For quite a while English women
golfers have displayed their superi-

At least since the Cecil Leitch-

from a "grand slam.”

On that occasion Mlss Wills lost
both her singles battles. And ‘in

also went down twice.

.The English combination was sim-

While it is true that the Amni-
cans held the invading forces oven
until the tliuil match of the meet-
ing. the doubles play of the English
pair. Evelyn Colyer and Kitty Mc-
Kane. was too much for the two
American queens. Helen Wills and
Mary K. nrowne. Only a game

averted an nnnilllation..

THE “nhzz'i‘ Cllont's.
Not so many years ago baseball
was the only sport in which the
spectators severely took to task the
active players.
In other words. baseball. the na-
tional pastime. was the only game in
which the athletes were “razzed” by
the spectators. Likewise. the one
sport where one seldom agreed with
the officials in charge.
In all probability "razzing" of the
players originated in baseball. For
years it has been the game of the
masses. The average filo believes
he can manage better than the man-
tiger. play better than the player
and posithely umpire betuzr than
the umpire.
Being of such an opinion, he in-
variably gives vent to his feelings
won he believes some one has
erred. pulled a dumb play.

Until recent years the big college
football crowds ‘wer'e largely .lnadc
up of the alumni of the institutions
playing or of other colleges. The
happenings of the game were ac-

Of late there has been a change.
The popularity of football has
reached the masses. The . “razz”
chorus is fast becoming a part of
the grid game and it is to be re-
grotted.
In the last British open golf tour-
nament McDonald Smith had a very
unpleasant experience with the gal-
lery following him. It practically
killed his championship possibilities.
