BRITISH PLAN TO
VISIT j. S. LINKS
Golf Committee From St. An
drews Will Study Problems of
American Courses

The Royal and Ancient Club Of st.
Andrews. which received visit from n
committee Of the United States Golf
Association last year to discuss changes
in golf rules, will send similar dele
CATION of five men to this country next
June, according to authentic informa-
tion in golf circles yesterday. The Brit
ish committee, it was said, will visit
many of our courses and study the
problems and needs of American golf
links.
Whether or not there will be further
! revisions Of the international golf rules
is still matter of speculation. 1t is
considered certain, however, that in
many quarters of the American golfng
world there will be strong efforts made
to impress on the visiting committee the
peculiar conditions in this country and
what some consider the pressing need of
| changes in the rules.
It will be recalled that the subject Of
rule changes was one of the issues at
otuhe III Tue ldle revolt OIL tnc W eStern
Golf Association, which refused to ac-
cept some of the changes made last
year at st. Andrews and wanted sew
erai alterations of its own.
One OF the most familiar contentious
of American golfers has had to do with
the character of the soil here. 1t has
been contended that the mud on the ball
and the ball imbedded in the putting
green are conditions that are common
in America, but rare on British
courses.
While the British committee is in
this country it will confer officially with
officials Of the United States Golf As
sociation and continue the discussions
that began last year abroad and re
suited in highly important changes in
the stymie rule and the standardiza :
tion of the ball.
The opinion in golfng circles is that
further changes, based on problems and
conditions peculiar to the United
States, will be the result of the interna
tional conferences during the coming
summer.

OFFEMSE IN, SOCCER
HINGES ON FORWARDS
When attack Ouercomes Rival FuHbacks, Coalkeeper
Still Must Be Mastered-Center Should Direct Kicks

forwards, who make toward the oppo-
site goal with it. 1t is the duty of the
left half to have intercepted the pass,
but failing to do so, to get after the for
ward who did receive it and endeavor
to take the ball from him either by
hooking it from or charging him off the
ball.
In case he is unable to do either he
should interfere with the forward so
that his pass is spoiled or that the left
fullback will have an opportunity 20
do what the half failed to do. The
fullback, having recovered the ball,
should kick it down the field prefer
ably to one of his right wing forwards
| who is uncovered. as both of them prob
ably are, since the attack was .on-his
left wing, and it is good play to i'm
mediately change the locale of the ball.
In case, however. the fullback should
not recover the ball. it is his duty TO
prevent the forward passing the ball
toward the center of the field or to
mate in position to shoot. He must
tackle the opponent fearlessly and try
to take the ball from him either by
charging him off the ball or by blocking
and obstructing him long enough to en-
able the half to recover and come hack
should certainly be able to do it.
Goal Keeper Gets In
If this struggle should continue to
near or within the penalty area. then
the other fullback can come in and as
sist and among them free the ball so
that the goal keeper can run out and
pick it up and probably punt or throw
! it out of danger. In a case of this sort
| IA H. scn CO. tha Ennnnr
run out il any of the other opposing
forwards were close to the struggle, be =
cause they would undoubtedly endeavor
to charge him and spoil his recovery of
the ball.
OF course, in such case as this his
center half probably would be in posi-
ton to assist him against the oppo-
nents. Incidents Of this sort. however
frequently happen so quickly that the
mates in the other positions have no op-
portunity to assist, and it is altogether
the particular job of the players in
volved. -.
It is. however. n definite proposition
that the center and the inside forwards
are the shooting forwards. while the
center and the two wing (outsidel Tor
wards are the advancing forwards. II
is particularly the duty of the wing'
to advance the ball down the wins
and middle it so that the center OF
inside forwards can get an opportunit!
to shoot. A wing forward, as a rule
has no license to try to shoot unless III
should find himself with an absolutel!

shoot than any Of the three inside FOR

800 htterS in the lineup but they could not help very
much. The wallops did not when most needed
There only twenty batters who hit 300 better
in the National League This gives the American big
edge for forty in the select class that circuit
Twenty six of these above 20. against eight in the
National To carry the comparison further the American
League made 80 home runs, which 100 more than
made in the National.
