Restoration of the stymie, banning of the tteel shaft club from tournament play, and derision to charge admissions to all championship tournaments, were among decisions announced yester day by the executive committee ol the United States Golf association. In restoring the stymie the com mittee make the American game in this respect uniform with the royal and ancient play of Great Britain. The stymie was abolished in Janu ary. 1921. Explaining its decision, the com mittee say the stymie "belong in golf" because "it represents the most scientific part of the game." In preventing the use of steel shaft clubs, the committee feels that it has nipped in the bud an instrument that the best friends of golf thought would be injurious to proficiency in play. "The committee feels that 'with the steel shaft the lack of tension caused the club to act differently from the ordinary accepted shaft, for 'with wood, the limit of distance has practically been reached.' "Furthermore." the ' committee adds, "experiments and tests show that an imperfectly played iron shot with the steel shafted weapon often pets results for he reason that the blade of the club has not turned even when entering too deeply into the turf. , "Jii other words, it is felt that in stead of making for good golf it of fers too much of an aid to imper fectly played shots." The committee is favorably con sidering replacing the present sized championship ball with a larger one of "greater durability." Leard Joins Charleston San Francisco. April 6. Bill- Leard, former Pacific Coast and Northwest league player and mana ger, left yesterday for Charleston, S, S., to play second base for that club.
