Members of the Army. Navy and
Marine Corps Country Club have been
asked to vote on a proposal to merge
the service country club, located over
in Arlington County with the Army
and Navy Club, which long has been
the rallying point for service officers in
Washington. At the same time the
proposal for merger, which has been
Endorsed by the officials of the country
club, has been laid before the govern
ing board of the Army and Navy Club.
From a strictly outside viewpoint, and
knowing little of the intricacies of
financing and property transfers, men,
berShip equivalents and other matters
that necessarily must enter into any
amalgamation, it would seem that such
a merger would be a highly desirable
thing for both clubs. Probably there
are many arguments against it on both
sides of the picture. But to the out
slider 1t would seem anomalous If the
two clubs did not get together at least on
green's fee basis for golf purposes.
The Army, Navy and Marine Corps
Country Club today is very much
going proposition, Is on a firm and
sound financial basis and Is certain to
be one Of the leading clubs about the

NEW YORK, November QP).-The
Southern Pacific Association of the

its application for the national A. A. U.

The coast associations formal applt-

the A. A. U. convention at st. Louis
November II, 10 and 10.
The Coliseum at Los Angeles, in
which the championships were to be
held, is to undergo alterations for the
Olympic games in 1882 and the work,
which has Just started, will not be

The withdrawal of Los Angeles leaves

Hip Slide Pose
By Cooper, Jones
BY SOL METZGER.

While golfers differ in the way
they take back their clubs, the
dominant idea in hitting is to sweep
the clubhead through the ball and
on out toward the hole. In short,
they force the clubhead to pass
through the ball on straight line
while its face is at right angles to
that line.
To make this possible the hips
must slide laterally to the left with
the swing and on a line paralleling
the direction line. Unless the hips
so act 1t is almost impossible to hit

NOFFICIAL batting averages
and it is q safe bet that the
official averages will tell the
~ same story-show that the all
star outfield in the American
League would be composed of Al Sim
mons of Philadelphia, Heinie Manush
of St Louis and Bob Fothergill of De-
troit. Babe Ruth would serve as SUD-
stitute, unless one is so particular as
to insist that he be a regular on the
all-star outfield because he has played
20 more games than Fotherglll.
AS a matter of fact, there is no reason
to think that Fothergill'S batting aver
age would have suffered any had he
played in more games. He is not that
kind of a batter. The farther he goes
the better he is. He has grit ana de-
termination.
More Than Homers Needed.
OF course, to set against that, Babe
Ruth hits many home runs; but AFTER
all they will not win games unless
there are other factors to help out.
In the National League. by the same
process, the all-star outf1eld would be
made up of Babe Herman of Brooklyn,
Riggs Stephenson of Chicago and Kiki
Of the American League trio runs about
371 combined and that of the Ma
tional League boys, about 1857.
On the National League all-star out
field, Chuck Klein of Philadelphia
might be retained as substitute, to
serve as the home-run hitter for the
National League, as Babe Ruth is for
the American League.
The utility men balance fairly well.
A. L. Fielders Better.
When it come to fielding, the Ameri-
can League all-star trio are better than
the National League outfit. Manush
has a weakness for long drives, and
Fothergill, bulky as he is, can cover
the ground ably.
The combined value OF Simmons,
Manush and Fothergill is around $780,
600. They might even bring more. This
is a better price, however, than would
be paid for the National League out
field.
Cuyler is the best fielder of the Ma
tional League trio Herman Is erratic.
He is a fine batter, but his fielding and
base running are grotesque. Stephen
son is a made-over infelder who has
improved wonderfully and does well.
His weakness is his inability to back
up for long hit. as natural out
fielder does. 1t hurt him in the world
series. A fast, sure man would have
held Jimmy Dykes fly in that famous
seventh inning when the Athletics
scored their 10 runs.

two men have to be covered. Looks
like they'll take all the available
Georgetown backs with them and
away from the defensive area to the
right.
Note how end No. comes around
and rushes into this vacated area.
AS passer No. is protected by his
two backs it's no trouble at all for
him to shoot the ball to No. 8. If
the latter is not covered by some
other player than is usually assigned
to him he's off for long run and
