Holy Manner. We expect q call about

That score-725, including a 60-pin

BY GAYLE TALBOT,

r ONDON, January 2.-Tempera-
mental Henry Cotton let out
yelp like a scalded dog today
- at news that the Royal and
Ancient Golf Club planned to reduce
the number of his clubs to IA, but
the majority of British players ac-
cepted the tidings calmly.
In fact, ALI Padgham, who has
grown a bit chesty since winning the
British open. added a new suggestion
that they make it 10 clubs instead
Of IA.
All the "old guard" including John
Henry Taylor, Harry Vardon. Jim
Braid and Alex Herd, greeted the
edict joyfully as acceptance of the
creed they have been preaching for
years.
The general opinion was tllat the
reduction would work to the advan-
tage Of British players who never
have gone in heavily for bulging bags
and at the same time handicap the
Americans who have been spoiled"
by the tremendous choice Of clubs
hitherto possible.

THE EXPERTS ARE WORRIED

The experts are worried about the
coming boom. They talk Of the threaten
ing initiation as if it were already upon US
and there is the possibility that they know
what they are talking about.
The fact Of the matter is that the ma
ton is moving up rather unevenly from
the depths Of great depression. Whether
the economic cart will gather dangerous
momentum depends upon number Of in
fluences. some Of which the government
can control and some Of which escape ex-
PLANTATION as well as management.
So far as we are advised the experts
are not able to advise individuals how to
protect themselves against all the dangers
that wholesale initiation would entail. The
best protection is to avoid the pitfalls Of
excessive initiation. This may mean that
the government will have to reverse some
Of its tendencies. which is what was to be
expected. The course that took us from
the bottom of the depression will have
served its purpose when the nation reach
