
where any sort Of shot up the fairway
would have left him a simple pitch to
the green for his 5. But bad hook
placed his ball in trap TO the left
OF the course. The ball was not lying
badly, and any sort OF out would
have made Michael the new champion.
He merely attempted too much where
in place Of playing for safety first ne
attempted to reach the green on a
straight line. The ball struck the
size Of the bunker and bounded back
in. His next stroke got safely OUT,
bur Brady needed for this hole.
II Brady's second shot had been up
the course ne would have beaten Hagen
by two strokes. II he had emerged
rom the bunker in one attempt he
would still have been champion.
