I believe that ! have worked
as hard and as intelligently with
pupils as any golf instructor.
With many Of my pupils I've
worked night and day for months
without vacation.
Very often, after a long, hard
pull with a pupil | find results
limited by just n thing, the
wrong mental ALTITUDE. No mat
ter how much I've tried to con-
vince a player that he holds the
wrong notion about the swing,
particularly as II applies to him
self, I've only recently come to
full appreciation Of this item asa
handicap both to player and
teacher.
You want to know where you
get off the track. where your
troubles originate? Well, it's
right in your head. You have
the wrong idea about the swing or
you hold the wrong impression as
to the practieability Of certain
phases Of the swing.

CHICAGO, Jan. IL. R1-ln anna
teur sports. success l. marked by the
number OF competitors and the quail
ity OF the competition rather than
by the size OF the gate or the num-
Der of spectators as in professional
contests. At the conclusion OF a
year filled with growth and progress
by these standards. despite unset
tied conditions in fields political and
economic. amateur sport looks for
ward to new triumphS. national as
we'll as international. during 1885.
Competitive sport, first organized
on a large scale IN the United
States. is gradually spreading to
all parts Of the civilized world.
Lacking the private initiative sup
piled in this country by athletic
clubs and educational institutions.
in nations like Italy. japan. Mexico
and Soviet Russia, the government,
recognizing the values OF physical
training and recreation to its citi-
zens. has taken a hand and Is pro-
noting and encouraging competitive
sports and games on a national
scale.
Many Programs
Leaders representing such wide
" differing political PHILOSOPHERS as
those Of Musolini. Hitler and Stain.
agree on the importance Of sport
and have initiated athletic programs
designed 10 reach vast numbers.
More and more foreign countries,
recognizing the leadership OF the
United States, ask us 70 send our
best athletes abroad to meet their
champions so that they may learn
American methods. At the recent
convention Of the Amateur Athletic
Union invitations were received
from a dozen nations requesting
track and field, swimming. ice
hockey. wrestling and weight lift
ing teams to be their guests dur
ing 1885.
Fifty nations are preparing for the
nth Olympiad TO be held In Aug
ust. 1886. and the fourth winter
games. scheduled for February. 1886,
and competition will be keener than
ever. This is recognized by Ameri-
can sport leaders and % Olympic
sport committees are already work
ing TO develop teams that will con-
tinue the record Of success written
by previous wearers Of the red,
white and blue.
New Records
From the new marks established
in running. jumping, weight throw
ing. swimming, weight lifting, etc,
and from the excellent performances
and added interest in skating. anna
teur boxing. wrestling. rowing. anna
teur ice hockey. fencing. skiing. etc,
there is no doubt that WI bows will
give a good account OF themselves.
Because there will not be time
enough to select and pre- are the
winter sports teams next season be-
fore the games open in February.
1886, tentative selections will be
made this winter. Performances
next summer in other sports will
give the fans an idea Of Olympic
timber for the 1886 tryoutS.

HUSKIES GIVE COUGARS FIRST
 TRACK DEFEAT
Washington State Trimmed After Three-Year Reign
 by Seattle Team

PULLMAN, Wash, May 20.-Tri- umphant over the three-year cham pionship track. team of Washington State College. the University of Washington thinciads have returned to Seattle today from their yictori- ous meet with the Cougars here Saturday. The Iuskies gave the Pullman lineup convincing beat ing, 76 1-3 to 54 2-3.
 Saturdays defeat was the first suffered by the Washington State track and field artists in Northern Division, Pacific Coast Conference competition for three years. Wash ington also was the last team to defeat the Cougars.
 However, the Seattle team, which holds track victory this season over Stanford, hasn't won the Northwest honors yet. There still remains the conference meet to be run off, and victory in this con- test does not always go to the strongest dual meet squad.

