A few years ago paving company secured thls

THE MOST POPULAR GAME

care of himself or herself is too
young to learn the fundamentals and
start to play. There is no other form
of athletics in the world Of which this
so truly can be said.
Baseball deservedly enjoys tremen-
dous popularity. Every school, col
lege and sandlot has its teams, and
the ranks of professional baseball
contain the cream OF the ball playing
talent OF the country. Yet Hans
Wagner, the great Pittsburg short
stop of the past, after a career OF
professional baseball which caused
comment throughout the length and
breadth of the land because he came
back year after year, finally had TO
quit the game at the age OF 4s. The
idea OF a golfer giving up his game
at this age is ridiculous.
Too Few Play Baseball
The criticism made of baseball is
that most OF its. followers are simply
spectators, deriving no physical bene-
fit from their devotion to the game
ana the fortunes Of this or that team.
II can be safely said that the percent
age Of followers of golf who are not
themselves golfers is about on par
with the amount OF alcohol in soda
fountain drinks.
Contrast with Wagner's profess
sional baseball record the golf rec
ord made by the Englishman, John
Ball. Jr. He won the British anna
teur championship in 1888, when ne
