PASSING or CYCLING TRAINERS.

Cycling times have changed in some
ways. The circuit men do not employ
trainers now. as Of old. Once upon
time every star had 10 have a trainer.
but today the Is men OF the teams OF a
certain bicycle company have but one
trainer. Doc Morrow has charge Of
Gascoyne and Jenkins. the English
spHnters. These men are strangers in
a strange land and desire a guide. The
regular followers along the American
circuits care for themselves now. or at
least retain rubber at every meet
They have learned 10 train without a
man In charge OF them, and each man
Is responsible for himself. OF old a
rider considered It necessary TO have a
man over him in order that he might
be told 10 behave himself. but that
time has passed. The circuit chaser Is
now a man OF Independent habits, and
he takes better care OF himself than
ever before.

according to the lay Of the land. SINH
larry there Is no reason why the num-
Der OF holes should be the same. As a
matter Of fact IS hole courses are not
very numerous, most links, In fact,
having but nine holes. This number Is
ample except for clubs having an un-

SOME TECHNICAL
POINTS MADE CLEAR
How 10 Play Golf

-. Bly,.
FREDERICK r. T00MBS

T%HE ancient and royal" game
OF golf is fast becoming n pre-
dominating pastme In the
United States, but II Is a pc
culiar fact that few people
Il outside Of the ranks Of active
players have more than a
modicum Of practical knowledge Of the
principles and nomenclature Of the
Scotch importation Many persons
strictly up TO date in other respects
confess absolute ignorance as TO the ms
and outs OF golf, and their chief excuse
is that the game IL too involved with
teohnicallties." Others there are, pre-
tending to know much anent golf whose
observations convey about as much in
formation as would their views on the
manufacture of frontage de Gorgon-
cola.
Notwithstanding all that has been
said to the contrary. golf is among the
simplest OF games. Rapid progress Is
easy for the beginner and II he will

fort he will be surprised at the degree

each hand should be parallel down the
shaft. Knuckles should be invisible to
the player Special care should be
taken that the club be gripped by the
fingers and not by the palms Of the
hands, and, above all, the grasp should
be as easy and unconstrained as posi-
bic. Stiffness or awkwardness is ia
tai to accuracy In driving.

tory to the swing. This also gives an

Play begins on the teeing ground.
This is to quote from the language OF
the rules, indicated by two marks
placed In a lire at right angles to the
course, and the player Is not allowed
TO tee In front Of or on either side Of
these marks or more than two club
marks behind them. In practice the
teeing grounds are generally parallel
ogram IN whltewash marked on the
ground perhaps five or six yards In
length and two or three In breadth,
within the limits Of which the ball
must be teed. This ground is usually
level or else sloping slightly backward
from the fore.
Tees are slight pinches or pyramids
OF sand. upon which the balls are ploc-
ed preliminary to driving. Patent pa
per tees are found TO be great con-
yenience.
The first thing following the feeling
OF the ball is the determining OF where
to stand 10 strike the sphere with the
best effect Concerning this position,
or stance" as II is called, much has
been and much is still in dispute. The
best authorities agree on the position
described as follows: with the heel OF
the club, not its sole. resting on the
ground behind the ball the end Of the
shaft should reach about TO the knee
as the player stands upright The left
foot should be slightly IN advance Of
/ the ball-about four inches-and the
right foot should be about a foot ana
half distant. a little behind the left"
No arbitrary distances can be given.
for they viii differ with height and
reach.
The proper grip Of the club comes
next and should be carefully consider
ed The right hand is placed below the
LETT, the latter being placed an inch or
two below the top OF the handle. The
main idea is TO grasp the handle firmly
with the upper hand. while the lower.
or right hand, must hold II more loose.
~ and serve as a guide TO the stroke
The left hand imparts the force to the
swing. and It's hold should be Arm ana
steady. To act as a correct guide the
right hand, Of course, mus, also have
a steady hold, but Il has a freer ana
more delicate touch than that OF the
left.
The club shaft should be laid along

which are then clasped about Il with

other chance to see II the stance is cor
rect, The club head is placed behind
the ball so that It's sole rests even
iy on the ground and so that the ball
viii be struck with the clubs face
In It's downward swing DO not stand
too near or over or too far away from
the ball. Careful attention TO these d.
rectlons will prevent the errors in driv-
ing known as topping 'heeling,"
toelng" and "sclafhng"
Topping Is striking the ball above the
center instead Of hitting It full With
an iron club topping usually takes a
piece out OF the ball. Toeing. as its
name implies, is the striking OF the ball
with the toe Of the club. It's effect is
to send the ball away to the left Of the
direction 1t should take, while heeled
ball. or one hit by the heel Of the club,
would be driven to the right, sclafIing
is striking the ground under the ball,
sending the spheroid skyward.
The preliminary swing is a part OF
the addressing process. II is a waving
OF the club TO and fro over the ball to
test the suppleness OF the wrists and
arms and 10 more accurately gauge
the force necessary TO exert.
A slight body action comes naturally
with the preliminary swing. II is ac-
complIshed by letting the left heel rise
slightly from the ground. Too much
attention is frequently given to this
point II will come unaided better than
by premediiated action. The advice Of
prominent golflng expert on the sub
iect OF the body swing Is as follows.
Keep your muscles and wrists free
and easy. your arms loose. out from
the body and let your whole person
yield slightly TO the swing. Let the
heel Of your left foot rise a little of
the turf, so as not TO strain your leg.
and never exert all your strength. but
hold yourself well in hand. Finally
keep your eyes steadtastly on the bail.
This is the FIRST and last secret Of all
successful golnng."
The play through the green. zap
preaching the hole, varies according
10 the lay Of the ball and must depend
on circumstances For full shots the
position required for the drive should
be taken. For shorter approach shots
the night foot should be somewhat
nearer the bali and slightly In advance
Of the left. which should point TO the
hole, The legs should be bent slightly.
with the weight principally on the
right The grasp should be tight ana
almost equal with both hands.
