Whose Game -?

Whom will you find on the golf
courses this season? Will it be the
middle-aged and old men. scant of
will the links be given over to the
1.-THE and muscular young fellows?
MY guess is that they'll all be there
enjoying the fun and sportsmanship
of the royal and ancient game
When golf first saw the light of
day in this country the scoffers jeer-
ingly referred to it ''as an old mans
game" This description was in gem
elal only too true for the advent of
golf saw the young men giving their
play time to more speedy and strenu-
Gus games. Foot ball. base ball ten
mis- ana track came in for the young
mems attention. but later. as the game
spread in popularity, it was taken up
by young college men as about the
only substitute they could find for tn e
sports they had enjoyed during their
college careers. And these young
men introduced into the game the
very element it needed to insure it's
widespread popularity. College ath-
letics must be dropped heartbreaking-
ly soon and still an outlet for youth
full animal spirits must be had. So 1T
happened that the better players be-
gan to be found between the ages of
twenty-five and thirty-five. but the
complaint was heard on all sides then:
'Tf I had only begun to play earlier"
1t had not taken long to realize the
value of early training. but their boy
hood days md Been devoted to games
peculiarly suited to early youth with
no provision for sport in middle life
and old age except as matter of
vicarious enjoyment.
After this post college period golf
proceeded with still greater strides
and then fathers began to interest
their boys in the game with the view
of raising the standard of play. Junior
memberships were put in and Junior
championships became fixtures and
keen competition ensued. The result
was a marked Improvement in the
quality of golf. and now we have a
Bobby Jones. a Perry Adair and a
host of fine playing youngsters.
There is nothing so strikes the fancy
of the average boy as a prize. no mat =
ter how small the intrinsic valu,. and
the pleasure of seeing his name in
the paper. About this time we began
to hear of eat-grandfather grand
father and a father and son playing
in the same four-ball match-an in
teresting family event impossible to
any other game. And just such P
happening as that brings home to
us the real reason why it is well for
a boy to play at least little golf.
There are many games more at
tractive TO the usual run OF boys than
golf; there is no danger that thu
heavily -muscled boy is meant for foot

However. please don't get the i'm

couple of players get together for a
conference on the ball field they are
spilling pearly words of wisdom to
each other Usually the chatter is
very light. When you see some catch
er with reputation for being a
brainy receiver walk down to the box
in pinch and talk things over with
the pitcher you invariably make up
your mind that some very interesting
gossip is being disseminated You
probably have reached the conclusion
that the catcher is telling him just

, ball. or the swift of foot and quick
of eye who naturally gravitate to ten
mis- will desert the games for which
nature intended them and substitute
the slower and more subtle fascina-
tions of golf. That will all come
later when time and the law of bread
and butter begin to change the face
of the universe for us.
But it is well to lay slight foun-
dation in beyhood for the game that
abides. Games of great strenuosity
will always have their interest. but
the business man cannot play them
all too soon they must be laid aside.
/ Golf began in this country as an
old mans game. and we know. from
experience that a man can hardly be
too old for it: 1t is rapidly travelling
backward to extreme youth; we seem
to be destined to discover that one
can hardly be too young for it, It's

it? Is that the reason you are work
ing SO fast?"
Say, this fellow never made base
hit off you in your life. Work care
fully on him and don't give him any
thing soft"
Such expressions are just a few of
the many that are slipped to the pitcher
when in distress. At other times some
fellow will suddenly discover that both
of his shoe laces are united. Usually
the main object of any conference ON tne
ball field is to suspend action, and there
by give the pitcher chance to collect
his wits and right himself. The advice
means nothing in his life. but a short
breathing spell is often the means OF
saving him. In this connection l snail
never forget an incident that came up In
a game at Washington several years ago
1t involved Jack Egan, former American
league umpire. who is to manage the
Milwaukee, club next year. and myseH.
Egan was working the plate. The
game was being constantly delayed IN
just such a manner as l have described
| 1t was dragging terribly. Something
seemed to happen every inning 10 $40"
it UP. 1t looked if we were going to
get through the seventh inning without
a stop of some kind, when with two out
and two strikes on the batter Eean
! suddenly called time. Walking half way
down the first base line. he motioned to
me for a conference. / wondered What
could be the matter. l hurried up to
where he was standing. Here is what
| he said to me.
"These athletes have been fooling the
public all afternoon with Their confer
ences They have been making them
selves look wise at our expense. Now
we will give the public a chance to won
der what we are fixing up. Where will
we eat this evening and what will we
have?" l suggested certain place t.
dine and expressed preference for .
steak That was agreeable to Egan. Th
conference ended and the game was re-
sumed. So in the future don't get all
excited when a couple of players or UNI
pires go into conference, they may SIM
