ODD DEVICES ARE USED
TO BETTER GOLF GAME
Players Sometimes Resort to Freak
ish Contrivances in Effort to
Lower Score.

The devices to which golfers are
sometimes put to improve their game
are often weird and wonderful Those
made in connection with the fetish that
the head must not be moved while the
stroke is being made are perhaps the
most peculiar of all. Some years ago
an eastern player whose head would
not keep still devised a head rest SINH
lar to those used by photographers, and
the arrangement did keep his head still.
but he couldn't hit the ball One of the
sporting goods houses gets out leath-

member straight
Probably one of the oldest of these
devices was the one invented a short
ington Golf and Country Club. He had
for quite time had trouble keeping
his eyes on the ball, and one day a
fellow member noticed piece of white
paper bearing the letter 2 stuck in the
toe of his golf shoe. On being asked
why it was there Writ replied: The
last letter in the alphabet is the letter
2, and the last thing I try to think of
as hit the ball is to keep my eyes on
that letter" But these devices for
keeping the eye down are all beside the
mark. There is no question but that
the head must be kept still, but the ac-

not necessary. In fact, several profess

not sway without a body sway, and the
latter is necessarily fatal to clean hit
