to play another fellows game
from the side lines. I Is an
American trait We are inclined 20
let ont z real cheer when GU
favorits comes home with the bacon
and to make The cheer Just as loud
blessed with luck or wins by keen
skill And We are Just as much IN
clined 70 register our kick when
things 80 wrong. One trait nave
noticed about al golters-nearly-
is that We freely crlticise the other
fellows game IN post mortems- Very
often We are vide OF the mark. We
rarely get sufficiently interested IN
his stvle OF play and the problems
confronting him 70 be able to judge
Just what 70 do as vel as the com
petitor himself does
Sometimes one IS inclined 70 think
the English gallery Is preferable to
our oTn. But I do not thing 50.
What leads 70 this belief Is its good
behavior IN match Rare Is Z 70
witness a typical British gallery
break into cheers. That II does not
DO SO e not due TO Its lack OF relish
OF good play It - due to the fac-
that your EnElishman expresses his
joy and admiration IN other ways
He d not enthusiastic IN 20 lar as
appearances 60
ENGLISH LOOK ONLY FOB
SKILL IN GAME
There is another side 70 the com
parisons however. and Il IS that the
American gallery looks only for re-
suits whereas the English gallery
goes forth IN search OF skill That
Is why an American gallery cheers
when its favorite half tops a shot
and has the good fortune 70 have the
ball roll dead 70 the pin Il appre-
ciatea that more than q perfectly
played chip which is not 50 near the
marx. What we want 70 results.
Az an example let me cite .
few instances Last fail Nike
Urnfy vvus playing Al WolIRstou
and he reached q certain green
in foHH- Ordinarily thlg Il not
such = difficult proposition but
in thia case Brndy's tive strokes
were the acme Of perfection I'm
so4 becnuae really terrific
wind was blowing right across
the course. II WINS a fear to keep
a ball On the line under that
handicap. But no one broke into
cheers over Il.
That green was lightning fast and
rolling It was impossible 70 get into
the cup except from one point OF the
compass Nike putted some five
feet from the line and actually his
/ bau rolled u feet from the cup
when IL came TO rest. ! heard one
man say, "1h5t sure was q rotten
putt" Il did look the part II one
did not see the point OF It Here Is
the story:
Brady knew that the odds were
greatly against his holing out from
the edge Of that green Had he tried
70 do so and missed Il meant the
taking Of at least three mere puts
to get down because II was impos-
( sible 10 get even near the cup from
three sides OF the green So he
J elected and wisely 70 putt away
from the hole in order to make his
: second q much surer chance. Brady
'hcIed that u footer and thus proved
his plan 10 be sound. But the point
went over the heads OF most OF the
gallery
BRADY HOOKED BALL
{ INTO SAND TRAP.
I must use Nike Brady for another
[ Illustration Of how a gallery gets the
I wrong impression OF what e player
Z IS trying TO do. II was in the q. s.
open. Playing number 10, a par five

wooden club to get out and promptly
hooked into q sand trap It took
/ two shots TO get out OF this and a
