Ole Miss, Still "Burning Up"
Over Losses, Eager for
Win Saturday.

TT WILL be a band Of wrathful
Rebels that awaits Catholic Uni
versity's foot ball team at oxford,
L Miss, on Saturday when Dutch
Bergman takes his 1885 Cardinals back
to the Southland. where they gained
national fame last New Year day.
Whether that 20-19 defeat by c. q.
started the year" of on the wrong foot
or not is questionable, but the fact re-
mains that Mississippi has won but one
game since-its curtain raiser OF the
1886 campaign against little Union.
Since then Mississippi has lost three
straight-to Tulane, Temple and
Louisiana State-and a 90 tie with
our own George Washington hasn't
improved its disposition. Such a record
Is in marked contrast to that Of last
season, when the Rebels finished with
8 victories in II starts.
In none Of the defeats, however,
have the Southerners been disgraced,
the largest margin being last Satur-
days 1870 conquest by L. S. U. Such a
showing against one Of the strongest
teams in the South forestalls any sing
ing Of the swan-song Of fading eleven.
c. u, on the crest of a three-game
winning wave, will leave here tomorrow
night, giving the Cardinals q little
more than "a hours to become accli-
mated to the warmer temperature Of
their foes territory.

Luck Element Too Strong.

THERE is too much luck in golf as
it is. I can prove this by giving
you the list of the last Is survivors
for three years. Only few standard
names remain on this roster. They
change every year to marked de-
gree. The same thing happens in the
big professional open tournaments,
where there is a wide switch from
week to week. One golfer gets a good
lie on the fairWay-another has a
cuppy stroke to make. One golfer is
well placed in a bunker-another is
in deep heel-print against the bank.
There are countless incidents one
might mention. But these all belong
to the game. They can't be changed.
Life is not supposed to be ordered
along one set line. Fate and luck are
q part of the show.
But the factor OF luck around the
green is too great as it is. 1t is too big
pionship, where there are no stymieS.
The putting green is too much of
roulette wheel. A fine putting stroke
and sound putting nerves are big
help. But when it comes to the mat
ter of an inch or so on Is, 20 or 80
foot putt-that drops or doesn't drop
the factor of luck is entirely too i'm
portant. And when you add the
stymie, you merely increase this ele-
ment Of raw chance on too many
occasions.

Stymie Ruined Mclean,

THE stymie is an ancient institu-
ton. 1t came along with golf.
It was part of the Scottish idea. 1t
has many good points, calling for skill
under certain conditions But also
1t has its weaker side on the part of
raw luck This weaker side was
brought to light more than once in
the recent amateur championship. 1t
reached its climax when Jack Mclean
came to the sixteenth hole in the
afternoon, l up. At this critical hole
Mclean hit a fine drive, planted a
high-class iron shot IA feet from the
pin, and, after barely missing his
birdie 3, had an 18-inch putt for the
hole. But the way was blocked when
Johnny Fischer pushed his putt out
of line, the ball remaining on the
edge Of the cup. Mclean, on this
important hole, had made no mis-
takes and yet he was locked out-and
finally lost.
counted any number of similar
incidents relating to stymies that were
almost unplayable unless one cared to
ride in on the back of a miracle.
When the ball is hanging on the lip
of the cup, 1t is suicide to try for the
hole If there is a chance left for
half. I saw many incidents of this
nature at Garden City-Where I also
saw the ball knocked into the cup.

on and on, no matter whether or not
the u. s. @. A. takes any action at its
annual meeting next January.
Jim Cosgrove, vice president Of the
District association, and chief mover
against the stymie, was approached by
John G. jackson, president of the U.
s. G. A. q few months ago. and was
asked to soft-pedal his attacks on the
stymie and to defer, If possible, any
action by the local association and by
his club. Jackson didn't say the U. S.
@. A. would oust the stymie, but he
did ask Cosgroye II it was wise to
legislate the stymie out Of District golf.
Jim replied. with his customary
candor: Mr.. jackson, how can you
defend the only stroke in golf which
makes o gentleman feel embarrassed?
I haven't found a man who lays a
stymie in match play who either
didn't apologize or didn't feel like
apologizing for his act. It's the only
stroke in the game which has any
direct effect on the other fellows
play" And that's a new argument
against the Stymie. We thought there
were no new ones, but Jim has found
one, and a pretty logical one at that
It Is a fact that when a stymie Is
laid an apology generally goes with
1t. even in major championships.

Nov there are four things you
can do about the stymie-
/. Leave it in as it is now.
2. Change the rule to abolish sty-
mics where either ball is within 6
inches of the cup. There is no stymie
now If the two balls are less than 6
inches apart. This would be merely
an extension of the present rule.
8. Permit stynies only when the
golfer lays his own stymie on the
green.
f. Abolish the stymie entirely.
Most of the old guard of golf are in
favor of the stymie. As one grows
older he turns more and more to ira
dition-to the past. The stymie un-
doubtedly carries an element of the
sporting gesture. But the younger
generation is against it. 1t sees only
an added element of luck in game
that already has more than its share.
In a recent tennis championship
you could name Perry and Bulge as
the two finalists weeks ahead. In
golf you couldn't name the finalists
from the last 49, There was no Bob

Is no kick about this feature. 1t lacks
public appeal-but it also carries an
interesting guessing side. But if there
Is any chance to reduce the element
Of luck, 1t should be done.
The stymie is rarely played in any
rounds outside of important cham
pionships. Naturally, it is never
played in the open-in any media
rounds. It is my opinion that the
amateur and the open should be
played in the same way-to give tht
golfer his chance to make the put
that his play up to that point ha!
earned. 1t will take just trifle ava!

the silver fox of golf, one of

extremely sane observation:
Golf would be the finest competi-
ton in the world except for one thing.
That happens to be putting. To place
a long drive accurately-to fade or
hook in iron-to stop pitch
to pick up a brassie from a close
he-these all require skill. But putt
ing is something entirely different. 1t
Is a touch that comes and goes. 1t
is too often a matter of nerves on a
