%HICAGO, March 1o.-In an in
I teresting article on subeon-
seious golf by Henry Leach,
mention is made of the case Of good
golfer who wished to conquer q GER
tain stroke that constantly eluded
him. His plan for learning the stroke
was to have three enlarged photo
graphs made of a first class player
properly executing the stroke.
One photograph depicted the bs-
ginning, the other the top of the
swing and the third the finish. These
pictures were hung where they could
be constantly seen by the player who
wished to improve his game. He made
no conscious effort to study the pho
tographs, merely looked at them from
time to time, and his mind simply
absorbed them" Gradually he felt
the secret OF the stroke was being up-
folded to him until ct last he found
himself playing It exactly like the
man in the photograph. 1t had all
been a matter of unconscious alb
sorption and imitation.
MR., LEACH tells another interest
ANA ing story of man who had at
tanned considerable reputation for his
success In lofting stymieS. This man,
who almost never missed one of these
shots, declared that no found his pre-
vlous failures had been caused by
looking too much at the other ball
when playing, He then discovered
that he played better when he looked
at neither ball, but at the hole. But
he did not exactly believe in the sys-

Golf Game Taught by Pictures
Learners Have Many Odd Ways

TEN Of looking at the hole, felt it 20
be dangerous, in fact; so he COM
promised by looking at his own bali,
but keeping at the same time men-
tai picture of the hole with his ball
dropping into it. This plan had
worke>. like magic.
TN line with this theory is the as
1 sertion that good players are made
chiefly by imitation, and the would
be champion should spend a great
deal of time watching players OF rec
ognized ability.
No doubt there is much truth in
these theories Of subjective. or sub
conscious, golf. Take the theory IT
imitation, for instance. With children
the initiative faculty is strong and
they easily reproduce strokes. With
most people, however, this ability
weakens with time, and they deceive
themselves. It is easy to imagine
that one is playing a Warden stroke
when It is something quite different,
and much OF such self deception
would prove disastrous to ones game.
