|GOLF CHANGES IN FORCE
New Rules Go Into Effect Today
Western Body to Ignore
Stymie Regulation.

CHICAGO. September Changes
made in golf rules following a confer
ence between committee of the United
States Golf Association and a commit
tee of the Royal and Ancient Club of
St. Andrews. go into effect today with
the exception of the rule on stand
ardization of the ball.
The new rules say that in case of
lost ball, out of bounds or unplaya BILE
ball, the player nrlst go back to the
spot where he played his last stroke,
and lose a stroke and distance. The
much-discussed sty1nie rule provides
that the player. when stymied, may
remove his opponents ball and go
ahead with his putt. whereupon the
opponent shall be deemed to have
holed in his next stroke" but the rule
does not apply where the player with
in the limits of the putting green lays
himself a stymie.
The Western Golf Association Off
Gals have announced they will take
no cognizance of the stymie ruling. as
stymies are barred in matches under
it's jurisdiction.

Following the winning Of the junior
and intermediate eight-oared races at
Alexandra in the Southern Rowing
Association regatta July %. the two
Fights failed to keep together. And
inasmuch as the winning OF those
races showed them up a class, the
juniors to be Intermediates and the
Intermediates to be seniors, Coach
Hecox felt that they were not in suf-
ficiently good trim to send to New
York for competition against the best
oarsmen in the east. Furthermore, he
has been unable to get together an
other complete junior eight strong
enough to warrant the belief that it
would stand much chance in Harlem
waters. And "HiX'' does not believe
in making entries unless the entrants
have a fair chance to accomplish
something worth while.

The first event is to be a race be-
