TO test GOLF
BALLS AT MEET
Understood Golf Balls at
Skokie Meet Results in
New Practice.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press. )-Omcial test will be
made Of golf balls used in the West
ern' Open championship at Detroit.
this week, it was announced today by
President Albert r. Gates Of the W.
G.. A. This action was taken partly
because that system was adopted at
the recent British open meet and
partly because of a near misadven-
ture at the American Open champion
ship at Skokie.
At Skokie, several balls were found
around the clubhouse that were
slightly smaller than the regulation
size. Persons in charge Of the tour
nament showed the understood balls
to the representative Of the maker
who had brought them to the club
for the use of contestants who de-
sired them.
The agent protested saying that
of an inch of the required dimensions.
showed that the balls had not re!
ceived the final coat Of paint. This
layer of enamel made up for the
missing fraction of diameter. Apollo
gies were made by the manufacturer
who had unwittingly taken the pellets
to the links.
Y President Gates has armed himself
with an official measure, which is a
brass disc about 2 inches in diameter,
weighing exactly 1862 ounce and nav
ing a hole in the cente 1862 inch in
diameter. Any ball that will pass
through the hole Is too small to be
legal and any that will outbalance the
brass circle is too heavy.

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
HEAVY Trading I'm stocks.

Transactions In stocks yesterday
amounted to $4,000 shares. the largest
total in exactly two months. Until yes
.erday sales had not exceeded s5o.o0o
shares since June 21. Trading yes
terday was not large In comparison
with the markets earlier In the year.
when million share days were the rule
and total sales did not fall under the
million mark for full session for weeks
on end Nevertheless. it was taken as
an indication that the public was once
more getting into the market Another
significant factor in yesterdays market
was the manner in which the high total
was piled up on transactions OF compara-
lively small blocks. Tremendous busi-
ness was done in hundred share lots on
rising market. This was believed to
reflect, first, buying by commission
houses for account Of the public, and
second, the decision Of holders OF big
blocks Of securities to hang on for the
moment Had there been any disposi-
tion on the part of those who have been
acquiring and holding stocks over the
last few weeks Of comparative inactivity
to dispose of their holdings yesterday
the rise never would have been so well
sustained on buying in small lots.
