more aih1cult--for Babe Ruth to stand
at the plate before 10000 fans and
watch one Of Lefty Groves fast shoots
tearing up on the inside. or Johnny
Farrell facing q 2-foot putt with a pos
sible 1000 standing from IS to 100 feet
away?
The ball that the Babe would be
expected to ride would be coming at
high speed, with a hook on it, while
Johnny's ball would be perfectly mo-
tionless. Yet on Babes ball there might
hinge a championship and thousands
OF dollars in the pockets of IS profes-
sional players. On Farrell's bail would
at best hang championship with his
own individual pocket at stake.
The fans at a ball game pay
good money to see 1t, and should (as
they do) be allowed to scream their
heads Off The fan at a champion
ship golf match also pays plenty, so
why must he be oStraciZed II he
takes a deep breath?
What has caused the condition that
demands silence in golf and not in any
other sports, many of which are much
more dif1cult? Don't you think it's
about time that q movement Is started
to get over that ninny idea?
Nerves and temperament have no
place IN the professional players make
up. He should have to take his chances
on noise or anything else that comes
from the boys who pay the freight"
Noise seems to have been associ-
Ated with our national pastirne and
the manly art Of modifled murder
since the beginning of things, just
as silence has been associated with
. chess and golf. And when one Is
used TO noise one must have his
noise, just as one used to silence
must have plenty Of It.
There was the case of Ort Wells, the
hermit Of Michigan boulevard. who
dwelis for the greater part of the time
al the Chicago Athletic Club. All day
long the noise OF Chicago traffic soothes
his ears. At night he hears the petulant
pop OF the machine guns Of the rack
eteers, which starts as soon as the
rlVet1ng machines check of for the day.
Those accustomed sounds lure the spirit
OF Mr.. Wells to the state of amiable
calm for which he is noted,
Last Winter MIR. Wells repaired to
Belleair. Fla. for q change. Friends
noted that he kept his light burning
Tor the firSt two nights. On the
third night some of them entered
his room to investigate. Mr.. Wells,
clad for slumber, was wide awake
and haggard of countenance.
i cannot Sleep" he complained. "It's
the confounded noise"
What noise?" demanded his friends,
for the night was as still as the crowd
at Chicago when Tunney was dropped
IN the seventh round. At that moment
a soft warbling from mockingbird out
side the window was heard.
That's the noise" said Mr.. Wells.
I'm going to get shotgun and shoot
that damned crow in the morning.
Then maybe I will get chance to
sleep"
