less true that most prominent play
ers today prefer the stiff shaft.
How stiff club should be is pure
ly a matter of individual prefer
ence. for the shaft which gives one
man good results may fall far short
of the requirements of another. II
you want to follow the majority you
with just the degree of Sprlnglness
which seems to suit you. Farther
than that it is impossible to be help
full in this regard.
1t is interesting to note that prac-
tically without exception the noted
length of their clubs. Not more than
about an inch of the shaft remains
unused by most noted golfers. The
average club length is three
inches, but the club length must have
some relationship to the physique OF
the individual player. 1t is interest
ing to note that the tall men do not
seem to prefer the longest clubs. nor
do short players make up for lack
of height by length of club. This
seems to verify the position l have
always taken that the club must be
perimenting every man will work out
for himself the length of shaft in
which he has confidence, which ne
feels sure of, and that should be the
standard for that man.
If you are ambitious to be an ex-
ceptionally long driver (and l want
to repeat here the caution l nave
given in previous articles that dis
lance secured at the expense of ac-
curacy costs too much) you need not
forego your ambition because you
are short. or be sure of success be-
cause you are tall. Nor will you hnd
that either long or short smart
brings the answer Neither height
nor Shaft length alone decides. 1t is
rather the proper adjustment of these
two factors, together with careful
timing and a rhythmic stroke.

That the stress placed upon physical
vigor during the war has already pro-
duced marked results among Amer1-
can youths is the opinion of Prof. II.
r. Reiter, director of physical educa-
ton at Lehigh University. based upon
the examination of $50 members OF
the freshman class at Lehigh. Prof
Reiter was an All-American halfback
in 1898 and 1899, when he played for
Princeton, and is widely known in the
field of physical education.
MANY of these young fellows were
in service abroad or in war camps In
this country" says Prof. Reiter, ana
thew plainly show the benefits OF eS-
ercise and simple diet. Our new class
is distinctly above the average OF our
usual Lehigh freshmen, an average
that was formerly creditable enough.
T am confident that this improvement
IS one of the blessings of the war. A
contributing factor is. of course, the
increased attention paid to physical
education in schools, an attention &C
celebrated by the war"
In the new system of examination
at Lehigh the strength test formerly
employed has been eliminated. "Bulg-
ing muscles are no longer regarded
as evidence OF good health" said
prof. Reiter "a certain amount of
muscle is all right. but too much. as
produced by machine exercise in gym
nasiums, is a detriment. We are en-
couraging participation in competitive
athletics, particularly out-of-door

The Long Drive.

Long driving seems to be the goal
of most golfers Whether or not
it is necessary to success is a sub
Ject 1 have written on in previous
articles and doubtless all of my read
ers know my views.
That height is a vital factor in
long driving is an idea quite gener-
ally entertaining, while there is diff
ference in opinion as to the length
and subtleness of the shaft which
should be used on the driver.
| ran across an article in an old
magazine a short time ago in which
writer had made 4 careful study
of these subjects by collecting data
from a large number of prominent
golfers. From each of them he re-
ceived information as to their height,
their preferences in shafts, the aver
age length of their drive, etc.
The inevitable conclusion from this
information is that you do not have
to be a tall man or woman to be a
long hitter He cited the case of Mr..
Heinrich Schmidt, who. though five feet
. four inches in height, reaches the
250-yard mark in his driving. And
the altitude of the other players
! ranges up to Harold Mcfarland. who
measures six feet three and half
| inches. with a drive of about 240
yards. The writer also mentions Miss
Alexa Stirling, who can by no means
be described as large, yet she aver
ages 200 yards. SO it seems pretty
conclusive that the deciding factor in
distance is not height.
The question of shaft is also an in
teresting one. Personally my driver
and brassie shafts are what would
be termed whippy. On the other hand.
Francis Ouimet's brassie is stiff. and
he is good for drive somewhere
around 24O to $50 yards. 1t is doubt

If YOU SUFFER THE TORTuRES
OF BURNING ITCHING
SKIN DISEASES
It's Possible You Can Secure Perman-
ent Relief By the Use of This
Prescription Treatment.

When your skin itches, you just must
scratch and rub, although you we'll
know that the irritation caused will
itch all the more and burn like Goals
of fire. In addition to the suffering
and torture, the glands of the in
famed skin will throw off watery
pus that makes the trouble all the
more unboarable.
MISSY and greasy external appli-
cations may stop the itching for a
while, but as this diseased condition
of the skin is usually caused by an
impure state of the blood, a real pur-
itier is necessary, for no real relief
can be expected until the blood is
thoroughly puritied-the poisons, that
ease, eliminated entirely.
AS red blood purifier. Plough's
Prescription C-2223 has been used for
years and years with great success in
the treatment of those conditions of
the skin due to an impure state of
the blood. This concentrated LIQUID
treatment contains certain medicinal
ingredients we'll known to the medi-
cal profession, which eliminate the
poisons causing the trouble, purify
bhe hloou ana make the SKIN clear and
healthy.
In taking Plough's Prescription c.
1928, it is very necessary that the
liver be active. A very mild cathar-
tie and liver stimulant is prepared es-
p2ciaity for use in connection with
the liquid prescription treatment
1929 Liver Pills. Three pills a week
are all that will be found necessary
to keep the liver and bowels in a
healthy condition, thereby assisting
the treatment in throwing of the
poisons.
Ploughs Prescription C-2223 can be
found at all good drug stores at $3.50
a bottle; the Pills, 25c package; or

THE NEW VETERAN.

A Philadelphia, nominated by
Arkansas men, has been chosen e
head the American Legion-the new
organization, which in time will en-
brace 100000 veterans.
This Philadelphia man was nomin-
ated by the Arkansas delegation
His closest competitor In the race
was man from Iowa nominated by
a New Yorker.
About the whole election there
was an absence of sectional prejudice.
From news reports, one may judge
there was little politics injected into
the race for legion offices.
This action of the legion was IN
keeping with practically every stand
it took during the recent Minnea-
polls convention. Everything the
legion did was sound. All of it's acts
were patriotic, and were actuated by
real Americanism.
Such a meeting has healthful eff.
feet. At least there is one body of
men in the United States who can
come from all sections of the cou1-
try, representing all classes and
creeds and conditions of life and act
firmly and uncompromisingly in IA
vor of those things which are best
for America.
There was no freak resolution
passed at the legion meeting; there
was no effort to create prejudice Or
to foster sectional or religious differ
ences. Politics was eschewed. 1t
was perhaps the most American
convention that has ever been held
in the United States.
