Weekend Golf Fare

Winter Players
Fine Links in Virginia,

BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Washington golfers are inveterate
travellers. Almost anywhere you 20

best golf weather OF the year, you'll
flnd flock of divot-1ingers from
the Capital catching up on their
turf culture before winter sets in
and checks all but the hardy folks,
who don't object to frozen greens
and skimpy fairway lies.
Around the National Capital within
radius OF a few hours drive lie a
dozen golf courses and weekend
spots, most of which you can reach
in five hours or less.

Anne and Cavalier courses: Old
Point Comfort. with its Chamberlin
course; Charlottesville, with it's fine
Pennington Country Club layout,
and many other courses where you

touring golfer to visit Virginia.
Pinehurst Courses Fine.
The situation is little different
in Maryland. Most of the clubs
around Baltimore are private affairs,
where an introduction is necessary
and the mountain resorts, like Bed
ford Springs, Deer Park and other
similar spots, have closed for the
season. But there are some fine
golf courses scattered through nearby
Maryland, If introductions can be
obtained
A more extensive trip involving
several days is to Pinehurst, where
four OF Americas finest golf courses
give the visitor anything he wants
in the way Of fairway diversion
from the very. very tough No.

Washington scholastic sportsdoms
most beloved character, silyery-
thatched Bill Foley, caustic coach
OF thousands of track athletes and
first athletic instructor in the school
system here, shortly will resign his
post at Central High, it was learned
today.
Currently living with relatives at
Pawtucket, r. l., Foley, considered
by students of the sport the finest
sprint coach In the world for many
years, has delayed rendering his
resignation because he felt he would
regain his health, but the 70-year-
old former Olympic team mentor
recently informed friends he has no
intention of returning to this city.
Bothered by a stomach ailment
for many years. Foleys activities
for the past five years have been
confined chiefly to conducting physi-
cal education classes. A batchelor,
Foley prefers to remain in Paw
tucket, where his diet will be
watched carefully.
From the moment he became the
Districts first schoolboy coach,
Foley made his presence felt. That
was back in 1896, when the school
system lured him from Georgetown
University, where he served as track
tutor for two years after filling
the same capacity at Brown Uni
versity.
Athletes Health Held First.
Not until 1913 did Central lose
track championship, dropping the
title that year only because West
ern bobbed up with the sensational
Untz Brewer, who created records
which still stand, and several other
stars. The following year Foley S
blue-clad team again struck It's
stride and Central ruled the Gin
ders for another decade
During his span of AZ years in
the school system Foley compiled
one of the most enviable records
ever made by any coach. And he
did it by stressing health first The
athletes he trained are convinced
he never gave two hoots in Hades
for championship, but he was con-
cerned keenly about developing sick
ly lads, and, perhaps as reward, title
after title flowed his way.
Cal Milan. who for years held
the scholastic high jump record
here, illustrates Foley's methods
Milan came to the veteran mentor
an underdeveloped boy and Foley
developed him into a trim. deter
mined athlete. who cleared feet

Due to Superstition

Why do so many people look upon
green as an unlueky color? After all
It is the principal color in nature.
And because Of that, 1t has &C.
Quired its evil repute. In the early
days Of mankind, man saw evil
spirits all round him. Almost every
natural object was given supernat-
ural powers. There were tree-gods
and earth-gods. Green was the col
or of tree and grass and so was
Sacred" to the gods that dwelt in
them. If man dared to wear this
color, he was risking the anger Of
the gods. And out of that grew the
legend that green was an unlucky
color.

Faith

II man has in ali ages had enough
to encounter. there has, in most civ
flized ages. been an inward force
vouchsafed him, whereby the pres
sure Of things outward might be
withstood. Obstruction abounded;
but faith also was not wanting. II
is by faith that man removes noun
tains; while he had faith his limbs
might be wearied with toiling, his
back CALLED with bearing; but the
heart within him was peaceable and
resolved Faith gave him an IN
ward willingness; a world Of
strength wherewith to confront
world Of difficulty. The true wretch
'edness is here; that the difficulty
remains and the strength be lost;
that we have the labor and want
the willingness.-Carlyle.

No .er Push Ferries

Ma +. uSn 4 CITIES
In some parts Of Europe they
have a neat way of making ferry
boats cross rivers without any APP
parent motive power whatsoever.
They have no engine. neither do
they use wind, nor does man-power
or the strength of animals pull them
across. Instead, according to a
writer in the Philadelphia Inquirer,
the natives use the river itself to
push the boat across. A heavy
line is stretched across the stream,
which must be clear and fairly
swift-running at the crossing. The
line is made tight and a pulley
attached. The pulley is fastened to
the boat in such way as to keep
her pointed diagonally across the
current. All that is now necessary
is to loosen the ropes holding the
boat to shore. The current press
ing against the side of the boat,
which is presented at an angle,
drives the boat across at quite a
speed. When the return crossing is
to be made, the boat is turned to
cross the current in the other di-
reetiOn and the current obediently
drives the boat back. As long as
the river runs the boat win cross,
without engines or work by its
srew.

The rosy-bill is often mistaken for
the redhead and the two have shared
the fate Of the canvasback, since they
look alike when their plumage has
been removed. The flavor Of either
is not so distinctive that it can be
told with certainty.
Roots and shoots Of aquatic plants
supply the rosy-bill with food and 1t
also loves to dive for the insect life
and small fish that play about the
roots Of the tender plants. This makes
an ideal vegetable and meat combina-
ton and the duck wakes fat and
happy on the abundant food so easily
obtained.
The youngsters, bred in the slouRhs
and marshes, soon learn to seek their
own living. Some Of them are pulled
under by water snakes and others meet
death by being caught by animals

The ducklings are obedient little babies
