Jo;e Campos, one of the leading!
newspaper men of Mexico, who fre
nuently pome 'o this country on im-
pbrtant errands for his country, re
cently stated that Mexico would never
adopt baseball because the American

He wrote a specie! (tory of the Rame;

there In the past decade,

SABE" SPIKES.
For Instance. Campee falls to com
prehend whv baseball players wear
spikes on the soles of their shoes. He
cannot believe they are placed there
to make the footing certain, and per
sists in the belief that In case a rum
pus comes along during the course of
a game, the player can use the spikes
in self defense, Inflicting "gb wounds
on the legs and feet of an adversary.

Another feature that awes him Is I
the manner In which the spectators;

ARGUE SIZE AND
mm ball
English and American Golfers.
Discourse on Pellet used
in Ancient Game
American and British golfers are
now in the throes of a hectic discus
sion over tho hall question. The size
und weight of the golf ball has formed
the basis of many near terrific argu
ments, and on several occasions these
oontrovr rsles havo menaced the nn
( lent ami honorable gnrae when the
factions promised to line up for a
fight to a finish.
England is now sowing the seed of
further controversy in the matter by
tiylng to arrive at some conclusion
upon which a normal ball can be man
ufactured. American golfers have not
gotten Into the argument ns an or
ganization ns yet. the feeling on this
sido being one of satisfaction that the
ball Is all right but mertcan courses
are getting to be all wrong.
The tendency in American course
construction during the past lew years
has been toward long distances be
tween holes, with an added tendency
toward neglecting the h.i7iids. This
condition, according to some of the
leading eastern players, has made it
appear that the ball Is wrong becauso
of the failure of the best drivers to
lln the holes In what they hellee
tho distances should be played in
Those of the Yankee plavor.; who
r i . dared t" again dip Into the ball
controversy have come to the front
and declared for shorter distances be
tween hole., with an increase In the
number and character of the hazards.)
The usual method of calculation Is two I
putts per greon. which constitutes 40 J
per cent of the round and this argu
ment does not offer assistance to
those who are clatnorinjr for a livelier
ball. A lively ball does not save putts.
