 No player on the club is for sale and there are at least three, Red Lucas, Hughey Critz and Swanson, the new outfield star, who could not be bought for any price. When William Wrigley, Jr., asked me to put price on Lucas, I just laugh ed. Lucas is the greatest pitcher in the league. There is no reason why we can't put baseball back on it's feet in Cincinnati"

 The death of Miller Huggins de- prived the Yankees of pilot who could have held his job as long as he wished but internal warfare, as well as demands for improvement, contributed to most of the other changes in leadership that have been effected or are about to be.

 A poor duffer politely went up and held the pin for his partner who was in the trap short Of the Sreen-and see what happened Now. what is the rule? What's the penalty, if any-and who receives it?
 The rulings are rather involved. hut this: "In stroke competition. when . ball lying within 20 yards (s0 feet) of the hole is played. and strikes, or is stopped by the nag stick or the person standing at the hole. the penalty shall be two strokes. In match play. the penalty is the loss of the hole. If the dis tance is greater than 20 yards there shall be no penalty"
 If the ball hits your caddy or your partner in match play the penalty stands. but If 1t should hit your opponents caddy that is just a rub of the green. The reason for this is that it is within the realm of possibility that your caddy might purposeiy allow himself to be hit to cause the ball to stop near the pin.
 The notifications Of the rule make 1t seem rather involved and hard to understand. but it should be rather easy to remember the simple rule. It means if the ball hits the nag stick from within 20 yards there is . penalty of two strokes in medal play and loss of the hole in match play.
 If you are called upon to make an explosion shot within 20 yards of the pin. send the caddy up to take the pin out and then have him get of the green again and out of the way. % that if the ball is hit too hard and goes sailing across the green there will be no one standing by the pin to get hit.
