1t is perhaps generally known that
there are no qualifying rounds in a
British championship. All golfers with
proper ratings who are members OF
recognized clubs are eligible. So II
happened that the several rounds in
which form is tried out. so familiar

plunged right in. Travers and Palmer
were scheduled for IL o'clock, while

matches until the afternoon. We con-

going over TO Sandwich just in time
for our own matches. We were not
excited over the Travers-Palmer match /;
il did not seem possible that a man
fifty-six years old and suffering from
lumbago could defeat our champion.
After an early luncheon we went
over to the club and our first question
was the state of the Palmer-Travers
match. We were told that Travers
was up at the 18th hole, and both
golfers were playing badly. 1t seemed
strange that TraVers could be as COM
pietely off his game as the report i'm
piled. Not more than a week before
he had made the course in So, only
one over the amateur record, and some
of his other playing in Britain had ap-
preached perfection. His defeat ap-
speared impossible. He was 2 up and
but five to play, and the man who
once gets two holes ahead has great
advantage on tneSe snort lS-nOle
matches.
When Travers stood 2 up at the
t4th hole ii was said that even Mrs.
Palmer. an enthusiastic follower of
her husbands matches, said that his
chance was gone. But the older
fighter was still there and our conf
dence in the outcome was soon shat
tered. Conflicting rumors flew about
and then came the surprising but
authentic report that TraverS had lost
his advantage and they were all even
going TO the nth hole.
S Across the course the huge gallery
could be seen coming and the ex-
citemeut was tremendous. The ap-
preaching gallery had reached such
proportions that the other matches
were delayed and the players stood
waiting. loud clapping of hands
sounded from the 18th green and
50 quickly did the news travel that
every one knew before Palmer teed
of that he WAS dormy one Excite

pionship. He missed a comparatively
short putt for a half and his dream
of the British championship was over.
My opponent and l were the next
couple off, and we turned our backs
upon the crowds and started forth
upon our own match, but my thoughts
were still busy with the defeat l had
just witnessed.
Over and over the question has
been asked as to the cause of that
defeat Mr.. Palmer said afterward
to me: 81 did not defeat Mr.. Travers;
he defeated himself The scores
bear out that assertion, for giving
Mr.. Palmer the benefit Of every ap-
proximation he could not have been
less than IS and Mr.. Travers' own
score could hardly have been less
than 90.
Mr. Travers has attributed his de-
feat to a sleepless night and conse-
cuent nervousness.
The weather was glorious, quite
chilly in the morning. but warm
about noon and little windy all day.
The course was very fast and badly
in need of rain. 1t may be that every
condition conspired, as it sometimes
seems to do. against Mr.. Travers.
These canditions vary for every man.
There was a cross wind that British
writer's said was unsuited to Mr..
Travers' style. The best part of Mr..
Travers' game is long shots and putt
ing. The fairways were at lightning
speed and the iron shots were pulled
The well watered greens were slow
and Travers misjudged them con-
stantly. AT such a time a man misses
his accustomed club. and at home Mr..
Travers plays with Schenectady.
Although Palmer's drives lacked their
usual strength they were almost al
ways 20 yards ahead of Jerry. but
| of course, driving is the weakest part
of his game. The real surprise came
| when Palmer. after Is holes of in
different golf, played the last three
perfectly. Mr.. Travers was over too
! long. 1t is fatiguing to live con.
stantly before the public for SO many
weeks.

Shouting Players Who WereS
CONNIE MACK OLDEST MANAGER
NOW IN THE MAJOR LEAGUR8

Cornelius McGillicuddy - b e !. e =
known as Connie Mack-is the old
est manager in the major leagues.
December % Connie observed his
fifty-seventh birthday.
There are several magnates in the
majors who are Comics seniors. but
there are no managers. And with his
increasing years the Athletics direct
ing genius seems to lose none of his
cunning that enabled him to annex
several pennants and world series
In many ways Connie Mack is one
of the most remarkable figures in
American sport Thirty-five years
have passed since Connie broke into
base ball, and during that time he has
seen the game in several of it's most
interesting phases. He has been con-
nected with the sport during the time
it developed it's greatest players, TOO.
SO that in building for the future he
has something of value in the way of
knowledge by which to measure fu-
ture greats.
Although his career has been a long
and successful one. it was obtained at
the expense of hard and conscientious

BOARD OF TRADE NOTES

Since Mayor Anderson recently
called upon the people of Ocala to CO.
operate with the city departments,
with a view to making this more of a
''city beautiful" some good results
have been obtained. Some of the
ugly spots have been removed.
1t is scarcely possible to dwell too
much on what city of beauty means.
Too often is the Importance of this
overlooked. What city capitalizes its
ursightliness None, of course. Too
many of us are prone to look upon eff
forts TO make cities beautiful as a bit
Of sentiment that is all right in it's
way, and we give it passive approval
in won't do any harm" kind of way.
We do not stop to consider that
beauty means cleanliness. That it
means health and an absence of dis
ease breeding places. 1t means a bet
ter place in which to live. 1t means
more business, because an attractive
city draws people to it, just as does
an attractive show window or a shop
front. A beautiful city is something
that arouses civic pride. Is there any
thing that kills civic pride and leads
TO carelessness quicker than being re-
peatedly called upon to make ex-
cuses for and to explain away some
eyesore? Beautiful buildings, attrac-
tive STREETS, pleasant and colorful gar
dens, and shady and restful parks
raise the morale of citizenship and
WIN the heart of the stranger.
A city cannot be made beautiful by
sporadic cleanup" campaigns. There
must be created within the people
themselves fine feeling for better
ment. Each citizen must feel a sense
OF shame because of the sore spots,
and sense of pride in the better
looks of things. Cities and towns. like
men and women, have personalities.
The community reflects its citizenship.
Many of our cities and towns are
being beautified in accordance with
plans prepared by landscape archi-
tects. There are some notable ex-
amples of this in Florida. Mountain
Lake, in Polk county, is one. Daytona
has recently had a plan prepared.
Splendid results, however, may be OBJ
tanned if the individual citizen will de-
velop his or her property in his or her
individual way. giving expression to
personal likes. The results obtained
in this way may lack something of a
general scheme, but some of our most
attractive cities owe their beauty and
their claim to the development of in
dividual properties which make up
the wheel. The great test of art, &C
cording to Tolstoi, is sincerity. If eve
ry citizen will do his bit towards
making the city a more wonderful
place to live, and do this as an ex-
preston of his love for his home
place, a city of real beauty will be
the result.
You know many places in Ocala
that are attractive. Is yours as at
tractive?
If you go away for a summer vaca-
ton, will you select an unattractive
place to go to?
Let's back the mayor in his praise
worthy undertaking.
