losing Bernie Boland one of the best' younrf pitchers that has come Into the majors In many Back In August 1914 the Tigers secured Boland from the Nashville club of the Southern League upon recommendation of Its scouts The price agreed upon was 12 100 But It was a conditional" pur chase The agreement had a clause in it which forced the Tigers to pay Nash i vtlle a small sum down and the balance as soon as the 1915 season opened un less Boland fiivered in which case the Tigers were to return him In the training camp days of 1915 Boland didn't exhibit anything that evoked rapturous exclamations from a Jennings In fact his work was only so so Jennings felt that he might make good as a big leaguer but was in doubt as to whether the 23 year old kid was "ripe" A few days after the season opened the Nashville club communicated with Jennings in this way: "Send balance of purchase money or return Boland" Receiving no answer from Jennings within the next day or two Nashville i reiterated its ultimatum Jennings de elded to return Boland But the next a April Jennings was In a bad way for a pitcher So In the emergency ha gave Boland a chance It was against the White Sox and

handicap to any game The fact that rancis Ouimet was to join the col ors at an early date for service that might take him away from golf for sev eral years brought on the argument In the debate the was ad vanced that he would never be the same great golfer again But It Doesn't ollow But this follow of necessity not 'even If Ouimet shoul see three or four service Suppose we drop back to'the case of Johnny Ball Ball had won the cham pionship of Great Britain He was then back around 1899 greatest ama teur golfer His leading rival was reddie Tait the noted Scot Ball and Tait together left for South African service in the Boer war Tait was killed in action and Ball's time as a great golfer was thought (o be over He was then around 40 years of age supposed to be past the championship prime He served in South Africa for three years During that time he never had a chance to play ashot Yet upon hfs return home he not only entered the British championship but won It his first tournament appearance for over three seasons The Boer war and this war are not the same But so fttr as individual service and physical hardships go there Was no great difference And such hardships are likely to have a far rougher effect upon a man of 40 than upon one under 30 Putting Tip A brief while back we were discussing putting qualifications with Worth ington not only a close student of golf but one of the star putters ot I pastime "Do you he asked "where most of the putting mistakes come from? In my opinion the main reason for such mis takes is seldom mentioned It is the matter of lifting the putter from the ball rather than bringing it back along the ground The nutter should never he lifted It should be brought back along me grounu oareiy orusning tne grass Yet nineteen golfers out of twenty or ninety nine out of 100 rarely do this They lift the club head up aiid away where they are almost sure on the down stroke to si ce or nook tne nan and where a needed follow through is almost im possible The club head after hitting the ball should go out toward the hole This is simple enough when the club head 1b brought straight back along the grass The follow through then ordinarily takes care of itself But in the other method the ball is stabbed poked jabbed or something else with trouble sure to fol After this suggestion we paid close attention to the putting of Ouimet and Travers In a recent match Both were' putting in brilliant fashion And in both cases we observed that the club head of the putter was brought straight back along the grass where it was far easier to hole the proper line' The Male emale Debate Mfs A Gavin in the first section of the thirty six hole match proved well enough' that 'no male star can give a woman star nine strokes and emerge triumphantly the is not yet officially completed' In the first place the woman naturally has the advantage at this time of the year when the courses are baked and burned out and it is easily possible to get 210 or 220 yards even for only an average hitter But the facts in the case are this the best women players even of the Ma Gavin Miss Sterling are quite pa tent to get an 85 under normal conditions over the harder courses Over these same courses golfers of the Oulmet Evans Travers type can figure upon a 75 with equal certainty That is they will get 76s as often as the best women players nt 85s Mrs 37 for the last nine holes was exceptinal even for her She is a fine putter as fine a putter as al most any leading male star and with distance made easier she was almost un beatable at the finish Certainly over nine holes 3200 yards In length very few golfers weruld carb To extend a four stroke handicap against a 3 or they would be forced to get a 33 even to draw a half But no full verdict can be rendered un til the second eighteen holes are com pleted where Travers Is more likely to beat a 77 than Mrs Gavin Is to beat an 82 or even equal these figures This much can be advanced with cer Th or longer women drivers than Mrs Gavin and others such as Miss Stirling who may equal or even surpass her in iron play But in the feminine list she is the best putter of them all In the Metropolitan championship consisting of four play she failed to take ifiore than two putts on any green finishing with an average well under the two putt allowance And against Travers she needed but 32 putts for the eighteen holes Any golfer male or female who can count consistently upon taking less than a two putt average stands with the elect COLUMBUS SEASON CLOSES COLUMBUS Ind Sept Nicholas Poulton manager for the Reliance Manu facturing Company team closed the eeml professional baseball

fishing a stretch of water in the vicinity of Boggs town with an old gentleman who had hll son of eighteen summers with him the uncertainty of the proper kind of bait was clearly demonstrated The father had what he supposed waj an ideal pall of live bait while the son: carried a tomato can full of angle worms I tok the old gentleman in a boat with me and therefore we had both sides of the stream to fish as well as the middle while the youngster was left pp the shore The father and I fished with all kinds of artificial bait and as select a lot of live bait as one could desire When we: came in to dinner the son had twelve as nice bluegills as one could desire while We had one lonesome bluegill between us and that had been taken on a worm There was a circumstance which clearly demonstrated the uncertainty of putting 1 too much confidence In any certain kind of bait The privilege of the open country along stream with the opportunity of trying to slide one over on Mr Bass
