one of the chief reasons for Captain
Black discarding the policy of the
past two seasons and coming to Yale
field to train instend of Icing to

“airtight be secured under the scientific
management of the university dining
hall.
Attempts to bring a football squad
to a summer hotel. both at Rudd!”
and Lakevllle. have proved disastrous
when tried by recent Yale captains.
and Black has determined to avail
hitntelf of the superior facilities of
the Yale gridiron, the Yale home
training tables and the home dormi-
tories as afiording morercomfort, con-
veniences and chances for scientific
drill than any other.
The complication caused by the
presence of the Yale battery. consist-
ing of nearly 500 undergraduates. at
'I‘obyhanna. Pa., and the likelihood
that all may be unable to report at
the beginning of the fall term. has
caused Captain Black and the football
coaches to take a serious view of the
Mexican situation and the gridiron
outlook.
Black went carefully over the list
of candidates for the. eleven and found
that only two players who were re.
lied upon for regular foothhll duty are
enrolled on the battery. "They are

Braden. the former Washington and

the eleven could suffer.

Golf clubs planning to lengthen their
courses would do well to remember
that there h more than mere yanlage
to the long holes. says an old player.
In other words. when building the
three shatters always have in mind
the contour of the land no soil as
thoughts on bunker-lug schemes. which
will give the shot: their true value.
As one architect points out. as a
rule a championship course possesses
several three shot holes. and the
bunkering of such a hole is the [treat
consideration. for hazards must be
plat-ed to make It impossible for the
green to be reached with any sort of a
third after either the dries or the sec-
ond shot has been badly hit. These
three shot holes are necessary to pro-
rida rarlety. but there seems no strong
reason for the building of a hole of
over 550 yards in length.
To be sure. a hole is Just as Ion
it plays, and unusual turf condit ons
must be considered. but In taking the
length of holes generally and analysing
them we must assume that the condi‘
lens are normal
A glance over the plans of the seven
championship courses of Great Britain
reveals the fact that not one possesses
a single hole which measures mo
yards. Westward 80 has one or:
yards. while St. Andrews possesses
two holes of over 500 yards—the fifth
of 553 yards and the fourteenth of bio
yards. The twelfth at Prestwiclr
measures 508 yards and the sixteenth
at Hoylako 510 yards. There Is not a
single hole which measures 500 yulds
at either llnlrficld or Dani.
Probably the greatest test of the
crack golfer ties In his ability-to play
his usual game In a strong wind.
