MACK Will NOT
GIVE UP PERRY
Declares Braves Didn't
Want Pitcher Until Shown
He Was Good
WILL FIG HIT CA S E

Connie Mack wants Scott Perry and
II he has his way he Is going to keep
him. The lean leader Of the Athletics
states that Perry rightfully belongs to
the Athletics and that the Braves did
not make any move until he (connie)
had shown the baseball world that
Perry was a good pitcher.
George stallinss. according to Mack,
did not offer to take another player in
place Of Perry. He states. however,
that he received . telegram from STALL
inss asking that a trade advantageous
to both be made. Mack says that he
did not know what Stallings was driv-
ing at and that he did not answer the
telegram.
Boston didn't want Perry until they
found out that there was something in
him." said Mack When he left the
team they tried their best to get the
$500 back they had paid 10 bind the
deal and had to be forced by the Ma
tional Commission to make good.
When we were on the training trip
George Stallings sat In the grapdstan nd
at Jacksonville one day and watched
US play. He saw Perry and all the
players recognized him, but he didn't
want him them. In fact, the Boston
team figured he was valueless until he
pitched a couple of great games for US
and started to show real merit Even
then their attention had to be called to
the fact that they had some sort of
string on him before they put in a bid
for his services,
The injustice of their attempt to re-
gain him and Of the verdict of the Ma
tional Commission is that they waited
until he had been playing with US for
six weeks before they said thing, and
then they tried to get him.
I'm rendering his verdict there is only
one thing that Garry Hermann. chair
man Of the National Commission, seems
to be able to see and 1t is that Boston
still had thirteen days OF. Perry's serv-
ices coming to them under the agree
ment by which they purchased him from
Atlanta. don't think Boston will have
q chance from either a legal standpoint
or from the side of justice, and l am
going to fight this thing right through
the courts"

in GOLF
ENUMERATED
Overs winging, Using
Wrong Club and Palm.
Gripping Are Common
r E L A TED BY EVANS
By CHARLES (CHICK EVANS, JR

BY CHARLES (CHICK) EVANS, JR.
1t Is supposed that the commonest
Of all the errors so painfully common
to golf is failing to keep ones eyes on
the ball. or the equivalent, moving ones
head in the act of making a stroke
Important as these admonitions may be-
there are numerous other things to be
avoided in the game Of golf. Indeed.
following every direction for playing a
shot might be table setting forth the
errors to be avoided in the making of
that particular shot. for it is not suffi-
cient to tell man what to do. He must
also be told what he must not do.
A very common error is selecting the
wrong club for the work 1t is expected
to do. 1t is generally believed that each
club works normally within a certain
range, and we speak Of a mashie dis
tance and SO on. Use a proper club for
the proper work. The driver is for the
greatest distance. the brassie next and
the irons go down gradually diminish
Ing scale. Sometimes the player can
manage to make a short-distance club
do long-distance work, but It is a self
deceptive habit and not at all to be
advised.
A Common Fault
An only too common fault in making
a golf swing is swinging the body instead
Of the club. The body should be turned
at the waist and the clubhead should be
swung.
Another very common error is dipping
the clubhead below the shoulders that
is overswinging. Hitting the ball pre-
maturely before we are comfortably set,
Is another mistake we are likely to
make.
Another thing to avoid is playing too
much on the left foot, and care must be
taken not to crouch over the ball too
much. OF course. one must be somewhat
bent. but 1t is case in which judgment
must be used. Gripping the club in the
palms instead of the fingers consider
very serious mistake, for golf is a
game of touch. and that sense lies in the
fingers; 1t Is an extremely difficult thing
to place a shot with a palm grip.
Errors Enumerated
My idea of teaching a player would
be to give him large, general ideas, and
then let him practice and let him adapt
them to his individual peculiarities The
commonest errors are the violation of
the general or the fundamental idea of
golf stroke. / was watching a man
swing the other day and the arc
described by his club was impossible
from a golfng standpoint. The up
stroke and downstroke should be along
the same lines, at least. for the sake of
smoothness.
A thing for every golfer to avoid as
he would the plague is tention. Any
stiffness is bounded to be disastrous, for
1t 10 impossible to strike the crisp blow
with tight muscles In the lexicon of
golfers the word relax should be written
over and over again In shining letters.
Football is 4 hEhting game with tense
muscles; golf IL a game of Individual
skill. demanding relaxed muscles and
rhythmic movements.

ston played against Oswald Kirkby and
John G. Anderson for the Red Cross
The match will begin at 8 o'clock and
the two O'Clock train on the Reading
will stop at Pine Valley station and the
8 O'Clock train from Atlantic City will
stop there about 6:45. For those who
60 down earlier there will be luncheon
served.
Red Cross at Pine Valley
Motorists can reach the course by
way of the White Horse pike and there
will be signs posted on the road leav-
ing the pike for Pine Valley. The trip
can be made from this city in less thai
an hour and the roads are good all the
way.
Amateur and professional players and
architects who build golf courses say
that Pine Valley Is one Of the finest
golf courses in the world and the sur-
roundings are so beautiful that those
who 90 there for the match will have a
treat There are no parallel holes, SO
that it is impossible to slice or pull on
to another hole. The average carry from
tee to fairway is 145 yards and in be-
tween there Is nothing but rough ground
The green's are large and undulating !:
there are no blind approaches and every
bit Of trouble Is plainly visible on the
approach shot.
Nothing Like 1t Anywhere
There are no finer one-shotters than
the third, fifth and tenth. The two
shooters are beyond comparison and the
only three-shotter. the seventh, Is an
excellent hole, and possibly the largest
bunker In the country has to be crossed
after the tee shot. No two holes run in
the same direction and the wind on no
two holes blows from the same direction
The greens are beauties and the turf on
the fairways Is coming along finely. II
Is the best test of golf In the country
and 1t will be interesting to note just
what these four experts will play 1t in.
The same quartet will play next Satur-
day over the east course Of the Merton
Cricket Club and the proceeds will also
go to the Red Cross. All four are
familiar with the east course. all but
Travers having played on 1t at the time
of the national amateur championship.
and Jerry is familiar with 1t as well,
having played there in the Harold A.
