the ordinary bread, this variety
can be conserved for a long time.

WEALTHY CLUBS
KEENEST FOR
PURE GOLF
Richer They Are the Less
They Mix in Social
Features.

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.- @ The
Weather the golf club the more
strictly It is devoted to golf, it was
shown today by an investigation Of the
rebellion here and there against the
high cost of running country clubs
which mix social functions with the
sport of the links.
Conclusive evidence was furnished
by the fact that members of Old Elm
Club, Chicago, said to be the most
exclusive golf club in the world,
played more golf during the winter
than those who belonged to more popu-
lar organizations. While all the mem
bers of Old Elm could well afford
to take their golf in Southern climes
during the frigid season, many of them
stay at home for business reasons and
face Old Boreas even down to zero.
This club, as well as a couple Of
others composed of wealthy men, bars
women and keeps up its links and
rather plain clubhouse for the sake
of having golf without any distrac-
tons: Most of the members are in
the declining years of life and brook
no interference with the sport that
ADDS to longevity.
In the popular clubs, most Of the
members are younger and have little
other opportunity for social affairs
except as an accessory TO golf. In
some, golf almost becomes an adjunct
to society. These poorer men can
not afford to keep open house in
mansions or to belong also to a down
town club for business confabs and
to a suburban club for dancing and
cards, as can the weather. men.
The only poor mans golf courses
which are maintained so strictly for
golf as the millionaire's clubs are the
public links and the daily fee courses.
Even the latter in some cases attempt
to provide social functions fo=
habitues.

lulv~xSal ecrNtce cthit correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-A cockey
English welterweight named Tommy
Milligan and a cockey Pittsburgh boy
named Jack Civic fought a great 10
round fight here last night and the de-
cision in favor Of Civic evoked much
disapproval from crowded house.
Milligan at least deserved a draw
verdict and the spectators knew 1t.
They stood around for many minutes
booing the ruling.
1t was a dead even fight. Milli-
gan had four rounds and Zivic four
and two were even. 1t was rather
rough on the Englishman 10 have
Zivic'e hand lifted after Tommy made
the great fight that he did. But Tom
my probably has heard that there have
been worse decisions than this one in
New York.
ENGLISHMAN CHEERED.
Just the same it was a tough break.
He left the ring amid the cheers OF
all assembled, while Ziyie, who un'
questionably put up a wonderfully
game and aggressive fight himself
was hooted by the many who did not
agree with the decision.
While both absorbed much punish
ment, neither was in real danger ci
a knockout at anytime. They would
have had to keep on going to settlt
that question.
They bled profusely from mouth AMI
nose cuts, but fighters like MilligaI
and Zivic don't mind little blood
1t only spurs them on.
WALKER SEES EN-.
Both of them are still in the weller
weight scramble after that dazing
fight. Mickey Walker, welterweigh
champion of the world. looked on ant
admitted as much. Mickey left aftel
the sixth round with Manager Jacl
Kearns, but said before departing:
They are good boys; I'm glad Il
meet the winner"
Evidently he and Kears had de-
cided that Mickey could whip ethel
one. He would have his troubles but
he and his mentor probably are cor.
rect.
The preliminary card developed some
thrills.

PIRATES WILL
FACE HARD
GOING
This is the seventeenth Of a
series Of stories on 1925 major
league club prospects.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-CR-Pitts'
bursh, favored by the youth and con-
fidence of a machine which triumphed
last year, will face reinforced teams
in its drive to retain the National
League championship.
Six teams have made major league
deals to strengthen positions at which
they displayed weakness last year
The Pirate lineup, however. will re-
main unchanged, unless Hal Ryne. in
fielder, and Paul Waner, outfielder,
Pacific Coast additions, win regular
berths.
Chicago, cellar occupant last year
alone of the clubs has been unable 10
make a big winter deal in the majors
The new Cub pilot, Joe Mccarthy
will make his fight with team rebuilt
from minor league recruits.
FOUR BOLSTER LINE-UPS.
Four clubs from which vigorous op
position to the Pirates has been pre-
dicted on the basis Of their perform
ances last year-New York, Cincin'
natl, st. Louis and Boeton-have tax
en- steps TO remedy shortcomings.
Players whose temporary los
through injury weakened the Clan
drive TO head off Pittsburgh last veal
have recovered, while McGraw hai
added Jimmy Ring, former Quaker. tC
bis pitching staff. Hugh McQuillar
mound star of 1924, who was suspend
ed shortly after the start of the sea

slab strength to New York.
First base in the Cincinnati lne-ul
will have new and capable guardian
if Wally Pipp, recently acquired from
the Yankees, fulfills expectations
Luque's recovery from an operation as
sures the same strong pitching corp
Cincinnati had last season.
CARDINALS EARLY BIRDS.
The benefit of an early start under
the leadership of Rogers Hornsby. in.
stalled as manager Of the Cardinals
last June, is expected to aid the figh;
of st. Louis. Purchase from the
Giants of the youthful Huntzingel
adds to the clubs pitching possibili-
ties.
The Braves, who made strong fin.
ish last season with the aid of young
pitchers, have acquired Jimmy John
ston, q seasoned infielder, Eddie
Brown, outfielder, and Jimmy Taylor.

Brooklyn, rebuilt with veteran ma.
terial, and Philadelphia, looking for
added infield strength at first base
from Jack Bentley, are hopeful.
