And it may be said without fear Of successful contradiction, as Senator Sorghum was wont to remark, that President Thcnnas really believes It. As a matter of fact, the Cubs do look better on paper this year than -they df4 - last. Thomas insists they look is, per- cent "better. Manager Bresnahan, being pessimistic as well as peevish in disposition, admits they look at least 25-per cent better. The Cubs went south for spring training with 31 candidates. .

Menke. Alma Whitaker, a Los- Angelea g'olf ing expert, favors looking at the cup instead of the ball when putting on the green. "When one throws a brick, at a'yowl lng eat one looks at the cat not the brick," remarks Miss Whitaker. j Righto! i Continuing In her argument that folks who look at the ball when putting are doing things backward. Miss Vhit aker says: "When you play crochet you look at the hoop not the ball. When you sew a button on a shirt yoti don'f look at the needle. . You look at the hole in the button. , When you bowl you look at the pins not the ball. "So why," asks Miss Whitaker, "should one reverse the general order in golfing? Why should one do the backward thing in golfing? The thihg to look at is the goal not the instru ment that is to take you to the goal." Miss Whitaker's logic seem to us the best that ever has been offered las an answer to the meated question jin golf: "Should one look at the ball or tjlie holft when putting? The worse golf score? .Well, three fellows plsryed a match game cn 'the Garden City, N. Y., links last year dur ing a tournament of the Carpet Trade Gold association and if the scores they turned in aren't of a record natijre show. us worse ones. . '. J The "best" golfer of the three nego tiated the 18 holes in 176; the next best took 191 swats at the ball while the third "blew" himself to 285 swings. Here Is the record of golfer number three the fellow who' hung up the rec ord: ' -!' Out: 31, 7, 16. 21, 17, 18, 17, IS, 1 155.

In their score to the secretary that (of ficial looked at the cards, gasped, and then exclaimed: ' h "Say, tell me, how were you fellows able to keep track of all your jshota?" "Oh, there wasn't anything hard about that," answered the 285 man. "We didn't have to count any higher than 31 at any one hole." t ! he was golfing with several members of tjhe house of representatives when President tVilson came and caught up with the congressional foursome. congressmen Invited Wilson to The "go son tloni his When You Want to of Lds Angeles Girl, golfer says that once upqn a time through please," said: pome diffidence In driving jo many members of the I whereupon Wil- feel thrdugh houie." he of tne congressmen retorted: ird. -n 1 . . . ... .sir. fresiaent, aren t you accus tomjed to driving through the house?"

Others declare that the new rule Is one of the beat things that has been promulgated in the trotting game in many years. They claim that the new rule will -abolish the abom inable practice of "laying up" in cer tain heats and will bring about better and fairer racing. .- How Hew Xule Works. The new rule makes it1 possible for a horse to win a face even though that horse did not win a heat. Under the .old rule the horses, that won two heats out of three or three out of five, as the conditions' of the race provided, was the winner of the race. Under the new rule, the decision goes to the horse that lias made the most consistent showing, throughout the race. As an Illustration, let us assume that there is a four horse race, best three heats out of five,, and that the horses finish this way: Fllp-Flop .................1 4 4 11 Flapper .y. . . . .1 2' 2 2 2 2 Hop-Hop ij... 13 3 3 Kinky ... 3 14 4 The race,, under the; new rules, goes to Flapper, although1 Flapper never finished better than second, and al though 'Flip-Flop finished first three times. Flip-Flop, It will be seen, has 11 'points scored again! him, whll Flapper has bepn penalized with 10 points only. Hop-Hop has. 14 point scored against him, whilA Kinky is penalized with 13 points. . Makes Gtood Mots. ...The Detroit Driving club made a good move when it changed the class ification for its two famous races the Merchants' - and Manufacturers' trot and ;the Chamber of Combmerce pace. -. The M, & M, trot was limited in former years to horses with records of 2:24 or worse, yet history shows that during the past 10 years the slow est heat ever trotted In the class wax 2:13. The average time for all heats for the past 10 years is 2:09.. The Chamber of Commerce pace used to be a 2:13 affair, yet Vie aver- ' . . . - j . . . age lor an neava since ii - was mane a 2:13 race has been around 2:0.1 Vi Minor Heir raced one heat in . that classic In the record time of 1:C9. Other horses have gone close to two minutes. , The new rule changes the classifi cation so that tfotters that can beat 2:10 are not barred from the M. & M. and that; pacers with records around 2:07 will be eligible to compete In the C. of C. pace.
