In other words. here is a law which
Is practically used only in tourna-
ments. and then perforce a law more
honored in the breach than in the OBJ
servance. Yet it is on the statute
books and SO must be enforced. The
real. clear logic of it is this: Golf
Is a competitive, not a combative
game. In no other case except the
stymle can players game be inter
fered with by any act of his oppo-
nent. If the opponents ball lies SO as
to interfere with his stroke in the
fairway it may be lifted One of the
great beauties of the game is this
fact, in which II differs from many
OF our other sports where an act of
the opponent may interfere at any
time; as in foot ball the interferers
get in the way of the would-be tack
Ter. and that is part of the principle
of this combative game.
Stymie Rule Is Inconsistent.
But in golf every means has been
taken to give man a chance to play
MS own game. no matter what the
opponent does, except this one single
instance of the stymie. and for this
reason in order to make the game
consistent, the stymie should be
eliminated except in the case where
ehc pAoS ci idS himself SCSmle, IN
which case he knows exactly what he
is doing. can see his opponents ball
exactly as he sees a bunker. And if.
then. he does not avoid it, it is his
fault. But if mans ball lies with a
clear putt for the hole and then the
opponent plays and blocks that putt,
1t is the single instance in the game
of golf where an act of the opponent
may interfere with the players prog
reSs.
Many efforts have been made to
force the thousands of players to OBJ
serve the stymie rule, but the efforts
have never been successful. Why,
then, if the rule is inconsistent with
the general character of the game,
and II players do not observe the rule,
would 1t not be better to put more
efforts on the observance of rules
which are more vital to the game
perfectly reasonable and consistent
in their application. and where the
observance of these rules is really Of
great advantage to all players?
Such rules are those governing
precedence on the golf course, the
bunkers, the replacing of divots and
the proper treatment of caddies. No
one can say that very strong efforts
have not been made in clubs TO force
members to replace divotS and to OBJ
serve certain other of the rules of the
game. but the matter of precedence
and the rights of the course have not
been sufficienuy emphasized. and a
real effort made along this line would
aid materially and would avoid such
unfortunate instance as that which
happened at Chevy Chase and resulted
in the expulsion of one of the mem
bers.
How About These Points,

tilious about looking ahead to see if
there is a clear hole ahead of them
and then looking behind and seeing
whether the match behind is pressing

short flight over the extreme south
ern portion of the city turned north

The start was made after an en-

After circling over San Pedro,

dirigible is to head north. flying over
Santa Barbara, en- route to San

reach by sunset this evening. Fifteen
Rockwell Field Army airplanes
fly with the Shenandoah as far north

The remainder of the flight will
follow the coast to Portland, where a,

LAkEHURST, n. j., October 1S.-
While the whole world marveled at
their feat the 81 members of the par
ty that Travelled from Germany to
America in the ZR-3 today enjoyed
their first full day of rest since leav-
ing Friedrichshafen Sunday. They
spent the evening before calmly tell
ing the story of the fight in the
phrases that seemed almost common
place compared with the magniture of
their accomplishment.
While they talked they smoked-a
pleasure that was forbidden on the
ship because of the danger of an ex-
plosion.
The Germans who composed the
crew which guided the giant airship
on her epoch-making flight left the
huge craft reluctantly. They were
fond of their craft with the fondness
of mariners for the vessel that has
brought them safely to port.

DR.. Hugo Eckener, Zeppelin presi-
dent. who commanded the ZR-3 on it's
transa tlantic voyage, was so enthusi-
astic about the accomplishment of
his craft that he expressed the belief
that a regular line of airships carry
ing freight and passengers between
