MAY REDUCE
THE TAX LEVY
Three-Mill Tax of Last
Year to be Cut in Two
One Mill Enough

Reliable estimates on the state
general fund, which comes direct
ly under the governor, show a
healthy condition, making plain
that the state board of equaliza-
tion, now in session, can make a
substantial cut in the general levy
for 1923. The 1927 levy was three
mills, making total tax on pro-
perty of $3,622,s64.
The prediction is made that the
1928 levy will be cut to liz mills,
with the possibility Of reduction
to one mill. In other words, using
the 1927 levy as a basis, the chanc-
es are that 1923 will see from ST.
100000 to s2,4O0,00O cut from the
general tax levy.
The following table shows the
condition of the general fund, to-

The staid old Chevy Chase Club,
where an issue has been debated FOR
years anent the need for improving
the ninth hole ON the golf course
near the clubhouse, and the wish of
many members that the stretch OF
ereensward looking westward from
the porch be preserved in its virgin
state without being broken up by the
irregular lines of bunkerS and haz-
ards. finally has succumbed to the
urgencies Of the better golf course
adherents.
The chief objection has come con-
cerning bunkering the ninth hole,
where for years an unbroken strip
OF turf stretched from the tee to the
green-some go yards away. The
hole was a ss''.'.''H one, entirely lack
ing in difficu "apt near the green
which was -. fronted on the north
and south by t,."S.
Gradually ii was pointed out that
it was too easy; that the absence or
hazards made it so simple the secur-
ing Of a by ordinary players made
1t the easiest hole on the course. so
last year the golf committee put in
a hazard at the left of the green
under the sheltering shade Of a group
of trees where it would not be seen
from the club porch. But that was
not enough, for the hole still was an
easy affair.
A few weeks ago a deep bunker was
placed at the right edge Of the fair
way, about 165 yards from the tee, to
catch sliced or pushed shot. while
another trap was put in SO yards from
the tee to catch the topped ball. And
now the golf committee plans to pull
the traps up around the green in
closer to the putting surface to make
the man who tries for the green from
the tee be little more accurate with
his shot. All in the name Of better
golf.
And at the same time the criticism
OF those who want the stretch Of turf
protected unbroken have their answer,
for the constructors Of the hazards
have so faced them that they can be

NEW YORK, November 2S.-There
will be no clash of dates to worry the
golfing elite Of America and Great
Britain when the niblick wtelders OF
the two nations unSheaf their clubs
for the tournament play of 1928.
With the British features already
fixed for the month of May, the United
States Golf Association has an.
bounced that the American open cham
pionship would be played over the
Olympia Fields course south OF Chi
cago on June 81. % and 23. Dis
trict qualifying rounds will be staged
on June II.
With determination Of the dates
for the outstanding seasonal tourna-

the amateur season would be enliven.
ed by the invitation of all members
Of the British Walker Cup team to
compete for the gold mashie cham
pionship on T. Suffern Tailer's ocean
links at Newport, f. l., the first week
in September.
The British stars are scheduled to
compete for the Walker Cup team

provide reserve strength so es-
sential.
If the quest Marshall now
is making proves successful
Washington undoubtedly will
have a formidable combination
on the floor before the second
section of the schedule gets
under way, but it will be little
short of a miracle if it doesn't
finish in the ruck in the first
half of the schedule il the
other six clubs in the loop flash
form comparable to that dis
played by the Rochesterites
here.
The primary requisite for a
basket bali winner is the ability
to net the ball. On those occa-
sions in both games that the
Palacians were within reasonable
scoring distance they missed the
target by unusually wide margins
time after time. Even on free
tosses their aim was faulty to a
degree.
This was due not alone to in
sufficient tuning up after months
OF absence from the court, but to
the same lack of general physical
condition that precluded the sharp
cutting that matches the "snow-
birds" and enabled the invaders on
numerous occasions to dribble half
the length of the floor for shots
at the rim with no winded de-
lenders within yards of them.
With an experienced man to
Jump center, a forward to pair
with Saunders, who isn't try
ing to navigate with some Is
pounds of superfIuous flesh,
and a running mate for Ken
nedy at guard who can travel
40 minutes at top speed with
out falling victim to. the five
foul rule, the Washington club
may have something pertinent
to say about where the basket
ball world series is played.
To that end Washington
fans can be assured Magnate
Marshall will do no end of try
ing. He's that kind of guy.

