Limit on Clubs Suggested.


THE governing factors behind the
effectiveness Of the golfers main
weapon-the ball he uses-are
weight and size. The U. 8. q. A. has
reached happy compromise in both
these matters, If the records OF tho
scoring in championships over the last
two years are any criterion.
Even in the days when Bob
Jones was winning open cham
pi0nShips with scores Of 292 with
the old rabbit ball, the scoring
was not as consistently fast As IL
- today with larger and lighter
ball.
The old ball could be driven farther,
but it had the bad habit of rolling into
embarrassing spots. From the iron
clubs it could not be controlled as can
the ball of today. 1t may have been Q
better putting ball, but the present
standard ball seems to suit the cham.
pions of today. Certainly they are put.
ting as well as they ever did.
Under oil conditions OF Dind
and weather, of tairtCdy and put
ting green, the present standard
golf ball Is the finest scoring in
strument eper depised And noaD,
ii the ntoguls could find iDdy to
limit the number of golf clubs to
fpe irons and couple of ,Ooods,

concerned. ,Oould remain tdirly
stationary
The latest thing on the market Is .
new steel shaft for golf clubs. called
the "limbershaft," which is obtainable
in most of the standard brands Of
cubs This shaft has no torsion. but
has plenty of whip, placed up right
under the grip, where the throwing
power of the club-head really gets in
its dirty work. With these shafts, even
though the carry of the ball is hardly
any longer than with the old stif
shaft, more run can be obtained.

the eighteenth green and the tenth tee.
The fine golf course Of the
Indian Spring Club, one Of the
few courses which never has been
changed in any degree since It
was first put in play, is destined
to come in for a change or two,
under the plans for improvement
as laid down by Tom Moore, pres
ident of the club.
The holes to be changed are the fif-
teenth and seventh, and although the
changes have not yet been fully out
lined it is understood the seventh will
be made longer to become real three
shot hole and the fairway at the nj
teenth will be improved. But 1t IS
around the club house that the major
improvements will take place, and
when the builders finish with the new
club house, Indian Spring Is destined
to have one Of the finest golf plants in
this section Of the land.

United States Golf As
ISOLATION has succeeded IN
i its plan to shorten the
length of the standard golf
ball and cut down on the increas-
ing expenditures on goh course
construction necessary 10 keep
pace with the increased length Of
the ball.
The three-year fight Of the
association to bring into being a
real standard ball which is ca
pable Of being driven just so far
and no farther under all condi-
tions, has been won and today
some 5,O00,0OO golfers in the
United States have a golf ball
which can be handled better than
either the old rabbit BALI of be-
loved memory Ito some) or the
balloon ball of 1881.
The present ball is not as long on
fast ground as the rabbit ball, nor is it
as short as the balloon ball. It Is a
happy compromise that appears to have
settled once and for all the need for
expensive experimenting with golf
balls, In 30 far as size and weight are
concerned.
Best Sphere Yet Devised.
TINE present standard golf ball
weighs 1.62 ounces, and Is 1853
inches in diameter. BY every
count and by any standard of scoring
or shot-making it is, for all around
purposes, the finest golf bali ever
standardized by the powers that rule
the game.
There is only one way the golf
ball may be changed again, unless
complete reversal Of standards
comes before the U. S. G. A., and
that will not come about unless
manufacturers 90 further than
they have gone 20 far.
1t could be done by winding the
rubber threads tighter around the core
to increase tension. or by so thinning
the balata cover that the power applied
length can be obtained. The latter
course is not at all likely, for there Is
q definite limit rs to the thickness Of
the cover
If the manufacturers turn out q golf
ball with too thin cover (as they may
do to gain increased distance) the
slightest mishit will cut through the
cover and ruin that ball for future
play The ball will not be durable
enough and except for the experts and
men who do not care how much money
they spend ON golf balls, it will not be
popular, even at present lowered price&
The length OF the ball also may
be increased by putting more ten-
sion on the rubber iGinding, but
this also mill result in lo1pered
durability by reason OF the fact
that the coper Ipll cut more
readily, so there is q limit to this
means OF getting more kick in the
ball.

Vines Wins With Gledhill.

