By WALTER McCALLUM.

A quiet revolution Is brewing
within the ranks Of the feminine
golfers around town, regarding the
method of playing the team matches
which form q major feature of their
schedule each spring.
Dissatisfied with the team matches
in the form they took last year,
the trend Of thought among the
women now is toward substitution
of a handicapping system for sec
ond and third club teams. First
club teams would play at scratch,
without handicaps, as they have
done since the matches were started
many years ago.
Carrying the ball for the element
which would make a change in the
team match method Is Mrs. Walter
l.. Weible, present handicap chair
man for the Womens District Golf
Association and the nominee for
the presidency for 1941. Mrs.
Weible, not one of the top golfers
of the town herself, would like to
keep the first teams playing at
scratch, for the city team champion
ship. But also she would like to
see other teams play with handi-
caps, to equalize the differences
now existing in club strength.
II think the real championship,
which is in the top brackets, should
be played at scratch" she says.
But I've found that some clubs
have no chance against others in
the lower brackets playing without
handicaps. Further, I would like to
see all teams played with six men,
bers." Last year first teams had
eight members, second teams had
six and third teams had four.
Some Opposition Exists.
There is some opposition to the
proposal, and lot of talk about it.
The change in the team matches
seems sure to be the big question
among the feminine golfers over the
next few months. 1t will be as big
as were their political maneuvers
which resulted week ago in nomi-
nation OF slate headed by Mrs.
Weible.
The president-to-be is a woman
Of action. She doesn't believe in idle
talk. When an idea is broached she
turns it over, looks at it from all
angles. and talks it over with her
associates. There won't be any hssty

You'd think, the Pittsburgh Steel

morrow's crowd at Griffith Stadium
would show marked slump from
the previous throngs which have
turned out for local Redskin games
this year. After all. the Steelers are
debited with the second worst rec.

where in particular, and have no
single player who may be classed
as outstanding.
Yet, according to Redskin off,
cials. another turnout in excess Of

Not a full house, perhaps, but one
calculated to occupy every good seat
in the park. Fans are eager to see

Dodger Win Would Help.
Because they apparently don't
seem to care what happens in the
Giant-Dodger game UP in Brook
lyn. the Redskins should be able
to concentrate on their task at hand
here tomorrow-that of beating the
Steelers again. They've figured,
however, that Brooklyn victory
over New York might be better for
their interests, with their own game
with the Dodgers coming up week
from tomorrow.
Were Brooklyn to lose tomorrow.

Nueent's Sense Of VoIues
Worries Many Troders

Mr.. MacPhail is not the only Ma
tional League trader to be irritated
by Mr.. Nugent's sense Of values.
The Giants. the Pirates and per-
haps one or two other clubs are
interested in Higbe. But after every
conference they come away stunned
and bleeding from the impact Of
Mr.. Nugent's flying price-tag.
The asking price. I learn from q
slightly impeachable source, Is $780,
900. In lieu of this lump of sac.
chsrine, Mr.. Nugent will accept
100000 in cash and so grand worth
of ball players. His notion of what
constitutes so grand worth of ball
players is very eccentric, If you ask
Mr. MacPhail
He just wants my ball club, that's
ALL" walls the bafled brain of
Brooklyn. He mentioned three
players who are worth $4,000 apiece.
What good does he think Higbe will
do me if give my infield and out
field away to get him? Is Higbe
gonna play first, third, short, left
and center field for me? Why, the
clumsy fellow can hardly field his
own position! And I doubt If he
can pitch much, anyway"
That is the way the situation
stands, with G. Nugent in the driv-
er's seat. The Philadelphia huckster
is willing to peddle, but with three
bidders in the market, he can af-
ford to wait for his price.

you ask? Well, as I pointed out

Using pitcher in his league. He is
big and strong and he really can
lay back and pour it over. 1t doesn't
always happen with Philadelphia
players, but the assumption Is that
if you put this young man with
a good team, he would win 40 or
better per season.
There are some flaws in Higbes
performance to date. He shows q
disposition to sulk when a decision

him in a hole. That positively is

But the traders who covet the
youth are willing to gamble that
he will settle down and stick to
business with a winning club. Not
