when Mr, Donohue sent a communi-

Young Mulligan of Norwalk must
cease calling himself bantam cham-
pion of Connecticut until he has de-

' REAL PROBLEM
Are certain athletes bigger than
the sport in which they are rated on
stars? This thought is suggested by
. the attitude of Jack Dempsey in the
tennis circles.
In most sports the champions de-
fend their titles at stated intervals.
~ Not so in the boxing game.
In baseball, the reign of the world
champions lasts only through the
winter. When spring comes the boys
must step out and repeat. or pass out
of the picture.
. In golf, there is an annual tourna-
ment. amateur and professional. that

The tennis heads. however. feel
that accepting money for writing

One year ago the committee laid
down certain rules under which Til-
den nilght continue to write. One
of them being that he should make
no comment on matches in whirl
he was a participant.
Then Tildcn makes the rule more
mockery by giving his views in the
form of an interview to another
newspapcrman, pure subterfuge.
While I do not agree with the ten-
nis body as to the status or an ama-
teur, yet rules are made to be obeg-

player certainly does not Justify the
attitude he has taken as to a set

is simply making a. Joke of the ten-

In selecting’ a line wood club the
player should pick one in which the
grain runs toward the race of the
club. The grain
usually is defined
by lines which
ru'n circularly
t h r o u g h the
head. If these
lines run toward
the shaft. the
head will split
more easily than
when the grain
runs 'toward the
face of the club.
If the ciubi is
only partly soled
.with brass. look
for this grain on
the bottom of
the club. where
it shows more
plainly. As for shafts in iron clubs.
they should always be stiff. A
number 1 iron might have‘ a sug-
gestion of whip near the head:
there must be no. such resilience in
the shafts of other trade. The
shafts, however. should have a feel
of nastiness—- a. Iiiringy febling that
is responsive to the touch. That is.
irons should not be heavy ‘and reg-
gy. The wood club shaft~ gives a
trifle when the ,ball is hit. The iron
club shaft must not give because
the head has to dig through the
