However on the first ballot
Smith men on the delegation casting their votes for their choice
"from the outset.
Edward M. Yoemans of Andever
‘ resigned as the Connecticut member
of Committee on Resolutions and
Homer S. Cummings was unani-
mously elected in his stead. This
"manoeuver opens the way for Cum~
"mings' selection as chairman of the
Important Committee on Resolutions.
for which he has already been nom-
inated and to which he may be
elected tomorrow.
Cummings' leadership and absolute
control of the Connecticut delegation
has made manifest when after an
informal talk to the delegates he was
assured by more than a. majority that
they would follow his leadership.
The Connecticut crowd apparently
realize that running national con-
ventions is no childrens' tea. party
and appear quite content to follow
Cummings' lead. They express the
belief that by following a seasoned
veteran of many political campaigns.
for whom convention rules and
strategy constitute a. very palatible
and easily digestible dish Connecti-
cut will play a much more important
and decisive part in deciding the
result of the Democratic conclave
than by following their respective
whims and desires.
This is exactly the situation. which
means that despite the apparent de-
veloping of Smith sentiment in the
delegation. which so far is repres-
ented‘by Thorns of Waterbury. Yeo-
mans of Andover, Kinsella. of Hart-
ford. Dolan of Machester. Fenton, of
Williamantic. Archibald McNeil Jr..
Bridgeport, Fizhenry. \Vaterbury and
Mary Caines of Naugatuck. as Cum-
mings goes so will the delegation go.
If Cummings advises casting the
total Connecticut ballot for McAdoo
at any stage of the convention deen-
ed by him to be the strategic time.
Connecticut will unquestionably cast
its strength for the Californian. for
paraxadoxical as it sounds. Connec-
ticut. an uninstructed state, whose
delegates are divided in sentiment as
regards candidates. is absolutely con-
trolled by one man. Homer S. Cum-
mings. of Stamford.
Strong “Dark Horse"
Cummings himself is by no means
an improbability as a long shot. for
his qualifications for being large sis-
ed Presidential timber are known to
most of the delegates. He is favor—
ably regarded everywhere. and in
Idl‘.‘ll0n is one of the recognized
leaders at perhaps the most import-
‘ ant democratic convention in the
history of the party.
At yesterday's caucus he urged
~..doleg‘ates not to even cast first bal-
lot for him. but so unrestrained is
the Cummings' sentiment among the
Connecticut crowd that it is doubt-
ful if his name can be withheld.
even if he is not nominated by a.
delegate from some other state. He
is considered the outstanding dark
horse of the convention. _
Here is the way the political
"dopesters" have classed the various
‘candidates.

BRITISH BAN ,
STEEL SHAH
GOLF STICKS
Declare American De-
cision Tends to Make
Easier and More Me-
chanical
LONDON. June Si—The accept-
ance of the use of steel-shafted golf
clubs by the governing body of the
game in America meets with no ap-
proval in Great Britain. For this
there are many explanations. In the
first place. there is the inherent
Flt-lush disincllnation to accept any-
thing new. but. beyond this reason
for repelling novelties that seek to
cross the Atlantic. there is. in this
case. a general feeling that the Am-
erlcum: are always trying to make
the game of golf easier and more
mechanical. Consequently the Brit-
ish feel that it is up to them. who
nurtured the game in its infancy.
to see that it keeps the character of
its youth.
It is this feeling which has led the
reps! and ancient law-making body
to forbid use of the punched and
cut-faced irons which the American
entrants in last year's Open Cham-
pionship brought over. If anyone
brings steel—shafted clubs from Am.
crica to this your's championships it
will be a. waste of cargo-space. be-
cause the governing body is certain
to bar them.
Just. before the amateur cham-
pionships began at St. Andrews last
monthuthe rules of golf committee
posted a notice in the club-house
“deploring” the use in the game of
golf of “implements which have
never been associated with it.” The
notice was polite. but intended. no
doubt. to make those who failed to
heed its moral lesson Just a little bit
ashamed of themselves. It read as
follows!
“The Rules of Golf committee
hope that golfers, before making use
of abnormal methods of play or of
abnormal implements. will earnestly
consider whether they are acting in
conformity with the spirit of the
rules of golf. and in particular with
the regulations governing the form
and make of golf clubs.
“The committee “considers it is to
be deplored that players. instead of
trying to master the uses of golf
clubs. should endeavor to overcome
the difficulties of the game by using
implements which have never been
associated with it.”
At the time of its appearance. the
people at St. Andrews interpreted
the notice as a hint to H. D. Gillies.
a well-known British amateur. to
six or ten inches high. which have
excited much comment ever since he
began using them last winter. Mr.
Gillies took the hint and fell back
upon the ordinary little clots of wet
sand for his toes the next morning.
Anyone who has followed the dis-
finslon by British..golfors and sport
writers upon every American change
in the game. knows that the notice
