pitching over q bunker or other OBJ
struction, when I could not stop the
shot with another club without play
ing q very delicate stroke. The other
is a heavy lie from which know the
bali will take an abnormal amount Of
roll.
OF course, the lie Is always a cir
cumstance of importance when one is
deciding how much roll to expect. The
proper order Of procedure is to visual
ize the shot. to determine where the
pitch must drop and how much roll it
should have. Then to select the club
and attempt the swing which will pre-
duce this result. Always favor a
straightforward shot, but go to a more
lofted club only when the necessity for
stopping the ball makes it necessary.

indoor season during the past Win
ter, running short distances where
the start is the all-important thing,
enables Metcalfe to develop more
speed and skill In getting away rap
idly with the gun. If he can learn
to start with the same skill as To-
Ian, Simpson or Wykoff, no runner
in the world can hope to beat him
in either the 100 or 200 yard dashes.
Con Jennings, Marquette's track
coach, believes Metcalfe has go

don't laugh at that prediction" de-
clared Jennings. It has been esti-
mated that Metcalfe can step the
century In 8.5, using running start,
but that has no bearing on his speed
from a standing start.
At the moment Metcalfe holds q

garded as the speediest Of the indoor
wind-burners before Metcalfe turned
him back.
Metcalfe's highest ambition is to
qualify for the United States Olym-
pic team in 1896. His races with
Tolan in the 1892 Olympic at Los
Angeles were so close that many
spectators still are dizzy from the
hairline finishes in both the 100
and 200 meter sprints. The Mar
quette boy still has another year OF
collegiate competition coming, so
that by 1896 he will have been out
Of school only two seasons and still
q youngster in years.
A brief resume Of Metcalfe's best
performances at many distances are
adequate proof that he may achieve
his hope Of breaking the world rec
ord for both the 100 and 220 yard
dashes. He made the 40-yard dash
in 4.3; so yards, in 5.3; so yards, in

~ AVE SUTHERLAND, formerly
professional at st. Louis
club, now of Burbank, Calf,
brings up a point concerning
the average golfer.
What do you think Of the average
players use of the niblick2" asks Dave.
MY observation Is that it is used far
too much when the front Of the green
is wide open and there is no real need
for it."
Certainly there are a number of
times when the average golfer, or any
kind of a golfer for that matter, can
save strokes by playing the right club
thought should always be to select the
club that Is easiest to use, with which
the shot can be played, and then to
play the simplest stroke possible.
IT is a mistake to attempt a steep
i pitch with backspin when there
Is ample room for a normal shot.
The more spectacular shot may be more
satisfying when it comes of, but the
average Of resa,ts will not be so good.
Every requirement of timing. control
and precision which we add tells in the
long run against consistently good
performance.
Normally, it is not so easy to play
niblick as 1t is some club with less
loft-at least, until the pitch becomes
very short and the necessity for pitch
ing is definite. When the ball must be
played over bunker or other hazard
1t is easier to play a straightforward
shot with a niblick than to bring of a
trick effort with another club. But the
pitch over bunker is certainly more
difficult than an ordinary pitch and
run to wide-open green. The man
who pitches up to the hole all the
time, might just as well have a bunker
in front of him. He does not know
how to take advantage Of his better
position.
THERE are two circumstances which

EARLY in the Spring when the
- golfer in the northern zone
goes out to play he has little
trouble getting shots with little roll.
The ground is soft, the grass Is
tender and luscious. His chief trou-
BILE is to get roll.
Before long, though, things will
be different. Time after time he'll
stick the ball on the green only to
see 1t go bouncing over. So now
will be a good time for him to
practice on his pitch shots. It's
something that the average golfer,
North or South, can pay q lot Of
attention to at all times.
First thing to visualize is the
manner in which you should hit
the ball. Because this operation

WILLIE DoAK started out to
w pitch in semi-pro ranks in
Pittsburgh back in 1909; and
now you will find him down In
Bradenton, Fla, still throwing ball
occasionally.
The Florida boom hastened Doak's
retirement from the majors. He
went into the real estate business
down there and for while pros
pered so well that base ball looked
like q waste of time to him. When
the bubble burst Willie tried to come
back, but 1t was too late.
OF course, you remember Doak
with the Brooklyn club. The Dodg-
ers got Willie from the Cardinals,
with whom he landed in 1918 from
Akron. He had had trial with
Cincinnati.
Doak's big year was 1914, in which
he had an earned run average of
1.72, with 10 won and lost.
Willie was one of those old-fash-

players, including all the leading stars
Of the game, had formally signified their
intention Of competing when the dead

Oficials Of the United States Golf As
ISOLATION indicated that later entries
also might be accepted, but even so, the
total number was expected to fall short,
perhaps by nearly 200. Of the 1.012 total
last year.
Except for the 80 players exempted
by reason of their showing in the 1882
open, at Flushing, N Y, all contestants
will have to take their chances In the
sectional qualifying round, to be played
country Monday. May IS.
THE exempt list includes the British
i and American Open champion,
Gene Sarazen. and seven of his
American Ryder Cup teammates as well
as many other leading stars, but there
still remain a number of top-flight
golfers who will be forced to undergo
the 36-hole qualifying test Among
these are Horton Smith, ninth member
of the Ryder Cup team; AL and Abe
Espinosa, Johnny Kolden, Joe Turnesa,
Jim Barnes, AL Watrous, Bill Mehl-
horn, Johnny Farrell, Willie Macfar-

Sarazen and his Ryder Cup mates,
Walter Hagen. Leo Diegel, Olin Dutra,
Paul Runyan, Denny Shute, Craig Wood

championship proper, to be played at
Chicago, June 8, 9 and 10.

the ball, buffers have trouble with 1t.
When Gene Sarazen pitches, his
clubhead meets the turf and the
ball at the same time. But the
swing is downward. So the ball
skids up the clubface, acquiring both
loft and backspin.
Hit too low and you take turf
before you hit the ball, which Is
productive, of course, of failure.
Hit too high and you get q low
ball with not much carry and q lot
Of roll.
