Even a score with only a five-point
margin does not indicate how bitterly

thing they had into the battle and
personal fouls were many, fourteen
being called against Main High and
thirteen against Breckenridge.

sOnal fouls. In the second half, Smith
and McCabe of Main High went out
on fouls. and Irby of Breckenridge suf-
fered a like fate. while Hill and Whit

winners, needed but one more foul to
necessitate removal under the rules.

Masnate "Agin" Golf.

New York, Feb. 10.-"Too much golf
and too much automobile mas played
havoc with the condition of the big
league ball player"
There you have the opinion of a
well-known major league club owner.
He says playing eighteen holes Of
golf in the morning isn't going to i'm
prove the physical or mental condition
of the player.
Golf is a strain on the player who
has an afternoons work ahead of him.
Most players owning machines have
the speed mania. Holding the wheel for
mile after mile at a fast clip is far
from beneficial to the diamond athlete.
The strain burns up the player men
tally and physically.

GOLF TITLES SLIPPERY
Not In Ten Years Has Any Golfer
Won Big HOnOrs Twice.

New York. Feb. 1O.-A golf title is
the most tickle thing in all spOrtdOm.
In baseball it is not unusual for
pennant winner to repeat. Likewise
in tennis. For n number of years Bill
Tilden has proved his superiority on
the courts.
In fistic circles. champions retain
their titles for years. Johnny Kilbane
has been the pOsSessor of the feather
weight crown for more than ten years.
In golfsit is a different story. Not
in ten years has an entry been able
to repeat in either the British or
United States amateur or open cham
pionships.
OF the Americans golfers. Jerome
Travers is the one outstanding star
in the matter Of repeating. lie won
the L. S. amateur in 1907 and 1905
and did the same thing in 1912 and
1918.

Nine Brides in One Round
Bobby Jones 69d Difficult Course of Years Golf Scores
by BILLY EVANS

What was the most remarkable
round of golf in 1922?
In year filled with sensational per-
formanccs that is a rather difficult
question to answer.
I have put that question to a score
of golf professionals. During the nq-
tional amateur at Boston l inquired
of as many Of the country's leading
amateurs.
Naturally there is difference Of
opinion, yet a majority of the games
greatest players were willing to con-
ccde the honor to Bobby Jones of At
lanta, Ga.
On September 16, 1922, playing the
East Lake course, at Atlanta. rated
among the toughest championship
courses of the Southland, Jones scored
a marvellous IS.
When one considers that the East
Lake course is G57O yards long and is
a par -, the remarkable feat of Bohby
Jones in playing the course in G3 is at
once apparent.
