A NNAPOLIS, Nd, November 20.
~ Without dwelling unduly
n on the seven victories won
in a row this season or on
the decisive defeat administered by
Pittsburgh Saturday, Navy will devote
the next two weeks to preparation for
the climax of its schedule-the game
with Army at Philadelphia, Decem-
ber /.
Navy Is not discouraged by its
thrashing at the hands of Pitt, but
will try to make good use Of it by
devoting lot of time to the faults
which were brought out by that
game.
Against other opponents this sea-
son the tackling of the Middies has
been generally strong, but they were
not able to nail the fleet and power
full Panther backs, and it will be
back to fundamentals" for a while
at least. this week.
Players Battered.
DRACTICE will be light for day
or two, so that the varsity play
ers may recuperate from the
hard knocks of tight games on sue
cessive Saturdays, most of them
against teams which were more
powerful physically than their own.
No Navy player is serious cripple.
but there are sprains and bruises
which will be greatly benefited by a
few days rest.
Navy people will be especially in
terested in the game next Saturday
between Army and Notre Dame, and
it will be well secuted. Defeated by
Navy, Pittsburgh and Texas this year,
but strong against Northwestern Sat-
urday, the Ramblers are expected to
be hot against Army, an old rival,
and compel the latter to go the limit.

Many Rumors of Deals.

TN THE center of the major league
group were emissaries of the New
York Yankees, Chicago Cubs,
Brooklyn Dodgers and Washington
Senators, with the world champion
ship st. Louis Cardinals little retl-
cent, for change, pending negotia-
tions of the clubs possible sale to
Lew Wentz. Oklahoma oil million
aire. Some of the rumors of impend-
ing deals involving their clubs were:
That the st. Louis Cardinals had
Pepper Martin, the wild hoss of the
Osage," on the market for the best
offer, possibly for Woody English OF
the Chicago Cubs.
That the Washington Senators were
ready to trade Fred Schultz and Luke
Sewell to the Yankees if they can
get two or three fine looking young
prospects in return.
That the Cubs would get Van Lingle
Mungo, Brooklyn pitcher, if they can
give Manager Casey Stengel some one
he wants. The Cubs also we're known
to be after Carl Hubbell, Giant pitch
ing star, but those close to Manager
Bill Terry said there wasn't a chance
for that one.
The Pittsburgh Pirates we're due in
town today. too. with reported fancy
for high and wide trading. Reports
were that the Cubs were hot after
Freddie Lindstrom.
Little Series Turmoil"
THE only important tangible news
involved the fate of the little
world series. the Fall class AA
classic played between champions of
the International League and the
American Association. The A. A.
asked the l. L. to shorten its post-sea-
son play-offs a system that requires
three separate post-season series to
decide the champion of that league,
or else give up the little world series.
The A. A. chiefs insist that the I. L.
play-offs require so much time that
when the little world series is played
there is no customer interest. In
the A. A. the championship is decided
in one post-season series between the
leaders of the Western and Eastern
divisions of the league. Committees
of each league were to attempt to
settle the argument today.
Upwards of 900 representatives are
expected to attend the regular minor
league meeting tomorrow.

Rule Is Changed.

TT ALL came up because a woman
playing at Memphis picked up
pop bottle about IS yards in

claimed the hole. and the case was
referred to the U. S. G. A, whose
Rules Committee ruled as follows:

effective date being January l, 1884.
Formerly a loose impeachment could
only be removed If it lay within a
club length of the ball. Now rule
IL reads as follows: Except when
the ball lies in or touches hazard
any loose impeachment may be removed
without penalty Accordingly the
player suffered no penalty for pick
ing up and removing the bottle"

- and a score for the round OF
10. That's the way Freddie
Mcleod, Columbia's master Of
the trap shot and the chip, is playing
golf nowadays.
A month ago Freddie couldn't hit
lick He was in one of those slumps
which come to every first-claSs golfer
unexpectedly and unaccountably
Nothing he did was right and he
struggled to get around in rs.
Today when he goes above par for
the Columbia course it is only because
he has missed couple of wee puts
somewhere along the route. Why the
change? Freddie doesn't know except
that his timing was all wrong and
the puts were slipping around the
edge of the tin instead of dropping.
But nowadays the little Scot Is set
ting such a red-hot pace that he has
gone back to his old method of handi-
Gaping the star amateurs Of the club,
something he hasn't done for months.
Clyde Asher now gets 4, 5 and 6 holes
up; Miller Stevinson gets and 3 and
that's the way it goes. All Of which
means that the one and only Mcleod
is stroking the ball once more.
Averaging Better Than So.
YTIS last five rounds of golf have
been 81, 68, SO, 10 and 10, which
works out at an average OF a
little better than SO per round. Fig
ure it any way you want, whether
played from the short tees or not, and
that is quite an average on any golf
course as tough as Columbia.
A couple of days ago the Scot from
North Berwick had a great chance TO
play the last nine in 81. He actually
did the nine in SO, bagging no fewer
than five IS, one of them an eagle,
when he Clipped into the cup for the
trey on the par twelfth hole.
Here is his score for that nine,
against par:
Par .......... SO
Mcleod ...... As 3 33 4 3 3 5-33
In a stretch of six holes, starting
with the twelfth and winding up with
the seventeenth, Freddie bagged five
Is. Two of the holes are par affairs,
but one Of the IS was an eagle and
two more were brides.
He played two rounds last Saturday,
one of them with w. w. Hinshaw. the
former opera official. and in these
rounds he scored 68 and SO. He wasn't
So good on Sunday, scoring merely a
brace of 70s, made up OF "a and a SO,
and q 81 and 80.
Can Hit EN- in Wind.
YF THERE is one golfer around
Washington who knows how to play
in a wind or on cold, blustery days,
IL is The Mcleod of Columbia. Back
In 1908, when he won the national
open at Myopia, they used to say OF
him that he had the ability to play 'em
under the wind. OF course, that Is
impossible. but If you play with Fred
die some day and fancy yourself as
long hitter, wallop one Of your best
against the wind and see how far out
in front of him you are.
The little fellow, at the age OF 81,
has the knack of hitting shot that
bores through the breeze and keeps on
boring after your shot has lost It's
kick. He's a great golfer by any yard
stick, and it does a fellows heart good
to see him scoring so well again after
playing so badly through the early

Through your columns l would

you it is a real pleasure to read a

that we have neighbors who have
worthwhile principles and will
stick to them come what may. We
are glad that we have neighbors
who realize there can be no comp
romise with an economic system
based on the exploitation of the
creators of wealth.
In Canada we have our troubles.
Grain elevators and terminals full
of grain, with no markets, and our
own people hungry and stock is
starving. We are indebted to the
extent of some II billions of dol
lars and we cannot meet our in
terest payments.
There have been started some re-
| lief projects which are paying the
men 20 cents day but still the
workers and miners are dissatis-
fiede They even complain about
having to pay $1.75 for a pair of
overalls. They don't seem to req
lie that if the government can
not continue to pay a dividend Of
10 per cent in bank stocks the rest
of the world will look on Canada
with contempt.