Y ZINES, winner OF the past two New
v port Journeys, salvaged some of his
casino prestige when he and Keith
Gledhill, with whom he shares the ma
tional doubles title, managed to out
wear George Lott, who helped give the
United States its only Davis Cup point,
and lanky Lester Stoefen Of Los An
geles, for a 60, 8-6, 17-19. 6-3 win
in the three hour doubles final.
It was the victors' third straight sue
cess in that competition.
Weather and court conditions wee
not too good for the doubles final an
much worse for the morning singles
play. The court was soaked from a
night OF rain and a heavy fog was
sweeping in from the harbor when
Shields and Allison started play
Shields shots refused to work under
such wretched conditions and he ap-
peared doomed to a speedy defeat when
he lost five of his first six services and
trailed for II games.
Allison had the first set and Al
lead in the second when Shields. after
much experimenting, hit upon an as
sortment of strokes that would obey
him on the soggy court. Then he swept
on to win.
The victor finished the match with a
total Of SO placements and service
aces against 80 and for Allison.
Both just piled up errors, Shields total
ing 105 to 108 for Allison.

Rain Mars Doubles Play.

The defeat was the third title set
back Allison has suffered on the CAST
nos famous grandstand court in four
years. He was Vines runner-up last
year and in 1880 he finished second to
Bill Tilden.
Few Of the doubles teams got any
worthwhile seasoning for next weeks
national championships at Brookline.
The Casino team play was rained on
three days and several strong teams,
including Shields and Parker and Alli-
son and John Van Ryn, who played
Davis Cup doubles with Lott defaulted
to break the jam that threatened to
tie up the tourney until tomorrow.

Coiffures With Bangs.

TINE short, boyish bob has gone,
but the pendulum Of fashion
has not-at least, not yet
II swung to the opposite extreme
OF long, thick hair. Long bobs
hold the center Of the stage now and
they may be dressed in variety OF
interesting ways.

waved coiffures with curled ends and

smooth and sleek over the crown, BACK
and sides of the head. The ends Of
hair are turned up In a small roll that
runs from the level of the cheek bone
on one side all around the back OF the
head to the other side. Below this roll
at the center back are several small
rolls that cluster on the nape OF the
neck. There is thin fringe OF wispy
curls on the left side Of the forehead.
This ARRANGEMENT is becoming to the
girl with slender face and high fore
head.
Another pretty way to arrange the
long bob is to comb the hair straight
back from the face. OF course, the
girl with high, marrow forehead can
not attempt this style. When the brow

Of hair are rolled up so that just the
lobe of the ear shows beneath. A series
Of similar small rolls climbs up the
same side of the head to the crown,
giving the effect of coronet. On
the left side there are also rolls, but
these are placed low, the lowest lying
on the neck. On the left side OF the
forehead are few thin. fiat curls.
These thin fringes or bangs are q
boon to women with high foreheads.
They also lend O certain gracefulness
and femininity to coiffures that might
otherwise be too severe, and they make
plain little hats more becoming.
Another good point about modern
bangs Is that they may be used by
girls with broad faces who could not
possibly wear the old-fashioned, thick,
straight bangs The modern bangs are
kept on one side of the forehead and
they are thin enough to let the brow
show between their delicate curves. SO
that they do not make the wide face
seem shorter.
A coiffure that illustrates this value
OF bangs may be made with a high
side part on the right. The hai. on
the left Of the part is combed dag

wave is put in above the temple, which
dips down toward the end Of the left

Everyday Psychology
There's q Reason.
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Psychology, in the everyday sense OF
the word, is list Of the reasons why
people do what they do. When you
have satisfied yourself in any given
case, you have found the so-called psy-
chology of the so-called situation.
As things go in this world, situations
are often sharper than people. That's
why some people make the same mis-
take time after time. You may not like
to admit it, but your real competitors
are those who are able to keep their
reasons hidden. Ambassadors call 1t
diplomacy. Politicians call it strategy.
What are the reasons OF men in the
order of their Importance? Here you
may make almost any list you like and
feel sure that no cne is likely to refute
it successfully. The following list Is
suggested:
/. To be financially independent.
2. To live long-if possible, forever.
3. To gain power and use 1t.
This Is sort of physiological triun-
virate. Under one of these three you
may class every reason for everything
that people do.
