WHICH IS THE BETTER FORM OF SPORT?

Edgard Rowan writing in a bome

paper, says :-**

Walter Hagen, the golf champion of the United States, bas just returned to his own land after a visit to this country, and I notice that in farewell interview he made these remarks: One thing that has surprised me about your English golf is that the general interest in the game is not nearly as keen as I expected to find it I agree with an excellent judge that it wants stirring up:

"I do not think there is anything like the enthusiasm for golf that we are experiencing in my country. Everybody there is eager about it. This you will find illustrated in the visit of Vardon and Ray to the States. The moment they land everybody will be rushing to book them up with engagements, and they can fill in every waking hour if they choose Golfers will fock to see them."

I think most people in this country who notice what is going on around them will agree with me that Mr. Hagen is sadly at fault in his conclusions.

THE GOLF, BOON.

The fact is that so far from our golf needing to be stirred up, it is so popular to-day that, with the present accommodation, there is very little room for any new players.

too busy playing games to have time to watch others playing.

Indeed, I hold the opinion--due, SHIP'S my plain-spoken friends tell me, to my own poor performances on court and course-that.even to watch occasionally some crack players is destructive of the true spirit of your own game.

The case was appealed to the Sheriff Principal, who had adhered to the decision of the Lower Court, and found the de- fendants entitled to the expenses of the appeal The plaintiff has cow appealed to the Court of Session.

He no longer laughed when he missed a ball or served a long series of faults Instead, he gnashed his teeth and wondered how Tilden or Johnston would have done it. And when he changed his shoes and put on his jacket at the end of the day he was no longer hot and happy but hot and irritable at thinking how far he still lagged behind the Wimbledon. standard.

It would be difficult to take a census, but it is beyond, all question that more people are playing golf in this country to-day than ever before,

But Mr. Hagen has revealed the fact, in the remarks I quoted above, that he judges enthusiasm for golf by the size of the crowds that gather to see it played.
