7 Bv “Chick” Evans. C hicago, ill.. Aug. 2.—The | few years of my life have been very successful In a golfing way and, therefore, I have had but little time to follow other players' games. Last week, however, In the Western at Homewood. Mr. Allis put me so abruptly out of tho game that I had ample time to follow the matches and form a part of the large galleries, and a golf gallery Is always an Interest ing assemblage of people. I have often been asked how I could play with a gallery. My questioners could not see why so many Interested people did not disturb me and make me nervous Players, however, are not much disturbed by a watching multitude, and they usually play their best games at such times. If I do happen to be playing badly, a gallery or anything else, of course, disturbs. As long as I am given room to get my club head around I am satisfied. A gallery forming a large body Is much more acceptable to the player than the scattering few. Lone Spectator Unnerving. The one thing that bothers me Is to have a single Individual directly behind or in front of me. This Is the commonest mistake made by the In nocent spectator, for he wants to watch the ball’s line of flight. This Is especially bothersome to me on the putting green. I love the strange quiet when the shot Is being exe cuted, and the buzzing comments of hundreds of voices as the body of people begins to move along. Now and then one hears a woman, un acquainted with the etiquette of golf, lifting her voice In hurried speeeh above the breathless quiet of the crowd watching the execution of a dtfflcult shot. This makes It hard for the player, and It Is all the worse j when the loud speech concerns some thing utterly foreign to golf. Player Should Ignore Crowd. The player should never notice the gallery except as a whole; singling out individuals Is a mistake. The | spectators of other sports are usually stationary, but the golf gallery moves I around the course after the players'. I This frequently obliges the player to | pass through the gallery to his ball. I and then he Is usually grasped from all sides by his friends; at such times they tell him that they have a bet on him, or make some other re mark equally encouraging when he is j playing badly. This is very bad for | the player, and there Is nothing mon i likely to prevent concentration of at tention upon his game. Personally. I like to talk to people | in the gallery when I am playing, bui | the more successful players never do. At such times I like to see my friends J and I hope that they like to see me. “LET WILLARD GET A REP,” WIRES BURNS TO JONES 1,0s ANGELES, Au*. 2.—Tommy | Burr manager of Arthur Pelky, and , Tom Jones, who looks after the Inter ests of Jess Willard, are hooked to I hook up In an interesting battle of In- j vectives and near-blows within a day 1 or two. Jones wants to match Willard against Pelky, but Burns in a telegram to-day says that Willard must go get a reputa tion before presuming to challenge a champion "Gunboat Smith Is the man Pelky wants to meet," said Burns. “Smith beat Willard, and then again, Charley Miller shaded the Kansas scrapper. Let him get a 'rep' for himself.' This sort of language Is the sort that makes Jones glad he la alive, for he thrives on argument. "When did Pelky whip Willard or'any body of consequence until he landed a lucky punch on Luther McCarty? asks Jones ''Willard can whip Pelky, and Burns can name his own terms. Pelky took one beating from Willard and xants no more.” Pa’s Always Fussy About Little Things 'WERB <SbfkKS To Tut 1 5^4-Swore. BA • vwa Pick*.d J OUT A D4RLlAJ<3r j COTT46E.

A S Thompson, the sportin' writer, lolled back In his swivel elmlr, A spirit sneaked up behind him and deftly grappled his hair. Grappled his hair and carried him farther and farther away, Till he heard as the roar of the rain-fed ford the roar of the milky way. TUI he heard the roar of the milky way die down and drone and cease, And they came to the gate within the wall where Peter holds the keys. “Stand up, stand up. Mr. Thompson, and answer loud and high. “The good that ye did for the sake of men in little earth so lone.” And the naked soul of our hero grew white as a rain-washed bone. “Pve thousands of friends on earth,” he cried; “I was their priest and gulds “And my baseball chatter was famous from Oakland to Tngleside— “Spheroid, Horsehhle and Pellet, Globule, Capsule and Pill— “1 was a pen Napoleon, marshaled my words at will. “I was the synomic wizard and rated far above par— “Hurler, Twlrler and Ileaver, Curver and South-paw Star. “I put the fest In Bootfest and the Slug 111 Slugfest, too, “And I snipped the Ire off of Umpire to give the fans something new.” "Hold, hold!” then cried St. Peter, “I would question tbM a bit: “Art thou the man that discovered the Cincinnati Hit?" “Yes," proudly answered Thompson, and the pride of the scribe was great; “It Is Baseball's Fourth Dimension—” and he started to orate. “Aw, can th.v chatter!" said Peter, as he opened a-wlde the door, “Keep on dropping downward till you reach the bottom floor. "We take In a few reporters, and sport writers, too, sometimes, “But yon with your Cincy Hit must go where they punish ench awful crimes.” PATSY KLINE WALLOPS BUCK IN TEN ROUNDS NEW YORK.
