French Lick Golf Course
Difficult to Play In Par

A detailed description of the French
Lick course over which the State
tournaments which opens Monday.
Aug. a. shows it to be difficult to
play in par or whereabouts. Tho dis
tances are long, the total being SAL
yards. with par Y, 80 In and 3s out.
The course 4, is SO difficult that
higher scores than usual will qualify
in the championship round. according
10 the dopesters Match play contests
will probably be won with poorer
scores. Besides the distance OF the
holes, French Lick is hard because
Of the rolling surfaces OF the fair
ways which give many hanging lies.
There are more than 100 traps, which
impede the play. and the elevated
greens made the distance on the ap-
proach shots deceiving. Until the
player familiarizes himself with those
distances. he is apt to use mashie
on his approaches when he should use
a long iron or wood.

Unusual deliveries are the exception
in baseball.
When some pitcher springs a new
one on the unsuspecting fans and
players in the big leagues it is only
natural that his efforts should be
widely exploited.
Elmer Stricklett and Jack Chesbro
won fame and columns of publicity
years ago with the spitball delivery.
The great Christy Mathewson was
known throughout the sporting world
for his "fadeaway."
Russell Ford, on his entry into the
American Legue, was the most talked
Of man in baseball.
Ford was the sensation of the
American League for several years.
Then it developed that Ford was
meeting with great success not
through the spitball but rather the
emery ball, an Illegal method.
Ford carried a piece of emery pa
per concealed in his glove with which
he roughened the ball.
Next appeared on the scene Eddie
Cicotte. The former White Sox pitcher
conceived the idea OF loading the
seams.
This added weight through forcing
dirt or other substances in the seam
made it possible for Cicotte to do
freak things with the ball.
In using the shine ball Cicotte used
foreign substance which, when ap.
piled to the ball and then rubbed on
the uniform, caused a spot as big as
half dollar to take on a high polish
or shine. This spot lessened friction.
