KEEP YOUR EAR ON THE HOLE.
BY H. 3. MARTIN

1t is easy enough 20 learn the
difficult approach over a trap
or a water hazard if one will
concentrate on ones work. One
of the best ideas ever suggested
along this line was made by a
star who advised friend to
abandon the practice of looking
up to see where the ball was
going to drop and to cock his
ear on the hole and listen for it
instead.
Too many players are curious
to see the ball crop. This
causes the head to bob up and
of course the hands come up

Techites' first team gave the merry

anxiety of the player to help
the ball to rise instead of let
ting the club attend to it.
A safe and sure method Of
clearing any sand trap is to
take the club back only far
enough to make a comfortable
swing. The club head should
be sent through after the ball

VETERAN
ON TEAM
Four Newcomers on Gonzaga's
Basketball Team Against
One Leftover
By ROSS I. CONKLTN.

Gonzaga is going to treat the
city basketball circles to a basket
ball debutting. Four of the
Gonzaga players are newcomers;
only one, Captain GCnau, the lone
star of the fotball team, being
left over from last years's prom
ising quint. Not promising.
lube Sullivan, senior member
Of the firm of Sullivan brothers,
coaches of most any old sport,
is at the helm of the destinies
of the team. lube is fresh from
participation on a championship
football team. He hopes to make
his team the recipient Of some
of his winning habits.
The boys will have to bear down
heavily to keep their pug noses
above the surface. Eastern, West.
ern, and Central are among the
local teams which will be met, and
they are only mere starters.
Practically every prep team in the
neighborhood will meet the ]
streeters. s
Sullivan has Enright and Nee
at forward. The former was a
sub last year; the latter only
knows his basketball from what
he has seen and heard this year.
Gergin and O'DonOiue. the latter
q last years remainder, are the
guards. Quinn and Robinson are
alternating at center, with most
Of the emphasis being placed on
the former.
When those five are on the floor
Gonzaga has a light, scrappy team.
They will average about 1913
pounds, soaking wet. Dry they
will not weigh within ten pounds
of that figure.
Reserves are something which
are to be had in wholesale lots.
Robinson, Belair, Fitzgerald, Colli-
flower, who comes from basket
ball family. Tally, Ferraro, and
Augustifer can and will do any
thing asked of them. They get
in the scrimniage in. the Gonzaga
gym every day, and Coach Sullivan
may find 1t highly desirable to put
some OF them on the first team.
Gonzaga has inherited some
wanderlust spirit. The Irishmen
will travel far and wide to meet
all corners. They got to New
York for two games, Baltimore for
three, and all over the city for
single encounters. Then Hyatts-
vile, Georgetown, Garrett Park
and other points wherein abounds
a team, will see the team actively.
GOnzaga has long had the Iegi-
innate kick that the high
schools, called champions Of the
city, were unwilling to meet their
teams. Now in lean years, the
streeters did not care so much
but since they have been jump
ing ahead with really good teams
they have bemOaned the Lack of
competition.
Getting a crack at Central, East.
ern, and Western is good luck
Victories over those schools will
practically assure the team of q
tangible claim on something, And
that is what is wanted.
The Gonzaga team specializes in
passing the ball to some waiting
guy who is camped under the
basket. OF course it takes all kind
OF maneuvering to get that man
free for shot even after he has
the ball. That is what Coach Sill
Ivan is doing, trying to develop
the team into a unit. Ample ma
terial and fair. facilities are al
hand and Sullivan is confident that
he can point with pride when the
season is over. Beat the public
high schools and Gonzaga has q
successful year.

these two buffoons which threat
ems to give them the spotlight
where they don't want it.
Lands thinks the baseball
comptrollership is a one-man
job and wont ride tandem with
anybody. He believes, further
more, that there is room on the
drivers seat for only one chauf-
feur at time.
In addition to his other an
tics, johnson has been going
around in circles as dizzy as a
squirrel in a popcorn rooster.
This act has brought the kind
of applause from the audience
which they appreciate with cob
blestones.
His treadmill stunt was good
ten years ago. before the world
had conquered perpetual motion
and similar crossword guam
daries, but Ban has either got
to get himself a new vehicle or
quit the public monocle.
His act turned sour the min
ute Judge Lands put on his
wig. A year ago the Judge
froze his enemies so hard that
they stayed trapped all winter.
Time has thawed 'em bit
but Lands has 'em back in the
refrigerator again and when
they leave Chicago they'll know
they've been in a blizzard.
johnson has been trying to
lead a, mutiny for nearly three
years now and has had every
thing for successful revolu-
ton except sympathizers. The
last time he elevated his guns
above the 5-5-3 limit they back
fired on him.
Whether Lands is right or
johnson wrong, or both, makes
no difference in the case, be-
cause Lands is the sweet sugar
papa Of baseball until his con-
tract expires and Johnson is
just one Of the boys in the
trenches.
In the meantime nobody is
interested in their fireworks.
This is Christmas time and
peace and good will should pre-
vail. Let 'em save their cam
non crackers until July 4 when
perhaps they can get an audi
