amount Of stuff on the ball, but re-
gardless, the first pitch made Armour
enc up with his drive into the right

The next pitch Armour missed and
he missed exactly 25 in a row, with
out making SO much as even a foul
before deciding that he had enough
that he was all wrong about it being
easier to hit a baseball than gol1
ball
I might add that the ball player
who had never played golf, made 3
much better showing than did Armour
even though he did break two goll
clubs in taking his Is swings.
However, there are lot of bal
players who insist it is far easier to
accurately hit a baseball than connect

TEST IN HITTING BALLS

Pitcher Carl Mays of the Cincinnati
Reds told me the story of the test and
the result. The players and golfers
met at the Polo grounds to decide the
issue. Armour was to do the batting
against the pitching of Carl Mays. He
had insisted it was no great trick to
hit big league pitching.
Armour tried out about SO bats be-
fore he got one that suited his fancy
as to size and weight In the mean
time, Mays was slowly warming UP
for the test.
When Mays announced he was all
set for the experiment, Armour step
ped into the batter's box. Armour had
made up his mind that he would swing

consequences.

CHAMP LIKES BAsEBALL

Tommy Armour, national open golf
champion, like Walter Hagen, who has
held that title as well as numerous
others, is a great baseball fan. In
the summer when Armour isn't on the
links you can find him at the ball
game.
Naturally, Tommy knows most of
the stars of baseball intimately Since
Florida has been the mecca for ball
players and golfers for five or six
years, the members of the two pro-
fessionS, big league ball players and
golfers, have gotten to be very
chummy.
Likewise. it is true that ball players
like golf and prefer playing the game
to watching it, Some of the ball
players have become mighty proficient
at their golf.
At fanfest last summer made up
of golfers and ball players, the argu-
ment arose as to which was the more
difficult to hit, golf ball or baseball.
