A Stroke of Luck.

VVTHEN Rupert and Huston and
" their ball club were thrown
w out of the Polo Grounds by
Stoneham and McGraw, owners of
the Giants, few persons believed
they would ever find piece Of
property big enough and convenient
enough for ball field.
The colonels had options on sew
eral plots on Manhattan Island that
would have been enormously ex-
pensive, when they heard of the
Astor property right across the
Harlem river from the Polo
Grounds, easier of access than the
Polo Grounds itself.
Astor wanted to sell the property
in a chunk rather than bother with
disposing of it piecemeal. 1t was
a stroke of luck for the colonels.
They got the property at what is
now considered low price.

However, II Is probably Demp-

Kearns' shoulder to the wheel OF

Kearns and Dempsey. figuring
together, figure that If Carpenter.
who was not conceded chance
against Dempsey, could draw

lieved by many to have a very
good chance, ought to draw as
much.
OF course, condition have

Dempsey and Carpenter met. and

None the less 1t Is bound to be

Kearns signed for the match on

with the taciturn Paddy Mullens.

lar secret that the match was. not
pulled off this year because Gov.
ernor Miller did not want 1t held
before election.
The governor. or at least the
governors advisers, did not feel
that a bout of such magnitude
between the white man and col
ored man was the safest political
risk in the world. They feared
something might happen to hurt
the governors chances of re-elec.

Something worse than prize

much SO that Dempsey and
Kearns have been accused BY
some Of trying to avoid wills.
As q matter Of downright fact
Kearns and Dempsey would prob
ably have been willing to ar.

Il Is believed kearns was told In
40 many words that It could not
be arranged until after election.
The same situation prevailed In
New Jersey. After election every
thing would be Jake" not before.

sociation officials are thinking seri
In all other sports the handicap
rule applies. The nearest parallel
to golf that I can think OF at the
moment Is the National Trap
Shooting Handicap. This suggests
itself perhaps because golf. with
our modern equipment, has become
almost as much a shooting PROPOSE
ton as Is the case with the trap
men and their shotguns. with
targets alivt or Of clay. according to
State laws.
In trap shooting the shooter
takes a position forward or back.
according to his handicap. Jim
Powell. Iowa newspaper publisher.
Is a good case in point. He Is tiny
in size but mighty with his gun. so
at the shoots he has to stand 10
far back you would hardly know
he was there at all IL his scoring
didn't talk so >forcibly.
As 1t Is in golf now all men
arc free and equal at the tee,
but there In . growing idea that
the game will fare best II all
players are made equal at the
second shot. since II Is generally
assumed that the greater skill
in playing applies itself between
the second shot to, and then at,
the green. This sort Of . handi-
cap would be different from any.
thing else in sport and at the
same time Il would lend itself
splendidly to golf.
No one contends that the long
driver In golf has very much of
an edge on his way to the champ
ionship. 1t is the short game that
wins, always. Now, let us assume
that a long driver is matched with
a player who Is short from the tee
but very accurate to and Around
the green.
This will very likely turn out to
be q one-sided match greatly in
favor OF the accurate short-game
player. But in time and with ex.
perience the player who takes great
distance from the tee improves his
short game with practice until he
, Is q good match in that department
for anyone.
Then his long drives give him an
advantage which might well be
handicapped for the best interests
Of the game. Such handicapping
would serve other purposes. 1t
would, for instance. keep the short
driver from striving for long
distance from the tee, and thus
free him from that hazard of play.
ing.
II takes many years for short
driver TO school himself to seeing
his opponent always from fifty TO

The constantly improved golf ball

There In a lot Of difference be.

yards from the green, offers great
opportunity for skillful playing
| With this distance out in half by a
still speedier ball, the question OF
handicapping at the second shot ID
reflected In It's fun importance.
Handicapping the golf champion

 Although they tried to bind the magistrate and the witnesses to se- crecy when they were married in San Francisco on December 24, say ing that no one was to know any thing about the wedding for at least two weeks, the telegraph wires were ringing the news few hours later.
 Mrs. MscLeod, who has resided in Los Angeles more than thirty years. established the Macleod Ar, School three decades ago at Second and Main where the Mott Market now stands. A graduate of the South Kensington Academy of Eng land. she taught art in the school many years herself. She owns the Macleod building at Sixth and AL yarado streets where the school is now located. She also is reputCd to have a large landed estate in Eng land and extensive holdings in Can ada.
 Her residence at 447 South Occi- dental boulevard is one of the hand s, nest in the city having large concert room and conservatory con taiuing many rare plants, beside many rooms filled with antiques, oriental rugs and hangings.
 Mir. Thorp, who gave his age as 36, is a musician, and he and Mrs. Macleod have mutual interests along artistic lines, having met in Europe about eight years ago when they were studying in Paris.
 The expect to spend their Loney- moon in and around San Francisco and will return to Los Angeles in about two weeks. They expected to announce their marriage at q largo reception which they planned to give at their residence, and were conf dent that no one would hear of the wedding until their return.
