SUGGESTED LIGHTER
GOLF BALL BE USED
ONLY FOR BIG MEETS
-tt
Thus, Average Golfers
Would Still Have Far
Carrying Pellet.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

New York. March 15.-Latest prac
Heal steps in the line of making a de-
cision whether or not TO reduce the
weight of the present golf ball are
these:
First. a suggestion being considered
by the United States Golf Association
! To let the ball stand as is in the case
of all golf Journeys that do not involve
national or international titles: then,
FOR matches in which countrywide
championships are at stake, lighter
ball, say LIZ ounces with the mini
mum diameter as at present. In this
way. it is held. the pros would be put
. very much unon their mettle in the
great tournaments while the average
golfer would still be happy with his
{ s1.62 ounce ball.
Second. a report in hand from Eng
land that the reduction in weight
would result in the curtailment of a
good drive at about twenty yards
against the wind and less, of course
down the wind; this. of course. as
applied to the expert player. The or
r. dinary golfer probably would turn in
far greater discrepancy of distance
5 as between the present ball and the
. proposed new one.
Third, a series of experimental tests
of the present manufactured golf balls
? to take place under L. $. g. A. cxecu
tive committee auspices at Pinehurt
/. March 27-30, and at Pine Valley
April 11-14. Samples of all leadin:
makes will be supplemented by {

However, his chances to equal the
cnce-brilliant feats of Kraenzlein are
remote because today marks the
epoch of specialized athletics, accord
ing to Coach Robertson.
Murchison, who wears the colors
of the Newark Athletic Club, has
been nominated for four places on an
Al-American track team-at 60, 100

Olympic games in Paris to be held il

TO sweep through TO four victories.

them out and start them running

practice-and now we are going to
add running practice. | am not going
to have it said TO me by any baseball
man that the Athletics have been neg
lected in anything that has TO do with
up-to-date baseball
The Athletics already were due, be-
fore Mack started running practice, to
be better base runners than they were
last year. The changes that have been
made in the team gave greater speed
on the paths. If the team is faster
and exercises skilled judgment rs well
in running bases. Mack has gone much
further toward that degree Of cham
piOnShip skill which he has sought
since the days Of the old champs whom
he disbanded because he felt they were
shop-worn.
Many times Mack's heart has ached
because his latter day players have
been unable to ride atop the waves OF
baseball as they did in years gone by,
But Connie disbanded his champions
on his own account, and he has car
ried the load of grief on his own shout.

God has been using aunties ever since.
She took the baby Joash and placed
him where his grandmother never
went-in the temple. If she had been
a church goer she might have started
a new line perpetuated thru the cen
turies. At any rate God seems to
follow that course today. Six years
passed with never a word of opposi-
ton, but auntie stillmothered the cause
of Jehovah and now the priest steps
in to further advance it. That he was
husband of a princess shows how high
the priest had climbed. Even today

the reign of wickedness and one can

which the boy in the temple was
