The golfers Of the United States
have found that the young cham
pion can be defeated. or course. in
Il game like golf, in which so much
depends upon the indi vidual a title
may he lost any time if the indi-
VIdual machine is not adjusted men
tally and physically to its best. If
Sweetscr had won in Great Britain it
would by no means be certain that
he could not have been defeated in
the United States. His game might
have become seedy in the national
tournament
Mental Poisc Disturbed.
But Sweetser did not win in Great
Britain, and. more than that, he show
ed to the British golfers as well as
to those who went abroad as rep
resentatives of the United States,
that his mental poise could be dis
turbed when Lady Luck kissed her
finger tips goodbye to him. He made
it plain that he did not like the way
in which things were going. and us
ually when athletes are disturbed
out of their equanimity they are max
ing their way into the doldrums Of
the game.
If he can he made uncertain Of his
play in Great Britain. he can he
thrown off his balance in the United
States. and knowing that the golfers
Of the United States are likely to
enter upon competition against him
with the feeling that he is not i'm
pregnable against the odds of misfor-
tune, although he is sure to go for
ward when fortune smiles. That by
no means implies that SWeetser is
not a courageous player. He has
proved that he is. but it does show
that he is not a cake of ice, and it in
dicates that he is like all champions
in the United States. probably not a
continuous winner OF golf titles.
Gives Others Confidence.
Ouimet. Evans. DR.. Willing. Fred
Wright. Rotan. Gardner. all Of the
men who went abroad and some who
did not go abroad. will play in the

they have a foe worthy of them in
