CHICK EVANS WILL
WRITE ABOUT GOLF
National Amateur Champion
Will Sprout Out As Author
on Scottish Game.

1t will only be a short time now
before Charles Evans, jr, national
amateur champion. branches out as
"a author" For the past two years
Evans has been working on what
will be known as Chick Evans
Book" The Chicago wizard is one
of the most entertaining OF golf
writer's. and never lacks for inter-
esting ideas. .Es
When asked what he expected to
do during 1921. Evans said, with his
famous smile. Same as last year. l
guess, play golf and sell bonds. This
liz going to be the biggest golf
year we've ever had. Last season
more people played than ever be-
fore, and 1921 will bring out still
greater crowd. The one fly in the
ointment might be the high dues Of
golf and country clubs, but these
must come down. Golf is becoming
more Of a national sport because
the automobile is handy to take
folks to the links and because the
average American likes companion
ship.
Golf is a friendly game. You
can't fight the chap you play around
with. Maybe you'll talk about
scrapping, but you don't do IT,"
Evans admitted that he would like
nothing better than to go abroad
with a team of golfers to take part
in the British meetings, but business
will prevent any such picnic.
"I'll be too busy" he explained.
81 think America will have a strong
team, and look to see Bobby Jones
carry away the honors. I'd like to
go West this year and enter the
Pacific Coast and Southern tourna-
ments, but their dates conflict with
the middle West and Eastern events.

THEY FORGET
THE KICK

One reason why boxers some
times do not look SO formida-
BILE after they rise 10 the
championship is because they
try TO improve their styles.
When boxer possesses a wal
lop which lands him at the top
OF his class he should stick TO
that chin-tickling caress.
The trouble is most OF them
want TO become boxers and give
so much attention TO attempts
10 be skilful that the power OF
their punch is impaired.
IL Is suspected that Jack
Dempsey has ambitions TO do
sleight-of-hand tricks with his
mitts and has overlooked the
fact that his greatest asset is
the punch.
Benny Leonard had the right
idea. He was a boxer first and
acquired his punch afterward.
The reverse method is hazard
