O'NeiI Quits Teaching

George O'Neil, genius of golf in- structors and possessed of the finest Jesuit getting personality as a golt teacher that the sport ever deveI oped, has quit the game-by 80 per cent. I mean that while O'Neil has given up teaching he has not quit playingl He has stepped out of the professionals shop, but not off the links.
 Vardon, five times British open champion. declared ONeil. an Amer ican born professional, to be the supreme golf instructor. The great British player discovered in O'Neil the ideal combination of personality, patience and knowledge of the game to make the perfect teacher and Vardon himself, being a professional of outstanding prominence, was per haps better qualified than any other man in the world to observe the characteristics in O'Neil which so inn pressed the Britisher.
 A Great Instructor
 O'Neil as golf instructor was a credit to Chicago. though he came . from Cleveland, O., to Chicago. As a teacher he smoothed off my own game when l was about to despair of ever finding out exactly what I to abandon. O'Neil went straight to the kernel of things quickly and with unerring judgment. and it is mostly

INDIVIDUAL FEATSI AT BAT SPARKLED IN THE AMERICAN

Compiled by Irwin M. Howe, Chi
 cago, American League statis-
 tician)
 When a team ranking eighth in team batting hangs up mark equal ling or surpassing that of the bat ting leaders fifteen sixteen or eigh- teen years ago, it follows that there must have been many individual bat ting feats that would have been startling in the days when Chesbro, Bender, Plank. Waddell. Joss, White, Young Walsh and otheI- famous hurlers were matching skill with the heavy hltters of their time
 This past season the Boston Red Sox. eighth in team batting. hit .263, the exact mark attained by Cleveland in 1904, three points below that of Detroit in 1907. and eight points higher than Cleveland in 1905, these teams being batting leaders for those years.
 Five Hits a Game
 Seven players clouted five safe drives each, in as many times at bat, in a single game; Ty Cobb pulling this trick three times, while on another occasion he grabbed five hits in six times up. Besides Cobb, those who made five hits in one game while facing the pitcher but five times, were Mostil, Chicago, Gardner and J. Sewell, Cleyeland; Rigney, De- troit; Baker, New York; and Goslin, Washington. It will be noted that four of the seven are youngsters, Joe Sewell being the veteran of the quar- ter with a lttle more than two years of service. Lawton Witt, Sam Rice and Leon Goslin also kept company with the manager of the Tigers by smashing on one other occasion each, five safe blows in six times at bat.
 Extra Base Clouting
 Twelve men hit for total of ten or more bases in a single game. Ken nedy Williams, Ed Miller and Ruth being tied for top honors, C12 bases). Williams set his record by wallop- ing three homeruns off two young White Sox pitchers; Miller made single; triple and two homers in game against Cleveland with Cove leskie, Keefe and Bagby on the mound, while Ruth pounded two homeruns and two doubles on Sep tember Il, as a quartet of Connie Mack's hurIers came and went.
 Ray Schnlk's Record
 Ray Schalk set a peculiar record June 27 in Detroit contest. in which Ehmke and Cole divided the mound duty equally. The White Sox catcher in four appearances 1t the plate hammered a single, a double, three base hit and sent one over the fence good for one round trip. This record was equalled by R. Meusel on July ,. Sullivan and Eckert pitched for the Athletics
 In the period extending from July 27 to September IT, George Sisler set a new American league record Tor batting safely in consecutive games. During this time he hit safely in forty-one contests, because stopped by Joe Bush. September IS. The previous mark of forty games was hung up by Ty Cobb in 1911. Kenneth Williams also started bat ting streak on July 27, but was halt ed August 25 by Hoyt and Murray or the champion Yankees after period of twent-eight games.
 Pratt and Burns of Boston turned in records of the same sort for twen- ty-three games and John Tobin, St. Louis, for twenty-one.

British Champion to Enter American Meets

NEW YORK. Jan. 19.-Captain Err nest F. Carter. noted British golfer and winner of four national tourna- ments in the British Isles since the war, announced today he would enter both the American open and national amateur championships this year. Captain Carter, who intends to make his home in this country, plans to play in several of the amateur tournaments in the south during the winter.
 The British expert paid tribute to American amateurs, predicting that the United States would again tri- umph in the international matches with England for the Walker cup, providing this country sent its best team abroad. He declared that in his opinion, Bobby Jones. youthful Atlanta star, was the best amateur player in the world.N
 ?, Captain Carter said he expected England's international team thfs summer would include Cyril Tolley, Roger wethered, E. w. E. Holder ness, the present champion; c. C.. Aylmer, W. B. Torrance and Willie Murray

