C HICAGO, Dec. 19.—Dong arti cles arc constantly being writ ten concerning the brilliant deeds of our greatest golfers, but a few lines are usually considered suf ficient for the acts of the officials who provide the scene and the set ting for all the spectacular golf that j« played. To the successful forrqa- i oti of golf associations and the car rying thmugh of tournaments are devoted the executive ability and un tiring devotion of many men; often they are men of large affairs who give freely their time and knowledge for the benefit of the younger men. Conspicuous among men of this < lass is H. F. Smith, of Nashville, president o'f the Southern Golf As sociation. and one of the directors of the VT. G. A. Mr. Smith has been largely responsible for the building up of the S. Cl. A., of which he has been continuously president since 1904. and for the widespread Inter est and constant increase in golf play ing throughout the Southern States. In no part of the country Is inter est in golf growing more rapidly than in the South. This is the more re markable because golf playing was general in the Fast and Middle West long before it was taken up In the South. Yet it Is interesting to know In this connection that a golf club with officers and clubhouse existed at Charleston, S. C.p as irly as Oc tober, 1794 I do pot know how long this lasted ©r how complete tfye gap between this club and these later i • •ties of W'hlch wo know, but for many j .'ears there were few golf clubs and! but little interest in the game In the South. When Mr. Smith became president of the S. (I. A. it was a very small organization compared with the mammoth association of to-day, and ihe association is so convinced that Mr. Smith 1h indispensable that it will not permit him to resign. Mr. Smith is also president of the Tennessee Golf Association, a nour ishing little organization, and of the new Nashville Golf and Uountry Club That is planning a beautiful course on The historic Belle Mead Farm. But Mr. Smith's labors for golf have not been confined to the Southern States; for years he served on the directorate of the W G. A., was vice president several years and in 1910 he was elected president to succeed C. F. Thompson. His administration was one of the most successful in the his tory of the organization. For 1914 he will continue to serve the W. G. A. as director. Mr Smith pla>s a very good game of golf himself, although he learned it rather late in life. Some years ago he won the championship of the Na tional Freight Traffic Men’s Associa tion. \i WEN SH oW-0 Htwe STEP/ y. \ ..t^e - LOW LIFE OH- THNAK&. /n THE SRATWj BETSOFI0TB7 | indoor sports I WDLGAST ' BESTS WHITE By Tad Walsh Brothers Sign Contracts yI.|. y • -J- 4* *4* v#*h 4* #4* 4*# v Here’s One on Larry McLean Atlanta Favorite Has Hopes ofi Stopping Former Champion With Famous Left.

Turtles Get Stark For A1 Schweitzer LOS ANGELES, Dec. 19.-That he told McGraw to look for another in - fielder for thr 1914 season was the statement made to-day by Art Sha fer, star utility man of the New Y'ork Giants. Shafer says he has quit base ball for good. McGraw has traded Ilerzog ‘o\ Cincinnati, and with Sha fer refusing to play 4iie National League conqueror is up against it for a third baseman. McGraw visited Shafer when the Giants and White Sox were in this city and asked him if it was true that he had quit baseball for good. Sha fer said it was. and then McGraw tried to have him change his mind. He offered to make an exception in Shafer’s ease and not have him join the training squad ai Marlin. "1 am in business with my father, taking care of his estate," said Shafer to-day. "1 am out of baseball for ever "McGraw offered me a tempting salary and every consideration tKissi- ble, but I just think in the long run it would be better for me to remain in California.

