RESERVES HELP
A. s STAY Up
IN RAGE

One df the reasons why the Ath.
letics have been able to stay up In
the American League flag race Is
the clubs strong substitute material.
The club has two extra men in
Jimmy Dykes and Frank WEIGH,
who are as good as any regulars
en- the club with the exception of
AL Simmons. Gautreau, the Holy
Cross second baseman, who has just
joined the Athletics, also is q field
ing wizard.
Last winter Ty Cobb was willing
to give anything but his right eve
for Jimmy Dykes. the Athletic all
round infielder. hoping to play him
on second base. Athletic fans last
season voted Jimmy as the most
valuable player on the team, yet In
spite OF that Mack opened the sen
son with Sammy Hale on third AMI
Bishop ON second.
After Hale hit for around, .445 for
two weeks, he was injured and
Dykes went to third base. He hit
pfacticallyas well as Hale. and
proved q better fielder. A few
weeks ago Hale got back into the
game, again crowding Dykes out.
Bishop was injured last week, and
now Dykes is playing great game
at second.
Frank Welch is hitting 800. and
has played great ball whenever he
has been asked to fill in for either
Lamar or ''Bing" Miller. In fact,
he Is hitting twenty points better
than "Bing." Substitutes OF that
kind are worth having around. !.

DEMAND EYE
ON BALL
Golf Il Not Lone PastiIi1e
Which Requires Constant
View Of Sphere

It's funny how the axiom Keep
your eye on the ball" ID almost al
ways thought Of In connection with
the game Of golf alone. Yet IN the
Scotch pastime, where X. r. e. o.
T. B." is regarded as the first COM
mandment. 1t IL still possible TO
play the average shot without Sec
ing the bali at all! Blind golfers
have played the game with success,
and GrIsc Sarazen has shot nine
holes In forty-nine while blindfolded!
But keeping the eye on the ball
Is really more important, In games
like baseball and tennis. where the
ball is In Haetion when you are try
ing to hit 1t. The target that you
are trying to knock for q loop is
bigger Oh the diamond than on the
tea, and your club is bigger, too. but
the object Is coming at you with q
tricky curve or dazzling speed.
Ty Cobb doesn't look up to see
where he will make the throw from
the outfield until his eyes see the
ball safely in his glove. nor does
he take his eyes from the sphere
tor the fraction OF second, until
his bat either hits or misses it
Cobb. by the Vay. stoops much more
at the plate than he used to-to
+ CLIP him keep his eye on the ball.
In tennis. no less an authority
than Big Bill Tilden has this TO
say: Keep your eye on the ball.
Watch 1t all the time 1t Is In play.
Even see 1t hit the strings Of your
racket" And Bill practices what
he preaches-that's why he's the
champion.

TUSSLE

Bobby Jones, who has finished
first or second in more national
championships than any other rival
in the last few years, with the
possible exception of Walter Hagen,
may find Jess Sweetser the strong
est barrier to the successful defense
OF his amateur championship this
year.
Sweetser, in winning the metro.
politan amateur championship at
Hollywood last week. displayed a
fine return to form. The former
Yale star, when on his game, is one
Of the most mechanically perfect
golfers in the country. His
machine-like accuracy carried him
to a national championship in 1922,
and he lost 1t the following year
to Max Marston only after an
extra-hole match in the final round.
In 1924 Sweetser failed to qualify
and faded somewhat from the COM
petitive picture, but this year he
gives unmistakable signs of a
comeback.
Earlier in the spring Sweetser
played some astonishing golf at
Pine Valley, breaking 20 over this
difficult course. In listing the
"Met" crown he showed he had re-
gained his tournament edge, and 1t
would not be surprising to see him
keep up the forward march.

Owners and managers who frown
on golf % q pastime which should
be summed by ball players have
found another crurnb OF circurn-
stance to add to their stock Of
arguments. The case OF Arnold
Statz Ii being exploited as the
latest horrible example Of the evils
Of swinging on q guttaepercla ball.
It is said Statz golfed himself out
Of the biz leagues. The former
brilliant outfielder fell to q MIXER
ably low mark In batting and was
released by the Chicago Cubs. No
other club in the majors cared 20
take chance on him, so he had
to 20 back TO the minors to gain
q livelihood at his chosen profee.
sion. Last Saturday he signed to
play with Los Angeles, In the
Pacific Coast League.
STATE Is more than an ordinary
golfer. He Is without dobt the best
there ID among ball players. He
has won many tournaments and ta
rated az & near champion. But
the concentration on the links
game, It IL declared, has DESTROYED
his usefulness as q bali player.
While gaining proficiency with the
driver, he lost the swing that
makes classy hitters in baseball.
TO what extent golf IL responsible
for the decline Of STATE as q batter
must remain merely q matter Of
opinion. All arguments pro and

His case, however, may maks ball
players give more serious thought
to the subject whether they are
