Murder is no crime. in the eyes OF
Islam, when the slayer is a Moslem and
his victim an Unbeliever-that is TO say,
Christian, Jew, Parsee. or Buddh-
list This doctrine, familiar to those
who have lived for any length of time in
Mahometan countries independent of
foreign control but which has hitherto
been generally ignored, not only here in
the United States and in Western
Europe, but even in British India and in
Egypt, has been brought into prominence
within the last two weeks by the refusal
of the Grand Mufti at Cairo to approve
the capital sentence passed upon War
dani, the assassin of Prime Minister
Boutros Pacha, on the ground that a
Moslem cannot be put to death for kill
ing a Christian.
The Grand Mufti also gave two other
reasons for his attitude both of them Of
a childish character. One of them was
TO the effect that there is no mention of
revolvers in the Koran, or in that Cheriat
law which is based on the Holy Writ of
Islam-the Cheriat dating back to the
eighth century-and consequently that
any Moslem making use of a revolver to
wound or murder is guiltless of any
crime known to the sacred law. The
third argument of the Grand Mufti was
that the relatives of Boutros Pacha had
failed to appear at the trial as prose-
cutors
Dismissing the two latter reasons as
puerile, the first of the three put for
ward by the Grand Mufti in behalf OF
his refusal TO sanction the sentence
passed by the native courts at Cairo
upon Wardani- is one that invites very
serious consideration. For the Grand
Mufti is the divine whose interpretations
of Koranic and Cheriat law. as applied
TO the questions of the day. are final.

thority the temporal rulers of the coun-

While every phase of the game OF golf is
gone into more or less r1inutely by the

probably has had and will continue to
claim more than its share Of attention.

Unouestionably. this IS one of the most
important of the many perplexing golf
problems, and one Of the foremost Of the
amsteurs in this country does not hesitate
to,ssy that on the proper grip depends the
success or failure Of the golfer Attention
is called TO the fact that Walter J. Travis,
former national and metropolitan champion,
he's q peculiarity in his grip in that he
holds the club with the hands turned so far
around that the palms are facing upward.
Yet, On the other hand. several professionals
recommend the habit OF keeping the hands
well over the shaft, with the palms facing
downward. This IS popularity supposed TO

players who slice just as valiantly with

nearly horizontal as the pace is increased
The golf club has a similar tendency to
swing out when it is not grasped with suf-
ficient frmness to hold it on its proper
track. 1 rather think it is for this reason
that golfers often display a tendency to
pull their shots when tired out toward the
end of a days sport. The grip should al
ways be reasonably tight to keep the club
steady.
The club ought to swing from the players
shoulders; there should be no obvious break
in the unity of the motion at the point
where the human part of the pendulum
the arm-ends and the clue begins. This
unity is much more likely - be preserved
when the club is hung lightly in the grip
of the fingers, lying across their roots,
than when the club is grasped in the palm
of the hand. Moreover, when the shaft is
held in the palms. there is greater encour-
agenent for the player to force with one
hand or the other
The position of the thumbs is a vexed
question. The orthodox plan is. of course.
TO have them across the shaft, and some
believe that this affords the hest chance
of getting free and even swing. On the
other hand, playing with the thumbs held
down the shaft makes 1t easier for the
unpra actised golfer TO aim with accuracy,
and it also prevents the tendency to let the
club swing out Possibly. too. it is of
sistanoe in keeping the club head square to
the line. so that there is less chance of
a pull or a slice.
The decision regarding the advantage, or
otherwise. of employing an overlapping or
interlocking grip must be made by each
player for himself. One word OF warning
may be given. however, for to be used
successfully these grips require that the
fingers should not be short and that they
should be fairly strong besides. Otherwise
such grips are better let alone.

of the FL Azhar University extends
