No Retreat

Then Horton Smith moved the
players strike ultimatum be with
drawn. Johnny Farrell backed him
up. But to no avail. The rest of
the players felt they would lose pres
tige by beating a retreat in face of
opposition.
President Jacobus saved further
argument by issuing the "Shute
plays" edict. Perhaps it was for
tunate that Shute did not win. The
governors couldn't stop Denny from
playing, but they could exercise GER
tain rights in certifying the P. G. A.
champion.
Regardless Of the outcome, pro-
fessional golf did not benefit from
the tournament war. Both officials
and players were mistaken. The
players, though worthy of praise for
their loyalty to fellow player, erred
in waiting until the last moment to
actively assert themselves. And
when cool-headed judgment was
needed, the officials were found
wanting.
The meet more closely resembled
a dog fight than golf tournament.
Members Of the club, who had re-
linquished playing rights in order to
give the pros a chance to display
their ability, were completely dis
gusted. The situation had reached
such a point that officials were
warned to take their tournament of
the premises or to begin playing.
Rebellious players, many of whom
built up the pro tournament, were
far from pleased with the unfavor-
able press notices devoted to the af-
fair. They did not want to settle
the Shute issue in such a drastic
manner. but seemingly thought it
the only way out.
The governors did not like Jaco.
bus method of handling the dispute.
They had voted Shute ineligible on
two occasions, and expected their
president to abide by the official de.
cision. He did not do so.
At present there is talk that the
stars intend to form an Organizat ton
Of their own. II this movement is
successful II may sound the death
knell Of the p. G. A. The Organixa-
ton needs the stars far more than
the stars need il.
The questions will be answered
at the executive meeting In No.
vember. Either some of the die.
hards will be dropped from the or.
ganization. or the stars will strike
out for themselves.
Right now the latter situation
seems the more likely.

THOUGH the Battle of Pomonok
= is now past history, it may have
repercussions which will effect the
entire structure Of the Professional
Golfers association.
You are undoubtedly familiar with
golfdom's great war. Storm clouds
started gathering as soon as p. G. A.
officials notified Denny Shute, two
time tournament winner, that he was
guilty Of a technically in not pay
ing his 1889 association dues within
properly prescribed time limits, and
therefore was not eligible to play
in the p. G. A. classic on the PomO-
nok course at Flushing, N. Y.
Shute's fellow players were
aroused. In fact, they we're so
aroused they decided not to play
until the tournament committee lift
ed its official ban against Denny.
The striking players held up tourna-
ment play for two hours before that
permission was finally granted.
One man was responsible for de-
claring Shute in. That was George
Jacobus. president of P. G. A. He
over-ruled his IL governors through
his action, thereby making II poten-
tial enemies. Jacobus' position was
not an enviable one. He, of course.
realized Shute had violated P. G. A.
bylaws, and was constitutionally in
eligible to play. On the other hand,
he was aware Of the associations

was the officiating arbiter Mon
day evening. Mr.. Clark is one
of the originators of the game
and each year attends the annual
meeting in Chicago to help make
and interpret the softball rules.
Mr.. Clark pointed out that one
of. the most important of the
rules is that the pitcher be
CARRIED differently from the rest
of the players and wear only a
dark uniform.
Due to the Rockville Fire De-
partment carnival, the softball
