sariIy Be Inherited When
Stars Are Grouped

Tho claim has often been made
that goolf ability runs in families,
and on the face OF 1t the theory
seems plausible. In amateur golf
abroad, for example, the father Of
john Bah was one OF the finest
players OF his day and would likely
have won the amateur champion.
ship IL that event had been In ex'
istence when be was In his prime,
Right down tolthe present day there
have been plenty of instances Of
first class form being attained by
members OF the same family.
These successes, however, are due
not so much to golfing ability being
hereditary as to the existence in
the family circle OF one player who
is an example to the others in the
early years.
When persons enter their TWEEN
tieth year they may need lessons,
and in the thirties and forties they
are nearly sure to go wrong with
out proper instruction and plenty
OF 1t.
But in girlhood or boyhood 1t is
better to give the player q chance
to study a first class golfer than
to cram him or her with lessons.

One year ago, when the Wolver-

to revamp her team for the fdUr

The most radical change was the
Introduction of Friedman as a half

ity to pass rather accurately. How
Friedman then passed Michigan to
victory over Wisconsin is now foot
hall history and 1t is safe to say
that Benny will figure prominently
in the Michigan cast all this year
and next.
The graduation of Quarterback

Dodgers New Third Baseman
No Chicken, But Can
Pound Pill

Bill Marriott, the third baseman
obtained at the waiver price OF
| 81, 900 from the Braves a few days
ago, may not win the regular
third base job in the Brooklyn
lineup next year. But, for al
that, he seems to be fairly good
| $4,000 investment.
Marriott is no Youngster and he
has been hanging around for quite
a, while. He is thirty-one years
old and first came up to the big
leagues with the Cubs some seasons
ago. The Cubs let him drift on and
Boston obtained him from Mobile
Of the Southern Association, in the
1924 draft.
Last spring at the training camp
of the Braves Marriott did not com
mand any prominent place Inv the
plans of Manager Davy Bancroft
But he forced recognition by crash
ing all sorts Of pitching hard and
ranging far and wide around third
base to grab all sorts of difficult
chances.
Bill started the season as the
regular Boston third baseman. For
a time he hit hard and accom-
plished everything a regular third
OdSCLIldh 10 C0PpOSCu ~ rI%NOAApAAoAA
But he was so unfortunate as to be
in the throes of hitting slump
when Bancroft obtained Andy High
from Brooklyn. High was placed
at third base and did well enough
| to keep Marriott out of the line-uI
| for the rest of the season.
At that. Marriott's work for the
year, taken as a whole, was con
siderably better than the work OF
LII Andy. In 1913 games Marriott
batted .270, while Highs hitting rec
ord for 1O4 games was .257.
| Marriott will have considerable
competition for that third base tot
next spring and it would not be a.
all surprising If he failed to make
the regular grade. But, in any
event, he's a handy man to have
around and to a ball club situated
| as the Robins are In the matter o.
infielders easily worth the amount
paid for him.

The big attraction in the foot

Saturday will be the annual
clash between the University of
California and Stanford Uni
versity. The seasons records
for the year seem to give Calf
fornia q very slight edge but
last year under similar circum-
stances, Stanford he ID the
powerful Golden Bear team to
q 21-21 tie. Last Saturday the
California team met its first de-
feat by a college team in nearly
six years. The Stanford coaches
and players are putting forth
the most strenuous efforts to
topple California from its PIN
nacle.
Alumni of the two colleges
throughout the country are
gathering around banquet tables
to hear reports of the game and
to give vent to their pent-up
college spirit. All alumni of
both California and Stanford in
or near Washington will gather
at the Hotel Hamilton at z
o'clock, on Saturday evening.
Speakers and college yells and
songs will be a featured between
reports of the game. All inter
ested parties should notify the

equipment, they did not bear
comparison with Americas great
field Of action, but our old dug
outs were richer in talent. Among
the best Of those who performed
at our old-time resorts were men
who have had no superiros.
The old White Horse hall and
its famous proprietor larry

of forgotten things, but ever in
boxing history it will be known
as the nursery whence came world
champions in Peter jackson, the

the same time, hold the middle,

Barron (who, as a lightweight,
cut even with Kid Mccoy, and d
host Of others, including George
Dawson, who would have won the
lightweight title had he been
given the chance.
This old place ceased to be q
hotel and boxing resort when
plans were prepared for the build
ing of the George street entrance
of the Strand Arcade.
Where the old Sydney Amateur
Athletic Club hall once stood is
now a fine building which faces
the York street entrance to Queen
Victoria Markets. The Gaiety
Hall remains. It is now used for
dancing, concerts and public meet
ings.
The Golden Gate in George
street made room for a paIatial
picture house. The site of DarI-
inghurst skating ring, where the
Australian Athletic Club held
sway, is now occupied by many
fine dwellings,. The old National,
in George street, Brickfield Hill,
still stands, but not for boxing
purposes. Brennan's National IS
the National still, but is now a
home of vaudeville. Large and
up-to-date premises grace the spot
where George Scale taught the
game, with the assistance of
Arthur Scott, for many years.
Sam Matthew's California Club
premises have been used for vari-
