, eye down and don't snap your follow
through too quickly.
In putting today I tried out two lit
tie things, small indeed, but well
worth remembering. The first was
the locating of a spot on the very
butt of the ball, and aiming to hit
that. 1t was effective. The other
thing was to follow through. with a
low putter head, along the imaginary
line instead of putting up.
Yesterday my mashie mad seemed
particularly heavy and uncomforta-
BILE. but with an exercise OF Will power
practiced straight through my
schedule. Today the moment l
grasped my mashie it fitted rlgnt INTO
my hands: it felt good and comforta-
bit and balanced. and / knew from
experience that this was the result
of careful, intelligent practice the Gay
before. It meant that | was pegln-
ming to feel at home with my ciuD.
A player learns to love ms ciuos
because they feel good to him' ana
If practice does nothing else 1t estao-
fishes this feeling of companlonsnip-
it enables a player to learn the true
balances of his clubs, and this is eA-
tremely important knowledge 10 &C

Doesn't Work on All Shots.

On the shorter mashie shots found
the short, choppy, follow through was
all right, but in the longer shots II
gave a poor fight, and therefore on
these I let the clubhead follow well
up and through, as it were. Then
imagined my clubhead touching the
ground on a three or four inch line
beginning with the ball, and so !
tried to snap the ball of the ground
there.
these three or four inches when the
clubhead should be travelling on that
straight line, was done for. for
either sliced or pulled. To get the
proper throw of the clubhead you
must have loose. or reckless" wrists.

ers, Johnny Watson and Walter Au-
Aderson, were forced into early retire
ment, Connie Mack finally dug up

THE Yankee assault, but by that time
New Y ork had enough runs to win tho
game. The local players took the de-
Gliding tilt of their three game series
with the Athletics by a score of 5

Sammy Wick, the young Tennessee
glugger, opened on Watson in the first
inning by lifting the ball into the left
held bleaChers for Il homo run. An
other run was jolted out of Johnny
before the side was out, and in the
second session he was replaced by
Anderson, a. left handler. Anderson
fingered for four innings in which the
Yanks prodded him for seven hits and
three runs. The damage would have
been greater had not Wick left a, full
house in the sixth.
Geary was Mack's third guess, and
he proved 9 vast improvement over
his predecessors, but Connie called on
him too late. In Geary's three innings
