Sport Comment
m All rields

Once in a while the big stars of
the game fail to deliver, all to the
great surprise of the fans. Probably
it is nerves, or lack of concentration,
or they are too highly rated, but the
greatest cause is that we expect too
much of them.
We who sit back and do the root
ing and our own thinking, in our own
particular way have little to do with
the game as it is worked u in front
of us. 1t is not for us to get any
gray hairs over the particular event;
our part is recreation, to relax our
nerves, while the part of the partic-
ipants is just the opposite.
Why did Miss Alexa Stirling and
Miss Cecil Leitch go under at the
recent woman's golf championship
match? Why did the greatest of
amateur golf champions. Ouimet
and Evans, fail to deliver at st.
Louis? What of Suzanne Lenglen's
fall?
These were the most highly rated
and most talked of in their lines.
They were the ones on whom we
had placed our bets. We al rate
them highly. we can boast them up.
we cay say they are going to do this
or that. Then we're through. All
we expect from then on is a thrill.
But how do they feel about 1t?
Their nerves are reversed in their
effort to live UP to our expectations.
They know and realize that they are
put on the field to run a shiver up
our spines and give us our moneys
worth.
But in their effort to come across
they often fail. They fall lower than
at any other time in most cases.
From Miss Stirling there was ex-
pected a great deal; from Miss Leitch
the same. But both played the poor
est games of their careers.
Evans was a champ: so was Oui-
met, and the greatest of French
fiashes-Suzanne-her case is the
clearest example, for a whole world
depended upon her to show some
thing.
All of these, in the most trying
moments, played worse games than
they ever have while clubbing around
on the courts and greens.
In their practice matches they are
care free and loose. They take
chances that often bring startling
results. In championship matches
they play tight and safe.
