SA - WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1922 GOLF GOSSIP Edited by . E VERETT WILSON Every golf enthusiast is thinking and living in terms of the National Open at Skokie this week. The gal- leries crowded the course to witness great players participate in a great event. No critic, no sports writer has tried to predict the winner. With luck it might be possible to name the twelve who will head the list after the last match. A conservative choice of the winner might name twenty players and could not go much further. The first day of the qualifying round brought out its surprises when Bobby Gardner, one of the best of the amateurs, and Phil Gaudin, who, be- cause he knew the course so well and because of his natural ability and proven skill was given an even chance to be among the leaders, were far down the list. The starters were divided into three groups with three days allowed for the eliminations. Weather conditions were anxiously watched by officials and players. Six weeks of hot sun and no rain had baked the course, until the fairways resembled concrete in their firmness. This meant long drives and freak shots. At the last moment a heavy downpour brought relief and changed conditions. The second rain of Mon- day night helped still more.' In spite of the rain, which was sup- posed to cut down the length of the drives and make the scores higher, Jock Hutchison came through the first eighteen with 67 which equalled the old course record and followed in the afternoon with a 68. In the first day's play he was eight strokes ahead of the second man, Mike Brady, of Detroit. Jim Barnes and Abe Mitchell were tied for third with 144 for the 72 holes. Star golf players would seem to be fiends for work. The Park Ridge Country club has obtained Mitchell and Dunacn to play an exhibition against Hutchison and Hackbarth, the home 'professional, Sunday. Any one of these men may be National champion by that time. With the whirl of championships about the vicinity north shore clubs were not too excited to play their usual weekly contests. Fred Buckman won the Membership trophy at the North Shore club Saturday. The second round for the directors cup saw some hot competition. Buckman, H. S. Stevens, W. Spillane, F. Irwin, J. Marshall, R. Harrison, and D. Lester came out victorious and will play. the third round Saturday. In the first round of the National Open there were several players who narrowly escaped making a hole in Why Do So Many People Have Weak Arches? If shoe clerks are correct in saying that sixty per cent. of the women they wait on have weak arches; if the army examiners were correct in rejecting, on account of flat foot, enough men to make a city--then it does seem strange that so many people should have to suffer from failure of the foot to hold up under the weight of the body. Theyre not all fat people, either. Broadly speaking, the reason is this: Every part of the body is al- ways clad so as to permit reasonable muscular freedom, except the foot. Here the ligaments and muscles which should hold the arch bones in place, become atrophied through restricted circulation and lack of exercise in shoes that are rigid, tight, ill-fitting. Down goes the arch. There are other special causes, but the bulk of the sufferers can blame the shoes they have worn. How much better to wear Cantilever Shoes, with their flexible arches, and room for every part of the foot. They allow the arch muscles to exercise and strengthen naturally as you walk. Circulation is free. They are restful shoes to wear all day. They are com- fortable. All these features for your comfort and well-being have not pre- vented Cantilevers from being good- looking shoes. Their trim appearance is one of the pleasures in wearing them. These shoes are very finely made. The prices are moderate.

Williams led Class A and B.at Bob O'Link last week in a ball sweep- stakes with a net 70. C. J. Irvin was two strokes behind the winner and E. J. Osler trailed by one more stroke. A. V. Consberg won class C honors with a 70, being one stroke ahead of W. H. 'Robinson. - F.. B. O'Hara was third with 75. In class D, S. W, Belz turned in 65 and led the division. C. J. Knapp and C. J. Herman were next with 69. J. K. Hughes, of Wilmette, is the latest victim of the great hazard of the Evanston Community course, known as Gloede's trap. The florist, upon seeing Hughes searching for a lost ball in the flowers, called the police. Mr. Hughes readily entered a plea of guilty to a charge of trespass- ing, but said he was ignorant of the dangers of entering upon the sacred property. Most of the golfers who frequent the Evanston course have been warned that it is better to for- get about a ball which is sliced into Gloede's yard than to hunt for it. The weekly Fellowship cup at West- moreland was won by R. G. Bear, whose card read 91-20-71. H. J. Donald- son, F. J. Burns, F. Burnaby and P. W. Huston tied for first honors in a blind bogie with net 83's. Huston and G. Olson tied in a sweepstakes with net 72. The semi-finals of the Aber- deen cup and the second round of the president's cup were played last week and the next rounds will be finished Saturday. When it seemed that the fairways at Skokie were to be so hard with no indications of relief, the committee changed the rule on out of bounds, eliminating the loss of a stroke, mak- ing the loss of distance the only ractor. The rule stands with the con ditions changed and served in several instances to make lower scores pos- sible. y School Information Free Y Write, Telephone or Call Affiliated Boarding Schools Association Miss S.

The shortest biographies are prob- ably those on tombstones but they usually lack literary value. The one best combining brevity and literature is that of the immortal Solomon Grun- dy and after that we must place Miss May Sinclair's LIFE AND DEATH OF HARRIET FREAN. In 133 pages Miss Sinclair bas told the whole life history of her heroine leaving out nothing needed to give the reader a complete insight of Har- riet's history, character, environment and psychology. Where Dickens would use a page she takes a line and where Thack- eray would write an epigram she achieves the same result with a word. Of course Miss Sinclair loses a great deal of the color and atmosphere that they achieved The book is an etching. It is all line work and flat black and white and yet, without the color that comes from description and the atmo- sphere that accrues from the actions of a numerous cast of secondary char- acters she proves, as did Whistler, that even with an etcher's needle you can achieve atmosphere and dispense with color. Harriet Frean floated down the riv- er of life with never an effort to fight the current of her existence. Hers was the narrow river whose banks are morality and convention and hers the shallow stream whose bed holds no rocks of thought or rapids of passion. And so, when Harriet dies we have no tears to shed and our only regret is that now Miss Sinclair's book must end also. bpp And now, here comes the master with his Lineage of Litchfield where- in he demonstrates how Rudolph Musgrove and John Chateris sprang from the loins of none other than Dom 222 Gairing-Fine Arts F.

But--he concludes with what he calls "Exit" and states that he will write no more. Is this justice? Let him read Saevius Nicanor's chapter on the curious and not conveniently mentioned punishments that were in his day inflicted on authors that re- fused to write and let him picture the strong probability of an hundred mil- lion defrauded readers petitioning con- gress for a revival of those laws.
