ROSS OFFERS SOLUTION OF STYMIE PROBLEM Silas H. Strawn of Chicago, presi dent of the United States Golf Associa tion in 1911 and 1912, will present at the annual meeting of the United States Golf Association in Chicago on Janu ary 14, a plan of Donald J. Boss, which Mr. Strawn considers Avould be a fine i4-;r nf Vio stvmie problem. The nuiuiivu j x Stymie will be given full discussion at the meeting. Since the United States Golf Associa tion modified the stymie so that it is in effect only when a player lays himself c stymie on the green, there has been much misunderstanding and general dia satisfaction with the rule and Mr. Eoss after making practical tests and giving much study to the subject, has devised 9 plan which he considers will retain the stymie and eliminate the only fault that can be found with it. Mr. Ross outlined his plan to Mr Strawn here this week, as folloAvs: "The solution of the problem, which I have arrived at after making practical tests in which experts as well as aver fge amateurs have taken part, is to in urease the distance when a stymie is ;n effect from the six inches between ball and ball (the St. Andrews rule formerly used in the United States) to two feet between the near ball and the ,lcle, and two feet between ball and ball. "The most serious objection to the stymie is that it occasionally brings y bout an impossible shot that no amount cf skill can overcome. There should not be an impossible shot in golf. If the two-foot rule were in effect it would eliminate the impossible shots, for when the near ball is at least two feet from the cup ami the stymied ball at least two feet from the near ball, it is always pos sible to negotiate the stymie by pitching over the near ball or curving around it. "The distance of six inches between balls is arbitrary and there is no reason for it; whereas the distance of two feet is based on the possibilities of the game and is sound from every point of view. The compromise we hoav have in the stymie has caused more misunderstand ing than any rule ever written into the rules of golf it will never be satis lactory because the golfing public is opposed to it." Mr. Eoss stated that he had gone on putting greens with professionals and amateurs and tried various stymie shots with these players at distances from one to a dozen feet and found' that when the near ball was two feet from he hole and the other ball two feet from the near ball, such stymies could be ne gotiated by skillful shots. He consid ers that legitiniAte,,stiies ;reate in. teresting a shot as there is in golf. Mr. Eoss ' recalls that before the stymie was practically abolished in the United States . players used to obtain much pleasure from practicing this shot and that many became so expert they plllp If j v FOR HEALTH The Perfect Table Water For over half a century America! leading Natural Mineral Water.
