WADDELL KNEW
HOW To RAISE
MONEY
RUDE Didn't Mind Looking
Gift Gun in the Muz-
zIe, Either

RUDE Waddell, while being an
excessively poor business man, did
do little thinking for himself
when it came to a question OF get
tiug money as will be atteSAed by
the following experience of Robert
Lee Hedges with the pitcher when
he was member of the st. Louis
Browns.
Rube was given q costly gun by
admirers in Philadelphia one day
on a visit there after being trans
ferred to the St. Louis team. The
weapon was easily worth 500 and
Rube priced 1t highly. Returning to
st. Louis he went broke and hiked
the gun off to a pawn shop where
he got $50 on it.
Soon he needed money again ana
went to Hedges, asking him for $50
on the pretext that he was to redeem
his gun from pawn. Hedges refused
to lend him the money, out old
agree to send some one with him
with the necessary $50 to get the
gun. That was satisfactory to Wad-
dell.
So Hedges sent one Of the office
attaches along with Waddell and
the gun was taken out Of "hock.'
He handed RUDE the gun with the

10 E!
- AND AFTER
.Ry ROSS CoNKLIN-

Indian Spring boasts Of golfer
who manufactured q remarkable
putting score in his first round
over the course after two months
absence. George Holmes IS the
proud pOssessor Of the record,
though, unofficially, it IS believed
to have cost him money.
| Playing in foursome that I'M
ciuded ). Newton Brewer, AL Min
nix, and Richard Daniel, Holmes
had q. succession Of one-putt greens
that was startling. He had six in
a row before his putter found out
the dirty work he was doing win i.
Then he had IL two-putt greens IN
. row. and with only 80 puts for
the eighteen holes, came In very
nicely.
However. in several other rounds
PLAYED with that same array.
Holmes found that his putter was
freakish; that 1t was q thing to
be detested. His six oneIputt
green's gave him the idea Of making
all greens one-putt affairs. Ambi-
tiCus but futile were his efforts to
continue with the lone puts.
Putting costs more strokes than
any other one part Of golf. Driving
and approaching are single strokes
but putting is usually two-stroke
affair, and oftentimes three or
more. John Shorey and William
Cox failed to qualify in the ma.
tionaI public links tourney because
OF miserable putting. Eddie Frost
got in with plenty to spare because
his putter was in tune. and Bill
Mcguire just squeezed in when his
putting game went sky-high.
Washington professionals are in
somewhat of a quandaEy. They
will have two or three places al
loted them In the Professional Golf
ers' Association tournament, and
the two or three will be chosen
in medal play at Columbia on the
nth Of this month.
But the squeeze comes in where
the money is concerned. The p.
G. A. tournament is being held at
Chicago. and a trip to Chicago to
play in a tournament costs much
money Railroad fare will be
close to $50. Pullman and meals
will be additional, hotel expenses,
entrance fees, and other incidentals
will bring the cost of making the
trip well up into $500.
On the sunny side Of the ques-
ton ia the fact that If the pro.
fessionals qualify for the tourna.
ment, they get 800. If they play
In one match before being elimi-
mated, they get 500. And for
every day they last In the tourna-
ment, they get an additional cen
fury note. II they play through to
the last day they get $500 for the
finals.
with all peaceful and quiet the
golf clubs have settled down to
await the fall tournaments. Manor
and Argyle have a match on Sun
day at Manor, and after that they
too will close up shop. Manor is
leading the three team league safe.
