THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. By “Chick” Evans. C hicago, ill., Aug. 2.—'The few years of my life have been very successful In a golfing wa> 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 the 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 plav 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 A 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 botherspme to me on the putting green. 1 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 speech above the breathless quiet of the crowd watching the execution of a difficult shot. This makes it hard for the player, and if. is 1 all the worse 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 around the course after the players. This frequently obliges the player to pass through the gallery to his ball, 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 playing badly. This is very bad for the player, and there is nothing more likely to prevent concentration of at tention upon his game. Personally, I like to talk to people in the gallery when I am playing, but the mere successful players never do. At such times I like to see my friends and I hope that they like to see me. “LET WILLARD GET A REP,” WIRES BURNS TO JONES Pa’s Always Fussy About Little Things ITS OMLY IOKI2 Buy it hjs Four op the. cutest lil 'built iu’ BUMKS Vov EVER.

THE SIN OF THE CINCY HIT By Fred D Pasley—-- Who Asks R. Kipling to Apologize for Him. A S Thompson, tho sportin’ writer, lolled back in his swivel chair, A spirit sneaked up Inihind 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. Till 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 bo lone.” And the naked soul of our hero grew white a.s a rain-washed bone. “I’ve thousands of friends on earth,” he cried: "I was their priest and gv “And my, baseball chatter was famous from Oakland to Ingleslde— “Spheroid, Ilorsehide and Pellet, Globule, Capsule and Pill— “I was a pen Napoleon, marshaled my words at will.

Curver and South-paw Star. “I put the fest in Bootfest and the Slug in 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 thee a bit: "Art thou the man that discovered the Cincinnati Hit?” “Yes,” proudly answered Thompson, and the pride of the scribe was gr< “It is Baseball’s Fourth Dimension ' and he started to orate. “Aw, can thy chatter!” said Peter, as he opened a-wide the door, t . "Keep on dropping downward till you reach the bottom floor. “We take in a few reporters, and sport writers, too, sometimes, “But you with your Cincy Hit must go where they punish such crimes.” awful PATSY KLINE WALLOPS BUCK IN TEN ROUNDS NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—Patny Kline, of Newark, administered an artistic lacinR to Tommy Buck, the Philadelphia feath erweight., in a ten-round bout at- Brown's A.
