An amateur once tried to convince Kdward Ray that it was a simple stun to negotiate a stymie when the inter vening ball was on the Hp of the hole He was prepared to back himself to bring it off five times out of six, but as he was trying to convince Mr. Ray from a distance of 200 miles, the famed golfer did not have the pleasure of drawing his money. The stymie in which the ball is on the lip Is best left alone (unless, indeed, you are left with that stroke for the half. In which case there Is nothing for it but to make desperate effort) because there Is such a thing as putting the other fellow in. Make a friend of the niblick and you will find it a useful club.

Philbrook, manager of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club I track and field team, received a tele gram yesterday from Frederick W. Rublen. secretary of the Amateur Ath letic Union, stating that the National Amateur Athletio Union track and field championships will be decided upon Franklin field, Philadelphia, on Sep tember 13 and 14, which clears up a point that has been worrying athletic clubs throughout the United States more than a month. The original dates set for the meet were September a, 6 and 7 and yesterday's announcement was the first to give the change of dates and the name of the field. When the national meet was an nounced several months ago to take place on Franklin field on September 5, 8 and 7, the college authorities in Philadelphia made the statement that President Sam Dallas of the Amateur Athletic Union had not received per mission from them to use Franklin field and such permission would not have been given, as the field would not be available this year. The reason given waa that grass had been planted to prepare for the football season and that a track meet would spoil the sur face. After the letdown from the college authorities the Amateur Athletic Union officials began a futile search for an other field in Philadelphia to stage the meet. Philbrook Is now awaiting word from Rubien in New York as to what ar rangements can be made to bring the crack Winged M athletes east to com pete in the American track and field classio next month. . Philbrook recently sent a list of the Multnomah club possible entries, with their records for the past season and the past few years. In the letter Phil brook also asked what financial ar rangements could be made to help bring the athletes east. He should re ceive an answer by Monday or Tues day. The athletes throughout the country were anxious to know where the big meet was to be held, and It was the first time in history that the holding place of a national championship was ot known more than a month in ad- ance. At the French Amateur Athletic I Union games a good plan is used to j give the press writers the correct re-1 suit of each event. The press repre sentative of the club gets the finishes I from the judges and the time from the I dockers. He then makes out on typewriter the result of each and a I copy Is handed each writer. The applications of two new associa tions recently applying to the Amateur I Athletic Union of the United States fori permission to create new district asso ciations of the Amateur Athletic Union j to be known as the Indiana association and the Western New York association. have heen favorably acted upon by the I Amateur Ainieuc union, tne national I athletic governing body of this coun- I try.

Ludendorffs book on the great war, throughout the main part of which he was the dominating German military figure, is arousing tremendous interest here. For he alone can throw authorita tive light on many obscure episodes of the highest importance in judging not only of the German military sys tem at work, but of those of the different allied countries to which he was opposed. Nobody can speak with more Inti mate knowledge of the real part played by the former kaiser both in triumph and adversity and on the relations between the German civil and military power In times of crisis, for Ludendorff virtually be came dictator in the most crucial period of his country's fortunes. His estimate of the capabilities of the allied military leaders as viewed from the enemy's experience of their work and achievements should be highly instructive when allowance Is made for the critical hostility of their most formidab'e antagonist.
