Jones, had that genius been present. Miss Wethered seemed to be playing her usual Immaculate golf, but her partner, Major C. K. Hutchison, was hardly at his best; perhaps, because, having designed the course himself,, he knew too much about it.
However, that may be, his im- perfections gave Miss Wethered the opportunity of playing some dazzl- ing shots-notably a spoon-shot out of long grass on a badly "hanging" lle, into which her partner's topped drive had put her at the "sixteenth." The ordinary player would have taken a niblick and been glad to get out on to the course. Miss Wethered took a spoon and hit, the ball 200 yards, dead straight on the pin, as though it had been téed up.

*This revolutionary move on the part of the Wembley Stadium has attracted widespread interest among all the leading Soccer clubs.
"It is appropriate that the first match should be between the cream of Scottish football clubs and the undoubtedly Arsenal, who have proved themselves to be one of the beat teams in the country.
"A match between these two sides always draws a large crowd, and, combined with the novelty of the affair, the game at Wembley in December should attract a Cup-final attendance.
"Following this initial effort Wembley proposes to stage a series of important football matches at night throughout the winter."
Out of Order?
Not so fast; Wembley! What about Rule 24 of the Football Asso ciation? This reads:-
Clubs and players shall not com pete in any match or competition the proceeds of which are not de- voted to a recognised Football Club or Football Association or some. other object approved of by this Association.
The Athletic News learns that official objection will be raised to the game for this and other reasons. We have not the details of the scheme arrived at by the parties- concerned, but how is it proposed to divide the receipts of this "Cup Final attendance?" How does Wem- bley Stadium's share conform with Rule 247 ask the paper.
