PAGE THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK E. It AY WINS TENUIS THE WANDERLUST YEARNING Captures February Cup In Final Itound wttli Robert E. Stone E. Kay Speare of Brae Burn was the winner of the February men's singles tennis tournament, defeating II. E. Stone of Chestnut Hill, 61, 6-0, 61, in the final. In the semi-final Speare won a close 46, 63, 61 match from R. A. Balfe of Brooklyn, and Stone defeated C. A. Ross of Hartford, 64, 63. In the first round Speare beat B. H. Marshall of Exmoor, 60, G 1; Stone beat Arthur Schoenfuss of Hartford, 6 3, 6 1 ; Balfe beat Herman Hegeler of Danville, 61, C 1; and Ross ad vanced on the default of Lawrence Cowing of Cincinnati, winner of the Mid winter championship, f The small entrj' was undoubtedly due to interest and preliminary practice for the Spring golf tournament. Tbe Fine Art of Putting- Although a great many authorities on golf have expressed on putting and probably will continue to do so for an indefinite period, says The Sun, there is probably no department of the game of which there is less to be learned from the study of the methods of the best per formers than there is about putting. In no other branch of the art of golf is there a more bewildering variety of stance, grip and delivery than in the apparently simple operation of putting the ball at the hole. So great indeed are the differences in the putting methods of even the best players that it can hardly be said that they have any point in common except, perhaps, the essential and universal habit of keeping the eye on the ball at the mo ment of striking. A golfer may play off the right leg or off the left or with the ball between the feet; he may grip tight or loose with either hand or with both ; he may putt with his wrists alone or with the arms alone or by a subtle combina tion of the two. He may hold the club with the hands together or separated, or at the top of the leather or at the bottom or at any. portion of the shaft; he may do any of these things and a great many more, and yet oblige his adversaries to confess that he is a first class putter. It cannot even be said that a follow through is essential, for although most of the best putters strike the ball with the follow through action there are some excellent punters, such as Taylor and Herd, on tiie other side, who chip their putts habitually. k' It is only possible to give the most general counsel as to putting," said a golfer the other day. "First, it may be said that the make and shape of the club are of no importance so long as it is well balanced. Second, always aim to get into the hole, and do not be contented with a vague try to get somewhere near it. Third, to one part of care always add two parts of cheek. U. S. II. A.
