Now there is great activity in clean
ing up sport. Gambling is not only
frowned upon, but fought.
Sometimes we wonder why these
things cannot be handled before and
not after. Pretty much everybody on
the Pacific Coast knew what was go
ing on at Hollywood, even if what
they knew was rather vague and in
definite as to detail. Whysthen,, should
the industry have waited for the
breaking of a scandal which did almost
irreparable damage to the regulations
of hundreds of entirely innocent mem
beers of the profession? Long ago
there were plenty of people who knew
that the football scandal was not only
due, but over due.
Give the reformer his due. He is
simply trying to protect every legiti-
mate interest-business sport, church
from illegitimate and vicious interests.

YANKEE MISSES
OFF FOR PARIS
ATHLETIC MEET

Now York, July 31.-(By a. P)-
America will send forth tomorrow on
the Aquitanla the first contingent of
girl athletes who have ever gone to
represent the nation on foreign soil.
They will compete in the international
track and field games in Pershing sta
dlun, Paris. August 20.
Not only in athletics, but in femin-
ism. docs their sailing set a landmark.
Before the war women were virtually
strangers TO the track ard field. but in
the stress of conflict. particularly in
Europe, when womanhood stepped for
ward r. fiji the jobs les vacant By the
dcparture Of men to the battle front
they participated in games to fit them
selves for their more strenuous du-
ties in industry.
The result was that running jump
ing and weig !. throwing became part
Of the feminine calendar. in addition
to riding. swimming, tennis and golf.
ccstrd 70 compare the athletic progress
made by women of various nations. an
invitation was sent to the United
states
Girls' colleges and boarding schools
took ur the challenge. Instead of
standing on the side lines cheering
their brothers and swecthcarts on the
ficld, thousands of girls spent the
spring training and preparing them
selves, not always under expert tutc-
lacc, but sufficiently well to break
half dozen world records when they
went into competition.
The field was narrowed to inter-
numerous sectional elimination con-
tests and finally two national meets
were hold. one in the cast. the other
in the far west from the winners OF
which l. girls were picked to go to
Europe. The Judges are positive that
the lG girls arc the best in the nation.
In the meantime much trouble was
experienced in stimulating sufficient
puhllc enthusiasm TO got the money to
send The team abroad. with the result
that nearly all Of the girls are paying
their own "Xpcnscs-one had to borrow
The funds with a promise Of ropaying

GOLF CENTER OF !
WORLD is IN /. S.
NOT CT. BRITAIN

The recent British championship
was a sad blow to Great Britain, but
a sadder blow to the Royal and
Ancient Golf Club, which makes the
silly and absurd rules that charge
penalty strokes for out of bounds
and bar steel shafts, ribbed clubs
and Schenectady putters, etc.
The British felt pretty safe this
year with the ribbed clubs out Of the
way. They felt that tAey had Jock
Hutchinson and his colleagues sewed
up tighter than a drum. They fig
ured out that no American entry
could do anything without his stop
pum club, but what a shock it must
have been to them when Jock, jun
and Walter showed the way, and
Walter, with a smooth-laCcd mashie
niblick to do his approaching, easily
outplaycd all the British in two
qualifying rounds and two Champion
ship rounds. jim was second and
Jock was third on the list and the
latter was thought to he hopeless
without his pet clubs.
All of this must have made the
British golfers think a bit. What
Joke on the r, and A, bat would it
penetrate their skullsr The ribbed
clubs were a great aid to our pros
and without them they would be lost,
the British figured. Now they must
worry about something else.
The steel shafts are under the ban
here in America, but the L. s. G. A.
did not take a step in this direction
until they saw the action Of the
powers that be on the other side Of
the big water hazard.
1t is time we did hit Of thinking
on our own account. Why bar any
invention that is going to help the
buffers game and his pocketbook as
Well? When will the British wake up,
and when Will the American golfing
powers cease to ape the British.
Years ago the game was Eneland's
own. Today the center of golf is in
this country, where it will stay. Isn't
it absurd that We should look to them
for our golf rules
