very likely more popular is the small,
folding gasoline stove which will
burn whether it rains or shines. We
have just recently tried out one of
these and they sure are nifty. They
can be started and operated in any
kind of weather and produce hot
fire on short notice. Quite as handy
as the stove itself is the folding

it means that the poor cook (and

day and emerge from the freside red

the little gasoline stove which folds

displace the old fashioned cooking

Some pilots of major league teams

ments of The ball makers that the
spheres had been toned down during

On the face of the returns, how

Would Jack HaUe
a Chance to Win
in a FOreiQ1a Rina?

If Jack Dempsey is correctly
quoted as declaring that he would
fight Carpenter anywhere desired
and also permit the Frenchman tc
select the referee, then the worlds
champion will do we'll to reconsider
his announcement.
If he consented to such an ar.
rangement the crown that now sits
so securely on the head of the title
holder would be in serious danger
of an abrupt removal.
Under the rules as enforced in
Europe boxer may be disqualified
for making faces at his opponent,
and if Jack Dempsey tried rabbit
killer on Carpenter while an Eng
lish or French referee was in the
ring, the American would be divested
of his title in hurry.
Boxers have frequently been dis
qualified in Europe for holding, and
blow struck at boxer who may
be down or about to rise after a
knockdown is sure to result in
disqualification, even though the
blow fails to land.
In fact, Dempsey would be in con-
slant danger of a decision of foul,
and the matching Of the men over

Lively Ball Is Only an Alibi
forLosers--Last Season EXAMPLE

some pitchers seem to be able to us.
it without getting batted all over thu
map. There was only lonely no-hi
game all last year in the two major
leagues. Two of them were pitched
in the majors this year before tht
season was a month old. Perhaps the
alibi slabmen will explain that b,
claiming the machine which wind.
the balls has become as tempera.
mental as the players themselves
particularly those wearing the mantle
of champions.
One explanation which probably
will not set we'll either with the
pitchers or the rooters of today is
that the slabmen may not be as great
artists as those of decade or more
ago.
OF course it would be an unjust
comparison to 60 back to the days
of Charley Radbourne and revive his
record of winning so games in one
season, in spite of the fact he pitched
% consecutive games for the old
Providence champions of the Ma
tional league in 1884. The pitching
distance was much shorter in those
days than it is now, and ball players
were not so finely trained that they
took to the hospital for the slightest
ailment or injury.
Oldtimers Worked Fifty Games.
But one does not have to go far
back into history to find the records
Of Christy Mathewson, Ed Walsh,
Mordecai Brown and a considerable
string of slabmen who did not think
anything of working in 50 games a
season and found fault with them
selves if they failed to ring up 80
or more victories each year.
Last season the leaders of the ma
jor league slab staffs did not win 50
games. The 1921 record in the
American was u wins made by
hur1ers with first division teams be-
hind them. Faber's work was really
the best of the young leagues pitch
ers, as he won Is in front of
seventh place outfit. That was more
than any pitcher in the National
league recorded in the "won" column.
The passing Of the "iron men"
from the green diamond and the fact
that today a manager is compelled
to fiji his superstructure with inferior
material may be the reason why the
box scores Of one day can show no
hit performance by one pitcher and
a flock of hits by some other team
against trio or quartet of slabmen.

After this practice at the traps. throw

the greatest of care in playing these balls
clear up to the cup. After they have been
holed take six Of the balls and toss them
out from the green. Keep the balls fairly
close to the edge Of the green, the pur-
pose now being to execute six run-up
shots. Do not make this shot long enough
to constitute 2 pitch or a chip.
Now. As puts. Make II long puts from

sink every one of the puts. and sink each

1t loosely or carelessly. Far better not
to waste your time than do 1t without
| sincere effort and concentration of pur-
pose.
Circumstances must in all cases deter
mine the amount OF practice or the time
that can be given 1t. Thus the player may
increase or cut the number Of shots here
with prescribed. but should not let down
in any particular on the method of prac-
tice. Miss Alexa Stirling once declared
that she accomplished all her golf ex-
cellence with practically no practice. Per-
haps she was the one of the fortunate few
who need hut little practice. like Bob"
Gardner. the superb Chicago golfer. But
Miss Stirling is a musician. In music, I
dare say. she puts a different interpreta-
ton on the term practice. for accomplished
musicians are the most practiced people I
know. The amount Of time given by
professional musicians to scales IL almost
past comprehension.
And that's the way 1t is with golf. Get
out on the three-fiag course. and run
your scales" Play them over and over
until you get so you can do things "the
way the teacher likes to see them done"
Then, like Miss Stirling, great golfer and
accomplished musician, almost before you
realize what has happened you will have
stepped forth from the swollen ranks OF
the ordinary and will have become an ex.
pert golfer.
