IL has been suggested that the
root Of the trouble, IL Il does In.
deed exist, lies in the courses
that have not kept up with the
new balls and clubs; and the
course fashions the player.
In the old days a good Scottish
course was left a good deal as
nature designed it, and Providence
was trusted for bunkers and hazards
Of all kinds, and I and many an.
other victim can testify to the hor-
rible dangers those same hazards
presented, but natural hazards do
not often fall where the far-flying
balls demand, and certain rough
ness leaves more to chance than
the better groOmed courses Of to.
day.
The industrial situation has been
particularly hard in Scotland during
the last few years, and men have
had either too little time to play,
or too little money to spend, to
spare any Of 1t for balls or clubs,
or any Of the little expenses Of the
game in that democratic land Of its
origin.
Time for men to play is still
further curtailed by the strict Scot
fish rules against Sunday golf. This
rule has always been strictly en-.
forced, but now that other countries
are keeping their courses open on
that day it is bound to make q diff.
ference.
OF course, there are a good many
courses in England now where Sun
day golf Is not allowed, but / doubt
II there is a golf club in Scotland
where one could play the very
quietest, little game on Sunday.
Probably there is not the slight.
est reason to fear that the Scot.
fish game is deteriorating, and
some brilliant young champion may
arise overnight to confound US, but
1t IL interesting to speculate, and
every true golfer has a way OF turn

ever we think about the game that

Star HurIer on Joke
Team.

Manager Artie Fletcher, Of the
Phillies, is banking on Wilbur Hub
bell, right handler, one Of the largg
and most powerful pitchers in base
ball, to come through in 1924.
Hubbell is the man who Tom
Griffith, of the Brooklyn Superbas,
came within an ace of killing with
line drive a couple Of years ago.
When a pitcher receives the hor.
rible support that the Phillies' pitch
ers have received for years, it Is
difficult to size him up. Knowing
that his support Is punk, but realiz'
ing also that he has to make some
sort of showing to save his job,
a pitcher in the situation OF all
those on the Phillies' roster Is under
a tremendous mental handicap, He
is either prone to become utterly
reckless and Indifferent, or to be-
come ultra cautious. II he Is not
reckless he is devoting so much in
tense application to throwing the
ball just right that he throws II
wrong! He is not his natural self,
and his delivery Is affected by q
sort of subconscious pull.
It takes a mighty smart man.

pitcher on a joke team and to make
proper allowances therefor. Pat

Is the motherland Of golf really
falling behind In the breeding Of
champions? Every little while we
hear complaints that Scottish golf.
ers no longer win the big British
events, and disquieting rumors are
waited across the seas. Our coun.
try is filled with professionals from
the old land Of golf, and they have
nothing to complain Of In the way
of deterioration.
The runner-up In our last ma.
tional open championship was Bob
by Cruickshank, fine son OF
Scotia, and he lost the big title by
a. mere play-on Of q tie, and the
irresistible Jock Hutchinson, and
Bob Macdonald, the mighty driver,
and the Smiths and John Black,
and a host Of others always stand
wen among our leading players,
but in the old country there does
seem to be somewhat OF q setback
and there are not so many Dun
cans coming on to take the place
Of fine old players.
The war was very hard upon
the golfers of the whole British
Isles. and we have drained the
old country considerably, at least
as far as professionals are con-
cerned. Higher wages and the
greater opportunities, OF new
land have tempted them, but
there seems TO be some ground
for the fear that the stay-at-home
Scotsmen are not playing the
game with their accustomed skill.
