In the first place I advise the player to go over the situation very carefully. Do not be in a hurry to take action. Survey the ground In front, at the side of, and behind the ball, By doing so you may be able to find an unsuspected way out of the difficulty.

Gardner this year is taking his second fling at managing -the Ashe- villa (N.C.) Tourists of the Sally League. Upon arrival at Asheville to take charge of the training grind, Gardner announced no ban would prevail against golf for his players. "I cannot see that golf harms a player as long as he does not permit golf to become paramount ' to his baseball," said the major league veteran. "I play the game myself. Tt does nof Hurt | my flelding, throw- ing or batting. "Just as 1ong as players take an occasional round on the links I hold no objection.

"A round once or twice a week | gives them a rest from baseball worries," he explains, "If they're in a slump, players sit about hotel lob- bies all morning worrying. They are grouchy, crabby and harbor a.bad disposition . that is detrimental not only to themselves but to the club as a whole. A round 'of golf causes them to forget their 'worries. If they get nice, long golf drives, they regain batting confidence. ' : Gardiner says the main objection of baseball managers to golf is that players play the pasture game too '| long at a stretch. "Nine holes in the morning is enough," he opines. "Eighteen holes or more leaves them' fatigued when they reach the park. They're tired and baseball is a drudgery in the afternoon.- That's when -the halt must be called." The former big league idol relates that golf swings are free and easy. Nothing jerky and harmful in swing- ing at a stationary object. Baseball players will keep loose, limber and in good shape by a couple of rounds on the links a week, claims Gard- ner, who gives par a battle nowy and . then. -------- Toronto Man Among Those Barred for Life Avior; Hls., ~ June § 9 ~8ix persons involved in the poisoning of race horses ten days ago were *uled off the turf for life by officials of the Jockey Club.
