Comments on Two Friends Who

(NY JlGGER)

Last week We played with two men who are quite out of the or- dinary run of average golfers. Each represents, in his own separate way. a distinct illustration of what many of us crave. This is progress. quick improvement in his golf game and freedom from mental obstacles that tend to make work out Of what should be play and recreation.
 The first case was that of . man in late middle age. A man with athletic tendencies. but one who hai exercised in other fields than on goli courses until two months ago. Be fore August the royal and ancient game held no appeal for him.
 Then he took up golf. He collect ed from obliging friends . varied collection of clubs. some of which did not fit him at all. But he over came that handicap with q knaci for the game. That coupled with { perfect golting temperament. made hum quite g fair player in a shor' time.

 some lent him . couple of goot irons and from then on the novice'l improvement was noticeable. H. played them as though he had uset the clubs for years. He was conten to allow each club to do its appoint ed duty and he did not strain him self trying to get zoo yards with { midiron. In other words he did no press" He swung easily into ever, shot. A feat many of us have no yet learned to do. That man, witt set of clubs adapted to him, an

on the putting green has he depart ed from the profeasional style. But with his butter he gets such good results that his form cannot be criticised.
 Full of pep and confidence in his business and social life this man has carried over into his golf the same characteristics. He plays off from tho tee and fairway with perfect abandon. Sometimes his shots 90 on the line but in such cases hs appears to feel confident that he will recover position and distance on his next shot. But whether or not he scores par on . hole he has the satisfaction of we'll played shots. and the zest with which he plays makes golf any thing but work for him.
 Not only does his method of play add to his own enjoyment but 1t also provides a delight for his partner and commands respect from his op- ponents. If that man had time to devote to the game it would not be long before he rated 2 low handicap and the best players in his club would have to extend themselves to beat him in match play.
 It ts more common to run across such carefree players among the younger generation than in the ranks of the veterans. Nothing Seta lon their nerves, they gre not too serious about the game and they hit the ball without restraint. Fear does not grip them in its clutches. When we See such a golfer in ac' ton We wonder if most of us could not play a better game by throwing to the winds some of our inhibited caution and let ourselves 50 into | more free and easy game. Along with our anxiety to look up to set where the ball is going are we mol prone to be too careful in making the stroke:
 Many of us have tried abou everything else we ever read o heard abou: to improve our gam' and still the hoped for improvement has not arrived. Why not take , lesson from the youngsters. who ar initiating the pros. and go in for { whirl at the free and easy style? A least 1t would add . thrill to tn game even if 1t did not bring bet ter results immediately In the lonl run We suspect that getting out of 1 cramped style wouldn't hurt U much but 1t. at least. would give u the appearance of playing rathe than presenting us as men workin at the divot digger's trade.

 However even with the famous ''Daxzler" in the lineup tho Robins were eliminated as pennant con- tenders by the New York Giants just two days before the close of the 19e4 season. That is as near as Vance has gotten to worlds series, as a player.
 Since joining the Robins. Vance has been the most capable perfor- mer on the mound for Manager Robertson. Vance won IS games and lost 12 in his first year. the season of 1922. The previous year he was known as the strike-out king of the Minors" with a record of 163 strike-outs.

Ir 1924, he was at the peak of hii career. winning 2S games, losing six and striking out 262 batters. Fol the season. Vance allowed an aver age of only 2.l6 earned runs pei game in 35 games.
 Following the 1924 season, hi! record, while not the best, compares favora bly, with the leading hurler' in the league. In 1925. Vance wol 22 games and lost nine for the low ly Robins. That year Vance pitched the only no-hit game of the seasol on Sept. 13. against the Philadelphia Phillies.
