estimable white haired

THAT estimable white haired
gentleman of the base ball
trade, Clark Calvin Griffith
the same Griff who is in the
throes of building up another pennant
winner for the National Capital, is all
cut up about his golf game.
Leaving his old cronies at the Co.
lumbia Country Club, deserting the
old crowd with whom he played for
many years, passing up opportunities
for many deuces which pay off at the
rate of a buck a head, Griff is confin-
ing his links activities these days to
occasional forays over the Indian
Spring course.
His companion most frequently is
Billy Smith. assistant secretary and
chief dispenser of hot dogs at the ball
park But if Griff has left Columbia
in the lurch, think of the gap he has
left untitled in the life of James E.
(Pop) Baines, his companion on
golf excursions for dozen years and
more.
Baines and Griffith have played
countless games of golf from the
tropics to New England. Pop" con-
tinues to play at Columbia The old
days when Ed Fynon. Griffith, Baines
and Billy Smith used to play almost
every nice afternoon at Columbia
with all of 'em taking a cut at deuce
en- the short holes at so much per,
are no more. Eynon has dropped out
Of the game; Griffith has practically
stopped playing.
Pappy Griffith. let it be known, is
nobody's easy mark on the golf course
He can push back those bushy eye
brows and gaze down the line of a
putt as accurately as any man his age
around Washington. Many times he
has broken 80 at Columbia, where his
normal score in the old days ranged
between 81 and "a. You could lay II
on the line any time he started and
! bet he wouldn't exceed "a. he was that
steady. And could be putt? Griffith
is one Of the finest putters we ever
have seen. He knocks the ball from
the tee with an abbreviated base ball

maximum distance, but propels the
ball straight down the alley. Griff

confident was the backing for the
latter that the bookies were quoting
him against the field when the start

rushed Little Dan to the fore, as is
his custom, and for almost three miles
it seemed the chestnut sun of Dan 4th

Sieve Lune within striking distance

two horses. the Durants' Dan Rock and

NNAPOLIS, November 10
" With the game against Pitts
n burgh, one of the high points
in its foot ball season, just be-
fore it, Navy is in fine physical shape
and eager for the fray.
The team and its coaches cannot be
said to be confident Of success, but
they do feel that it is possible to fight
through to victory. The coaches be-
lieve the Navy has a good team this
year, and the players, without brag-
gadoccio, think so. too.
The feeling here Is that Pittsburgh
has a greater uniformity of power and
general playing ability, and will score,
but that Navy. at its best, can deliver
an attack that will result in a larger
score. To do this, however it must
show a decidedly superior attack than
in the Notre Dame game.

About Grass by Trap.

QUESTION: With the players
~ ball lying in the long grass
which skirts sand trap and
usually separates the green from the
trap, does the player incur a penalty
for accidentally or unconsciously
touching this grass with club head.
although away from the ball and not
in the act of addressing it?
Answer: Definition 90 covering
hazards provides, among other mat
tiers, that grass in a bunker is not
part of the hazard unless so defined
by local rule" Obviously grass,
whether long or short, not in bunker,
may be touched with the clubhead,
provided rule Is is not infringed,
namely: The player may not improve
the position of his ball by moving,
bending or breaking anything fixed or
growing, except so far as is necessary
to enable him fairly to take his stance
in addressing the ball, and in making
his backward or forward swing.
Question: In golf match recently
I was up with but 3 holes to play.
I was on the sixteenth green in three
strokes and my opponent in a sand
trap in three, about 20 yards from flag.
Naturally my caddie took the flag My
opponent played very low, hardhit
ball from the trap, which hit my
caddie, and his ball stopped about 3
feet from the hole. There was an
argument and he claimed the hole.
Others say it was a rub of the green.
I claim it a very good break for him,
because he would have been beaten
by and 2. However, being excited
by his attitude, I lost the next two
holes. but won the extra hole with a
birdie.
Answer: Your competitors claim was
correct Under rule 18, if a players
ball strike an opponent or his caddie
the opponents side shall lose the hole.
1t was not rub of the green, which
occurs only when a ball in motion is
stopped or DETECTED by an agency out
side the match definition 23).

Kingfish Out of 1t.

UNFORTUNATELY for Huey Long,
u he will have nothing to do with
the party. although L. S. U. will
be given every consideration. The
game will be held in the Tulane
Stadium, largest in the South. and
the New Orleans Item Tribune is
sponsoring and promoting the affair.
Just how this contest will affect the
status of the Rose Bowl game on the
same date remains to be seen. But
foot ball fans throughout the country
no doubt will welcome the idea that
four teams. instead of two as hereto
fore, will make New Year a bigger
and better holiday.
Selection of the West Coasts choice
of an opponent often has been Sc
verely criticized. Now that the sugar
bowl has added a similar feature to
the Nations gridiron schedule, 1t
ought to come that much nearer to
satisfying everybody.

Pitt Also Considered.

hioO SOiIoiuCICus
"A IL three of these teams are now
n under consideration, along with
Pittsburgh. Though Pittsburgh
has been defeated by Minnesota, still
1t is one of the ranking teams of the
country, and is regarded by many as
the best in the East. A victory over
the undefeated Navy team certainly
would strengthen this claim. Princeton
and Minnesota, both undefeated, rate
high for national honors. but it is
thought post-season rulings would
make it impossible for them to accept
an invitation.
In the South, Alabama, Rice and
Louisiana State head the list. All
three have shown convincing power
throughout their schedules so far.
Alabama and Rice already have met
the most outstanding teams on their
schedule. but L. S. u has three dates
with Tulane, Tennessee and Oregon
that will bear watching.

One on Bunker Play.

SECOND-The ball was in bunker
~ and within 20 yards of the hole
when played. 1t struck a COM
petitor's ball on the green. Would the
player incur a two-Stroke penalty?
Answer: No. The two-stroke PEN
atty is applied to player whose ball
strikes that of his fellow competitor
in stroke play only when both balls
are on the putting green (stroke rule
1922, and hazards within 20 yards
of the hole are not part of the put
ting green.
Third a competitor playing in a

in question picked up a players ball
believing it was lost; then when he
discovered it was competitors ball he
threw the same back in the vicinity
of where it had been. 1t rolled into
a place which made a very bad lie.
Was the player required to play the
ball out of the place where it had
been thrown or did he have the right
to place it approximately where it lay
when it was picked up?
Answer: The player should have
dropped his ball as near as possible to
the place where it lay before it was
picked up by the player in the match

~ ONTINUING its efforts to
clarity the rules of golf by a
4 series of interpretations on
specific cases, the United
States Golf Association today handed
down several rulings which are of in
terest to players at the clubs around
Washington.
In one Of these the association re-
states the old rule that the ball
farthest from the hole must be played
first, regardless of where it lies, in the
following way: Question: rs it the
general or official rule that the ball
farthest from the hole must or should
be played at all times from tee to
green, inclusive. regardless of location.
Answer: The ball farther from the
hole must be played first regardless OF
where it lies rules and 81, except
that in stroke competitions the nearer
ball may under certain conditions be
played first if its owner so elect tsee
stroke rule 49, and in four-ball
matches balls belonging to the same
side shall be played in the order the
side deems best.
Three questions came up for decl-
sion in a city championship at Ke-
vance, Ill, any of which apply daily 10
play at the local clubs. FirSt-A ball
was played out of a bunker which
went out of bounds. Should the ball
be placed in the bunker at the place
from where it was played or should it
be dropped by the competitor in the
bunker?
Answer: The ball must be dropped
In the bunker as nearly as possible at
the spot from which it was played.