 You kncW,n he continued, 2 would like to teach golf; I think it's great fun to point out mistakes to other people and teach them ts hit the ball in the groove.
 T have two more semesters al Stanford before I graduate, and when I finish l might go in fol writing golf-I like to write. As a matter of fact I took three course: in journalism at college last year.
 All in all Little left the impress sion that he could be tempted tc desert the amateur ranks by a prC offer but that it would have to bC mighty big.
 One Way to Score Well
 It appears that the ladies hays come very definite ideas about the game of golf that are entirely their own. Listen to the case Of Mrs. Lee P. Federman.
 Mrs. Federman, one of the leading woman golfers in the east, tore ul her card at the 18th green because she needed five for a 90 and did not get it. Right then and there she decided that the Piping Rock tournament would have to struggle on without her presence.
 All of which is in line with Mrs Federman's plan not to turn in any cards showing score higher than 90.
 Behind all this scheming lies the fact that the Metropolitan Golf as- sociation attempted to give her a handicap of three on the strength of one card she turned in last year showing a score over 90. Mrs. Feder- man insisted that she should have a handicap rating of one stroke and no more.
 There will be no arguments next spring for Mrs. Federman will sec that no scores of 90 or more are turned in.

Tommy Armour IS Of the opinion that Lawson Little will not only successfully defend the British anna teur championship he won last year but will win the British open as we'll
 If any man should known about Little's game it is the wiry Scot Armour spent many hours teaching the British and American amateur titleholder to get plenty of bite md topspin out of his iron ap- breaches.
 Armour insists that Little's game 2 as fine as that of any pro in the country. If the young giant were tc make the swing from coast-to-c -coast with the pro golfers he would be certain to hold his own if not tor the best of them, Armour opines.
 With but very little practice be- fore he arrived at the Augusta Ma sional club for the Masters tourna- ment, he stepped out and hit even par, 288, to top the list of anna teurs and finish well up among the pros.
 Little himself feels that he has more control over his long iron shots and consequently is shooting with greater confidence. Today he $ shooting for the pin whereas in the past he was satisfied if his long shots found the green. | He is still a terrific driver. With the exception of Jimmy Thomson there is hardly a man in the world who figures to outdrive the broad shouldered Stanford university stu dent.
 Ears Open to Pro Offers
 Shorty before Little sailed for England he was asked if he enter tained any thoughts of turning pro- fessional.
 That's something I hate to an swer," he replied, and then added "I'd prefer to see how I make out in the two amateur championships

 GAME TOMORROW At baseball park-Legion vs Elks ct 6:30 o'clock.

Although a steady drizzle pre- vailed to make playing conditions bad, there was nothing bad about Ken Junge's performance yester- day as he led the Legion to five inning victory over the Elks to open the City Baseball League season. When Umpire Harold E. Regele called the contest, the score favored the Legionnaires, to l.
 Junge did just about everything right. As pitcher for four innings, he shut cut the defending cham pions with nary base hit. Inci- dentally, Ward McAllister, who re- lieved Junge in the final frame, also blanked the Elks, so the opener was a no-hit affair. But Junge wasn't content with a perfect pitching record. For, in the third frame, he poked out the first home run of the season to deep center,
 However, Junge's circuit trip wasn't needed. His teammates ssTcd ID the contest in the initial frame, when four single 5-moSt of them Of the scratch variety-were com blned with Tal Picinini's double to drive in three scores. First baseman Joe Snow collected the first single, a drive over shortstop He was fol- lowed by one-base efforts by Bob Lloyd, Junge and Wilson Foster. Two errors by Abb.e Garn, Elk shortstop who had wo5oly Gay, didn't help matters for the losers
 EIks Score
 Then came Junges homer i'll the third. This was followed by the lone Elk tally, accounted for when Bob Ellinsburg, who had been hit by a pitched ball, raced home from third after c. Livingston's long fly to left.
 The scoring ceased in the fifth when the Legion tallied again, this time on another error by Garn and two by firstbaseman Merritt. Boyd, safe on booble, scored after Eos ters neat bunt down the first-base line had been generally kicked around
 Junge showed the few fans who braved the indictment weather a good fast ball which he managed to keep under good control Big Mac MacSpadden. Elk hurler, only all lowed two earned runs, but his sup port was weak. Defensively, Koshak Legion laft-fielder, and Livingston Elk third-baseman, performed well The latter handled seven chances perfectly.
