It is Interesting to compare the number of golf courses In Great Britain with the number found In this country. According to the bul letin of the green section of the United States Golf association, there Is a known total of 1,114 golf courses in this country, not Including nine hole courses, estimated at 1.0 odd. at summer resorts and winter hotels. The approximate number of ll-hole courses Is (DO.

IS; Tennessee, 14 and Mississippi, 17,, The development of golf courses in the western -and southern has been more rapid In ths paat 10 years than In tile east ern states. The game haa only been played In thia country for about SO years while in Great Britain the first club was-established in 101. There has been no incident in any of the Important gamea during the past season which furnishes grounds for unfavorable comment. In spite of the Immense crowds which have attended -the gamea and the country wide interest they have aroused. there haa been no interference of any kind with the routine of academic activities. There can be no objection to the monetary returns because the football season has p. seed ths ath letic establishmentsof the various institutions on a firm financial basis. Such sports as track athletics and rowing will benefit materially be cause of the big football season just closed. Ths standardisation of the game haa brought remarkable reaulta No season has shown the advisability of the change in rulee as this .past season. The work of a football eleven Is no longer judged by the else of the student body. The smaller colleges have been able under the open game to develop elevens which have been a match for--the larger Institutions. Suggestions will be made at the next meeting of ths rales committee for chsnges In the code, but any move of this kind is expected to meet with strong opposition.

Whenever a golfer's game goes bsd he usually falls back upon the excuse that he is "overgolfed. A good many golfers really believe It. and If enough people believe a thing It la usually taken for granted. Tne theory, however, haa been exploded often. Take the English profes sionals for example Vardon and Ray and Duncan and Mitchell:! They played matches nearly every day dur ing visits to this country and at ths end of the tour they were playing just as well as when they started. Golfers of the north have already atarted to flock southward. The pro fessions will spend the winter cavorting on the eoursea below the Messrs. Mason and Dixon line. In the paat golfers believed that playing golf summer and winter waa too much. Last winter Gene Saraxan ho now holds most of ths golf titles In sight, administered a hard bump to the "overgolfed" theory. He played every day and was out on the links practicing shots when he wasn't playing In a tournament The more Saraxan played the better he became. When the southern season waa over he went north and what he accomplished after a winter's golf in the south Is a matter of golf his tory. Presumably the only way to be a high class golfer Is to play from sunrise to sunset. In the course of a plea for more physical education In colleges, ss distinguishes from specialised ath letics, made to the freahmen class at Trinity college. Hartford. Conn.. rrof. Odell Shepard. head of the English department, says that Americans. Instead of being a nation of athletes, take as their favorite sport sitting on the bleachers and throwing pop bottles at the umpire. "One of the eurlsus Ideas we Americana have of ourselves is that we are a nation of sportsmen, highly developed musculsrly, physically At when aa a matter of fact our favorite national sport Is. sitting on the bleachers and tossing pop bottles at the umpire." i American college students think of themselves as deeply Interested In sports. As a matter of fact, not one In ten of them learna In college to box. to wrestle, to run a mile, even to walk. Our colleges turn out ysar ly 10.000 men with hollow chests. narrow ahgjilders.- humped backs, wsbbly legs and flat feet and there Is never a protest mde. Hsve they not psised all their examinations?" Continuing In his long address to the clsss the professor said, 'The assumption Is thst they are equipped ior lire. For death rather. But when It Is a question not of life but of the killing of other men. when we are recruiting an army, then out iof this nation of athletes we reject I somewhere near one In three for physical reaaona alone. Our educa tion will get on the right track when we think of athletics ss not a mere exciting sideshow but ss one of the two equally Important rings In the circus tent?' There has been much discussion about what the Harvard system con sists of. Dudley Dean, the Old Crimson tiuarterback. says It consists or common sense. Now comes Chet Laroche, Yale'a freshman roach and a quarterback of the Ell 1518 eleven, who points out that Harvard got Its system from Tale. "No one deniea." ssys the Yale coach, "that they studied our methods even to the point of buying shoes snd headgear from the same manufacturers, and to atudy their methods la to build better ones. If we give our men aa much Information as Harvsrd men receive, they will win. And It can be done next season." This would seem like Isylng a bit too much stress on the Importance of shoes. lt was not the shoes thst helped Harvard win, but the feet In the shoes. And as for saying that ths headgear had anything to do with Harvard'a successful system, Mr. Laroche, as well aa every one else knows thst a mere headgear Isn't much good unless there is a good bean under It.

With the re-election of President Thos.

President Hlckey was re-elected without a dissenting vote, and John W. Norton, president of the St. Paul club, waa unanimously re-elected vice-president. After the election, the club owners voted to raise the leaasM waiver price from JS.000 to $1,000. with the privilege of recall withdrawn and also decided to buy the umpires' uniforms m trie future. The schedule problem probably will be decided when ths club owners convene agsln tomorrow.

Milwaukee, St Paul and Minneapolis drew 1.000,000 while Kansas City, which finished second, led the league in attendance with 109,000. This was the first time that a club In ths association drew above 100,000. Major league owners and managers mingled with the minors all day In search of new talent, but no deals were made. There Is possibility of a deal Involving Catcher Glenn Myatt, of the Milwaukee club, who la re garded aa the beat prospect since the discovery of Ray Schalk, the White Sox star.