And the game was won with the
great Caldwell playing for Yale, a
difficult thing to laugh off.
Thanksgiving day the team will

city. the University of Alabama being
the opponent. .'Bama has not been

Bulldogs do not take this game seri-
ouSlv they may find themselves in

Must Respect Alabama.
But it looks as though Georgia
should get by all right If she enters
the game with the idea that real
contest is impending. Then on
December 3 comes a real classic,
Georgia versus Georgia Tech, un.
beaten in the South.
In the days when Gen. Wood was
teaching at Georgia Tech and in sue
ceeding years the Bulldogs would
come down to Atlanta or the Yellow
Jackets would go to Athens and re-
ceive regular trouncings. But at
length John Heisman came to Atlanta
and Tech stock jumped to the skies.
SO ardent was the enthusiasm Of the
partisans of the two Georgia institu-
tions that at length. in the interest
Of law and order, 1t was deemed wise
that relations be severed.
Two years ago influential alumni
of the two seats Of learning came to
the conclusion that sport as sport
had reached a status in Georgia where
a fine, wholesome rivalry on the field
and a sportsmanlike attitude in the
stands could confidently be looked for
in gridiron contests between Georgia
and Georgia Tech. So the teams be-
gan to play foot ball again and
nothing has occurred to cause the
slightest regret over the resumption
of competition.
The forthcoming game will see
Atlanta in swirl Of the sharpest
rivalry it has ever known. Partisan
feeling will find expression in a
variety Of ways. But above all will
be the prevailing conviction that the
game itself, its preservation as a fine.
high spirited, traditional contest, ir.
respective of the winner and the
loser, are the things that really count.

r vNLESS Owner George
Marshall rounds up some
new talent in short order
~ Washington fans who
find professional basket ball a
dish to their liking will have little
TO enthuse over.
After being decisively outplayed
in their inaugural contest. al
though the wind-up found them
trailing by only five points. it was
demonstrated in their second set
TO with Rochester that they were
absolutely outclassed, more so
probably than the 5l-to-20 score
would indicate.
Fundamentals are as important
in basket ball as they are in foot
ball and the showing of the Pal
ace club in its two appearances
here proved that not even the
groundwork for successful conf
bination had been laid, for with
the possible exception OF two men
the local regulars" show a
notable lack of condition, a not
surprising fact when it is consid-
cred that only two weeks were
devoted to preliminary training.
Ray Kennedy's attainments
as a tactician are too well es-
tablished to blame faulty
coaching for the present plight
of the PaIacians. The mana
ger-captain-guard is as thor
oughly grounded in strategy as
anv courtman now in the game.
Kennedy also possesses the
faculty of intoxicating it in
Others, but all the teaching
skill i'm the world would avail
little with the Washington
squad as at present consti-
tuted.
Owner Marshall's preseason
lineup differed greatly from that
which represented the Capital in
the opening games, his Original
plans having gone awry through
no fault of his own. He is under
stood to be making desperate Ell

II you think there is little to the
matter Of following through in
playing your wood shots, If you
think this talk about getting your
weight into the shot is all bosh,
take glance at the drawing above
of George Duncan, former British
open champion, finishing his drive.
Duncan believes in putting every
ounce Of his weight into this shot.
just as he believes in sweeping
through or, to put it better, throw
ing the head of the club into the
ball.
Duncan is by no means an abb
normal sWinger. His club Is taken
just beyond the horizontal on the
back swing, and he hits down into
the ball to give it low trajectory
with tremendous power in his
wrists. SO accelerated Is his swing
at contact that he follows on
through with his body. checking
any pronounced movement by brac-
ing himself with his left leg.
That left leg check, so pro-
nounced in the sketch, is the brace
OF every driver who hits hard.
