rs YEARS OF BAN JOHNSON


This attempted strike OF the players,
which took place In 1914 when the
Eastern teams OF the National League
were in the West and the Western
teams OF the American League we're in
the East. was looked upon with Joy by
the Federal League. The Outlaw
league had been organized In 1918 by
some capitalists and Just plain pro-
moters, who thought they would raid
big league teams to the limit. They
had been lured into base ball by the
huge receipts of the world series In
1912. failing to recognize that the re-
ceiptS for daily games fall far below
the gate figures for such a series.
The Federal League promoters gath
cred an idea that everything In base
ball was gold They used the world
series as basis for their projects and
acted accordingly. From the moment
that they undertook to get their outlaw
league under way they began to prey
on the players of the two major leagues.
In fight of this character Ban john
son showed to advantage. He had ex-
cellent inside information of what was

MONRO HUNTER, tall gen.
tleman, who grew up amid the
hills and braes of Scotland. is
~ the new professional at the In
dian Spring Golf Club. Hunter.
who is now with the Tripoli Country
Club Of Milwaukee, was chosen TO I'LL
the berth vacated a few days ago by
Eddie Towns by the board of governors
Of the club, meeting last night. He
will take over his new post on April !.
Five times amateur champion OF the
province of Alberta, Canada, Hunter
learned his game on the courses around
the old university town OF Edinburgh,
Scotland. growing up with many of the
Scottish professionals who now hold
down berths at clubs in the United
States He was a member of several
clubs in and near Edinburgh, but play
ed largely at Lundin links. He came to
this continent lS years ago. settling in
Alberta, where he became a star anna
teur player Of the province. Six years
ago he turned professional and located
with the Milwaukee Country Club, later
going with the Tripoli Country Club.
He was chosen to fill the Indian Spring
berth from group of applicants num-
bering more than 100, among whom
were several nationally prominent
golfers.
Standing 6 feet 5i2 inches, Hunter
looks as If he might drive a golf ball an
astounding distance. He has amassed
quite reputation as a long hitter In
the West, although he does not spe-
cialize in golf playing preferring TO give
his time TO instruction, on which he has
a unique theory. Hunter entered the
long driving contest at the Western
open at Calumet, Chicago. In 1924. and
won 1t against such lengthy hitters as
Bill Mehlhorn and other noted sluggers.
His record tee shot was 27l yards,
driven into high wind In 1922, when
the American open was played at Sko-
kie. Hunter drove ball 420 yards. He
is married and has three children. His
l9-year -old son also is a golfer and a
noted amateur radio expert. The new
professional at Indian Spring Is ii
years OF age
Hunter has a theory with regard TO
the teachings Of golf that Is at variance
with all the accepted conceptions OF the
physical action in striking a golf ball.
He claims the wrists and the wrist snap
have very little TO do with distance. In
stead he claims the roll or turn of the
wrists Is one Of the factors that deter
mine distance and that the twist and
thrust OF the body Is the main factor.
His views on this matter contrast sharp
iy with those Of Bob Jones and Tommy
Armour. two Of the reigning champions,
who contend that the wrist snap is
essential 10 great distance. although they
also admit the roll Of the wrist is essen
tisl, Bob Barnett Of Chevy Chase holds
that the wrist plays major part In OBJ
tain.ng distance. and 1t probably would

1t is only the fighting men who are
