~HARGES that popular music Is
destroyed through excessive
use and repetitious public
performance by radio, dance
halls, sound trucks, etc, are contained
in statement made public today by
e. C. Mills. general manager of the
American Society of Composers, Au-
thors and Publishers.
Mills based his charges on the re-
suits OF comparative analysis Of
radio programs through 1884 and 1885.
The popular songs of 1884 depre-
ciated 80 per cent in the second year
Of their life," he said. There is no
such decline in the standard or classical
works, the depreciation in their sec
ond year being but 10 per cent.
Eighty-seven leading popular songs
were broadcast 1,255. 500 times during
1884 by the two major networks. These
same songs received only 2,025 per-
formances on the same works in 1895.
The songs melted like the SHOWS

RULE RIDICULOUS,
GOLF CRITICS SAY
Assert Player Is Unfairly
Pena|ized by Poor Work
of His Opponent.
BY FRANCIS ]. POWERS.


~ ECAUSE the stymie performed
- an important part in deciding
the national amateur golf
- championship, there will be
much furious authorship concerning
the Nervousness Of the rule, including
numerous letters to the London Times.
The principle of the stymie rule Is
ridiculous. In most games a player
Is penalized only for his own fault or
foul, but in golf the stymie often
permits q contestant to be handi-
capped by the putting Of an opponent,
which Is what occurred in the match
between Johnny Fischer and Jock
Mclean in the finals of the national
amateur.
In the United States the stymie rule
Is observed only in the national
amateur and P. G. A. championships.
The Western Golf Association threw
it overheard some years ago and at
one time almost went to war with
the U. S. G. A. over the rule. One
never finds stymies played in ordinary
club matches and consequently even
the better players have little expert
ence when they go to the national
championship. I never have been
able to understand why the stymie
should be played in match play and
not in medal, and never have found
any one who could give any sensible
explanation.
Bows to Britain.
THE U. S. G. A. no longer is in
favor OF the stymie and a couple
of years ago determined to eliminate
1t from the rules. The player farthest
from the hole was to have the privi-
lege of lifting an opponents ball from
his path as is done in medal competi-
tion. The U. S. G. A. notified the
Royal and Ancient Of the contem-
plated change. but the governing body
of British golf bleated SO loud and
long that the proposal was either
tabled or dropped altogether.
Professional golfers are unanimous
In their opposition to the stymie rule,
but so far the P. G. A. has retained
the rule in its national champion
ship. The P. G. A. has fine oppor-
tunity to do something worth while
for American golf by eliminating the
stymie and chances are 1t will get
around to the task sooner or later,
for the professionals are not particu-
larly subservient to the wishes Of the
Royal and Ancient. A poll taken. by
the Massachusetts, State Golf Asso-
citation showed its members almost
100 per cent In favor of abolishing the
stymie and that feeling is general
throughout the country.
Rule Apt to Come Up Again.
THE U. S. G. A. undoubtedly will
- consider the stymie rule again at
its annual meeting and there is hope
that this time the committeeman will
be governed by the wishes of Ameri-
can golfers rather. than by the die
tates of the Royal and Ancient. II
the British want to retain the stymie,
that is their business; but there is no
reason why the Royal and Ancient
should make the rule for American
fairways.
The U. s. G. A. went against the
wishes of the r. 81 A. a few years
ago, when the size of the ball was
changed, and for time Americans
played a larger and lighter ball than
was used in Great Britain. When
Americans compete in Great Britain.
let them play as the British play: but
for our own competition let's have
rules that are most satisfactory to our
conditions and players.
