THINK THIS OVER

If the enterprises and promotion
schemes of the silver-tongped stock
salesman are as good as they would
have you believe, why should they
have to solicit this community to sell
their stock?
There are enough investors in the
city where the project is located to
buy all the stock if it were a good
investment. The salesman has no
interest in your welfare. He doesn't
care to make YOU rich. HE is
JUST SELLING SOMETHING.
There's a difference between in
vesting your money and Sinking"

the money Is it not natural, then,
that every owner should desire a win
ming team? OF course. there can be
only one pennant winner, and only four
clubs can finish in the first division.
Harry Davis, who for years has
acted as first lieutenant to Connie
Mack. is convinced all the humor of
the diamond is not confined to major
league cities. If there was ever a
doubt in Harrys mind on that point
it was dispelled after an exhibition
IBH u! peGeId solelqlv qua suBS
risburg last year.
The Athletics had just finished a
rather disastrous trip through the
west and were on their way home.
While major league teams don't often
game, since it has no bearing on the
pennant race, the Athletics were out
to win the game at Harrisburg.
Mack's team was pitted against
strong club made up of minor league
players and several big leaguers.
The team represented big chocolate
concern that has its factory in that
city. Perhaps no one was more anx-
ious to win the game than Connie
Mack He felt the fans might forgive
and forget the American League trim
mings that had been handed his club
in the west, but he didn't want to
open at home after taking a trimming
from some independent club that
many of the fans had perhaps never
heard of.
The Harrisburg club proved the
strongest kind of opposition, and at
the close of the ninth inning the
score stood to against the Ath-
letics AS is customary. lot of the
fans gathered around the hotel at
which the Philadelphia club was
stopping. 1t was great pleasure
to trim a major league club, even
though it be a tail-end aggregation.
Secretary Won Oil and Harry Davis
are some years older than the rest
Of the club. and there was consid-
erable discussion as to their identity.
Harry says he never fails to get a
laugh when he recalls one fans re-
ply to another as to their identity, as
well as the ball club, of which said
fan didn't have a very good opinion.
TT doesn't matter much who they
are since they are no longer mem
bers of big league club"

Belgian Committee Deter
mined to Complete Ar

ANTWERP. March IA (by the AS
sociated Press) s).-Twenty-four nations
already have officially accepted Bel
GUMS invitation to participate in the
coming Olympic games. and the Bel
gian committee charged with the
preparations is going ahead in the
face of all obstacles, determined to
have everything in readiness in
August. Official notice of participa-
ton by the United States has not
been received.
Confronted by the greatest handicap
ever imposed on any country in which
the games have been held. the Bel
gians are pushing the arrangements
with the same spirit with which they
are rapidly changing their country
from war ruins to a hive of industry.
The principal stadium is very near
completion. and work has begun on
the natatoriur1, where 10000 persons
can be seated to witness the water

being remodeled for the Olympic
cyclists.

open the stadium for the training of
the athletes fortnight before the

Thoughts for Approaching season.

I am impressed by the fact that so
many golfers ask the same questions.
1 believe, therefore, 1 shall make this
article deal with various suggestions
which are helpful.
When you stop to think about 1t.
topping" the correction of which is
question frequently asked of me,
should be a rare fault. 1t is very
difficult thing to deliberately top
ball. as you will quickly learn If you
try to do it. You have to shoot at a
very small part of the ball. almost the
very top of it, in order to produce
topped" shot.
One helpful idea in overcoming this
fault is to use a brasSie. The lofted
face of this club will get the ball in
the air and will restore a badly shat
tered confidence of the topper" The
brassi, will also help "toppers" to
overcome the fault of using too high
a tee. I suppose every player has
noticed that most of the scratch play
ers use the low tee. and they do this
because the low tee produces the
right kind of a ball for a long drive.
high tee has a tendency to produce
a high ball and results in drive
having lots of altitude but not suf-
ficient distance. Those of my readers
who will recall my quotations from
is SO. 1 may also repeat here what
! have a number Of times pointed out,
and that is the player who uses a high
tee finds himself at a disadvantage
on the second shot. for then. of course.
he has to accept the lie which chance
gives him. and this lie is never any
thing like the shot he has from teed
ball.
1t is an excellent plan to stop and
review every exceptionally good shot
you make. This habit will impress
upon you the proper procedure and
render repetition easier.
The player who feels he understands
and has assimilated the principles of
golf will progress faster If he will
play frequently with players some
what better than himself. They set
for him high standard and force
him to bring out the best golfing
qualities. provided he has sufficient
control over himself. so that he isn't
worried by being beaten and doesn't

Creating a winning base ball team
Is a question Of luck. patience. brains
and money, with luck and patience
the principal elements of success. Star
hall players are not for sale. Fancy
prices, such would tempt a man in
any other business, are not alluring
to u club owner when the disposal of
his star player is concerned. Every
owner is willing to give money for
star players. but few are willing to
give star players for money.
why don't they strengthen the
club?' That is always the cry of the
fans when their favorites fail to come
near expectations. Tired OF seeing the
old players go down to defeat with
monotonous regularity. they want
change. Often they demand this or
that innovation. the release of some
veteran or a new manager. Realizing
the important part the fans play in the
welfare of the sport, the owner caters
to their wishes in every way possible.
While the fans are demanding that
the club be strengthened the magnate is
Invariably puzzling his brain as to how
lie can bring about such a condition.
NO one desires a classy team more than
the owner himself. He realizes failure
OF his club to deliver the goods has
cost him thousands of dollars. In an
effort to bolster up his defense he has
tried out lnnumerable highly recon-
mended recruits. but none of them has
added any strength to his machine. 1t
is well known that one in about every
forty youngsters tried out by the ma
jors confirms to the standard demanded.
Thousands of dollars has been wasted
on these recruits who failed to show
Three times the amount wasted for
players has been lost at the gate be-
cause of their lack of ability.
l have often heard owners accused
of not wanting to win a pennant. or
of not wanting to finish in the first
division. Such an assertion is ridic-
ulous, even if many fairly wise men
cling to that theory. Just little rea-
soning ought to dispel such beliefs. but
often it is impossible to eradicate them.
There is much sentiment in base ball,
but financial inducements always over
rule sentiment. Few club owners have
their fortunes invested in base ball for
fun. They seek returns. 1t is a well
known fact that a winning team gets
