JUNIOR LEAGUE MEETS IN JACKSONVILLE HALL JACKSONVILLE, March 3t.(SpU Junior Legion baseball league met at the U, S. hall Tuesday evening, where general business waa dUouaaed for the coming aeaaon. Bud Re In king was elected captain; Pre ton Card, manager ot Junior league baaeball goods. C. B. Dtinnlngton furnished a trac tor and th Junior league graded the baseball diamond the first of the week. Not long ago I waa writing some thing about the persistence and stu dious Industry with which the American amateur golfer, masculine persuasion, pursued hla game. Indeed, X was quoting Or. Allstair Mackenzie, noted golf architect, to the effect that this was probably the reason why th amateur golfers of the United States had In recent yeara apparently taken command of the game Internationally, "Britlah women," added Dr. Mac kanrle, "study the gama relatively more conscientiously than our men, and you see that they are qutta nble to hold their own with the American li.dles." P. O. A. Doubts It. i Now comes a report from the Pro fessional Golfers' association of America from a recent poll ' taken of Its members, with the Information that women golfors take more than fifty per cent of all the golf lessons given by professionals In the United States. Aa I recall It Information not guaranteed the proportion of men golfera to women golfers in this coun try la about four to one. This mnkea the ratio ot golfing atudenta under professional Instruction Just to much more remarkable. Tha P. O. A. study also reveals that feminine golfera In the northern and western portions of the country take more Instructions than those in the south. In some northern clubs aa much aa 70 per cent of lessons given are to women., whereas 15 per cent Is a fair average for clubs In the south. Climatic condltlona have a good deal to do with thla. In the south women go out and play where their northern cousins In the long winters take Indoor lessons. Moat professionals agree that wo men are more adaptable pupils than men, In golf. One teacher says they have more patience, adding that they are more docile about learning and practicing th proper awing without the inclination to get out and engage in a match of some kind. "Women as a rule do not have the same faulta to overcome aa men," aald another professional. "Most men have played a good deal of baseball In their youth, and the baaeball swing la about aa wrong, from a golfing standpoint, aa possible. The woman pupil, not having learned any awing at all, aa a rule,, docs not have to unlearn anything." And then the more persistent Ideas of femininity are evidenced by the disposition of women pupils to take a regular aeries of lessons, where men usually Incline to take one or two lessons, to try to smooth out some pet fault and let it go at that. Women Have Rhythm One thing strikes me as a bit odd; the unanimity of professional opin ion that women possess more nat ural rhythm than men. It has always been a pet convic tion of mine that th sense of tim ing, which le a sort of focus In the matter of rhythm, Is far more uni versal In men than In women. The average feminine beginner In golf acema not to know what you mean when you tell her to "hit It." However, a lot of good teachers seem to incline toward a theory that calls for swinging or sweeping In stead of hitting. E BRADENTON. Fla. (AP) The "grind" of training camp life, as ex emplified by a typical member of the St. Louis Cardinal squad, recent ly was the subject of Investigation here. The player "under observation, 55 It was found, arose at 7:30 and had breakfast at 8. By 9:b0 he waa ot the ball park, and by 10 had started a workout which lasted until 11:30.