| "Get out of here" Burnham finally ordered. "or I'll put you out of the game"
 Put who out?' snarled Kelley fol- lowing him up.
 ''You-I'll put you out of the park"
 But Joe couldn't be quieted. He continued to nag after Burnham. Finally the umpire pulled his watch.
 You've got just one minute to get back and play ball." he told Kelley, "or I'll forfeit the game"
 Kicked Away the Watch
 q have, have F" snapped Joe. With that he reached over and
 slapped the watch out of Burnhams s
 hand and kicked it across the in- field.
 Now you will get out" ordered Burnham. That will cost you $25
 and that watch will cost you hun dred."
 What d'you mean hundred?"
 said Kelley. That. Waterbury ain't
 worth s3.'
 Maybe not said Burnham, But i it's yours.''
 Ruefully 1t dawned on Kelley that he had kicked his prize watch, his | present from the fans, in the dust. , He picked it up and went right out | of the park. and to a jeweler. Ever after that incident Burnham was known as Watch Burnham. i This batting of umpires Is not l nearly so popular nowadays as it was 30 years ago. One reason for that is that it Is not so popular with ] the public. The fans get tired of l continual wrangling. Naturally they 1 prefer to see a ball game, that be- i ing what they came for. Players
 often do not realize this. They think
 only of the game they are trying
 to win.
 Batting Is Going ] Umpire batting and so-called
 rowdyism go together. Both are | gradually disappearing from the l game. The players themselves have | helped to bring this about. There is | no question that the average intelli- | gence is higher now than 1t was 30 years ago Mental training and
 mental discipline do more than any l thing to make a man hold his tenn l per. With that also comes dignity. | Any intelligent and well trained man I realizes that he is merely hurting 1 himself to keep up rowdyism. It 1 never gets him anywhere. It will be i noted that much of the old batting and rowdyism disappeared with the i advent of the college men in num- 1 bers. At school they are trained to respect the. authority of umpires, 1 referees. and field judges. In base I ball the training sticks with them. It is rare that you see a college | player in a long. senseless dispute l with an umpire.
 1 Often, though, the impires them I selves are rowdies at heart. (Copyright, 1928, United States and ] Canada by Chiisty Walsh Syndicate, for l North American Newspaper Alliance and l The Birmingham Age -Herald.}

JUNIOR PAINTERS TO MEET ALABAMA FRESHIES AT BAG.
Game Saturday Afternoon Will Begin at 3::30
 O'clock

The University of Alabama fresh- man basketball team will arrive in the city Saturday morning for their game with Simpson Tech at the E. A. C. in the afternoon at 3:So o'clock. Coach Crisp is bringing eight men with him.
 The following men left Tuscaloosa Thursday on the trip: Forwards, An derson, Cohen and Wharten; cen tiers. Seborn Jones and Rogers, guards. Hudson, Bruce, Jones and McGauley.
 1t Is probable that Coach Crisp will start Anderson and Cohen at for wards; Seborn Jones will probably start at center, and Hudson ana "Stucky" McGauley, brother to the varsity captain, will probably start at guards.
 Former Central Star
 Anderson was one of the best for wards Central high has produced Tn years. He is an excellent floor man. Cohen s from Fl Paso. Tex, and is a good running mate for Anderson. Se- born Jones is a tall man ana ue- pendable center. Hudson was one of Sidney Lanier's stars for the past two seasons. He played center Tn high school basketball. McGauley IS a hard worker and is a model guard.
 There is some uncertainty as 10 what team Coach George Reynolds of Simpson will put on the floor against the Rats" Charley Vincent. the offensive star of the team, has been used at forward, center ana guard in the first four games of the year. It is probable, though, that Vincent will start at center this ait ernoon In case Vincent is used at another position Byrd will take cen ter. Yancey Senn win start at one forward. sem has not been showing up well in the games so far, but he will be given another chance thls afternoon Carroll will start at the other forward. Carroll is hard worker and makes an excellent floor man. Ferguson and Wesley will probably start at guards. Ferguson is a good running guard while Wes- ley plays his position well as stick guard"
 The game promises to be one of the feature games of state high school basketball as Simpson is cred fled with having one of the strongest teams of the state, while Alabama has the cream of last years high school basketball talent.

to his credit that I won the several championships which afterward came to me. Rudy Knepper, the trans Mississippi amateur champion and one of the very best amateur golf CTS today, is another of O'Neil's pu- pills, as was Miss Elaine Rosenthal, a fine woman player.
 As a professional ONeil was iden- tified with the Midlothian. Beverly Hills and Lake Shore clubs in Chi cago. He not only was possessed of remarkable ability as a teacher but was one of the most helpful of golf writers, and because of his ability to tell golfers almost as well IS he could show them he was made the golf editor of the Chicago Trib- une some years ago. He resigned this work when he left the golf field to become identified with Lord & Thomas of Chicago, where he is now an executive in advertising work. He was persuaded to take up this work by his friend, MT. A. D. Las ker, chairman of the United States shipping board.
 Not Grent Player
 O'Neil never was a particularly brilliant player. so the golfing world never heard of him through the headlines that develop from cham pionships. He had the truest of in- structing instincts by which he de- rived as much pleasure through de- veloping the star player as the play CT derived from being in the front rank. He was the trainer and the conditiones, keeping in the back ground himself. He considered his business to be teaching and his idea was that the pupil spoke for him.
 The only tool that o'Neil took along with him when he left the professionals shop was his type writer, and it is fortunate for the golf world that he did so. His golt articles provide the most helpful ot playing tips. He tells the golf en- thusiast what to do and how to dc it. and wraps up lot of information in a small package. few words with big results.
