GOLF GOSSIP Edited by EVERETT WILSON Jock Hutchison showed that he was not fully used to the British climate by falling out of the Gleneagles tourn- ament early in the play. Last year he overcame the disadvantages and won the British Open... When he has fully recovered from the change, he should play much better golf and may be expected to give a great account of himself in this year's Open. With that event over ..and '§éveral minor "played, he will return for - x = #7 the National Open at Skokie. i ! i § i ¥ iStates 16 mow Lhe After his Pacific coast tour "ia JO Lue Conviubivn that the T'nitcd greatest golfing Zwuvun, a position which he expects this country to Lold for all time. No man has had a better opportunity to give a first hand opinion on golf con- ditions here and abroad than Hutch- ison. With Barnes, he toured the west and was able to play on many excel- lent courses and compete with many sectional and district champions. He says that Texas has made rapid strides in golf and that there is ap- parently much enthusiasm over the game. The California courses are not far behind the eastern courses, accord- ing to Hutchison. Another interesting comment from this prominent player comes in a dis- cussion of the stymie. He claims that this club presents one of the most spectacular and interesting features of the game and that most good play- ers will welcome its return. Although many students of the game say that success with the stymie is a matter of luck, "Jock" says that the club can be used with much certainty and to good effect. Wf Wm ok Rk Kk Examination of the bags of a num- ber of players will always show a varied number of clubs in each outfit. From five to fifteen clubs or even more may be found. George Duncan, Brit- ish star, uses only nine clubs: brassie, driver, spoon, driving-iron, mid-iron, mashie-iron, mashie, mashie-niblick, and putter. It is after years of trial that he has decided on those clubs named above which seem to serve him very well. Miss Alexa Sterling, it is said, uses fifteen clubs and managed to win the United States Woman's championship. J. H. Kirkwood, Australian Open champion, uses vnly seven clubs, being at the other extreme. The number of clubs depends upon the whim and need of the individual player, but it is apparent that not all good players must-have a great variety of clubs to get results. Duncan recommends an absolutely upright putter. Although he uses one with a medium lie himself. The reason for his variance with what he regards as best, is that he started with=the one and does not care 'to change after years of play with the other. He recommends a shift with a little whip in are not sunple, tnat is for those who ao not play a great deal. A player with supple wrists can get good results with the stiff shaft. TET OER NE NE dE The amateur championship of the Chicago District Golf association is being held this week-end at the Oak Park club. A number of local players are entered and are expected to give a good account of themselves. The present champion is Raymond J. Daly, of Flossmoor. The course is said to be in the best of shape. kk 0X "4 * ok Xk % The Western Amateur will be played at the Hillcrest club, in Kansas City, June 25, July 1. The entries close on June 17. * * * * ES Agitation for more courses along the lines recently, more work will be done. stirred up every day. Not only local bodies, but national associations are taking the question of more courses for those who are not wealthy and can not afford dues at country clubs into serious consideration. Although great strides have been taken along these lines recently more work will be done. Robert W. McKinlay, commissioner of Forest Park Preserve, Chicago, says that the time is not far off when towns of 10,000 population will have a public course. The congestion around many community courses is very great, especially on Saturday afternoons and Sundays. Cook county is one of the leaders in public links and more are to be added. * ¥ » The Four Towns tournament at Skokie will be continued this week. The second round was played Satur- day. Indian Hill will offer the usual woman's event on Wednesday in ad- dition to an eighteen hole handicap Saturday. Other local clubs have % *k ¥ ® 0% 0% similar events carded. it for the player whose wrists. LOGAL BOYS SIGN UP FOR GAMP ROOSEVELT Wm. W. Miller and Walter Quinby Take Course William Whipple Miller, son of Mr. and Mrs. William S. Miller of 647 Spruce street is the first Winnetka boy to register for Camp Roosevelt, the national boys' camp near La Porte, Indiana, this summer. Walter Edward Quinby of 1282 Asbury ave- nue, Hubbard Woods, will accompany William to the camp. Both boys are students in the New Trier High school. A comprehensive military, educa- tional and recreational program awaits the boy who decides to attend the camping season from July 5 to August 15, according to Major F. L. Beals, camp commandant. Saturday afternoons, Sundays, and free periods during the week will be given over to ball games, field and track events, handball, volleyball, and other outdoor sports, all carefully supervised by trained athletic coaches and instructors from the Chicago public high schools. Swimming will be in Silver Lake, and a big water carnival will be held once during each period. "Y?" to Entertain The "Y" will again furnish special entertainment. Movies, boxing con- tests, and home talent shows will be presented. The American Red Cross will con- duct classes in First Aid and Red Cross. Electric cars connect the camp with LaPorte, eight miles distant. Indications, Major Beals stated, are that applications for attendance at the camp will be greater than during the past three years. This he believes is due in part to the change in loca- tion, which brings the camp so much nearer to Chicago. He urges candi- dates to send in their applications without delay. Camp opens on July 5. SPEEDING TRUCKS E. A. Channer, 402 Willow street, has complained to the police that trucks are continually speeding past his home. Chief Peterson has in- structed his men to watch for the violators.