Keeler. x -r tHATEVER may happen to the \/\/ rest of the rather lengthy roll of Cracker athletes for the team of 1914, the Walsh brothers are hooked. Their contracts were received Thursday afternoon by President Callaway. There still is some doubt around headquarters as to the division of la bor by the pair. Their names are Ed ward M. and James E., but which is the catcher and which the infielder nobody seems positive, not even BiPy Smith. pOUNT CASTRO, the celebrated or- ator and suds-passer, is claiming a good deal of credit for the hooking of the Walsh family. "it’s better to claim the credit be fore vhe practice soason, " said the Count, sagely. "Then, if they make good, you can say, ‘I told you so,' and if jthey don’t pan out, why, most folks wfll have forgotten by that time who tipped the club off to ’em." * * * A S a matter of fact, it was Mike Donlin who slipped Castro 'he hunch, under the Impression that the Count was going to operate a Vir ginia League club in the coming sea son. • Mike says they’re a great pair.' 1 raid Lou. “They're kids; just 20 and 21 years old, I understand. And Mike says they are corners—young and am bitious and full of the old pep. Char ley Grapewine thinks a lot of 'em, too. And those two birds are pretty w : s • when it comes to spotting a ball play~ er.” So Lou, feeling kindly disposed ‘■> the Atlanta club—it was before he signed with Chattanooga—and not having any use at that moment for the Messrs. Walsh, told Bill Smith about the brothers, and Billy decided to take a chance. * • * **F MET one of the boys while I was ' up East," is Bill's testimony. “I didn’t see him working, but I talked to him. and he looks like a regular ball player—and talks like one. Of course. I haven’t any confidence in this fellow Cjfstro, you know. He’s played ball for me—that is, he drew a salary from the club, which he transferred in the vva*v of fines to the president of the Vague. But he's a pretty good sort, and some folks think he knows a ball player when he sees bne. Lou thinks so, for instance." * * * T-JERE’S a Stove League yarn about 1 1 Long Larry McLean, the cele brated ex-bonded warehouse. It's an old one. dating back to the first year of the White Hope craze, a: which time Larry v.as a member of the Seattle ball club, out on the Coast. Being several inches better than six feet long, and husky in proportion. McLean was exploited by a Seattle writer as a likely White Hope, ami some pictures were published of him in boxing poses. • • • THE idea caught on, and. not to be 1 outdone, a Portland sport writer began to tout Rube Vickers, a big chap, formerly a pitcher for the Ath letics. Jimmy Hughes, the exploiter of Mc Lean. was justlv indignant. "That guy’s stealing your stuff.'' he told Larry. "What do you think of it?" “It's the limit,” Larry agreed. "Well, now, here’s what you d*\" said Larry’s friend. "You just ca'. his bluff. Portland plays here F’r day. You get a set of boxing glover., call Vickers into the clubhouse, put on one pair and throw the others down in front of him. and dare him to put ’em on. How do you like th;.; idea?" “Fine," said Larry, "but suppose the blamed cuss puts ’em on?" EMETS STILL INSISTS TINKER BEL Mediation of National League’s New President May Be Nec essary to Avert Row. By Frank G. Menke. N r EW YORK, Dec. 19.—One of the I first official acts of President Tener, of the National League, mav be to settle the dispute between he incinnati and Brooklyn baseball , ,i;i»s oyer the possession of Joe Tink- , hose transfer to the Dodgers was ed by the Reds’ board of di re*' rs after he had been sold by President AugUst Herrmann. Kbbets* position in baseball law is strong, and the roar he is making over the stopping of the deal is waking unpleasant echoes in the baseball world, at a time when It most needs quiet. Ebbets does not Intend to let Cin cinnati back out of the sale, and will ask the man higher up to decide the matter, or flipeal to the National Commission. The deal was made by the Brook lyn club in good faith," said Ebbets 4o-day. "We offered $25,000 for Tink er. and this offer was accepted by President Herrmann in behalf of the • incinnati club. President Herrman, like every other president in the Natonal League, is fully authorized to make trades, sales, and purchase players, and under baseball law the trade will stand. "As to the Cincinnati suggestion that we give up Yingling or Ragon and Stengel or Moran, the deal was made without any such condition, and a condition of that sort can not be added now. It is not in my power to give up any of these players, and it is not within the privilege of the Cincin nati club to insist or. any claim on any of them.” Mississippi After Game With Sewanee MEMPHIS, TENN., Dec. 19.—Thf University of Mississippi footba team, just reinstated into the goo*: graces of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic .Association, is endeavoring to arrange a football schedule for next fall.
