Kerlcr For at least 30 years the ques tion has bobbed up: Why can't a left handed golfer play Just as good golf as a right-handed golfer? You remember what Harry Vardon said to Ted Bliss, back In 10OO a remark that did much to raise the question? miss, a southpaw, had just finished playing a very good round with Harry, and. not unnaturally, wanted to hear a little something complimentary from the man who possibly has been more paving of casual flattery than any other famous golf professlonol in the world. .'Whom do you regard as the best lert handed player you ever saw?"' Asked Bliss, at a diplomatic oppor tunity. Old Harry, then not so old, rodi- i tated. "Well." he said at last. "I've never seen one of them worth a dam'." ; And evfiy .so olten, fiomeb.Kiy (usually a southpaw) arises and de mands pour-quoi? Ruby Taylah In "The American Golfer" is the latest, so far as I know. And he makes out a pretty good case for those who congenietlly stand on the wrong side of the ball and urges that they in turn demand of their professionals to be properly and conscientiously taught, with the same thoroughness of a promising right-handed player. ? Tho pros decline to take the south paw seriously, Taylah InslBts. Thero may" be something to this contention. It really Is funny, how few serious contenders In our major golf championships bat from the other side of the line of flight. , I think Lcn Nettlefold, three years ago amateur champion of Australia, Is the most capable southpaw I ever saw in golf. But he never has got much of anywhere else. " Now, here is a theory I heard re cently up at Interlachen. I believe It was, and I am sorry that for the life of me I cannot recall the man who promulgated it. Because it may bo the best answer yet. I did not think of it myself. I rarely have anything like an idea. ' "These carefully matched and bal anced sets of golf clubs," he; Bald, "ore the logical development of in- j tensivo ana uticuuuu oiuw u gun j ballistics and the production of clubs calculated and designed to aid the I player to do a certain thing or set pf ! thincs to a coif ball. And all this : Btudy has been expended on right- j hand clubs! ' f "Lefthand clubs, at any rato until I very lately, have simply been left-, hand clubs. There appears to have i been no design, for them. They were ' Just right-hand clubs turned around casually. The idea seems to have been that anything was good enough fcr the southpaw." Maybe there's something In that theory. Anyway, it will help along the denote. llv Alan .1. (loulcl . (Associated Press Sports Editor) For the first time In seven years and for only the third time since tho war, Walter Hogen will be with out any national golf crown in his possession at the close' of the 1930 campaign. The only other barren seasons for tho veteran were 1820 and 1023. . When thc "Halg" failed to qualify at Cherry Valley for the national P, G. A. championship, an event he has captured five times, he lost his last chanco of the year to bag one of the riiain titles. It was a bitter blow to the veteran, even though he took It with char acteristic good nature.

It even went further, saying that there weren't enough supplies in the world to support fur ther growth of population. -; The mind of 1818 couldn't conceive of the miracles that human ingenuity would perform during the twentieth century. It couldn't imagine the wonders that would be wrought by new agricultural methods and modern manufacturing genius. It was ignorant of transportation as we know it, or the progressive sales methods of today. It could not see the vital part that would be played by advertising. Even today there, are some who fail to realize what an important factor advertising has become. Adver tising is as much a part of today's life, as electricity, antiseptic surgery or automobiles. It -keeps us -up-to-date on the many things we need in order to live, prof : itable, happy and useful lives. It presents for our approval articles of all kinds and for air purposes. The requirements of each member of the family are ' met by advertised offers of good merchandise of proved valud.
