essary 10 the game. A golfer can
play alone, in twosomes or four
somes. whereas in other sports COM
plete teams are required and that
means they can only be played at
those rare intervals when a large
number of players can get together
at the same time.
The infinite varieties Of possible
play in golf is one of its fascina-
tions. Where other sports use but
one kind of club and whe~e the
player is limited in the number of
feats he can accomplish with this
club, ne has in golf eight or nine
different clubs for as many different
purposes and this gives a diversity
to golf which no other game can
equal.
Each OF the eight or nine clubs
has a distinct purpose and with it
results can be accomplished which
car be duplicated with no other
club in the bag More than any
other game it calls for a co-ordina-
ton Of brain power and muscular
power The rewards are not-nec-
essarily-for the fleet of foot or for
the strong of arm. IL is quite as
much a mental feat as a muscular
feat, 10 play golf we'll. There is in
a sense an appeal to of the print
tive about golf for it is a game OF
the open air. Of the wind. the rain,
the sun and picturesque bits of
landscape. Almost every sport eX-
cept golf lays emphasis on physical
strength, but golf in addition to the
physical side presents mental prob
lens that are fully so percent OF
the game. And I believe II is in
this combined appeal to both mind
and muscle that golf owes it's DOM
mating popularity today.

Answer.-The staging Of the ma
tional crow shoot" is in the interest
of game protection and is a most
commendable move. In my judy
ment the hawk should he the es-
pecial piece de resistance For the

awards are medals. individual and

Question.-Saw a recent article,
stating that trapshooting was being
INDUCED in at night by the use of
electric lights Is this line of sport
practicable and have any of the
shooters been able to make high
scores. Where have they been
shooting at night? Give me a little
line on the outfit necessary.
Dubuque, Ia. T. II. ID.
Answer.-Target shooting at night
has become very popular in a num-
Der OF clubs-Kansas City, Mo-;
Peru, Ind; Dayton. o.
The sport has been very much en-
joyed, as it has proven a success.
IT is certainly an innovation. The
targets are painted white, which
gives them the appearance Of a large
snowfall, against a background of
Egyptian darkness. The targets are
easily seen and located. When shat
tered they have the appearance of
a white puff o: dust. In Dayton
they have 10 $50 candle power in
candescent lamps on poles 10 feet
high about 10 yards back of the
score. Two 1000 candle power
lights are placed in position on the
ground, one on either side of the
trap house. All lights are centered
by reflectors

SOUTH BEND
IN BASEBALL LEAGUE

Bob Schnelle received the follow
ing letter yesterday from Louis He'll
broner of Fort Wayen. If. after
reading the letter YOU have ,any
suggestions, send them in. South
Bend needs a baseball team.
Dear Bob
Am interested in the organiza-
ton of a compact class B league to
cover this territory
The following cities have been
suggested: Muskegon, Grand Rapids.
South Bend. Fort Wayne. Richmond.
Lima, Dayton. Springfield
|. Geographically it looks like an
ideal circuit for a SIX or eight club
league.
As far as we have gone it looks
favOrably with exception of Day
ton. The park was taken by the
United States for buildings
How about South Bend? It
should be ready TO come back.
It's been so long since I have been
there that l do not know about 10
cal conditions Like most all Of the
cities | suppose the old guard have
been replaced by new people.
Are you still a fan? Would like
to get your opinion and suggestions
on the matter
Can you give me the names of
those whom you think might be in
terested in putting i'm a club.
An early reply will be appreciated.
With best personal regards,
Truly yours,
Louis Heilbroner.
