HE'S A GOLF CHAMPION—This certainly doesn't look like any way to keep one's golf title. But it happened that Ralph Quldahl, national open golf champion, had to undergo a minor operation, at a hospital in Miami, Fla. So while he was recuperating, some- body brought him a book to read. Quite likely, it isn't a book that explains the rudiments of the links game.

ATTACK SHOULD BE AS
VARIED AS POSSIBLE
Most leaders should believe in through passes as a táctical move of the game, duties of which fall very naturally more upon a centre-forward or a contre-half than upon others by virtue of their playing in the central positions. Thus a contre- forward or a contre-half should be able to dis- tribute passes on both sides botter than other members of the team.
A ball coming to a centre-forward from his right side, if passed back to the same side, would find the opposing defence fully alivo. to the situation, but if passed to the left side there is a possibility of finding the defence on this side not so alert. It may not be in ferred, however, that a centre-forward or a centre-half should in- variably pass the ball received from the right to the left or vice

Hockey Clubs Should Have First-aid 'Kit

Last Wednesday week i saw
a bad accident in which Lieut. Patterson of the Royal Scots was hit on the face. In "the course of a match.
Fortunately Dr. E. L. Gosano was present as a spectator on the field and he gave attention to the case.
I was astonished to discover that no first-aid outfit was available, nor did either team possess such a thing as band- ago. The result was that Dr. Cosano had to use a handker- chief to bind up the wounds.
I suggest that every-club (ladies and gentlemen), large or small, should most certainly bring along a small first-aid outfit to their matches in case of just such an accident, Ad- mittedly it is a lot of trouble but when an accident occurs players will agree that it has been worth while...
