This may sound complex and COM

II is merely a matter Of eliminating,

THE CONTROLLING FEATURE

The controlling impetus IN any mus
cular activity comes from the mind, or
tho brain. The mind or the brain di-
rccts--and the muscle obeys, or tries
TO obey. At least, the muscle responds
in that direction. In the same way the
mind or brain controls the eye, largely,
If not completely.
Which brings US up to a concrete
Illustration Of the case. The golfer
comes up TO play a lSO-yard pitch to
the green for his second shot few
Yards this side of the green there turks
r deep, abysmal looking pit which the
golfer knows from past experience and
suffering is rcpleto with trouble.
This trap, just at that moment, is
tho main thing in his existence. His
mental power is all focused upon that
trap.
As he takes his stance he may be
looking at the ball but he is still think
ing about that grotto ahead.
Tho result is that his mind. concen-
trated upon the pit, takes charge OF
tho eye during the process of the
swing. and the head is Immediately
lifted

Spirited Debate Prom
ised for Gathering
Next Month
BY FRED HAWTHORNE

Which side is going 20 win at the an
nual meeting Of the United States Ma
iional Lawn Tennis Association at the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel on February 2,
the "insurgents" or the conservatives?
VIII a compromise be effected when 1t
comes 20 framing new amateur rules,
and if either side wins a decisive vic
tory what will be the effect on Ameri-
can lawn tennis?
These arc some Of the questions that
have been asked Of US in the last few
weeks, and they arc questions vitality
interesting to every lover and follower
Of tho great game. We wish that with
tho wisdom and certainty of the sootb-
saver, we could look ahead. beyond and
through the clouds that obscure the
issues at present But, being merely
human. the best we can do is guess at
the future. with no assurance that our
efforts will be any better than, If as
good as. somebody elso's. With that
understanding, we proceed along the
perilous path.
It Is particularly difficult TO forecast
the result Of the impending battle of
delegates at the Waldorf. for the forces
are so widely distributed and there
seems such a divergence of opinion as
regards the rights of the amateur In
lawn tennis. The line of demarcstion
between the two camps is sharply
enough defined.
The Pacific States Association be-
lieves that player has as much right
20 take up the sporting goods business
as any other means of livelihood, and
that the national association has no
right to attempt TO control his private
action in such matters.
Coasters Have Backing
Tho adherents of such view outside
81 the Pacific States are said to be
many, but they arc so thoroughly scat
tered that their strength Is diflcult to
analvze. II is fairly certain that II the
oninion Of the "man in the street
could be accurately weighed the ma
ioritv i'm favor Of an easy hand IN

But the "msn i'm the street Is not
going TO settle the questions At issue
between the two factions at next
months meeting. That is going TO be
done by the delegates all Of whom have
a more or less wide acquaintance with
lawn tennis and the conditions under
which il is played in this country.
Each side laws claim TO certain sec
tions of the country, when it comes to
> matter Of counting the delegates en-
listed within the ranks, but probably
neither side knows actually just how
the delegates arc going TO vote. II
seems to us that to-day, At least, the
Pacific States body possesses fully as
much strength As the I. S. n l.. 7. A.,
If not more. Whether IL will be able
70 hold that strength and to WELD 1T
unimpaired on the night OF the meet
ing is another question.
For Strict Amateurism

engages IN the sporting goods business,

except that just 81 inch or two beyond
the ball, he could then easily enough
put his mind on the ball exclusively.
If there were 10 bunkers or bodies of
water ahead 10 think about, he would
then rarely look up.
The same holds true for putting.
Most golfers are thinking not about
hitting the ball on the green but
about the hole. Naturally their heads
come Up for a peek at the hole before
their club head reaches the ball. And
as the head comes up the stroke is
spoiled They haven't kept their eye
on the ball. Of course. But the main
weakness here was not in keeping their
